ARNAV

I parked my car and headed inside the mansion, I bumped into Ayush on the way inside, it dint seem like an accidental bump, it was like he purposely came to bump into me.

"What?" I looked at him angrily, I was already pissed about a lot of things.

"Just a moment." He smirked as he did something on his phone and the next moment, my phone started beeping continuously, I pulled it out of my pocket and checked what was going on.

I opened my WhatsApp and saw the images Ayush had sent me, they of Khushi from today's shoot, how did he even get there? And when did he take those pictures.

"At least we can be sure we have our wives to ourselves, what about you Arnav? Your girlfriends is letting so many men touch her." Ayush said.

"You are the one that sent me the pictures before too right?" I looked at him angrily, what was he up to?

"Of course I did, just trying to make you realize that you chose a wrong girl for yourself and this family."

"She is the right girl for me and whether you want it or not, I will get married to her, you can't stop me from it." I grabbed his collar and looked at him angrily.

"As you wish Arnav, then we will see you become just like us, trap your dear beautiful wife inside the house so no other men would look at us. You have loathed us forever haven't you? But look at yourself, you are just like us all, you want to be in control you want to own her. Look at you hating us for the things you are doing yourself now." He laughed at me mockingly.

"Why are you even doing this? Following Khushi everywhere? Do you think this pictures will change my feelings for her?"

"No but they will make you realize that you are one of us and maybe for once, you will look at us as your family and nothing else, and not hate us because you are just like us."

"Get lost. I will never be like you." I pushed him away as I headed straight to my room, I could deny it in front of Ayush all I wanted, but deep down I knew Ayush was right.

Even though all this years all I was trying was not to be like them, I was somehow becoming like them, and I hated it, I hated how I was turning into a person I dint want to be.

The way I behaved with Khushi was totally unacceptable and I couldn't do this to her, I had enough chances to control my anger and myself but I let it go to waste, I could no more see myself becoming just like one of my family members.

Moreover, I couldn't see Khushi getting hurt because of me, I loved her a lot but I think my love came along with an unhealthy obsession which wasn't good for either of us.

The right thing to do right now would be to break up with her, I knew it would hurt her but it was for her own good, I dint want to trap her inside my house because of me being jealous and obsessed, but as much as I wanted to do the right thing, I loved her a lot, and I just couldn't bring myself to break up with her.

Instead of coming back home leaving her hurt at the shoot, I should have apologized, what the hell was happening to me? Why was I becoming like this? Why was it that at one moment I acted so stupid with her and then the other moment I realized it, why couldn't I just do the right thing for once?

I rushed out of the mansion once again, got into the car and drove to Khushi's house, I had to talk to her and apologize to her, I had crossed a line today.

Once I reached, I rang the doorbell and waited for her impatiently, Ananya opened the door and looked at me in surprise.

"What are you doing here?" She asked, she looked angry. Of course she had to be angry, she had talked to Khushi and made her realize her feelings for me and now I was behaving so stupidly.

"I want to talk to Khushi." I said.

"What's there to talk about Arnav? You know I thought you were a good guy and... what you did today was so wrong, creating drama in front of all those people, do you know how much it hurt her?" Imagine if Ananya was this angry on me, how angry was Khushi going to be?

"Let him in Ananya." I heard Khushi's voice.

"No! I am your best friend and I won't tolerate such behavior from your boyfriend." Ananya said.

"I am sorry Ananya, I might have behaved stupidly, but it doesn't mean I don't love her. I do, and maybe that's why I behaved this way." I looked at her sadly, she stared at me for a moment and then nodded as she finally let me in.

I found Khushi seated on the sofa so I rushed towards her, I fell down on my knees and looked at her apologetically, I don't know how many times I was going to repeat the same mistakes and how many times she was going to forgive me for it.

"Thank you for letting me talk to you Khushi." I said.

"I am still very hurt and disappointed Arnav. When you confessed your feelings to me, you knew who I was, you knew what job I did, if you knew that you weren't going to be okay with it, you shouldn't have even confessed your feelings in the first place." She looked at me sadly, I knew I had hurt her, only if I could explain my behavior which I currently dint understand myself.

"I know Khushi, please trust me when I say this, I dint do this on purpose."

"I don't know Arnav, I am just too hurt, I..."

"Please don't break up with me. Please don't leave me Khushi, I love you so much, half the reason I did what I did is because I love you. You know me well, you know I would never want to do what I did to you, please Khushi I..."

"I am not breaking up with you Arnav, why would you think that? I am obviously hurt but you do realize this is the first ever time that I am actually in love right? I don't want to lose it, please don't make me lose it."

"I won't, I promise I'll figure out a way to handle this situation, I am really sorry Khushi."

"Arnav trust me when I say this, I don't want to lose you, I don't want to break up with you so please, please don't do anything to make me do that."

"I won't, I'll try as much as I can and be the person I was when I met you. I promise."

"And you know, I will always inform you about who I work with and all, but it will be my choice whether to work with them or not, you can't decide that for me."

"I know baby, I know and I don't want to interfere with it, I just lost control on myself today, I promise it won't happen again today." Right now, my eyes were filled with tears, the mere thought of losing her was scary as hell, I knew if I kept on behaving this way, I was going to lose her one day, I dint want to lose her!

"Okay. Anyway can you leave now? I just need some alone time, I'll call you when I'm feeling better about this entire situation."

"You won't break up with me right? Promise me you will call soon." I looked at nervously, I hoped she wasn't having any second thoughts about this.

"I won't Arnav, I promise I will call you." I nodded as I stood up, bent over and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"I'll wait for you to call." I smiled faintly as I headed out.

"That's it? That's your reaction?" Ananya shouted at Khushi, I dint want to eaves drop but I was scared of what Khushi was going to decided so I leaned on the wall near the door trying to listen to their conversation.

"What do you want me to do Ananya? Break up with him?" Khushi asked in a defeated voice.

"No, he does love you a lot, but you know his behavior was intolerable." Ananya said.

"I can't blame him for what I asked for Ananya."

"What do you mean?"

"Remember that day at the club we were talking about love and stuff and I said I wanted a guy to love me, madly, crazily and deeply. I basically asked for a guy like that and Arnav is all that, and when I get what I asked for, you want me to complain?

He is troubled Ananya, given the kind of a family he has, I can understand his behavior so I am going to stick by his side and get him through it, he needs help, I will be that help. I am going to get my Arnav back, the one that I met and the one that I fell in love with, not this controlling and obsessive one." Khushi said.

"What do you want to do Khushi?"

"I think he needs to see a doctor and I need to find a good doctor." Khushi said. I was left shocked, not even surprised, did I really need a doctor? Did something happen to me? Of course something was wrong, my behavior was very wrong but I dint know it could be this serious. If Khushi thought I needed a doctor then maybe she was right, I too needed to find a doctor for myself, if he was going to help me not lose Khushi, I was ready to do anything it was going to take.
