The day passed as all in the shantivan were immersed in their own thoughts.

How's future going to be?

How did their trusted son-in-law turned out to be this vile man?

or

Were they oblivious to his cruel double-faced activities since he has been the son-in-law of the raizada family?

Arnav left in the morning directly after hearing the two sisters emotional talk.

No one is in any state to be able to notice others situation or pain..They indulged in their own thoughts and pain by the sudden turn of events.

Khushi spent her entire day in the room only by doing embroidery on a plain saree, reading books and only came out of the room for her meals after the everyone's exit.

Evening:-

Khushi is doing her half-finished embroidery on a yellow saree at the poolside sitting on couch.

Arnav stepped into their bedroom and noticed her absence. he took off his blazer and had thrown it on the couch and went to poolside. He stared at her as she involved in embroidering her sari.

He noticed her as she has been wearing same sari since morning but her plaited hair kept as bun at the back of her head and it highlighted her long swan like neck.

"where are your thoughts going arnav,? stupid" he cursed himself.

he checked the time as he didn't see when he exited from the office.

"6:30 pm."

At that time hariprakash came from the poolside stairs with a plate of snacks.

'Bhaabi..ye aap ke liye payal bhaabi ne bheje the.'

"Wahaan rakh dijiye." she didn't even look up as she is threading the colorful flower design.

'Ji.' he kept it on the side table and saw the arnav looking at them no at khushi bhaabi. He left from there silently.

Arnav observed her for sometime. He sighed and went near to her.

He took the deck chair and sat next to her.

She jerked as something touched her lips.
'Samosa.'

"Hm.. Payal send them for you. But you didn't even glance at them. Poor them like me." He joked and whispered the last words.

She glanced at his hand holding a samosa near to her lips.

'I've already eaten and I'm not hungry anymore.' she raised up to leave.

"Where are you going?. Just sit for some time." he kept the plate away from them.

She sighed and sat down.

"Excellent design. I hadn't seen you doing this work till now. And It looks beautiful on you."
