Raizada Mansion.

.

Payal and her family arrived RM for Mehndi Ceremony...

Ratna and Manorama along with Aditi, Khushi and Anjali received them.

Refreshments were served and they all got settled for Mehndi Ceremony. Akash and NK tried their best to go downstairs but Ratna precisely prohibited them till the functions were over...

Akash and NK walked towards Arnav's room...

NK : Nannav Mere Bhai... They are not permitting us there...

Akash : Haan bhai... I want to see Payal... But Badi ma strictly ordered us not to step out...

Arnav : If that's the tradition, let them do it... We can wait... There are elders over there who are so keen on the traditions... They will bad mouth Ma and our family if we do anything against the tradition...

NK : Come on Nannav ... Don't talk like a Grandpa...

Aman : It's not Arnav talking. It's his Khushi's dialogue...

NK : This Happiness bhi na... Sometimes she looks and acts like an ultramodern girl, sometimes pakka like a traditional village girl... I don't understand this girl at all...

Arnav : You no need to struggle your peasized brain for that NK... I know my Khushi...That's enough...

NK : Ohhh... Possessive...

Arnav : Of course I am possessive and I admit that, NK.

NK : Sure... Who else knows about your possessiveness towards Happiness other than us? Trust me... I am so happy for you both Nannav...

Arnav smiled hearing it...

NK : So what's the plan? To waste the whole day sitting idle?

Akash : No way. Can we go and watch some movies?

Aman : Yeah... Good idea... Horror... Thriller...

NK : Sure... I am in... It has been days since I last got spooked...

Arnav : You all go and watch... I will join you later...

" OK", saying this, three of them walked towards the Theater Room...

.

After sometime

.

Khushi looked at her phone when it vibrated...
She took hold of it and saw Arnav's call...

Khushi : Arnav!!!

Arnav : Hey...You look stunning in this Lehenga...

Khushi : Of course I will na... It's my hubby Jaan's creation... How can it not be elegant?... By the way, where are you? She asked looking here and there...

Arnav : Look at your left... Poolside pe...

Khushi looked and saw Arnav smirking at her...

Khushi : Why did you call me now? Not to compliment the dress... That I know...

Arnav : Mmm... I want you to draw my full name on your mehndi...

Khushi : You mean Arnav Singh Raizada..? My hand is not that big, Arnav...

Arnav laughed hearing it...

Arnav : "Arnav" will do...

Khushi : Of course I will... Anyway, I was planning to write your name than just initial. .. Except for phere, we can do everything now... What do you say?

Arnav : Do you miss doing the traditional wedding, Jaan?

Khushi : No Baba... We will get married traditionally later na, with the blessings of our parents and elders...

Arnav : Of course Sweetheart... We will do a big fat wedding... By the way, where is your tail, Adi? Aman was asking for her...

Khushi : Arnav!!! Don't call her tail... She is my sweety... She is here only... Haan... I forgot... She went to the storeroom to take some stuff Ratna aunty asked her for.

Arnav : Ok... Then you carry on... After applying Mehndi come to our room. OK...

Khushi : Why?

Arnav : What Why? Just come... He said in ASR tone...

Khushi : Yes Boss... I will... She said smiling...

After an hour Khushi sneaked out of the function and ascended the stairs to reach Arnav's room...

She barged inside the room without knocking...

Suddenly Arnav yanked her towards him...

.

Khushi : Arnav!!!! My Mehndi... She squealed...

Arnav : I am cautious baby... I can't wait to be near you... Saying this, he hugged her tightly... He leaned down and buried his face against her neck and inhaled her jasmine aroma which soothes his nerves... He kissed the nape of her neck and said "I Missed You"...

Khushi smiled and hugged him back saying " I missed you too"...

After some time they pulled out of the hug... Arnav cupped her face and kissed her cheeks...

Arnav : Come, baby... Come and sit here... He made Khushi sit on his bed...

Arnav : I will be back in a moment... Saying this, he ran out of the room. After a couple of minutes, he came with a plate filled with food...

Khushi : Are you hungry?

Arnav : It's for you, baby...

Khushi : But I can't have now, Jaana... See... She showed her mehndi and pouted...

Arnav pecked on her pout...

Arnav : Who said that you have to eat it with your hands. Mein hoon na, my Jaan... ( I am there, my love)

Khushi : You will feed me? She squealed...

Arnav : Haan... We both can have our lunch together... Saying this, he started feeding her... And started eating himself too... They talked about random things while having lunch...

Khushi : Arnav, I am so scared... What if someone gets to know about our marriage? They will get hurt na... Especially our parents...

Arnav : My baby... You no need to worry about all those things. I will take care of everything. No one will get to know about it... Just after your graduation, we can tell everyone about us... So my Sunflower need not worry, Ok... What you need to do is get ready to be my beautiful bride... My best Half... He said smiling...

Khushi laughed hearing it...

Khushi : You are so thrilled na...

Arnav : Of course I am. After all, it's my marriage with my love. I am looking forward to it.

Khushi : Me too... I need nothing else... Just want to be yours... She said leaning on his chest... Arnav wrapped her in his embrace at the very next moment...

Arnav : You have no idea baby how much I wanted to be yours forever... I am scared... What if someone takes you away from me? I don't even want to think about it... Like Mr Arvind says, what if I am a bad omen and god didn't want to see me happy? What if he takes my life's only happiness away from me? He said in a daze.

Khushi suddenly hugged him and said

Khushi : No one can separate us... You are mine and I am yours...That's the truth of our life. It won't change ever... I won't survive without you...

Arnav tightened his hug hearing her... He will be doomed if he ever gets separated from his Khushi... She is his life... His Lifeline...

Khushi : Leave all that... What're today's programs... Planned anything? This is the last day of your official bachelorhood... She said winking at him...

Arnav : Get ready for a surprise... You both should be ready by evening... We need to go somewhere... Saying this he went near his cupboard and took two packets...

Khushi : Surprise??? Then she saw him coming with two packets... "Not Again, Arnav... Again dress?"

Arnav chuckled : Yes Jaan... Again dress... It's for our success party tomorrow. There is this red dress that's for you... And the blue one is for Adi... My first success party with my wife should be special, na...

Khushi smiled and took the packets from him...

Khushi : Can't you give it to Adu? She will be happy...

Arnav : It's not my selection. It's Aman's. Since he cannot see her in person till evening, he asked me to give.

Khushi : Ohh... I see. Fine... Where are we going?

Arnav : Surprise baby... He said flicking her nose...

Khushi pouted...

Arnav : Don't pout and tempt me, sweetheart... Later don't complain that I spoiled your Mehndi...

Khushi's cheeks turned crimson red hearing it... She ran towards her room leaving a smiling Arnav behind...

.

Evening

.

Arnav and his Pack started towards their destination...

Aditi : At least now can you please tell us where we are going?

Aman : Wait na, Adi...

Khushi : Aman Bhai!!!! At least you tell us na... Someone here has glued his mouth... She said looking at Arnav... Arnav just looked at her and smirked then he looked back towards the road...

Akash : No Chikku... Just be patient...

NK : Even I don't know girls... See they treats us like kids only... Don't marry them...

Arnav and Aman: NK!!!!!

NK : Oh god!!! Two desperate lovers... I am not saying anything... At least you should have told me the destination...

Akash : So that you can tell them na... You can't keep secrets bhai... Accept it...

Aditi : NK bhai is the best bhai of ours... He never hides anything from us. Hai na Khushi...

Khushi : Yes Adu... He is the best...

NK : Awww... See bhaiyon my sisters love me more than you people...

Aditi : Haan bhai... These are cheaters... Mainly the one at your left...

Khushi chuckled looking at Aman...

Aman : Huh!!! When did I cheat you?

Aditi : You didn't tell me the destination... If you loved me, you would say...

Khushi : You are right Adu... I have the same opinion... Someone else also is included in that category... She said glancing at Arnav...

Arnav : Hello Madam... I just said that it's a surprise and you turned it in another way...

Khushi : I am curious Arnav... Why can't you understand that?

Arnav caught hold of her hand and put it in his lap with his hand on top of it...

Arnav : Do you trust me?

Khushi : More than myself...

Arnav : Then just relax and enjoy the drive... You will love the place... I assure you...

Khushi smiled and looked lovingly at the man who held her heart... Her man...

After an hour drive, they reached their destination.

Khushi stepped out of the car and was stunned to see a beautiful house...

Khushi : Arnav!!!! Is it true? Is it our Pack House?

It was Khushi's idea that they need a place away from RM where they all can spend their time together... The place about which no one other than them knows... Arnav took it as her command and here they are in front of their beautiful hangout place...

Arnav side hugging her: Yes Jaan... It's our private house... Our secret hideout and romantic spot... If you want, you can turn it to Packhouse or Wolf house or anything... It's my marriage present to my wife... Liked it?

Khushi : Aww.... You are so cute you know... Liked it??? I loved it, Arnav!!!! Saying this, she hugged him...

Aditi : It's so beautiful, bhaijaan... From now onwards we will have our secret space... No need to get scared of Di's poking anymore...

Aman : But coming here every day is not practical, Adi... Still, we can spend our weekends here...

Akash : Yes... In two days Payal also will join us...

Khushi : I am eagerly waiting for my bhabhi to join us, bhai...

Aditi : But I will be your favourite bhabhi always, ok?

Khushi hugged Aditi and said.

Khushi : No one can replace you, my baby... And you are not only my Bhabhi... But Nanad too... We have two relations... You are first my brother's wife then my husband's baby doll...

Arnav smiled at his girls hearing their talks... How much he love them... They are the most important people in his life... One is his heart and another his heartbeat... He won't be able to survive without any of them... His little sister who is literally his daughter and the other one his Khushi, who held his heart and soul... They are everything to him... And he was elated seeing their bonding...

NK : How many rooms are there, Nannav Mere Bhai? Do I have a room here?

Arnav : Everyone has a room here... Each one of us has separate rooms. Still, my Khushi's room will be empty all the time...

Khushi : Huh... Why? Won't you bring me here?

Arnav : I will always bring you here... But you will stay in our room... Understood?

Khushi : Ohhh !!!! That's Ok... Still, I can use my room when I fight with you...

Everyone laughed listening to her...

Arnav : What the!!!

Khushi came forward and pulled his cheeks... Aww, my baby is angry... See how his cheeks are red now... He looks hot... Hai na, Aman bhai? She asked winking at Aman...

Aman : Yes Gudiya... You are right...

Aditi : Haww... You both are making fun of my Bhaijaan?

Khushi : Can't I comment on my hubby Jaan, Adu? He is my hot, charming, cute boy na...

Arnav : Khushi, Don't call me cute...

Khushi : Fine... What about sweet then? She said raising her eyebrows...

Arnav wrapped his hands around Khushi and said : I don't mind... You can call me anything... After all, I am your's, baby, saying this he kissed her forehead...

NK : We can go inside and get a room for you guys to romance... Can't you both wait till tomorrow? You are tempting me to have a girlfriend... He said dreamingly...

Everyone laughed at it...

Arnav held Khushi's hand and placed a key on her hand...

Arnav : Go and open... It belongs to you...

Khushi smiled and walked forward to open the door... All of them were delighted to see the posh, cosy interior of the house...

Arnav took hold of Khushi's hand and walked inside...

.
One by one got settled on the cosy couch... Arnav held Khushi's hand and pulled her towards him...

Khushi : What happened, Arnav?

Suddenly Khushi saw Arnav on his knees...

I can't promise to love you perfectly, but I will love you messily, overwhelmingly, inexorably.
Without you, I am nothing...

You are my favourite person, my lover, and my best friend. I cherish you above all others.

When I am with you everything else is moved into the background. You flood my senses. You are my life, my greatest gift, and my everything...

I give you the best of me, my heart, my soul, forever.

The love we share makes my life beautiful; I can’t imagine my life without you in it. Life has many sweet moments and I want to enjoy each one with you...

There’s no other person I’m willing to share my life with. You have captured my heart and I am your willing prisoner. Let’s make it official.

With all my love for you, I am asking you my sweetheart " Will you marry me?

Khushi was so stunned by this proposal of Arnav... She never expected it...

Arnav : Khushi !!! My knees are paining, baby, he said with a puppy face...

Khushi suddenly made him stand on his feet and hugged him... Arnav wrapped his hands around her and hugged her towards him while kissing her hair...

Arnav : Baby... You didn't give me any reply... He asked smiling...

Khushi pulled out of the hug and looked at him...

Khushi : What is there to ask when you know my answer will always be "yes"? Just make me wear that ring... Come on... Fast... She said forwarding her hand...

Everyone laughed at that comment...

Arnav did the same... He caught hold of her hand and slid on the ring... Aman came forward and moved to Khushi's side and took a small box from his pocket.

Aman: Gudiya... Take it and make him wear it...

Khushi took the ring with a smile and made Arnav wear it too...

Everyone clapped seeing this...

NK : So you both are engaged now... Only Marriage is left... Now can I see my room...

Arnav : What is the hurry, NK?  That room will be there only... Wait... Adi!!! He called Aditi towards him...

Arnav took two boxes from his pocket and handed one to Khushi...

Arnav : Not only us you too are going to tie the knot tomorrow... As Aman already proposed for marriage no need for proposal... Engagement will do. Saying this he took the ring from the box and gave it to Aditi... Khushi took the ring and handed it to Aman... Aman and Aditi too exchanged ring in the presence of their loved ones...

.

.

.
Arnav looked at his Khushi and felt elated to see her laughing at a mere joke of NK... This is what he wants... Her happiness... He walked towards her and held her hand and lead her towards the stairs... He took her to the first floor... They stood in front of a beautiful door...

Arnav : Open it...

Khushi did what she is asked for and was mesmerised to see the sight in front of her...

Arnav held her hand and both of them together entered the room...

Arnav : This is Our Room... Our heaven... Everything as per your choice... How is it? Liked it?

Khushi : It's so beautiful, Arnav... It feels like I am in a fairyland... She looked around like a small kid in a toy shop...

Arnav chuckled at his baby wife... Officially to be wife...

Khushi : Arnav !!!! We have a pool here... Garden too... Wow... They are so beautiful... She squealed in delight...

Arnav looked at her with a content smile... This is what he wants... Her Smile... Her Happiness... He wanted to give her everything she wishes for... He will do anything to see this smile on her face... He will be damned if ever that smile wiped off from her lips... His thoughts were disturbed by the shrilling voice of Khushi...

.

Khushi : Arnav!!!! We have a pond too in our garden... Wow... Look at those Lotus... They are so beautiful... This whole garden is so beautiful...

Arnav : You love them na...

Khushi : Yes... You also love them a lot, na...

Arnav : But I love you the most... He said with utmost love...

Arnav walked towards her and hugged her from behind... They both enjoyed the sunset together from their garden balcony dreaming of their beautiful life together oblivious to the storm which is waiting to hit on their beautiful life...

Same time in another part of Delhi...

.

Shyam : Anjali !!!! Don't you want your husband and father for your child?

Anjali : Ofcourse, Shyamji... Why are you asking me this now?

Shyam : If you want me in your life, do what I asked you for...

Anjali : But Chotte... He is my brother, Shyamji... How can I?

Sheetal : Bhabhi, you are not doing any crime... You are just doing a small act to make Arnav agree to marry me, that's all... Even you also want that only na?

Anjali : Yes Sheetu... I want you as my Bhabhi...

Sheetal : Then do as per the instructions of Bhai... He is doing all this for our good only, na...

Anjali : I know Sheetu... My Shyamji always thinks about our wellbeing only... Ok... I will do that... But will Amma agree with us?

Shyam : That depends upon your performance, Anju... Make it look real, and everything will be fine... Dad supports us...

Anjali : Ok Shyamji...

Sheetal : Everything is in your hands only Bhabhi... Your life... Your baby's life... Everything...

Anjali : I know Sheetu... I will do anything for you both... Your happiness is my happiness... Saying this she hugged Sheetal.
