Chapter 30


In the morning, khushi woke up and quickly got ready wearing the dress chosen by Arnav. She went down and see her parents already up and finishing their work. Garima is preparing the table with the delicious dishea for the guests and shashi ji is finishing his office work to have good time with the couple.
Garima: khushi beta u luk beautiful in this dress.
Ronit came down from stairs.
Ronit: of course maum she wud as it is chosen by her Arnavji.
Khushi kept her arms at her waiste and gave an evil look to Ronit.
Khushi: Ronit....
Garima and shashi laughed at the duo and their small lil tit bits.
Shashi: beta when is Arnav cmng to pick u up?
Khushi: y papa are u all nt cmng with us.
Garima: no beta only u r going with Arnav beta. We shud be waiting for them at home. They wud be straight away cmng home.
Khushi: so mama I shud also not go. I will also wait with u all. It doesn't luk good me alone going.
Shashi: no beta u shud go now. Now u r the part of their family. U have to think as a Bahu of Raizada house now at first.
Khushi: but papa..
Garima and Shashi smiled at their childish daughter who being alot matured but still need to learn about her cmng life.
Garima came and hold khushi's hand and took her towards the couch where Shashi is sitting and made her sit in between them. Ronit sat infront of them.
Shashi gently caressed khushi's hair and Garima placed her hand on khushi's.
Shashi: beta from today onwards you are going to be the part of Raizada family. You would be considered as their would be daughter in law. Beta marriage is very inportant part of life. It is not only the union of two people, it is the union of two souls and two families. As a daughter of this house you had always made us proud but now u r also the bahu of Raizada's and always be an ideal bahu. From today onwards u will be the pride of Raizada's and since u knw Arnav beta is a big media catch at all times so as being his wife you have to mend your life according to him and his family. Now you have to think about them first at all times.
All this while khushi is carefully listening to all the words of her father. Her father is always the source of advisory mentor to her.
Garima: beta I am very proud to have u as a daughter but now I want u to be a good bahu too. From today you are stepping into new life where ur priorities change, choice change and you have to live ur life keeping all in mind. I know these thngs change after marriage when u go to ur inlaws but I think ur life starts to change as soon as u r tied in a rltnship with a boy and two families tie with each other.
Khushi just smiled at both of them and nodded as yes.
Shashi: so now are u ready to go.
Khushi: yes papa.
Garima: beta Arnav's maum dad and very nice and I know they wud always luv u as their daughter. Now they are cmng here for few days and for sure they wud like to spend most of their time with you. So you have to give most of ur time to them.
Khushi: okk maum. She hugged both of them as thanking them for teaching her stepping rights steps in life.
The family share an emotional time and then they heard the door bell ring and Arnav and Annie came in and met everyone.
After staying for like 5 minutes the three went to airport. They all decided to have breakfast together.
Arnav, Annie and Khushi set their drive in Arnav's SUV.
Arnav, khushi and Annie are driving to airport.
Annie: bhai I am so excited... I am going to meet them after almost 9 months.
Arnav: yae.... They were missing u alot princess.
Annie: I miss them too.
Arnav: well I must say after they come to know about khushi, they never care about me...
Annie laughed: hahaha bhai, ofcourse my bhabhi is special than you.
Arnav: waooo now u too... Maum and dad were not less and now u...
Arnav: thats very bad khushi.
Khushi smiled at their conversation.
Khushi: Arnavji ma and papa also considers more about u than me.
Arnav: ahem ahem.. Some one is jealous.
Khushi: and other one too...
With this the trio started laughing.
Their 30 min journey ended soon with fun and laughter and they reached the Airport. The three of them moved to the lounge for the exit of business class passengers.
They checked the status of flight after waiting for some time they saw them coming out. Annie run to her parents and hugged them... She had tears of joy coming out of her baby eyes which dnt go unnoticed by all. They hugged her long and tightly and showering alot of love on her. Then Arnav went forward and touched their feet.
Arnav: how was ur flight dad?
Ranveer: it was good beta.
Soon after Arnav finished meeting his parents khushi went forward and touced their feet as she is meeting them first time as their bahu.
Ranveer and Akanksha Were very impressed witt her gesture. They knew khushi is traditional girl from heart.
Ranveer: God bless u beta. Always be happy.
Akanksha raizada: I am so happy to have u as my bahu beta. And then hugged her. Always be happy and cheerful beta.
After having a small conversation they descended towards the car.
In car Arnav and Ranveer are sitting in front and all the ladies at back. Khushi is sitting just behind the seat of Arnav and next to Akanksha. Arnav could see khushi's angelic face through his rear mirror and also the tension on her face. Arnav just passed a reassuring smile to khushi and she too saw his gesture and smiled in return.
This eye conversation didn't go unnoticed by Akanksha. She felt happy as Arnav and khushi are so deeply in love and also smiled a little seeing khushi's tensed face. Aware of the reason of her being tensed she tried to console her alittle.
Akanksha: what happen khushi beta? U seems tnsed.
Khushi: noo mmaaum... I am ok.
Akanksha felt so happy seeing how khushi accepted her as her mother. She kissed khushi on her forhead.
Akanksha: beta u need not to worry about us. We are happy to have u as our bahu. Dnt feel shy or afraid of us. You are not our bahu. You are our daughter just like Annie.
Ranveer: yes beta. Y r u afraid about us.
Arnav is listening to all the conversation and giving a smiling and reassuring look to khushi. They both are conversing with each other through eyes.
Annie decided to tease khushi: maum u knw khushi was so tnsed since last evening: OMG.. Seems like typical Indian bahu...
Akanksha just hit her lightly on her head.: call her bhabhi.
Annie: maum...
Ranveer: no beta she is elder to u as well as now she is ur bhai's wife soo..
Arnav: learn some manners little girl and he smirked.
Annie: bhai....
Akanksha: no u have to call her bhabhi from now... Okk??
Annie: but maum..
Khushi: maum I only asked her to call me Khushi.
Arnav: dnt spoil her khushi. U always save her not ths time.
Akanksha: look who is talking of spoiling annie. Mr ASR u r the only one who spoild her the most.
Khushi gave a teasing look to Arnav. They all started laughing and soon tey reaced home.
Garima and Shashi were waiting for them .
The family enters in and were warmly greeted by Shashi, Garima and Ronit.
They hugged each other.
After serving some juice and light snacks and conversing for some time they all descended to the dining table to have breakfast. Arnav signalled khushi to sit besides her but she refused signalling about the family. Arnav still not convinced. This is seen by Akanksha. Khushi is just going to sit beside Annie.
Akanksha: khushi beta.y dntu go and sit beside Arnav.you both are couple now. Get used to it.
Khushi smiled and went near Arnav. Arnav gave her a victory smile. She sat the chair next to Arnav. Arnav gave the plate infront of Khushi to the servant at corner shared his plate with her. Khushi looked at him with shocking eyes. No doubt they eat from the same plate always but now they are infront of family. Arnav just looked at her expression with confusion.
Khushi: Arnavji we are with all.
Arnav: soo???
Khushi: I would eat in my own plate.
Arnav: excuseme?? No we are eating in same plate. With ths he raised his spoon and put the dish in khushi's mouth.
Seeing all this the family burst into laughter. Arnav and khushi thn realized about what they did.
Ranveer: not bad beta. Romancing at dining table.
Akanksha: I think we should get use to of this lovey dovey couple now.
Annie and Ronit decided to tease them more: we are already use to it...and with this they both hi fived ech other and startes laughing.
Arnav and khushi glared at them giving them angry looks.
Soon after having fun and laughter time all finished their food and sat in entertainment room and talked for an hour. Khushi is now completely mixed up with her mother and father in law. She felt the same love and care from them as from her real parents. She was adorned by them. In couple of hours they shared a mother daughter bond. Garima and Shashi had a sense of sarisfactory pleasure on their face.
The time passed by and soon it was 3. Ranveer and Akanksha along with Arnav and Annie decided to go to Raizada mansion and relax for some time as they have to meet later in the evening too. Khushi too decided to assist them as she is well known with the house now nd if the couple wud need anythng then she can help thm.

Soon they bid bye to all and drove towards Raizada mansion.
They had a fun laughter time on the way, sometimes laughing and teasing the love couple and other times teasing Annie. After reaching mansion khushi assisted them with all means. Akanksha felt so happy that she had maintained the house so well. It didn't seems like the house was being used by bachelors. No doubt servants are always there but directing the servants to do right was something khushi did so well. They moved to their room and and decided to have a small nap.
After spending some quality time with maum and dad khushi moved towards Annie's room and had some fun time with her. At last she decided to move to her and Arnav's room and check on him.
As soon as she entered the room her eye spotted on her handsome and Dashing husband sitting on couch doing his work but later her sight spotted on the room thts not made since morning.
Khushi: Wat is this. Servants dnt even made ur room today.
Arnav: thts because they are not allowed to come in my room.
Khushi: wat???
Arnav: yes becausee...( he stood up an went behind khushi and hugged her) u r here..
Khushi: ohhh what if I am not here then??
Arnav: I would make it but servants dnt come in my room even in India.there are alot of confidential papers and all so they are only allowed to clean the room but that too in someone's presence.
Khushi: okk... With this she moved towards the bed and started making it. Arnav went and started doing his work.
Arnav: yae baby, where is my red file? I cudn't find it anywhere.
Khushi went near the drawer and gave it to him.
Khushi: you left it last time.
Arnav: yae I dnt need it in India.
After some time Khushi finished her work and went and sat near Arnav. she rested her head on his shoulder.
Arnav looked at her once and seeing her angelic face he closed his laptop and hugged her from back and in no time bringing her on his lap.
Arnav: baby, u liked maum and dad.
Khushi: Arnavji I am so lucky to have got u and this family. You dnt know how happy I am. I dnt even felt once that I am bahu of this house. Maum and Dad loves me as a daughter.
Arnav: thats because u love them too.
With this they both hugged each other.
Khushi: arnavji...
Arnav: hmm...
Khushi: plzzz show me my dress na...
Arnav passed a smile acknowledging how eager she is to see her dress.
Arnav: Not now jaan... After 2 hours..
