42 First Night

"I don't think you can do that because I don't think Arvind will be on our side this time"

"What did he do previously being our side? Nothing... we got nothing through him. I just entered RM through him. That's all. He is the most useless man I have ever met. Even though he is on our side he won't open his mouth before Arnav. So, we don't need him"

"But, be careful. Arnav is married now. He never minded insulting us even before his marriage. Think and act"

"Mmm"

Ajay Singh who followed them found out about their residence and got back to his place.

RM

Anjali and Shyam entered in but Ratna stopped Arnav and Khushi.

"You have to get inside only after finishing the Grahapravesh ritual," she said.

"Mom... have not you finished your rituals yet?" he asked annoyingly.

"I will stop it here itself if you don't like to perform any ritual further," Ratna said.

"Please do it if you can..."

"Ok, you go to your room and Khushi will be in the guestroom as usual"

"Whaaaat?" Arnav shocked.

"Then? Sending her to your room is also a ritual, Chotte. If you are not interested in performing any ritual, I won't irritate you by making you do them"

"What do you want me to do now?"

"See, how he is responding now" Ratna laughed.

Anjali and Shyam chuckled whereas Khushi controlled her smile, bowing down.

"Chotte, you won't ignore Grahpravesh ritual if you got to know our style" Anjali laughed.

"What's that, Di?"

"Groom should carry his Bride inside the house," she said laughingly.

"Really?" He asked looking at Khushi teasingly.

"I might also have taken birth in the Raizada clan" Shyam sighed making Anjali blush.

"Why are you waiting for? Pick my Bahu and walk to your room" Ratna said.

Arnav picked Khushi in his arms while uttering,

"The man who created this ritual should be a great man" he winked at Khushi who bowed down and the other three laughed.

Arnav walked to his room picking Khushi in his arms. He kept her on the decorated bed. Khushi sat silently. Arnav nagged her shoulder by his. Khushi was rotating her bangles which were in her hands not looking at him.

"It seems someone is angry with me?" he asked controlling his laughter.

Khushi looked at him pouting.

"Khushi, I never expect you want me to be disabled..." he said, making a face.

Khushi dropped her jaw.

"Then what? You should be happy for me not being disabled instead, you are angry with me for hiding the truth"

"Do you know how worried I was thinking that I'm the reason for your state?"

"You are not wrong though... you were the reason for my state. To get a YES from you only I played a disabled role"

Khushi sighed.

"Go, Arnavji... you have no idea how much I cried for you"

"I too cried for you. Do you know that?"

Khushi looked at him blinking her eyes.

"Why?"

"Because you were not understanding my liking for you..."

"Is this how you make me understand your feelings?"

"This is one kind..."

Sulking her face, she pouted.

"It seems I should do something to get you normal..."

He thought for a while.

"Yeah... how do I forget that?"

Khushi looked at him.

"Didn't I tell you what I will do if you get angry with me?"

Khushi stood up from the bed and moved back getting horrified. In no time, she tried to run, but Arnav pulled her towards him and hugged her from behind.

"What do big anger?" He kissed her cheek from behind, tightening the hug.

"Arnavji, please leave me"

"Whaaaat? Did I play the toughest drama role to leave you? No way"

"Arnavji, this hip chain is hurting me" she hissed.

Arnav detached his hand and turned her to face him. sitting on the bed, he removed her hip chain. Yes, it left a red mark on her waist.

"Is it aching?"

"slightly" she smiled.

"I'm sorry..."

Cutting him,

"That's ok, Arnavji"

He caressed the red patch and Khushi moved a step back getting embarrassed. Arnav looked at her and his hand was still in the air. He could see her nervousness.

"What do you want me to do now, Khushi?" Arnav asked.

Khushi looked at him not knowing what to answer.

"Shall we cancel our first night?"

Khushi gulped down.

"Ok... go and get changed"

Khushi nodded ok and went to the washroom with her casuals. Within a few minutes, she came out of the washroom. Arnav smiled at her, laying on the bed. Khushi also smiled at him while keeping her lehenga and jewels in the bag. she sat on the bed.

"Shall I switch the lights off?" She asked.

"Yeah...sure"

Switching the night light on, she switched off the other lights. When she laid down on the other side, Arnav pulled her close to him and locked her underneath him by putting his leg on her thighs, making her bewildered.

"I had been waiting for you to change your dress because I don't want your jewels to hurt you," he said whispering.

He saw her gulping down in the dim light.

"You look hot in the dim light you know" came from him.

Khushi felt her stomach churn.

"Are you scared?" he asked.

Khushi blinked her eyes slowly.

"It's common to feel scared... after all, this is our first night. You will get used to it in two or three days"

In JUST two or three days? Khushi could not understand whether he was making her relaxed or making her more scared. But, she was sure about something that Arnav was not seeming to back off.
