Chapter 20


It was around 8:15 and the kids had nothing in hand they were struggling with a plan, after all it was not easy 2 play cupid especially when the targets were on war most of the time.
Annika: what if we again put them in the same room they will have 2 talk to each other, they cant keep quite for too long
Anuj: Aarti already did that we need to think of something else but what
Aarti: yes anuj bhaya is right we cant do that again, this time we have to do something which is big.
The kids were talking when ratna came in to meet them and spend some time with them.
Aarti: hi nanima
Ratna: hi aarti betya what are u all doing
the three looked at each other confused not wanting to reveal the plan to her then Annika said
Annika: oh nothing nani we were just sitting around and spending time together its been long since the 3 of us did that
Ratna: (smiled) good i am so glad that you are doing so, its good to see you all together like this
Hp came down to the room and interrupted to call Ratna
HP: Maim sahab La madam has come down
Ratna looked at him with no reaction and said she will be right down and on the other hand the kids were worried they didnt want La to ruin anything for Mission Arshi
All of them went down to the hall and saw La sitting waiting for them well actually waiting for Arnav
La: hi aunti how are you
Ratna: (smiled and said) i am fine and you
La: i am good waiting for ASR
Ratna nodded the kids were really not happy La tried to talk to them but neither of them was responding properly thus making La irritated and annoyed,  Hp came to tell lavanya that Arnav had called her to his room, she nodded and left from there
Meanwhile Khushi was in the laundry room ironing clothes the flash back stills of the kiss coming in her mind she was so stunned with her actions.
Khushi: how can i do such a thing like this, i am a simple indian girl and this is not what i have been brought up with (she started to have a heart to heart conversation with herself ) but then he instigated me for it i mean he was the one who went o and one about it not me, (pause and a her heart beat started to increase) although i must admit that it was the best thing ever (a smile appeared on her lips as she started to blush, but then she stopped and again came back 2 her sense)
Khushi snap out of it and get a grip of yourself you work for him nothing more understand what ever has to happen will happen concentrated on your work and leave everything to devi maya  (she mentally scolded herself)
Arnav's room
La entered and found ASR in deep though, thinking about the kiss with khushi. She tapped him on the shoulder and he snapped out of it and looked at her blank
La: hi ASR
Arnav: La what are you doing here
La: ASR did u forget you called me here remember to discuss the new fashion line
Arnav: (coming out of his trance remembering) oh yeah come let's sit
they sat down to work Arnav got very involved with the work in hand that for a while he forgot about khushi. until he heard some noise
Voice: come on kids this is not fair, i will catch you soon
Arnavs heart started to beat hearing the voice it was khushi's voice a small smile came on his lips without realising and La said
La: what is going on
Arnav: (snapping out of it said) i dont know
La: isnt that khushi's voice what is wrong with her (she complained)
Arnav: i dont know (he gave a blank look) wait here i will check
she nodded and then he went to check khushi was with the kids outside they were running around her and she was trying to catch them blind folded, as soon as she went near them they would slip away smartly, Anuj saw Arnav come he signalled his sisters and they moved away trying to get khushi close to him, She said not realizing
Khushi:  i am going to get you now
she caught hold of the first thing that came in her hand and held it tightly she griped him in and slolwy tried to touch his face his hard stubble hurt her and she screamed
Khushi: ouch
opening the blind fold she was stunned to see him in front of her and he was stunned to see her. they had a small eye lock deeply grazing into each other seeing each other her hand was on his chest she could feel his heart beat it felt so good. She shut her eyes without realizing to feel the rhythm and Arnav seemed to enjoy her reaction to it he started to breath heavily. He slolwy placed his hand on hers and she felt it and opened her eyes in a jiff of a second she removed it. The wind blew in the kids stood behind witnessing the whole thing.
There was an silence between both of them both didnt know what to say to the other espeially after the kiss and now this. Khushi took a deep breath and said
Khushi: sorry i thought that you were one of the kids i didnt mean to ... (she started to blush)
Arnav: (smirked and said softly) its ok.
there was silence again as both looked at each other until it was interrupted by la who came in and said
La: ASR whats taking so long come on in hunny
Arnav looked at her a bit baffled khushi and so did khushi who was burning with jealousy from within .
Arnav: i hav to go (he said softly to khushi)
she nodded and looked away a bit sad Arnav noticed and La dragged him inside
