"What the hell? You recoinciled with him? Why?"asked a frustated Sweta.

"Yuhi."Khushi replied.(At random)

"Yuhi... Yuhi... Uss bewakoof, idiot aur stupid Arnav ke kaaran itne dino se humara dimaag khraab kar di thi aur aaj keh rhi ho ki yuhi. I can't believe this. But Khushi Kumari Gupta is unpredictable, wo to kabhi bhi kuch bhi kar skti h. Jab man kiya ro di, jab man kiya has di. Paagal to hamlog hote hai, iske piche."Sweta replied angrily.(At random... random... Because of that duffer,idiot and stupid Arnav you disturbed our mind and now you are saying at random. I can't believe it. But Khushi kumari Gupta is unpredictable, she can do whatever she wants to do. Whenever she feels like crying, she cries, whenever she feels like laughing, she laugh. And we were being mad because of her.) 

Khushi know that Sweta is right and she can't defend herself as well. So she asked Samayra and Riddhima for help.

"Sweta Yaar, baat samajh na. Maana ki ye itne dino se khud to preshaan thi aur humein bhi kar rkha tha, but we should be happy that atleast now she found her peace. Her happiness resides in him."told Samayra .(Sweta dear, please understand. I know she was distresses and kept us at edge too.)

"Ronny, I am sorry for all the hurt i have caused to you all in my distress. But i now know that i can never be happy without him.Please don't be angry."Khushi pleaded with a puppy eyes.

"Now don't show me this puppy eyes. Ok i accept but don't go straight into his arms please. Give him a tough time to pursue you."Sweta agreed but with a condition.

"Wo to unko milega hi. After all Khushi Kumari Gupta is not easy to pursue. And i have a plan for that."Khushi said with a wicked smile.(That he will definitely get) 

"Now finally we got our Khushi back."the girls shouted.

BOYS HOSTEL WING

"What? How can she be so stupid? How can she forgive him?"asked a angered Aman.

"Because she is in love."answered Anirudh.

"Correction. She was in love."corrected Aman.

"Love can never end, it only increases or decreases with time."replied Anirudh.

"Jai ho, Anni baba ki. Baba ji itne ucch vichaar aapko aate kha se h?"asked Aman jokingly.(Hail Anni baba.From where do you get these wonderfull ideas.)

"Sansaar. Sansaar hi to iss adbhut gyaan ka zariya hai. Ye aapko sab kuch sikha deti hai."he joked.(World. World is the source of these wonderfull knowledge. It teaches you everything.)

"Adbhut baba ji. Iss tuchh manusya ko bhi apni saran me le."said Aman.(Amazing babaji, please accept this human under you)

"Jarur vatsa."Anirudh replied. (Okay)

"Now stop both of you. I shared my happiness but instead of getting happy for me you guys are playing around."said Arnav.

"We are happy yaar,but its hard to believe that she forgive you that too this soon. But whatever it is, now don't you dare hurt her again." said Aman .

"I won't, believe me."Arnav promised. Aman can see his sincierity in his eyes.

NEXT DAY

"Khush, stop right there. You can't run away from me."Shashank said while trying to catch Khushi who was running. 

"Stop me if you can Aashu."Khushi said while running away from him.

This entire scene was watched by Arnav who was coming to see her. While Khushi was running while looking behind and got bumped with Arnav and was going to loose her balance but he caught her on time.

"Easy, easy girl. See the result of running like mad. You landed yourself in the stanger's arm."Shashank said while snatching her from his arms which was not liked by Arnav at all and also when he called him stranger. Like really how dare he snatched his Khushi from his arms while Khushi could do nothing but grin inwardly seeing her plan getting succesfull.

"Sorry Mr. you know she is crazy and don't see her surrounding."he apologised pretending that he doesn't know him.

"Aashu?"khushi acted like she is hesitating to introduce Arnav.

Arnav was watching all the exchange between the two with curious eyes.

"What, can't you see i am talking?."he said faking to be angry.

"Aashu, he is Arnav. The one you met at fresher's." She told pretending to be uncertain that Shashank knows him or not.

"Ohh yeah!! i remember the one who cornered you."he said to rile Arnav .

"Excuse me, i hadn't cornered her that day. We were just talking.By the way,i am not here to argue you but talk to Khushi. "Arnav couldn't stop himself from lashing out on Shashank.All these were enough to worsen his mood, The way he was showing his closeness with Khushi, they addressing each other with nick names and not to forget the way they were standing so close to each other. 

"So talk, who stopped you?"Shashank said casually.

"ALONE"Arnav said while gritting his teeths.

"Ok"he said dejectly  "Take care" he said to Khushi while hugging her as if he is leaving her in the middle of a war. This scene made Arnav clentch his fist tight.

"As if i'll eat you up!"he exclaimed rolling his eyes.

Khushi chuckled hearing him complain.

"He is just concerned about me, thats it."she said.

"And who is he to be so concerned about you?"he asked not hiding his anger.

"My best friend"she said

"Bullshit!!"he exclaimed

"Language!!"she eyed him.

"If he is your best friend, then what am i?"he asked ignoring her comment.

"You..."she hesitated to answer.

"Why can't you answer me a simple thing, khushi? I know he is your friend but you are or were never this free with me then why you are so close with him?"he asked clearly hurt.

"Because he was there when you weren't, because he talks to me in front of others, because he isn't ashamed of me or our friendship, because he never kept hidden his past."she said clearly hurt .

"I am not ashamed of you, i never was."he sighed defeatedly.

"Then what was that. Explain !!"she asked forgetting her initial plan

"I can't... Not now atleast"he said.

"That's the reason why he is close to me and not you. When you have that strength to share your deepest darkest fear then come to me."she said and walked out half heartedly feeling dejected for talking to him like that.
