Arshi FF: Love always finds its way

Part 57 (Life and death)

Arnav was in shock after listening to the happenings that Khushi had to face. Although he was a positive person but whenever it came to Khushi he just cannot think straight about anything. In this one hour when she hadn't picked up her phone he had created n numbers of thoughts of what might have happened to her to not take his call. He was absolutely scared of letting her go off his life. For once he had lost her almost and so it had given him such a lesson that he just can't afford an inch of distance between them. He remembers how in college they used to have some small nok-jhoks(small fights) and he would irritate Khushi but after the sepration time when they had met again he is 100 times more careful of his words, his actions. He not even for a jokes wants to hurt Khushi. The slightest of thing which can even make her angry he never does them. So his restlessness was true, it wasn't nervousness for starting a new life but a fear that he might lose her. He was absolutely lost in his thoughts.

"Hello, Hello Arnav are you there are you listening to me?"

Her voice brought him back. And at the moment what he asked was.
"You are fine?"

He just needs a confirmation that she was alright.

"Yeah I am fine"

He then asked her about the hospital where Viraj was admitted and assured her that he would be there as soon as possible. He hangs up the call. Aman was looking at him he had a vague idea through Arnav's and Khushi's conversation that something was definitely wrong. But Arnav was lost in his own world not noticing that Aman was standing there giving him a questioning look as to know where was his little sister.

But after waiting for a few good minutes when Arnav never answered anything Aman finally thought to bring him back to present.

"Arnav it was Khushi would you tell me what happened or I need to call her back?"

Arnav looked at him. His face was all blank and white as if someone had sucked blood from his face. After listening to Khushi he was thinking what if that truck hadn't passed away from that road. His mind was not working. All he wanted was to see her now hug her and secure her in his arms and check if she was fine. Although she had confirmed she was alright but still he was not ready to believe anything untill he himself sees her. For now he just wanted to be beside her and confirm on his own.

Aman shooks him again and through his hand's gestures asks him about his conversation with her. At that moment if anyone would see him and Aman they will feel as if Arnav was deaf and could only understand actions.

" We need to go to the hospital right now. I am bringing up the car keys. I will clear your doubts in the car." And uttering so he ran upstairs to his room to grab his car keys.

Everyone was confused in the hall. Aman came near family members and told them what he knew. Everyone was tensed so, was he. He was unsure if Khushi was safe as Arnav hadn't revealed anything yet. Everyone was perplexed just then Arnav came downstairs. He knew everyone had questions so he answered them shortly.

"Khushi is fine and there is a long story behind how did she reach the hospital. I will tell you, people, once we return back so no one needs to worry. Lavanya you too come with us, please. Aman can we go now. You are ready?"

Aman and Lavanya nodded and they all started for the hospital. Meanwhile, in the car, Arnav called up police commissioner to the hospital. He told everything to both of them too. Lavanya had tears in her eyes she could not believe that Viraj could go this low. She thought he might have changed himself till now but he proved her wrong. She was hurt and disappointed with his actions. What had to lead him to turn into such a manic person.

"Lav stop hurting yourself for that person I brought you here not to hurt you but because I think maybe you can talk with him because I know I will not be able to control myself and..." his hold tightens on the car handle as he remembers what Viraj had told Khushi "A night with me". His heart was burning with rage he wanted to bury this man alive. Why even Khushi had to save him. "He should have died," Arnav spoke in a bit louder voice.
