Khushi bit her nails thinking what she should do in order to take that ring from Mami.

She glared at Arnav who was enjoying with Guptas and chit chatting happily, "Wah Laad governor kahike.. By trapping me with Mami, he's enjoying the party!"

"Now what will I do? Think Khushi.. Think.. You've to prove this Laad governor wrong.. I can do it.. Khushi can do it.. Salman's Khushi will do it.. Jalebi's Khushi will do it.. Arnav ji's Khushi will definitely do it!" she talked to herself proudly.

While talking to herself, suddenly an idea popped out from her mind. She grinned rubbing her hands excitedly, "Yes! This idea will definitely work!"

She hurriedly went to the kitchen and came back with a bowl containing milk in it. She searched around for Mami and finally found Mami in a corner applying lipstick in her lips.

She rushed to Mami smilingly, "Mami ji"

"Hello hi bye bye what are you doingwa with milkwa this time? Don't tellz me you become Doodhwali (the one who delivers milk) now" Mami asked in disbelief.

"Nahin Mami ji.. I brought this milk to play a game with you.. A game to help you know that after Akash ji and Jiji's marriage, who will dominate Akash ji.. Is it you or Jiji?" Khushi whispered secretly to Mami.

"Is it really phossiblewa?" Mami widened her eyes, "I want to play this game now only! How to play it?"

"It's very simple.. You should put this new beautiful ring of yours in this bowl and then me and you will search for it.. If I find it first, then it means Jiji won and if you find it first, Akash ji will obey your words for eternity!" Khushi said.

"But I should be playing this game with Payal bitiya na?" Mami asked suspiciously.

"Yes.. but you see Mami ji if you win and I'm sure you only will win, Jiji will feel bad.. So I will play on her behalf, ok?" Khushi prayed Mami get convinced by her words.

Mami smiled and nodded her head taking her ring off her finger, "That will be the right thing to do! Let's see now who will my dear sonwa will obey after marriagewa"

Khushi smiled, as Mami threw the ring to the bowl excitedly to know.

"Mami ji close your eyes.. I will also close mine!" Khushi said.

Mami closed her eyes and raised her hand to search the ring, but instead of reaching the bowl, her hands were roaming in air.

Khushi giggled and took opportunity of this time to take that ring from the bowl.

Mami frowned still with closed eyes, "This such Bakwas idea to play this game with closed eyewa.. I can't even reach the bowl in first place!"

"Even I can't Mami ji.. Let's do one thing.. let's play it with open eyes then.." Khushi said acting like she's still with closed eyes.

Mami opened her eyes, "That's betterwa!"

Mami and Khushi put their hands in the bowl and start searching for ring.

Mami frowned, "I'm not finding it.."

Khushi took her hand off the bowl, "I did not find it either.."

"Hawww.. Where did my bing (ring) go then?" Mami asked with wide eyes and snatched the bowl from Khushi's hand searching it again.

"Mami ji do you know what it means?" Khushi asked.

"That someone stole my bing when we were playingwa with closed eyewa!" Mami spoke with horrified expression.

"Nahin.. This is the reply from DM.." Khushi said innocently, "This means that after Akash ji and Jiji's marriage, neither you nor Jiji will dominate Akash ji instead he will dominate you both!"

"Hello hi bye bye.." Mami freaked out, "This can't be phossiblewa.. I cannot be dominated by my dear sonwa.. Already Sasuma orderwa me around everytime.. then Akash bitwa's father and now Akash bitwa himself.. No way!"

Mami left from there completely shocked while Khushi giggled.

She looked at Khushi raising her imaginary collar with attitude, and raised the ring showing to him that she did it.

Arnav gave her a look Are-wah-You've-got-brains too!

Khushi grimaced and walked to him, she handed the ring secretly to Akash who was beside Arnav.

"Thank you so much Khushi.. You saved my life today.. If I didn't find this ring at time, then I wonder what would happen here" Akash thanked Khushi genuinely.

"You don't need to thank me Akash ji.. Remember no sorry, no thank you rule for family!?" Khushi reminded him smiling.

At the same time Akash nodded his head smiling and he didn't notice that he had step on Payal's dress. Payal whined, "Akash ji! What are you doing?"

He looked down and smiled sheepishly to her, taking a step back. Payal waited for him to apologize at least.

Akash shrugged, "What happened Payal? Now I'm not stepping on your lehenga!"

"Don't you know how to say sorry?" Payal asked.

Akash turned to Khushi, "Khushi teach Payal some manners please.. Say to her that we created a rule of no sorry and no thank you for family members!"

Khushi bit her tongue cursing herself for teaching this to Akash who always took wrong meaning of her words. Payal rolled her eyes in disbelief while Arnav stood unaffected pretending that he didn't even hear what Akash said.

****************************************************************

Sometime later..

The lights were switched off and only spotlight illuminated the stage where Payal and Akash were standing to exchange the ring. Shashi and Garima stood beside Payal and Mami and Mama beside Akash.

While Mami was handling Akash the ring, she frowned, "Isn't the same to same to my lost bing?"

"What happened Ma?" Akash asked.

"This is same to my lost bing!" Mami said confused.

"Are chup ho jao tum Manorama (Keep quiet Manorama).. Let your son get engaged then you will search your ring!" Mama scolded her.

"Haan Ma.. This is not your ring, I bought this one for Payal.." said Akash taking the ring from her hand.

"Both alreadywa started dominating me.. No one hearz what I have to say! Hello hi bye bye Manorama.. tu toh gayi (you're gone).. Khushi bitiya was right only!" Mami thought with crying expression.

Arnav, Khushi, Nani, Anjali, Shyam, Aman, Buaji, HP, Laxmi watched Payal and Akash exchanging the rings near the stage along with other guests who stood in a crowd.

Arnav wrapped his arms around Khushi's waist, hugging her from behind. He rested his chin on her shoulder, "How did you manage to convince Mami about the lost ring? She didn't even create a scene for that!"

Khushi rested her hand on Arnav's hand that were on her waist blushing, "I said that she didn't find the ring because neither her nor Jiji are going to dominate Akash ji after marriage, instead it will be Akash ji who will dominate both!"

Arnav chuckled shaking his head, "I was right.. one crazy girl only can handle another crazy person!"

Khushi pouted.

Their conversation got interrupted when everyone started clapping for Akash and Payal who were declared engaged now.

Khushi clapped her hands excitedly and happily for her sister. She was smiling widely, innocently and childishly just like the way Arnav loves it. He was completely lost in her smile, that he was able to see after so many days after that Lavanya's plan that almost managed to destroy their relationship.

Khushi looked back at him, "What happened Arnav ji? Why are you staring at me like this?"

"I'm happy to see this smile on your face.. Your happiness is the only thing that matters to me.. I'm happy now too.." Arnav said.

"My happiness is connected to you Arnav ji.. If you're not in my life, then there's no reason for me to smile.. I really hope that the faith I've in my heart for you defeats the doubt I've in my mind for you.." Khushi said.

"I'm sure it will.." he said.

****************************************************************

At 1 am..

Aman's house..

"All this happened and you didn't even told me.." Aman frowned.

"I'm telling you now.." Arnav pointed out.

"You should have told me that day only ASR.. I would have shown that Lavanya's true face in front of Khushi bhabhi.." Aman said.

"I know.. You can do anything, you're my genie, Aman.. but in my relationship with Khushi, you better stay inside the lamp always!" Arnav said.

"How mean!" Aman pouted, "Khushi bhabhi didn't trust you and you're saying to me to not poke my nose in your relationship.."

"It's nothing like that.. I believe that me and Khushi share a relationship now and we both should be able to solve our problems without any third person's help.. If we keep relying on third person's to solve our issues, then think for how long our relationship will last?" Arnav said.

"You know I thought you wouldn't be able to handle a girl in your life looking at your history of work, no time for girlfriend all the time.. but you're quite mature at handling relationships ASR.." Aman smiled amused.

Arnav rolled his eyes, "There's nothing ASR can't do ok!"

"You can't be pregnant, can you?" Aman mocked.

Arnav glared at Aman who chuckled back at him.

"But seriously yaar.. How can Khushi bhabhi be so dumb like this? Couldn't she show trust on you? It's so obvious that Lavanya is lying to her.." Aman sighed sadly.

"Aman don't speak bad about Khushi.. Maybe any girl in her place would have reacted like that.. first that video and then I don't even know what story Lavanya cooked up and told her that made her think I'm the villain.. Also when first time I met with her, without knowing her truth I went on and leaked that video spoiling her reputation, breaking Payal's marriage, and made her leave her own city.. I spoiled her life Aman.. Why when it's me it's valid and when it's her time you're calling her dumb?" Arnav asked.

"That time you didn't trust her because you didn't even knew her.." Aman said.

"Exactly.. I didn't even knew her and that doesn't give me any damn right to judge her character Aman! But I did.. I did a mistake and she forgave me.. now she's doing a mistake, after making her realize that she's judging me wrong.. I will also forgive her!" Arnav said.

Aman smiled raising his hand in surrender mode, "Okay.."

"If you don't want my help, then you can prove your innocence by yourself na.. I mean you can make Lavanya say the truth to her.. or even find out who leaked that video.. That will lead us to Lavanya as well and Khushi bhabhi will have proofs of your innocence then.." Aman said.

"Aman you know that I could have proved my innocence that minute only Khushi doubted on me.. but if I had done that, then I would need to do that everytime.. I want her to realize by herself that her Arnav can't do what Lavanya accused me of.." Arnav said.

Aman nodded understanding Arnav's view.

"Let's sleep.. It's getting late!" Aman said jumping on the bed where Arnav was lying comfortably.

"Wait.. What? You're not going to sleep with me.." Arnav said as he stood up from Aman's bed.

"Oh come on.. I'm sure Khushi bhabhi wouldn't mind.. I'm no threat to her.. I'm a real man!" Aman said.

"What the.. I will share my bed with a woman, not a man!" Arnav rolled his eyes moving himself to the couch near the bed.

"Didn't you sleep with Akash ever?" Aman asked.

"That when I was kid.. Now I'm a man!" Arnav said.

"Acha! (Oh really)" Aman smiled mischievously and ran to the couch, jumping on Arnav.

Arnav groaned in pain, "What the.. Aman get off me!"

Aman laughed at him, Arnav shook his head and took his phone that was ringing constantly, he received a video call from Khushi which he answered and at the same was scolding Aman and asking him to get off him.

The moment the scene where Aman was on top of Arnav appeared on Khushi's phone screen, she widened her eyes and screamed on top her voice horrified.

Aman and Arnav stopped their childish fight when they heard her scream, they looked at the phone's side and gulped seeing her reaction.

"Khushi it's not what you're thinking.." Arnav explained.

****************************************************************

Gupta house..

"Khushi bitiya what happened?" Garima and Buaji rushed to Khushi who was stood still in her room with a shocked expression.

Garima and Buaji peeked to see what she saw in her phone that made her scream like this. At that time, Arnav and Aman managed to adjust themselves and sat on the couch properly.

Arnav faked a smile and waved at Garima and Buaji.

"Are.. yeh toh Arnav bitwa hai (This is Arnav bitwa only).. What is wrong with this mad girl?" Buaji smacked Khushi's head and took Garima with her out of the room.

Arnav sighed in relief when they left, "Look Khushi.."

"What were.. you and Aman ji doing?" Khushi asked.

"Khushi I'm seriously a man, don't eye me like I'm a gay now.." Arnav said.

"Actually Bhabhi I was telling him to sleep on same bed with me.. but he's denying!" Aman said.

Khushi hiccupped on hearing this, her eyes went wide again.

Arnav glared at Aman.

"Forget him, tell me what happened? Why you called me at this hour? Is everything alright?" Arnav asked worried.

"No.. after engagement party, Jiji and Akash ji left for a dinner date secretly.. Amma, Buaji and Buaji don't know anything.. and she didn't return yet.. thank God both of them didn't check that I placed pillows under our blanket to look like Jiji is sleeping.. I'm very worried now.. It's 1 am and Jiji isn't at home.. What if anyone finds out?" Khushi said.

"Don't worry.. I will do something.. I will bring Payal home.. you don't worry.. Go and sleep.." Arnav said.

Khushi nodded her head.

****************************************************************

"There they are.." Aman shouted pointing to a couple standing leaned on the car.

Arnav parked the car and both got down the car, walking towards Payash.

"Akash.." Arnav called out.

Akash and Payal turned to Arnav and were surprised to see them here.

"What are you both doing here?" Aman asked.

"Why didn't you take Payal home yet? Didn't you see the time yet or what?" Arnav asked in disbelief.

"Arnav ji we were waiting to see the sunrise together.." Payal said shyly.

Akash nodded smiling lovingly at his Lady Love.

Arnav and Aman looked at each other for a while.

"Haan bhai.. just some hours are left for the sun to rise.." Akash said excitedly.

"Okay.." Arnav sighed and leaned on the car staring at the dark sky waiting for the so called sun rise.

Aman kept his both hands on his hip, crying to himself and staring at the sky: Where am I trapped yaar? I could have been sleeping at my home sweet home but no.. I've to wait madly in love couple to watch the sunrise together!

Arnav once again received Khushi's call, "Arnav ji did you find both? Is Jiji coming back home with you?"

"No, you should open the window and wait for the sunrise.. because only after the sunrise, you will see your Jiji back home!" Arnav said.

"What?" Khushi asked confused.

Arnav explained to her, Khushi face palmed with crying look: Couldn't Jiji wait for the time she gets married to watch the sunrise with Akash ji peacefully?

"Let them watch the sunrise now, after marriage they will have another things to do!" Arnav said.

"Shameless!" Khushi said.

Arnav smirked, "You should sleep now otherwise my shameless talks won't let you get any sleep!"

"Okay!" Khushi said blushing.

****************************************************************

"There is the sun! Look.. Aww it's so beautiful!" Payal shouted smiling brightly.

Arnav and Aman woke up startled from their half-sleep.

"It's time to go home! Finally.. Thank you Sun ji.." Aman said smiling.

"Shall we go home now?" Arnav asked.

"How unromantic you both are!" Akash said.

Arnav and Aman glared at him.

"What now? Don't tell me you want to click a selfie with the sun now?" Arnav asked sarcastically.

"Arnav ji is right.. We should go back home.. otherwise Amma, Buaji and Bauji will scold me badly.." Payal said.

Arnav and Aman sighed in relief while Akash pouted sadly.
