Part 45 Solution

Khushi and Nani were shocked like hell whereas Arnav was furious. He wanted to go out and kick the reporters. How dare they build up a story?

*Who is this Khushi Gupta?*

*Why is she staying at RM?*

*What is the relationship between her and ASR?*

The issue became HOT NEWS in the city. All the channels started gathering in front of RM one by one. The channels started putting their assumptions in front of people and searched for many HOT questions to raise their TRP, like,

*Are they in a live-in relationship?*

*Why does Arnav Singh Raizada keep their relationship secret?*

*It seems Arnav Singh Raizada has no idea to marry her or give her recognition*

*Just because Arnav Singh Raizada give her a musical chance in his movie, how a girl could give up so easily?*

It shows she could compromise anything to get a chance

Tears rolled down from Khushi's eyes. Nani did not know how to console Khushi. Arnav was embarrassed like hell. He lost his complete courage to even look at Khushi's face.

.......

Amrita and Avinash also were shocked by the news. They have to answer the respective girls who were waiting to marry Arnav with a lot of expectations.

Avinash had been planning many things keeping Arnav's proposal in his mind. His friend Ashish would kill him if Arnav didn't marry his daughter Avanti. What would he answer? How would he console Ashish?

On the other side, Amrita was seething in anger. She got a call from Nikita's mother.

"Niki is crying her heart out. I can't see my child in this state" she said as if Arnav was Nikita's husband.

Amrita did not know how to make her understand.

"Niki is not listening to me. Only you can console her. Please do it" She passed the phone to Nikita.

"Niki, beta... Please don't cry..." Amrita said even though she had no idea what would she do regarding.

"Aunty, I know, in some days, that Khushi will become a headache for us. Avanti told me about the girl..."

"She is just his friend beta... She is staying in RM. That's the cause of the issue. Don't we know about the media? They themselves would blow the balloon and burst it. It must have been done by Arnav's competitors. He doesn't even talk freely with anyone. He has many enemies in the Field. One among them should have created the problem. Don't worry. I'm here. I will sort it out" Amrita promised as if the problem was in her hand.

The same scene repeated at Avinash's place. Avanti was a step ago than Nikita. She directly came to Avinash's place with her father. Before Ashish says anything, Avinash took lead.

"I know why are you here. I also watched the news. I just want to tell you one thing. No news is permanent here. People will forget this if a new issue raises. That's all our people's memory power is. I know my son. The relationship is not his cup of tea. He hates girls"

Cutting him,

"Then why did he keep the girl in his house?" Ashish asked.

"I myself saw him talking her side," Avanti said.

"She is his friend and not staying at RM permanently. It's all built-up stories. My son is rigid like a rock. Only Avanti could melt him. That Khushi had no potential to do that. According to me, everything is happening for good"

"For good? Like really?"

"I told you. My son won't get trapped in a relationship with anyone easily. As this issue became big, Chotte himself will send her out of the house. Mark my words" Avinash said confidently. We can say, it consoled Ashish and Avanti.

RM

Khushi was crying nonstop. Nani was looking at Arnav who was restless like ever before.

"What are you going to do now, Chotte?" Nani asked.

"This must be Khushi's jijaji's dirty act. He challenged me that he will teach us a lesson. He did what he said. I'm not going to leave him" Arnav exclaimed gritting his teeth.

"I'm not talking about who is behind this issue. I'm asking you about the solution. How are you going to sort it out?"

"I will arrange a press meet and say Khushi is my friend"

"Do you think people will believe your words? Will people respect Khushi just because you said she is your friend?"

Arnav looked at Khushi who closed her eyes biting her lip.

"This is a matter of her respect Chotte... You brought her here. You gave her hope that she can be staying here as long as she wants. The situation doesn't seem so"

Arnav gulped down.

That was when the landline number started ringing. Nani attended it. It was Amrita's call.

"What's happening there, Mom? This is how you brought up my son? The whole world is spitting on him. What will you answer now? He is not even talking to me just because I remarried. But now, he is living with a girl without getting married to her. He gave the name to the relationship as a friendship. How cheap...!"

"Mind your words, Amrita..."

"You can shut my mouth but how will you shut the world's mouth? I know something should be there between them when she denied helping me to approach Chotte for marriage. Listen to me this time at least. Send her out of RM. Everything will be alright"

"We know what to do. You don't have to bother about us"

"You are talking, as if, I'm not responsible for Chotte's future"

"You are not... Absolutely you are not..."

Nani disconnected the call. But the phone again rang. Nani rolled her eyes. This time, Arnav himself attended the call. But the caller was not Amrita but Avinash.

"Who the hell is talking?" Arnav sneered.

"There is no use in getting hyper, Chotte. Understand the reality that you are in the phase of making a wise decision. It's not only about you but about Khushi. Don't be stubborn and spoil the girl's name."

Avinash talked about sending Khushi out of RM but it was not in Arnav's mind.

"Send her out of RM," Avinash said, which boiled Arnav's blood.

"Who the hell are you to say? Mind your damn business. Stop poking your nose into my matter" He shouted and disconnected not only the call but also the landline connection. He threw the wire with anger.

Khushi stood up from the couch. Arnav and Nani looked at each other.

"Thank you for being my support. Thank you for everything. I'm going" she said.

Nani held her hand.

"Where are you going, Khushi?"

"To my sister's house"

"But your Jeeja is out. Have you forgotten that he tried to kidnap you yesterday?" Arnav asked.

"What? Did he try to kidnap Khushi?" Nani asked shockingly.

"Haan, Nani... It happened in my recording theatre."

"Then, how could you think of leaving RM, Khushi?"

"What else could I do, Naniji? I can even manage my Jeejaji but what's happening right now is not up to my strength... I could not stand this Naniji"

Nani looked at Arnav.

"Send her from RM Chotte..."

"Have you gone mad, Nani? How could I send her? You have no idea how dangerous her Jeeja is. He is a beast, Nani..."

"Maybe... But the situation is not in our favor. We can't let anyone raise finger at her. She is our responsibility"

"That's what I'm saying. She is our responsibility... I can't send her from RM. She will be here... She must be here"

"How? As your friend? Even your parents are not ready to believe you and know you more than anyone. Then how will you shut the mouth of people?"

Arnav closed his eyes helplessly as he honestly didn't know what to do.

Khushi again walked away. Arnav gritted his teeth and blocked her way.

"Khushiiii... Don't make me angry. I'm already not in my control... Just stay, ok?"

Khushi nodded no.

"I can't... The world is chewing my name. How can I let them do it? Let me put the full stop"

Arnav clutched her hand.

"Noooo... It's not safe, Khushi. Try to understand. Your Jeeja is intentionally doing this, knowing your PULSE very well. He knew what will you do."

"Everything will happen as per our fate. No one could change it" she removed her hand from his clutch.

"Wait, Khushi..." Nani said.

Khushi was about to say something,

"I have a solution..." Nani said.

Arnav and Khushi looked at each other.

"Chotte doesn't want you to leave RM. You want to shut people's mouths. Both of your wishes will be fulfilled if you do what I say"

"What's that Nani?" Arnav asked eagerly.

"Leave it, you won't like the idea"

"Tell me what's that Nani"

"No Chotte... You will back off after knowing that. It will hurt Khushi"

"No Nani... I won't back off. If your idea solves our problem, I will surely do it, no matter whether I like it or not"

"Are you sure?"

"Damn sure "

"Shall I trust you?"

"Haannn... You can trust me"

Nani looked at Khushi and then Arnav.

"Tell me, Nani, what do you want me to do?"

"MARRY KHUSHI" Nani said making them dumbfounded.
