Thank you so much for your votes and comments of the previous update. Here is the next chapter. Hope you guys like it. Eagerly waiting for your views.

Khushi looked at him confused. Arnav smirked seeing this. Seems like you forget about our deal. He said.
Khushi gulped hearing this.

Arnav walks near her..".hmmm...so ..are you ready for your work".

Khushi nodded her head fearfully. She don't know what work he will give to her. Seeing his mocking smirk her doubt and fear increased.

Arnav smiled seeing her nervous form.".don't worry as it's your first work I'm giving you some consideration. Hmm..."

Khushi nodded her head down. Arnav scratch his jaw as thinking. "Hmm...ya..wash my car. I have a meeting in the morning and I need my car completely clean". He said.

Khushi looked at his car. It's already cleaned and she knows that he just wants make her work. "But sir...my working hours are over. I need to go home. I will come early in the morning and wash the car. Is it okay." She asks fearfully thinking about her stepmom.

Arnav folded his hands. "May I know who is the boss here.".he asks sarcastically.

Khushi gulped." .y..you.".she whispered.

"And what makes you think that I will listen to your words". He said mockingly.

"But sir.".khushi tried once again but stopped seeing his glare.

"If you want this job..just do it as I say, otherwise you can leave and there is no need to come from tomorrow" arnav said sternly.

Khushi nodded her head and walks near the car. She started washing the car cursing him in her mind while arnav leaned on the wall and watch her.

"What's your educational qualification.." arnav asked suddenly.

Khushi looked at him stunned for a moment but quickly composed herself." I'm not graduated. I was in last year and only few months left for my graduation but unfortunately I had to stop my studies." Her eyes turn moist remembering it. At that time garima got her leg fractured and she didn't let khushi steps out of the home. Doesn't even permit her to attend the exams. But what makes her devastated is her babuji too supported garima.

Arnav see that khushi is lost in some thoughts. By seeing the tears in her eyes he is sure that it's not at all about pleasant memories. He cleared his throat making khushi jerks out of her thoughts. She just give him a small smile and continued to wash it.

"Which course you studied". He continued.

Khushi frowned why he is asking all these about her. She looked at him suspicious. Arnav shrugged his shoulder. "What..according to our deal you must obey my words. Now just answer my questions". He said smirking. Khushi sighed. "I was studying BA".

Arnav smiled. "So you loves literature. "

Khushi shakes her head in deniel. "No I love fashion designing. But we don't have that much money so I couldn't afford it." She said with a sad smile lingering on her lips.

Arnav looked at her without saying anything while khushi completed her job. "Sir my work is done..Shall I go home.. " arnav just nodes his head and go inside the mansion without saying anything.

Khushi rolled her eyes. "This man and his attitude..." she twitch her mouth.

Khushi enters her house looking at her watch anxiously. It's already past 8. What can she do...she gets late because of washing his car and on the top of that there was heavy traffic on the way.

"Stop there. ." she heard the yelling of garima and stood rooted to the spot. Garima walks near her with furious steps. "What's the time now.." she asked seriously.

"Eight...eight thirty. ".khushi whispered. .

She pinched khushi's hand makes her wince in pain. "What do you think about yourself haan...didn't I told you to come home before 7...are you hell bent on bringing disgrace to the family. ..haa..".she screamed and tightened her hold on khushi.

"Aaah..amma...Sorry. ...I will never do it again. ..aah...please amma."..khushi cried trying to come out.

Garima pushed her hard. "You won't get any food tonight. Take it as your punishment for disobey me. If ever try to do this stunt again this pain and hunger will reminds you about the consequences. Understand." .she asked in a dangerous voice.

Khushi nodes her head and goes to her room wiping her tears.

Khushi kept looking at the star...it's her routine now...even though she doesn't remember anything about her mother she finds solace in talking to her.

What hurts her the most is the behaviour of sashi. She knows that garima hates her and she don't have any complaints regarding it. Because she is doesn't give birth to her. But why her papa is doing this. Isn't she is his own daughter...she don't know when tears starts to roll down from her eyes.

Suddenly she feels two tiny hands wiping her tears .khushi smiled and turned to find kaushik looking at her with a sad expression. "What happened baby.." she lifts kaushik and makes him sit on her lap..

Kaushik continues to look at her face. ."are you crying di.".he asked in a baby tone..

Khushi shakes her head in deniel. ".no bacha...why would di cry...hmm.." she kissed his cheeks and hugged him.

"Maa didn’t give food to you naa di.".he asked touching her cheek. "But kaushik brought for you.."..he said and took the paratha which he hides from his mother. "You eat this naa di...I took it from maa' s plate .".he giggled remembering how he steal it.

Khushi hugged him tightly feeling overwhelmed. If anyone cares for her in the world then it's her kaushik." But there is no curry di.." kaushik said sadly.

Khushi kissed him and starts eating the paratha. .".no problem shona...di likes paratha even without the curry. Don't worry..hmm..."

Kaushik smiled happily and snuggled close to her. Khushi quickly finish the paratha before garima comes.
