Chapter 11 – Main hoon tumhara... Jalebi Bai (I am your... Jalebi Bai)
ASR thinks: I wish.. that we stay like this forever.. I love you so much!
Khushi thinks: Whenever I lay my head on your chest,... tumhare dadkanein se mujhe ek ajeeb sa sukoon miljata hai! (Whenever I lay my head on your chest,... From your heartbeats, I feel a strange peace.)
ASR thinks: But maybe you are right.. I should stay out of your way.
The Next Day
A smile forming on her lips, slowly she opens her eyes. Khushi slept well after long. She stretches her arms in bed lazily. She lifts her back from the bed and clutches her knees to her chest. As she breathes in the fresh air coming from the open doors of the terrace, she looked at the room confusingly.
Khushi: Mein yahan kaise aaye.. yesterday I... that means arnav brought me back to my bed. (How come I'm here.. yesterday I... that means arnav brought me back to my bed.)
She nods..
Khushi: yeh ladka bhi na.. I'm sure abhi tak naraaz hai! (This guy.. I'm sure he must be still angry!)
Suddenly her face glows with happiness and she smiled.
Khushi: Idea!... Mein uske liye jalebi banaoongi! Agar vo mere haat ke jalebi kayega, vo gussa bhi bhooljayega.. Yaaayyy...(Idea!... I'm gona make jalebi for him! If he eats the tasty jalebi from my hands, he'll even forget the anger.. Yaaayyy...)
Her happy expressions didn't last long as her mouth formed an O shape in shock. In panick, throwing all pillows aside, she searched for her mobile stuck into the blankets. She gets hold of it and her eyes popped out.
Khushi: Oh shit! 10 baje! prayers.. Aaj iss hitler mujhe maardalegi.. (Oh shit! 10 o'clock! prayers.. today hitler is definitely killing me..)
Suddenly she hears a voice from the door and lifts her head.
Payal: Acha aur kya mein chupchap dekhoongi? (Oh you think I'll let you getting killed?)
As she sees her babhi, she jumps from the bed rushing in to her arms..
Khushi: Good Morning Babhi.. How can I forget? Ke aap yahan mujhe bachane ke liye.. (Good Morning Babhi.. How can I forget? That you are here to protect me..)
Khushi raises her eyebrows questioningly.
Khushi: Hitler kuch zyada naraaz te kya? (Hitler was very angry?)
Payal: Don't worry meine usse bataya ke kal raat se tere sar mein daard hein! (Don't worry I told him that since yesterday night you had a headache!)
At her words Khushi lets a breath of relief.
Khushi: Thank god.. I was damn scared!
Payal: Acha you go fresh, mein kitchen mein hai,... aur haan lunch ke baad hum shopping mall jayegi.. Lavanyaji aur arnavji bhi hamare saat chalega.. kuch ghar ke samaan ke liye.. aur teri sagai ke kapre bhi lena hai. (ok you go fresh, I'll be in the kitchen,... and yeah we are going to shopping mall after lunch.. lavanyaji and arnavji are also coming with us.. for some stuffs for the house.. and we also have to buy the clothes for your engagement.)
Payal walks away without noticing the sudden change on Khushi's face.
Khushi thinks: How could I forget that after 2 days I'll be engaged?...
As she gets back from her thoughts, suddenly a smile appears on her sulking face.
Khushi: so what? I still have 2 days of my life.. And these 2 days I only want to remember all good things!
And she jumps in excitement and rushes to the bathroom.. After getting ready, she leaves her room and walking down the stairs, she spots Arnav and Lavanya working on some designs plan in the living room. As her eyes fell on Arnav, her steps stop and she stays idle for some moment staring at him. Arnav lifts his eyes off his files and sees Khushi in a beautiful blue salwar.
ASR thinks: She looks even prettier in traditional clothes.
Khushi smiled at him and Arnav brushes off his thoughts. Still in a serious look, he ignores Khushi and gets back to his work while Khushi sulks on his attitude.
Khushi thinks: What the hell? Nevermind...
She lifts her chin up and passing by the sofa, she walks tall arrogantly. As she enters the kitchen she jumps to Payal's neck happily yelling.
Khushi: Babhi!
Payal: Are kya hua?.. Kuch chaye kya? (What happen?..You want something?)
Khushi: Yes Babhi.. I want jalebi..
Payal: Tikein, I'll make for you in some time! (OK, I'll make for you in some time!)
Khushi: No Babhi.. I want to prepare it myself.
Payal: Acha Tikein! (Ok Fine!)
Payal steps out of the kitchen, and Khushi starts preparing the jalebi. Meanwhile she was focused on the jalebi and her idea to patch up with Arnav. She noticed that he was very angry and she also knows that it's her fault. She has been very harsh on him. But she knows that the ASR cannot be angry at her for long. After all she has to admit that she is his favorite among every girls. They slept together so many times but his care, the way he holds her, make love to her.. she never saw any signs of lust into him and unknowingly maybe that's the reason that after arnav she never slept with anyone else... she feels happy in his arms..
Khushi: Hogaya! Mere haath ke jalebi kayega, he'll forget his anger.. I'm sure! (Done! He'll eat the jalebi I made with my own hands, he'll forget his anger.. I'm sure!)
Placing the jalebi in a plate, she brings it to the living room. She steals a glance at the breakfast table where she spots Payal and Lavanya laughing and talking while sipping their coffee.
Khushi: Perfect!
She heads off to the sofa where Arnav was drowned into a file. Arnav was unaware of her presence when suddenly Khushi hands out the plate infront of his eyes..He lifts his chin up and looked into her mischievous eyes. She blinks her eyebrows in a puppy sad face with her pouted lips.
Khushi: Khalije na! Bahut tasty hein.. Apne haaton se bana hain meine.. sirf apke liye arnavji.. (Please eat! They are very tasty.. I'm made it myself.. only for you arnavji..)
Arnav looks the other way uninterested. However Khushi much more stubborn, she sat next to him still holding the plate in front of his eyes. Few meters away, Payal and Lavanya were so taken into their conversation that they didn't notice the proximity between Arnav and Khushi. She moves her thighs closer to his purposely and Arnav turns to her angrily. He stares into her eyes glinted with naughtiness while she picks a jalebi and lifts her hands to his mouth. Her voice didn't come one but Arnav sees her lips moves saying '' I'm sorry '' . In a move, he holds her hand stopping her while khushi felt hurt from his reaction. Her naughtiness disappears as they both stare into each other. As he sees the sadness reflecting onto her face, instantly his anger turns to care and love. Forgetting about everything else, Arnav's hold stays tight around her wrist and slowly he brings her hand with the jalebi to his mouth. As his lips brush her fingers while he bites into the jalebi, a smile curved on her lips. But the tasty jalebi was not meant to last.. Both Khushi & Arnav gets startled as a hand holds khushi's wrist stopping her from feeding Arnav...
