42 Wooing Arnav

Part 42 Wooing Arnav

Arnav came to RM. The first job he did was calling Khushi but her phone was still switched off that annoyed Arnav like hell. He thought she would turn the phone on soon but she didn't. As time passed, Arnav's anger turned into nervousness and it was raising. He didn't utter such words to hurt Khushi but only for fun. He didn't know his words would hurt her to this extend. Without any choice left, he called Shashi. Shashi attended it.

"Hello, Arnav, have you reached Delhi?" Shashi asked.

"Yes, uncle. Just now..."

"That's nice..."

"Could you please ask Khushi to switch her mobile on... her mobile is switched off, uncle"

"Oh... I will ask her to switch on the mobile. Do you want me to pass the phone?"

"Is she there?"

"No, she is not here... I will give her if you want"

"No, uncle. Just ask her to turn the phone on. It's enough"

"Ok..."

"Arnav wait... she is here"

'Yeah..." Arnav was curious.

"Khushiiii" Shashi called.

"Haan, Babuji..."

"Arnav is on the line... he needs to talk to you..."

"I will call him later, Babuji..." she left the place not waiting there.

"Arnav, she will call you..."

"Ok, uncle," Arnav said. Shashi sensed disappointment in his tone.

Disconnecting the call, Shashi headed to Khushi. Seeing Shashi, Khushi composed herself who's eyes were teary.

"Khushi, why did you switch your mobile off?"

"Oh... I didn't notice it Babuji. Let me check" she pretended like checking it.

"Arnav asked me to tell you to switch it on. Do it... and he reached Delhi safely. Don't worry"

Khushi nodded ok with a voluntary smile. Shashi left the place.

Arnav was waiting for Khushi's call. He was suffocating like hell. He sent a message to Khushi, asking for her apology even though her phone was off. He wanted her to know how sorry he was when she turns her phone on.

Night

Shashi was having dinner with Khushi and Garima. Shashi thought about Arnav's call.

"Khushi, did you call Arnav?"

Khushi nodded yes.

"I called him but his phone was not reachable" she lied.

"Oh..."

"You could have tried again," Garima said.

Khushi nodded ok.

"We no need to tell them about it, Garimaji... they knew it" Shashi smiled.

Khushi was silent.

Arnav was losing his patience. He didn't get sleep as he could not talk to Khushi. He was furious at the same time he was worried also. She was already inferior about their status difference. He knew about it. He should not have talked like that.

The next day

Shashi got a call from Arnav again.

"Hello, Arnav..."
