Why FEAR when Khushi is HERE(Charm AWARDEE)

A Strong Connection

Khushi POV
"So all these reports need to be studied and combined together to create the Annual Report by the end of this year." I comfirmed once again.

"Yes. For the time being this is your main task. Focus on it for the next few weeks. And the rest of your regular tasks will include following up with ASRs clients, handling his dates and appointments, flight bookings as and when required and even his meals. I hope you are clear with everything. If not check again the mail that I sent you. Slowly you will get habitual to everything going on in AR Designs. So you get comfortable in your cabin then. And if ASR calls attend to him ok?" Amanji explained every minute detail to me.

"Ofcourse Amanji. I will focus only on my job from now on. I will make AR proud of me." I said with full determination.
In return he smiled and left my cabin.

Wow Khushi this is great. Thanks Devi Maiyya. I hope my dreams and ambitions will touch the skies. From now onwards I will be fully devoted to my work. And towards Aranvji too...
Why is it that I am unable to let him go from my thoughts? In one day we have developed such a strong connection? And Arnavji he too is feeling this bond. I saw it in those eyes. A madness and craziness for me reflects in those chocolate orbs..
Tring...tring...tring....

Oh my first work call. Waah Devi Maiyya. You are on my side it seems huh.
"Hello AR Designs.." I said in a professional voice.
"Hi Ms. Gupta.." a husky voice of Arnavji greeted me.
"Oh Sir...its you. Yes tell me. How can I help you? After all I am your PA." I said ina teasing tone.
"Alright then. There is something that I need your help in...come to my cabin Khushi." He stated.
"As you say ASRji." I said and cut the call.

Arnav POV
Hmmm. Khushi has been on my mind since morning. One look and I am done? Really? Is there such a thing called 'the one'? Yes. It has to to be. Because we share a strong bond of sorts thats for sure. I can sense it.
Feeling all agitated...I called her to my cabin. A few moments later...I heard a knock on my cabin.
"Come in Khushi." I called out.

She came inside quickly with a notepad and pen in hand.
"Wow you are already prepared to work hard huh...Ms. Gupta?" I asked with a smirk.

She glanced at me for a second but then a look of determination came on her face.
"Ofcourse Sir. Jokes aside...I will put all my hard work and efforts required for this job. I want to show you that I can turn into a valuable asset for AR Designs."

"That is really good Khushi Kumari Gupta. I appreciate your motivated thoughts. Thats what we need in AR." Her smile was infectious.

"Thank you Sir. So how can I help you?" She asked.
"Well first let me explain your day to day tasks..."

It took nearly an hour to make Khushi understand the basic and complicated details of things that she will be going to do from now on.
I liked how she noted each and everyword of mine. 

"Alright Khushi you may go now."
"Ok Sir." And she left saying so.

Khushi POV
Huhhhh. Its 6pm. Time passed away pretty quickly. Oh Devi Maiyya its good that you gave me a chance to learn so much on my first day.
Now I should wrap up all the work for the day. Buaji and Jeeji will be waiting for my return. They will be very happy to know how smoothly my first day went.

I got up from my seat and left my cabin with a smile. But in my quickness to leave I banged into a wall. Ouchhhhh. My forehead.
I hissed in pain. However it was not the wall but my bossji. Yup. His manly arms held mine in a soft but firm grip. You might be thinking how I knew who it is...But my dhak dhak is a clear sign of his proximity dont you think. 

Devi Maiyya bs bhi kijiye...heart attack dekar hi dum legein aap.(DM just stop it now...I dont need a heart attack on top of everything)

"Khushi are you alright? Zor se lagi kya?" Arnavji asked me.
"I am fine Arnavji. I was walking in a rush so missed you. Actually Buaji and Jeeji must be waiting for me. I gotto go now. Its 6pm." I said quickly.

"I know Khushi thats why I was coming to your cabin. I was thinking if its not a problem...shall I drop you home?" He asked a bit hesitantly.
Kya ek hi car mein Arnavji ke saath? Devi Maiyya humare rajkumar ke sath rehne ka chance miss nai krenge hum. Shukria aapka.
"Ofcourse Sir. If you have no problems then why not."

Arnav POV
Oh My God....she said yes. This is great. Finally I got the opportunity to ask Khushi for her number.
"Come along then." I said casually. But my mind was dancing with joy.

During the car ride I asked Khushi about her  as much as possible. And she was all the more enthusiastic to answer.

"But why green color?" I asked curiously.
"Because it reminds me of the spring season. A color close to nature. Like the greenery around us." She replied looking around the trees on the side of the road.

She likes green color because its close to nature. Just like my fondness for my plants. She too feels a connection with them. Unknowingly you got my Ma's blessing today Khushi Kumari Gupta....near future Singh Raizada. I thought with a silly smile on my face.

"And I am a big foodie. I dont get how modern girls like your models eat so less. I cannot even imagine myself like that. Thats the most horrifying thought for me. Not eating properly...ghaans phoos khake kaun jeeta hai bhala." She muttered with a terrified look on her face.

I laughed out loud hearing her words. I never thought a day would come when I would laugh like this...so open heartedly.
Only Khushi can give someone such a gift.
"Hawww. You are laughing at my words. Its easy to laugh Mr. Raizada. Try to go on such a diet then you will realize the importance of food." She retorted.

"I am not laughing at you dear. You are just too cute."
I said with a smile.

She put her hand behind her neck and replied coolly
"Thats true."

Hahahaha I laughed again and she joined me too this time.

Pretty soon as per Khushi's directions we reached Laxmi Nagar. And a small but simple house stood on my right.
"Thats my house. Would you like to meet my family?" Khushi asked in excitement.

Uh oh. NO no ways. I cannot meet her family right now. I need to be well prepared. To create a good impression. ASR never does anything unplanned. I thought.
"Not today Khushi. Maybe some other time. Your family will be worried for you. You go inside."
"Okay." She replied.

And dashed out of the car to leave. It was then that I realized my real motive to drop her home. Ughhhh. I forgot to ask for her number. Oh NO. I LOST MY CHANCE.

In ANGER I KICKED MY TYRE.

I was about to sit in the car feeling all deflated when I heard Khushi call me from behind.

"ARNAVJI...ONE MINUTE." She came back with a naughty look on her face.

"Yeah Khushi..." I responded with a smile.

She walked towards me and came very close to my left ear. Her breath caresses the crook of my neck. Oh My...

"I asked Amanji for your number this morning. Wait for my call tonight. Aur ek aur baat...clean shave mein aap bahut chikne lgte hain." She said while softly tracing my cheek with her cheek.

She backed out of my personal space slowly.
And I breathlessly asked her.
"Khushi what does..." But she stopped me knowing my question.
"It means you look like a chocolate boy ASRji."

And yet again I stood speechless with a blushful face on the busy streets of Laxmi Nagar...
