  Arnav carefully read the last few days activities of the kidnapped people. All of them visited worship places at Lakshmi Nagar. Which clearly states that the killer also resides in the same area. 

He quickly dialled for Karan. "Karan I need the cctv footages of worship places in Lekshmi Nagar from the last month by today evening."

He leaned on his chair and smirked. ''Now you can't escape from me''. In the evening Karan comes with the cctv footage. Both of them spend hours keenly observing the visuals. ''Wait. Look at this suddenly Arnav shouted''. They see one man whose face is covered with a scarf comes in front of each victims and bent to touch their feet and suddenly runs from there. 

Arnav looked at the scene weirdly.'' Karan I have seen him somewhere''. Arnav whispered.
Karan looked at the video confusedly.'' But his face is covered.''

Arnav nodded his head. ''I know that karan. But look at his eyes I have seen him somewhere. I can't recognize correctly. His body posture also seems familiar.'' He scratched his brows thinking hard. 

''Then we are close to the culprit sir''. Karan exclaimed happily.

Arnav nodded his head and asked ''where is aman''.

'' He is on a leave again sir''. Karan informed him. Arnav rolled his eyes.''He didn't have any seriousness regarding his job. Ask him to report me, when he comes.''

Karan salutes him and lefts. Arnav leaned on his chair and closed his eyes thinking about the culprit.

''Arnavji...''. Khushi hugged him tight as soon as he enters home. 

Arnav found that really weird. ''What happend khushi. are you in some kind of tension''. He whispered hugging her close to his heart. 

''Nothing Arnavji. I'm really confused since one week''. She mumbled. 

He frowned. ''Confused about what.''

Khushi took a deep breath.'' Do you remember the day I visited a temple with Saritha Aunty. At there one man suddenly bent to touch my feet and ran away''. She mumbled again his chest. 

Arnav feels his breath stop for one moment.'' W..which temple you visited''. He asked fearfully. 

''Lakshmi nagar temple. What happend Arnavji''. she asked confused. 

''Why didn't you tell me before dammit''. He yelled jerking her. while Khushi looked at him shocked seeing his frightened face.

''Wh...what happend Arnavji.....''.She whisperd fearfully. Seeing her tensed form Arnav hugged her immediately. 

''Jaan you know about my case naa''. Khushi nodded her head. ''The killer is following the same action you described''. Khushi turn white in horror. She clutch his shirt tightly. Arnav rubbed her back.

''Sshh..relax jaan. I'm here to protect you. I won't let him succeed. Ok.'' He promised her. Khushi nodded her head still afraid. 

Arnav picked her up in his arms and led her to their bedroom. He made her lie on the bed and sat beside her.'' Sleep for sometime jaan. You need to relax''. Whispered and kissed her forehead.

 Khushi closed her eyes for sleep felling his hand stroking her head with so much love.

Arnav looked at her sleeping figure and shifted back to their past.

Khushi and Arnav met many times after the theater incident. Gradually they become friends.
Arnav comes to know that she is an orphan. At that instant his heart decide that he will never leave her alone. But destiny played a game which change their life. after Arnav left for his training khushi felt that loneliness envelop her. at that instant she realise that Arnav become a part of her life. his calls were her hope to live and to love. 

One particular day the orphanage authorities said to her that they are planning to conduct her marriage. Khushi was really shattered knowing that. she loves Arnav but was not sure about his feelings. She knows that he cared for her but she can't confirm if it's love or not. 

She called Arnav immediately. 

Arnav frowned looking at the time. Khushi never calls him at night. He picked it up immediately.'' Haan khushi.''

''Arnavji...woh.''..Khushi stammered. 

''What happend khushi....are you alright.''.He starts to get worried. 

Khushi closed her eyes taking a deep breath. With a trembling voice she said. ''Mother said that they are going to fix my marriage. Our orphanage is conducting ceremony at on that occasion they plan to make all the unmarried girls marry''. 

For a second Arnav's mind was blank. He don't know what to do. He can never lose his Khushi. by his tension he didn't realize that he actually disconnected the call. 

Khushi was shocked when the line got disconnected. She falls on the bed and cried her heart out. She thought that he doesn't love her. 

The next two days was really hell for Khushi. she was not able to concentrate on anything. She stayed on her room most of the time and the tears never left her eyes. 

On the third day she was called to the office. When she enters she was really shocked to find Arnav there. She looked at him blankly. 

Mother said. ''Khushi bitiya look he comes with a proposal for you. he said he really loves you and you too know him. He came here to ask your permission that he can come with his family. what is your opinion bitiya''.

Khushi just looked him blankly while tears start to flow from her eyes.

Arnav walked near her worried. ''Khushi..''. She hugs him tightly and sobbed. Arnav was shocked first then he patted her back whispering sweet nothings to her. mother looked at the scene and she got khushi's answer too.
