LOVABLE MURDERER ( Completed)

6 Khushi's Choice

Part 6 Khushi's choice

Shashi stood smilingly and about to leave, Khushi clutched his hand. Shashi looked at her.

"If YOU (she stressed in the same way as Shashi did) have no problem, I will marry Arnav." She said meeting Shashi's eyes boldly.

Shashi sat beside her again, not taking his eyes from her face.

"It's YOU who is going to be worried than me if I'm not happy in my life, Babuji. So, it's your problem... not mine." Khushi said sternly.

Shashi stunned, seeing her advanced level of thinking ability.

"But you are the one who is going to live with Arnav," Shashi said the reality.

"I will accept anything which is coming into my life, Babuji. If Arnav is destined for me, I'm fine with that. I will try my best to make the relationship work."

She said and it was a solid assurance, no one could give. Shashi supposed. He touched her head lovingly.

"Arnav is a good guy beta. His fate played worse in his past. He deserves a happy life. I don't think, he will get an understanding girl like you. And Ratnaji and Arvind are good in-laws no one could get." He said caringly.

"I trust you Babuji. You will do anything, only for our betterment." She smiled.

Shashi felt so proud... correction... Khushi made him feel proud.

He went to his room and saw Garima sleeping. He knew Garima will not be fine with this marriage. Don't know what explosion he has to face tomorrow morning when he says his decision to her.

The next morning

When Shashi woke up, NK and Khushi were not at home. NK went to drop Khushi at her friend's house. Garima came with coffee as usual. Shashi waited until she finishes the coffee.

"Garima, I want to talk to you an important matter."

"Tell me," She asked, sipping the coffee.

"I have been decided to get Khushi and Arnav married." He came to the point straight.

"Whaaaaat! What did you say?" Garima asked shockingly.

Keeping the cup on the tea table, she stood furiously.

"What you heard is right."

"Have you gone mad? How could you decide without talking to me?"

"Look, Garima... Arnav is a good guy...."

"He killed his wife.... Are you thinking to fulfill his wife's place with our daughter? What father you are? How could you dare ruin my daughter's life? I will never let it happen.... Never..." She shouted.

"Don't get temper Garima. I had analyzed everything..."

"What have you analyzed? Haaannnn? She is just twenty-one and he....? Thirty-one..."

"I and you have the same age difference... don't forget that...."

"That's why you are making decisions without talking to me... That's why you are making me dance to your words..."

"Garima, do you think I will ruin our daughter's life?"

"Until now, I never thought so... but I was wrong it seems...what will Khushi think about you if she gets to know about your decision?"

"She is ready to marry Arnav," Shashi said calmly.

"Whaaaat!" Her shock was not estimated.

"She agreed to marry Arnav."
