Sheesh Mahal
Arnav sighed watching Khushi training how to walk on ramp, "If this is your state with sandals, then I wonder what's going to be your state with high heels?"
"It's you who asked me to do this.. I told you before that I don't know all these.." Khushi glared at him.
"You're not listening to me Khushi.." he said.
"You're not teaching me properly.." she pouted putting hands on her hips.
"So what do you expect me to do? Walk like a lady to show an example.." Arnav gave her a sarcastic look.
"It would be better.." she said biting her lips to control her laugh imagining him walk like a lady.
"What the.. unbelievable!" Arnav shook his head, taking his laptop he opened some video of models walking on ramp and showed to Khushi, "Do you see how gracefully they are walking? You have to do like them.. and since you will be dressed as a bride, you can smile a little and your body language should reflect a bride's behavior.."
"Okay.." Khushi nodded memorizing each steps and poses by the models.
"Let's take a break now.. you must be tired na.." Arnav said caressing her cheek.
Khushi moved back and looked at him uncomfortable, "Arnav ji you know that I haven't forgiven you yet and doing all this kissing me, hugging me or caring for me is making me feel uncomfortable after those insults I bear from you.. It's so easy to judge someone wrong and when you know that it's not their fault, you behave lovingly and sweetly like this as if nothing happened and you think I will forget everything when you behave with me like this.. It's not easy for me to forget all that you did with me, your harsh words still ring in my ear, the images of you throwing me out of Sheesh Mahal and then handing over to me our divorce papers are still fresh in my mind.. I just can't be the same Khushi with you again.. it hurts for me.."
"It's not easy for me as well Khushi.. I know what I did with you is unforgivable but just try to think of my point of view.. I'm not saying that I'm right and you should forgive me.. but I always grew up loving my family more than anyone in this world, after my father betrayed my mother, I only had them who took care of me when we came to Delhi, I used to leave for work with the thought that they're helping me and Di, they are giving me and Di something to eat even though they struggled also to get their own meals, they never treated us like slaves for being orphan, they gave us place to stay and room to sleep and never differentiated me or Di from Akash.. and I should work hard and give them the best life for all they have done to me.. I was blind in their love and caring behavior that I failed to see the truth.. I failed Khushi.. but tell me would you believe in a stranger who became your wife in almost an unexpected way over your family who you blindly trusted and loved since childhood? Would you ever doubt in them? Would you ever feel that they could hide their true face from you? Would you ever believe that they are betraying you?" he asked.
"But I know that whatever the situation was, I shouldn't have pointed my finger at your character and humiliate you in front of your family, especially your father.." he said genuinely.
"But you said you trusted me.." a lone tear escaped her eyes.
"But I loved and trusted them way more than you.." he said staring at her face with sad look. He didn't wish to break her heart, but that was the truth.
