Chapter 28: Disappointment

Flashback continued....

1 year 1 month ago....

(11 months later Khushi shifted to Mumbai)....

It was Arnav and Khushi's wedding night..

Yes, they got married but not at all the way, Khushi had ever dreamed off.. Even in her nightmare also, Khushi never thought she will be getting married with Arnav like this..

Khushi was sitting in front of her favorite deity while thinking about her life, specially remembering Arnav's words few nights before..." for now, we will do temple wedding simply and will be like just we are now.. I mean, unless I am achieving something, our marriage will be a secret ..."

Khushi looked at surrounding again, she is in Arnav's room,

Today was their wedding night, so many dreams Khushi had nurture for this day but, all her dream shattered when today, she got married with Arnav in the temple.. The way Arnav almost run out after the wedding, to his office, it seems like their marriage was another deal for him.. and its almost midnight, Arnav is still in the office..

Khushi looked at the mirror...

There is a just married woman was staring back at her... The magalsutra , sindur and marriage jora, indicating she is married yet, her pale face and teary eyes showed how her dream took a silent death today...

The big fat Indian wedding..

Khushi had always dreamed off about her wedding, but today in the temple with only the presence of priest, buaji, Arnav's colleague Bishal, Khushi's colleague Kaya and Khushi with her unmindful groom Arnav, the marriage ritual got over.. Khushi still fills Arnav's touch when he tie up the Mangansutra in her neck and filled up her partition...

She wanted to feel the warmth and happiness which her tired heart still hoping to have, but Arnav was thinking something else, probably about his business expansion, the entire time of the marriage ceremony..

And when the priest finally announce them as husband and wife, Khushi hoped that at least Arnav will spend the rest day with her, at least for today...

She was expecting the tender touch, light kisses and charming smile of Arnav, the whisper of nothing, the sense of comfort that his mere presence always had provided her...

But Arnav could not bother, he had kissed her forehead and hurriedly went out from the temple with his colleague Bishal as they have a meeting with a potential partner for their joint new venture...

Leaving a newly married woman alone in the alter for this new journey of her life...

Khushi felt her eyes pricked remembering her own marriage few moments ago..

Suddenly, Shyamal's words rings in her ear, "Khushi don't gamble your life.. Arnav is not in right frame of mind in this moment.. He is just trying to prove himself to Reshmi, forgetting everything around him.. don't accept all his demand breaking your own dream.. Tell him that, you can not be his secret wife..."

Khushi chuckle remembering Shyamal's warning and her stubbornness to ignore everything and comply with Arnav's wish...

To fulfill Arnav's wish, Khushi not only lost herself but lost few precious relationship of her...
