Part 1 Arnav is in RM

Gupta House

Shashi Gupta was eating fast.

"Slowly... you may get choked," Garima said while passing him a glass of water.

"I have to go. Or else, Arvind will go alone." Shashi said while stuffing the roti into his mouth.

"Did he ask you to accompany him?"

"No..."

"Then why are you flying?"

"It's not necessary for him to ask me anything because I'm his friend. I know what he feels."

"I'm not talking about it. What if he doesn't want you to accompany him today?" she asked contently.

Shashi stopped eating and looked at her.

"What do you mean?"

"Arnav may feel ashamed to see you..."

Leaving the plate half-finished, Shashi got up.

"Don't get upset, Babuji. Aman is right." NK said.

"Haan, Arnav is coming from jail, not from the tour. In these four years of jail life, he would have changed a lot. Don't think him the old Arnav."

Shashi sat on the couch upset.

"Poor boy. How happy he was... that ***** ruined his life." Shashi gritted his teeth.

Garima gestured him to see Khushi who just stopped eating, hearing an uncultured word.

"I'm sorry beta." Shashi apologized.

Khushi continued eating after throwing a mild smile at Shashi.

"Arnav should have lived happily. Poor him..." Shashi felt bad for him.

"What's the use of talking about what we can't change?" Garima said.

"He could have escaped from the case if he had wanted but he didn't. He surrendered at the police station. " Shashi said sadly.

Khushi and NK spared a glance at Garima.

"I just can't forget the moment when I saw him sitting in the police station with his shirt full of blood strain."

"Neither did he agree to meet his parents nor did he agree to come on bail, but why?" NK asked.

Shashi nodded yes.

"He was that much weary not to see any of crying face. He asked me to make Ratna understand before going to jail."

"Arvind Bhai should not have made him marry that girl," Garima said something that happened four years ago that can't be changed anymore.

"What would he do when his business partner wanted Arnav as his son-in-law? And adding to it, her daughter acted as if no one exists in the world like her...."

"Yes, I saw her at a birthday party before Arnav got married to her. She didn't even take part in the party and sat at the corner as if she didn't like those celebrations." Garima said sarcastically.

"I just don't want to talk about her. I'm going." Shashi stood.

"Call Arvind Bhai and ask him what he is going to do."

"No need. I will get back if he feels something like that." He left GH.

The trio ate silently.

"What Arnav is going to do further? Did Dad say anything?" NK asked Garima.

Garima nodded NO.

"I don't think Arnav has any idea about his future," Garima said sighing.

NK nodded yes.
