Recap - Aarohi out of danger , Arjun exposing Thara

A week passed by. Arjun stayed back in the hospital. He took utmost care of Aarohi. Nivi accompanied him all the time. Aarohi couldn't think of anything else. She felt lucky to have them besides her. Divya , Arun and Nandini visits her frequently. Aarohi wanted Arjun to attend to his office. But he was adamant in his decision

Nivi sat besides Aarohi. Reading a book. Aarohi had her arms around her. They were busy laughing and giggling when Arjun came back to the room along with the doctor.

"Aarohi is completely alright. You can take her back home"

"Yay"Nivi jumped up in the bed. And started clapping. They laughed at her

"Thank you so much for everything doctor"Arjun said shaking hands with the doctor

"Take care Aarohi"

She nodded with a smile. The doctor left the room.

"Aaru di..we can go home now"Nivi said hugging her. Aarohi hugged her back and smiled

"We should pack everything right? Nivi. So come help nanna"Arjun said

"Okay"Nivi got down from the bed

"Arjun..you too bad..why are you making my baby do all the works?"Aarohi asked making nivi giggle. Arjun glared at her

"Hello Madam. She's my daughter and she can do anything"

"What if I'm lazy Nanna?"

Nivi and Aarohi laughed at him

"Ohh...so you both are a team now? And I'm out?" He pouted making both of them giggle

"No Nanna. We love you" Nivi hugged him. He smiled and took her in his arms.

An hour later. Arjun was busy packing all her stuffs. Nivi helped him.

"Aaru di..Wear this saree..You'll look gorgeous. Nanna bought this for you"Nivi said excitedly. Giving a box to Aarohi.

"Nivi. I can't wear saree now. And who'll wear saree when we return back home from hospital"Aarohi said making nivi pout

"Aaru di.Please.Please..I want to see you in this saree. You'll look so pretty"

Arjun watched them with a smile.

"But baby"

"Nivi. Leave it baby. She can't even fulfill this silly wish of yours" Arjun said making her glare

"Excuse me. Mr.Arrogant. I'll do anything for her"

"Then. Wear it. Why are you wasting time?"

She sighed and took the saree from Nivi.

"Okay fine" she walked inside the other room to change.

Nivi and Arjun looked at each other and laughed. She raised her arms and showed him thumbs up. Arjun winked at her.

Aarohi came out after few minutes drapped herself in the saree. Arjun and Nivi was waiting for her outside. Nivi opened her mouth in surprise

"Wow. Aaru di. You look so pretty.."nivi squealed

Aarohi smiled and raised her head to look at Arjun and found his eyes boring into hers. She felt his gaze and lowered her head.

After packing everything they left the hospital.

Nivi sat on Aarohis lap , continuously  talking to each other . Arjun drove the car silently. Listening to them as well.

10 minutes later he stopped the car. Aarohi looked outside the window  to see whether they've reached or not. But To her surprise. He stopped the car in front of a temple. Aarohi looked at him shocked.

"Arjun..why here?"

He looked at her and smiled

"Come out"he stepped outside

"Don't worry Aaru di..all is  well"Nivi smiled and got down from the car. Aarohi got down too and walked towards Arjun

"Arjun. You dont believe in God right?"she asked

"I do Aarohi"

She lookedat him. Shocked

"Arjun are you serious?"

"I believe it now. God do exist. Aarohi. It's just we fail to realise his presence around us. I believe in God Aarohi. And that's why you stepped into my life."

She smiled widely hearing those words from him.

"Let's go nanna"Nivi insisted. Holding his palm

Arjun nodded with a smile and three of them walked inside.

Aarohi stopped in her tracks when she saw Arjuns parents at a distance. Talking to the priest. Besides them stood Arun , Divya , Nandini , Raj and Natasha. She held Arjuns wrist and stopped him. While Nivi ran towards her grandparents

"Arjun?"

He looked at her with a smile

"What's going on?"

He walked closer to her and held her cheek. With his palm.

"We are getting Married"he said making her shocked. Aarohi felt numb to react

"Arjun?"

"We are getting Married Aarohi. This moment. I know I sound weird. But  I'm serious about this decision Aarohi. I can't wait anymore. I can't think of loosing you again. I think..this is the right time to start our life."

Her eyes moistened unknowingly. He cupped her cheeks.

"Aarohi. Don't take me wrong. I don't want to force you. I know you may be expecting a.."

She stopped him by keeping her fingers on his lips

"No.. Arjun..don't say that. I don't want my marriage to be a grand affair"

"I will never force you Aarohi"

"If not now. I'm never ready"

He smiled. And gripped on her palms tighter. They smiled at each other and walked inside. Together

The priest asked them to sit together. And when they did he recited the chantings.  Nivi stood in between them Happily. Aarohi put the garland over him and he did the same. They were asked to take the vows around the holy fire. Nivi held their palms from either sides and took each vows around the fire. Along with them. While others gazed them in admiration. Arjun and Aarohi smiled at each other when he tied the wedding chain around her neck. A drop of tear escaped her eyes. He wiped it with his fingers. And filled her hairline with vermilion. His eyes moistened too. It took him back to that day. When he marked the same. Over Kavya. He missed her. And then smiled. Looking at Aarohi. Taking her feets on his palm he slid the toe ring in her finger. Making her feel bliss

An unknown sensation took over them. He was hers. And she was his

Aarohi Arjun Devanand.

They signed together in the marriage registration papers. Marking the end to the rituals. Nivi squealed in happiness and hugged both of them. They hugged her back tightly

They took blessings from Ramya and Satya who hugged them in happiness. Ramya had tears. Raj and Arun hugged Arjun while Natasha  , Divya and Nandini took Aarohi for a bone crushing group hug.

"Congratulations killer" Arun hugged Aarohi. She smiled and hugged him back.

They left together. To Happy Homes to take blessings from elders and meet the children. They squealed in delight. Finally their Angel got married and got a life. Which she dreamt of

Aarohi bid a tearful farewell to her family. Divya lingered a bit longer in her hug. Their hearts ached to send her away. The children cried. Hugging her tightly

After a long day they headed back to Arjuns house. Aarohi still couldn't believe that she's married. She is his wife. And smiled through tears. She looked side ways and found Arjun. Smiling at her. He raised his eyebrows while she shook her head. He is her husband now. And he's no more Mr. Arrogant for her

Arjun felt the same. Felt lucky to have a person like Aarohi in his life. He saw Nivi clinging to Aarohi. And he could see Kavya. Through Aarohi.

Nivi is the happiest. More than anyone. In this world. She got what she always dreamt of. Aarohi. Her Aaru di. Now her mother
