Khushi&NK&ASR:(Looks at him in confused expression as he din even get up frm his place)
Khushi:jijuuu....

Khushi:(she shakes her head smiling slightly)
NK &ASR does nt understand wat is gng on.....but suddenly they hear a shout from outside...
Kukuuuuuuuuuuu............diiiiiiii.........saveme......diiiiiii....kukuuuu...........save me.....n a guy comes in to the house hurriedly slamming the door....from stopping the dogs from entering....
Shyam was laughing as if there was no tmrw seeing him like that with the sweat n scared expression....even Khushi couldn’t help herself from laughing from seeing his condition...
(Arnav was concentrated more on khushi’s laugh....than that guys condition...she looked beautiful with those dimpled cheeks....)
(Anjali cms there hearing the shout)
Anjali:Oh my god!!!Shyam u did it deliberately din’t u??
Shyam:How can i leave a chance of irritating him!!!(smiles)
Sohan:Nt  fair bhaiyya...(sighs)
Shyam:Atleast tht made ur kuku laugh....!!!
Sohan:(smiles)thts true!!!(comes n gives her ahug)......
Arnav din like someone calling his wife kuku...ok nt wife..but to be....but still...who is he??he thought!!!
Anjali:Chote....this is Sohan....Khushi’s cousin....
Sohan(smiles):I was waiting to meet di’s chote...(shakes hands with him)
ASR:(glares at Anjali fr calling chote infrnt of all)I think ASR or Arnav would be better...(he smiles slightly)
Anjali:n this is NK...Arnav’s frn..
NK:Hy bro.....grand entry u gave!!!
Sohan: hy NK,Indeed it was!!!(smiling sheepishly)
(They have their chat....with random talk in btw abt business)
Anjali:chote n Khushi...y don’t u to go to garden backside n spk with each other....as we have time fr dinnr...
(Arnav looks at Khushi fr reaction)
Anjali:Khushi??
Khushi:Ok di...
(Arnav gets up...)
ASR:Shall we??
Khushi:Sure...
(both head towards the back side of the house,while walking)
ASR:Congragulations!!!
Khushi:y??
ASR:I din knw tht u have cleared UPSC mains...n u would be an IAS officer very soon...
Khushi:Oh!!Thank you....but i thought di had told u abt it...so i din mention Nani again!!
ASR:thts ok(smiles slightly)
Khushi:Do u mind if i work in a administrative service??or nani ??
ASR:NO....y would i mind....infact one should be proud tht his wife or DIL is an IAS officer
Khushi(shocked):OK
(Arnav felt the slip of tongue....seeing her shocked face....tht he has mentioned her as wife when they actually had nt agreed to anythn still....he felt like banging his head somewhr fr acting so desperate infront of her inorder to change the topic he asked
ASR:How did u manage to clear UPSC in first attempt...as i have heard its very tough!!!i mean time n all...
Khushi:i had a job from 9 to 5 so i would go fr coaching after work time....n revise at home...so i had enough time to prepare fr the exam!!!
Khushi:Wat made u bcm a designer....??I mean wat made u get in to the fashion field?
ASR:When i was in high school  I realised how an average looking grl or boy would look different if he or she is dressed according to their features....so frm thr i thought i would do designing....but i thought i would take that as a hobby as i had other business of my dad to handle but as I started studying more on that....I came to knw this is my field whr I wanted to work!!!(he smiles)
Khushi:R u being forced in to this??
ASR:(shocked)Wat made u think so??
Khushi:No its that u ll be meeting much more sophisticated grls n models...but i don understand...y did u want to get in to arrange marriage thing??
ASR: Every man his own drms n expectations when it comes to his better half..but I had none...and its not that I have been surrounded by beautiful...grls  I go on a date with someone...bcs ppl in the modelling fields jus think abt themselves except few!!N my wavelength does not match with the grls with whom I had my business with!!so I thought y not this way...n honestly it was my Nani’s wish....but I am willing to work on it..
ASR:Wat do u expect from ur life partner??
Khushi:Nthn much....honest behaviour towards me!!!
ASR:Sorry i din get u....
Khushi:only if a partner is honest towards each other....then everythn counts...but when u r nt honest itself to ur wife or husband feelings or anyothr thn bcms invalid!!
ASR:OK...How do u knw so much abt law n rules tht u mentioned to the police guy over there??
Khushi:As u knw my dad was an AC n i had gt idea abt little things from him...but i also observed cops would most of the time behave as they wish with ppl or poor bcs of the lack of knowledge of law among ppl n abt their rights...they make this a opportunity...to act as their wish....so i knew basic rules n regulations from bfre itself...even though if i couldn’t bcm IAS it could be used in such situations so...
ASR:But all these could be avoided if u had told tht u will be IAS officer soon right??
Khushi:I din want police to leave Lata jus bcs i will be an IAS officer that would be a insult of police officer...i wanted him to nt arrest Lata bcs i was right abt rules and regulations !!!
If i had told abt my service...it will be misuse of my post...n thr would be no diiference btw me n him...as both of us used their profession as their wish n also fr personal benifits!!!
(Arnav was shocked to listenin to her reply..he always used ASR name to deal with situations,even though he was right most of the times he din bother to look at this perspective....just getting work done is important he thought but now he gt to knw gettin work don in the right way of approach is also imp!!! he also felt proud of her by being so matured at this age n this corrupt society n mentally thanked his nani fr this alliance...as there is still lot more to learn frm her!!))
Khushi:U knw abt my past right??
ASR:Ya di told me....
Khushi:Do u have to knw anythn abt it??
ASR:I think whatever i wanted to knw i gt to knw(smiling inwardly)n i think we ll get to knw n understand each other with time....
Khushi:But......
(Before they could continue conversation...they hear a voice calling ASR...KHUSHI......N that was none other thn Khush’s frn and fan of ASR)
Before sometime inside mansion...after ASR n Khushi went....
Sohan:I just hope kuku...spks with Arnav n decide abt this!!
Anjali:ya sohan.....in the backyard there will be no one to disturb them n they can get to knw each other better...
Shyam:TRUE.....

Anjali:who came now?didn't chote cm too early???....(n goes to open the door)
(there stood Lavanya wearing her tops n jeans with a smile on her face)
Lavanya:Di,I am back....(hugs anjali)
Anjali gave alook to shyam saying see this is a wat i told!!!
Anjali:Weren’t u supposed to cm next month??
Lavanya:i was supposed to cm but when i gt to knw abt ASR-Khushi i couldn’t control....after all she is my frn(smiles)
But anjali knew better...bcs of whom she had cm n why!!
Entering mansion she greets all....as she knew NK n Sohan bfre....itself

Lavanya:OH...NO di....i have cm frm Australia...to meet her i can’t wait more....they can spk later...(saying this she rushes out of the house to find them)
