~ Withered with Hurt ~

Part Seven

That is, RESPECT towards Khushi from Arnav's side and SELF CONFIDENCE on her own self from Khushi's side..

" Di, where.. Where is Khushi?" Arnav asked impatiently to Kuhu who was looking behind him..

"What are you talking about mamaji? What trip? What enjoyment?" Arnav asked unable to understand what his mamaji was talking about and more precisely unable to stand the cold stare he is sending towards him..

From the point Manohor is seeing the whole fact, makes Arnav is cheater in the relationship, he is no better than Arvind Malik or Shyam , indeed..

" Chotey, I want to know why you did not came back home last two nights?" Kuhu asked straight looking at Arnav's eyes..

Arnav was about to protest Saina's false allegation, but Khushi's next words, stab him hard, "Saina is right..They both need rest.. . Let them be.. Kuhuji, Why don't we talk after your Chotey and our guest get freshen up and have sufficient rest, after the tiring night they had spend? "

And the worst part was, not for one Khushi gave a glance towards her husband who was standing in the living room with longing in his eyes, wanting nothing but a little bit of attention from her..

Indeed, the air of Shantivan has been changed..

It's for good or bad? Only time can say...

To be continued....
