Thank you guys for your support. Here is the next part. Hope you all like it

  Arnav enters his room holding Khushi's hand. Who was crying now. He makes her sit on bed and cups her cheek. "Khushi... look at me". He said tenderly. 

Khushi looked at him with teary eyes. Arnav felt an immense urge to smack that Aditya's head for hurting his Khushi. He wipes her tears.

"Khushi please stop crying..don't worry...I will be there for you..OK..Don't cry please".He said consoling her.

Khushi looks up this man with moist eyes.She always feels safe with him and she knows that whatever happens he will be there for her to protect her..She nodes her head and wipes her tears.

Arnav smiled in relief."Now that's like my khushi".He said to cheer her up.

Khushi smiled at him. "Thank you Arnavji.".But Arnav silenced her." No need Khushi. You know that I don't like you being this formal with me".He said annoyed and frowns his brows. 

Khushi giggled seeing his expressions and like always he got lost in her. But his trance broke hearing his phone ringing. He gives a frustrated look to his phone while Khushi gets up and leaves the room smiling to herself.

Later in the evening.

"KHUSHII". Anjali yells from her room..Khushi runs to Anjali's room. "Haa Anjali Maam did you call me".She asked standing near the doorstep.

" Why the hell you haven't cleaned my room". Anjali said with angrily.

Khushi got scared seeing her anger." Sorry mam I will do it right away"..She said fearfully.

"Do what Anjali ".They were interrupted by Arnav who just reached from office. 

"Nothing. I just asked her to clean my room". Anjali said annoyed. 

Arnav looks around her room. He can see that everything is messed and scattered around.And he very well knows that it was done by Anjali for making Khushi work hard.He looked at her sharply.

"What Bhai why are you looking me like that".She asked him narrowing her eyes.

"You very well knows the reason Anjali. as far as I know Khushi had cleaned your room today morning.Then how-come it's this messy now". He asked glaring at her.

"So what Bhai. we are paying her for this naa". She said looking evilly at Khushi. 

"ANJALII". Arnav shouted and Khushi looked down felling her eyes welled up.

"What happend Chote". Swetha comes running to them haring the shout. 

She sees a very angry Arnav and Anjali and between them Khushi was crying silently. 

"What's the matter Chote?". She asked touching his shoulder.

"Ask your daughter to behave Maa".With that Arnav narrated the whole incident.

Swetha looked at Anjali disappointed." When will you learn Anjali".She said.

"So every one is in her web now.FINE". She said frustrated and slams the door.

Swetha puts her hand on Khushi's shoulder." Don't feel bad beta. You know naa how is she".She said caressing Khushi's cheek with other hand.

Khushi nodes head and wipe her tears." I was cleaning the dishes. I will go and wash the remaining". With that she goes to kitchen.

Both Arnav and Swetha shared a not so pleased expression.

Unaware to them Aditya watched the entire incident." So Anjali hates Khushi. Now that will make my plan easier". He said cunningly.


Late night at Khushi's home


Khushi was crying bitterly in her room after bearing the beatings of her mother. Today one more proposal for Payal got rejected because he wants to marry Khushi. After they left Garima starts to curse her and beat her.She can still hear Garima and Payal abusing her character. She wish that she could share all this with someone.But no one seems to understand her except Arnav. 

"Arnav", thinking about him her lips broke into a slight smile. With his thoughts she closed her eyes to get some sleep.  

  Next day evening


Khushi is returning from her class. She is walking hurriedly. She knows that if she becomes late dadiji will taunt her for being irresponsible. She is really tensed looking at the clouded sky. 

Her chain of thoughts were disturbed by the sudden halt of a car near her. She knows whose car is this and as expected , Arnav rolled down the glass.

He chuckled seeing her shocked expression. "Khushi, get in the car I will drop you". He said.

Khushi comes out of her shock. "Nahi Arnavji why are you troubling yourself the bus will comes in a while". She replied hesitantly.

"Khushi". Arnav said sternly. And she knows that she lost the battle. She gets in the car silently.

Arnav is constantly stealing glances at her while driving and Khushi is enjoying the side view. He smiled inwardly looking at her expressions. 

Suddenly his smile dropped noticing the red mark on her elbow. He knows what could have happen.
