Khushi's POV
“Things don’t go well when the Past meets the future. I hope you realize this and if you do, please ask your friend Naina never to disconnect my call again, especially when I am so desperate to speak to my husband” I rebuke.
After a long silence between us, I hear him gasp. “You were desperate for me?”
“I was” I don’t lie but I don’t let him enjoy that truth either. “I was desperate to speak to you. Who is coming to Devki Estate tomorrow and why? You left without mentioning that to me”
There is another long silence between us.
“Devki Estate is as much mine as its yours” he replies. “Did I ever ask you who you bring there and why?”
“No you don’t but..”
I know my Aunt is desperate to learn more and find some clues to our marriage.
“So, how did you and Advay exactly meet?” Aunty asks. “I mean, you both are two different worlds altogether. How did you even fall in love?”
I have to answer this. Jiya is about to frame something but I hold her hand over the table, pressing it gently.
“Allow me to share our story sweetheart”
Jiya’s brows arch in surprise. There is something in her eyes which tells she hadn’t expected me to call her by such romantic nicknames. But this is what pretense means. I turn to my Uncle and Aunt who are desperate to know our love story.
“Six months back my car broke down in front of Soul Café and while my driver was fixing it, I decided to grab a cup of Coffee. Jiya was in there and I assumed her to be the Server. That’s how our communication began and we spent the next one hour talking”
Jiya watches me amused. This story can kick-off, I know.
“How romantic” Aryan squeals. “So, does that mean every evening from that day your car broke down at the same place?”
I smile with a nod.
“Kind of”
“He always ordered the same Café” Jiya added. “And he never walked out until he saw me”
Good!! This is going great. I can see my Uncle almost convinced.
“That means you liked each other instantly? First sight love?” Aryan digs for more.
“For him it was first sight love, not me” Jiya answers.
What the hell!! She is making me the goose here?
“Excuse me?” I snap turning to Jiya who has all my attention now. She is making me the scapegoat?
“Of course,” she smiles. “Don’t you remember, how you always made stories of your car puncture and client meeting in my Café? You came to me.. I didn’t”
My jaw clenches hard. I can debate over this fake story until I am in the winning side, not she.
“Why did you flaunt yourself all the time around my table then? You owned the Café; you could have locked up in the Kitchen or at the backdoor”
She frowns.
“I had to look after other customers too. I didn’t specifically loiter around you”
Our bickering brings a smile on Daadu’s face which soon turns into a laughter.
“God, you two really look married now. A marriage without illogical arguments and silly fights is not a real marriage” he states.
Me and Jiya both shut up realizing we went too far in faking the story and upon that arguing who fell first for the other.
“Who proposed first?” My aunt’s questions are unstoppable.
“He”
“She”
We both point at each other, the same time. Our contradictory replies raise my Aunt’s suspicion

“Devki Estate is as much mine as its yours” he replies. “Did I ever ask you who you bring there and why?”
“No you don’t but..”
“That’s it then. I think you got your reply, Pet” he doesn’t let me argue. “Is there anything else you wish to speak to your husband apart from Devki estate?”
Now he is pissing me off.
“Nope” I snap. “If you don’t want to speak about Devki Estate matters to me, I don’t want to speak anything to you either”
“Perfect” he sighs. “Saves my time. Got to go Pet. Bye”
And that’s it. The call disconnects. I look blankly at my cellphone before dropping it back on the desk. I had not expected Arnav to behave so cold. He is sending people tomorrow to Devki Estate, I am unaware why but that’s fine. I will handle this situation myself. If he thinks I will never know what he is plotting at my back, he is wrong. I am the one who has saved this Estate and worked for its benefit all these years. I won’t let it all go waste.
