ARNAV'S POV
I was talking on the phone in our parking lot. I was giving instructions to Aman regarding the boarding school facilities. I never thought that she will skip the exam. So, I didn't take any admission in the boarding school earlier. You will think then why I am so eager to send her away to the hostel. It is necessary otherwise, she will think that every time she does some mistake and I will forgive her. I heard Aman's continuous calls from the opposite side. What the! Again I lost in my thoughts due to her. What is happening to me? I don't know. I immediately cut the call and walk towards her. She was looking like a cute little butterfly in her frock.
(Khushi was wearing this)
But her cute little eyes are teary. Her little button nose is red due to her crying. I know I am the reason of cries. But I can't do anything. I walked towards the car and seated behind the wheels. I saw her looking at the house and garden longingly. I call her. She immediately enters into the car and seats beside me.
Without giving attention to her sad face I start the engine. This is going to be a new journey in her life. She needs to be independent. She needs to understand that I will not be always there for her. I also have my own life and dreams rather than taking care of her. Maybe this distance will be a turning point in both of our lives.
Boarding school is in the outskirts of Delhi. We need to travel for at least 2 hours. She is looking outside through the window. She not even glanced at me once. I know I am being harsh on her. But if that friend of her's was not in the picture still I would have given her a chance. But that brat spoiled the little trust I had on her.
THIRD PERSON'S POV
Khushi was looking out of the window from the time they started their journey. It had been almost an hour passed since they started their journey. Both them didn't even utter a single word. After a few minutes, Arnav stopped the car at a hotel in the highway. Arnav opened her side of the door and she gets out of the car. Together they move towards the hotel by Arnav holding her hand like always. After they enter inside the hotel a guy, maybe the manager of the hotel, ran towards them. Well, who doesn't know ASR? Except for some rare species like NK.
They got a corner table for themselves. Arnav ordered food for them. All this time Khushi was silent and looking at her hands that is placed on the table. Arnav didn't even show any courtesy to start the conversation. Within a few minutes, the food arrived and the waiter served the food. After that Arnav started eating. Khushi was all the time looking at her plate. Arnav noticed this.
Arnav: Bacha, stop playing with food and eat fast. We need to leave soon, otherwise, we will be late to reach your hostel.
She nods her head without looking at him. She ate few morsels and got up for the wash. He kept mum and didn't force her for eating. He also finishes eating and wipes his mouth with a towel and paid the bill. By that time she was back. They again started their journey.
After one hour they reached their destination. Both get out of the car. Khushi still not looked at him nor at her surroundings. She was just like a lost kitten. Arnav had taken her admission in the main branch of Khushi's school. Aman has already completed the procedures within these few hours. Khushi slowly raises her eyes looked at the surroundings. She got admission in the Gurukul Boarding School. One of the most reputed educational institutions in India were children's of richest families are studying.

GURUKUL BOARDING SCHOOL
Immediately a person who looks like a staff of the school came towards them. Arnav told him that they want to meet the Dean and that person leads them to Dean's room through a corridor.
Arnav holds Khushi's hand and starts following that man. When they reach there Dean welcomed them. Arnav told her to greet the Dean and she did as he told. Within half an hour Arnav talked with Dean regarding the reason for the change of school at mid-semester. She doesn't know what conversation they had. She knows that he will not talk about the truth. Because it will spoil his reputation according to him. He signed all the documents as her guardian. Dean and Arnav shake hands and they started leaving. Dean also wished her "Welcome to Gurukul" which fall in her deaf ears.
The same staff carries Khushi's luggage from the car and leads them to the girl's hostel. Arnav can't enter girl's hostel, so he stops at the entrance. He walks towards the office of the warden which is outside only. She follows him. He introduces himself and her to the warden and clears the formalities. Warden gave a small smile to her and patted her head. After a small talk with the warden, they walk towards the exit. He drops her at hostel entrance. Khushi also stops beside him. She looks at him with an expectation that at least now he will treat her well and give a proper bye. But she forgot the fact that she is expecting something from the wrong person.
Arnav: Bacha, I hope you will not create any problems here. I am warning you if you create any problems here your next destination will be abroad.OK.
Khushi: OK (she replied in a painful voice).
Arnav: You have to concentrate on your studies rather than wasting your time with your so-called friends.
At that time his phone starts ringing. He attends the call and passes the mobile towards her. She brought the phone towards her ears.
Khushi: Hello ( in a feeble voice).
Daayi Maa: Khushi baby, did you reached your hostel.
Khushi: Haan (Yes) Daayi Maa.
Daayi Maa: I had called you on your phone, but you didn't attend it. So, I called on Arnav's phone.
Khushi: My phone is in my bag Daayi Maa. I didn't hear your call. Sorry.
Daayi Maa: It's ok baby.
Khushi badly needs her Daayi Maa now. She wants to hug her Daayi Maa and wants to sleep in her lap forgetting all worries. But unfortunately, she can't even see her Daayi Maa from now on. She doesn't even know when will she meet her Daayi Maa again.
Daayi Maa: Aap theek tho Haina na?
( Are you ok?)
Khushi: (by controlling her tears) Hamein kya hua hai? Hum bilkul theek hai. She said with a shuddering voice.
Daayi Maa knows her Khushi baby is not fine. She wants to eliminate her Khushi baby's all pain. But she is helpless. She can't even properly show her care and love towards her Khushi baby.
(What has happened to me? I am perfectly fine).
Daayi Maa: Aap ne kuch khaya?
(Did you eat anything?)
Khushi: Haan (Yes) Daayi Maa.
Daayi Maa: Khushi baby, aap chinda math kijiye sab theek ho jayega? Apni Devimayya pe bharosa kijiye.
(Don't worry Khushi baby everything will be fine soon. Trust your Devimayya).
Khushi tries to control her tears. She doesn't want to cry but tears automatically start flowing from her eyes.
Daayi Maa: Promise me that you won't cry any more Khushi baby.
Khushi promises her Daayi Maa that she won't cry anymore. If only Daayi Maa knows if stop her cries it will create a more adverse impact on her Khushi baby than crying.
Arnav takes his phone from Khushi's hand talks to Daayi Maa that he is going to return now. If she wants to talk to Khushi she can call on Khushi's phone. They disconnect the call after talking about Arnav's return.
Arnav turns towards Khushi and starts speaking.
Arnav: OK bachha. I am leaving now. If you need anything call Aman. Okay?
Khushi: Haan.
Khushi nods her head. She expected a hug or at least some nice talk between them. But nothing happened. He gently pats her head and walks away without a proper bye, without any concern for that poor soul.
Khushi longingly looks at him till he exits Gurukul with his car. She ran towards her room unable to control her tears.
