The guard stiffened seeing Chotte Saab on the driveway.He opened the gate and gave him a salute for which Arnav responded by a nod.Payal was threatened by the ambiance of the house.The house screamed money.It was not royal but classy and modern too.And her throat got dried.She has been with Arnav on his Villas and cottages and apartment but that didn't frighten her as much this did.When they will come to know the truth,what will they do?The mere thought shook her.She held his hands tightly for reassurance.Asr saw her and could understand her dilemma.He held her tightly and placed his lips on the back of her hand.She shivered again.Only he thought it to be her nervousness.Well,He remains clueless about her emotions again.She felt different when he touches her. His lips on her back of her hands just did unjustifiable things to her. She is not his. She knew. But what will happen when all will come to know about Akash?
Nani has been pacing the hallway for hours,she has come to know from the media again that her Chotte had landed in Delhi.His audacity.'Let he come,I'll teach him 'When the news telecasted on Tv, all her relatives bursted her ears by calling her continuously.They didn't show their care towards them on the good apple days,now they have seen one rotten apple ,all they do is act as they care.What do they think?That she doesn't know anything.She knows everything except her chotte's marriage.Her heart slumped.Didn't he consider them as their own?Maybe Her relatives were right when..Her thoughts were disrupted by the opening of the door.She stiffened her stance and adjusted her pallu and saw her dearest chotte and A girl aged Twenty or so with a bump holding HER chotte's hand.
Bump.Baby.Pregnant.
ASR you are so screwed.
"Chotte'?" Her eyes accused.

Nani's word hurt him.He knew any human being would feel the same in this situation,yet he had high hopes on Nani.Isn't it strange? Human mind.Every time it says one thing, but expects some other thing.Here he expected Nani to be angry yet he wants her to be considerate.Is he kidding?His own mind asked questions.On sensing a sweaty touch on his hands,he looked down to see his hands clasped with Payal.Oh man,Did Nani making Payal nervous? Not that she was not nervous in the first place. He controlled his emotions and told in his choco voice " Nani,Meet Mrs.Raizada and she is pregnant" .Wah Wah ASR, as if Nani has noticed it earlier. Why do you think she is throwing daggers at you?
"I don't believe this" Nani shook her head in denial and her eyes turned exact replica of what her mouth said.
"This is the truth, Nani.The sooner you accept it,it is better for everyone." ASR told in his no-nonsense tone which made sure there is more to their relationship than what meet the eyes.
"Take her to Guestroom."
"She has a name ,Nani."
"About which Am not aware of "
'Your Kabri didn't tell you ?" He mocked.
"Do not twist my words Chote."She said sternly.
"Namaste, Am Payal." She introduced herself to ease out the mounting tension between two.Not that it got any lesser than earlier.In fact, Nani got furious.
"You have found your voice? " Nani asked mockingly.
"Nani , Is this how you behave with Bahu of this house ? What is the different between you and Mami? You both are same in this matter .Where have your morals gone now? " he snapped.
"Vah chotte.Ek shabdh ke liye aap hume itna suna rahe ho.Think of your actions and tell me how and What should I do with you? "
Her reality check got him paralyzed.He knew Nani is too smart for her age.
"Aah" "Arnavji" Payal 's shriek shook him and he turned his attention towards her. "What happened?" he asked concerned.
"My legs.I can't feel them." Payal's painful voice arose the mother in Nani and she called arnav, " Chotte,Bring the hot pack from the kitchen.Go fast. " She made Payal rest on the sofa and looked over the kitchen to see what her idiot grandson is doing.
