As planned Arnav has started to get ready for to their dinner. He kept a gift packed in Khushi's side of wardrobe and hid behind the poolside door to see her reaction. She opened the wardrobe and found a gift pack written 'For Mrs. KKGSR' . She thought who has kept a gift in her wardrobe. She turned around to check but did not find anyone in the room. She then opened the present and found a simple and beautiful red saree absolutely matching her taste . She then took the saree and thought to wear it for this evening meeting.
She got changed into that saree and wore a pair of golden dangles and her mangalsutra in neck. Few golden thin bangles and a tied bun .

He was dressed with his best suits and so handsome that any girl who sees him now would a crush on him forever. But what he required was his wife's attention. When he came back in his room to ask if she was ready , he could not take his eyes away from her. She was filling the partition of her head with the vermellion (Sindoor) of his name. She knew this would remain with him only for any few days. She turned back to see him lost in her, cleared her throat and said
" I am ready .. I think we should leave now"
He nodded and went down with her to meet his client. They reached at the restaurant and went to their reserved area waiting for their client to arrival. After thirty minutes, Khushi asked Arnav
"When will the client arrive... It's already 8:00 pm ... Why don't you call and see where he is , Arnavji"
He gulped down some water and said
"Let's start eating ... We will see when he arrives"
Khushi was shocked at his casual approach towards his business. Not wanting to extend the matter she started eating the served items. She felt the strange behaviour of Arnav.
Arnav was in the meantime preparing himself to reveal the real matter to Khushi . He was gathering all his strength.
When he saw Khushi has almost done with the meal , then he cleared his throat and said...
"Khushi, woh main... Actually aaj yaha koi client meeting nahi thi... Woh mujhe tumse kuch zaroori baatein karni thi isliye main ne tumhe iss dinner pe laya tha"
He hesitated and continued seeing no reaction from Khushi...
"I wanted to clear everything today... I know after hearing everything probably you would not want to see my face even ... But still I will have to clear all our misunderstanding today. I let you know the reason why I married you... Remember on Akash and Payal's wedding , I wanted to talk to you... When I came down and asked HP if he has seen you, he said he saw you going towards the terrace... I followed you there ... But I heard was beyond my expectations... Shyam , my sisters husband was coffessing his love to another woman... Do you know who that woman was... She was love of my life... What more shocked me was .... She clearly asking him to leave my sister..."
Tears had already started to roll down her eyes...
Arnav still continued...
" I was unable to believe what I was seeing... I thought I will declare my love for her... But here she is planning to snatch my sister's husband... I just couldn't wait there to hear more...she was already in his hold... What more would proof that they were lovers...I later confronted Shyam and he declared that they were indeed lovers... So I thought to inform Di... But I was again surprised by Di with the good news of her pregnancy... So what came in my mind was I had to seperate the lovers...hence I married the person whom my Jijaji love's dearly"
She could stop herself from sobbing and asked him one question...
"Why now.... Why now ...."
She couldn't wait more to here his sins.
She quickly exited from the restaurant and started walking in the footpath alone. Arnav has already started to follow her and called her name loudly... But she seems to be least bothered about it...
He ran to catch her speed and hold her tightly and said ...
" Khushi please... Khushi please give me a chance... Atleast a chance to explain you everything"
" I know I should have asked you ... But that time I could help myself to believe him... I was broken Khushi... That day I realised that I was in love and I couldn't accept that my girl would betray me... "
He hugged her from back and continued...
" These feelings were new for me ... You can say the feelings that you evoked inside me has already died at the age of fourteen along with my mother... Those scenes reminded me of my mother and her betrayal from father...I know these cannot be considered as reasons for the pain that I have instilled within you... May be if I have not heard the truth from Shyam's mouth then I would not have the courage to ask you the truth Khushi ... If you confirmed that you truly loved him... then what about me... But now I realised may be I should have gathered some courage to ask you... So this pain of regret could have been avoided... "
They had crying and it seems the sky has also joined them in their pain. Arnav crying in the pain of regret and Khushi in the pain of betrayal and lack of trust from her lover...

He wanted to hold tightly that she couldn't escape from his hold , and also from his world but he knew it was now her decision whether to remain in his world or to move far away where he could not reach her.
He slowly released his hold and turned him towards her. He could clearly see the heart breaking sobs that escaped from her mouth. Waiting no further , he captured her mouth with in his.
paas aaye.. dooriyaan phir bhi kam naa huin ek adhoori si hamaari kahaani rahi aasmaan ko zameen, ye zaroori nahi jaa mile.. jaa mile.. ishq sachcha wahi jisko milti nahi manzilein.. manzilein..
we came close, yet the distances never reduced. our story remained incomplete.. it is not necessary that the earth always goes to meet sky.. the true love is the one that does not get a destination..
rang thay, noor tha jab kareeb tu tha ek jannat sa tha, ye jahaan waqt ki ret pe kuch mere naam sa likh ke chhoD gaya tu kahaan
there were colors, there was light, when you were near me. this world was like heaven.. on the sand of time, you left something like my name written..
hamari adhoori kahani.. hamari adhoori kahani..
our incomplete story, our incomplete story..
