Destroyed - Season 2

Mystery

Chapter 24: Mystery

Nisha is dragging Khushi towards Arnav's room so that she can witness their first holi after marriage.

"Please Nishu, I don't want to celebrate with-"

Nisha does not give any heed to Khushi and takes her toward the direction of his room

"Stop blushing. I know you are a newly wed bride, he won't eat you up. So just relax"

"But he is unwell. I don't think your brother is interested in such kinds of festivals."

"Aww, how sweet of you. My dearest Bhabhi knows him more than me"

"That's not like that"

Their argument continues until they reach outside his room, while in the room, Payal is present. Arnav is in a great mess. He doesn't know how to deal with this situation. No matter what he won't allow anyone to see Payal. There is only one way to exit. If Khushi sees Payal, everything will be finished. Somehow he managed to get up from bed and walked limping toward the door where Nisha and Khushi are standing and arguing about something..

"Please Arnav. Don't stress. Doctor had told you to do proper bed rest."

"Shut up Payal. You speak more than required. One Gupta is enough for me to handle at one time. Most importantly Arnav Singh Raizada is not that weak that these small injuries stop me from doing whatever I want." He raked his hand across his hair and began to think speedily.

"Please Nishu, Let's go back." Khushi grabs Nisha's both hands and tries to make her understand.

She needed to take Nisha to Nikhil in a coffee shop. Otherwise he will come back to Raizada mansion. She won't risk his life by bringing him in front of Asr. Oh god, how would I make her understand? By any chance if Arnav saw Nikhil close to Nisha, he wouldn't spare my dearest friend. I won't allow that monster to harm any of my loved ones. I failed to protect my love life from his evil's eye. But Nisha will not become another victim. She won't suffer heartbreak. She deserves to be loved by the one she loves"

"Hey" Nisha pinch her and bring her out from her chain of thoughts.

"Your prince charming might be waiting for you. Go and romance him. I promise I won't disturb the newly married couple" Nisha winked and gave a few tips. Khushi wanted to speak something but Nisha pushed her inside the room and then ran away laughing.

Due to sudden force, Khushi lost her balance and the next moment, she landed directly into Arnav's arms who was near the door.

Payal was just standing right in front of her. But Khushi's eyes were fixed on Arnav. His arms were protectively holding her in a way expressing he never let her fall. She looks into his chocolaty brown eyes and gets drowned. Khushi couldn't believe what was actually happening. She is too confused. That magical feeling is attracting her toward the man she hates the most. She tries to resist herself but something is stopping her..

Khushi immediately came back to her senses and upon realizing the position, she angrily pushed him. "Don't you dare touch me" Saying that, she was going to face Payal who was standing behind her, but Arnav pinned her against the wall and captured both of her hands behind her waist. Khushi struggles to get rid of him, but he makes all her attempts futile.

With his free hands, he took the gulal from the plate and brushed it across her slim waist in a seductive way. For a moment she forgot to breathe. Slowly his hand moved upward and he raked his hand starting from her wrist and rubbed it toward her arms.

On the other hand, Payal got the time to exit the room. She smiles and leaves the room hoping that their relationship grows deeper and deeper..

Closing the gap, Arnav leaned near her face and she closed her eyes, all lost. Bending forward, he whispered something to her ears.

"Let us make this holi memorable by splashing the color of love on each other" Khushi gets stunned and looks at him with surprise. This sentence vibrated within her ears and made her restless. Why is it happening to me?

His breath, his touch and the way he applied color made her feel strange at the same time familiar.. She is too confused and has no idea what is going on. She is blank. Everything is rotating before her eyes. Some strange voices and blur images moving before her eyes. She grabs her head trying to remember.

"Can't resist the charm of Arnav Singh Raizada" He said with a great attitude. But got no reply from her end. She grabs her head as it is paining like hell.

Seeing her sweating, Armav ran and immediately brought water for her" He commanded her to drink it. Instead she threw it away, leading it to fall on the ground with a sound.

"Don't you accuse me for touching you inappropriately without your permission?" Seeing her silently staring at him, he raised his eyebrow. "What?"

"Who are you?" There is an urgency in her voice.

"Excuse me? What kind of question is this? Don't you know who I am. I am your husband, a man whom you hate THE MOST."

"No, I don't know you. There is something you are hiding? I can feel it. Have you celebrated the Holi festival before with me?"

"Are you crazy? What are you talking about? I think you really need a physiatrist." He left the room leaving her with several doubts in her mind.

"What's wrong with me? Why did I ask that stupid question. I rarely celebrate Holi. In Fact I don't like colors and all. You really need a break, Khushi from all this mess" She brushed off that unwanted thought from her mind. Her focus should be only on destroying her biggest enemy.

Arnav punched a number and said, "Meet me tonight. No dammit. I can't wait. The way Khushi reacted today, the day is not far she might recall everything "

"That's a good sign. You should be happy that your-.."(Interrupted by him)

"NO!"

"Relax Arnav. I am always with you. Come to my home then we will talk" The person spoke.

Payal who overheard him talking with someone does not understand why he is so tensed. She couldn't hear properly what is he talking. But she is determined to make him confess that he loves only Khushi, not any other girl Mishti. To know the mystery, she silently followed him behind.

"Is he going to meet Mishti?" She jerk off her head. "I never allow any other woman to ruin my sister's married life." Covering her face with mask, she come outside and see Arnav's car going away. She took the taxi and told the driver to follow his car.
