One week later..

                Arnav Singh Raizada had always played the role of a cynic in his family because his family were too trusting , and he had no intention of getting them hurt . It was why he didn't share his cousin enthusiasm as he dashed out of his office probably to meet one of the Gupta sisters .

                   From the words of Akash ,Payal couldn't possibly be a human as he had elevated her to sainthood. And surprisingly no one was more pleased with the development than Mamiji who is already planning the wedding .

                   While his nani and di were disappointed that he didn't click with khushi they didn't ask much about his date once he told them that they won't suit. 

        " Before you ask how the date went ,let me tell you she doesnt like me either . So I finished my side of the deal, no more marriage talks  " he told them once he got home after the date .

        But when Akash returned back a hour later ,he didn't have to say a word for his family to gather how the date went considering he was shy  they didn't pester him with questions as well . 

         Which meant Arnav was alone with his suspicions , he couldn't trust Khushi and whatever she told him that day . Because the girl who went to the lengths to spy on him claims she has no interest in marrying him .

          The more she stressed that she was here for her sister ,the more suspicious he got and by the end of the date he was glad that he didn't have to meet her anymore except Akash who liked her sister so much that he is basically daydreaming in office .

           Add to that today he had to have an awkward conversation with Mamiji who asked him if he was okay with Akash getting married first , while he has no problem with Akash getting married first ,he has problem with letting him get married to someone he can't trust yet.

            It was the reason he drove to some place he had never went before instead of home once the working hour ended and as always he found his brother in law lost in the case files .

            " Can I come inside " Arnav asked as he knocked on the door surprising his brother in law because in the five years he had been married to his sister ,Arnav never visited his work place once .

          " Any problem , Anjali is fine right ,I just talked to her an hour ago " his brother in law asked him instead coming to the conclusion only a  problem will bring Arnav into his doorsteps and he was right .

         " I need to confess something " Arnav answered back yet again surprising him ,while Arnav respected his brother in law and liked him even they were not used to having heart to heart talks either .

          As if understanding it going to be something that troubling Arnav, his brother in law simply asked him to take a seat and speak ,the lawyer in him was back as he listened to what Arnav had to say then he laughed totally confusing him by his behavior.

           " You aren't angry with me ?" Arnav asked because surely he expected some sort of anger from his brother in law .

            " For what ,that you hired someone to look into me before I got married to your sister . Arnav ,I know how much you adore your sister and I would be surprised if you didn't , and what brought this sudden urge to confess don't tell me you are still spying on me .

             Because doing so before marriage was fine but I would be disappointed that I can't earn your trust even after five years " his brother in law answered back leaving Arnav pleasantly surprised that he had taken it lightly than he anticipated.
