Khushi starts sobbing, curled up like a baby.
Arnav, who is sleeping beside her, gets up panicked hearing Khushi. He hugs Khushi immediately. Khushi keeps breathing heavily and hiccupping while crying.
Arnav - Khushi.. Khushi... what happened?
Khushi opens her eyes and looks at him with tears, and throws her arms around his neck. She hugs him so tight, as if he is going to disappear, if she leaves him.
Arnav carressing her back - What happened, Khushi? Did you have any night mare?
Khushi is holding him even more tight - Arnav, please don't leave me. If I make any mistake please tell me, but don't leave me.
Arnav frowns listening to her - What are you talking about? Why would I leave you?
Khushi crying - Please don't tell me to leave you.
Arnav breaks the hug, makes her lay on the bed, and looks into her eyes. He wipes her tears with his thumb and then cups her cheeks.
Arnav - Why would I tell you to leave me? Do you think I can live without breath? You are my breath, Khushi? And I can't even live for a second without you.
Khushi just keeps staring at him. Tears keep flowing more from her eyes.
He presses his lips together and wipes her tears, raising his eyebrows - Now, no more tears. Okay? I'm here itself beside you. Now go freshen up.
Saying he gets up and sits on the bed, but, Khushi holds his wrist. He looks at her.
Khushi circles her hands around his torso and keeps her head on his chest - Let me please stay like this for some time. Please..
Arnav smiles and takes her into his embrace. She closes her eyes and relaxes in his arms. He keeps carressing her back, kissing her hairs and then leans his cheek on her head. After a while, when Khushi calms down, she realizes that she is hugging Arnav, so she moves back, breaking the hug. She looks down at her lap, Arnav looks at her with a calm face, and his eyes are filled with adoration for his beautiful wife.
He cups her right cheek and traces it with his finger.
Arnav - Don't think so much, didn't I tell you that life isn't so hard, like how you make in your mind. And I would do anything in my power to make you smile and happy. Got it? Now stop crying and go freshen up.
Khushi gets up from the bed and stands, even Arnav stands along with her. He tells her to freshen up and is about to turn back and go when she holds the collar of his t-shirt. Arnav looks at her and understands that she is still not sure to let him go away from her.
Arnav gives a small smile, looking at her. He goes near her and tucks the hair strand behind her ear. She looks into his eyes. He traces his fingers from her cheek to her neck and moves his lips closer to her ear. She just keeps noticing his moves. He circles her waist with both of his arms and pulls her closer to him. She startles by his move, and he moves closer to her lips.
Arnav in a husky voice - I know I'm handsome, so why don't both of us take a shower together?
Khushi widens her eyes, listening to him.
Arnav brings her one arm and puts it on his shoulder, and the other he places near his heart.
Khushi - I... I...
Arnav looking into her eyes - I.. I.. kya?
Khushi - Woh...
Arnav - Woh kya.... sweet heart?
Khushi looks astonished. Did he again call her 'sweetheart'?
Khushi - Why did you call me 'sweetheart'?
