Epilogue

It was a warm night one which silent and peaceful. The wind blew in. Arnav stood near the french windows looking out at the darkness while his wife slept on the bed with their new born baby Arush . He had the most peaceful look on his face as he looked up at the moon. It had been 5 years to their marriage things had changed so much. A smirk came on his face when he thought of the past 5 years. He still remembered how Khushi and he confessed their love. All that drama that they did. He remembered how he had to pretend with Lavanaya to get her jealous and hows she reached with the children and tried to stop him from getting engaged. A chuckled escaped his throat. Since then the journey has been the most wonderful thing he has ever experienced.

After they discovered their love they gathered the family together, Every one wondered why they had been suddenly called. Even Khushi's family arrived there. Arnav and Khushi held hands Khushi blushed furiously and Arnav smirked and then he went up to Shashi and said to him in a calm voice

Arnav: I have gathered every one over here because Khushi and I would like to make an announcement. (he looked at Shashi then sat new to him and said) Uncle I would like to ask Khushi's hand in marriage. I promise you that I will always love her and protect her and never let anything bad happen to her.

They heard loud gasps coming every one looked shocked. Slowly the room filled with smiles Khushi looked down blushing not able to face them. Shashi smirked and then went up to Khushi and asked her in a loving tone

Shashi: DO you want to marry him

Khushi looked down and blushed then she nodded Shashi broke into a smile. He looked at Arnav and then said

Shashi: You have my permission.

Arnav smiled back and so did Khushi. Ratna and Nani couldn't be more happier. they were thrilled that Khushi was going to be their daughter in law. Arnav explained how the kids helped get them together. Ratna was not surprised at them, They were Anjili's children her traits were in them. She would also usually play cupid to people.

Buaji and Gaima were happy that Khushi was settling down in life she had found a good life partner. Akash also confessed his love to Payal and their engagement got fixed as well. Shashi couldnt ask for more because both his daughter got married in the same house and they were good people. He was particularly fond of Arnav he knew Arnav was the perfect choice for his mad crazy but yet adorable daughter. 

Things looked great the celebrations started in full swing. Every news paper covered their wedding after all it was the wedding of The Great Arnav Singh Raizada. Their love story became known to every one and people smiled on how god brought these two individuals together to live their life. They only wished well for them and happiness in the coming years. 

The children had took Arnav and Khushi as their parents. Arnav in his wildest dreams didn't think he would ever get along with the children. His sister was right he needed to be more friendly to them only then he would understand them. He had Khushi to thank for that. She was the one who pushed him to it. Now he couldn't imagine life with out the 4 of them they were the most important thing to him. He promised to love them and protect them. Especially his little Aarti he had gotten so close to the little one. She was his angel his princess.

After they got married they took off the next day for their honeymoon to Hawaii. Khushi had never been to a beach in her life. Arnav thought of this as a perfect option for their honeymoon. They went out Arnav convinced Khushi to wear short dresses and go out. He wanted her to try new things and also she looked mind blowing in those dresses he couldn't take his eyes off of her. They had sex every night the first night she lost her virginity too him was the most special one. He still remembers 

Flash Back 

Khushi: Arnavji I am scared what if it hurts

Arnav: Shh trust me it will hurt in the beginning but hold on to me tightly and you will love it. 

KHushi nodded and then he thrust into her pulling in and out and she yelled for him 

Kushi: Arnaji... oh oh Oh yeah 

Arnav made sure she enjoyed the experience to the fullest 

That night the two souls became one. 

Flash back ends 

When they came back from Hawaii they got loads of presents for the children. Khushi had spent half her honeymoon sopping for the kids then her. Arnav found it weird but none the less he knew how attached she was to them they were her babies. They were glad to be back. He couldn't believe 5 years passed. Annika was 20 now she had gone to New York to peruse her dream in fashion. How time flies He remembered how much he tried to stop her from going but his wife and the whole house hold had put their foot down saying it was for her education. He remembered the day they went to settle her in new york Khushi and he both went. He came back early for some business work but Khushi stayed there for 1 month settling her in. Anuj was now 17 years old, his naughty streak was still in him. But this time there was a twist he was such a ladies man. All the young girls in his class dies to go out with him. Anuj had a blast flirting with them. But he promised Khushi that he would never date just for fun he would find the right girl and then he would start dating. He couldn't refuse his Chotti ma could he. Aarti was now 10 years old. She was now president of the girls scout group. Every tuesday she would bake cookies with Khushi and they would sell them in the neighborhood. It was a mother daughter team. Khushi was more than happy to participate with Aarti in it. Here is the best part to make Aarti win the competition  he would buy off half the cookies, and he would not buy them himself he would make his staff buy it. If Khushi found out that he bought of all them she would kill him. She wanted to play fair and he wanted to just see a smile on both his favorite women's faces. 

Things were looking so good. Until one fine day the sad news of Nani passing away came. The family was devastated and depressed. Khushi always looked up to her and repeated her. Before she died she told Khushi that she would want her Chottey and her to have a baby. Khushi obeyed her within a few months they got the news that she was pregnant. Annika flew down from New york to help Khushi through the pregnancy. Arnav made sure that he always came home early so he could spend enough time with her. Khushi was the center of attention. Her every wish was fulfilled even if they were impossible. 

Time passed by and finally her dew date came. which was yesterday. They had such a hectic night Khushi was crying helplessly as Akash drove the car in full speed to the hospital. Arnav was sitting at the back with Khushi consoling her. Her sister payal and her daughter nishita sat in in front, The 3 kids sat behind trying to make her laugh. when they reached they took her to the delivery room and she was told by the doctor to push. Arnav held her hand and whispered sweet nothings in her ear. Encouraging her to push. FInally when she pushed her last they heard the baby crying and the doctor announced it was boy. The couple smiled in unison. They handed her the baby Arnav kissed Khushi looking at his son. He looked just like him. Ratna and the whole family rejoiced. They all took turns holding him Arnav and Khushi chuckled seeing their son being the center of attraction. He was so cute. He had eyes like Arnavs. A nose like Khushi's and a beautiful smile. But his personality was just like Arnav's grumpy and only wanting his mother and father. 

Finally they came home they had an exhausting night finally little Arush fell asleep when his mother picked him up and placed him on the bed. Thats when Arnav woke up and went to the windows and remembered his amazing 5 years. 

Now he looked up at the sky a smile on his face. The first star that he saw shone brightly as ever. He said looking at the star remembering his sister 

Arnav: Thank You for everything.

The star shone brightly. Khushi would stretched her hand on the bed looking for her husband found it empty she woke up to find him standing at the windows. She placed two pillows on either side of baby Arush so he doesn't fall and then headed over to her husband. She hugged him from behind and rested her head on his back. He felt her and then pulled her in front and hugged her from behind and then she asked him in a soft voice. 

Khushi: Arnavji what happened are you not sleepy 

Arnav: I just wanted to watch the stars. 

Khushi: Are you missing DI again 

Arnav: Yeah I am. (he smiled and the kissed her forehead) I was just remembering what all we have gone through since the past 5 years. 

Khushi: (smiled) Yeah these 5 years have been the best ever.

Arnav: Thanks Khushi for what you did to me. With out you I dont know how I would have managed 

Khsuhi: (hugged him tightly and said) I should thank you, YOu gave me so much. 3 wonderful nieces and nephew. 1 big happy family so much love that it could last for a life time and now 1 adorable little son. Arnavji I couldn't have asked for more. Devi maya has really blessed us 

Arnav smiled back at her kissed her forehead and took her into a big hug. They stayed that way for a while until their hug broke with the sound of their baby crying Both chuckled and the Arnav said 

Arnav: Its your turn 

Khushi: (slapped him playfully) No Arnavji its yours. Last time I picked him up 

Arnav: He only keeps quite with you, He loves his mother a lot 

Khushi: (widened her eyes and said) He loves his father too you know. 

Arnav: (rolled his eyes but then said) Ok lets both cuddle him up. 

KHushi: (smiled back) That sounds perfect 

They headed to the bed Arnav got in from his side and Khushi got in from hers. She placed her hand on baby Arush and Arnav wrapped his hands around her Arush and her pulling them into a hug protecting them and making them feel warm. Arush stopped crying feeling his parents near him. 

Seeing the loving family all cuddled up into a nice warm bundle the stars slowly started to appear in the night sky glowing feeling happy for the match that was made in heaven.
