Khushi lowered her eyes shyly seeing arnav's gaze. Arnav is mesmerised by her, in trance he walks towards her. khushi starts going backwards as usual and hit the wall. Slowly he cups her face by his left hand and moves his face close towards her their lips are almost touching. Both their hearts are beating fastly and an unknown anticipation filled them. Khushi unknowingly held his shoulder and brought him more closer, their lips start to contact each other.

A shrieking ringtone broke the heated atmosphere. Arnav started searching his mobile cursing the person who called him forgetting that the bluetooth is clinging in his ear. Khushi calmed her racing heart,

Khushi: Arnavji bluetooth is on your ear. Arnav nods at her and the press the button. Khushi ran from there smiling remembering the lost state of arnav.

Arnav: Hello, this is ASR speaking who are you? asked arrogantly but hearing the other side he changed his tone politely.

Person: I am radhika beta.

Arnav: Haan aunty. Did you settle there in your home? I thought you inform me before leaving.

Radhika: Sorry beta, you are sleeping when we depart from there. How are you?

Arnav: I am fine aunty. You could have stayed more time.

Radhika: It's ok beta. I am in Delhi only. I will visit you whenever you want.

Arnav: Sure aunty. He senses some hesitation in her voice so he encourages her to speak.

Radhika: Beta i don't know if you like it or not hearing what i am going to say. But as a mother it's my duty to tell you. I don't know what you decide about your future with khushi. But let me tell you khushi loves you beta so does you. Humans are tend to make mistakes. You made some mistakes in misunderstanding and she too does the same. But does not mean you both let your ego rule. Husband and wife relationship is one of the purest relationships. In this relation you don't have to hide your feelings from your partner. If your partner made mistakes then it's your duty to correct them vice versa. You can show all your emotions whether it is happy, sad, anger, pain, hurt, possessiveness and right to your partner. That is what you did unknowingly. You consider her as your own even before your marriage. So in that right you showed your pain, possessiveness and love in the form of forced marriage. Same goes to her she showed her rights on you by getting angry when you asked forgiveness. Why didn't you notice the girl who forgives anyone with a smile doesn't forgive you? It's all a part of her love for you. She is hurt by the scene she accidently misunderstood. She too thinks you as her own. May be she is stubborn in that. But rethink about it. How many days you both are going to be live like this? Your both happiness lies in each other. Life is very small beta. Don't waste your precious time by fighting. Just give her a chance that's all i request. If you think you can live happily with her and you need her then don't waste your time in anger. Stay happy beta. I hope you consider my advice. I want you both to be happy. I already said that you are no less than my son. So I want my son to have a happy married life. You are matured than her so please think wisely. Take care beta, said this cut the call.

Arnav stood there pondering over radhika words. What she said khushi misunderstand me? What is that? He forgets what Nk told him. She is saying she want both of us to happy that means khushi denied to marry rajiv. But she is also right if we both learned from the past mistakes then what is the use of getting angry and wasting their time. But if khushi asks forgiveness and want to start a new life with him then is he ready to forgive her and start a life with her. His family who knows about him fully also don't understand him why he did like that then how can he expect khushi to understand him when he didn't open up his feelings in the first place. After a lot of self debating he came to conclusion that he will forgive khushi if she wantedly live with him and open up her feelings also. No matter what he is not going to force her. Khushi came there with his breakfast.

Khushi: Come arnavji breakfast is ready. Arnav nods and started eating while khushi feeds him.

Arnav: You too eat khushi.

Khushi nods and after finishing breakfast she was nervously standing in front him fidgeting with her sari pallu. Today she is going to confess her feelings.

Khushi: Arnavji i want to talk to you, said nervously. Arnav nods at her somehow he guess what is going to come and asks her to sit down.

Khushi sit opposite to him in bed holding his left hand and takes a deep breath started talking. I know we don't have sweetful memories from the start; whenever we meet it always ended with a bittersweet note. But somewhere in my heart i started loving you arnavji. When diwali night you announced that you are going to marry lavanya that time i realised i want you in my life. But your actions somewhat give me an idea that you don't love a person like me. I know you don't love lavanyaji, you accepted for marriage to prove me that i mean nothing to you. I came to a conclusion we are not meant to be so agreed for marriage with shyamji whom stays as paying guest in my home. But later i came to know his true colours. I directly came to you to tell about him. You are in poolside but after seeing your worried face for me and your love for your di stopped me from informing you. I thought to give him a chance that's my first mistake. As soon as i came to know about him i should have informed it to you no matter what even if you don't believe me. After you broke up with lavanya i feel sad for her at the same time i am little happy that you are no longer in a relationship. I loved when you feel jealous of nanheji. Our equation changed slowly and I loved the change between us during jiji's marriage. I thought you will confess your feelings for me that day. I thought you wrote the note in mirror but i was wrong arnavji. I didn't expect shyamji to be there. He forced me to accept his love. I don't know what to do. I search you everywhere to tell this to you but you are nowhere to be seen. Suddenly you threatened me for marriage. You know if you asked with little of love I could have agreed instantly. I dreamed that day could be the best day of my life when you could tell your feelings to me but it turned to be disastrous. In our marriage period, all I could think was what made you change your mind suddenly within one hour. After you told the reason for our marriage, the only thought I had to clear the misunderstanding somehow. I cannot stand hate in your eyes for me. I want only love in your eyes. The second mistake I did is to ask help from shyamji. He told me he will prove my innocence in front you like a fool I trusted him. *sigh* When I got to know you are kidnapped I feel I am going to die, said cryingly.

Arnav wipes her tears and told her not to cry and their bad days are gone.

After seeing you only my breathe came. After a lot of struggle I found you and rescued you. That is the worst time in my life until you're in coma. I cannot able to go through the pain of losing you once again arnavji. I LOVE YOU arnavji I want us to start a fresh, saying this hugged him tightly. Khushi senses arnav didn't hug her back. So she breaks the hug confusedly eyeing him.

Arnav: What did you misunderstand about me? asked calmly. Today he need all the answers, he is fed up of hide and seek their feelings and some truths. Already their game cost them enough so he don't want to take risk.

Khushi startled by his question because she thought he doesn't know about her misunderstanding.

Khushi: Woah....I heard yours and mamiji conversation partly and misunderstood it.

Arnav: When? And it clicks him when once Nk told him to clear this misunderstanding but he is in guilt didn't clear it with khushi. He decides to clear it now. He opens his mouth but khushi interrupts him,

Khushi: I know it is a misunderstanding. I am sorry for that arnavji, because of my misunderstanding i didn't give any damn about you, said in a regretting tone. After that only I realise how much you suffered by misunderstanding me. I can't able to take the MU for 2 months but you live it with 6 months. And I want to share something with you, said stammeringly. Arnav encourages her,

Khushi: Arnavji I don't know how our divorce news went to media. We came to know about radhika aunty during picnic. She asks my hand for marriage. But I did not agree for marriage that time arnavji. After the news went air you didn't turn up so I thought you are ok with my marriage, said biting her lips. In that anger I said ok for marriage. She hurriedly continues, it's just my anger arnavji. Even if your accident didn't happened then surely I am not going to get married to another man other than you. I ONLY LOVE YOU...arnavji. Please forgive me....said with puppy face.

But arnav keeps silent and staring at her. Khushi grew restless seeing him keeping mum. Arnav keeps thinking something,

Khushi: Arnavji....called him hesitantly keeping her hands on him.

Arnav: I need some time khushi. We both misunderstand each other not trusting others. We both need to work on trust issues first. Let's take one week in knowing others later we can decide your future, said calmly.

Khushi: Ok arnavji...Thank you for forgiving me and decide to work on our relation. I'll not fail you, said chirpily went to her original form. Seeing her all happy and charming arnav smiles at her and bend his head down and kissed her on cheeks. Khushi bend down her head in shy and hugs him finally.

PRECAP: ASR face off with ASR.
