Carrying the chubby barbie in his arms, he walked towards her showed direction with wide grin on his lips. The nonstop blabbering of whatever his Barbie was saying was like some soothing music to him and upon that whenever she enlarged her eyes with amusement while speaking about something which seemed amusing and amazing to her was adding more to his fluttering heart.

One thing, Arnav, couldn't resist was kids and with this kid, he felt an instant connection. She was too sharp and observant for her age and that added more to her merit.

He finally reached to the place crowded with ladies probably of Aman's family. He looked at Aimal who grinned and pointed her fingers towards a petite frame girl, yes, she seemed a girl from the back view.

That's my Mumma. She said and started to wave her hands excitedly.

Ahh! Her Mumma looks too young to be a Mumma. Thought Arnav.

He put Aimal down who ran to her mother and hugged her legs from behind shouting a loud Mumma while laughing.

Her Mumma turned towards her and Arnav felt his world stopping.

Those spects, Ahh! He knows whom it belongs it.

Those eyes, its her.

Its Khushi.

She has not changed a bit.

She still looks the same.

The same look, same dressing sense, same spects and the same attractiveness without any trace of makeup on her face.

For him, She was a charmer then and she is a charmer now.

Charmer but Clingy. His mind reminded amd that striked something else to him too.

Khushi is Animal's mother. She is a mother.

Did she marry? Did she move-on in her life.

Ohh! Yea.
Five years is a long time.

Suddenly, he felt irkness amd disappointment seeping somewhere in his heart.

But, why?

Umm, may be, because he had expected to see her still not so over from him and their relation and drool over her ex for all the wedding.

Ahh! On that thought, let's see, how she reacts on seeing her ex over here and does her husband knows about us?

Seems, he could still have some fun.

He took slow pace steps towards the mother-daughter duo where the daughter was scolding her mother who had her head bowed down with a sad pout adorning her lips.

That sight swelled his heart and curled his lips in a sated smile unknown to him and then he didn't know when his lips started itching to taste that pout of those pink petals.

That mere thought alarmes him. What the hell is he thinking? How can he think something so absurd about someone's else wife, someone's mother but she is his ex. She loved him truly once.

Ugh! How can she move on from him this easily and have a baby with someone else.

That too when she was so into him amd their relationship. He remembers how she used to plan about their wedding and their future kids. Two girls and a boy. Thats what she wanted from him.

And now she is already a mother of a baby, no, the cutest baby girl and he is nothing but a sulking Virgin.

But why does it concern him?

It isn't that he is waiting for her nor has he any feeling for her.

Damn! Here he thought to create a havoc once again in her sense and now its happening exactly the opposite. He is so damn affected by the truth.

Its irking him and- and hurting, may be?

Ahh! No.

Its not hurting. He is just disappointed to not having a chance of enjoying the special attention of his most in-love clingy ex- girlfriend.

But, then, if he can't have the fun. For sure, he can see how she gets affected by her presence.

But, she had been a very strong girl, back then, which had attracted him the most, except from the bespectecled eyes. But then, Will she show that affect to him?

May be, she would hide but he very well can read her. He has been a pro in that. Tha was the basic reason of him making her his girlfriend and be in a long term relationship with her. He had read her and knew instantly had she is hopelessly in love with her.

He reached them finally and stood beside Aimal. She looked at her new friend and shrugged his pants to bent to his level.

That's when her mother noticed that her daughter has a visitor with her.

Her eyes shifted from her daughter to that person and that's when their eyes met.

Arnav felt himself being lost in her eyes for a moment but controlling himself he looked at her face with higher notch of excitement to see that very affect and the shock on her face.

He frowned when he found none of those feelings existing on her face. He seemed confused when he heard her-

Ohh!
Hii Arnav.
Good to see you. Its been so long.

He looked at her with so much of angst, irkness and shock. She seemed so normal, so calm, so composed.

Upon that she is talking to him in such a way that there is no painful history in-between them. How could she?

Has every feeling of her which she had for him eradicated from her heart in these five years?

She is smiling at him brightly and here his inside is burning.

He kept staring her when he felt something soft hitting his knees. He looked down to see Aimal trying to get his attention.

Aimal, Khushi's daughter. He thought.

Ohh! Do you both know each other?

Khushi asked seeing her daughter bonding to him.

While Arnav was too speechless to start a conversation, Aimal narrated how she met her new friend and what name she has given to him.

Khushi giggled along with her daughter while all Arnav could do was keep staring at her face. She still looked so peaceful and enchanting. Her cheeks glow the same intensity urging him to kiss her, there and she looks too young to be a mother of 4 year old.

Yea, she is 28 dude. She isn't that young to have a baby. His mind smirked with the reasoning.

Means, she got married at may be 23 or 24,just after I broke-up with her.
Did she move on that quickly or is it that she married to forget me?

While Arnav kept thinking of every possibility of marrying and having a baby. The mommy and daughter duo after waving to a lost Arnav left to join the rest.

To be continued..

Okk, so I was thinking to change Lavanya's name here. Do suggest me a good name with your desired face to see opposite to Karan wahi.

Also, do suggest an actor name who will have a short role in here.

CHARACTER SKETCH will be updated today.

Arnav thought to make Khushi shocked but here he, himself is too shocked to react.

His mind is demanding to many of answers and he us desperate to know all of it. Will he get to know about Khushi's life?

Why is he so annoyed and angry? Does he feel anything for her or its just his ego?
