At RM, New Delhi, India

Arnav was so much happy as Manav will return today and tomorrow he can announce to the whole world about his Khushi. Also, he will get to see his Nani and Rudy after a long time so he was really excited. He was just out from the shower with just a towel around his waist humming one of his favorite songs 'Kiss you' by one direction. He turned around hearing the knock expecting it to be Khushi but it was HP standing there with his coffee.

HP: Bhaiyya coffee

Arnav: (Taking a sip) Kiya is there in the Kitchen, right?

HP: Yes Bhaiyya ... but ... how do you know?

Arnav: (Smiling) the coffee of course ... by the way, what is she doing there?

HP: She is trying a new recipe for your breakfast

Arnav: Oh ... yeah, she told me ... and Hari ... where are Nikhil, Kiddu, and Lavi?

HP: Kiddu is in the garden in the backyard ... was saying want to spend time with the plants

Arnav smiled knowing why she wanted to be alone, of course, to plan against Rudy.

HP: And there is a puja to receive Manav Chachu ... Chachi had given the task of arranging everything for Puja to Lavi and Nikhil Bhaiyya is helping her. Bhabhi was saying she too is going to help her after finishing in the kitchen because Lavi can't handle it alone and that's why she sent the coffee with me saying if she came here you won't allow her to leave soon

Arnav: (Smirking) okay ... here is the cup ...

HP went back with the empty cup. Arnav put on his pants, shirt, waistcoat and watch and started downstairs. 

He was all ready to go out as he has to be at the Airport to receive Rudy and Nani. When he reached the railings he saw Khushi chirping like a butterfly laughing happily along with Lavanya looking fresh in the morning in his favorite color. Today she was wearing a red sleeveless suit and he knows why she chose suit today because there is a puja today because that is Khushi, dressing up according to the situation.

He stood there looking at her all lost by placing his hands on the railing and supporting his face with that but failed to notice Sheetal, Payal, and Anjali sitting just before them.

Payal who saw Arnav indicated Anjali and Sheetal to look at him and all the three were shocked to see the intensity with which he was looking in their direction.

Anjali: (Smirking)... arrey wah Sheetal never knew your Arnav Ji used to admire you

Payal: Yeah ... Sheetal when did this secret admiration started?

Sheetal was blushing furiously hearing their talks and that's when Lavanya too noticed Arnav there. Seeing his looks Lavanya knew where her brother had lost. She nudged Khushi who was chatting continuously and she pouted at Lavanya for disturbing her talks. But when she saw Arnav she smiled at him but he didn't smile back. She frowned and looked at Lavanya who in turn teased her.

Lavanya: What to do Kiya baby ... Bro is so lost in you that he didn't even acknowledge your smile

Khushi: Aww ... (Beating her hand) don't speak like your brother Lavz

Lavanya: Oye ... oye ... Kiya ... you are blushing

Khushi: Don't tease me yaar ...

Lavanya: Why? ... only Bro can do that?

Khushi again looked at him and blushed seeing his intense bedroom eyes. She saw Lavanya smirking at her and chided playfully

Khushi: Lavanya ki bachi ... stop it ... I too know when you will start blushing but the situation is not good ... so stop it, otherwise

Lavanya: Otherwise?

Khushi started to tickle her stomach and she burst out laughing. The trio was so much into their planning of Sheetal's marriage with Arnav that they didn't acknowledge any of these. But the besties' laughter had brought Arnav back to earth and he smiled seeing their bond.

Lavanya: Okay ... okay now stop it ... see even bro came back from his dream world

Khushi looked back at him and he first winked at her and she gasped seeing that. Her expressions really entertained him so he threw an air kiss at her making her jaw wide open and he smiled at that.

Here Anjali and Payal were teasing Sheetal mercilessly without even a doubt that he was looking at Sheetal all this while. He was descending the stairs that's when he saw Sheetal looking at him and smiling shyly and frowned thinking is she mad?

'Arnieeeeeee' hearing Kiran calling him he looked to see her calling him sitting on the sofa and hearing that tone he knew she is calling now as the universal prank star K3.

Arnav: What mate?

Kiran: Will you take me with you? I want to buy something

All raised their eyebrows at that.

Kiran: Arrey Rudy is coming and he is my (Sarcastically) best friend ... so obviously I have to make plans to receive him

Anjali: Oh god ... why he have to come now? Irritating idiot

Khushi: Kiddu ... you? ... you want to surprise him? him?

Kiran: Yes Kiya ... and don't worry he will love it. (Only audible for Arnav) let us see what Rowdy will do

Arnav: (Shaking his head) okay you come with me ... I will take you ... and Kiya let she plan ... after all he is her friend, right?

Khushi: (Nodding doubtfully) okay

Kiran: (Under her breath) friend my foot

Arnav chuckled at that because this two are never going to change. He knows Rudy too will be planning pranks for her. And it's his favorite hobby being the partner in crime with her.

Dadi came there and called everyone to the breakfast table. Arnav nodded as he was relived today that there isn't a repetition of yesterday morning episode. He sat on the dining table and was waiting for Khushi as he knows Khushi had prepared something special for him. Again Sheetal tried to serve him but before he could stop her

Khushi: Wait, Sheetal ... don't serve him ... there is something else for him

All looked back to see Khushi coming with a dish which they know to be something not Indian as she was bringing fork and knife too. She had prepared it for Arnav and her only as other three wanted to relish Indian food. DR looked irritated with the interruption but to their surprise, Anjali was nodding with a smile. Arnav and Lavanya raised their eyebrows at that but she was in her dream world that in tomorrow's party Papa going to announce Arnav's marriage least she knows with whom.

Everyone along with Khuranas apart from Sheetal and Khushi was seated on the table and Khushi started to serve Arnav. Everybody was looking at the scene with astonishment as Khushi was arranging everything he needed in the right place. Sheetal was sad as Khushi know everything about him and understand him more than her. She also knows that even if she marry Arnav she can never have a relationship with him like Khushi have because there was that much difference between the cultures.

After serving, Khushi took the vacant chair beside Kiran while Sheetal sat beside Dadi. After sometime Kiran asked Arnav

Kiran: Arnie would you take me to any restaurant, please?

Arnav: Why? Didn't you like the food?

Kiran: Food is yummy but ... I want to eat Chi ...

Immediately from both sides Arnav and Khushi put their hands in her mouth as they know what she is going to ask. She like all the vegetable foods but sometimes she can't be without chicken just like Nikhil but the one thing she doesn't know is nonvegetarian foods are not allowed in RM. Manav, Arnav, and Lavanya have it rarely without anyone's knowledge and in America, there wasn't any restriction like that. So they all really forgot to mention it to Kiran and that would have been out now. Arnav indicated her to shut up and then only realized Khushi too had put her hands, they both looked at each other and burst out laughing. Nobody other than Lavanya and Nikhil understood the matter so they looked at him weirdly. He just avoided their eyes and attended the call as his phone rang

Arnav: What? ... okay, don't worry I will reach there ... yeah, no problem ... okay then ... bye, Big B

He cut the call and looked at Dadi as she was the only one he thought as important there as she was his father's mother and also a sensible woman, the only problem with her is her over love towards traditions and Anju.

Arnav: Dadi ... did Dad call you?

Dadi: No ... what happened?

Arnav: Hmm ... Nani and Rudy are coming today and others tomorrow

Dadi: Really? Suhasini is coming here ... it is after a long time ... nothing happened, right?

She asked really concerned about them because she was against inter-caste marriage but not against Oberois.

Arnav: Nothing Dadi ... Dad had invited them for tomorrow's function. And now Big B had called saying the flight is early ... so I am going there now to receive them

Dadi: Ok then. You go and ... come fast your presence will be needed to give opinions about the party

She added as an afterthought as she knows he is the sensible one than Akash

Arnav: Sure Dadi. Kiddu ... come ... let us go. Are you guys coming? Nikhil?

Nikhil: I will be here buddy to check the arrangements

Arnav: Okay then ... Kiya?

Khushi: No Arnav ... you guys go ... I will be with Lavz

Arnav: (Cupping her cheeks) Are you sure? ... I mean

Khushi: I will be fine Arnav

Arnav: (Sighing) okay then ... bye

Khushi: Bye ...

Arnav and Kiran rushed out as the plane was early. Anjali was fuming seeing Arnav's ignorance towards her but tolerated as from tomorrow he will be committed to Sheetal and as Sheetal was a dump it is she who is going to control him. She was making different plans to get control of all the money. She knows Akash will do anything she wishes and for Arnav Sheetal will be her trump card as per her Arnav has feelings towards Sheetal.

At the airport

Arnav and Kiran were waiting in the VIP launch. Kiran was reading something on her phone while Arnav was standing there attending Manav's call

Arnav: Ok Dad ... we will leave then ... yeah ... I will send Mohan

As soon as he cut the call someone hugged him from back saying 'Arnie Bro'. He smiled and turned around to see Rudy who came running and Nani walking slowly behind him. Rudy and he shared a brotherly hug for which Nani smiled while Kiran fumed. Arnav broke the hug but Rudy was not leaving him and seeing that Kiran said

Kiran: Hey Rowdy ... are you planning to kill my Arnie?

Rudy turned back to see Kiran there

Rudy: Bro ... why did you bring this Keer with you?

Kiran: How dare you call me Keer?

Rudy: That is what you are ... the black girl ... Keer. By the way, what did you called me ... Rowdy?

Kiran: What did I say wrong? That is what you are ... aren't you going to the gym for that? ... to become a Rowdy?

Rudy: What the!

Kiran: That is Arnie's dialogue

Rudy: So what? ... I am his brother ... I too can use it. Who are you to interfere in that?

Kiran: I am his sister too

Rudy: Oh really?

Nani: Now stop it both of you ... he is a brother to you two but before that, he is my grandson. So let me see him properly

Kiran and Rudy looked at her with jaw dropped while Arnav smirked at them. Nani cupped his right cheek

Nani: Arnie ... how are you beta?

Arnav: (Smiling at her) perfect Nani ... and now you are here

He then took her to a warm hug murmuring 'I missed you so much, Nani'. They both broke the hug hearing the R-K fight and smiled at each other

Arnav: Come ... guys ... you can fight after reaching home

They both huffed at each other and started towards mall first because Dadi wanted to buy something for Payal as she is meeting her first time after marriage. And the fight continued again for the passenger seat, choice of shop, etc leaving Nani and Arnav frustrated.

At RM

Lavanya: Kiya ... will you give your phone? This Nik played games on my phone and drained its charge after his own

Khushi: (Smilingly) Sure ... (Thinking) but where did I keep it ... yeah, it is in the poolside ... I had kept it there at night ... will bring it now

Lavanya nodded at her. Anjali gritted her teeth knowing Khushi was there in Arnav's room at night.

When Khushi came back Lavanya was lighting the diyas for the puja but handed over the task to Khushi as she has to make a call. Khushi was lighting them with a smile unaware of the surroundings but came back to earth hearing Anjali's shout

Anjali: Khushi Ji ... what have you done? Lavanya ...

Hearing her shout everyone including Lavanya came there and Khushi was really afraid thinking she had done something wrong.

Anjali: Lavanya ... what the hell have you done? How could you hand over this task to Khushi Ji? You very well know it has to be done by family members only ... you could have called Sheetal or Payal ... don't you know she is not a family member

Lavanya: But Di ...

Anjali: Not one more word Lavanya ... (Turning to Khushi) and you Khushi Ji ... who do you think you are? ... we are treating you as a family member doesn't make you one and how dare you do that?

Lavanya: Di at least listen to me once

Chachi: Shut up Lavanya ... and Anju what else do you expect from characterless girls like her?

Lavanya was about to shout but Khushi held her hand indicating no. Frustrated, Lavanya shut her eyes tightly and prayed for her Bro's arrival. 

Dadi: Manorama ... don't speak like that to a girl without knowing her

Anjali: What wrong did Chachi say Dadi? She is obviously one ... didn't you saw her closeness with Arnav? She is acting as if he is her boyfriend ... hugging him, kissing him, feeding him and what not ... God knows maybe even sleeping with him. These girls don't have a character at all ... it is clear from her lifestyle itself

Turning to Khushi who was standing with eyes full of tears and Lavanya with a clenched fist which was tightly held by Khushi to stop her from shouting

Anjali: Aren't you ashamed to act like this? It is very clear that you are engaged ... so don't you feel ashamed to cheat your fiancé by doing all this with my brother? Do you...

Anjali couldn't even complete her sentence as she was harshly pulled away and slapped by the fire-spitting Manav Singh Raizada.

Manav came towards Khushi and side hugged her and rubbed her shoulders and Lavanya sighed in relief.

Manav: Enough

Anjali: (Holding her cheek) Papa

Manav: Don't call me that Anjali ... today you totally failed me. How could you ... how could you talk like that about Kiya? And what do you even know about her that you are commenting about her character?

Anjali: Don't protect your guest Papa ... she may be your friend's daughter ... but what I had said is true only ... she is a cheap characterless...

Manav: (Gritting his teeth) I said stop it Anjali ... not one more word about Kiya

Anjali: (Turning to Dadi) see Dadi ... first, he slapped me for this girl and now  ... shouting at me for this girl

Dadi: (Getting angry) what is this Manav? How can you slap your own daughter for an outsider?
