TS - MY LOVE FOR YOU

Second Shot:

Arnav entered mandir, this is first time he was entering after 14 years. His eyes searched for Khushi… At last he found her crying sitting near the idol… He moved towards her, when he heard…

“Betiya… Puja was done..” said the pandit..

Khushi looked at him and passed a weak smile…

“Why didn’t you ask your husband to do this betiya?” asked pandit..

Khushi nodded no and turned to leave… She stopped in her tracks seeing Arnav in front of her… She slowly took her baby steps and reached near him..

Arnav took hold of her hand, and walked down the steps.. He don’t know what made him to held her hand, but he just felt like she need this.. Khushi hugged his arm sideways, keeping her head on his shoulder, silently muffling her cries.

***************

Arnav entered his room, only to find his wife sitting on the bed crying loudly.. He rushed towards her…

“Khushi..” called Arnav…

Khushi looked at him with red eyes… after effect of crying..

“Arnavji…” said Khushi..

Arnav’s world for a minute stopped… This was the first time, he was hearing her calling him… He stood immobile.. he just wanted to hear his name from her mouth again… He brought back to the world when he felt someone shaking him..

He saw Khushi shaking him….

“What happened?.. Why are you crying?” asked a very anxious Arnav…

“My Saree torn” saying Khushi showed a red saree to him…

Arnav looked bewildered at her..

“You were crying for this?” asked Arnav to confirm his doubt..

Khushi nodded at him.. Arnav closed his eyes and asked.. “Leave that Khushi… You can get another new saree”

“No.. I want the same saree only” said an adamant Khushi…

“What the?.. Where will I get the same saree Now?”asked Arnav..

Khushi started wailing out loudly..

“Shhh Sh.. relax.. I will get one for you… Shhh” saying Arnav made Khushi calmed down.

****************

Arnav was sleeping when he felt someone stirring beside him……

He opened his sleepy eyes, he was shocked finding Khushi moaning in pain… He stood up in jerk..

“Khushi… Khushi..What happened?”He asked her, taking her in his arms.

“Arnavji… It’s paining…” Khushi said clutching her stomach in her safe arms as if she was saving her child and preventing from pain…

Arnav lifted her, not able to see her in pain and took her to hospital…

****************

“Nothing to Worry Mr. Raizada.. It’s because of heat and stress… Take care of your wife” saying Doctor left the room..

Arnav looked at his wife who was sleeping after sedation… He went towards her and kissed her forehead…

“I can’t see you in pain Khushi” said Arnav, but he failed to notice a drop of tear falling from his wife’s eyes and a small smile stretched on her lips..

Though she was fast asleep… She could feel her husband’s care.

***************

Arnav was working in poolside… He got a call, he stood up to attend it, when he saw his wife standing before the mirror..

He dropped the call in curiosity and looked at her.. His eyes fixed on her…

He saw her lifting her saree and touching her belly which was slightly swollen… He saw his wife pouting sadly… He smiled looking at her pout....

He frowned when he saw her taking something from the cupboard… His eyes widened, when he saw her taking measures of her stomach.

If he do remember, just yesterday only his nani took her measurement.. He silently laughed at his impatient….

Khushi stood there caressing her stomach.. She looked at herself in mirror….

“Don’t forget mama” said Khushi silently which was not audible to Arnav…

In the middle of the night, He was awaken by some noises.. He woke up and looked at his side to see the empty bed.. Then he heard some noises from the washroom..

He got up and went towards the bathroom, pushed the door lightly to see Khushi vomiting clutching her belly… tears were flowing from her eyes…

He rushed inside and held her head in his hand, patting her back with another end.. His eyes widened when he saw the traces of some blood…

“Khushi…. Blood?” asked Shocked Arnav..

“It is normal in Pregnancy Arnavji” saying Khushi stood up..

though Arnav was not satisfied with her answer, he helped her washing herself and settled her in bed.

*****************

Arnav was feeling unsettled in his heart… He felt as though Khushi was hiding something from him. He tried asking her, but all that girl said she was perfectly fine… He couldnt take her answer just like that.. He felt a void in her voice.. though He never conversed her verbally, he do know it was not what his wife was like..

*****************

Arnav entered the RM… He saw HP rushing towards him, he gave his latop bag and asked the whereabouts of his nani and his wife. He got to know that his nani was resting and his wife was in mandir which was in RM.

He climbed the steps looking at Khushi who was standing their with her eyes closed and hands folded… He was walking just admiring her… He stopped in his tracks when he was Khushi was crying… He turned and walked to her, tapped her shoulder getting her out of the reverie..

“ Khushi.. Are you Alright?” asked a very concerned Arnav.

“I’m” said Khushi passing a weak smile…

Arnav crooked his eyes….

“Missing my Parents” saying she moved out of the mandir leaving Arnav in confusion…

*****************

“Mr. Raizada.. You can come in…” said the nurse..

Arnav entered the cabin. He saw Khushi who was caressing the baby picture that was kept on the table..

His eyes wandered through the five months belly of his wife… A wide smile formed on his lips..

He was brought back to reality when he heard the doctor speaking to him..

“Mr. Raizada…. You wife is perfectly fine… Nothing to worry.. You can take her to home” said the doctor looking at Khushi…

*****************

Arnav was driving back home with Khushi beside him leaning on her seat and looking outside…

He saw a small smile forming on her lips while caressing her belly, he looked around to see what was the reason of her smile.. He saw the showroom “Mom And Me” where her eyes were focussed…

He parked his car before the showroom, getting a shocked expression from his wife. he silently got down and helped her in getting down…

Both entered the showroom with Arnav’s hands around her shoulder with the sense of protection.

He took her to baby section dresses… He asked Khushi to chose with his eyes… Khushi smiled and entered the section..

He saw her eyes wandering through all the collections… Khushi was just caressing all the material, checking whether it will hurt the baby or not.. She looked each and every piece spending enough time in analysing, finally picked up, one baby blue frock and Blue shirt…

They spend 6 hours in shopping, while taking small break in the middle… He enjoyed seeing his wife smiling from her heart.. He liked this feeling…
