PART 10
" Hi baby'.. I am going to have my dinner with clients' you too please have it and don't cry'and ya smile now.
Khushi was not happy with what he said' She had dreamt about this night with him in his arms and here he was planning to go and attend his meeting. She turned her back towards him feeling bad.
Arnav: (getting worried) Khushi' Khushi please listen to me.
************************
She was still facing her back towards him' He was feeling bad now but'..
He will have to do something now to make her feel good.
He came closer to her from behind and gave a peck on her left cheek..
Her eyes went round .She was shocked at his sudden behavior.. Here she was disturbed with the thought of him leaving and here he was busy romancing..
He turned her around to look into his eyes..
Aranv: Khushi babu sorry'I love you'.I really love you a lot..accha mujhe ab nikalnaa hoga'. {i got to go now... } So my dear wife can I go now??
Khushi: She was still sad but nodded her head in approval with a heavy heart as she never wanted her husband to face any loss because of her.
Arnav: Khushi mujhe bahar tak chodne nahi aaogi? {Khushi, won't you leave me till outside?}
Khushi: humnn'.
Arnav brought his hand forward and she held his hand in a tight grip. They both left outside towards his car.
Khushi was still crying a bit'.tears was rolling down her face. Arnav came near her and wiped her tears.
Arnav: (holding her face from her chin) Khushi please don't cry dear' If you will cry like this then I will not be able to go''.please don't make it hard for me... please. I promise we will talk at 12 today.
Khushi: Pakka?? {sure?}
Arnav: Yes dear I promise''.ab mai jaun??? {ya,i promise. Now can i go?}
Khushi: Humnn'
Arnav: Accha now you smile ok..(saying that he sat in his car gesturing her that we will talk.)
Khushi bid bye to him and was standing their till the car left from her sight. She came back to the house. Bua ji was coming out from her room when she saw Khushi standing at the door..
Bua ji: Kaa hua titaliyaa?? Arnav babua bari jaldi chale gaye'{what happened titaliyaa?Arnav babua left so soon?}
Khushi was unable to hear anything else.. She just hugged her tightly and started crying.
Bua ji: (getting worried) Are ae titaliya eehan aao hamre saath.. yahan baitho aura b batao ki kya hua?? {come with me and sit now. Tell me then what happened?}
Khushi told her entire thing about Arnav leaving for work'
Bua ji: Koi baat nahi bitiya'kaam me to eee sab laga rahat hai aur damaad ji kahe rahe na ki oo tumse baat karenge to bas'..ab rona band karo. {its okay dear, work has its own priorities. and anyway, Arnav beta told you that he will call you at night. Then now stop crying.}
Chalo ab jaldi se kuch banae lo'pet ma chuhe daur lagavat hai..{Now quickly make something to eat. mice are running in my stomach.}

Arnav: Do it as I say'..ya Happy ji know about it'.yes no I can't come there personally. It will be risky (pause)'. Ya I have send Aman'he will check the arrangements'.yaa'ok fine. (he remembered tear rolling down her face in morning.) He looked at the phone saying sorry to disappoint you Khushi in morning.. I will make your every tear turn into happiness and I promise that.

(later around 8 p.m.)
Khushi was still thinking about him in her room'.. She received a message.. it was from Arnav.
Won't be able to call
Love you-
Your Laad governor'..only yours"
She read this message again and again. This one message brought a smile on her face'
Each minute felt like an hour for both of them. Where Khushi was waiting for clock to strike 12 so that she can talk to him Arnav was winding up his work to reach home as early as possible.

[IN RM]
Nani ji: Chote yahaan aaiye'{chotte, come here.}
Arnav: (he came and sat beside her) Ji naani
Nani ji: Chote aap subah se aapan office ma hai'hum chahat hai ki aap ab Khushi bitiya ke paas jakar thoda waqt bitayen. {you are in the office since morning today. I want you to spend some time with Khushi.}
Arnav: Ji nani mai jaanta hoon'.. aap chinta mat kijiye. {I know Nani, you don't worry.}
(nk and anjali were entering the hall when they saw Arnav and nani talking)
Nk: Oye Hoye''Nannav ko sharmana bhi aata hai' {oh ho. Nannav can be feeling shy too.}
Anjali: Sab hamari Khushi ji ka jaadu hai'..kyun chote??? {its all Khushi ji's magic, right chotte?}
Arnav: Di aap log bhi na'.and Nk tumhara time bhi aaega'.tab poochunga mai {Di. . you two na. Uff. and NK,your time will also come soon. Will see you then. } (saying this he went to his room or to say their bedroom).

[GH]
Khushi was sitting on the chair and looking at the clock'it showed 10:00.. She was desperately waiting for his call'.for the clock to hit 12.
Khushi: (thinking) Par hum 12 bajne ka inthzaar kyun kare ?? Hum to abhi bhi unse baat kar sakte hai. {why to wait till 12.00 , i can still talk to him.} She got excited and dialed his number but to her bad luck his phone was busy
Ye aur inke vo stupid clients'.zaroor un bandaro ki shadi nahi hui hogi' varna jab biwi baal nochti to sari akal thikane aa jati'.tab dekhte hum ki kaise saal ke akhiri din hamare Arnav ji ko yun bulate'{Uff, Arnavji and his stupid client. i guess those monkey clients of his are still un married, or else when their wife would have pulled their hair, then they would have known. Then i would see how they dare to call my Arnavji at last day of the year.}
(putting her fingers in her mouth) Ab ham jakar jalebiyaan hi bana lete hai' tabtak samay bhi beet jayega. {i should make some jalebis to spend the time.} (saying this she went into kitchen and started preparing jalebies)
[in RM]
Arnav entered their bedroom, took out a suit from his cupboard and placed it on bed. He remembered what nani ji said and thought of something and a smile appeared on his face.
Arnav: I am coming Khushi''just one more hours'.1 hours'
****
Khushi as always prepared large heap of jalebies and still one hour was left. She thought of distributing it in relatives and so she went outside' Something different caught her attention.
Khushi walked few steps'A man was standing at some distance facing his back towards her. She could recognize him but what was he doing here??? At this time??. She went near him and patted his back'
But his surrounding surprised her more'..She was unable to understand anything.
Precap: New year night...
