First of all.. A very Happy Anniversary to Pashmeen and Barun.. May they have a long and joyful togetherness..

YES.. YES I LEFT YOU FOR THEM.. YOUR KIDS.. MR. RAIZADA.. Khushi finally revealed her reason for leaving him which in a way he had already come to know..

Why Dammit? How dare you? You chose them over me.. Arnav asked with anger and hurt yet again eyeing the triplets but this time with disgust..

Don't eyes my kids like that Mr. Raizada.. If you got any problem with us then you may leave.. Khushi said still maintaining her calm composure.. Had it been anyone else eyeing her kids like this.. She would have teached that person in the better way but he was their father.. And that's why it hurted the most to find that look in his eyes..

Arnav looked at her with shock.. He was already angry and she was being no help instead was instigating him more..

Khushi.. Dare you talk to me in this tone..
Nobody.. Just nobody talks with me with such attitude.. He said in a warning tone while gritting his teeth..

Then help yourself and get yourself out of here.. She spat instantly..

That was more than enough for Arnav.. He turned around and picking up the vases threw them on the floor.. Creating panic all over to the kids..

No doubt they were ASR's kids.. Tough like him..but they were kids of less than 2 years.. They started crying aloud and Khushi who was herself terrified by his act and this time infront of kids..  gained her senses back and ran towards them.. The babies hid themselves in her mother's warmth and it irked their father more.. But somehow he composed himself..

Are they all.. All your.. Our kids? He asked little hesitant seeing them horrified.. He realised that his behaviour was indeed cruel for the kids..

Khushi eyed him accusingly.. And then averted her eyes.. What kind of question is he even asking?  Can't he see they are triplets?  Or is he accusing her? She felt cheap and couldn't help but voice out her thoughts-

Can't you see they are triplets Mr. Raizada?
Or do you.. Do you doubt.. Before she could complete Arnav intervened..

Stop it Dammit.. I never said that.. He said closing his eyes in regret for asking a question like that at first place..

He opened his eyes and turning towards her started-

Its just that.. Ugh.. Its just that..
You tell me.. Who gives birth to three kids at a time?
Are you mad Khushi? Tell me already..

Khushi couldn't widen her eyes more than she already had done.. This was beyond any logic.. Does he himself knows what he is saying?

Excuse me.. Are you out of your mind?
What kind of pathetic question is this?
Do you even realise you don't make any sense over here?

Moreover.. Now I have nothing to do with you.. Now that you got your answer.. Please leave..

Khushi said pointing her fingers towards the door..

Dare you say that Khushi.. M not going anywhere.. Not until I take you along.. Arnav said with a dangerous glint..

Thats not happening Mr. Raizada.. M not coming anywhere with you.. Khushi too replied determined..

This made Arnav overtake ASR.. He dragged himself towards her and cupping her cheeks with love and loneliness asked like a kid-

Why Khushi?
What have I done that you are behaving like a heartless..
Don't you know how much.. How much.. I.. I need you?
How could you leave me when you promised never to leave me alone.. He asked in a cracked tone..

Khushi couldn't help herself from hugging him tightly at the moment seeing his broken form but then she realised what she is doing.. Unknowingly she is giving him a chance to let in by showing her weak side..

So quickly she detached herself from him while Arnav felt a loss..

Composing herself she said-
Because I didn't had a choice.. I was pregnant and by the time I had known you won't accept it rather you would have preferred to get rid.. Rid of it.. Which I couldn't do..

She then looked at their kids who were completely silent and were just glued to the couch on which she had made them sit-

Look at them.. Don't you feel anything after seeing them?
They are your kids.. They are your part.. Our part ARNAVJI..

Finally she said what he wanted her but royally ignoring it.. He looked at the direction of the kids firstly and then suddenly clutched her shoulder making her gasp and shouted at her face-

No.. I don't.. I don't feel anything for them..
But you know what I have for them?
Let me tell you.. I have hatred for them.. Because I hate them..

He said while closing his eyes tight.. The past was haunting him and he couldn't help but behave cruelly..

Shut up and get out.. Khushi shouted aloud..

Dare you say that.. He warned her yet so.. Right now.. He couldn't do much..

And dare you intimidate me.. She too shouted again.. It was just being uglier..

As if he gained some senses.. He held her palms softly and opened his mouth but what he said next cleared that he didn't gain any sense.. Infact he has gone complete insane-

Look Khushi.. Don't be too hard on us.. These arguments won't lead us to anywhere.. And regarding these.. These Chickens..
Whatever it is.. What's done can't be undone.. But still m being lenient.. They are related to you..Fine by me..  M ought to look after them..you must have someone whom you trust.. Keep them with that person.. I assure I will look after their everything.. Their upbringing will be in the best way possible and you shift back to my place.. I know they have a place in your heart.. You can meet them quite often.. And one more thing I..
Before he could utter more nonsense.. A hard slap landed on his cheek making him stumble a little with its force..

His cheeks were bruised with the force with which he was slapped but more than his cheeks.. His ego was bruised..

Recovering from it.. He looked at her.. Their stood his culprit.. The person who dared to slap him.. ASR.. His ever submissive and shy wife or The Strong and Fire like protector.. Mother of His Children..KHUSHI..

He was raged.. He clutched her nape and pulled her closer..
But she was no less.. She was beyond hurt now.. She gave him a hard push and freeing herself from his grip shouted-

I knew you are a monster.. I knew you would never accept them.. That's why I took that decision of choosing my unborn upon you.. And look how right I was.. You proved my decision correct today.. The little bit of guilt I had for leaving you has been so cleared by you Mr. Raizada..

I hope you got my answer by that slap.. Now just get out.. Go away before I do something more.. No one can come between me and my kids.. Not in the past.. Not in the present.. Never.. Never ever Mr. Raizada..

Saying this she dragged a shocked to core Arnav outside her gate and closed the door on his face..

And that's when her mask of strength slipped.. She crumbled like a broken piece of glass on the floor still leaning to the door and cried her heart out..

Her kids ran to her.. And gave their support by hugging her.  This is what she needed.. The warmth of her children.. They were so small yet so understanding and on the other side is their father..

She calmed herself down and looked around her house.. What a mess it was with broken pieces of vase and table all over.. This is almost what her life has become..BROKEN.. Since she had fallen for a certain person.. A certain heartless creature called Arnav Singh Raizada.. Her husband whom she doted once but didn't know that.. that husband of hers would be so cruel to his own kids.. What is it that made him hate his own kids?

I knew.. I knew you won't accept them Arnavji..but how could you expect me to leave them Arnavji.. How can yoy be so heartless to say that? Why you don't love them? Why did you return to my life Arnavji.. Why?  ..Saying this she couldn't help but cry once again.. This time not for herself.. Not for him.. But the kids.. Who deserved everything including their FATHER'S LOVE..
