After 2 months,
It was a fine morning in Shantivan, everyone was having their breakfast. Suddenly they heard a 3-year-old boy come running and shouting, "Maa." As soon as he reached the dining table he hugged Anjali tightly and said, "I missed you Maa." Anjali smiled at the boy ruffled his hair and kissed on his forehead and said, "I missed you too Bacha."And then Arnav spoke, "How are you Champ?", the boy then looked at Arnav and said, "I'm good Mamu and how's my princess?" Arnav smiled and replied, "Your princess is great like always. Come sit and have your breakfast." Arnav then yells for Khushi, who was making Hot chocolate for the kid to be precise her prince like they prefer to be called. As soon as she heard Arnav, Khushi entered with a tray in her hands containing Hot chocolate. She placed the Hot Chocolate in front of the kid and said, "Good Morning Prince. How are you?" He kissed her cheek and said, "Good morning to you too princess and I'm great like always" making Arnav burn in jealousy. Arnav said, "Khushi come sit and have your breakfast." Khushi was about to sit beside her dear husband but before that, she heard a man in his early thirties saying, "Choti, how are you?" As soon as she saw him, she ran to him and hugged him. Then she broke the hug and said, "I'm good how are you? It's been so long you paid a visit. You daily drop Ansh here but you never come inside. Don't talk to me" folded her hands and turned her face away. Arnav who was standing behind his wife said, "Hey Raj, I hope you won't have a tough time handling your Choti."Raj smiled and said, "No bro, because today I'm here with Choti's favorite Jalebis from Lucknow" and that managed to bring a smile to Khushi's face. She immediately turned towards him and asked, "Now give me my jalebis" Raj smiles at her desperation and then says, "Only if I'm forgiven", She murmured, "Fine" and took and box from his hands. And Arnav led him to the breakfast table. They all settled and had their breakfast.It's been 2 months since Shyam is away from their lives and everything is changed in Shantivan. Change for good. Nobody asked about Shyam because they knew Arnav will take care of him. Anjali's divorce was filed and it got over within 15 days. First, 1 month was very difficult for everyone with Anjali being gloomy but then with Khushi being around her Sister-in-law and helping her, slowly Anjali started moving on and concentrating more on her baby. Slowly after a month, Khushi took Anjali to temple for a change of environment and that's when Anjali bumped into a 3-year-old boy Ansh. Ansh Kundra, son of Raj Kundra. Raj Kundra was a widower whose wife died after giving birth to Ansh. Raj who was a doctor by profession managed both his child and his profession and silently mourned over his wife's death. He loved his wife a lot, they had a runaway marriage, so there was no one to take care of the little kid. Though he appointed a nanny for the kid, he used to take care of the kid. That day Ansh came to the temple with his Nanny, he comes to temple because his father once said that his mother used to visit temple frequently and loved Devi Maiyya a lot which is why now she's with her. So, even the little kid comes to visit Devi Maiyya whom his mother loved dearly. Anjali felt an instant connection with the boy and even Ansh felt the same. He called Khushi a princess and then she started calling him Prince. Anjali insisted the boy come to her house but the nanny refused, saying some other time.The next day when Anjali went to the hospital with Arnav and Khushi for her checkup, she again bumped into the boy. Then she got to know that his father works there. The trio then meets his Father. Raj Kundra, who got to know about Anjali and Khushi from his son yesterday was glad to meet them. They talked for a while and then Anjali got to know about Ansh's mom. They felt bad for the kid, even Arnav felt bad because he knew the pain. Arnav asked Raj to bring Ansh to Shantivan. Since then Ansh used to come to Shantivan daily because he couldn't stay away from Anjali and his princess. Arnav and Ansh also became good friends but sometimes Arnav used to feel jealous of little Ansh because of his closeness with Khushi. Khushi started calling Raj Bhai. Then Raj's reply was, "Since Anjali calls her brother Chotte, I'll call you as Choti." With Ansh being around and family members' support, Anjali came out of her trauma and now leading her life happily.It was a week back when Ansh asked Anjali if he could call her "Maa" for which she happily accepted. Then Arnav insisted Ansh call him Mamu and Khushi as Mami. But the kid called Arnav Mamu but he calls Khushi as princess much to Arnav's annoyance. Today Arnav invited Raj for breakfast saying that he wants to talk to him about something important.After Breakfast everyone assembled in the living area as Arnav wanted to share something. He even invited the Guptas. Arnav started, "Like you, all know, Khushi and I had a run-away marriage because of a few reasons. But now that everything is good, I want to get married to Khushi once again with all the rituals like she always wanted and you all wanted." Even though Arnav said he would reveal about Contract Marriage, Khushi stopped him saying, "it's past and they shouldn't think of it." Everyone is happy after hearing Arnav and then Arnav said that he wanted to talk with Anjali and Raj personally. Arnav, Anjali, and Raj came to the Study room. Then Arnav started, "Raj and Di now whatever I'm going to say is not easy for both of you but think and then answer me. I want you both to get married, not for yourself but for Ansh. He'll get a mother and a new family. I know how much a child needs his mother because I've endeared it. But I was lucky enough to have you Di. I don't want Ansh to go through the pain we've gone through. And also Di, your baby will also get a father. I'll take care of your Rajkumari but every child needs his/her Father. And Raj will be a great father. And coming to you both, even you both need life partners to share your pain. I feel two broken souls can heal each other, you may not let it out but still, there's so much pain in both of you. So, think about it and let me know. If you're okay we can get married together" and left from there leaving the two to decide. Last time Arnav couldn't bring a suitable Groom for his Di because his Di has chosen one for herself. But now after seeing Raj, he knew he'll be a great husband for his Di and take care of both his Di and the unborn baby. He didn't tell about his plan to anyone not even Khushi, but he knows even Khushi was thinking of the same. Both Anjali and Raj agreed to marry only for their kids and the family couldn't ask for anything. The Happiest Soul was Ansh among all.Now Raj also started staying in Shantivan on everyone's insistence and he also wanted Ansh to stay with the family, even he craved for family's love.Within a week both the couples got married. Now it's their Suhagraat and Arnav is getting impatient with every passing second. He wanted to be with his wife alone in their room, but his family is not letting him on the name of some stupid rituals. Khushi couldn't stop smiling seeing her husband's plight. Finally, after an hour, they let them go to their room and Arnav didn't waste even a second before carrying his wife to their room.As soon as they entered their room he placed her on the bed and immediately went to close the door before anyone could come and disturb them. When he turned around he noticed his room which is now decorated beautifully for their Suhaagraat. His baby wife sitting on the bed looking absolutely stunning and giggling at her husband's desperation.On the other side, no one wanted to embarrass Anjali and Raj because all knew the reason behind their marriage, so they didn't decorate their room. But still, there was some little awkwardness that got over when Ansh came over saying that he wanted to sleep with his Maa and Papa.The next morning was really a bright morning for all the members of Shantivan because it brought happiness to their lives.And that's how Arnav and Khushi had their HAPPILY EVER AFTER
