Aapke Pyaar Mein [IPKKND AU] - to be continued

Chapter 2

She couldn't help but blush all time thinking about Arnav, how he tried saying I love you to her. She couldn't almost believe it. Laad Governor, the great ASR loves her! She chuckled at the thought and smacked herself on the head.

Payal - Khushiiiii, where are you lost?

She jerked and looked at Payal watching her bewildered. She didn't notice Payal calling her as she was so lost.

Payal - I'm going to get married today and here you are, all being the Sanka Devi you are. Didn't even tell me how I'm looking.

Payal pouted emotionally blackmailing and scolding her sister at the same time. Khushi grinned at her Jiji.

Khushi - Jiji, you're the most beautiful bride I've ever seen. You're looking so pretty. You see, Jijaji won't be able to keep his eyes and hands off you tonight.

Payal gasped and looked around to see if somebody heard her. But thankfully they both were alone in the room. Khushi giggled as Payal hit her lightly and then blushed lowering her eyes.

Khushi - Jiji, keep some blush for tonight also.

Payal - Dhat! Pagal.

Khushi was busy laughing when Payal suddenly pulled her into a hug. Realization hit her that she won't be having her sister around all the time and neither will they be sharing a bed anymore.

Payal - I'm going to leave you and you aren't even feeling a bit sad.

Khushi's smile disappeared as she heard the tearful voice of her elder sister. She's fully aware of her leaving them and becoming a member of the Raizada family. But how can Khushi let her Jiji cry on this joyful day? So she pulled apart and held her hands.

Khushi - Jiji, I'm not feeling sad. Because you may leave me, our family and home but I won't leave you.

Payal blinked her tears away as lines of confusion appeared on her face.

Payal - What do you mean?"

Khushi - I mean, that the Raizadas are getting me as dowry. Because wherever my Jiji goes, I won't be far behind. We're a special offer you see. Ek se saath ek free. (Buy 1 get one free)

Payal laughed at her jolly sister's offer and cupped her cheek with her hand.

Payal - You are completely a Sanka Devi. Buaji's!

"Haye re Nand Kishore."

Khushi - When you speak of the devil.

Payal suppressed her smile at Khushi's statement. Buaji just came in opening the door and her mouth dropped as she saw her younger niece not at all ready.

Buaji - What do I do with this girl? Ey Sanka Devi, why aren't you ready yet? Will the mauhurat wait for you?

Khushi - I was just to get ready Buaji!

Buaji - Then hurry up! Guests have all arrived. Even panditji is here. Take these and get changed.

Khushi nodded just silently as Buaji put her lehenga choli into her hands and made her way to the washroom.

Arnav headed straight to his Di's room and knocked at the door. Unpleasant thoughts running into his mind as he thought about his sister being in pain. The door was opened by Anjali who looked at him with a frown.

Arnav - Di, are you ok?

He kept his hand on her arm to support her. She smiled a bit and nodded as she sensed his concern.

Arnav - I'm fine Chote. Don't be so worried.

He relaxed a little and nodded at her. Anjali caressed his cheek lovingly like a mother.
