Part 30 Heartless Creature

"Then get her married to me," Arnav said making Anjali speechless.

Anjali was gazing at him like ever before. Arnav smiled at her folding his hands.

"Chottteeeee.... What did you say?" she hiccupped.

"I said, get Khushi married to Arnav" he uttered their names.

"Are you really, really sure about it?" she wanted to confirm it.

"I'm really, really damn sure about it"

"Please, pinch me... I want to get sure about whatever happening now" she held her head that was rotating.

"Enough Di..."

"What happened to you, Chotte? Why suddenly do you want to marry Khushi? when did you have the idea?"

"Stop it, Di"

"Please tell me na" she pleaded.

"A few minutes ago... when she had tears in her eyes..." Arnav said thinking through Khushi's teary eyes.

"Were you scared that she would leave you?"

Arnav blinked his eyes.

"That means LOVE entered into our Chotte's steel shielded heart"

Arnav rolled his eyes smilingly.

"Do you like her?" she asked curiously.

"I will tell you but one condition"

"What condition?"

"you should not get jealous"

Anjali dropped her jaw and Arnav laughed seeing her expression. She pouted.

"Di, You, Mom, and Khushi are different and incomparable. You three are important to me and I can't get a compromise on that" Arnav said with a smile.

"In which you can't get compromised?" came from the doorstep.

They saw Ratna standing. Anjali rushed to Ratna.

"Mom, our Chotte wants something"

"What? Badam Halwa?" she teased.

"No, Mom... Badam halwa is not enough for him. he wants the person who makes Badam Halwa" Anjali chuckled.

Ratna looked at her unbelievably.

"What are you saying?"

"Our Chotte had fallen for Badam Halwa girl"

"Chotttteeee..." she uttered his name in the same way Anjali did.

"Same reaction..." Arnav laughed.

Ratna pulled his hand and made him sit. She also sat next to him.

"Is it, Chotte?" Ratna searched for the answer in his eyes.

"Yes, mom. I love her..."

"Oh my God... Anju, our Chotte is in love"

Anjali nodded yes.

"What will we do?"

"Mom... hold on..."

"Why?"

"She doesn't have much idea in her heart" he sighed.

"So, what? We will create it"

"You don't know about her Mom. If she gets a chance, she will make me sit on the stage and start worshiping me with flowers and offerings" he said smilingly.

"Means?"

"According to her, I'm Godddd...." He sighed.

Ratna and Anjali burst out laughing and Arnav rolled his eyes.

"You guys don't talk to her anything regarding. I will take care of her"

"Ohh...." Anjali teased.

"I can't believe my son is in love. I'm going to make sweet for today's Pooja" Ratna said excitedly.

"Ask your bahu to make Badam Halwa" Anjali laughed.

"Good idea," Ratna said.

She stopped.

"By the way Chotte, how did you realize your love?"

"Mom, ask him who made him realize his love"

"Who?"

"Simran"

"Whaaaat?"

"Yeah, because of her phone call, Khushi cried... and made our Chotte think Khushi will leave him. that's what made our Chotte realize his love"

"Don't talk about the arrogant idiot, Di... what is she thinking of herself?"

"What did she say?" Ratna asked worriedly.

"She degraded Khushi. I will find a way soon to shut her chapter"

Ratna and Anjali spared a glance.

Though Arnav seemed casual he was seething from inside thinking about Simran. how long could he protect Khushi? What if Simran called Khushi again? he wanted to talk to Shyam about it the next day.

...........

Sinha Villa

Simran called Ajay Singh through the phone given by her man. Ajay Singh attended it.

"Khushi is going to shiv Mandir coming Sunday morning"

"Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter at all. What important is, the information."

"How could I trust you?"

"You can... because I want her to be away from Delhi. Take her away from Delhi. I will let you know if I get any updates regarding the plan"

"Thank you"

Simran disconnected the call. Ajay Singh became thoughtful. Who was she? Why does she want Khushi to go out of Delhi? What enmity does she have with Khushi? Khushi was new to Delhi. She never come to Delhi before. Then how does this girl know Khushi? Or, was she planning something else? Let's see... if the information was true, then that will be the best chance to abduct Khushi from Arnav. Ajay Singh started planning what to do.

..........

The next day /AR

Shyam was checking a file of the French deal. He raised his head, seeing Arnav entering his cabin. He wondered as Arnav had never come to his cabin so far and he didn't get Shyam's permission to enter. He sensed something wrong, seeing Arnav's face.

"What happened Arnav? Is everything alright?"

"How could everything be alright when your sister is there?" he gritted his teeth.

Shyam gulped down.

"I'm sorry to say this, Shyam. She is crossing her limits. Ask her to be within her limits. I'm sparing her only for you. I don't know when I will lose my patience completely. Please don't feel bad if I do something and please don't make me do something" Arnav seethed.

"What she did Arnav? Tell me and then scold"

"She called Khushi and insulted her with uncultured words"

"Whaaaat?"

"This is the limit, Shyam. She is testing my patience a lot. Who gave her the right to talk to Khushi? Who is she to ask Khushi to leave me? How could she?"

"Leave you?"

"She asked Khushi to go away from me"

"But why?"

"Instead of me, you should ask the question to your sister"

"I won't spare her if I see tears in Khushi's eyes again, Shyam, and I mean it" Arnav warned.

Arnav clutched the door knob to open the door, he stopped hearing,

"Do you love Khushi, Arnav?" Shyam asked.

Arnav looked at him sternly.

"Yes... I love her" he didn't hesitate. Why would he? After all, he was Arnav Singh Raizada.

Shyam was stunned.

"Does Anju know about your love for Khushi?"

"She does..."

Arnav left his cabin. Shyam sat on the chair thinking about Arnav. On one side, Arnav was in love with Khushi. on the other side, Simran was fully set to get Arnav. Arnav will go to any extent to get what he wanted. No doubt, Simran will be a headache to him. This problem had to be finished as much as possible.

Evening

Shyam came home and searched for Simran in her room. She was not in her room. Shyam heard water flowing sound from the washroom. He sat on the couch and waited for Simran. He ran his eyes into her room. Her phone had been connected to the charger. Nothing was there to be suspected. He sulked as he felt the phone's vibration. He saw a basic model phone in between the small gap on the couch. Shyam frowned. What phone was that? That was not Simran's type. She always used the latest phones. he took the phone and saw the phone vibrating with an incoming call. The number seemed unknown. Shyam attended it but didn't talk.

"Oiy, madmaji... Ajay Singh speaking. (Shyam was shocked to the core. Ajay Singh?) You said you will update me about Khushi. We reached Delhi. Tell me the location of the temple to which Khushi is going to come on Sunday. We have to give a look at the temple. Then only we can plan. Let me know the exact time if possible"

Shyam was horrified to hear that. Was Simran planning to this extent? What will happen if Arnav got to know about this plan? He will kill Simran and Shyam will never think of getting Anjali. It will become a dream and the dream will never come true.

Why this Simran was stooping so low? How did she involve in this matter? Did she involve or it was she who gave an idea to Ajay Singh to kidnap Khushi? Maybe, she could have done that. She had the guts. Didn't she know the consequence of her deed? Vijay Singh will marry Khushi. She will become a wife of an eighty-five years old man. How heartless creature Simran was? He felt ashamed of his sister. Taking the mobile, he left her room silently.
