Be My Forever
Chapter 8

There were jerks that caused Arnav to wake up. He hadn't realised when he had fallen asleep. He looked around. He could see smoke erupting from the car's bonnet. "What the hell happened?" He asked shifting towards the door. The driver got off too. When he didn't answer Arnav turned towards the driver after approaching him. His eyes widened in shock. Either he was obsessed with Khushi or she was really standing before him dressed in the driver's uniform. "Hi!" She greeted when she saw him gaping. "Are you mad?"

"Perhaps a little." She answered and turned to the erupting smoke from the car. "Are we safe here? I mean this car won't blow up right?" She asked concerned unconsciously stepping sideways towards him. He let out an exasperated sigh and walked closer to the bonnet. "Careful!" She whispered he looked up at her giving her a glare. He coughed stepping away as a huge cloud of smoke escaped. Once the smoke cleared he leaned forward and analyzed. "This system is pretty old." He declared stepping away. "Now care to explain where the legitimate driver is?"

"Back at the resort." She answered, while he stared at her. "This is all your fault. Before getting on the highway the car's health should be checked. This ..." he gave up the need to even express his irritation and walked around. His eyes scanned the surrounding.

"Why the hell are we here? Are you nuts? This isn't the route." He exclaimed looking on either sides at the empty road flagged by blanket of trees on either side.

"Hey, Google map showed this as the best route." She answered now worried. This wasn't her plan. Her plan was to reach Pune and confront him. This seemed like the best way to not lose track of him.

"Khushi, not everything that Google shows is right. Sometimes you need a freaking mind. This area is famous for it's bandits." He scolded her opening the car's door. He got his phone out only to see it dead. Damn, he hadn't even carried his power bank. "Give me your phone." He spoke without meeting her eyes. She did as she was told. Right now he was a little tensed and perhaps very much angry. Khushi knew it wasn't the right time to talk.

"There's no network coverage." He looked up horrified. "Yeah, from past twenty minutes there hasn't been any. I have saved the route offline." She stated trying to take her phone from his hand. He dodged the phone away. "God! Mad woman you have no clue how much trouble we are in."

Khushi was simply staring at him. "Let me call for help." He looked at her with cold humor shining in his eyes. "And who would you call- the resort? They will take hours to come here. It will be evening in two hours we can't be stuck here." He spoke more to himself. He walked around to the trunk of the car. No tools there as well. He walked back to where she was standing. "Thank you for getting us into this mess." He snarled taking his blazer from the back seat. He opened his suitcase and his hand bag and stuffed in a few things. Shutting the door he turned to her, "Lock the car and Inform the resort to pick it up from here. I suppose you are the driver so it's your responsibility. My suitcase is inside by the way." He spoke taking just the small air bag in his hand shoving inside it the water bottle.

Khushi smiled. She was perhaps in a very messy situation she had been in for years. But the fact how he used us instead of me had her heart. He was angry and upset yet that didn't stop him from caring about her. She quickly locked the car and typed out a message to the report's manager who had helped her to get to be Arnav's driver.
