 Part 55 Truth and Promise

"I expect you to tell me the truth, Khushi" Arnav asked.

"What Truth?"

"The truth about my father's promise," Arnav asked making Khushi shocked.

She didn't know how Arnav got to know about it.

"Promise...? What promise?" She stammered.

Arnav looked at her sharply for a few seconds and said,

"Don't try to give your BEST not tell me about it, as you told my father" he added.

Khushi's stomach mixed up. Damn, did he hear their talks?

"Yes, I heard your talks. I got to know that he was trying to talk to you alone. So, I guessed he would talk to you if no one was there in our room. That's why I left our room intentionally" he said as if he heard her mind's voice.

Khushi looked at him shockingly.

"Intentionally?"

"Yes, do you think discussing our business is more important than you for me? How would I think of discussing it when you are in this condition? The main point is, that you are my PA, there is nothing that I could discuss with Aman avoiding you. We could have done that here itself if we wanted to..."

Yes, he was right. Why would he leave the room if he wanted to talk about business? Khushi supposed.

"You are a brilliant girl, Khushi...! You cleverly told my father that you could not lie to me if I asked you directly. I'm asking you directly now. What's the promise about? Why did he get your promise?"

"Arnavji... I managed to answer him...! It's over...!"

Cutting her,

"So, do you think I don't have to know about it?"

"I didn't mean it..."

"Then what you meant?"

"Arnavji, as you heard our talks, you should have understood what the promise was about..."

"Whatever, Khushi... I want my wife to be open book to me... just like how I'm with her" he said contently.

Khushi gulped down. Yes, he was an open book to her. Of course, she too wanted the same. She would have told him everything if Arvind had not taken her promise. But, after Arnav heard everything, there was nothing to hide from Arnav after him.

"Won't you tell me? do you think I can't get to know that?"

She nodded no hurriedly.

"ok... I have no choice... I will directly ask Mrs. Arvind Singh Raizada" he stood up from the bed.

Khushi clutched his wrist and nodded no. Arnav again sat on the bed.

"Tell me, what happened" he smiled.

"I found out Hilma was not Khushali when she came to RM for the first time," She said in a gauzy tone.

"How did you find it out?"

"I already met her in the inter-school competition. Our schools were the finalists. Their school lost in the final. She hit the girl who was the reason for their defeat. She shouted in anger while hitting the girl, that, 'that would have been her twelfth cup if she had won' If she was Khushali, she could not have studied in the same school for twelve years. I thought it was Hilma's family's ploy... but..." she hesitated.

"Continue..."

"Arvind uncle was the one who trained them and brought them to RM. He asked me not to tell the truth to anyone" she said in a slow tone.
