Khushi left with Lavanya giggling, after glancing at Arnav disappointed face.

Arnav smirked as he looked at her, he also went to the hall.

Nani went running to him: Arnav beta it's your brother's wedding, where do you disappear every now and then?

Arnav: Nani I'm here only..

Nani smiled: Will you dance for your brother?

Arnav frowned: No way Nani!!

Khushi came to them: Nani don't worry, I'm here na.. I will make him dance..

Nani left smiling, Khushi smirked at Arnav: If you dance, I will confess Arnav!! Now it's your choice..

Arnav pouted: This is not fair!!

Khushi giggled: Please it's for Akash and Payal..we have to dance..

Arnav nodded and pulled her by her waist, he whispered in her ear with his husky voice: After the dance, I will get to hear I love you from you..

Khushi closed her eyes, and nodded slowly..

Nikhil behind a pillar smirked: And tomorrow..bang bang!!

After a couple of performances by Meera, Ayan, Lavanya, and the elders, Khushi and Arnav finished the sangeet with their dance on Gerua song.

*****************************

Khushi's room:

" I..love..you" Khushi said blushing, Arnav brushed his lips with hers. Khushi looked at him shocked: What are you doing Arnav?? Someone will come here..

Arnav: No one will come..

Khushi smiled shyly, she hugged him tightly to hide her shy face.

Arnav caressed her waist: Very soon we will also be in Akash and Payal bhabhi's place.

Khushi nodded: I'm waiting eagerly for that day Arnav..

Arnav kissed her earlobe: This day will come soon Khushi..

Khushi bit her lips: Go to your room Arnav..

Arnav smirked: Why?

Khushi smiled and pushed him outside: Just gooo..

Arnav walked to his room smiling.

****************************

Wedding day:

Today was the big day for Akash and Payal.

In her room, she was being dressed by her mother and friends.

Meera: Finally you will join our crazy family now..

Payal smiled: You're from the boy's side, Akash will beat you if he gets to know you here!!

Meera giggled: You're right!! I will get going.. I just wanted to see how the bride is looking!!

Payal blushed: And how am I looking?

Meera: Perfect!! You're looking gorgeous Bhabhi..

Meera left running, outside.

Arnav found her on the way: Rabbit..

Meera nodded: Everything is like what we planned Monkey.. Di is already in the terrace.

Arnav: Okay..nothing should happen to her Rabbit..

Meera: Nothing will happen to her Arnav, trust Ayan..he will catch Di at the right moment.

Khushi came running to them: Arnav..Dev is going to the terrace now, I send him a letter and asked a servant to give it to him.

Arnav: Okay let's go there too.

*****************************

Arnav, Khushi and Meera followed Dev to the terrace.

The three hid behind a pillar.

Anjali smiled seeing him: Papa you called me here..

Dev nodded sideways: No dear, you're the only one who called me here..

Anjali frowned: No a little boy told me you called me..

Dev: But..no..a servant gave me a letter..

Anjali: Maybe someone played a prank on us..

Dev nodded: Yeah, these kids nowadays!!

Anjali smiled.

Ayan came to the terrace, he showed thumbs up to Arnav, Khushi and Meera then walked near Anjali and Dev.

Ayan: I called you both here..

Anjali: Ayan tum. But why?

Ayan: Di didn't you want a way to convince Arnav bhai to accept Dev uncle?

Anjali nodded: Haan..

Ayan smiled: I have an idea to do so..

Anjali: No Ayan, let it be.. Chote doesn't want it, and neither I want to force him anymore, he is hurt..

Dev looked at Anjali angrily, Ayan pushed Anjali trying to convince her: Di please..

While convincing her, he pushed her purposely off the terrace.

" Anjaliiiiii.." Dev shouted shocked.

" Ohh nooo.. Diiiiii..." Ayan faked that he was crying.

Arnav gulped scared, he wanted to save his Di, but Khushi held his hand: Arnav di is fine..

Meera: Monkey don't worry.. Ayan attached a rope on Di's waist before making Di fall off the terrace, she will not fall..

Anjali was shocked, she noticed a rope in her saree, that was not letting her fall, she looked confused, if Ayan wanted her to fall why did he save her first?

Ayan looked at Dev: Help Dii..uncle.. Please do something..catch her..Di will

die.. Please..

Dev: Let her die then.. Why should I risk my life to save hers??

Anjali heard what her father said, she was badly hurt. Arnav was right, this man never changed, he was still the same selfish person.

Dev went running from there, if Anjali dies when he was there people would blame him, so he thought to save his life first.

Arnav went running to Ayan, who was pulling the rope to help Anjali.

Arnav extended his hand to Anjali, she held his hand and he pushed her in, both fell on the floor.

Arnav caressed her hair: Tum teek ho Di?

Anjali nodded crying: I'm fine Chote.. You did this to show me his real face?

Arnav nodded: I'm sorry, I had no other way to show you his real face.. See when you were in danger, he left you Di..this is his truth..

Anjali hugged him crying heavily: Why Chote?? Why don't we get the love from our parents? Why is papa such an evil man? Why doesn't he love us??

Arnav: Shh Di..we don't need his fake love, we have our family with us.. We are happy with mama, mami, Nani, Akash..sab.. Di everyone here loves us..please Di forget that man..

Anjali nodded: You're right Chote.. I was blind who couldn't see Pa..Dev Malik true face..

Shyam came running to Anjali, he kissed her all over her face: Are you alright?

Anjali smiled with his care: I'm fine..it was a quite cool experience to stay in air for sometime!!

Everyone laughed. Arnav hugged Khushi and Meera: Thank you for helping me.

Ayan pouted: You guys could hug me too.. I did the most difficult part..

Arnav smiled and pulled Ayan into a tight hug: Thank you Ayuuu..

*****************************

It was night time, Akash was waiting for his bride in mandaap, Arnav was busy attenting the guests.

Dev was shocked when he saw Anjali all fit and fine: Anjali tum..

Anjali smiled: I'm fine and alive Dev Malik..

Dev: Dear it's not what you think. I went running to call for help..

Anjali: Seriously stop lying to me.. And one more thing, just go away from this place now, take your nephew with you too.

Arnav clenched his fist seeing his Di talking with Dev.

Arnav walked to them: What do you want? Why are you behind my sister Dev?

Dev: Anjali please trust me..

Anjali: I said out of this place right now!!!!

Arnav smirked looking at Dev: You lost dear Daddy.. I won..

Dev glared at Arnav: This is not right..

Arnav called the guards to throw him out of the place: Then go and figure out what's right, out of here!!

The guard took him forcefully out of the hotel.

Dev shouted smiling: You didn't win yet Arnav..this game will be finished by Nikhil only..

Arnav frowned looking at him: Di did you saw Nikhil somewhere?

Anjali worried: Don't ask about him Chote.. Where is Khushi?

Arnav looked at her shocked, he went running to Khushi's room where he last saw her.

And his biggest fear happened, she wasn't there anymore.

Arnav went downstairs running, he started to look for her around the hall the marriage was happening, but didn't find her.

" Chote.." Anjali came to him.

" He took her Di.. Nikhil kidnapped Khushi.." his eyes were burning in anger as well as fear for her, what will Nikhil do to her now.

" No..no.. I have to save Khushi Di.. I have to find her.." Arnav mumbled, confused what to do, where to find her...

Akash noticed Arnav and Anjali worried faces.

He went to them, Akash: Is everything alright?

Anjali nodded sideways: Nikhil kidnapped Khushi.

Akash shocked: What? When did this happen? Khushi was with us.. How dare he?

Arnav cried: It's my fault.. I promised to her that I wouldn't let Nikhil come near her, still I let that happen..

Akash hugged Arnav tightly: Don't cry Arnav. It's not your fault.. We will find Khushi..

Arnav: If anything happens to her, I will die..

Anjali cried seeing the state of her brother.

Soon the news of Khushi kidnapped reached to all the family.

*****************************

" Nikhil don't come near me.." Khushi cried stepping backwards.

" Oh baby.. You don't know how much I waited for this day. Today you will become fully mine" Nikhil stare at her shamelessly.

" You're so beautiful Khushi..just like this moon that is adorning our night.." Nikhil laughed staring outside the hut..

" Aaj tum sirf meri hoo..wow.." Nikhil smiled and walked near Khushi.

" I said don't come to me.." Khushi shouted getting scared of his looks.

" Dekho Nikhil please let me go.. What wrong did I to you? Why are you being so bad with me?" Khushi cried, she knelt down begging him to let her go.

" Ohh my baby don't cry na.. I can't see you crying.. But you see this is the plan, today you and me will get close, tomorrow our baby will come.. as I'm poor now, your lover will feel sorry for you then, he will make sure you get all the

happiness in the world, so what will he do? Transfer all his property to me and Dev uncle, so that I can take care of you and our cute little baby..hain na? How's

my plan? Superb right? " Nikhil cupped her face smiling.

" You have gone mad.. This will never happen" Khushi spit out on his face.

Nikhil shut his eyes and wiped his cheek: Now you're provoking me Khushi..

Khushi: Don't touch me.. If Arnav gets to know about you, he will kill you Nikhil.. I'm warning you already, leave me alone..

Nikhil laughed laying on the floor near Khushi: What will he do? Where will he find you in this jungle? By the time he reaches here, you would be mine.. Samjhi tum?

Khushi took this opportunity that he was on the floor and stood up quickly, she tried to run out of the hut.

Nikhil held her leg smiling, with his sudden force on her leg, she fell on the floor and got hurt badly on her elbow.

" Aaahh.." Khushi cried in pain.

" Mat karo aisa.. You will get hurt only.. behave like Payal, a shy bride.. I promise I won't hurt you then.." he smiled and caressed her elbow.

Khushi cried more, and shoved his hand angrily: Leave meeeee... You will not touch me.. Arnav's right I will never give you.. Never..did you hear? Never... I

will die, but will not give my love to you..

Nikhil smirked: Let's see!!
