*Flashback*

''Chor..Chor..koi hain..bachao..bachao..hamari madat karo..'' (someone Please help me out)

Khushi was shouting maniacally while running behind the taxi which she hired. But it drove off already with a super-fast speed, stealing all her luggage including all the necessary things she brought from India starting from money to appointment letter for her new job.

''Devimaiya..please meri help kijiye..'' she smacked her head and kneel down almost on the verge of crying. All pair of eyes was staring her as they stepped outside the airport exclusively the person gave a chuckle by her drama. He heard everything and was smirking big time.

She started crying like a 5 years old kid unable to gasp what she should do now. Her brain wasn't in terms to work. Arnav gave a loopside smirk, observing her non stop chatting with her favorite idol.

''I guess there is some signal problem that's why my voice not reach you haina...Devimaiya?'' She pouted gloomily and bite her nails scanning her eyes eagerly to find anyone who could help her.

''This girl is crazy?'' He was looking her unbelievably.

''Khushi..'' he called her.

''Kya hain..'' she snapped back. He could clearly imagine her face even though her back facing her.

''Devimaiya humne apki madat mangi the apne phir yeh Rakshas ko bhej diya..Apko aur koi nahi milta kya..?'' (I asked your help..you again send him in front of me..don't you got anyone else other than him..?)

''You could have send Salman khanji not him..'' she pouted.

He couldn't deny but actually he was enjoying her state.

''I m talking to you dammit! Could you hear me..?'' He was getting annoyed by her non stop chattering.

''Mujhe na apse baat hi nahi karni!..'' She folded her arms turning her back toward him.

''Excuse me.'' He raised his eyebrow and then flinched. Even i have no interest i was saying that..'' (His words cut by her)

''Why you always turn up like a filmy hero into my life..you are not my Salmanji..samjhe aap..'' She charged him. His jaw dropped.

''What the hell..In what angle you look like my heroine..give me a break..'' he said rolling his eyes and turn away.

''Haww!'' She growled and he smirked.

''Bahat maza aa rahi hain hamari yeh halat dekhke? Aur haso..hahaha...'' (you are enjoying seeing my state so much..laugh more..'' ) she mimicked his action and frowned.

''If you say so..i will definitely do the honor..'' He was laughing adding fuel to her anger.

Khushi(Gripping his collar): ''It was all happened because of you! I won't spare you Mister Arrogant raizada..firstly you kiss me forcefully and now mocking me? How dare you! I will broke your bones if you laugh again..'' She jump at him like a tigress. He was perplexed.

''What the..!'' He could only mutter his trademark phrase.

''Don't act innocent..its all your fault?'' She accused him.

''Excuse me..is it my fault that driver stole all your luggage and ran away?

''Phir bhi it was your fault..you know he take my salmanji poster also..kamina kutta..keede pade use..'' She cursed the thief and keep on blabbering.She looked at him pouting angrily.

''She look so cute..'' He wondered drowning into her shine eyes. She waved her hand and he brought back into senses and divert his gaze turning into Asr Mode again.

''Stop waste my time..gave me back my sun glasses..while travelling it remain with you..'' She didn't move and hence, he forcefully grabbed it from her hand. Her mouth widen in O-shaped.

''You know Whenever you are around me something or other problem comes up..you are MANHUS to me..'' she eyed him.

''Fine!'' He flinched and started walking out. ''You know what you deserve it..'' Saying this he took the trolley to unfilled his luggage and began walking away from her gaze.

''Wait! You can't go like this leaving a Bechari ladki in helpless state at a lonely and alien city like that..'' She made a baby face which surely didn't melt him.

''Bechari..Are you serious?'' he gave her 'I-don't-care' look and stepped out. She try to block him who was in not term to stop and waved her hand away from his shirt.

''I don't even have money to gave a rent and upon that I lost my appointment letter neither I know anyone here.. where I will go? Please do me one favor! Gave me your mobile so that I call my friend to send some money..'' She requested him.

''I don't care..You should think before using your big tongue! Get off me..'' He shot an angry glare. But she was not leaving his hand. He was getting frustrated and everyone glancing at them with awe.

''Alright I hold my ears..please forgive me but don't go leaving me alone I don't know anyone other than you..'' Getting highly pissed off by her antics, he shrugged her hand off and punch his mobile to call his manager to send car immediately before he lost his mind.

''Please don't go..'' She choked while clutching his shirt in her fist. He freed himself from her and went ahead once he got his car.

''Khushi Think! Think think!'' She was pressurizing her brain cells and saw his disappearing figure. She panicked.

''Right now only Laadgovernor could help you..do something!'' She was pacing to and fro but then a brilliant idea clicked in her innocent brain. Though it will only awaken lion in him. Probably he will eat her up after such terrific idea but does had other option rather than using her acting skills in a devilish way? She grinned sheepishly and patted her back before coming into action.

''Nahiii!'' She look here and there and this time shouted more loudly like an Abla nari to gather everyone attention on the middle of road.

''Nahi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'' She screamed placed her both palm on her ear.

''Ruk jayeye..Hame chodke mat jayeye...'' (Don't go leaving me alone) she suppressed her giggle and modulate her voice is a more dramatic style. He was astonished and turned around.

''Hum lut jayege.. barbad ho jayenge.. apke bina maar jayenge PATIDEVJI..'' (I will get ruined..i will die without you) She burst into cry and he was stunned by her act. He didn't expect she would do something like that.

''What happened..Why are you crying- Beta? A lady asked out of concern while everyone gathered at the spot by the scene occurring.

''What did you just said?'' Arnav asked unable to believe what she just said.

''How could you forget I'm your Dharam patni..'' she looked down pretending to blush. 'Yeh hamare woh hain..'' (He is my hubby)

''Dharam what?'' His eyes pooped out. ''Anyways whatever.'' He turned to leave as he had no useless time to waste on this girl but she held his hand.

''Kam se kaam hamre PHOOL KUMAARI ke liye ruk jayeye..'' Her voice was heavy with emotion when she careless her tummy gesturing everyone she is carrying his baby.

''Stop this drama khushi..'' He worn.

''Drama..you think I'm making drama..Hey Devimaiya what I would do to this Laadgovernor..''

''You couldn't leave your wife like that..she is your wife have some shame..'' Few men surrounded by him grabbed his collar when he was about to leave, stopping him.

''What bloody non sense is that, khushi?'' he clenched his fist and jaws.

''Are I'm making sense..Mr patidev! How could you forget our baby is on board..you only gave her name PHOOL KUMARI and now just for a small fight you are leaving your pregnant wife in the middle of road..how could you do this to your wife..'' She said in a convincing tone. Arnav glance at her unbelievably.

Khushi was somehow controlling her laughter seeing his red boiling face. She continue saying her story to Uncle's and Auntie's making a baby face.

''He is My pati parmeshwar and father of my Phool kumari..''

''What the hell..'' He was shocked as well as angry.

''How could you forgot your families had decided before you grow old you should get married and they selected me for you and then our PHOOL KUMARI came when we..'' She looked down shyly. Arnav was utterly taken aback hearing that.

''But then you started your non stop fight and torture m...'' Before she complete a word, a slap landed on his face.

''What the..'' He look back at the women who raised her hand and careless khushi face sympathetically.

''Say something more other than your famous what the..'' Khushi said.

''Itni pyaari bachhi ko chodke jane ki himmat kaise ki tumne..chalo maafi mango isse...'' (How dare you leave you wife like that..come on say sorry to her and sort out this matter..) An old man commanded eyeing him.

''Do hell with her..i don't give a damn..'' He retorted and turned to walk but they were not allowing him to leave.

''Beta..fighting is common in husband and wife but this is not the way to leave your wife like that..see how much she is crying..'' He growled by the lecture. While she was enjoying with amused expression. But least did she know her plan will sooner going to backfire on her.

He couldn't make any sense how to tackle this mad woman. Upon that her non stop drama increasing his temper beyond extent.

''Get out khushi..Just get the hell out of my sight..'' He just couldn't tolerate her anymore.

''Did you see how he scold me? He always been rude since the day of our wedding..'' She stiffen her sob.

''I repeat go away!'' Arnav gave a stern glare to her.

''Itni pyaari ladki ko torture karte hua tumhe sharam nahi ati..''(Don't you feel anything while torturing your lovely wife..'')

''Wife my foot..'' They were going to punch at him when in a sudden khushi stopped her.

''No...no..don't hurt my patidev..i will live somehow without him but I cannot tolerate anyone hurt my patidev..hum kis tarha jee lenge inke bina..'' (I will somehow live without him) Khushi exclaimed in a sad tone.

''See how much she cared for you..you should be proud getting her in your life..'' Another women commented.

''What the..Are you crazy..'' He will surely grew mad if he would be there for a microsecond more.

Khushi walked to him but maintain safer distance.

''Apka khayal rakheyega Patidev..Alvida..'' (Take care of yourself..good bye..) Suddenly a smirk played on his lips and he stopped her.

''Wait..'' A hundred watts smile appear on her lips. ''You are coming with me..''

''Sach arnavji..'' Her eyes twinkled innocently.

''Yup..'' She heaved and showed her 24 teeth. He walk closer to her and pull her closer by her waist, interlocking her fingers with his. Her eyes widen.

''Yeh kya batameezi hain..chodiye hame..'' (What are you doing..leave me) She then lower her voice looking at people around her.

''Always stay blessed like that..'' A couple commented before walking out. she waved his hand off and about to walk further when his sudden pull brought her back into his arm.

''Tamasha karne mein bahat maza ata hain na tumhe..Iss tamashe ko shuru tumne kiya aur ap isse khatam main karunga..'' (You like creating scene in front of all..wasn't you? Don't worry my wifey this drama started by you but it will be ended by me..)

Before she could use her brain to react, he clutches her both wrist and aggressively slammed her cheeks by his rough lips.

''How dare you!'' She fumed by his dare and was going to push him when he lifted her into his shoulder and started walking toward his car.

''My darling wife, this is just a tailor..Lets continue our further romance in the car..I will show a real husband in me there..'' She was terrified by his intense deadly tone. He kissed her fingers while dragged her toward his car.

''Hame kahi nahi jana apke saath...Bachao..Auntyji..Uncleji...'' (I don't want to go anywhere with you..help me..)

Everyone smiled looking at them. ''Bachaoo..Hamari shaadi nahi hui hain..'' (I wasn't married to him) she yelled trying to freed herself but no one heard her.

''If I m not wrong, few minute before..you are so desperate to be with me..wasn't you? She was struggling to get rid of him.

Pushing her inside the car, he shut the door and began advancing her. She began inching back, gulping in fear.

''So my dear wifey..you are carrying my baby right?'' He said in a cold husky voice. A shiver passed through her spine.

''Don't you dare come near me..i will shout?'' She spoke with authority.

''Go ahead.'' He held her arm pulling her closer by her waist.

''Even I have no interest to make myself pregnant by your child..you are so adamant to leave me so what could I do then?'' She snapped at him and wriggling into his hold

''Oh really? What you will do if some day you found you are carrying my baby? She felt his hot breathe on her face and titled her head to maintain some distance.

''You're so funny I feel like Rofling on the floor laughing..'' He greeted his teeth. ''I will carry your baby..?'' she laughed out loud.

''HUM MAAR JAYENGE LEKIN APKO APNE KAREEB KABHI ANE NAHI DENGE..APKE BACHHE KI MAA BANNA TOH BAHAT DUR KI BAAT HAIN..'' (I will die but never allow you get close to me..carrying your baby was beyond imagination..'')

*Present*

She shut her laptop once the reality began to sink her. Her own challenging words echoed to her.

''I should have died in hunger rather than taking your help???'' She cursed under her breathe.

''Hatred immense hatred that is all you gave me. Initially she hated him but now she hated herself too..''

Karan cleared her throat sensing her misery. She slanted her head when he walked toward her.

''Khushi you okay?'' He asked placed his hand n her head delightfully and take a seat beside her.

''Stop asking me again and again...How many times I told you I m fine?'' She jerk him hand away getting irritated and anger. He was not surprised by her sudden bitter reaction.

''Its okay relax..'' She sighed.

''Why you reveal your pregnancy news to him? Do you think he will change his mind?'' She glance at him before putting her attention into something specifically.

''He try to attempt your murder once..he could do again..''

''He will not dare!'' She said with her hand fist in a tight punch.

''How you be so sure about it..'' He asked doubtfully and she gave a bitter laugh.

''Because his baby reside inside me..he won't dare hurt his own blood..'' She replied with confidence.

''I don't think he care about anyone other than himself..By now they had completed all the rituals of marriage..'' he concluded and she was going to answer him back when in a sudden Arohi come out from her room breaking their attention.

''Di I m going out for a function..take care of yourself..yah?'' She announced while wearing her heals and stepped out.

''But where you going?'' She stopped her.

''Woh actually Akash's brother was getting married so I was going to congratulate him..he specially invited me in his wedding so I couldn't deny him..'' She concluded.

''Akash? Who is he?'' She again shot question.

''Oh please di I have no time for your queries.. it was already late..i will tell you after coming back...'' She rushed out leaving her in puzzle. This name seems familiar to her but she couldn't remember where she heard it.

******

Arnav slammed the brakes and turned to look at the mansion from outside which is fully decorated from fairy light for his grand wedding. His pupil fueled as he thought about khushi. Every breathe without her was suffocating him. He didn't know why he was feeling so strange within. He raced his steps while entering his mansion ignoring all the fatal thoughts about her. And there he saw his bride along with his sister.

''Lavanyaji..don't feel upset about your parents...they will definitely come after-all today was their daughter wedding..how could they miss it..?'' She sighed waiting for her father to answer her call but no response.

''Seems they stuck in traffic jam..'' Anjali try to cheer her mood, convincing her. The line was connecting but no reply from other end. The operator popped out requesting her to leave the voice mail.

''Papa..its me lavanya..I need to talk to you [sob] I was going to marry Asr..i need you papa [sob] Please come here once..'' Anjali gave her moral support.

''No di..papa will not come..i know him he is more stubborn like Asr..'' She look down controlling her tears.

However, in a sudden lavanya's eyes laid on arnav. All her sadness washed away. He wasn't looking organized. The moment Anjali lifted her head, she saw her brother and rushed toward him.

''Chotte where were you?'' Lavanyaji is so upset..you should be there on time at-least on your wedding day..'' She scold him and guide him toward alter. There was a aggressive fire coursing his veins as he move close to alter. Anjali made him seat beside his bride who already occupied space next to him. After few minutes, mantras started. But he didn't care to glance her once.

His eyes were fixed in front of the sacred fire. Lavanya placed her hand on his. She looked at him shyly, blinking her lashes and smiling at him. They were going to married within minutes but he was unsure. His heart was not at peace and restlessness was coursing him. He closed his eyes to suppress those emotions but then khushi face came before his eyes. Her infectious smile, her confession, her kissing him. He took a breathe. Her words was still plaing in his mind.

''I LOVE YOU ARNAV..I LOVE YOU..PYAAR KARTI HU BAHAT PYAAR KARTI HU... KHUDSE JYADA SABSE JYADA..'' When she said those words, he licked her lips and kissed her senselessly to seal the promise of their love to always being by her side. But everything was fake. Then why he feel so real? Why he unable to erase her out of his mind?

''Khushi..'' He utter her name and then his heart started beating violently. He could fathom something unknown. His hand moved voluntarily to hear his own erotic breathing.

The knot was now being tied by Anjali. Everyone was waiting eagerly for this moment but he remain stern. His heart was not allowing him to commit another sin. When he didn't move, Anjali came forward and made him stand, gesturing him to start pheres. Lavanya was waiting for him to continue but he was lost somewhere else. He had barely taken a foot when a voice echoed him.

''PAPA!'' A chocked voice of his baby echoed him. But he wanted to control himself, instead of being control of his own feelings.

''PAPA..'' He heard again and a tiny hand hold him. This was the first time he caught a glimpse of his shadow. Suddenly everything stopped around him. His eyes welled up unexpectedly hearing that.

''I NEED YOU PAPA..PLEASE HOLD ME..DON'T HATE ME'' More tears rolled down his cheeks. He felt a part of his body already extinct without her and if he didn't see her sooner he will go mad.

''YOU HAVE GIVEN ME SOMETHING WHICH NO ONE EVER GIVE ME..OUR BABY..'' His heart constricted with emotions.

With new determination, he rose from his place and turned to look at lavanya.

''I m sorry lavanya I can't marry you...'' he said decidedly. Lavanya was stunned hearing this.

''What?'' startled, she looked at him in disbelief..

''I can't marry you..I'm sorry..'' Guilt started consuming him.

''Asr..what's wrong with you..we love each other right..'' Tears was flowing unstoppable from her eyes.

''No this is absolutely wrong..i can't marry you lavanya..i can't keep you in dark anymore..'' he took few step back remove the knot tied by Anjali but she stopped him gripping his hand.

Everyone standing in front of them in surprise. So does Akash and Arohi was shocked to hear that.

''You can't go like this..we loved each other so much..!'' She said cupped his cheeks.

''No!'' He roared pushing her hand off touching him.

''I can't marry you, I never loved you shit I messed up all.. I never loved you..'' But the person standing exactly opposite to him wasn't pleased by his action.

However, a sudden slap landed on his cheeks. He took few step back recovering from the pain he received at the corner of his lips.
