The adulterous affair

Episode 16 - The priest's sayings and we meet again

Nutan: No no....Devyaniji... You must go there. You will get to know about our village. Thankur, you have to accompany them!

Thankur frowned but couldn't disobey his mother and he frowned. Arnav found this uneasy and excused himself as he badly wanted to see where Khushi was. Already he had wasted so much of time.

Arnav: I am not coming. You guys go. I am tired of driving.

Anjali: yes. yes. Sorry Chote you take rest.

Akash: Me too.. Even I am very tired.

Dadi: All right. you both stay here. We will go.

Soon Nani and the others went. This was the time Arnav was waiting. This was the moment he was waiting to search his love. Khushi where are you?? Soon Nutan told Arnav and Akash to rest in the guesthouse near their house. She took them out and it was 500 meters from their house. Two other servants took their luggage and came with them. There were two servants outside and they bowed seeing Thakurain maa. Soon Arnav and Akash went inside. As soon as Nutan made them comfortable and she went, they both leapt off the bed and sneaked out of the Guest house from the back side. Arnav asked Akash to ask the villagers about Khushi as most of them would know about him. He hid himself whenever Akash asked about her showing Khushi's photo to the villagers. Everybody who ever they met told that they don't know. They were searching and searching until they came across an old man who was standing out of a big house. Smaller than that of the Thakur's though but bigger than any of the other villager's. They both went and showed Khushi's photo to him. The man saw him and smiled.

Man: She is Khushi, my daughter. You have come to her location only. Who are you?

The man was none other than Seth Ratan. Arnav who was hiding came to his view. They both were shocked to know how this man addressed him as her father.

Arnav: We are her colleagues.

Ratan: Oh!! come inside. What are your names.

Akash: My name is Ak......aaaaaahhh!!!

Arnav had nudged him suddenly.

Ratan: What happened?

Akash: Nothing. My name is Akshay.

Akash knew what Arnav was trying to say. If they reveal their names, he may not let them inside. AS Khushi might have warned him to not let these two people inside.

Arnav: My name is Rahul Khurana.

Ratan led them in his hall. As he was about to call her name, Arnav stopped him. The Seth looked perplexed.

Arnav: By the way I would like to surprise her. Aka..I mean Akshay. Stay here.

Ratan nodded.

Arnav went upstairs, to the way where Ratan showed him. He felt Khushi. He felt that within a minute, he will be meeting her. His heart beat fast as he ascended the stairs. Soon he knocked the door where Ratan told Khushi was. The door was opened. The smirking chocolate brown eyes met a shocked hazelnut eyes.

Meanwhile in the old temple,

Everyone was in the temple praying. The pandit did pooja and the others were praying. Shyam eyed Sheetal praying. He was really confused with this new inclination towards her. What was in her that made him not take eyes off her? Nani and the others took the prashad from the pandit. Soon as they were about to go , they saw an old priest sitting in front of a very old door. The priest asked her to come.

Thakur: Don't go to him Naniji. He is bad.

The Thakur eyed him heinously. The old man smiled.

Old Priest: Soon there will be a new Thakur!
