*************************************************************************************
Two days passed by .. and in these two days khushi have learnt anything or not but ... she have started taking little care of her health and all because of arnav ‘s words .. his words realy did .. a great impact on her ..some how .. though she hardly talk with her mother ... nor she have completely dropped down her bad habits .. it says bad habit doesn’t go that easily but ... atleast ... it’s better to start somewhere isn’t it ... in these two days aranv didn’t able to come to meet khushi but .. he have every single details of her whereabouts ...
Khushi walked down of the stairs wearing a hot pants and a tube top .. with a high hel .. and her ahir was tied in a loose pony tale .. and she was holding a cigar in her hand which she was blewing ... freqwently .. garima who was sitting in the living room working on her laptop ... just look at her daughter .. she became angry .. not on her but on herself because of her neglegency ... her daughter is like this today !!
Khushi was about to walk ahead when garima stopped her ...
Garima : are you going somewhere out ? ( khushi ignored her qwestion and just walked out of the house determindedly garima stood up and let out garsp suppressing her inner turmoil)
Garima : k...khushi .. ( she said while gulping the pain she was going through seeing the terrific condition of her daughter ..she is hell bent to spoil herself .. she is punishing herself ?? she is destroying herself and being a mother she cant see her daughter destruction by her own eyes ... she sighed and slumped down on the couch .. and glance at the clock it was 11 pm at the night .. she sighed and slowly wiped out of her tears and dialed aranv’s number)
Garima : hello beta !! ( pause) khushi ... have .. went out right now .( pause) no she didn’t tell anything .. !! ( she cut the call and let out a sigh )
***************************************
Khushi was sitting near the bar counter In the pub and was drinking glass after galss to suppress her inner turmoil .. this is the only way she have to take out her frustration .. she have with her life .. she just felt suffocated to breathe even .. from the childhood days she is the one who only suffered for other deds!! She is the one who became a victim of her parents fight ... she is the one who is being neglect because of her mother works .. and she is the one who was being played by player ..and she is the one who become victim of RAPE !!
She closed her eyes and sipped the drink in one go .. her heart was aching to think about her past ... she tries to remove herself from the alchahoil but no she cant because only this can able to keep her diverted from the pain and misery she received from the life ...
She opened her eyes and placed the empty glass on the counter and said with ...a commanding tone ..
Khushi : one more !! ( the serving boy looked at her and said politely)
Service boy: mam the bar have being closed ... you might leave it’s too late !!
Khushi : ( with authorative tone) I said!! One more drink serve me!!
Service boy : sorry mam !! ... you cant get anymore please leave ( khushi flared her nose in anger .. and stood up while throwing the galss somewhere in the floor in anger ..she was literally high ... and she was so high that she cant even stood up properly ..... her eyes were blur .. but she manged to say while pointing her finger toward him )
Khushi: ( totally drunk) you ... you are telling no to me ?? no to me ?? do you know who I am ??? I am khushi gupta !! .. I can eat up your job in no time !! ... do you get it !! .. ( she literally yelled making the manager came there)

Khushi ; am .. am ..i dreaming ( she said trembling she rubbed her eyes by her palm ) nahh !! arnav singh raizada !!( she pointed out her finger to him ) you reached here also ?? huh ?? are you spying on me ? ki jaha bhi jati hoon tum bhi wahi wahi pahuch jate ho( wherever I went .. you too reach there following me ) ( aranv tries to held her arms as she was trembling and high smell was coming from her mouth which was quite familiar to him)
Aranv : ( maintaining his calmness) you are drunk !! ( khushi tried to open her eyes with a force)
Khushi : ( placing index finger on his lips) sshh!! Don’t start with your gyaans !! right now !! .... tell me one thing .. who is the writer of your heavy heavy gyans that you give me everyday ? ( khsuhi said makinga expression) .. you ?? ( aranv looked at her for a while and then at the staff .. who was staring at them specially at khushi with lusty eyes aranv held khushi’s wrist and pulled her behind him still clutching the wrist )
Aranv : whats the matter !! ( he said with a strict tone but not in a loud voice .. )
Manager: mam was not listening to us the bar has closed sir ( he said in atrembling voice knowing the person is no one but a sr the god of business )
Arnav removed his valet and paid some . bucks to them and started walking out of the bar while s till holding khushi and pulling her close to him .... khsuhi was struggling ... and was flinching ...while aranv took her out of the bar .. he walked to the parking laut to his car .. that’s when khushi rescued her hand from his held with a jerk and said

Arnav : hello ( glancing at khushi who was blankly staring at outside through the window) yeah she is with me aunty don’t worry ..
**************************************
Arnav braked the car inside his apartment parking .. it was too late .. and khushi have already dozed off due to alchahoil effect .. and thus he thought ... it wont be a good idea to take her to her house as seeing her condition .... gariam might get worried unnecessarily ... that’s why he brought here in his apartment ..
He walked inside the room while carrying the sleepy khushi in his arms who was clutching his shirt coller in her fist and was snoring lightly due to the effect of alchahoil .. arnav slowly .. walked toward the bed .. and placed her down while adjusting the pillows over her back and under her head ... aranv was about to move uo but couldn’t as he felt a pull in his coller .. and he again ... lean over khushi while somehow balancing himself while placing his both palm by her side ... he looked at the sleeping figure .... and then just looked at the place she was holding .. she was holding his coller tightly in her fist like a baby .. he lifted his gaze and looked at her face .... with a soft bereeze hitting them ..arnav couldn’t help but admire her ...... beauty .. she look so peaceful when she sleep ! she is truly an angel .. an angel who might have lost her path in the harshness of the world .. aranv’s stance get broken by the beeping sound of his phone .. he slowly freed her clutch from his shirt and move up while placing a kiss over her forehead and got down of the bed while glancing at the caller id and received the call and walked out of the room while closing the door behind not letting her disturb
As he received the call the other person shoot her qwerries over him and he smiled by her tantrums she wont change .. ever !!
Nisha : bhai ... !! I am in trouble ... ( arnav frowned his eyebrows and then smiled)
Arnav : you are in love with some of a guy ... and want to continue your relation ship .. with him but on the otherside mumma .. and nani is finding a groom for you .and pressurizing you for getting married ... .. and even you cant find how to say a no and to say about him ... ( nisha was stunned and her eyes opened wider ... how does his brother get to know everything and that too before uttering )
Nisha : how .. ( pause ) you aren’t even here
Arnav : ( smiled ) do it’s necessary to be present physically there to have details about my baby sister ... ( nisha smiled .. ) I know every whereabout you baby !! .. and that guy name is arjun ? right ? ( nisha blushed like tomatoe )
Nisha; umhh umhh ( she hesitate )
Aranv : okay .. I will talk to mumma about him no worry thik hai
Nisha : bhai that means you are not angry ... I thought ... ( arnav cutting her off)
Arnav ; you thought like a typical brother I will shout on my sister for loving someone .. nope !! absulately not ... ( he said with smirk) and I tell yes having a proper .. back ground check on him ... and I don’t have any objection till he didn’t bring tears in your eyes .. or else I will break up his ribs for crying my little baby !! ( nisha smiled she was too fond of her elder brother he is too good !! ... and never saya no to her any way ... though they aren’t .. from .. one mother’s womb but yet .. he never dishtinguish between her and her’s elder sister .. a njali ... instead he is more close to nisha than anjali .. actually ... arnav’s father have an illegimate affair with nisha’s mother ... he actually trapped her mother .. in his faked love whose result was nisha .. arnav;s mother attempt suicide .. knowing the bitter truth of .. her husband leaving her two small children to starve alone . and following her mother her father too followe the same way .. he too kill himself feling insulted and guilty ... .. later when they find out the truth and nisha ‘s mother came to theier door step with some month old ... nisha in her arms .. atfirst nani hesitate ... to accept them .. as she felt .. she was the reason of her daughter’s death ... but it was 16 years arnav only who bring them in the house while holding the hand of arti .. and her daughter nisha .. he was the first one .. who .. give her the respect and made her sit on the .. position of her mother .. calling her mumma .. which arti too gladly accept .. and she too never ... denied to accept him as her elder son ... he is more than her son .. and she felt proud to called herself as a mother of a son like aranv singh raizada !! ... and only because of aranv arti and .. nisha able to get a respected life .. though nisha was not aware of this bitter truth .. as arnav have always ..aware everyone not to utter this infront of her .. and till the date he have given her care as a brother and a father both .... )
