Part 3 

Anjali didn't talk to Arnav which irked him because the reason is Khushi. Because of her, his Di is angry with him. He went to her room to console her.

"Di, stop behaving like a kid" He said calmly.

"You don't have to say how to behave, Arnav because you yourself don't know that" She yelled.

Arnav was taken back as Anjali called him ARNAV, instead of Chotte.

"Di, I hate when you fight with me for someone"

"I too hate when you insult my guest. How could you, Chotte? Is there no value for me in this house?"

"Di, my intention is not that and you know that very well".

"What about Khushi? What does she think of you?"

"I don't care what she thinks of me"

"Doesn't mean you could insult her because your behavior says about your family"

Arnav rolled his eyes.

"What did you see badly in her that you behaved wired?" She showed her disappointment.

"What did you see in her that you guys are dancing with her?" he asked couldn't tolerate their involvement on a mere girl.

"She is a good girl, Chotte".

"A girl can't be so good to everyone, Di. She is acting."

"Why not, Chotte? Was not our Mumma good to everyone? Everyone liked Mumma then why not Khushi?"

"Di, don't compare our Mom with that girl"

Saying he left the room, not listen to her. He didn't like it when Anjali compared his mother with Khushi.

Dining

Anjali was still cold with Arnav. But what surprised Arnav was, he expected NK will also be upset with him. He thought Khushi would be told him about the encounter which happened between them but NK looked cool like always. Didn't Khushi tell him anything?

"Why are you looking upset Rani Sahiba? Is anything wrong?" Shyam asked her.

Everyone looked at her including Arnav. Anjali nodded NO.

"What happened Di, a smile; which always resides on your face is missing?" NK teased.

"Didn't Khushi call you?" She asked.

"Khushi? no.... but why should she call me?"

"She came here in the evening"

"Really? She didn't say anything about her arrival"

NK removed his phone and dialed Khushi. She received it.

"Did you come home today?"

"Haan. Didn't you say Naniji and Anjaliji want to meet me?"

"Why didn't you say to me?"

"You would be busy in the office. That's why."

"You may come on Sunday. I will be at home"

"I have to hunt a job, immediately. Don't you know my family's condition? I will be busy in the upcoming days. So, I thought to come there as I will be busy from tomorrow, attending interviews."

"Ok. Yaar... take care. Convey my regards to uncle and aunty."

"Sure. Take care"

"Bye"

NK disconnected the call and started eating casually.

Arnav couldn't believe that she didn't complain about him. Are not girls expert in complaining? But, it didn't happen. He looked at Anjali whose gaze was pricking him. He got back to his room completing the dinner. He felt bad as Anjali looked upset. He went to her room to console her, this time making himself not to lose his temper.

He stopped when he heard Anjali conveying the matter to Shyam.

"I don't know why Chotte behaved to Khushi like that for no reason."

"Did you talk to Khushi after that?"

"No. how could I? I feel guilty."

"Don't do that. She came to meet you. It's your responsibility to console her. What if she stops coming here, completely?"

Anjali nodded yes and dialed, Khushi. She received it.

" I thought you won't attend my call" said Anjali.

"Why did you think so, Anjaliji?"

"You must be upset...."

"I'm not upset... and definitely not with you"

"I'm sorry for whatever happened in RM."

"Leave it Anjaliji. I have forgotten that"

"Whattt? Did you forget it? How did you forget it, Khushiji?"

Shyam snatched the phone and turned the speaker ON.

"I have no time to think about the person who hates me Anjaliji... because I'm busy loving people who love me" she chuckled.

"You are so sweet Khushiji. This is what I liked about you. I was so worried you know?"

"Why?"

"I thought you won't come to RM after what happened in RM"

"Yes... I won't come..."

"I'm sorry Khushiji"

"Arrey... let me complete. I won't come when your KADOOS brother is at home."

She laughed. Anjali and Shyam joined her.

"Thank you so much for not taking him seriously, Khushiji."

"I told you Anjaliji. I have many more GOOD things to do. I can't waste my valuable time on him. Don't worry, be happy."

"Good night Khushiji"

"Good night"

She disconnected the call.

Arnav stepped back with mixed feelings. He wanted to get angry because she called him Kadoos... because she didn't take his words seriously...because she didn't even give heed to him... but... at the same time, he was confused too. How could a girl look so cool? Is it even possible?

And adding to it, being NK's girlfriend, how she couldn't take his words seriously? He couldn't come to any conclusion.

Arnav opened his eyes coming out of the flashback.

The same girl who didn't take his words, who looked so cool, who back questioned him is here... in his office...for a job interview. He remembered what she asked him the other day.

"Who are you to me? Why should I listen to you? Why should I obey you?"

MISS. COOL will get the answers to her questions if she gets the job in AR. He will be her BOSS... She has to listen to him... she must obey him. Won't she? She would... she should... she must... because, he is her BOSS.

He gave a look through the glass door, he saw Khushi coming out, finishing the interview. She raised her thumb towards NK who asked her about the interview. He shook hands with her. She looked so confident. So she had done the interview well.

Sitting on his seat, he decided what to do.

Arnav saw Aman coming with the interview result. Knocking on the door, Aman entered in. He submitted the result on Arnav's table.

"Done?" Arnav asked.

"Yes ASR."

Taking the resulting paper, Arnav read it.

As expected Khushi Kumari Gupta has been selected for the post.

"I had selected a very eligible person to the post. She is the only candidate who answered all the questions. She has enough experience too. She will be the perfect PA to Akash."

Aman said in one breath.

"Get the appointment order"

"Sure ASR"

Aman came with Khushi's appointment order in a few minutes. He kept it in front of Arnav.

"Here is the appointment order, for your signature"

Arnav looked at the particular lines of the appointment order.

You are being appointed as Personal Secretary of the company's AMD Mr. Akash Singh Raizada.

Arnav took his GOLDEN NIB pen out. Aman confused, seeing Arnav cut-off "A" from AMD. He shocked when Arnav cut-off "Akash Singh Raizada" and wrote HIS name...Arnav Singh Raizada on Khushi's appointment order and signed.

Dirty EGO

Seeing Aman standing like a statue, Arnav shrunk is eyes.

"What?"

"ASR... She has been selected as Akash's PA" he said hesitatingly.

"So what? What about me? Don't you guys ever think that I need a PA?" he asked seriously.

Aman dropped his jaw.
