Part 77

Just then nurse came and informed them that Anjali gained consciousness. Everyone went inside.. Anjali slowly opened her eyes. Mami helped her to sit on the bed.

Looking at their sad faces "What happened ?? Why are you all looking sad ??"

"Anjali bitiya. Your baby ..." Nani cried not able to say more.

"Nani. Don't cry. My baby is fine" said Anjali and caressed her stomach. She couldn't feel her baby.

"My baby. Where is my baby ??"asked Anjali holding Nani's hands. All are crying.

"Shyamji. Where is our baby ??"asked Anjali. He too faked his tears..

Then turning to Arnav asked " Chote. where is my baby ??"

Arnav sat beside her on the bed, taking her hands , not looking at her said " Your baby is no more Di"

"No No chote. You are lieing. I don't like these type of jokes" said Anjali.

Arnav looked at her with tear filled eyes "I am not lieing Di"

Seeing his tearful eyes, understanding the situation Anjali cried out loudly. Arnav hugged her immediately. Everyone there cried seeing them.

Arnav consoled Anjali and make her sleep after sometime.

" You all leave to house. It is already night " said Nani.

"Sasumaa. I will stay here with Anjali bitiya. You go home. You need rest."said mami.

"But how can you alone manage her ??"asked Nani.

"I too will stay here Naniji" said Payal.

Nani nodded her head.

"Haan Naniji. Mamiji and Payal will stay here. Arnav too will be here to see if they needs anything" said Shyam.

All looked at him surprised while Shashi and Khushi were frightened.

Arnav is going to protest when Arvind said "Ok then. We will take Khushi to our house"

All looked at him puzzled.

"I am sorry Naniji . Don't take me wrong. Today there was an attempt to kill Khushi's child.. What if the person who got failed in his plan will again do something.. If Arnav won't be there, Khushi will be alone then he/she will get easy chance to harm her or baby. He/she will try until they get succeeded in their plan..I can't take any risk regarding my sister and her baby. So I will take her to our house. " said Arvind.

"Haan beta. You are right. Damadji, You stay here along with them. Khushi bitiya needs Chote" said Nani.

"But Naniji. I have some work" said Shyam murmuring.

"HHBB Damadji.. At this situation too, you are talking about work.."said Mamiji..

"Ha jiju. You stay with Di here" said Akash.

"Ok." Said Shyam faking a smile.

After that everyone left for home except Payal, Shyam and mami.

Whole through the journey , Khushi was silently lost in her thoughts. Arnav knew what she is going through, he din't disturbed her even he too was in a shock for the things happened today..

After reaching RM, Khushi silently went into her room without talking with anyone..

"Chote.. Khushi bitiya" said Nani with a worried tone.

"I will manage Nani. You go and take rest " said Arnav.

"Take her something to eat" asked Nani and NK led her to room while Arnav into the kitchen.

IN Kitchen:

Arnav saw OP in the kitchen. He asked him to send HP to his room. He then boiled the milk, took some fruits and went to his room.

Khushi is not in the room, he heard sound from washroom.. He silently kept the tray on the table. Khushi came out of the washroom. She silently came and sit on the bed..

"Khushi." called Arnav softly giving the milk to her.. She nodded as if she din't want..

Arnav understood why she is avoiding "I only boiled them Khushi. Don't you trust me too"

Khushi silently took it from him and drank it..

"Now complete all these fruits. I will come soon changing" said Arnav.

"I am not feeling hungry" said Khushi.

"Not even for our baby too" asked Arnav. She silently took the plate and started having them. Arnav went into washroom to change..

When he returned back, Khushi is not in the room. He looked at the plate which is completed. He felt a relief..

He saw her at the poolside watching stars. He stroded to her..

"Khushi" called Arnav softly. She din't say anything. Arnav made her turn towards him and hugged her.

"I don't understand anything Arnavji" said Khushi breaking the silence, " to feel happy that my child is safe or to feel sad that Di lost her baby. "

Arnav didn't say anything just stroking her back lovingly.

Their trance is broken by the knock at the door.. Arnav went and opened the door. He saw HP standing infront of them. He allowed him to come in..

"Arnav bhaiyya. What happened ?? Why did you called me ?? How is Anjali Di ??"asked HP.

Arnav narrated HP what happened and what doctor told.

"Arnav Bhaiyaa. Devimaa ki kasam. I didn't do anything. " said HP.

"I know HP. I believe you but did you find anything weird while mixing juice for Khushi" asked Arnav.

HP thinking for a while said "Haan Bhai. While I was mixing, landline rang, I came into the hall to attend it. When I lifted it, no one was there. It happened for three times. Then Khushi Bhabi's father and Bhai came."

Arnav simply nodded his head and asked "Was Sheetal and Shyam there at the time in kitchen or anywhere near it."

Hp though Confused but said "Haan bhai. Sheetalji was there in the kitchen to drink water when I went out to attend the phone"

That's it. Arnav got his answer. He asked HP to go from there.

He turned to Khushi who is having a vulnerable expression.

"Arnavji. What if she again tries to hurt my baby ??'asked Khushi choking.

"Shh Khushi. That won't happen. Trust me. I will never let anything happen to you and our baby" said Arnav.

He lifted her and placed on the bed softly. He sat beside her stroking lovingly. Soon Khushi felt asleep.

After confirming Khushi slept, Arnav went out of the room.. NK who is in his room saw Arnav going.

"Where is Nannav going now ?? Seems like he is going to Sheetal's room" thought NK and followed him.

Arnav knocked the door of Sheetal's room. She opened the door and was shocked to see Arnav in front of her with anger filled eyes.

Arnav entered into her room and before she could ask anything

SLAP!!

Arnav slapped Sheetal hardly on her cheek and caught hold of her neck.

"You bloody bitch. I will kill you" said Arnav tightening his hold.

NK who came there was shocked to see and came forward saying "Nannav. Leave her"

Somehow NK got succeeded in separating Arnav and Sheetal. Sheetal is coughing due to his hold.

"Leave me NK. This girl tried to kill my baby" said Arnav gritting his teeth.

NK didn't show any emotion as he already had a doubt on them.

"Nannav. We can deal with her later. You go to Khushiji" said NK.

Arnav then turning to her "I just came here to warn you. If you and your Bhai think to harm my baby and Khushi even in your dreams then that day will be the last day of you both on this earth. It takes no time for me to dig a grave for you both. Stay away from my family" said Arnav in his total ASR avatar.

Sheetal gulped seeing his reaction.. NK gave a disgust look to her.

Arnav left from there to his room. He saw Khushi who is sleeping but still there were worried lines on her forehead.. he silently joined beside her, placing a light peck on her stomach, slept holding her hand.

After three days:

Anjali is discharging from hospital. In these three days, mami din't even allow Shyam to be away from Anjali stating that she needs him.. He is going on battling between hospital and house.. he din't even concentrated on his work. he was frustrated with it.

Soon they reached RM. Everyone welcomed them.. Anjali's face is gloomy and sad.. All of them sighed seeing here. They can't understand how to console her..

Arnav went near her, enveloping his hands around her shoulder brought her into the house like a fragile doll. He made her sit on the sofa. Nani sat beside Anjali patting her head. There was a mourning silence. Shyam went upstairs to the room vexed up with their drama.

"Di. come. I will take you to your room" said Arnav. Anjali simply nodded her head and got up.

Just then Arnav's phone rang. It was from Sharath. It must be definitely important news thought Arnav

"Chote. Attend your phone" said Anjali seeing his dilemma.

"But Di.."said Arnav.

"It's Ok Chote. You attend your phone. I understood it must be something important by your face. So, don't worry" said Anjali.

Arnav nodding his head, turned to NK "NK. Take Di to her room"

NK agreed and took Anjali to upstairs holding her..

While going towards their room, Anjali saw Shyam going towards Sheetal's room angrily.

"NK Bhai. Shyamji is looking angry. Don't know what Sheetal done now . Let's see what is going on" said Anjali.

" Ok Di." said NK and they both went there.

In Sheetal's room, Shyam entered frustrated and threw his phone on the bed.. Sheetal jerked seeing his anger.

Here Anjali and NK came near the room. Anjali is going inside but NK stopped her "No Di. We will listen from hear. Jiju will stop if he sees you thinking you are not well"

"Haan you are right" said Anjali and both forwarded a bit so that they can hear their conversation.

NK though was confused but felt something fishy. Who knows may be the both siblings would breakout their deeds. They both started to hear conversation.

"What happened Bhai ??"asked Sheetal.

"Ask me what didn't happened ?? That Arnav cheated us" said Shyam.

"What ?? How ??"asked Sheetal..

"The sign which he did on that papers is a fake sign. I thought that if his sister will ask for sign, he will definitely sign it. But that Anjali, stupid lady said to him I needed the sign. What is the need to say him ??"said Shyam.

" Bhai. Seems like stars are not in our favour. See firstly we thought to take sign from ASR, convert this property to our name and threw them out. Then we thought to kill ASR's child who will be the heir of this property, but to our badluck, last minute, the juices were exchanged and that Khushi's child got saved , your child got killed. Now what we have to do ?? ASR warned me to stay away from his family. Thank god NK came and pulled him away from me otherwise he would have killed me that night " said Sheetal

"What ?? When ??"asked Shyam shocked.

"On the night incident happened when you were in hospital. He came to know it is me who mixed abortion pills in the juice. So he slapped me and warned me" said Sheetal.

Anjali looked at NK who nodded his head as yes.

Shyam fuming in anger said "How dare he to slap you ??"

"Bhai. I am sorry. Because of me you lost your baby" said Sheetal.

"Stop it Sheetal. I don't have any feelings for that baby or for that Stupid RS.. I never wanted a child from her. Who would love a limp girl ?? I have many of mistresses to enjoy my life...She was just my trump card to enjoy luxuries in this house.. But truth to be said Arnav's child to have luck just like father.. See when Arnav came to know about me everything, we tried to kill him faking an accident, he survived and turned into mentally imbalance.. Now his child too got saved Luckily. Until now Arnav is silent as RS is pregnant but now he won't. We have to do something " said Shyam.

"Ha Bhai. We have to........."said Sheetal and turned, saw Anjali who is at the door along with NK.

"Bhai. Bhabhi" said Sheetal. Shyam turned and looked at her.. From her face, it is evident she heard everything.

"Rani Sahiba "called Shyam and came forward but Anjali moved from there. NK gave an evil smirk to the duo stating that your game is over.
