Khushi looked at closed room of washroom before slowly wiping the tears she was trying to control in front of him.
I am sorry, Devi Maiyya. I never intended to do this but he himself pushed me to do this. First his stupid thinking that he can do whatever he wants with me just because of that stupid contract and then how can he tell me to sleep outside?
I know he is my husband and I promise, I wouldn't do anything to hurt him but at the same time I wouldn't rest till I show him the reality and what damage he have done in his ego.
She looked at herself and sighed, she have nothing to change into. She'll have to sleep in this heavy lehanga only, for the night. Walking to the mirror she removes the heavy veil from her head and then removed her jewellery. Looking at the closed door of washroom she wanted to shout at him to come out but instead she controlled herself and waited for him.
Arnav came out changed into his trousers and t-shirt for the night. He really needed that cold shower to cool down his desires on which Khushi have already spread water. He looked at her who was now standing with no jewellery and dupatta which was earlier made her veil is now resting on her shoulders covering her bosoms. He suddenly felt bad to see her struggling with that heavy lehanga, he was going to help her when he stopped remembering their earlier flight and her words. He moves straight to the recliner taking pillow from bed and Khushi went inside the washroom.
When Khushi came out after getting fresh, he was lying on recliner with his one hand resting on his forehead covering his eyes. She slowly walks to bed, and hesitantly lies down after keeping her dupatta on headboard. Everything feels new and weird to her suddenly and from whom a wife can expect to make her comfortable after marriage that husband of hers is too thick-headed to even expect few words of care from him.
"Sleep, Khushi. Sleep. This is going to be your life for next six months and you're going to sleep on this same bed for coming months." Khushi tried to make herself understand.
She was closing her eyes when she noticed something. Standing up she held the comforter and walked towards recliner and after looking at his posture when she thought he have slept she covered him with comforter.
Coming back she again lied down on bed covering herself with another comforter "I won't back off from my wifely duties." and she closed her eyes, finally giving in to the much needed sleep after the tiring day.
At the same time Arnav opened his eyes and craned his neck to her direction to see her sleeping with a frown showing her discomfort. He looks at the comforter with which she have covered him and a smile tugged on the corner of his lips. He turns in her direction and keeping his one palm under his cheek, he keeps gazing at her.
He never intended to go forward the moment he saw her discomfort and was going to back off but he wanted to rile her up, to see her helpless, to beg from him to not do anything. But like is doing from the whole evening, she again surprised him with her confidence and the way she retorted back.
In some corner of his heart, he felt proud to see her fighting back with such confidence but at the same time he felt irritated with the way things are not going the way as he wants completely. Seems like it's not him who is deciding conditions but her.
I wish things were different. He confessed before closing his eyes.

Next Day
When Khushi opened her eyes, first she was surprised to find herself in different place. She looked around startled sitting on bed when slowly reality sinks in her.
She is Married now.
Married to Arnav Singh Raizada.
Married in a most unexpected way, a girl would never want.
Married only for six months.
Married because of Arnav Singh Raizada's ego and wrong judgement.
And with all these came the another thought for which she is Married.
"Married for Destruction."
And she'll start from today only.
She wiped the tears which was streaming down remembering the yesterday events and standing in front of mirror she said speaks "I am coming, Shyam Manohar Jha, it's your turn for some reality check. Your Destruction is on its way. "
