The truth to be told that despite of all the maze , She cannot stop herself admiring the nature of Arnav singh Raizada!! Wish every men could have same nature .. then Women would have a safer future
*************************************************************************************
Khushi let out a sigh as she wipes out her tears looking at her husband who walks in the room carrying their little daughter who have fallen asleep . He placed her on the bed while pulling the comforter on her as he glance at her wife ..
Arnav : What’s wrong with you ? ( He asked while roaming his eyes around her while khushi just nod her head and said )
Khushi : did you able to find the culprit behind Ashi’s attack ..
Arnav : not yet .. but the Police teams as well my men are working on it ... Whoever it might be will be regretting the big time for messing with me ..
Khushi : what if you find that Maa is behind of whatever happened with Ashi ? ( she said fumbling with words, as Arnav looked at her as He walks toward her )
Arnav : There would be No mercy .. even if it is your Mother .... ( The harshness is his tone make Khushi jerk on her place before she looks at her husband with tears brimming in her eyes .. can it be her mother )
Khushi : Do you really think Maa can do such thing ?
Arnav : Khushi .. I am not here to judge people .. I am saying according to my observations.. and the evident are also against your mother .. I really wish my assumptions are wrong but if it is not ..then ... ( He said before picking the towel from the recliner and walks toward the washroom to get change )
**************************************************
Next Day ,
Khushi smiles as she walks toward the breakfast table only to find Ayush feeding Ashi her milk while arnav was busy on Phone ...
Khushi : Ashi ...Hope you are not troubling daddu ..
Ashi pouts her lips while Ayush just shook her head and said ..
Ayush : areey Khushi .. why you always scare me little princess .. She is not troubling me hai nah ? ( He said picking Ashi in his lap while ruffling her hairs while Arnav came there finishing his call )
Arnav : You are going to office ? ( khushi just nodded her head tucking her hair strands behind her ears while ayush have understand the tension between the couple )
Ayush : it’s good that you are joining Office .. waise bhi .. what you are going to do sitting at home ? and don’t worry about Ashi .. I am there to take care of her ...
Arnav : Baba Saheb ! I know you are there .. But what is it so important for her to visit the office leaving her daughter all alone and that too after what all happened yesterday.
Khushi : Arnav .. I would have take a day off ... but it’s important.. with the heiring dates coming nearer ...
Khushi let out a sigh looking at arnav who barge out of the room in anger while Ayush blinks his eyes looking at Khushi who followed his husband behind
********************************************
Khushi : Arnav ... suniye ... ( she stops him as he was about to start the engine of his Suv .. ) Can you drop me to my office ..
Arnav just simply nodded his head gesturing her to sit in the car as Khushi let out a sigh ... at least she can try to communicate with him and bridge the gap between the two ..
Khushi tucks her hair while fidgeting with her fingers not able to understand how to start the conversation .. She can easily guess her husband Mood which is definitely not right at the moment ..
They have hardly communicate since yesterday and she cannot blame him totally ..'Why Life is taking so much test of them ..
She looks at her husband from the corner of her eyes before she clears her throat and leans her head on his shoulder hugging her arms around him making him flinch ...
Khushi : baby ..( she whispers looking at him , who is just focusing nothing else than the road )
Arnav : Khushi ..I am driving ,, Let me concentrate or else we will end up into an accident .. and I have a daughter to look behind ... So I cannot take risk ..
Khushi : ( sitting straight ) You only care about your daughter ? What about me ? Why are you behave so rude to me ? ( She said angrily pulling the accelerator making the car to come at Halt as Arnav looks at her with anger reflecting in his eyes)
Arnav : What the fuck are you doing Khushi ? Aren’t you getting late for office ?
Khushi let out a deep sigh before she said
Khushi: Arnav .. Ashi is also my daughter .. I also think the same way you think about her .. Do you really think I am happy for leaving my daughter and coming here to work !! but ...
Arnav : Khushi ... It’s just that our arguments will never end .. so better We just avoid talking with each other
Khushi: Arnav .. Please I know your anger for Maa is justified .. but do you really think Maa can stoop so low to harm ASHI ..
Arnav : You still need Proof against your Mother ... Do you forget if I was a minute late that day then Today my daughter would have been growing up in some Orphanage struggling for her identity and you would have been grieving on the loss considering your daughter being dead ..
Khushi lowers her eyes as she whispers
Khushi : I know .... But I am helpless being a daughter .. Tell me how would I bring myself to hate the woman who brought me in this world ..I know She did wrong .. And I know You have every reason to hate my mother .. And if my mother is really behind ASHI’s accident ..I Promise I won’t stop you from punishing her .....
Arnav just let out a sigh as he looks at his wife , as he leans wipe the corner of her eyes
Arnav : I over reacted on you .. But you know How sensitive I am when it comes to ASHI .. I never utters a word about Mrs. Gupta’s opinion about me ... Neither I have ever step behind fulfilling my responsibilities toward her as a SON IN LAW .. even though She have never considered me as one .. Forgetting everything, I even allowed you and my daughter to stay with her all these years knowing very well who manipulative she behave with my daughter some times ... Every Time Ashi comes complaining about your mother to me .. How much angry I get I still suppress it brushing off the thought with the Conclusion .. That’s it’s just a Family matter But Now it’s high time !! I don’t know Whether she is involve or not ? but what work she has to do in CENTRAL JAIL ... You mother has been seen loitering around the Bar of Shyam Manohar Jha ...
Khushi gasped as she blinks her eyes in shock , hearing his words ... Her Mother have gone to meet Shyam Manohar Jha .. but Why ...
*****************************************

Khushi sighed as She disconnects the call after speaking to ASHI who is right now engrossed in playing with her Father who have taken a Day Off from AR ... It’s good that Arnav have take a Day off today .. At- least some one of them would be there with the little child ..
But her thoughts were being engulfed by the words which are conveyed by Arnav ,,
Shyam Manohar Jha ? Was he saying right ? Shyam Manohar Jha is he really involved in harming ASHI ? and Her mother went to meet him in the Central Jail .. what connection does Her Mother have with that SHYAM MANOHAR JHA ..
The Man whom she have sent behind the bars years back , The Chapter which she thought to put an end ... have come clouding her present after all these years ..
Her thoughts are been disturbed as she heard some one calling her name
Nidhi : Mam ? where are you lost
Khushi : ( coming out of her thoughts) nothing ... You are telling me something isn’t it ?
Nidhi : haan Actually ..We need to meet Advocate Malik.. ( She placed the card toward Khushi’s table in which Khushi frowns before she pressed her forehead and groans )
Khushi : Ohh Fuck !! I really forget the date today .. I should be running to the court or else we would be losing the opportunity to this case forever ..
******************************************
Khushi ; How long are we going to wait here ? That Shit of Advocate what does he think of himself ? He keeps on waiting us for more than FIVE Hours and yet He is to meet us .. IS He think WE are sitting free here
Nidhi: Mam calm down !! Please I have heard a lot about Advocate Abhinav Malik.. He is one of the best lawyer in the town ..

Abhinav Malik : Excuse me who have let you inside my chamber ... I am busy .. you can leave now

Khushi grits her teeth in anger ... as she clench her fist
Khushi : Don’t you think you are crossing your Limits .. My life is my concern so better you stay out of it rather than concentrate on your profession .. I have came here for a CASE not ... to discuss on my personal Issue
Abhinav : Well Neither I am interested knowing your past Reporter ji .. but I have few rules .. I prefer knowing my clients before taking any case in hands .. And I must acknowledge your stupidity that You are hell bent to fight an already lost case ..
Khushi : Stupidity ? What you want to say by stupidity Advocate saheb ? Lost case . ? Just because few years back The court made it’s jurisdiction does not make everything ENDS ...
Abhinav ; Gupta Sahiba .. did you really think that I would be willing to take such a case in my hand where there is nothing to win for ?
Khushi : I have heard lot of praises about you but seems all are just fake.. ( she said glaring the lawyer while Abhinav smirks as He gesture Nidhi and his assistant to leave which they did instantly)
Abhinav ; What makes you think that Miss Anjali Raizada was an Innocent ? and what proves do you have to prove her and his brother Innocent ..
Khushi: I know they are innocent .. they were been trapped
Abhinav : your confidence will not able to prove anything to the court but the proof ... What proof you have to make them innocent
Khushi: I don’t have any
Abhinav : Still you came here asking me to fight for a battle where there is nothing you can get ...
Khushi ; it’s my responsibility to collect the evidences and I am collecting them .. it’s just ... I need your assurance to help me out ..
Abhinav : Fine ..... Confidence is good Reporter Sahiba .. and the case seems challenging .. Let’s see .. what can I do for you ..
Khushi: you are working on our case ...
Abhinav : Kind of you can say ..
