At RM

Chachi: Hello hi bye bye, someone please pinch me, is this really the 'fire-breathing ASR'?

The 'DR' nodded their head agreeing with the same while Lavanya and her gang were controlling their laugh. Lavanya thought picture abhi baki hai (picture is still on) DR just wait and watch and smirked.

Anjali was about to say something but Dadi pressed her hands to make her remember that the guests are still there.

Then Lavanya with the help of HP, Sheetal, and Payal laid the table happily as finally, her gang is here. Dadi, Chachi, and Anjali too sat with them talking to know more about their relationship with Arnav. Kiran was impatiently waiting for Arnav as he was not there on her prom night and she has a lot to share. Lavanya too settled with them and Payal and Sheetal just stood to serve food and dismissed HP.

Then they all saw Arnav coming towards them and settled in his usual chair. Kiran and Khushi were sitting on both sides of him and he smiled at them. (The first shock for DR)

Kiran: Finally ... you came and Arnie, why did you take this how much time? (Pouting) that too when I had told you I was hungry ... and hey is this time to come home? (Sarcastically) by the way, how many times I have to tell you we have to work for living not the other way around? (The second shock for DR)

Arnav: (Sighed) Ok my mom, I am sorry. (The third shock for DR) will keep it in mind next time.
Now leave it and come let us have food, I am damn hungry

Lavanya served herself while Payal served Nikhil. Sheetal was about to serve Arnav but Khushi didn't notice it and as usual, served him making him smile at her. Sheetal felt ignored and stepped back. Khushi then served Kiran and Arnav served Khushi. (The fourth shock for DR) Seeing Sheetal's fallen face Dadi said

Dadi: Arnav how is the salad?

As he doesn't want to be rude to the elder lady unnecessarily he was about to taste it, but before it reached his mouth Khushi held his hand and he looked at her questioningly.

Khushi: No ... don't eat it

Chachi: Why? Why shouldn't he eat that? It is made with a special recipe by Sheetal

Hearing the name he was about to spat on them, but before that

Khushi: (Turning towards Sheetal) is this how you cook? Without knowing about the ingredients?

Sheetal: (Who was well irritated) I know what to cook and how to cook. You don't have to teach me and for your information, I am doing this daily

DR nodded their head supporting her

Khushi: (Pressed Arnav's hand to control his anger) Oh really, then tell me is it have beans in it?

Sheetal: Yes, so what? ... Look Khushi Ji, if you don't like it you don't have to eat that but why are you blocking Arnav Ji?

All looked at Khushi questioningly as if agreeing with her. Arnav was hell irritated to see them insulting Khushi and supporting Sheetal. He was about to retort, but Khushi again pressed his arms tightly and blinked at him, which cooled him down. (Fifth shock for DR)

Khushi: Look Sheetal, I am sorry if I am rude, but it is not about my like or dislike. Now only you said you are cooking daily. So how can you put beans in it and most importantly how can you expect Arnav to have it?

Anjali: What is the problem with beans? I don't understand

Khushi: WHAT? You are asking me what the problem with it is. Unbelievable! ... please don't tell me you all don't know Arnav can't have it

Dadi: Bitiya ...  what is the problem? please tell us

Khushi: Oh my God you too Dadi? (Shaking her head) I am sorry but I haven't expected this at least from you. Arnav has an allergy towards beans. If he takes even a bit of it he will be having an itching throat and eventually his sound will be gone. You guys even don't know that (Sighing) I am sorry to say this but I am totally disappointed

Khushi looked sad as well as angry since his family doesn't even care about his health. Arnav held her hand under the table and squeezed it. She looked at him and he smiled sadly at her as this is not a new thing for him.

Lavanya knew how much Arnav's health is important for Khushi and how much sad would be she seeing all that. She also was angry as they haven't allowed her in the kitchen saying Sheetal cooks most tasty food. Sensing the gloom between the couple she whispered

Lavanya: Leave it Kiya ... they will not understand. (Loudly and cheerfully) By the way Bro you eat the potato, it is 'Hari Bhaiyya's special' item only for you

They resumed their dinner and everybody was spellbound seeing how much Khushi know about him, care about him, his reactions towards her and the understanding they have. Dadi decided to clear the awkwardness

Dadi: Khushi Bitiya, sorry for the carelessness, she will be careful next time

Khushi: It's ok Dadi. You are elder to me and also ... you don't have to apologize for other's mistake. But please tell whoever is handling the kitchen to be careful while making food. It will cause so much health problems and you know he can't take all type of medicine

Dadi nodded understandingly and Khushi faked a smile at her. Arnav understanding that Khushi is still sad thinking about it said to cheer up her

Arnav: Kiya, it's okay ... leave it I didn't have it, also you know I don't like these type of food. I was just taking it as Dadi said so no problem

Saying this he smiled at her and Khushi nodded even though not fully convinced.

Sheetal wanted to cry seeing the scene. Others too were in a frozen state, soon Chachi decided to break the ice.

Chachi: Khushi, how you and Lavanya become phirands (Friends)?

Khushi looked at her questioningly

Chachi: I mean Lavanya is younger than you

All looked towards her but Kiran answered the question for her

Kiran: That's because she is a double graduate

So now every eye turned towards her and seeing their confusion she said

Kiran: Oh you guys don't know that story? Don't worry I will tell ... you see my lovely sis had dreamt, to become a doctor, that too a surgeon from childhood, but she couldn't attend the entrance exams. So she joined in Arnie's college as his junior and threw her dreams away. But then Arnie became the Knight in shining armor and persuaded her to join medicine after she passed fashion technology. And you know what? Now she has become a threat to her own sister

Again all looked at her questioningly

Kiran: Hey, you know ... my ambition was to become a fashion designer from childhood even though she draws better than me. But I was relieved that she will not come into my area, but now she is a doctor as well as a designer. That's why she is a threat (Pouting) ... but yeah I love her designs, unique! You know she had designed the showstopper dress for last London fashion week of AR and clients was gaga over it and ... yeah, you know what? If Arnie and Kiya together design something, i.e. the 'AK' brand, then I have no say in it! Right, Lav?

Lavanya nodded her head smilingly enjoying her family's shocked face.

All Raizadas and Jhas were listening to Kiran attentively as if they will get any clue from the story but only they understood was Arnav-Khushi were very close and know each other well. While Kiran was super happy as the first time she got a good audience who wasn't asleep hearing her blabber. Khushi shook her head at her usual dramatic explanation. Seeing their curious faces Arnav said hurriedly as he is afraid she will spill the beans before Manav comes

Arnav: Okay ... okay, enough of the history now. Don't you wanna sleep?

Kiran: Hm, definitely but I want to talk to you ...

Arnav: We can wait till tomorrow for that

Kiran: (Sighing) okay, but you have to take a leave tomorrow and show your place to us

Arnav: Sure, wish granted (Sixth shock for DR) but now go and sleep. I know you all will be hell tired and will be jet-lagged so we should call it a day

Dadi: Yeah, you people go and sleep. You all are comfortable in the guest rooms, right?

All nodded their head and Khushi smirked looking at Arnav. That's when understanding dawned upon him that she is staying in the guest room. His mood suddenly changed to grumpy. DR was surprised seeing his sudden changes but thought to let it go as today is not their day.
