'Khushi'

Arnav woke at mid of the night sweating all around.... Wishpering khushi's name... This has became his routine woking up with nightmare of that hazardous night which changes all the dynamics of the situation...
He was thinking about the happenings when he felt the soft and warm hands on his shoulder.. he didn't have to think twice whose hands it is. He instantly turned and without giving any second time he hugged the person tightly... The person also hugged him tightly... And started to strock his hair kissing his hair in between giving him her support... And then after few minutes she said..

'again the nightmare'

In response he just nodded his head and buried his face in crook of her neck. Inhaling her odour and making him believe and satisfied that yes she is with him.. she hasn't gone anywhere

'never do this to me again.... Please I.. will..'

'sh...sh... I will never do this again arnav ji.. let's sleep'

Yes the person was khushi who was saved that day... She took him on her lap and started to make him sleep while strocking him. Arnav buried his face in her stomach.. and after sometime when he slept she placed him on pillow... And continuously seeing him tapping slowly on his cheeck. When she was confirmed after hearing his snores that he is in deep sleep. She wore a rob upon her stripless nighty and moved towards the glass window and saw the other city London. There is so much silence and peace here. Peace from daily watching the irritating faces who never gave her and him love. The Raizada's who said themselves her and his family but in true sense they never stand by them. There is no mean of them When they can't stand with the family members against others. What she didn't gone through for them but still they actually shows that they are brainless creature who wil never get brain after getting so many lessons. She started to remember the most horrific day of her life.

And with that she saw the person who is now her whole life.. she moved towards him and hugged him tightly from back and kissed his forehead and started to remember what happened when she was lossing the battle of her life.

Flashback

When khushi didn't responded to any of the things arnav cried aloud and it was looking like his mind has stopped working... Till then all the Raizada's came in guest room... Aakash saw the condition of her bhai and bhabhi and then hurridly went towards bed and took the bedsheet from there... Came hurridly towards arshi and wrapped it around khushi.. arnav was just crying silently now hugging her tightly. All the Raizada's were tearing apart seeing the broken arnav but they know it's their fault. And seeing khushi condition they just felt loath on themselves for not taking care of elder daughter in law. They can see the history is repeating and if this time khushi leave arnav, then he won't be able to survive

Akash checked khushi nerves and it was working... He shakes arnav by his shoulder whose was not reacting at all...

' bhai... Bhai bhabhi's Nerves are working don't... Don't loose hope she is alive don't waste time let's take her to hospital'

But nothing was heard by arnav he was is in his own gloominess and world. Seeing his condition akash also got emotional and his eyes misted but he knows this is not the right time to show their weakness and that's when akash thought to take things in his hands now. So he started to pull khushi towards himself from arnav arms.. and that's when Arnav reacts and gave him murderous glance and tighten his hold on her. Akash saw him reacting and again tried..

'bhai please.. she is alive your khushi is alive don't let her go.' and this words like did magic and gave birth of hope to arnav he nodded his head and carried khushi and started to walk taking her in arms. Akash ran from there towards car and started it. They haven't think of anyone... Arnav took her towards back seat and again started to stroke her head lovingly and saying sweet nothing to her like a mad man. Because khushi was not listening at all... Akash saw all this and then wiped his tears seeing his bhai condition. Because right now he is seeing a broken arnav in him.. last incident made him strong and heartless but this incident made him weak and broke his heart. Never he will let his bhai happiness to be broken which lies on khushi so he drive fast as much as he can.
