Chapter 15: Day 3 - Perfect Together

Chapter 15: Day 3 - Perfect together

His mobile rang and Arnav got back to present. He saw the caller id and got his bluetooth to his ears.

ASR: Yes panditji... I'll be here with Khushi tomorrow, you go on with the arrangements... Ok, thanks.

Few hours later

Location: Hotel Restaurant

It was dinner time. Arnav and Aman were missing from the dinner table and Karan who was at the buffet was dead worried. While Payal and Anshu were happily gossiping, Yuvi's attention was on Khushi who was constantly staring at the restaurant entrance. Yuvi smirks at his thoughts.

Yuvi thinks: I bet she'll breath peacefully in few seconds.

And he turned his eyes towards the door smirking at Arnav who walked into the restaurant. As Khushi spots Arnav, unknowingly she felt a relief but her expression changes when Karan comes beside her. He places his plate on the table and to the displeasure of Khushi he pulls the seat next to her. She looked away, irritated when suddenly Yuvi called out Karan.

Yuvi: hey karan, can you just borrow the menu card from the nearby table? I hate buffet, I pefer to be served like a king, right anshu baby?

And he gives his naughty smirk as he turns his eyes towards Anshu. Karan leans towards the other table and borrows the menu card.

Yuvi thinks: Unbelievable! Like to be served like a king? You owe me one Arnav..

As Karan turns back to his seat, Arnav lays his hand on the seat and Karan lifts his eyes towards him. He looked at Arnav and then towards Aman standing next to Arnav. He was terrified.. Arnav was fuming inside.. He never liked the way this Karan looks at Khushi and now he knows that this guy is trouble, he just cannot tolerate him near Khushi.. But he was helpless, for the moment he had to pretend that nothing is wrong. So Arnav calm his nerves and in a cool voice..

ASR: Karan, this seat is reserved! do you mind shifting to the over side?

Karan was dumb. Khushi looked at Arnav and then stares at Karan. A grin appears on her face as she hears the stamerring of Karan.

Karan: no..no Sir..

When suddenly Yuvi interrupts him.

Yuvi: Karan come sit here, we need to discuss about the next meeting with Mr Khurana.

Anshu looked at Yuvi askance and he stamers back his words.

Yuvi: I mean the meeting with dad.

And Anshu gives him a "that's better" look while Yuvi breathes a sign of relief. Without another word, Karan moved next to Yuvi and Arnav pulls the chair and sits by the side of Khushi. Khushi turns to Arnav and their eyes met. A shy smile appears on her face and inwardly Arnav was jumping out of joy. Khushi was lost in his deep eyes. Even after so much happened, it felt so right to be with him. The way he looks at her. The way he cares and protects her.. Suddenly Anshu called out her name, bringing Khushi back to present. She breaks the eyelock turning towards Anshu.. She looked at Anshu in confusion, embarassed with her own state while Arnav was silently observing her every expressions.

ASR thinks: Gosh, she's so beautiful!

Anshu: Khushi where are you lost? Come on joke with us? It's more fun now that Aman is here.. Just look at him!

Sitting on the other side of the table, both Payal and Aman were blushing. They've become the fun talks of the evening as on their face it's clearly written "I like Payal" "I like Aman". While Payal and Aman has been stealing glances at each other, the gang couldn't stop laughing, especially Anshu who was bent on playing matchmaker. But what she missed seeing was clear to her lover boy.. the sparks between Arnav and Khushi.

Anshu: They look so good together.. Come on Payal, just say it once, and we can get married on the same day.. That should be fun.

Anshu clapped her hands in excitement while Payal lowers her eyes in embarassment. Yuvi looked towards Khushi and Arnav out of the corners of his eyes and turns back to Anshu with a smirk..

Yuvi: Anshu baby, do you know who else look perfect together?

Like a happy kid, Anshu yells his two favorite names.

Anshu: Saif and Bebo..

As everyone laugh at her surprising answer, Yuvi nods in disbelief while he hits her forehead lovingly.

Yuvi: No dumbo..

Anshu looked at Yuvi with confusion.

Anshu: then who?

Yuvi: ARNAV & KHUSHI

Her spoon fell from her hands as Khushi hears his last words. She was shocked, embarassed, tensed. She lifts her eyes from her food and looked at the amazingly surprised Anshu.

Anshu: Oh yeah, how could I not see this?

Khushi turns towards Arnav, and gets a sexy flirty smirk from him.

Anshu: Arnav what do you think about Khushi? do you like her?

Anshu was being so innocent that she didn't notice Khushi's state. Khushi was angry, shy, embarassed and at the same time, she so wanted Arnav to reply at Anshu's question. Arnav takes his time and stares at Khushi. She gets hold of her spoon and gets back to her food well aware of Arnav's eyes on her. And then suddenly her world froze at his words..

ASR: If you say, I'll marry her right now..

Khushi stays idle. Anshu was happily yelling while Yuvi smirks. Payal and Aman manage to raise a smile and Karan... Fuming like a volcano!

Anshu: Oh god! That means he likes Khushi..

Having no response from a frozen Khushi, Anshu lays her hands on hers and utters...

Anshu: Khushi.

Startled, she raised her chin up and in a hurry...

Khushi: Excuse me, I'm done..

With her stern look, she stands and moves away from the table ignoring the voices calling her out. Arnav also steps away and follows her while Anshu glares angrily at Yuvi. Anshu hits him hard on his chest and Yuvi cries out of pain.

Yuvi: awww..

Anshu: Yuvi, why did you do this? you are so stupid, now because of us, Khushi felt bad and she even left her dinner.. I'm not talking to you..

Yuvi moves closer to her and passes his arms around her shoulders.

Yuvi: Sweetheart, can't you see baby.. what's between these two?

Anshu, Payal, Aman and Karan looked at him in confusion while Yuvi smiled proudly.

Yuvi: I'm just giving a kick to a new love story..

And he winks at Anshu.

On the other side, Arnav followed Khushi but she already went away into the lift. He gets into another lift and till he finally reach to her room, Khushi slams the door on his face. Khushi paced the room for hours, swearing Arnav of all names. Time passed by, it was almost midnight and she gets into her nightie but sleep was far away. In his bed, Arnav was as restless as Khushi.. Laying on his back, he stares at the ceiling when suddenly he jerks up.

ASR: Why the hell did I said I'll marry her?
