Part 17:

"Why am feeling like this? And why is my heart beating like this? And my cheeks? Why are my cheeks burning and why are they so red?" Khushi looked at the mirror and touched her cheeks "Hhhh... am I blushing??" she questioned her image in the mirror "Of course you are Khushi... I think you became mad" she said in response to her question. "But what to do? When sir said that Arnav Ji will be mad knowing about my programme, I really felt shy. I don't know why but... I really felt..." Khushi smiled looking the mirror. Her cheeks turned into tomato red. Her heart rate is still in high. Suddenly she remembered that she didn't inform Arnav. She rushed to her cabin from washroom. She took the mobile out and dialled his number. But the call went unattended. Before she try one more time there was knock on her cabin. Keeping her mobile on her desk she asked the person to come. Its peon

"Khushi madam... sir is calling you"

Nodding her head Khushi took her notepad and mobile and left to Aran's cabin.

"Excuse me sir...may I come in?"

"Come in beta... I didn't call you for official meet. Come..."

Smiling little Khushi entered in the cabin. She was surprised to see all the Raizada women and her mother and Buaji are there in Aran cabin. She smiled brightly and took blessings from Dadi and Akshaya. When she is about take blessings from Anjali, Anjali stopped Khushi and hugged her tightly. Both remained in each other embrace. Both felt unknown comfort with each other.

"How are you Khushi Ji?"

"Ji I'm fine... please call me just Khushi. I'm younger than you"

Next she acknowledged her family's presences by holding their hands.

"Akshaya did you inform Arnav to come here?"

"No... I didn't get him on phone" said Akshaya

"Me either" Aran said and turned to Khushi "Khushi beta, did you talk with Arnav?"

Khushi looked at floor and nodded her head in no. Her cheeks started getting the color.

"Dadi... see... my Chote's bride is blushing. Oh my God you are so beautiful..." Anjali hugged Khushi sideways and laughed loudly making Khushi bent her head as much as possible

For the first time, Akshaya too smiled seeing Khushi. Dadi, who is observing Akshaya thanked god for the change.

Both Garima and Bua Ji also thanked DM, seeing their daughter happy.

"Fine... stop teasing my DIL... Khushi... our wedding planner sent some people here. They need some of our opinions about engagement. So, that's why we all are waiting here" Aran called reception and asked the receptionist to send them. After entering they wished everyone. They handed over a bouquet to Khushi and wished her

"Congratulations madam. This is from our madam. Madam, Mr. Raizada..."

"Thank you... Mr. Raizada is busy with his work. You leave your wishes with us. We will convey him" said Khushi thanking them. She received Arnav's bouquet and went to Akshaya.

"Madam... this is for Arnav Ji. As he is not here, I took on behalf of him. I think, you are the right person to take his wishes" Khushi don't know why, but she said what she felt right.

Everyone looked at Khushi surprisingly.

"First of all... it's not Madam... it's just Mom as Arnav calls me. Remember that... okay? And you are going to be his wife, so it's your right too... you did right"

Khushi smiled at her and took her blessings again. Aran, Dadi and Anjali looked at each other and smiled in relief. Garima and Bua Ji also felt relieved. After that small family scene, Khushi thanked the planners and went towards the couches and sat along with others.
