-Second shot-

"Stop it!" Khushi shouted withdrawing her hand from shyam hold.

Ignoring weird and shocked glances of others she went near her babuji who was lying in bed "Babuji Do you trust my choice? She asked him holding his hands.

"Are you gone nuts? Why are you asking him? Didn't i told you he is wishing the same and he'll be fine once your marriage is fixed and now get engaged" buaji literally ordered her.

"I can't buaji" khushi told sternly.

Shocked seeing an angry khushi payal pressed her hand on her shoulder "Khushi.."

Calming her nerves khushi sat beside shashi and taking his hands on her "Babuji, I don't want to marry shyamji. You trust your daughter, right?" Seeing him noding with difficulty "Then please don't force me. Don't take stress" she pressed his forehead with affection.

While shyam stood like fish out of water, he thought it's easy to convince this family and marry khushi. Meanwhile garima stood as silent spectator as they're under her sister-in-law mercy now. She's the only close relation they have and garima didn't want to miss her.

"Shashi don't hear her words, she don't know what she's missing in her stubbornness. Shyam babua is a gem, we will not get a good groom like him for our sankadevi" Buaji tried to convince shashi who shakes his as no and khushi too object but buaji continued "Just think along with innocence she has set of antics which could piss anyone and look at bright side shyam babua promised to help us knowing our financial condition. He liked our sankadevi and from where we should get groom like him for her?"

"Buaji don't force khushi. Give her some time, it's her life. We should not force her" payal jumped in for her little sister.

"You keep quiet payalia. You don't know anything. Don't forget your marriage stopped because of her. Before she could do another stunt in your marriage we should marry her off" Finally buaji spilled her desperateness of marrying Khushi with shyam breaking khushi heart in process.

"You need not to show your highness for khushi Mrs. Madhumati" The loud authoritive voice of Arnav singh raiazada echoed in the small room of gupta house.

Hearing his voice two persons froze while others stood confused like ever.

Khushi being first shocked person, wondered how did he land here when he left for shantivan. She's sure now the truth will be out in few seconds, arnav can't sit quiet hearing buaji accusations.

While shyam sweated fearing for his life which is going to be finished soon. The only thing which favouring him was arnav didn't notice him or say he's showing his back towards entrance.

Arnav stood before buaji ignoring other members including shyam, still he didn't noticed him. His only focus was Khushi and her tear stricken face "Hereafter khushi will not be a burden on you. She has her own home and own family. She'll not interfere in your family matters" With the same intensity of anger he turned towards khushi "Pack your bags khushi. Take every single thing of yours, you are not going to stay here anymore"

Khushi stood flabbergasted seeing the happenings. She thought to calm him down "Arnavji..." Before she could control the situation buaji intervened.

"Who are you to interfere in our family matters? And how could you just order her to pack her bags? She is in her home, you're not her boss to boss around her in home too" Buaji said with gritted teeth.

"Yes am not her boss but Husband who has full rights on her. Got it"

"Arnavji..." She held his hands to stop him saying further.

Everyone stood open mouth trying to digest what they heard. How is it possible? How can an introvert angry man like arnav singh raizada will marry an extrovert​ chatterbox khushi kumari gupta? They both hate each other, aren't they? When it happened?

"What? When? Khushi is it any prank?" Payal asked coming out of shock.

In the meantime, silently shyam slipped away from there knowing he cannot win khushi from ASR for now.

Garima finally decided to break her silence "Khushi, what is this?"

"It is true jiji. We.. We're married" khushi admitted hung her head in guilt of hiding this truth from them.

"Hai..re..nandhakishore..what is this? Sankadevi tell me did he forced you to marry him? Or else why would you marry him when you hate him the most? I'll release you from this unwanted marriage!" Buaji shaking khushi for answers.

"What the!! Why should i force her when we love each other" words come out of his mouth in annoyance.

Payal ignoring his answer taking her hands in her "Khushi, tell me clearly what's all this? He's saying you both are in love but you hate him na"

"Nahi we are not hating each other. We are in love and married under inevitable circumstances. Trust me jiji, amma, buaji, babuji i really wanted to marry him with all your wishes but it just happened. Please will you all forgive me?" She asked with puppy face which melted everyone.

What can they do when everything finished already? They can't be angry with her for so long. At last only her happiness and her security matters. They know raizada's are nice and they love khushi too the most. Only problem is arnav anger and ego which hurts Khushi but now seeing him stood for her before her own family shows how much he loves her.

Buaji patted her head "Forgive me tiyaliya. I only look for your secure future not your happiness. I am happy seeing his love for you. Be happy betiya" shashi smiled in happiness.

"Did your family know about this beta?" Questioned garima eyeing arnav.

"No one knows. We thought to let you all know once payal marriage fixed" arnav replied.

Khushi scrunched her eyes remembering something "Arnavji, di fell down na. How is she?"

"I...give me my mobile khushi" he stammered at first remembering he forgot to check his di and panicked later. He came here to get his mobile which accidentally khushi took it with her but got distracted by the drama.

"What happened to anjali betiya?" Buaji asked seeing them panicking suddenly.

"She fell from stairs" replied arnav trying to contact aakash taking long strode to outside.

"Arey...nahi. She fell near stairs" khushi smaked herself for blunder.

Throwing an angry glare he excused himself, but garima stopped him and insists take khushi with him.

Speedometer in his car touched its full value while khushi who have phobia of speeding cars hid herself in his arms hugging him tightly.

In no time they reached shantivan. Arnav ran inside, khushi too followed him.

"Di.." he reached near her who sat in living room.

Kneeling down he checked her legs, "Nothing chotee, am fine. Brace got distangled" anjali assured him.

"But di.."

"Trust me, i am fine" Anjali smiled and just now she noticed khushi sat beside her.

"Khushiji...why you took stress? I am fine"

"Di.. can't i come to see you?" Khushi pouted making arnav smile.

"Haan baba..you can come here anytime"

Turning to arnav, she held his tightly "Chotte, woh...Do you tell me if i ask something?"

"Anything di..." He tightened his hold supporting her while others stood confused.

"When did you planned to disclose your marriage status?" Anjali asked with mischievous smile.

Khushi hiccupped, di knows how?? Arnav smiled knowing she found his secret as usual.

"Hello...hi...bye...bye... Your chotte is running away from engagement, you'll be grandmother when he plan and announce his marriage" Mami jumped in her usual mode.

"Arey..mamiji. You're outdated. Who knows soon you'll be a grandmother" Winked anjali.

Arnav whined seeing her teasing mode "Di..." While khushi started searching for a place to hide.

"Only if chotte agree to marry Miss. Kashyap which is no where to be near" nani sighed. Her only wish is to see her grandson marriage before close her eyes in peace.

"Nani, you're also old fashioned. You don't know these days youngsters are fast. They'll marry without letting family know and romance right under their nose" Anjali teased noticing the couple trying hard to keep their face straight.

"Hello..hi...that means arnav bitwa and Mis. Tiptop married" Mami widen her eyes grasping what anjali said.

"Nahi..." Three loud voice shouted at the same time.

Seeing the source of voice mami got confused not only she, nani and aakash also couldn't understand anything "Haain...what happened arnav bituwa, phatisadi, Miss. Tiptop"

"I and khushi are married" arnav told the truth seeing there's no way to escape and there's no point of hiding the truth when gupta's also know it.

"What...??" Mami jumped in shock, nani face glowed.

"Khushiji betiya is our bahu. Is it true?" Nani smiled cupping khushi cheeks. Khushi nods her head shyly.

"Waise, i came to know by your night adventures. You must lock the door before doing romance chotte, everyone will not sleep in same time. But i don't know how and when you both married" anjali winked mischievously and end with pout.

"You might be shocked knowing how our marriage happened. It is filmy like khushi" arnav chuckled remembering their marriage.

"Wow...tell me chotte" except mami everyone surrounded him for his flashback and Mami was still trying hard to digest the fact that her nephew is married.

"Why don't you ask this to khushi? She's the right one for telling you. Only a Dramabazz like her can satisfy you all" hearing him khushi slapped his arm playfully. While family awwed..seeing him smiling after getting her slap if it was before there must be earthquake by now.

"When we gone to nianital, now don't ask me when i took khushi with me. She dropped in car dicky herself. My car stopped half way, thanks to your khushi. There Khushi's half sister trouble wantedly landed with her. Her dress got stolen, someone exchanged her dress with bridal lehenga. We dropped in dhaba for lunch, seeing khushi in bridal dress group of people thought her as run away bride. We stayed there at night until my car repaired. Earlier the bride who exchanged khushi dress was actually a run away bride. Some goons from that bride family came to dhaba searching for that girl ended up kidnapping khushi thinking her as bride. In all this your khushi madam face also covered with dupatta, they are so close to marry her with that groom. She struggled to get away from them but when did her half sister let her in peace. I followed them and ended with big fight, the dhaba members thought we are lovers running away from them. They forcefully make me tie mangalsutra on her" arnav released his breath after detailing his marriage.

"It's too cheesy ASR" lavanya laughed imagining arnav in that situation.

"Why i am thinking there's more into this story?" Anjali raised her eyebrows in question.

"What?? after that nothing big happened. We realized we love each other that's it" arnav shrugged dismissed the topic.

Khushi eyed arnav lovingly. That day played before her eyes. Only she knows how much it meant to her, not only that day but previous night also.

"But di, if you know they're married before then why did you said like that in evening" asked lavanya.

Khushi frowned "What di said lavanyaji?"

"That i should wear red instead of blue"

Anjali laughed "Just to tease khushiji. It was hilarious to see your both expressions"

"Di..." Khushi whined hugging her.

Anjali who was excited till now got sad remembering something breaking her hug she held out her hands for arnav "Chotte... I don't know how to tell, i am feeling restless from morning. I don't why, i feel void, something is incomplete. I thought it's because of my worry on you. But even after overwhelmed hearing your marriage i feel something wrong gonna happen. I..please chotte make all things right. I don't want to see our family in misery"

"Shh...di.. Don't worry nothing is gonna wrong" arnav gave her assuring hug.

"Bye bye to Miss. Tiptop hello hi to phatisadi manorama" mami mumbled herself melting the atmosphere. 

"Nahi..hello hi to Khushi ASR mamiji" Lavanya joined hitting khushi shoulder playfully.

"Did khushi betiya family know about this? Why did you hide this from us? We're more than happy to accept khushi betiya in our family" nani asked dejectedly on missing his grandson marriage.

"Today only they came to know. When we returned shashi uncle is admitted in hospital and moreover khushi didn't want to start our married life without settling payal life as her first marriage was stopped because of us. And now payal liked one groom her marriage in cards" arnav said eyeing aakash from corner of his eyes.

"What????" Aakash shout confirmed arnav's prediction.
