Sheesh Mahal, Lucknow
Aman was on his toes, checking the last minute arrangements of the fashion show. He knew any mistake from his side and he will be getting burned down for the fourth time in this week. Aman very well accustomed to his boss anger, but was still scared of and why wouldn't anyone be. ARNAV SINGH RAIZADA the name was enough to send shivers down anyone's spine and Aman was no different.
After going through with all the arrangements Aman reported the same to Arnav. This was one of the very important fashion show for AR and any mistake could cost his company a lot.
Everything went smooth until a model or maybe not a model fell into ASR's arms out of the blue. Aman was sure that his career is ruined, but at the same time he was worried for the young lady who fell into his boss's arms. Asr dragged the young lady with him to a room and closed the door with a bang.
ROOM
Girl's  POV
What if he was not standing there I would have broken my bone
Arnav's POV
What if I was not there. She can never be trusted to be left by herself. I don't how she manages herself when I'm not around.
Arnav holds the girl by her shoulder and looked straight into her eyes and says " when will you learn to walk properly without slipping or falling."
Girl bites her lips innocently and says " I'm sorry Arnav, Your managers confused me with some model and pushed me to the stage before I could understand anything, I was on stage and the rest is history."
Arnav-Khushi you should be more careful and what were doing backstage you know na that I will I the audience.
Khushi- I got confused and ended up on the backstage.
"pagal"(mad) Arnav muttered and hugged Khushi.
A-i missed you so much
K-me too
A-between what are doing here anyway
K- i came to meet you of course
A- isn't it supposed to be Payal's wedding today.
K- yes, it is and about that, I need 5lakh cash
A-all of a sudden 5lakhs
K- the groom's family has placed a demand for the amount so I need to return with the amount only then the wedding  will proceed.
A- this is straight forward asking for dowry,why is your family agreeing to it.
K- we had no idea about this untill this afternoon, and being a bank holiday I was unable to get any money from there. The card limit for the day has also been exhausted. You very well know a broken marriage can be very tormenting for the bride and her family.
(Flashes of the past came in front of Arnav's eyes)
A-wait let me ask Aman, how much cash do we have with us.
K-arnav make it fast, I'm already late if I get more late, it would a problem
A-dont worry, I'm here.
Arnav took out his phone, called Aman and enquired about the cash status and asked him to bring the cash to his room in 5 mins.
A- we have almost 4 and half lakhs in cash
K- thank God I was so worried that Jiji's marriage will stop but now it will not.
(And out of happiness she hugged Arnav)
I love you, l love you so much Arnav.
A- I know(with his trademark smirk on his face.)
Between did I tell you that you're are looking breath taking today.
And she blushed on his comment.
Aman knocked on the door, Arnav opened the door and took the suitcase from his hand and proceed to go out with Khushi.
Aman wanted to tell Arnav something but before he could, his boss was gone already.
Marriage Venue
Arnav dropped Khushi near the venue.
A-call me after everything is done
K-sure
She moved out of the car and rushed towards the venue but the scene here was different, there was no music or chatering of guests or any other sign that it was a marriage venue. She rushed inside to see her jiji crying along with her amma and buaji, and babuji was sitting with an emotionless face. She understood that marriage was called off but wanted to know why.
She went near her jiji and hugged her.
Payal- where were you we were all worried about you
K-i went to arrange the money she said pointing towards the bag she had.
Shashi- it's of no use as they left when they got to know that the money was not yet arranged and also the younger daughter of the house was missing when there is a wedding at home.

Khushi gasps in horror realising that it's all because of her .
S-no don't blame yourself you did all you could to save the wedding, maybe it was written in the fate and no one can defy the fate anyway.
Khushi holds payals hands and says"I'm sorry jiji"
P-please don't Khushi, I don't blame anyone and it's good that we got to know their true face before the marriage only said trying gain some courage.
Maybe he was not the one I was destined to get married to.
Buaji-hey re nandkishore(hrn) Jo hui gava us pe rone ka kono fayda nahi hai, Hamar bachi ki zindagi barbad hone se Bach gava e se koi bada baat nahi hua.(there is no need to cry, it's good only our child life's got saved from getting spooled)
Garima-you are right jiji.
All retired for the day, it was a long and exhausting day for everyone.

It's my first attempt in writing I hope you all will appreciate it and forgive me for my mistakes.
