Part 46 Marriage

"MARRY HER," Said Nani.

Arnav and Khushi were shocked to the core as they didn't expect Nani would come up with such a solution. They looked at each other and gulped down hard. Arnav was about to say something but he stopped hearing Khushi.

"No, Naniji, it won't work," she said.

Arnav stared at her blankly as he understood which mean she said that.

"What do you mean 'it won't work?" Nani asked.

"I don't want to put him on the fire just because of the critical situation, Naniji"

"But, you are already standing on the fire, Khushi"

"I will handle it, Naniji..."

"Answer my question and then go"

Khushi looked at her to know the question.

"Do you like Chotte or not?"

Khushi was stuck. Though Arnav knew the answer he wanted to know what answer she gave to Nani.

"I...I like him very much Naniji"

"Then why are you hesitating?"

"It's not about my wish Naniji. We know his idea about marriage and his hatred towards intuition."

"This is not a time to think about it, Khushi bitiya. The whole world is watching you. How we are going to answer the reporters is what matters now"

"Please, try to understand, Naniji..."

"I have no problem in announcing that she is my fiancé," Arnav said, which was unexpected.

Khushi looked at him surprisingly. was he really ready to announce her as his fiance?

"Announce? What does that mean, Chotte?"

"I will meet the press reporters and will say we are getting married in a few days"

"So, you are going to prove them right..."

"I'm trying to kill the issue, Nani"

"The way you want to kill it will regenerate it again in a few days."

"Then what else do you want me to do?"

"Come with me"

Clutching their hands, Nani walked, taking them with her. Arnav and Khushi walked, looking at each other. Restlessness overflew on their faces as they didn't know what Nani wanted them to do. Nani brought them to the Pooja room and made them stand in front of the Devi Maiya Idol. She removed the mangal sutra from Devi Maiya's Idol and kept it in the pooja plate where there was a vermillion box. She extended it to Arnav who looked at her widening his eyes.

"Tie this mangal sutra in her neck and accept her as your wife. it will solve all the problems" Nani said.

Arnav looked at Khushi.

"Naniji... in order to solve my problem, you are creating a problem for Arnavji"

Nani looked at Arnav.

"I told you the solution, Chotte. Now, the ball is in your court. Decide what should be done. But, before making a decision, keep Khushi's future in your mind" Nani said.

Arnav thought for a while. Don't know what was running through his mind. Khushi closed her eyes and made up herself accept the denial. She opened her eyes to say something, but she got stuck, seeing Arnav taking the mangal sutra in his hands. She looked at him surprisingly. Arnav came close to her with the mangal sutra and stood in front of her.
