मेरी दिल की धड़कन और सदा तुहीं है,
मेरी पहली और आखिरी वफ़ा तुहीं है,
चाहा है तुझे चाहत से भी बढ़ कर मैंने,
मेरी चाहत और चाहत की इंतिहा है तुहीं है।

AVIRAJ SINGH RATHOR'S POV

Dad called me and said he needed to meet me immediately, and I knew there was some problem. When I reached home Sanyukta, Ayaan and Khushi were sitting together, they tried to tease me but I was quick to find out what dad knew as he seemed angry. I went straight to study, when I went inside dad asked me to sit. I sat in the chair in front of him and dad asked

"How is your marriage going, any problems?"

"No dad, no one is worried. Did Khushi say anything to you?" I asked

"So Mr. Aviraj Singh Rathor, will you tell me yourself how your marriage happened or will I tell you?" dad asked sternly

"You know?" I asked, lowering my eyes and  threaded a hand through my hair.

"To yeh sab tumhara plan tha starting se jo kuch bhe uss din hua Ayesha ka bhag jana, dulhan badalna, khushi se shadi karna aur fir ese dikhana kee yeh sab tumhare marje ke khilaf hua hai." Dad asked raising his eyebrows (So this was all your plan from the beginning, whatever happened that day, Ayesha ran away, changed the bride, got married happily and then made it look like it all happened against your wishes.)

"Yes dad but..." I replied but before I could say anything he cut me off and said

"And you didn't even think it necessary to tell me that..." There was a knock at the door, we both looked at each other and then dad asked the person to come inside. Khushi came with the coffee, she looked at dad and gave him a smile, and after placing it in front of me, she murmured the coffee and went away.

"I don't think she heard anything." After Khushi left dad said

"She knows." I closed my eyes and sighed

"How do you know this?" Papa asked confused

"Didn't you see how she looked at me?" I asked in disbelief

"Oh, the same boy who used to ask me, Dad, how do you know when mom is angry with you. Today he know through his wife's eyes that she knows everything." dad said smiling

"Dad, I have to go. Please, I will tell you everything later." I said while standing up from the chair

"Just tell her your intentions were not bad. She will understand. And this time don't hide anything, tell her everything. Everything" Dad said patting my back and I nodded and left from there.

Crap, this isn't the way I want her to know everything. I want to tell her myself but...

"Khushi" I said while going into our room, she turned towards me and asked me giving a forced smile.

"What happened?"

"Tum naraj ho mujhse?" (Are you angry with me?) I asked, stepping towards her and holding her by the waist and pulling her close to me.

"aapne esa kuch kiya jisse mujhe naraj hona chahaeye aapse." (Did you do something that I should be angry with you for?) Looking into my eyes she asked,

"Jaan,mujhe kuch..." (Darling,  I need something...) Before I could say anything, Khushi's phone started ringing; she picked up the phone and said
