Part 16 Problem Solved

Lavanya was looking at Khushi's facial expression who was shocked seeing the suicide attempt news of Akanksha. She was admitted to the hospital. Press reporters surrounded crying Akanksha with mikes, asking her about the suicide attempt.

"Why did you take such a decision?"

"What made you feel like leaving your life?"

"Who is the reason for your heartbreak?"

Akanksha's mother came in between the mikes.

"Stop asking questions. My daughter is already a week. Let her take rest."

Akanksha stopped her.

"Let me speak..."

Again, all the mikes extended towards her.

"I love Arnav but he refused to accept my proposal. I don't think there is a life without him. I love him so much." She cried closing her face b her palms. There was a Band-aid on her wrist.

"For that, what's the necessary to cut your nerve? Am I not here for you?" Akanksha's mother also cried.

Khushi closed her eyes, feeling sad.

"She is acting. Don't trust her Khushi." Lavanya said.

That's when Khushi got a call from Aman. She knew why he is calling. The shooting must be canceled. How could Arnav come to the spot today?

Before Aman said anything,

"There is no shooting right?" she said.

"Why Khushi?" Aman questioned her.

"Arnav got stuck in something..."

"It doesn't matter at all," Aman said laughingly.

"What do you mean?"

"Arnav will handle it. I just called you to ask your permission."

"What permission?"

"In this movie, I used your real parent's names to the reel parent's characters."

"Yeah, I knew..."

"As this is their debut movie, they want to get introduced with the same names. What say?"

"What's there to get my permission? If they want to be with my parent's names then let them."

"Done..."

"Aman..."

"Yeah..."

"I'm watching news of Akanksha's suicide attempt. It does not seem easy. How could Arnav handle it?"

"He will handle it very easily."

"How?"

"He is going to marry her..." Aman laughed.

"Whaaaaat!" Khushi exclaimed.

"Relax Khushi... you will get to know that in a few minutes. Come to the shooting spot. Don't waste your time on the unnecessary drama."

He disconnected the call. Khushi looked at the receiver and then the TV. All the channels are repeating the same crying sequence of Akanksha which made Khushi upset.

RM

Arvind and Ratna were also in front of the TV worriedly.

"Don't know how Chotte is going to handle this issue," Arvind said rubbing his forehead.

"I too don't know HOW...but he will..." Ratna said.

"I don't think this girl really loves Chotte." Arvind frowned looking at the TV.

"LOVE?" Ratna chuckled.

Suddenly the hospital premises got heated up. Arnav Singh Raizada was entering the hospital. Everyone who was watching TV stiffened.

"Ratna, why the hell is he going to meet her now?" Arvind exclaimed.

At the same time,

"Khushi, look... ASR is going to meet Akanksha." Lavanya shouted.

Khushi saw Arnav was getting surrounded by the media people. He headed towards Akanksha's room, not answering the reporter's questions.

Akanksha who didn't expect his arrival got stunned, seeing him. Composing herself, she closed her face like crying.

Arnav came to her and sat beside her. All the cameras were on them.

"I'm sorry. I didn't understand the depth of your love. I didn't expect you would even decide to die."

Akanksha smiled at him as her plan worked.

"I'm happy that you finally understood me," she said hopping inwardly.

"Yes... I don't want to waste time anymore... not even a single minute... "

Akanksha and her mother looked at him confusingly like, what he is going to do?

"NK..." Arnav extended his hand towards NK.

NK kept a mangal sutra on his palm.

"Let's get married," Arnav said holding the mangal sutra in front of her neck.

Akanksha was looking at him as if he is a ghost.

More than Akanksha, Khushi was in extreme shock. What Aman said is true? Is he going to marry her? "What the hell is he doing?" Arvind shouted whereas Ratna was keenly looking at the TV.

Arnav's next stance made them frown.

"I just want you to quit the CINI field. I know you will definitely do that for me because you are a girl who is ready to die for me... right?" Arnav asked her.

He tried to tie the mangal sutra in her neck. Akansha's mother snatched it from his hand.

"Why should she quit the film industry?"

"Because I want my wife to be with me all the time. Akanksha would also like to be with me because she loves me. Am I right?" He asked her.

Akanksha gulped hard, looking at him.

"She doesn't want to marry you. She doesn't love you at all." Akanksha's mother shouted.

"Don't lie... she tried to kill herself for me."

"Doesn't mean, she can quit acting."

"I won't care what you say. She loves me and I will marry her right now." Arnav tried to snatch the mangal sutra from her hand.

"Tell him you don't want to marry him." She hit Akanksha's shoulder.

"Arnav, we will talk later," Akanksha said, running her eyes on the media people.

"Why? When the matter became public, we should take decisions in front of the public. Am I right?" Arnav asked the press people.

They said YES...YES...and started to arrow questions towards her.

"ASR is right madam..."

"You tried to commit suicide. He is ready to marry you now then why are you hesitating?"

"It seems ASR is not at all at fault."

Akanksha was suffocating.

"She is not owed to answer you... get out...she won't quit acting... That's final." Akansha's mother shouted again.

"Then why did she cut her nerve?"

Arnav took her hand. Akanksha tried to pull her hand off but she couldn't. Arnav removed the Band-aid. There was just a slight scratch. Arnav showed her hand to the camera. The media people started murmuring.

"So, this is nothing but a drama?"

"She is jealous because she didn't get a chance in his new movie. That's why she is playing such a nasty game."

"ASR should have known about her filthy mind already. That's why he had refused her proposal."

Akanksha was looking down, couldn't face them.

"I thought your love is true and deep... but... you cheated me..."

Saying that Arnav left the place with NK.

Akanksha's mother sent all the media people out forcefully.

People who were watching the LIVE scene bewildered. Arvind looked at Ratna proudly with a smile...

At the same time, Khushi bit her lips couldn't control her smile...

"Shall we go to the shooting?" Lavanya asked.

Khushi nodded yes.

"Get ready... your hero will be waiting for you."

Khushi glared at her.

"I mean your movie hero..." Lavanya chuckled.

Khushi ran to her room, smilingly.

To be continued...

Next update on Inkitt

Is he playing?

Arnav and Aman hugged laughingly.

"You have rocked, ASR. I didn't think you would handle the issue so easily." Aman said.

"I was really scared when he asked me to bring mangal sutra... I thought his life is going to end miserably." NK countered grinning.
