Silent Affair (On Hold)

Chapter Twenty Seven

After the revelation his sister had poured on him, Arnav was absolutely confused. Never did he think that Khushi... it just didn't make any sense to him.

Is Di lying to me? She had to have been lying to me, I mean... what the-?

Arnav felt a tap on his shoulder and when he looked to see who it was, he saw that it was Khushi.

"Whoa! I mean, hey, what's up?"

Khushi frowned at Arnav, tilting her head. What's wrong with him?

She held out his cup of coffee for him and Arnav swiped it away.

Huh?

"Um, I thought Bhromor was supposed to be going around giving everyone their tea and coffee?"

She went out to do some shopping, although its been quite some time... but what's it to him?

Khushi placed her hand at her waist and looked Arnav up and down.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Why are you acting all weird, she arched her eyebrow at him.

"Touché. Um... I've got some work to do, I'll be in my study," and Arnav headed off.

But-! What the?

"Oh good lord...."

Khushi turned to see Anjali, who was laughing away.

"...he's such a child," she laughed.

This time Khushi looked at Anjali with a frown, her head tilted.

"Uh, well... I may have let it slip that you would totally - if given the chance - be touchy-touchy with him..."

Khushi's eyes widened.

"...if you know what I mean," she winked.

What-? Di!!!

Khushi looked at her exasperatedly before covering her face with her hands.

Now I'm just as mortified as Avantika!

"Hey, relax," Anjali said, placing her hand around her shoulders. "I mean, now that he knows, you two just might have a chance at... yeah."

Khushi looked up at her with a scowl.

"Look, its gross for me considering he's my brother but you're my girl! You're like a sister to me, I have to look out for you!"

Khushi arched her eyebrow at her.

"Hey don't give me that look, you're making me seem like some weirdo."

Uh yeah, and she rolled her eyes.

"Hey I'm not being weird, I'm not being weird at all, the only one who acts weird is Avantika."

Khushi looked at Anjali, her expression questionable.

"Oh no," Anjali gasped. "I am acting like Avantika."

Khushi pursed her lips, looking away.

Anjali gasped once more. "Double oh no...."

This time Khushi looked at her in confusion.

"Khushi come with me," and Anjali grabbed her hand and dragged her upstairs.

What the-? She really is acting like Avantika!

Khushi followed after Anjali into her room. Anjali had her sit down while she went into her closet to rummage through her belongings.
