After a five minutes, they reached a hotel. They both went near reception and enquired for a room.

The receptionist said" Sorry sir, only room is available"

Arnav looked at Khushi who is standing confused.

"Khushi. Are you ok with it ?"asked Arnav.

She don't know what to say and stood there.

"Mam. Say quickly. Otherwise we will allot this too if anyone comes"said the receptionist.

Khushi nodded her head. The receptionist gave them keys enrolling their details.

They both headed towards their room. They kept their things there. It is already 8.30 pm. Both got freshup.

They are going to order for food when the doorbell rang. Arnav opened the door and found the manager standing.

"Sorry to disturb you sir. Today there is an anniversary function of a couple on our hotel. We arranged it in the back side garden. So we are inviting all couples in our hotel. So, plz you too come with your wife"said the manager.

Arnav and Khushi looked at each other when he mentioned Khushi as his wife. Arnav felt good while Khushi nervously good.

They both agreed and went to party downstairs. They congratulated the couple. The couple cut the cake and the function started.

All the couples started to dance. But Arshi is just watching them dancing. Arnav too wanted to dance with Khushi but he can't ask. But soon manager came near them.

"Sir.plz you too dance"said Manager. Both looked at each other.

"Ofcourse"said Arnav and extended his hand to her. She hesitatingly gave him her hand.

They both started to dance looking into each other eyes. Their trance is broken by Arnav's phone. Both aparted.

Arnav moved aside talking in mobile. It was from Akash.

"Bhai. Where are you ? Why din't you still return back ?"asked Akash.
Arnav explained what happened.

"Are you ok ? Nani is worried for ypu"asked Akash.

"ya I am fine"said Arnav.

"And Khushiji."

"ya. She is fine too"

"What is the noise behind bhai ?'asked Akash.

"There is a party going here. All the couples are dancing'said Arnav.

"Did you dance with Khushiji"asked Akash naughtily.

"Ha. But your phone call disturbed us"said Arnav.

"Sorry bhai. Bhai I think it is the right time for you to propose Khushiji."said Akash.

"Really "asked Arnav not sure of the situation

"Yeah bhai. You propose her. "said Akash.

Arnav saw Khushi coming near to him so he said" Ok. Khushi is coming. I will talk later. Say Nani not to worry about me"

Akash disconnected the call and turned only to see an angry Nani.

Khushi came near him.

"Akash called me. Nani is worried for me"said Arnav. She just smiled to him nodding her head

"Shall we go ?'asked Arnav.

"Arnavji. Can you do me a favour ?'asked Khushi.

"What ????'asked Arnav confused.

"Actually my phone is switched off. So if you give your phone, I will talk to my parents. They will be worried for me "said Khushi.

"Ok."said Arnav handedover the phone and went from there.

Khushi called her father and informed to them. Shahsi and Garima who were tensed about her felt relief.

Later Khushi gave back the phone to Arnav. Arnav saw a person who is well known to him and they both started to talk.

Khushi feeling all bore went to other side. After sometime, Arnav came there looking for Khushi. He saw her sitting at the fountain.

He went near her and called.

She looked at him and said "Arnavji. Shall we move to room ?"

"Before that. I want to say something to you Khushi"said Arnav. Khushi looked at him confusingly.

"Khushi. The matter is........."stammered Arnav.

"Say naa Arnavji."said Khushi.

Arnav stood still not knowing how to say.

"Khushi. I am not soo good at words to express. But when the first time I saw you, I was attracted to you. I felt a feeling until now I din't felt for any other girl. I want you to be always by my side. I can't see you in pain. I want to keep you always happy doing world upside down. And the most thing is I can't see tears in your eyes. If it is called love, then I LOVE U Khushi. I promise I will keep you always happy whole life"said Arnav.

Khushi stood there dumbfounded. It took time for her to register his words. She never expected Arnav will propose her. though she likes him, she is still in confusion to name the feeling. She din't know to feel happy or nervous.

She came out of her trance and looked at Arnav who is looking at her.

" I know Khushi. You must be shocked to hear this. I know you need time. Take your own time. But I love you a lot"said Arnav.

"Shall we move"said Arnav.

Khushi nodded her head and they both moved towards their room.

That night is a sleepless night for both the souls. One is confused by her feelings and other thinking about the answer.
