IT'S COMPLICATED

CHAPTER-9

Khushi squirmed under the hand trying to free herself...she witnessed her parents and Buaji being kidnapped...now the men were leaving in their vans...she tried once again to get out of the hold by her remaining energy but couldn't the hold was too tight...

"Relax Bhabhi...I am removing my hand but don't make noise...they are still here..." said NK...Khushi nodded...NK removed his hands and Khushi pushed him hard...

"Bhabhi...relax..."

"Relax!!! They took my parents, my Buaji..."

"Bhabhi right now I have to keep you safe...then only we can save your family...please trust me...come with me..." said NK softly...

Khushi somehow calmed by his words...though he was a stranger but his eyes, his body language seems familiar...his words soothed her...nudged her to trust him...so she agreed to go with him....there she saw someone else waiting for them in a car...

"Aman...we have to leave the place fast..." said Nk hurriedly taking the passenger seat after settling Khushi at the back seat....

"Oh sorry Bhabhi...I forgot to introduce myself...I am NK..."

"I am Aman...Nice to meet you..."

Khushi felt weird...they were so comfortable with her as if she was known to them from ages...

"I am Khushi..."

"We know Bhabhi..." both said in unison...

"Wait...why are you addressing me Bhabhi?"

"Well you will get to know soon..." said Aman smiling...

"Aman" came a voice from the microphone settled in the car...

"ASR"

"Arnavji..." exclaimed Khushi

"Khushi...tum theek ho?"

"Hmm...Arnavji...Papa...Maa..." sobbed Khushi

"Ssshhh...I am here...everything will be fine...don't get afraid...Nk and Aman will take you to me..." came his soothing voice surprising Aman and NK...in all these years for the first time they heard their rude Bhai and ASR speaking so sweetly...

"Hmm..."

"Bhai they are close...take the left..." came another voice

"There is no left Akash..." said Arnav driving straight...cars and bikes following him showering their bullets at him...Khushi frowned at the sounds...

"Bhai...you have to drive straight some more then take left..."

"Be specific idiot..."

"Sorry..."

"What sorry Akash? You can't even read a map..." sighed NK...

"Says who?" remarked Akash...

"Excuse me...where is Arnavji? And what are those sounds?" asked Khushi but before Aman could answer anything...Nk shouted... "Bhai...see Aman its Bhai in the car..." everyone looked at the direction Nk pointed...it was Arnav chased by cars and bikes...

"Arnavji...Hey Devimaiya Why is he driving so fast? Why are they following..." but before she could complete to her horror she heard firing sounds...

"Hey Devimaiya...they are firing bullets...they will kill him..." said Khushi shaking Nk's arms hard... "Help him...he needs help..."

"Relax Bhabhi...Bhai can tackle..." said Nk...both of them excitedly seeing the chase unknown to the storm sitting behind him...

"Are you both mad? Is this any game that you are enjoying? My husband is in danger...." Shouted Khushi taking their breath out...

"Bhabhi don't worry...he will be.." but Khushi cut in...

"Hey Devimaiya...where is he going now? He is taking the other route? Follow him...he might need help..."

"Sorry Bhabhi...but ASR ordered us to take you at base..."

"Are you out of your mind? I said follow his car"

"But Bhabhi...we can't...Bhai will"

"Follow now..." both were confused but they can't disobey the fire sitting behind them so they followed Arnav's car which was heading towards a remote area...

"She is just like him..." muttered Aman only for NK to hear...he sighed...

Very soon Arnav's car was surrounded by the cars...he had to get out of his car...

"ASR give us the bag and we will let you go..." said a man smiling...all the men pointed their guns at him...Arnav walked to him and forwarded the bag... for a second the man was blank...

"No games Raizada..."

"you can check...I am alone...I can't win anyways..." came his reply...the man opened the box to find it empty but he didn't have the time to face Arnav because by then Arnav snatched his gun and shot him...he covered himself with the body and shot the men one by one...some men clutched him from behind...he fought them like a pro... Aman parked the car nearby and they can now see him fight...Nk moved out to help him whereas Aman stayed there with Khushi...

Surprise will not be sufficient but she doesn't know what to feel by the scene she was seeing...her Arnavji was fighting with 5-6 heavyweight men alone...his shirt was nowhere to be seen...his body full of sweat and blood...

Khushi came out of the car discarding Aman's pleadings...one of the man pointed a gun from behind much to her horror...

"Arnavji..." shouted Khushi... Arnav got distracted by the familiar voice and as he looked at her direction...the man missed his aim...but before he could aim his next shot he was taken down by Arnav...he shot him straight in his head...

Arnav ran to her... he took her in his arms..."tum theek ho?" asked  Arnav cupping her face before dropping a kiss on her forehead...

"Arnavji...you...all these..." cried Khushi clutching him tight...

"Relax...everything is fine..."

"They were following you...Arnavji you were fighting....Why..." asked Khushi too much confused with everything...

"It's complicated baby..." said Arnav smirking but the smell of blood hit her nerves and she lost her senses...
