Ek Duje Ke Vaaste

Part 75

A few days passed. Arnav had given his lawyer Mr. Roy all the instructions regarding the agreement. After five days Mr. Roy called Arnav and said: Mr. Raizada saarey papers ban gaye hai ...aap kal subah Mrs. Raizada aur Ms. Kashyap ke sath aa jaiyega (Mr. Raizada the papers are ready...you come in the morning with Mrs. Raizada and Ms. Kashyap)

Arnav : thanks Mr. Roy, we will be there.

Arnav called khushi after talking to Mr. Roy. Khushi was sleeping at that time. She picked up the phone and said ina sleepy way: hello...

Arnav recognised that voice pretty well. To wake her up he yelled: what the...ab tak so rahi ho tum? (what the..you are still asleep?)

Khushi still with her eyes closed said: kya arnavji...aap hamarey sapne mein bhi aakey humey daant tey hai...(what arnavji...you scold me even in my dreams)

Arnav: whaat?? He said gritting his teeth: khushi maine tumharey sapne mein nehi..sach mein phone kiya hai...he yelled (whaat?? Khushi I have not called you in your dreams but in reality)

What do I do with this girl- he thought 

Khushi woke up with a jerk and looked at the phone and said: yeh to sach mein laad governor hai...devi maaiya raksha karna..(oh this is really him...god help me)

She then said: he...hello...aa.aap... She bit her nails (hello..yo..you)

Arnav:haan..main... ab agar tum sapno ke duniya se bahar aa chuki ho to kuch reality discuss kar le? (yes..me..if you have come out of your dream world can we discuss some reality)

Khushi muttered: laad governor! 

Arnav: finally.!! Ab suno..Mr. Roy ka phone aaya tha..saarey papers ban gaye hai..kal subah humey sign karne hai...kal subah thik dus baje tum Mr. Roy ke office pohoch jana.. (finally!! Listen Mr. Roy had called...all the papers are ready..we need to sign it tomorrow morning... tomorrow at 10'oclock we need to be in Mr. Roy's office)

Khushi: bas ab akhri kuch pal arnavji...fir hum wapas shantivan mein chaley jayenge... aapko pata hai humey sabki kitni yaad aa rahi hai... she complained.(some time more and then we shall be back in shantivan...you know how much I miss everyone)

Yahaan akele humko bilkul achha nehi lag raha hai..aur aap bhi to jab dekho naak fulake what the what the kartey rehetey hai... kitne din ho gaye humne roshni ko nehi dekha... humey shantivan jana hai... she said like a kid who wanted her favourite toy...(I don't like it

here alone..and you always keep on doing what the what the... I have not seen roshni for such a long time)

Arnav smiled and said: I know khushi...but don't worry..bohot jald hum shantivan mein honge... lekin haan meri ek shart hai..(I know khushi...but don't worry..very soon we shall be in shantivan....but I have a condition)

Khushi: shart! Ab kaunsi shart!! hey devi maaiya...yeh laad governor ko shart aur saude ke ilava koi aur bhasha samajh mein nehi aati kya?(condition? Now what?? Oh god doesn't he understand anything besides terms and conditions)

Arnav chuckled and said: shart yeh hai ki mujhe shantivan mein wapas jaakey jaldi hi koi aisa chahiye jo mujhe papa kahey ke bulaye...(the condition is that after we go back to shantivan I need someone very soon who will call me dad)

Khushi blushed deeply and her mouth was wide open as she didn't expect arnav to say this. She said nervously: arnavji..aap..(arnavji..you)

Arnav smiled and said: deal? 

Khushi: haan...matlab ki..woh..matlab...(yes...I mean...actually..)

Arnav said: haan yaa na?(yes or no)
