Visit to SHEESH Mahal : The next day khushi wakes up and sits on her bed thinking what happened yesterday night. How Arnav kissed her and her heart rate started increasing. Her chain of thoughts were broen by payal & Buaji’s voice. Buaji : Are O Sankadevi. Still you are on bed. Dont you want to get ready and go to sheesh mahal to show sarees to Naaniji & Anjaliji. Payal : Ha Khushi, Anjaliji has already called twice. Now get up and get ready fast, since akashji has already arranged a car for us to pick us. Khushi : Ok Jiji.. give me two minutes. Khushi rushes into her bathroom with lightning speed and after 20mins comes out wearing a red colour chudhidar.

Payal checks the sarees which she had chosen to show to naaniji. Garima : Payal why dont you take some more expensive sarees from your shop. I doubt whether they will like such simple sarees. Payal : dont worry amma. Akashji told na that naaniji like simple designs. I hope they will like it, if still no go then i will take them to the shop. In the mean time the car arrives and there is a knock at the door. Buaji opens the door and sees the driver.He tells them that he was sent by akash. Buaji : Payal see the car has arrived. Payal comes near the door with 2 bundles full of sarees. The driver helps her to carry it and keeps it in the car. Payal : Khushi where r u?The car has come. What is taking you such a long time. Khushi : Are Jiji coming dont worry i wont be late. She was about to go out when her phone rang. Unknown number. She picks the call. Khushi : Hello who is this? Person : Someone whom you know. Khushi : Dekhiye whoever you are, how did u get my number. Person : It is very easy for me to get your number dear. Without even raising my hand i can also get you. Khushi shocked to hear such words and opens her mouth in perfect O shape and cuts the call. Payal : What happen Khushi? Khushi : Nothing jiji come lets go. At AR OFFICE : Arnav is in his cabin thinking about previous night and his conversation with khushi which he had just now. Arnav gets a call from Aman from delhi office. Aman : ASR there is a need for new designer here in delhi for the upcoming celebration of AR sucess. Arnav thought for a while and then spoke. Arnav : Aman i have found a girl suitable for this position but anyway i still dont know if she would agree. Anyway why dont you such speak to her regarding this and let me know you opinion on this. Aman was shocked to hear ASR for the 1st time asking his opinion. ASR was a man who made his own decisions but then was now very keen in knowing about the girl which his boss was talking. Aman : Ok ASR. Please let me know her details so that i can contact her. Arnav : Ok Aman i will send you the details and hangs the call. Aranv call Akash since he was at home. Akash : Ha bhai tell me. U called me. Arnav could hear loud laughs of his sister and other in the hall. Arnav : Akash who is at home. So much of noice that i cant even hear you. Akash : Actually bhai i forgot to tell you, Di had invited payal and khushi to home to show the sarees. So they are here and we all are having nice fun here.

Naani : Khushi Bitya anyway we are all going to delhi day after tomorrow so why dont you come and stay with us. We can even speak to your parents if you want. Khushi exchanges her look with payal. Payal : Naaniji can i speak to khushi for a sec. Naaniji : Sure. Payal and Khushi gets up and goes out of the Mahal into the lawn. Payal : Khushi this is a good opportunity for you. Since now you have completed your studies and looking for job, and fro my knowledge AR is the best company where you can gain experience and also learn new things. Khushi : I know Jiji. but what will Amma,Buaji and Baabuji say. Payal : Dont worry Khushi i will speak to them and please dont miss this chance. They enter the Mahal. In the mean time Anjali, Maami and Naani selects most of the sarees which payal had got for them. Anjali : What have you decided Khushi? Khushi : Anjaliji i need to speak to my Buaji, amma. I dont mind working in AR. Anjali : Ye huie na baat. Dont worry khushiji. We will speak to you r parents. Naaniji : Anjali bitya call them for lunch tomorrow. so that we can also meet them and speak to them sicne we will be leaving to delhi day after tomorrow. Anjali nods and calls Khushi’s homw. Akash arranges a car for khushi so that she can reach AR office. At AR Office: Khushi enters the office alone with akash. Akash gets a phone call and he instructs khushi to go bhai’s cabin. Khushi takes small steps towards the stairs which leads to Arnav’s cabin. She climbs the stairs and finally reaches the cabin and hears Arnav screaming at someone on top of his voice and starts getting scared for coming to his office at wrong time. She knocks the door. Arnav turns around and then disconnects the call.He was mesmerized seeing khushi in red dress and her beauty. Aranv : Khushi come in. And tries to control his anger. khushi :Sorry i think i came at the wrong time. Arnav : No its ok. give me 5 mins and make your self comfortable. He gets up from his chair and goes to his private washroom. In the meantime akash come to his cabin with 3 mugs. 1 black coffee for ASR and the other two mugs of tea for himself and khushi. Akash : Where is Bhai khushiji? Khushi points to the door where he went. Akash : I think bhai needs some time to control his anger, that why he is in his washroom. Khushi : I have never seen a person shouting like this on top of his voice. I was initially scared to enter the cabin but then i had to. Akash : Hey relax Khushiji Bhai gets angry very fast when things doesnt come his way or the way he wanted. But then only Di can control his anger. He is little tensed regarding the new designer post which is very much needed in AR office Delhi. Since we would be celebrating the success of AR design. Now khushi understood why it was so important for akash to ask her to join AR and also why arnav was screaming to the person on top of his voice. Her chain of thoughts were broken with the click of washroom door. Arnav entered his cabin and saw akash with a broad smile and a tensed khushi. Arnav: I am sorry khushi.I dint mean to scare you. Khushi : Its ok aranv i understand. And i am ready to join AR. But i need time to speak to my parents.Infact Anjaliji has invited Amma,Baabuji & Buaji to Mahal for lunch tomorrow. But again i need to see what they have to tell. Arnav : Thatz great. I will speak to them them. Akash almost chocked his tea when he heard this and gave a surprised look to aranv Arnav : What? Y are you starring me like this. Akash : Bhai is it you? I mean the great Arnav Singh Raizaada is going to speak to khushi’s parents to get her to join AR delhi office. I cant believe this. I mean ASR nevers approaches anyone himself. he just raises his finger and things get done. But now OMG i cant believe this. I need to tell this to DI,. Hats Off to you Khushiji. Akash get up and leaves the cabin to inform this to DI. Arnav: Why is he acting so wiered? Khushi : Arnav why did you call me here? Anything important. Arnav heard akash screaming that he is leaving to mahal. Arnav shouted that he will drop khushi to home. Aranv gets up and closes the door and pulls the curtains to close the glass windows. Khushi is fully tensed seeing this behaviour of Aranv and her heart start beating fast again. Khushi : Ar.. Arnav what is this? Why did you close the door and curtains. Arnav turns around and gives a smirk and slowly walks towards khushi. Khushi in the meantime gets up from the chair and starts moving backwards until she hits the wall. Aranv : I think i have told you that you are still to be punished Khushi for spoiling my show. Khushi : I think you already punished me yesterday. and then covers her mouth with her hand realizing what she said and what she meant. Aranv gave a small smile and again started approaching her. arnav stood in front of her with his hands on either sides of the wall and she is trapped b/w him and the wall. Khushi : Arnav i need to go home. Jiji will be waiting for me. Arnav : Akash will drop her home.And you are not going until you get punished. He slowing bends his face down and khushi came to know his next actions. Khushi : Arnav this is not good. I mean i said i am sorry for spoiling your show but this is not the way to punish me. I also agreed to work with you and still you are.. was cut off by arnav since he had placed his finger on her lips. Khushi was now trembling in fear and their proximity. Arnav : Do you think i will take advantage of you? I just wanted to know when i near you why does it affect you. As far as the job is concern, i came to know all about you the 1st day itself and that is why i wanted you to work with me. Khushi : How come you know about me. Does that mean it was you who called me today morning. Arnav : You are clever khushi. Yes it was me who called you since i wanted to hear your voice. Arnav raises his hand to her cheeks and touches the softness of her skin. Khushi : Arnav please i need to go. Please stop this. and holds his hand.They share a eye lock. Arnav grabs her from her waist and pulls her closer. Khushi looses her balance and holds arnav. Khushi : why are you behaving like this? This is not good and starts struggling. Arnav leaves her and turns around. I am sorry khushi. I am really sorry. I think its time that we go home. Naaniji will be waiting. I will drop you home.He goes near the door and his phone rings and he picks the call Arnav : Ha di i am actually returning home. I will drop khushi to her home. Anjali : Are nahi nahi chotte. Come home with khushi. We can have lunch together and then you can drop her home. Arnav : Ok Di and disconnects the call and then turns to see khushi. Arnav : I am sorry khushi. Di wants us to in Mahal for lunch. I will wait for you in the outside. He opens the door and leaves,leaving perplexed khushi behind.
