It took almost an hour to come out of the washroom for Arnav and Khushi. While Khushi wiped her hair, Arnav gave her the hair drier.

Khushi: I won't use a drier. It causes hair fall.

Arnav: It won't happen at one time. Your long hair won't get dried easily. Sleeping with wet hair will lead you to fever. Come on... let me help you.

He turned on the drier and started to dry her hair, keeping it in enough distance.

When they back to the bed, he rubbed a balm on her feet and palms.

Khushi: What are you doing?

Arnav: We had been in the water for a long. You may get cold.

Khushi: What about you?

Arnav: Mine is a steel body. I will stay in the water for one more hour too.

Khushi: Ohh... finished?

Arnav: One more is there.

Khushi: What?

Arnav: your body seems chilled up.

Khushi: So?

Arnav: Let me share a warm hug.

Khushi: I will be happy if it is ONLY a hug.

Arnav: I can't promise.

Khushi: Then keep a distance from me.

Arnav: Are you asking me to keep my distance from you, Khushi?

Khushi: No... I'm asking about this bed... Recliner... mirror...

Arnav: Thank God, I thought you asked me.

He grinned.

Khushi: I'm sleepy.

Arnav: Go to sleep who stops you?

Khushi fell on the bed, covering herself with a quilt. Arnav slipped inside the same quilt to give her the much-needed warmth.

Next day morning

Dinning

Ratna and Arvind looked at Khushi with concern who was sneezing continuously.

Ratna: Khushi beta, are you alright?

Khushi: Ji Amma...aaach...

She sneezed again.

Arvind: Did you have anything cold?

Khushi: No Papa... Aaach.....

She sighed whereas Arnav smirked.

Ratna: Chotte... Don't you know anything?

Arnav: She bathed for a long mom.

Khushi closed her eyes, gritting her teeth.

Ratna: Bathed? When?

Arnav: Last evening...

Ratna: Did you swim the last evening?

Khushi nodded NO.

Arnav: She doesn't know swimming.

Khushi nodded yes.

Ratna: Chotte will teach you.

Arnav: Yeah... it will use for another BET.

He said in a gauzy tone, only Khushi to hear.

Ratna: But why did she take a bath for long, for any particular reason?

Arnav: You were not at home... Simple...

Ratna and Arvind frowned at him whereas Khushi pinched his thigh.
