Railway Station
.
.
The train started moving forward at its slow pace..

Arnav was sitting on the roof with his eyes closed and was feeling the shooting breeze around him.

He could hear different kinds of noises from the platform and it's people. He suddenly startled in his place. In the midst of all this noise he heard a familiar voice.. He couldn't hear the voice clearly because that person was still quite far from him so he could only hear a faint whisper. Through the voice was faint but he recognized the owner of this voice instantly.

He knew.. His heart knew whose voice he had heard..

.
.
Background music

.
.

Pal do pal ki hi kyun hai zindagi

.
.

Is pyaar ko hai sadiyaan kaafi nahi

.
.
.

Arnav opened his eyes and looked ahead to locate the owner of the voice..

He didn't take long to locate the fimiler figure running down the foot over bridge and shouting his name.

Arnav...

Arnavvv...

Arnnaavvvv..

Arnav was in a daze. He couldn't believe his eyes that she was here.. Even though he could see her but there was a fear inside his heart that she would disappear in the next moment.. At this moment he wanted to stop the time and wanted to stay there like this seeing her in front of his eyes.

.
.
.
To khuda se maang loon
Mohalat main ik nayi
.
.
Rehna hai bas yahaan
Ab door tujhse jaana nahi
.
.

.
.

When she reached near him, Arnav looked down to see her. She was anxious and breathless because of all this running. Without worrying about it, still she was running on the platform next to his train..

" Arnav, don't do this.. Please get down.." Khushi requested.. But she couldn't get his response.. He seemed to be lost in some deep thought..

This time Khushi raised her right hand a little and gestured to him to hold her hand and not to go like this leaving her behind..

"KHUSHI!! What are you doing here?" Arnav asked coming out of his daze..

" I'm running for the Olympics.. Can't you see? I'm saying something Arnav.. Please get down before it's too late.."

Arnav was unable to think anything.. He was just staring at Khushi and was gulping like a fish..

'' Arree.. Oi Gaddhe...
Yahaan main tere pechhe paagal kee tarah bhaag rehi hoon aur tum vahaan pagalo ke tarah baith ke machhaliyon jaise haamph rahe ho.Jaldi neeche uthar warna mujhse bura koi nahi hoga."

( Oyee Fool.. Here I'm running after you like a lunatic and you are sitting there like a stupid and panting like a fish. come down fast otherwise no one will be as bad as me.) Khushi couldn't control herself and shouted earning some glare from the passerby.

Arnav once looked at her then at the height.. Then asked
"How?? How I'll get down from here??"

" Did you asked me before climbing there how to climb? No na? Then just come down.. And do it fast.." Khushi ordered.

Arnav didn't know what to do and then next minute he saw Khushi collided with a lady and fell on the platform..

He saw the helplessness and also the agony to lose her bestfriend in her eyes.. Tears were flowing from her hazel eyes.

Without thinking about anything else he did what he felt right.. And the next instant he was also in the platform like her.

He looked up and saw Khushi running towards him..

.
.
Jo tu mera humdard hai,
.
.

Arnav managed to sit there on his left knee while folding his right knee up.. Khushi came there running and without thinking about anything threw herself in his arms, hugging him tight as if she was still not sure he was there..

.
.
Jo tu mera humdard hai..
.
.

She came out of the hug hearing a hissed from Arnav.
she then noticed his right knee had been slightly cut along with his both elbow due to his superhero stunt..

She panicked seeing blood oozing out of the wounds..

"Hey DM!! So much blood is coming out of your wounds Arnav.. ohh!! God.. what I'll do.. How I'll stop this flowing blood?." Khushi asked worriedly.

" Stay here... Don't you dare to move from here.. I'll be back in a minute." Saying so Khushi ran out of there.

A few minutes later Khushi came back with some neccessary dressing stuffs..

She carefully took hold of his one arm and raised his elbow. She slowly touched the wound with the antiseptic filled cotton.

Arnav stayed still but Khushi winced as if she was the injured one and Arnav was treating her wounds. His lips stretched into a warm smile seeing her care.

.
.
Suhaana har dard hai,
Jo tu mera humdard hai..
.
.

Seeing him smiling Khushi became Angry. She began to hit him on his chest lightly, taking care of not to hunt him more.

" You fool.. You stupid.. You moron.. You Gadhey ( donkey).. You ullkapattha.. Who told you to jump from the running train? See you got yourself injured.. Here I'm worrying for you and you are smiling.." Khushi shouted continuing her light hits.

"You only told me to get down. So I did. Do you think there was any other way than jumping. And these wounds will heal soon. They got the best treatment.." Arnav said warmly to calm her down.

"You sure you are not feeling much pain?" Khushi again asked.

" Yes.. I'm not feeling any pain and this outside wounds will also heal soon" Arnav said to assure her.

" In the midst of all this trouble, it's good that I've got you back. Thank you Arnav for not leaving me.."

Khushi again took him in a warm hug.. And this time both of them had a satisfied smile on their face..

.
.
Teri muskurahatein hain taaqat meri

Mujhko inhi se ummeed mili
.
.
Chaahe kare koi sitam ye jahaan

Inme hi hai sadaa hifaazat meri
.
.

Khushi helped him to stand on his feet..

.
.
Zindagani badi khoobsurat hui

Jannat ab aur kya hogi kahin
.
.

They walked out of the station holding each other's hands..

.
.
Jo tu mera humdard hai, Jo tu mera humdard hai..

Suhaana har dard hai, Jo tu mera humdard hai..
.
.

But both of them missed the person who had been watching them from the beginning.

_________________________________________

Khushi and Arnav came out of the station and while walking in the road they found a cliff. They went there and sad on the grass..

They sat in silence for a while.. Khushi was the first one to break their silence.. She took out a tiffin box from her bag and forward it to Arnav.

Arnav looked up to see her face and asked through his eyes what was that?

" I made some halwa pori today morning and though to bought some for you." Khushi answered him while opening the box.

Arnav looked at her silently.

" And yeah!! I made jalebi also. You start your breakfast till then I'll steal some jalebis from your quota." Khushi said eyeing her favorite jalebis.

"Pagal" Arnav muttered.

" Yeah.. Yeah. Everyone knows that I'm pagal for Jalebis.." Khushi winked at him.

Arnav was about to start his breakfast but his mind caught something. He looked at Khushi suspiciously.

"Why did you bring breakfast for me?"

Khushi tried to say something but Arnav again cut him.

" Wait.. Before answering my previous question first tell me How did you know I was there in the Railway station?" Arnav asked.

" First finish your breakfast then I'll answer all your questions." Khushi tried to avoid his questions..

"Khushi" Arnav uttered her name.

" Okay. Okay. I will not fly away from here without answering your question. You first finish all this food. You must be hungry.."

Arnav started eating silently while gazing her now and then.

After finishing his food he was all ready for his rapid fire questions. But before him Khushi started her blabber.

" Tomorrow the first thing I should do is to thank Zoya..." Khushi said.

" Why should you thank Zoya?" Arnav asked.

" Why shouldn't I? Because of her I found you at the right time otherwise till now I would have been running here and there looking for you." Khushi replied annoyed.

" Will you mind telling me How did you know that you will find me there?" Arnav asked avoiding her blabber.

" I don't know how but I just got the feeling that you were there." Khushi replied with a pout.

" Argh.. Girl.. You are very complicated.. Tell me everything from the beginning."

"Okay.." Khushi took a deep breath.

" I found out that you were worrying about my future unnecessarily and thinking yourself responsible for all those things we went through in the school. Not only that you were planning something stupid. How could you think that leaving from here will reduce my problem? You don't know me... I'm Sanka devi. problems follow me whenever I go."

" Cut the crap and tell me how you found about all this?" Arnav asked impatiently.

" Ohh! That.. Mmmm. Actually when you were busy with your self talk outside Principal's office someone heard you and yesterday he told me about your stupid decision." Khushi informed hesitantly.

" Who is that person?" Arnav asked calmly.

" Is it important to know his name?"

" Yes.. You heard me. Now tell me his name." Arnav asked but this time there was no calmness in his voice.

"Mmm. Ooo. Aman. He heard you that day and he was worried about you Arnav. That's why he told me. He knew only I could help you. And see.. I did. You please don't get angry with him."

Arnav did not replied for sometime then again turned towards her to asked another question. " How did you know that I was in the railway station?"

" Ooo.. Actually.. First tell me you will not shout at me and won't get angry." Khushi asked as she was scared of his reaction.

Arnav nodded his head affirmatively without uttering anything.

" So.. You remember you didn't come to school for three days last week. That time I was so worried for you. I didn't even know your address to go there and confirmed that you were ok.. So.. That day when you came back I wanted to asked you your address but you were behaving rude. So.. After school I followed you and got your address by my own. " Khushi replied and at the end gave him a sheepish smile.

" Unbelievable. Only you can do something like that. That day I also felt someone was following me but I couldn't spot you."

"Yeah. I'm very good at my work. See I finished my work so easily without being caught." This time Khushi gave him her brightest smile.

Arnav felt good seeing her happy. But some questions are sill pending.

"So. Today you followed me from my home to station?"

" Actually No..".

" Then? How did you find me?" Arnav asked alarmed.

" Actually I met HP chachu there and...."

" And what damn it?" Arnav lost his cool.

" Arnav please calm down. Let me finish." Khushi requested, seeing him being so restless.

Few hours ago

Khushi was happy with her detective result. If she hadn't followed Arnav that day she wouldn't have known his address this time also. She was standing outside Arnav house and was little nervous thinking about Arnav's outburst. Whatever.. His anger felt common now a days to her..

She wouldn't have come here so early if Aman hadn't told her about Arnav's stupid thought process..

" Stupid.. Fool.. How can he think because of him I'll stuck into problems.. Let me make him understand today very clearly that I wouldn't let him run away from me even."

Khushi would have asked him about all this yesterday itself but she didn't want to drag Zoya in all this in her first day. That's why she left him yesterday and now she was here in front of his home to make that stubborn understand some real facts.

In her excitement she woke up early and cooked breakfast by herself. She didn't forget to bring some for her best friend also.

She pressed the doorbell for the third time but none was coming. Did she come early? Yes.. She did. It's hardly 8 am. And upon that it's Sunday. Maybe she should have come a little later. But she couldn't stop herself from coming early.

" Aman told me there are some problems in Arnav's house. Will my visit increase some more problem for him" Khushi thought chewing her nails.

" What can you do now sanka devi. I'm already here. And I won't go back without meeting him." Khushi said confidently.

She was about to tap the calling bell again when someone opened the door.

" Yes" Asked a confused HP.

" I'm here to meet Arnav. I'm Khushi.. His friend. Can you call him?" Khushi asked him.

As soon as HP heard Arnav's name he couldn't control himself and his eyes became mist.

"Ar..nav.. Ba..ba.!!" HP whispered with a broken tone.

" Yes. Arnav. But uncle are you okay?" Khushi asked anxiously.

" Baba chala gaya.. Sab kuch chod ke chala gaya. ( Baba went away.. he went away leaving everything.)" HP said.

" Huh!! What do you mean by saying that he went away? Where? Where did he go? Please tell me.. please uncle." Khushi requested him.

"Let him go. Let him find some solace. It will be good for him." Hp told while wiping his eyes.

" Nooo. No.. please. I can't let him go like this. I'll do anything to bring him back. Bring the real him. Please. I'm requesting you please tell me where did he go?" Khushi pleaded him.

" You think you can bring him back?" Hp asked seeing the determination in this new girl's eyes.

" Yes." Khushi replied without wasting time.

" I don't know bitiya where he went. All I know that he left. If you can bring my Arnav baba back then go bring him back." HP said.

" But where do I look for him?" Khushi asked as she didn't know much about this new city.

" If god wants You will find him bitiya. I'm sure.. go find your friend and bring him back. "

Without replying back Khushi ran away from there in search of her best friend.

HP closed the door and went to the kitchen. He didn't notice the figure standing in the second floor.

Khushi was running on the street. She didn't know which way she should take. All she knew was she had to stop Arnav anyhow.

" Where should I go first? Bus stop or Railway station?" Khushi asked herself.

Her heart replied her Railway station..

So without thinking much she stopped an auto and asked the driver to take her in the Railway station.

##################

" That's how I found you." Khushi complete her side of story.

Arnav was restless thinking she might have come to know about his past. And who knows After knowing his past she might also start hating him like his mother. He didn't want to see hate in her eyes. He wouldn't be able to take that.

Khushi saw him and pressed her hand in his. Arnav looked at her.

" Arnav.. You should know one thing. I'll be always beside you. You can tell me anything. Anything means anything. Or haan... dard baatne se kam hota hai." Khushi said directly looking into his eyes.

" You will hate me like Mom." Arnav whispered in a broken tone.

Khushi's heart went to him seeing him like this. She hugged him tightly to assure him that she wouldn't hate him.

" I won't. I can't hate you Arnav.. Never. I'll be always beside you. I'll be your Humdard in your hard time. I'll erase all your sorrows" Khushi assured him.

"Sacchi? ( Really?)" Arnav asked him like a small child, who is afraid to be left behind alone.

"Mucchi" Khushi replied cheerfully.

#################

See.. I didn't break anyone's heart..

Arnav and Khushi are together..

I didn't let Arnav go like that ;)

How is today's update?

Arnav's past will be revealed in the next update...
