Shocked...or surprised...or dumbstruck...what it was...Arnav was confused about his own feelings when Mr. Kashyap showed a picture of Khushi and her sister Payal with Lavanya...he told him the picture was taken 1 year ago when Shashi was alive...Arnav took the picture...and kept that with him...after just one look to it...he didn't say anything after taking the picture...Akash only had a single glance over the picture...he was not that bothered about it..as he knew Arnav will do what it was needed...but after seeing Arnav's expression for the picture he got confused...here Arnav Singh Raizada definitely failed to mask his true feeling with his fake feelings and attitude...
At Delhi
Lavanya was sitting beside the bed where Khushi was lying...she was unconscious...she was given some sedatives so that she can have some sleep...especially after such a physical and mental torture...Aman was at the information area to do all the formalities and pay the bills...
At 1st Lavanya forbade him to pay the bills...but when Aman told her that it was like a compensation from the AR...she didn't refuse...as she also knew...right now they didn't have that much money...but about the compensation...Lavanya didn't accept it on behalf of Khushi...according to her it should be her decision...and the way they tortured her...it was never enough to heal her wound...
On the other side Aman was ready with his logic...stating that Khushi was certainly at fault as she tried to buy a person for her own benefits...just then Lavnaya understood that yeah...Khushi was not that much naive in this issue...so she had not reason to fight back...not now at least...so she accepted the money...and promised to return back when Khushi will be fine...
When Aman and Lavanya reached to police station...they found her almost numb...Aman took back the case upon her...and filed another case on the man who hired Khushi...well for now the important thing was Khushi was out of the mess...but she was not in her senses...she didn't react at all when Lavnay met her...she was much more pale than before...and seeing this Aman didn't delay a minute to take her to the hospital...not to mention Arnav also ordered him to do the same...
Nikhil directly reached hospital...that night...he met Lavanya...who was throwing daggers through her eyes...she didn't talk to him...neither let him see Khushi...Nikhil did nothing as he knew partially he was also at fault...when he knew Khushi was an innocent sole...and ASR the owner of AR was not an easy going man when it comes to his company...he shouldn't have sent her just for some money...but Khushi needed money...and she requested him for this assignment...knowing about every possible danger she could face...Khushi took it...and now...lying on the bed...just to come back to her normal form...so that she can again jump in that fire...which was...which is...and which will burn her till her mother's survival...and may be till her own survival...
At Lucknow
Akash: bhai...are you ok?? (Akash shakes him a little..)
Arnav was so lost in his thought...that he didn't even realize that Akash was asking him to come out of the car...as they reached the hotel...
Arnav came out of his thought...and looked around...
Arnav: yeah I am fine...
Both of them came in the hotel...Akash was about to say something when Arnav stopped him with his words...
Arnav: listen...i am going to my room...i need some rest...
Akash: yeah...ok bhai...
Arnav turned to leave...when Akash called him from behind...
Akash: bhai...why don't you give me the picture of Khushi..i mean Gupta's daughter...I'll ask Aman to investigate...
Arnav turned to see Akash...thought something...
Arnav: No Akash...these things are quite personal...as you know that how I relate to Shashi uncle...so better...I keep it with myself...
Arnav turned on his heels...and moved to his room without waiting for Akash's reply...Akash just stared at the way Arnav went...then he just shrugged his thought...and went to his own room to get some sleep...
At Arnav's room
Arnav was standing at the window...looking outside...enjoying the night view of Lucknow...but he was not really interested at the night view more than the picture he was holding in his hand...he was confused...this is Khushi...Khushi Kumari Gupta...daughter of Shashi Gupta...the girl he met at orphanage...her mother was sick...yeah...Dadi was asking Khushi about her mother...he heard their conversation...Arnav was in his thought...when his phone buzzed...
A message from Aman...
Aman: Filed a case against the guy who hired the girl. She is in hospital.
"Why the hell is Aman informing me about that girl..?!" Arnav flinched with the thought...then he suddenly realized...he should know...why shouldn't he?? Just because of this mismanagement...he couldn't have any trace of Shashi Gupta...the man who raised him...the man who possessed him...the man to whom the great Arnav Singh Raizada is indebt...
Arnav put down his phone on the bedside table...he loosened his tie...made a drink...sat on his bed...resting his head on the headboard closing his eyes...sipping his drink occasionally...he saw something...those eyes...those hazel eyes...NO!! he opened his eyes...gulped the whole drink in one go...which burning him from inside...he needed a break from all of this...death of Shashi Gupta...Khushi Kumari Gupta...and more to add...those hazel eyes...so familiar...
Arnav took his phone...called someone...
"Send a girl"
'... '..
"I don't care..."
'... '...
"Any model of AR from Lucknow.."
'... '.. '.
"I am giving you 1 hour.."
Again he rested his head on the previous place...waiting to start the night...waiting to forget his tension...
Midnight
At Hospital, Delhi
"Tell us...whom do you work for?" grabbing a handful of hair...
" I don't work for anyone..."
"Tell us...or else..." someone put a pen between her two fingers...and pressed...
"Aaa..."
"Tell us...how much you got from this deal??" a tight slap...
" I didn't get anything.."
Then everything went dark...
"Aree Titaliya...don't go there...you'll fall beta..." a women asked her with concern...
"You'll be my son..!!" the man hugged her with pride..
Everything went dark again...
"Sorry he is no more.." the doctor couldn't raised his eye...
"You'll have to pay..or your mother's treatment will delay.." the helplessness in his eyes...
Khushi shot up from the bed...she was breathing hard...the beads of sweat kissing her forehead...she touched her forehead...removed the sweats...and tucked the strands behind her ear which was laying on her face...she tried to breathe normal...looked around her...adjusting her memories...caught the sight...where Lavanya was sleeping on a couch in a sitting position...resting her head on the back...
Khushi lied down again...a lone tear escaped from her eye...travelling her cheeks...she again closed her eyes...sighed with frustration...what will she do?? If she is awake...reality is scratching her soul every now and then...If she is sleeping...dream is causing her fear to death...why so helpless...
At Hotel Room, Lucknow
Those Hazel eyes...one thrust...
That smile...one hard thrust...
That melodious voice...another thrust...
That soft touch on his skin...another thrust...
He opened his eyes...coming out of the memory...hearing a scream in pain...gritted his teeth...clenched his jaw with all rage...he banged his hand on the side...coming out from the girl laying under him...lied down on his side...breathing hard...sweating hard...
Arnav: Leave...
The girl looked at him...with wide eyes...tears were touching her cheeks...yeah...the encounter was really painful...unbearably painful...but how could he just say...at least he should let her stay till the sunrise...
Arnav: Leave...NOW!!
His authoritative voice stated everything...he doesn't care...he doesn't give a damn...
The girl got up from the bed...dressed herself...and moved out from the room...taking a check kept on the table...
Arnav got up...went to bathroom for a cold shower...he'll have to control his mind...Arnav Singh Raizada can't lose his mind like this...at least not for something so meaningless...
He was standing under shower...resting his both hand on the wall...he was relaxing...water was rippling over his toned body...the sound of the water was soothing...suddenly...he opened his eyes...he murmured under his breathe...
"Khushi's number.."
