Chapter 62: Chapter 62

Arhaan's P.O.V.

Khushi's so called father and brother kept giving me a pleading look only to get me utter, "And Kowshik, don't you dare repeating the same mistake. This time you two just lost the major shareholding position of your company. I don't know what will be the consequence if there happens to be any second time. And about the Orphanage, it's Khushi's only. Don't even go near."

Both father and son kept glancing at each other. I just started feeling disgusted. I mean shouldn't they at least say sorry for once for being mean to Khushi.

But no. They just looked sad as their company was going out of their hand.

Being unable to handle it anymore, I uttered with the same disgusted face, "Just get lost from here."

Giving me a fearful look, they got out of my cabin and I kept glaring at their way.

Right then my phone rang off and it was Vai. As I answered the call, he spoke up, "Did you hear Mr. Anas is shifting to abroad? You can use this chance. Talk to him."

Hearing Vai, I smilingly uttered, "I heard it, Vai. And I sorted it out. Let's both get home then I will tell you everything."

"That's great yaar. Okay then. See you soon." saying this, vai cut off the line.

I called Khushi but as expected she ignored the call. I was getting confused at her behaviour. She was being somewhat strange.

I called Api in the afternoon to know whether Khushi was home. Though I didn't ask her directly but she said that in her talkings. Hearing that, I felt relieved and concentrated on my work.

Completing my office work when I got back home, it was almost evening. Entering the house, I saw everyone was gossiping happily in the living room. Vai was also there.

Seeing me, Api spoke up smilingly, "Vai, get freshen up and then come here."

Nodding at her, I forwarded towards my room but not before sparing a glance at Khushi.

When I entered the house, she was gossiping all happily with everyone but now as I got here, she was looking all nervous.

What's the matter with her!

I mean if she doesn't get happy seeing me, it's okay but what's with her nervousness! She is surely hiding something from me. But why? And what is that?

While thinking all this, I got to my room. Getting freshen up, I got downstairs again only to find Khushi no longer there.

I looked all around and found her in the kitchen with Api. After sometime api got near me and giving me some snacks, she asked me in lower tone, "What's the matter with Khushi? Have you two quarreled or something?"

Hearing Api, I got shocked and looked at Khushi and felt like she was looking at me but as soon as I turned to her, she looked away.

"Talk to her, okay?" as api spoke up this, I just nodded at her and again turned to Khushi. And I felt like she was avoiding my gaze.

Api forwarded towards the kitchen again and Vai spoke up, "Now tell me. What did you do to them?"

I explained everything to Vai and vai spoke up then, "But you could have just left them with nothing. That's what they deserve."

"That's true vai. They deserve it. I just made the process a little slow so that I can make them watch their destruction helplessly little by little till the very end." As I spoke up this with a smirk, he uttered likewise, "That will be something worth watching, yaar."

Khushi's P.O.V.

From the time I understood, I was slowly falling for Arhaan, I started getting nervous.

The words and thought of Arhaan regarding love was still clear in my mind which was making me more restless.

I couldn't stop thinking about it and whenever Arhaan got near me, I kept trying to avoid his gaze somehow.

In the evening while gossiping happily with everyone, I kept looking at the entrance for Arhaan to get back home.

But when he did, the same thought came to my mind again only to get me nervous and I kept avoiding his gaze.

Arhaan got upstairs and api forwarded towards the kitchen to get some snacks for Arhaan may be.

After few minutes when I thought Arhaan would be downstairs any moment, I also got into the kitchen.

When Arhaan got downstairs, Api spoke up smilingly while forwarding the snacks to me, "Go, give it to Arhaan."

I kept hesitating only to get Api utter, "Khushi, what happened dear? Go"

After glancing at Arhaan, I spoke up, "Api, can you please go and give it to Arhaan?"

Api looked at me confusingly and uttered, "Khushi, any problem dear? Is Arhaan again troubling" but interrupting her at this point, I spoke up immediately, "No Api. It's nothing like that."

Api uttered again, "Then?" only to get me all silent. I mean what should I say to her!

I didn't know what Api got but she spoke up with a little bit of smile, "Okay, relax. I am going to give it to Arhaan."

As Api forwarded towards the living room, I kept staring at Arhaan and when Api got near him, he turned to me. I looked away at once.

Api came to the kitchen again and we prepared our dinner. At dining table I kept myself busy with Esha but I could feel Arhaan's gaze on me every few minutes but didn't dare to look at him.

After dinner, I got back to my room and said my prayer. I was thinking of going to bed soon to avoid Arhaan but by the time I finished my prayer, Arhaan was already sitting in the bed and staring at me.

As our eyes met, he spoke up in his casual tone, "Should I ask or are you going to tell me by yourself?"

I spoke up still avoiding his eyes, "What are you talking about?" only to get him uttered, "Khushi, look straight at me."

While trying my best to look normal, I turned to Arhaan but before I could utter anything, he spoke up, "Now tell me. What's bothering you?"

I uttered under my breath, "You." only to get him giving me a questioning look as he uttered, "What did you say?"

I got totally silent at that as he uttered again, "Khushi, I am asking you something. Why are being like this to me? If something is bothering you, you know you can share it with me. We agreed to be friends, remember?"

When he was saying all these, I was again avoiding his eyes but as he uttered the last line, I looked at him blankly as I thought in mind, "But I am not thinking you as my friend only now, Arhaan."

When Arhaan kept staring at me with an expectation of answer, I kept thinking should I just go ahead and confess my feelings to him.....
