PART 8 A
Arnav closed his eyes remembering the tear drop on her face when she rushed in the washroom at Gupta house
Arnav: KHUSHII'..(his voice was soft, full of love and concern) tum theek ho??? {are you okay?}
Khushi clutched the phone more tightly between her hands hearing his voice. She tried to speak but she couldn't. Words were not coming out from her mouth. She placed the phone near her chest and started sobbing trying not to make any sound. Arnav could feel that. The little ego that was left in him was now gone' No matter what he can't see her crying'.
Arnav: (in concerned voice) Khushi plz. Mujse baat karo. Tum theek ho??? ruko mai abhi vahan aata hoon.. {plz Khushi, talk to me. Are you okay? wait,i will come there..}
( saying this he moved towards the table to pick his car keys when he heard her speaking)
Khushi:(wiping her tears) Hum theek hai Arnav ji'Vo bua ji hume bula rahi hai. Hum aapse kal baat kare??{i am okay Arnavji.. actually,buaji is calling me. can we talk later?}
Arnav: Khushii??(he understood that Khushi was making an excuse)
Khushi: Arnav ji please hum baad me baat kare?? {Arnavji plz, can we talk later?}
Arnav: (nodded) and hung up the phone disappointed thinking about giving her some time.
[ After their re- marriage it was the first night when they were not spending the night in each others arm. Whenever khushi go to Gupta house to meet her family Arnav use to make sure that he pick her up at night while returning to RM. And one day when she had to stay there she made an plan of faking a leg sprain so that Arnav can get an excuse to come and stay with her there.]
***********
[RM]
The night seems to be never ending'each second without being close to the other one was equivalent to a torture'both were craving for each other'with them'beside them. Arnav didn't wanted to sleep on bed today'he was missing her' her sweet yet little annoying continuous blabbering, her soft hands ruffling his hair, their good night kiss. He went and laid down on the recliner. He was tossing and turning thinking about her trying to get some sleep.But sleeps was playing its own hide and seek with him today
[GH]
This little separation was affecting Khushi too in the same manner. She too was turning on bed thinking about him.
Unable to get any sleep she went and stood beside the room window opening the window door looking at the moon as if trying to say something to it. To convince it
[RM]
Here Arnav was still resting on recliner when he sensed something' something known to him'.something very much familiar. It felt as if someone was calling him.
He was not sure what was exactly happening to him.. He went to the poolside and looked at the sky. He didn't know why but to his surprise today he was focusing more on moon other than those stars.. He felt that moon wanted to convey something to him' as if it was the moon now that can bring him some peace, can give him some sort of satisfaction. Thinking all this he closed his eyes to feel that hidden meaning and he heard the sweet voice ARNAV JI' (listening to it he whispered Khushiii). Both of them were again silent on both the sides speaking volumes through their emotions'..through their silence and moon being the mediator between these love birds.
KYUN KHWABON PE TERE SAAYE HAI
DIL KYUN HAI TANHA MERA
KYU KHAMOSHI HAI ZUBAAN MERI
ASHKON SE KEH PAU NAA
KYUN DARD HAI ITNA
TERE ISHQ ME
RABBA VE'RABBA VE'RABBA VE RABBA VE
After talking to each other for hours like this both were satisfied to some extent. Khushi went to her bed holding his white shirt that she brought with her while coming back to gupta house without letting him know. She could feel his smell, his presence beside her and finally she slept.
Here Arnav too went to the recliner and tried to sleep.
