Part36 Plan Revealed

The dance rehearsal started. No need to say how the rehearsal would have been. Usually, Arnav and Khushi won't miss any chance to enjoy. The rehearsal hall looked fresh and brisk because of their knock-jokes. They teased each other...played with each other... the chance made them learn about each other more because they spent a full time with each other.

As Khushi said, she learned all the steps easily even though they are tough. Arnav demanded the choreographer to change them into easy steps. As there was no one to deny the great ASR, the steps got changed but Khushi taught him the same steps again and again and made him dance. Arnav learned the tough steps easily because Khushi was the one who taught him.

They were in WHAT SHALL I NAME THIS LOVE? sets in the morning and at the dance rehearsal hall in the evening. So the days would be engaged and blissful for them.

The Movie fair award function dates closed in. All the basic stage arrangements were done. Before the function day, all the participants were asked to do a rehearsal on the stage. So that, they can perform well on the function day.

Arnav and Khushi got their TIME of rehearsal two days before the function. They reached the auditorium in which the function was going to be held. At that time, Arnav received a call. He asked Khushi to go to the stage.

"Khushi, you go... I will come."

Khushi nodded ok and went to the stage. Arnav finished the call and got back to the stage. When Arnav entered the hall, he saw someone hiding behind the stage and observing Khushi. He slowly reached the man and clutched his collar from behind. The man got horrified at Arnav's sudden. He tried to get away from his clutch.

Arnav was confused, seeing his struggling. He just clutched his collar playfully. He didn't' expect him getting, horrified. He doubted him.

"Who are you?"

"I'm a stage organizer..."

"Why did you panic seeing me?"

"I just..."

That's when the man's phone rang. He gulped hard, looking at Arnav. Arnav removed his hand from his collar. The man left the place to attend the call.

"Haan, tell me..."

".................."

"I was watching them as you said. I will do the work as you want. When Arnav and khushi come to the center stage, the show light above their head will fell down on them. It will look exactly like an accident."

"............."

"ok...don't forget to give the balance amount..."

"............."

Cutting the call, the man turned around only to find Arnav with a wrathful gaze. He tried to run away from the place. Arnav again clutched his collar...this time strongly. His strong clutch told him he doesn't want him to slip from his hand.

Before the man showed his strength to Arnav, Arnav punched his face and the man fell on the chairs behind him. Hearing the noise, the program team reached the place. They stunned seeing the man bleeding as they guessed that he had been hit by Arnav. Usually, Arnav moves coolly with everyone no matter who they are. He never showed his HERO status to people.

"What happened, ASR?" the program organizer Nishan asked.

"He is planning to kill Khushi and me..."

"Whaaaat!"

"Yeah... someone is his crime partner. He just spoke to him on his mobile."

The team member, who was standing next to him, snatched his phone. The man tried to take his phone, another man pushed him down.

"The last call he got from is Rohit's..." the man said.

"We should hand him over to the police..." Someone said.

"Sir, please..." The man shrieked.

But no one cared about him.

"More than handing him over to the police, we should catch the main culprit. He is just an arrow... we have to catch the archer."

Nishan called the police who were securing the function hall. They rushed to the spot without delay. Nishan told them what he was trying for.

"Why Rohit wants to kill you both?" one of the policemen asked.

"He wants to marry Khushi for her properties. Khushi got to know his real intention and got away from him. He tried hard to get close to Khushi in many ways. It didn't happen. Khushi didn't give him a single chance to him to achieve it. And... we declared our marriage... that's why he wants to kill us as his plans didn't work." Arnav said.

The inspector removed his gun and kept it on his head.

"Call Rohit...keep one thing in your mind. You have a chance to become an approver."

The man nodded ok and called his number.

"Record the call..." the inspector ordered.

The man turned the recording button ON. Rohit attended the call.

"Have you finished the work...?" He asked excitedly.

"Yeah...just noted their dance position. The zoom light will fall on them in the right time..."

"That's good... Remember, if Arnav and Khushi escape alive at any cost... you should return the money I gave you."

The man looked at the inspector. He gestured to him to cut the call. He did the same and hand the phone to the inspector.

"This recording is enough for us to arrest him... Rohit will be behind the bars..." the inspector said.

"sir, shall I listen to the conversation?" Arnav asked.

"Sure..." the inspector gave him the phone.

Arnav listens to it and at the same time, he sent the file to his number, cautiously.

The cops took him to the station. Arnav followed them to file the case formally. Arnav asked her to be waiting for him. We can't say she JUST waited. Arnav came to the hall after an hour. That one hour would be like hell for her. She could not believe the man who was her friend once is a killer. Arnav came soon, finishing the formalities as much as possible. He knew what Khushi would go through. After all, they just escaped from the murder plan.

As he expected Khushi was crying. Arnav hugged her protectively which she needed the most.

Khushi hugged Arnav emotionally. Arnav reciprocated to her hug. He understood what she in undergoing.

"Khushi, don't worry...it's all over..."

"Why people are so cheap? Why they go to this extent?"

"It does nothing with you Khushi...it's all about their character...we no need to talk or think about it...ok?"
