Khushi looked at Arnav confusingly who was smiling at her after getting a slap from her. His next words made her feel bad for slapping him.

"Do you think my love for you is all about silly kisses and all?" he asked painfully.

"I'm... I'm sorry" Khushi stammered.

Arnav nodded no.

"I wanted you to do this long ago. I wanted to be slapped by you for deceiving you, Khushi"

"Arnav, I know you didn't deceive me"

"Does it make difference in our lives?"

"Nothing can change our lives, Arnav"

"We can bring changes if we want"

Khushi looked down.

"Tell me, Khushi... Don't you want our lives to get changed?"

"Please don't ask me such questions, Arnav"

"Why? Can't you answer me? Or, can't you avoid me?"

"Why are you doing this, Arnav? Try to understand. I really don't want to hurt you..."

Cutting her,

"Why? Why don't want you to hurt me? It's because I'm already hurt?"

"I know you... but I really can't understand why you are here now"

"Relax..."

Taking his mobile, Arnav called Suman. He attended the call.

"I reached... Come fast, AMAN" Arnav said looking at Khushi who was shocked hearing, Suman's REAL name.

How did Arnav know about Suman's real name? Who could have told him that? That was when something stroked in her mind. Arnav talked with none other than Suman himself. What did that mean? Did Suman tell Arnav anything? Did Suman know about Arnav's arrival? Was not he waiting for his friend? Was the friend Arnav?

Arnav smiled, seeing her confused face. At the same time, Suman arrived.

"Hi..." Suman smiled.

"Hi, SUMI," Arnav said which surprised Khushi more.

"Khushi, let him in..." Suman said.

Arnav got inside. Khushi clutched Suman's hand and pulled him back.

"You said your friend is coming?" She asked whispering.

"Yeah... My friend came" he said pointing at Arnav.

"From when Arnav became your friend?" she asked gritting his teeth.

"From today morning"

"What does that mean?" She frowned.

Shrugging her hand, Suman walked to Arnav.

"Khushi prepared Biriyani for you. She said you like Biriyani very much"

"Did she?"

"Often... Whenever she prepares Biriyani, she says, Arnav likes Biriyani very much" Suman smiled at Khushi who was glaring at him.

"Really?" Arnav smiled.

"If she starts talking about you, she won't get bored"

"It seems she didn't change a bit" Arnav smiled.

Khushi could not understand what was happening.

"Sumi, I think we should not keep Khushi in the dark anymore," Arnav said smiling.
