"If you have doubt, pinch yourself"

"I'm coming" Shyam disconnected the call and headed towards RM.

Anjali smiled looking at her phone.

On the other side, Arnav was looking at Khushi who was fiddling with her shawl.

"Khushi, do you want me to give you a topic to make you speak?"

"Why won't you talk to me instead of me?" she pouted.

"Yeah, that's a good idea but I don't think you will like my talks"

"No problem Arnavji, I will listen to you even though you talk about economics and the share market," she said casually.

Arnav frowned.

"Whaaaat? Economics and Share market?" he laughed.

Khushi looked at him bewildered. What did she say that he was laughing like this?

"I think, you concluded me as a boring guy... am I right?"

Khushi smiled awkwardly.

"I just am thinking to talk to you about our future" he held his hands.

Khushi blushed with a smile.

"How many children do you want Khushi?"

Khushi widened her eyes and looked at him jerking.

"What? Why are you looking at me like this? Did I ask anything wrong?" he read her face.

Khushi became thoughtful. How did he look so confident when he had only a twenty percentage of chance getting cured?

"I'm happy as you are looking confident about your treatment because confident cures half of the problems"

"Treatment? What are you talking about Khushi?"

"Your treatment... are not you going to the US for the treatment?"

"Oh... you are talking about it?"

"Hann..."

"Yeah... I have confidence" He smirked.

"This is why I said you are a lion" she smiled cutely.

"You will get to know about my confidence CLEARLY after our marriage"

"Will Shyam Bhai come today?"

"Yeah... Di would have called him as of now. He will be on the way"

"It seems Shyam Bhai loves Di very much"

"Di also loves him very much"

"Did she tell you?"

"she doesn't need to say. I know that... she faced the worst phase in her life. she should be happy from here on" Arnav said delightfully.

"Arnavji, her husband, I mean the man fell down on the stage itself. You brought her away from the wedding venue. How did Deeraj die and Di become a widow?"

"Don't you know that?"

Khushi nodded no.

"He is a Drunkard. I stopped the marriage and brought Di home. As usual, Rajeev uncle brought Deeraj's parents to our home to console Mom and Dad. I was not at home at that time. They promised my parents that they will send him to an addiction center and will perform the wedding again. Dad readily agreed"

"Then?"

"Drunkard is a drunkard. Dheeraj thought to have a party with his friends before going to the Addiction center. After enjoying the party, he came back and met with an accident. He was SPOT OUT"

"Hey, Devi Maiya..."

"Yeah... his chapter got over"

They saw Shyam entering his room with a bright smile.

"Hi, Shyam"

"How are you Arnav?"

"Not so good... this girl is not at all talking to me," he said sadly.

Khushi pouted at him.

"Don't feel bad Arnav. She would be like this ONLY now. After your marriage, she won't even be quiet for a while"

Khushi dropped her jaw.

"Is it Khushi?" Arnav asked teasingly.

"Haan... you will run away from me not want to hear my blabbers," Khushi said and stood from the bed.

Arnav pulled her and made her sit again.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going because you got Shyam Bhai to talk," she said.

"wait..."

Looking at Shyam,

"Shyam, call Di and Mom"

"Anju saw me coming. She will bring aunty I suppose"

"Mmm"

As Shyam said, Ratna and Anjali came to Arnav's room. Khushi rushed to Ratna and stood next to her.

"Take your seat, Shyam," Arnav said.

Pulling a chair, Shyam sat in front of Arnav.

"I think you would like to marry Di"

"Why doubt? Yes... I want to marry Anju from the beginning."

"But, you are going to France in ten days...?"

Shyam looked at Anjali.

"What do you want me to do, Arnav?"

"I'm going to marry Khushi. Our wedding has been fixed for next week. What about you? Are you ready to marry Di?"

"Of course, yes... just get us married simply. I will take Anju with me to France"

"Then start preparations..."

"Gladly"

"Invite our fathers to the wedding," Arnav said.

Ratna and Anjali looked at him shockingly.

"But, Chotte..." Anjali tried to say something,

"Di... their children's wedding... let them come"

Shyam and Anjali looked at Ratna.

"Mom, do you have any problem?" Arnav asked.

Ratna was silent.

"I think Mom is scared... she will melt if she sees her husband in front of her, am I right, Mom?" Arnav teased.

Ratna glared at him.

"Let him come... I will show him who I am" Ratna said.

"That's the spirit" Arnav smiled whereas Anjali and Khushi looked at him with confusion.

"Chotte, are not you angry with them?" Anjali asked.

"Of course, I'm..."

"Then why do you want them to come to our marriage?"

"That's why I want them to come to our marriage" he smiled.

"What are you saying?"

"Relax, Di... not everything can be said openly. Am I right Shyam... correction... Jeejaji?"

Shyam smiled at him and Arnav smirked.
