MID NIGHT 2A.M....
Khushi and Arnav had dozed off there itself...with Khushi sleeping her head on armrest and Arnav placing his head on headrest of the two seater.. ....suddenly they both heard some sound and both were awake to see Nani regaining her consciousness...soon both were by her side....Nani was slowly trying to open her eyes....making Arnav happy seeing her all fine....
ASR:Nani...can u hear me??
Nani just looked at him smiled slightly....
Khushi went and called the doctor who was in charge that time.....soon Doctor came n checked her and told that she is perfectly fine now and they can take her tomorrow back home....making Arnav and Khushi happy...
Khushi:Nani...You just take rest we are here only...
Nani looks at her and nods her head ...and sleeps soon because of the tired ness....
Soon Arnav and Khushi came and sat in the two seater feeling finally relaxed...seeing Nani resting peacefully....Khushi immediately texted Anjali,NK and Sohan about Nani being fine so that they need not worry the entire night...
Khushi was nt able to sleep properly as she had slept in the awkward position sleeping by placing her head on the two seater...she started massaging her neck ....seeing this Arnav  asked...
ASR:Wat happened??
Khushi:I think I slept in some weird position straining my neck...I cant find a proper position to keep my head....
ASR:Me too....But I think I have an idea...which will help both of us sleep well
Khushi:What is it??
ASR:This.....(With that he encircled her by her shoulders by his right hand and made her sleep on his chest ...n he kept his head on her head...shocking Khushi to the core)
Khushi:Arnav??(As she could hear his hearbeat though she had kept her head on right side of his chest...n their upper body plastered to each other in that small two seater ....making her feel butterflies in her stomach)
ASR:Khushi....U know both of us are tired so just sleep don’t think anything else..for now...(still keeping his head on her head)
Khushi:OK....
Arnav sighed after she agreed...and was happy to finally sleep with her in his arms his wife who had hugged him few hours before to comfort him and assure him...about Nani... He was not the person who would share his thoughts with anyone but Khushi somehow understood that he needed her support and she willingly had hugged him in order to console him and he needed her that time..he had felt little bit relieved after listening to her words ...he thought how his life would be to have her in his arms every night to keep looking at her glowing face while she slept...thinking that he saw her face who was sleeping soundly by this time with her mouth partially open..he smiled seeing her and placed a tender kiss on her forehead making her move a little in sleep...and soon he too rested his head on hers and wishing his future life to be beautiful as he thinks...just like now....
MORNING 6 A.M
Nani opened her eyes to see  the most beautiful sight greeting her....
Arnav had his right hand around Khushi’s shoulders holding her and she was sleeping peacefully on his chest and she had encircled her hand holding his waist as if she was hugging some teddy and Arnav’s head was on Khushi’s head....both were in deep sleep...Nani smiled seeing both...as she knew that both were trying to understand each other and comfortable with each other for now...
She kept looking at them smiling slightly...soon Khushi got up freeing herself from Arnav’s hold...and was happy to see Nani awake...
Khushi:How are u feeling Nani??
Nani:I am fine beta....Why did you and chote stay back here ..you could have stayed at home na??
Khushi:Nani how can you expect us to stay at home...when your so ill??
Nani just sighs seeing her reply...
Khushi:I ll just go to washroom and freshen up and come...
Soon Arnav had gt up and spoke to Nani and later went to freshen up....
7.00A.M
Anjali  came to hospital to meet Nani....and was relieved to see her fit and fine...
ASR:Nani I spoke to Bhatia uncle...he told we can leave by 11...
Nani:Ok chote.....
Anjali:Chote...you and Khushi go home and take bath and have breakfast and come...as I have already called HP nad told him to prepare breakfast for you both and also for Nani...get her food also while coming...I ‘ll be there with Nani...
ASR:OK di..
With that Khushi and Arnav left in their car...to RM
IN CAR
ASR:Thank you Khushi...
Khushi:why??
ASR:For being there when I needed someone to share my pain...
Khushi:Thts ok...it was my duty....
ASR:Hmmm....your dance event is tomorrow right??
Khushi:Arnav I was thinking to not attend after Nani’s attack...you know...
ASR:Dont be silly Khushi.....its important for you na??
Khushi:But...somebody has to bethere with Nani na??I don’t want to take any risk Arnav....
ASR:I know Khushi....Nani will be home by 11 and we will be there with her at home only practising...and I have already asked Di to stay with Nani today and tomorrow..and even she has agreed...so you don’t worry abt her....
Khushi:Ok...
Soon they both reached home took bath and had breakfast prepared by HP..and left to hospital...by the time they reached hospital Nani had already  taken bath and had changed her clothes  and was ready to go back home..soon they gave her breakfast that they brought..and around 11 they left the hospital they came to RM along with Anjali....
NK called Arnav and told he will come directly to RM...to meet Nani...
Anjali and Khushi took Nani to her room and asked her to take rest...
Anjali:Khushi...I ll be with Nani ...you and chote go and practise....
Khushi(sighs):Ok di....
Arnav and Khushi came to the room in which they were practising....
ASR:Khushi....are the costumes ready for us??
Khushi:Yes for both of us I have asked my friend to arrange it for us...and I have also arranged a mask for you....
ASR:Sorry??
Khushi:I know your helping me...but still you are the ASR...and you wouldn’t need any extra attention from the media by dancing with me....
ASR:But still its fine....
Khushi:I know but I want everyone to know about our marriage when both of us want to...not like this which starts with gossips and ends with our marriage thing...
ASR:Ok...as u wish....
With that they started practising continuosly they only took break few times just to have food and snacks and also to go and check upon Nani...NK had already visited Nani and went...Anjali was staying in RM for tonight ...to look after Nani in any case...even though Khushi told she’ll be there but Anjali had told her to practise fr one day seriously and from the next day she could look after Nani herself making Khushi agree to her...Sohan had called Khushi to confirm about Nani’ s health and was happy to know that she was discharged...Khushi had apologised to him for not being there...but he being her cousin understood the situation and didn’t blame her or anyone for not being able to be there....as he knew the reason...fr their absence...
Around 11.00P.M they both ended the practise extremely tired...and worn out...even though Khushi had insisted that practise was enough Arnav had insisted on doing it again and again...he didn’t want people to tell her and Vinay’s pair was better in any case or her to feel low about their performance because of him so he made sure he gave his 100% to the dance..and soon they came and slept after taking bath and food..and Arnav his medicines..they both fell on the bed instantly to be soon take over by sleep...bcs of extreme tiredness and fully prepared for the next days event...
