Khushi’s POV
Arnav left to India. Why am I not shocked? I know he would do something like this. After that argument we had post our forced dinner date, I had that feeling I would never see him again. Tears spring in my eyes which Maa wipes away. I can’t believe Maa is still on my side. At least I didn’t expect her to be normal towards me after recalling I am the same woman who her son loved in the past.. six years ago.
“It’s okay, Khushi,” Maa smiles weakly. “Your future goals are very clear this time and you have told it time and again that you never loved Arnav. So, he going back to India now is the best for both of you.”
I shake my head in disagreement. “If it is the best decision Maa, why does it hurt so much still? I don’t know what I feel for him, Maa. I am so clear about everything now. What I want, what I don’t want but why the hell can’t I figure it out what I feel for Arnav? Why is my heart always in a fix when it comes to him? Attraction between us was always there, I will never disagree to that. I lied to him six years ago that I loved him and it broke his heart. Then he took his revenge from me by marrying me forcibly, our relationship took a worse turn again. But soon the attraction fueled and led us to spend a night together. The next morning he lied to Anjali that it didn’t meant anything to me when I was ready to think of a future with him. It broke my heart. All of this led me here to the USA and now I am standing on my own feet, and he is coming back to me telling me that he was wrong to drag me into this revenge thing and now wants to give this marriage a chance, leaving me confused why should I give him a chance now? Our relationship has become like a remote control, Maa where Arnav and I keep toggling with the start/pause and end buttons as and when we want to. When I want him to go away, he comes back. When he wants to me to stay, I go away. Why the hell can’t we both want the same thing at the same time?” I shout before hiding my face in between my palms to stop my tears.
Note: As suggested by a few readers in my last post, I will not begin the new fiction "The WAIT" even after I end "Bride of Sheesh Mahal - Season 3."
I will continue posting "Rabba Ishq Naa Hove - Season 3" and only after that completes too, I will begin with "The Wait"
So only 1 FF will remain ongoing from now on.
good for Arnav
ReplyDeleteExactly. Coz he is so fragile that he can't bear what he gave others. He is a coward so he should run far away.
Deletethen what about KHushi? he tried, khushi is the one cowerd, ... blah blah.
DeleteWhatever helps you sleeps at night<3
DeleteThings are getting complicated for Arshi. Khushi loves Arnav though he has hurt her. Arnav too accepted his fault. Khushi please give Arnav a chance. Both of them are in pain but both love each other. Please Khushi give Arnav a chance and let him rectify his mistakes.
ReplyDeleteHe left!!!! Just like that!!!! Such little tolerance level!!!! Such low determination!!!!! A little fright and he run back because he was unable to handle his pain anymore in such a short time than what about the pain he gave to khushi for months!!! When its so unbearably painful for him get a bit of harshness from his wife than How can he expect her to let go of her pain and just think about him.... Very disappointed.... What happen to the things he said about doing everything in the world and never leaving again without winning khushi back at any cost this time. Even khushi is a bit disappointing here. She seems to built strong will for taking stability decisions regarding her professional life why can't she do it regarding her personal life!!! She is turning out to be a changed person, changed for good, it should include her emotional compatibilities too.
ReplyDeleteExactly i agree.. i wasn't expecting Arnav to leave like this especially when he was being so determined to win Khushi back.. it's just been a week to their settlement and he runs away. If his tolerance is just this much then i guess he deserves to stay away from khushi.
DeleteI wasn't expecting a separation track at this point in this story to be honest. The story was finally getting on track and this separation just made it complicated. Hope this story takes a good shape here onwards. Still wasn't expecting separation track.. i thought after the previous update they might not talk to each other for a while or something but i don't wasnt expecting Arnav to give up so soon and run to India.
Very immature of him
Thankyou so much to continue with one story at a time for the updates.
ReplyDeleteNo dear she didn't refuse him to do nothing for her neither said it in words. Infact they had a consensual agreement to let arnav show his redemption, woo his wife and being cordial to each other. It was khushi herself who had given him a month to do what he wants to do. And about the dinner thing, its not just khushi, arnav had done the same thing to her in past too. So we can't hold it just against khushi, arnav was getting what he once gave it to her. The difference was arnav did it with alot of harshness, rudeness, bitterness and in hate where as khushi did it in her hesitation and resistance towards him. Also about the khushi saying him about giving him a chance, this was the whole point. It was what arnav had to do, it was for what he had came, to get another chance from her, he had to woo her for that only. Even after all this it can't be ignored that khushi even consider giving arnav a opportunity to pursue her and his heart wishes. But he ran away, like always.
ReplyDeleteP. S. No offense dear to you dear❤
So glad that u’ll be starting new story only after finishing this. Those who wants to leave the blog after rabba ve can happily do it. I guess it’s a win win for all.
ReplyDeleteIt's good , Arnav went back. I'm reading your ff since India forums days . & I feel this is the first one where I feel Arnav & Khushi are no where compatible. They are not made for each other
ReplyDeleteArnav ran away as always. What else can we expect from him. 😏😏
ReplyDeleteHe should have kept trying atleast till the end of month then if Khushi still din't want him he could go back.. Khushi took all his harshness for months when they got married and still stood there before finally leaving.. whereas he ran at the first opportunity he got and then he says he loves her. Im not liking this Arnav i think he doesn't deserve Khushi.. I'm not saying he should force her or something but atleast try your level best to pursue your wife after the damage you've done for months you can't expect it to be sorted in a week.
Also Khushi who is opening up all this to Maa should have said all this to Arnav.. she never spoke anything of this sort to him and just kept disagreeing that she doesn't love him and now she's crying for what? She shouldn't have told him that she once was thinking to give them a chance before he lied to Anjali the next morning. That would have still given Arnav hope that she had feelings for him atleast.. but she kept acting like she never loved him not even during their consummation
Exactly. Like khushi said their presence in each others has become a remote control action. And it is control by Arnav. Whenever he wants he come in Khushi's live or brings her in his life, and whenever he want made khushi leave his life or himself leaves hers life. No sense of persistent or continuity.

ReplyDeleteI'm still not understanding what's wrong with this story characters. Dear Madhu I'm glad you'll be continuing one ff at a time considering your schedule but my kind request please even if it's one story at a time please shape this story better.. first when this story started it was good then the past revealings made it confusing and it went off track then the sudden consummation and separation was a twist but when they finally United the story started getting back on track and Now AGAIN the separation which i think wasn't needed at this point of the story.
ReplyDeleteIm sure you know better as aan author but my kind request if you're just continuing one ff at a time please please shape this ff well.. i really liked this ff until the last chapter and was expecting some more face to face talks and confrontations and fights before their union but this separation track has left a bitter taste in my mouth.
Idk what's next but hope the story shapes well instead of separator and union separation and union track everytime.. cause honestly i think the two separations that happened before were enough
In my defense I’m not holding it against khushi. I was hell angry on Arnav for marrying her n all the revenge.
ReplyDelete“I don’t want any tit-for-tat. I just don’t want you around me or in my life again. Is it so hard to understand?”
I see hurt in his eyes as if he hadn’t expected me to be so clear on what I wanted from him and us.
“You don’t want me around you?” he painfully asks.
“No.”
Arnav sighs audibly at my firm declaration.
“One month and I promise I’ll be gone from here. Please bear me until that.”
One month? What .. what is that supposed to mean? Will he really fly back to India after one month letting me continue my career here? Without his interruption? Before I can analyze all this, the servant walks in with two coffees. One for each one of us. Arnav picks his after the servant serves me first”
This is what khushi said. I had to go back because I wasn’t sure how to prove my point. Arnav asked for it n he gave himself the approval.
“This man is surely manipulating me into giving in to his ways so that I forgive him and continue the rest of my life being his wife, but that’s never going to happen.”
“You really meant it when you said you want me to use you the way I want?” she asks.
“Yes,” I nod.
“Sad that you think this will help me clear my thoughts about you or lessen the pain you gave me. I am not that woman anymore who would like to do that with any man, Arnav. Let alone the one whom I don’t even want in my life anymore.”
I swallow painfully. Every time she has claimed me to f*ck off from her life, it reminds me she doesn't love me… probably, never will.
“But,” Khushi’s voice breaks my thoughts and forces me to pay attention to her again. “But if that’s what makes you feel less burdened before you walk away from me, if that’s what you think will help you redeem for all the pain you gave me, then I am up for it.”
She is? I don’t know why but even getting back hatred from her is a good sign. It’s better than her ignorance.
“I’m ready to bear you for one month around me, as my husband, only for namesake. You want to redeem, do whatever you think you should, to lessen your sins before you leave. I don’t care. But don’t expect me to treat you as a servant, or throw hurling words at you in return. I won’t do any of that because that’s below my dignity now to treat even my enemy in that manner.”
I am so proud of her thoughts that she wont hurt me back even if I had done it to her.
“But..” Khushi interrupts. “We will never share the same room or the same bed in this month. That can’t change, Arnav.”
I nod in understanding.
“Can I still touch you in this one month?” I murmur. It’s more of a request though. “I don’t mean doing anything that you are not comfortable with.. Maybe just.. holding you if you break down, a plain handshake when you come home winning some modelling contract.. feed you when you are sick…those kind of friendly touch..”
Khushi’s brows twitch high.
“We can never be friends, Arnav.”
“Right…” I exhale disappointedly.
“But if such generic touches accidentally happen, then I won’t shout back at you, I can assure you that.” she adds, giving me some relief.
This is what khushi said. So I don’t find that she has given him a chance for their relationship. It’s to heal his guilt.
I’m not against khushi. She has her right to deny Arnav. I’m saying that it’s okay if they want to divorce!
My whole point is khushi wasn’t going to accept him as her husband even if he proved himself for her!
ReplyDeleteHe is broken and it was good for him to go back.
ReplyDeleteam glad that you decided to focus on one story at a time, it's for the best
ReplyDeletemaybe you will do better with this one, coz in the last few update it was the same nothing new it's like the story got stuck at one point
DeleteYour strories have become very boring. I read precap and felt nothing. This has been happening since long. I think you put no mind to what you write but only try to drag things to fill a page or two for updating. I am glad you will be doing one ff cuz i really want RINH3 to end and leave.
ReplyDeleteKhushi says the attraction was always there what a joke. She has problem in everything Arnav does him sticking to her or him leaving her... the same readers who were bashing Arnav as Khushi deserves better are now bashing him as coward for giving Khushi her space. They are equally confused as Khushi looks like lol. It's a ff so they are bound to be together chhahe forced feelings hi kyon na ho.. It's not possible to trust a girl or boy who once had played with my emotions... In real life these particular Arnav Khushi are not compatible but it's a fiction so they will be together forever
ReplyDeleteNot good arnav not good he shouldn't have runaway his this act is giving a meaning that his love wasn't worth a fight.
ReplyDeleteKhushi wants only money, when Arnav was poor she used him and discarded like a tissue...she thought Arnav would keep begging her forever and she would use him as slave but when Arnav Left how can she let go such a rich good looking guy, so playing the sympathy card of having the attraction forever. She would have behaved with Arnav the same way she behaved during teenage had he not become a rich person. She has no gratitude for lavanya too who helped her who actually was ASR's friend. During teenage age she wanted to experience the pleasure as her aged girls and in adult hood she was going to marry a nri just for money. If Arnav played with emotions n marriage Khushi too was not less than him infact she is more.
ReplyDeleteBash Arnav you will get more likes for the comment 🤣 point Khushi flaws you get more dislikes for the comment 😡 playing the victim card
ReplyDeleteHere khushi is the one who confused because in past also she said she doesn't loved him but acted as one she has all the rights to ignore him,hurt him and used him for her teenage pleasure and her father ruined him and his family due to she told her father that she didn't love Arnav infront of him hmmm but Arnav he did the mistakes with khushi but he asked his forgiveness from khushi and repenting for his deeds but khushi yet didn't asked his forgiveness for used him and kept him in the dark like she loved him but rejected it infront of her father now also Arnav understand his feelings towards khushi and he is stubborn in nature so he doesn't wants to hurt khushi so went to India because she was the one wanted the seperation from him and the marriage so now he gave her that but she is hurt by his departure to India she is the deciding factor here in the past and now also that she wants arnav or not in her life so pls some readers don't put all the blame in to arnav she also did the mistake and now also didn't want to give Arnav a second chance pls update sooooooooon dear
ReplyDeleteMadhu you did not give us a clear picture what happened to Arnav, why he changed drastically and how he became rich within 6 years after Khushi used and ditched him. The story is going in circles. Like Khushi who is clueless what happened in those 6 years even I am left confused. Even though Khushi was restricted and caged by her ex-father the girl had a safe and secure life with all the luxuries. Shashi was a horrible person but he provided her with all the luxuries. But Arnav was ditched by Khushi, thrown out of his job, his family and his life was threatened. Please let us know what happened in those 6 years.
ReplyDeleteI am not willing to take sides. Both of them are wrong in their own ways. Just because Khushi has become matured and independent and Arnav asking forgiveness for his mistakes will not lessen the mistakes they had done against each other. Both do not understand the meaning of love.
Why does the arnav fans's comments seems similar ;)>
ReplyDeleteThe basis of love is not just attraction, but respect, trust, commitment towards each other, great understanding, loyalty, the inert feeling to see your partner happy. Honestly, till now I find neither Khushi nor Arnav (who claims to love) showcasing these. It has always been 'I' not 'Us' till now
ReplyDeleteThis ff is by far the most confusing ff from the history of Madhus fictions. I don't think any of her fictions have been like this ever.
ReplyDeleteNo offense but i think because of tight schedule Madhu can't pay much attention to this ff and hence the story is lacking a strong plot and directions. It's just moving round round instead of going ahead.
I agree bcoz this story has so many points that are been missed. Like instead of separation Arshi could sort khushis past issue like they had a strong context of her father not being her real father and also her property and her mother. That way Arshi could come close. But this story is just moving in one direction of Arnav being mean to Khushi. I know that's also a point but that's not the only point. There are more things that have been forgotten by the writer i guess.
DeleteArnav shouldn't have gone back.... Atleast not so soon....
ReplyDeleteJust gonna give 2 examples from rest of all madhu's ffs so far.
ReplyDeleteTere bin: Khushi did the same of leading Arnav on, and so much that he proposed her infront of the whole college and she rejected him infront of that same crowd. Arnav suffered for 7 years and changed his whole personality.
My New Boss 3: In the last phase of the story, Arnav declared in front of the rivals that he was acting, using and never was in loved with Khushi. He very heartlessly and cruelly not just belittled their love, relationship but also Khushi. The fact that it was all his plan was another thing which came out at the last but the damage was done.
In both the cases both the character in some ways or other had used each other and their love and played with the feelings though madhu did justice to them and the stories in the best way possible but she wasn't the problem in the first place. The problems is "US" the readers. The kind of bashing, personality shaming, anger, abuse and protest Khushi of this present story is facing, non of the above characters did even though the scenarios was way high in intensity and seriousness. But i didn't see anyone battling an eye for those. I didn't see anyone so against to them like this khushi. There wasn't this fixation of mind like for this khushi. People here seems too obstinate for khushi here that it is becoming too unreal and toxic.
