Chapter 14

Arnav groggily opened his eyes, slowly emerging, he reached out to his bedside table to grab his phone, intending to check the time. However, as his fingers brushed against the cool surface of the device, he noticed a new message notification.

Curiosity piqued, Arnav swiped his finger across the screen, unlocking his phone. His eyes widened as he saw the message was an MMS, and the preview image displayed a compromising position involving him and Khushi. A mix of shock, confusion, and anger flooded his senses as he hesitated for a moment. Should he open it? Was this some kind of sick prank?

Taking a deep breath, Arnav tapped on the message, bracing himself for what he was about to see. The video began to play, and his heart sank when he realized it was indeed him and Khushi in the video. The footage had been taken secretly, capturing a private moment that was never meant to be seen by anyone else.
As the scenes unfolded before his eyes, Arnav's mind raced, desperately trying to comprehend how such a personal moment had been captured and sent to him. Doubt and suspicion crept in, clouding his thoughts. Who could have done this? Was it someone they knew? Or was it just a random act of malice?

With shaking hands, Arnav paused the video, unable to bear witnessing any more of the intimate footage.  The background it's seen like Goa the last night were they spend their time together.
As he stared at the frozen frame on his phone, Arnav's mind went back to the moments shared with Khushi.

Arnav's heart raced as he dialed Khushi's number, his mind filled with worry. It rang and rang, but there was no answer. He tried again, hoping she would pick up this time,  Panic began to set in. Why wasn't she answering? Was she already aware of the video? Or was she simply occupied with something else?

Khushi sat at her desk in her office, a soft smile playing on her lips as she reminisced about the events of the previous night. Arnav's confession of love had taken her by surprise, as their relationship had initially started as a no-strings-attached fling. But with each passing day, their connection had deepened, and they had both realized that they wanted something more. The realization had brought immense joy to Khushi's heart, and she couldn't help but wear that happiness on her face.
Lost in her thoughts, Khushi suddenly heard a knock on her office door. Startled, she turned her attention towards the entrance and was pleasantly surprised to see Shyam, standing there. She quickly composed herself and rushed to open the door.

"Shyam! What a pleasant surprise!" Khushi exclaimed, a genuine smile spreading across her face. "Please come in."
Shyam entered the room, a warm smile adorning his face as well. "Khushi, I hope I'm not interrupting anything important. I just wanted to talk to you about the interior design for my new office.".
Khushi chuckled lightly, shaking her head. "No, not at all. I was just lost in my thoughts. Come, have a seat. I'd be happy to help you with the design."
They both settled down in chairs opposite each other, ready to discuss the upcoming project. But before they delved into the details, Shyam couldn't help but notice Khushi's radiant smile.
"You seem really happy today, Khushi. Anything special?" he asked, curiosity evident in his voice.

Khushi blushed, her smile growing wider. "Well,  it's nothing just feeling good today"

Khushi sat in her office, engrossed in a conversation with Shyam about the interior designs for his new office. They discussed color schemes, furniture options, and the overall ambiance Shyam wanted to create. Khushi was passionate about her work as an interior designer and always gave her best to her clients.
