“What are you doing here?” she was
gazing him suspiciously. He looked away
trying to recollect himself.
“What do you mean, what am I doing
here?!! Can’t you see I am on phone? And why did you come out of the bed? ” he
retorted.
She looked more suspicious… He
continued… “Damn it! Next time I will tie you down on the bed, Khushi…! You slipped
from those damn stairs, Khushi…! Can’t you be careful?” he yelled forgetting
the time. She had slipped alright, but his strong arms had saved her in time, scooping her above the ground..! She blew her top, snatching
the phone from his hand, she boomed.
“One more call in the middle of the
night and I will throw it in the pool…”
“Oh! Yeah?” he challenged her clasping
her wrist…! Her eyes flashed malice… she just dropped the cell on the floor releasing
her grip and he looked ghostly gaping at the shattered phone.
“How dare you, Khushi?” he came on
to her… She stood her ground.
“No more phone calls... See?” she
pointed at the broken phone on the floor.
He clenched his fists and picked up the pieces, carefully removing the
SIM and the SD card. She thumped her
hands on her hips…!
“Lady ASR…!” he smiled wickedly and
she turned ghostly…!
“How do you know?” she asked
pressing her hand on her mouth…!
“You think aloud, Khushi…!” he
actually grinned. She lost her heart..!
“He reads my mind…!” she thought and
he grinned again…
“Yes, I do!” he pulled her closer..!
“Remember? I threw your cell from
the car…?!!” he said holding her hand and she lost herself in the memory lane…!
“Chaliye…!” she pulled him along
… !!
“Let us go on a drive…” he said dreamily and she looked at him
surprised.
“At this hour of the night?” she
asked. He just held her hand and she walked with him….
They drove silently. She kept glancing at his grim face. He was lost in his thoughts…
“Its about Shamji…” She spoke
finally, gravely. He looked at her
startled. She smiled faintly…
“I know…” she said while he pulled
over the car.
“Khushi….” He sounded scared for the
first time… She looked at him and as if reading his thoughts, said…
“Everyone thinks he is dead… but he
is not… and now… may be… he… he…” he held her hand tightly.
“Khushi…. We have to be more
careful… I am worried about Di…!” he said gravely. She nodded and asked..
“Did you get any news…?” he
hesitated for a moment and then said affirmatively…
“He has come out of coma…” She gaped
in disbelief and then slowly shaking her head said…
“Wrong…!” he just gaped…
“False news… He is dead… I know… he
is dead… That Krishna Kant is playing games… I know, he is dead…!” his mouth
fell open… he was surprised by her confidence…
“He was dead, when he was shot in
that Thakur mansion….” She again said with confidence…
“Chaliye.. wapas chalatain hain…
Lets go back…” she said holding his hand.
He took a U turn and drove off silently.
She had closed her eyes…
“How do I tell her, that the news is
not false… he is alive..” Arnav kept glancing at Khushi..! Khushi was confident
that Sham was dead…! “Ignorance is bliss…” he gazed at his wife’s smiling face.
By the time they reached home, she
was fast asleep. He picked her up in his
arms and walked into the house….!
“Don’t worry… He is … dead… th..they
can’t do anything…” She blabbered in her sleep wrapping her arms around his
neck. He pulled her closer putting off
the lights, badly wanting to believe her…!
