Khushi worked till late night and when she fell asleep she didn't know, she slept while putting her head on the head rest of the couch in the living area and the laptop open and on.
She woke up with a jerk hearing the calling bell; she rubbed her eyes and then went to open the door thinking it to the maid, for cleaning.
She opened the door but didn't see the person as she is thinking it to be her maid.
Khushi: Aap thoda jaldi kaam kiiye, muhe baahar jaana hai...[you complete your work fastly ...I need to go out] she said while closing the files, picking up the sheets and laptop... as she didn't get the response, she looked back only to be shocked and surprised, to see, The ASR, Aranv Singh Raizada, leaning on the door and hearing her instructions with a smirk.
Khushi: what the! What are you doing here? She said putting her laptop back on the table.
Arnav: Manners says, to welcome the person who visits them.
Khushi hit her head: sorry, please come in.
Arnav: Last night, I said I'll pick you up at 9, remember?
Khushi: ha, but it's at 9, why did you come early? She said while collecting all the stuff she left incomplete.
Arnav: and do you think it's early morning? He said showing his wrist watch, which showed 9:20.
Khushi: oh god! Sorry, it got late last night so couldn't wake up. Just give me 30min, I'll freshen up.
She turned to go but went to kitchen and made a cup of coffee for him and served him.
She went in her room and came back in exactly 30min, all ready... but her hair is still wet.
She brought a bag and stuffed it with laptop, few papers and 5or 6 CD‟s.
Khushi: sorry for making you wait. Shall we leave?
Arnav: yes, but are you sure that you are ready to go?
Khushi: of course yes, I'm ready.
Arnav looking here and there not knowing what to say and how to: Khushi, you forgot to wear your leggings.
Khushi: what? She looked down and he is right, she forgot to where her leggings but thanks to her mid thigh length top which made her save from most embarrassing moment.
In a second she closed her room door and Arnav turned towards that direction and smiled a bit.
Once she done, looked at her image in the mirror and checking thoroughly that she didn‟t forget anything, and then came out of the room, picked up her bag and stood straight waiting for his attention, he is on call. She kept the coffee in the kitchen and came back, but then he is done with the call and switched off the TV.
Arnav: shall we move?
Khushi: yes.
They came out and Khushi locked the door, came down and within few seconds, both left the premises of her Apartment.
Arnav is completely busy with the calls all the way from her apartment to the hotel; Khushi didn't want to bore herself so she took her mobile and plug-in the earphones and started listening to the music looking outside.
He stopped in the car at the parking entrance as wallet parking is available also, Khushi has come out of it so there should be the special treatment.
They came to the entrance as the lift is up and Khushi doesn't want to wait down till it get down, so they came to the entrance and stepped in the hotel, while going in Arnav looked around to see if her bodyguards are there? He found a SUV with 4 men, in a dress code, discuss something and dispersed in different directions; one of them is coming towards them.
Arnav smiled turned back only to see Khushi talking with her event manager and a guy, whose face is not visible to him. He went to them.
Khushi: Have you find a new DJ? I have got few CD's to add in his queue.
NK: well, I'm here for that.
Khushi: you?
NK: yes, any doubt?
Khushi: I never knew you have passion for Music too.
NK: spend some time with me then you will get you know... he said like flirting. Khushi smiled at him and passed him the CDs.
NK: thanks, will check out and let you hear the sample in the evening, if its fine, else you can check in the afternoon once so that I can go ahead.
Khushi: fine, I'll check it in the afternoon, thank you so much NK.
NK: frankly, anything for my baby... he said while putting his hand over the event manager's shoulder.
Khushi frowned at him, NK: oh! I didn't introduce you. She is my bua... my sweet heart.
Khushi: what? She is too Surprised, even Arnav who joined them then.
NK: Hey ASR, hello man! How are you doing?
Arnav: NK, I'm fine, thanks, how are you doing and how come you are here?
EM: He is the new DJ.
Arnav: is it?
Khushi: yes, so NK you get start, will see in soon.
Khushi went to the hall to check the décor and then went to the lawn to see the arrangement there, even if it rains, they are spreading the sheets over the decoration to seclude it from the getting wet or spoil the interior.
She is very satisfied with the arrangements and gave a big hug to EM.
Khushi: Thank you so much for making this possible, it is exactly the way I wanted.
EM: save your thanks till tomorrow, once this event is done then you can thank you whole heartedly.
Khushi: I'll surely do that.
She got a call from the dance team; continue the practice for the day.
Arnav and Khushi both reached the hall and what they saw made them to raise their eye brows and eyes wide.
Anjali and Shyam dancing Salsa, so romantically, the song got over but they didn't move, looking into each other.
Khushi: Awww! So cute... she said looking at them. Arnav looked at her and went to the couple to get them back to the reality.
Arnav pushed Shyam's hand from Anjali's waist and that is when they both realized that the song stopped.
Arnav: what's going on?
Shyam: Arnav, when did you come?
Arnav: when you both are lost in each other even after the song got finish a long back...
Khushi: don't say that, it's not a long, just a while but you two looked great together while dancing... too perfect like a fairytale...
Arnav: fairytale is not a reality so get that thing out of your mind...
Khushi: it's my mind my wish, what's your problem with that? Did I ask you to be my prince? No right?
Arnav: Khushi, fairytale is not a reality... it just fits in the kid's book and some romantic novel's and movies but no reality in it...
Khushi: who said love story is a fairy tale, it is so real, you saw the example a while back, and I'll prove you wrong, I'll make my love of life a fairy tale... then you will agree... she said and left the hall...
Arnav: what the!! What was that?
Shyam: nothing bro, she just didn't know that you are going to be her prince so she said all that, and if you think it in a positive way, she just said that she wants her love of life to be like a fairytale, so be ready to be her prince in real...
Anjali: I can't guarantee on the prince thing but surely can say, rather name him as beast... she shared her thoughts knowing her brother...
Shyam: but isn't it that all the beautiful girls fall for a bad guys, rather say, a beast...?
Anjali showed him her tongue and turned other said as he made fun of her and also girls but that's true, she thought and smiled at her brother.
Arnav: you are crazy...
After some time,
She came back to her normal mode and done with her practice also did the final rehearsal with Shyam and Anjali, who wanted to be part of her surprise...
Shyam and Arnav came out to breathe the fresh air.
Arnav: when are you leaving? Uncle said that the clients are not agreeing on the terms and breaking the conditions.
Shyam: I'm leaving on Sunday night... it's not a big deal to handle them, I have no interest in them but it's papa, who asked me to go through this and handle the situation.
Arnav: hmm, DI ko bataya?
Shyam: not yet, but I think she might have guessed by now that I'll be going out of country so spending time with her, than office.
Arnav: all the best.
Meantime,
Khushi: you are so lucky to have Shyam in your life, he is sooooooo good...
Anjali smiled at her: I know,
Khushi: he loves you a lot,
Anjali sighed: if you are saying this based on the love he is showering on me these days is, he will be leaving on a business trip soon, so he is pampering me...
Khushi: how can you say that?
Anjali: I have dated him for 2 years and now engaged what more you need, to understand your man's mind and actions.
Khushi: hmm... point... but still, I love the way you both care for each other.
Anjali: do you have a boy friend?
Khushi: never...
Anjali: why?
Khushi: I'm not interested in this boyfriend and girl friend thing... I so mentally prepared for an arranged marriage... my parents choice... I know they do the best for me...
Anjali: that's so sweet, but what will you do if you fall in love with someone?
Khushi was about to deny but Arnav's image came in, then Aman's gyan... calling her feelings as Love.
Khushi: I don't know,
Anjali: what you don't know?
Khushi: I never thought about it? I was clear in my decision but can't stop the destiny, if I fall in love and if it's true then I'll be happy because my parents too will be happy if I became a capable person in finding true love...
Anjali: Aww... that's the sweetest thing I heard...
Khushi smiled at her and then both left to shopping only to be joined by the boys, but not before checking with NK and she is highly impressed with his work.

Anjali: what do you want to try?
Khushi: Saree.
Anjali: okay, any requirements?
Khushi: I don't know but mom always wants to see me in a saree but I never got time and when I got time, I might not willing to do... some or the other things happen.
Anjali: hmm... so... any specific color in mind to try on?
Khushi: Red, maroon, Green, Royal blue, any of them but I don't want to be here for more time. I need to rush, so shall we make the selection quick?
