Arnav woke up next morning and removed his eye mask. His eyes were swollen, and he didn't knew the reason exactly..... Is it because shampoo went into his eyes or is that because he cried after so many days ?

He saw that Kushi was getting ready infront of the mirror. He kept looking at her and this is the first time he observed her appearance..... She was dressed up in a neatly ironed green cotton salwar suit, long hair tied in a pony, and no make up at all, watch adorned in her one hands and gold bangle in other, Mangalsutra adorning her neck and vermillion in her partition..... She was looking so simple and pure fairy.....

As he was looking at her, she turned and glanced at him. He immediately averted his eyes. Kushi saw him and went near him.

Kushi - You woke up ?

He just nodded his head.

She looked at his eyes that still looked red.

Kushi - Your eyes are not ok till now.

Arnav didn't say anything and moved to the washroom to get ready. Kushi looked at his vanishing figure, shrugging her shoulder, she went downstairs.

Arnav on the other hand got ready and went downstairs to have breakfast and everyone dispersed to their work.

AR -

Arnav was sitting in his cabin leaning on his chair with his eyes closed. Before when he sits relaxed like this, it's always his mother's face that would pop up in his mind.... But for the past few days it's always been Kushi..... Why ? Why is she doing things for him like this ? And why is he letting her do all this ? Why is she texting him asking about his lunch everyday?

There is a saying ' Some people make mountains out of mole'. Arnav is of that category. He always makes mountain out of mole. For kushi it may be nothing more than a mole.... But for him, everything she does looks like a mountain. It created a big difference in his routine. He sighed ' don't bother so much Arnav..... She will stop doing such things in a few days. Like she said, she is doing all this only as a way of her Thankyou '

Aman came inside his cabin and looked at him relaxing. Moving near him he caressed his hairs....

Arnav opened his eyes - Amy....

Aman - What happened Arnie ?

Arnav - Nothing.....

Aman - Go home. It's already late.

Arnav looked at the time. It was showing as 8 PM.

Arnav sighed and collected his things.

Arnav - Bye.

Aman - Bye bye....

He started driving towards home and reached there in the next half an hour.

RM -

Arnav walked inside RM to see everyone was done with dinner.

Mama - Chote....

Arnav smiled at him - Good evening Mama.

Mama - Baito....

Arnav sat with him - Haan Mama....

Mama became hesitant - Chote.... You have to be at home tomorrow. You remember what day is tomorrow right ?

Arnav looked down gulping as he remembered what day was tomorrow. Nodding his head he went to his room.

Manohar looked at Kushi - Kushi bitiya...

Kushi - Haan Mama ji...

Manohar - Tomorrow is Rathna Didi's death anniversary. We are going to have Pooja in our home. Tum Chote ka khayal rakhna....
