Arnav’s POV
Khushi is so strong than any other woman I have met so far. Just today morning she got to know about Shashi Gupta not being her real father and though she broke down and let me soothe her, it was only for a short period. I know she is broken from inside and I want to be the one to stand by her because I know what it means to feel that in this whole world there is no one who can give you the comfort you need the most during such crises. But I also know that I will be the last person she will ever ask for that shoulder to lean on. The coffee is great and I can’t take my eyes as Khushi continues to speak to Maa and Shyam.
“When are you bringing Anjali to meet us?” Maa asks Shyam who laughs.
“You think she will wait for a minute after reaching New York to see you? I doubt she would come here straight instead of coming to me home.”
Maa smiles whereas Khushi tenses and her eyes meet mine briefly. I know she doesn't get any good vibes from Di either but she doesn't have to be concerned about her.
“That’s the pull which every daughter feels for her family,” Maa replies.
“Totally agree. Though she is my wife, she is full time thinking about you and Arnav.” Shyam adds.
“Khushi,” Maa’s voice drags her attention back to them. “I never asked you about your parents. Where are they? In India?”
Khushi swallows hard as tears roll down her cheeks. Maa is confused and I am about to make some excuse or tell a lie so to save Khushi from this turmoil but before I can do that, she replies.
“I am an orphan, Maa. I have no one to be called as my family..”
I know on what context Khushi said this. Since Shashi Gupta is not her real father and he doesn't even care for her, she knows she has no one left to be called as her family. But here’s where she is wrong. She’s an integral part of my life now and I would never let that change.
Maa cups her face and kisses her forehead.
“Never say again, Arnav and his family is yours. We are all yours, Khushi. We all will make sure you would never feel their absence again in your life. I promise.”
Khushi bites her lower lip, curbing her sobs before giving Maa a tight hug. I clench my fists. I want to take her too in my arms. Right now… Can I?
Note: I will post this full update tomorrow.

Arnav want to support Khushi as she is broken but also knows Khushi won't ask for his support. He admires Khushi. Khushi is completely broken. Nice that Arnav has started considering Khushi as his family. Felt Khushi 's pain when she told she is an orphan. Arnav understand her pain too and want to console her but don't know how Khushi will react. Khushi is terribly hurt by the truth of her life and by the person she loves. Still want Arnav to talk to Khushi though she might not like it. Very emotional Precap. Adi
ReplyDeleteIf she let you then you can
ReplyDeleteArnav is the last person Khushi would take support from and she is right in her place.. Arnav is also a part of her pain and the same person who once made her feel abandoned and useless I don't think he deserves her attention or the shoulder she would lean on so soon

ReplyDeleteOnly if Maa knew how Arnav and his family is can never be khushis.. not so soon atleast except maa that also till she remembers who Khushi actually is..
ReplyDeleteI feel so sad for Khushi she has no one of her own if we see it from her point of view.. tho Arnav is now wanting to get things back on track he doesn't deserve another chance so early.
Khushi should continue keeping distance from Arnav. And try mingling with her friends more like Pam and Nk.. Hoping to see NK - Arnav face off. Let's see what's Arnavs reaction to NK is despite Khushi saying she wouldn't leave him for another man, I'm sure Arnav still will be possessive. Can't wait to see that part
