Anjali couldn't bear it anymore...first her husband and now her brother...she couldn't believe that her chotte could talk to her like that...she couldn't stand it...she made her decision...her mind told her to believe Arnav and Khushi but her heart couldn't accept that her Shyam was evil...it was all too much for her...she decided to leave...she decided to go back to Shyam...atleast her heart would be at peace.
Anjali broke the silence in the room..."am leaving Chotte...I need to be with my husband as much as u need to be with your wife...I have always wanted to see u in love...but I never thought that the girl u fell in love with would be the reason for separation from my husband."
Arnav rolled his eyes..exasperated at his Di's foolishness...fine let her have her way...let her go...he thought to himself..."fine Di...if thats what u want then u can have it...u can go to your husband but please Di...be careful...dont let him hurt u...and please don't forget that u still have us...if u realise that he is not worth your love...then please do come back"
Khushi was shocked...after all there was no one better than her who knew Shyam's evil ways...Khushi knew that Shyam would hurt Anjali for sure if she went to him and she couldn't let that happen...she knew what she had to do...she walked upto Di and said..."Di I know u hate me and I know u have made up your mind to leave...let me come with u Di...give me a chance to prove that he is evil...I will come with u Di...and I will meet him alone first...u can watch us from far away...u can see for yourself how he behaves with me...if he behaves with me in a chaste manner then u can be with him...and if he doesn't atleast u will know the truth then"...Arnav couldn't believe what he just heard...his Khushi was going to go upto Shyam and allow him to force his feelings on her once again so that his Di could see the truth for herself !!!!...NO...this was too much...he couldn't let that creep lay his hands on his Khushi just so that Di is convinced...No he wont let it happen but before he could say anything...Anjali spoke "okay Khushiji...u can come with me...am giving u this once chance to prove your claims and if u turn out to be mistaken then u will leave this house never to come back...Deal ???"...Arnav was shocked into silence...he couldn't believe that his Di was saying such things...and to his astonishment Khushi agreed !!!!...fine thought Arnav...he would also accompany them...wait let the entire family come...this is the chance to clear their doubts about Khushi once and for all !!!
So the entire family left to Shyam's place...as soon as they reached Khushi got out and walked upto the house...the rest of the Raizadas stood at a safe distance watching...Shyam had seen khushi coming but he didn't notice that the raizadas were watching him from a safe distance'.seeing Khushi's forlorn appearance'.he jumped to conclusions'thinking that Khushi also had been thrown out and that she was going to be finally be his'.he came running out and threw himself onto Khushi...he hugged her tight...he was beyond elated...he said "Khushiji...I knew u would be mine...knew u would come back to me...Raizadas are not worthy of us Khushiji...I knew Arnav would turn u out for his sister's sake...I love U Khushiji...I have always loved u...am glad we can now be together...away from Arnav...away from Anjali...am so happy Khushiji..I love U"...Arnav,Anjali and rest of the Raizadas stood paralysed...Anjali couldn't believe what she heard and saw'.Khushi was right all along'her husband was cheating on her'blood boiled in her veins'the world turned dark before her eyes'rage to kill rocked her from head to toe'but in all her anger she didn't notice Arnav'.rage evident in his eyes...fury coursing through his veins...Arnav was literally shaking because of his anger...how dare he ???...thought Arnav...how dare he lay his dirty hands on his Khushi...fists clenched he walked upto Shyam and dragged him away from Khushi...before Shyam could even catch a glimpse of his adversary...he felt the iron clad strength of the mighty ASR on his face...before he could recover he was sent flying into the air...and this time Arnav was not alone...Akash and NK too had joined forces...the three Raizada brothers blood coursing through their veins..turned shyam into a condition worser than mince meat and threw him at the feet of Anjali...Anjali looked at Shyam her eyes full of hatred and pain and then turned away from him...she didn't have the strength to look at her husband anymore...Anjali looked at Arnav..her eyes begging for his forgiveness but Arnav was too angry at his Di...
if it wasn't for her then Khushi wouldn't have had to endure the creep touching her...his Di was the sole reason for all her suffering and he couldn't bear it..he turned his gaze away from Di and looked at Khushi'...Khushi stood frozen at her spot...she knew she had agreed to do this out of her own free will...but she couldn't take it anymore'.she didn't have the strength'she stood oblivious to all that was happening around her...she felt polluted...violated...her emotions had gone dead...Payal and Nani noticed Khushi's silence'her lack of emotion...they got worried and then to their horror Khushi collapsed to the floor...Arnav watched with shock as Khushi slowly slumped to the ground unconscious...he caught her just as she was about to hit the ground...Khushi's hands had turned ice cold...she looked pale and lifeless...Arnav felt his own life leaving him...he couldn't stand it'he knew he wouldn't be able to live if something happened to her'he didn't want to live without her !!!!
Arnav lifted Khushi in his arms...walking towards his car...he took her to RM...to their room...he called the doctor and asked her to come immediately...rest of the raizadas waited in the room...Mami had tears in her eyes...guilt ran through her body as she remembered all the harsh words that she had hurled at Khushi...Akash held Payal as she sobbed silently against him...NK stood next to Arnav...holding his shoulder...Nani sat beside Khushi...holding her hand...Anjali stood rooted to one spot...not knowing what to do...it was a dark day for the Raizadas...Arnav held Khushi's other hand...and closed his eyes...he wanted to shut out the entire world...he just wanted Khushi...wanted to kiss away all her pain..take her away from these people who didn't deserve her'take her away to a place where it would be just the both of them...just then Anjali walked upto him and held his shoulder...NK moved aside to make room for Anjali...Anjali was about to speak when Arnav opened his eyes...hatred evident in his eyes...he threw her hand away... he spoke...the venom in his voice evident...Anjali winced...
Arnav heart turned cold towards Anjali as he spoke "enough Di...just leave me alone...u have caused enough suffering...Look at Khushi Di...she is as good as dead...why did u put her through this...I will always love u Di but I cant bear to be around u now...if u had realised earlier then none of this would have happened...Khushi is my wife and yet because of u I had to see someone else touch her...I had to keep quiet because of u...what kind of a husband does that make me...I AM A GOOD FOR NOTHING HUSBAND ALL BECAUSE OF U...I HAD TO LET A F****** bas***d TOUCH MY WIFE BECAUSE MY SISTER IS SO BLINDED BY HER LOVE THAT SHE CANT RECOGNISE HER CHEATING HUSBAND !!!!!"...Arnav screamed out all his pent up anger !!!!...
Anjali couldn't bear it'guilt ridden she ran away from the room'she knew she deserved every bit of anger that she was getting...it was the result of her own actions...her own stupidity and blind love towards her cheating husband...as a result she had lost her own brother and his wife who had done so much for her...she shut the door behind her...she steeled herself...she would make up for all her actions...she would never shed one more tear for that creep who didn't deserve her...meanwhile the doctor had come and checked Khushi'.she assured Arnav that Khushi was unconscious due to all the tension and strain and that a good night's rest will help her and that she would be fine...Arnav relaxed hearing this...rest of the Raizadas left Arnav alone with khushi and went out...all with the same prayer in their hearts...praying that Khushi would be alright by next morning.
Arnav went and freshened up...Khushi was still asleep...he lied down next to her and took her into his arms...placed a light kiss on her forhead and then layed down next to her keeping her head on his chest and closed his eyes...promising himself to keep Khushi happy always...to be hers forever body and soul...to hold her to his side until his death...he hugged her and drifted off to sleep...rest of the Raizadas and their troubles could wait...as of now all he wanted was Khushi...his soul...his love...the very reason for his existence !!!!!
Arnav broke the kiss with Khushi hearing Di's scream...but it didn't startle him...well nothing his Di does today was going to change his mind...it was time that his Di got a taste of the ASR in him...he gave a cold stare..."what is it Di...why are u interrupting me...isnt this what u always wanted...u wanted me to fall in love and now I am in love...pls Di...u will get your chance to speak once I am done...till then it would be better for your health that u keep quiet...because your screams are not going to stop me today from becoming's Khushi's forever !!!!"
Arnav then turned his attention to Khushi once more who had tears in her eyes seeing his love for her...he took the mangalsutra and tied it around her neck...and then he did something that no one thought was capable of ASR...the ruthless man with a loveless heart !!!
He took a blade and made a tiny cut in his finger...seeing his finger dripping in blood Khushi panicked but he silenced her with a single glare...fingers dripping he filled her mang with his blood marking her his wife in a way the world has never seen before !!!!
He gave Khushi a shy smile and she couldn't help smiling back at him though she was furious with him for injuring himself...how could she ever be angry with the hopelessly romantic Arnav in front of her...he knew she would deal with him later in the privacy of their room for what he did but for now she held her tongue !!!
Arnav placed his hand around Khushi's waist and turned to look at his family who were shocked into silence...well it was time that each and every member of his family got what they deserved !!!
Arnav turned to his Di and spoke "Di u have raised me with a mother's love...a love that I have never known and not missed...thanx to u...u were the one who taught me the importance of love and sacrifice...well Di u should be happy...your chotte is in love and yes Di u were right...if Khushi leaves me...even the thought of her leaving me kills me...and I swear Di...I will have only hatred in mind for anyone who dares to separate me from Khushi...body and soul I belong to her now"
Anjali could do nothing but cry out...she pleaded with him telling him that she didn't want to loose him for which Arnav had only one answer...
"I am not yours to loose Di...I belong to Khushi as much as she belongs to me and henceforth no one is as important to me as Khushi...u may accuse me that am turning my back on because of Khushi but I could accuse u of the same thing...Di did I complain and moan when u got married to Shyam...when he became the center of your world...when u spent more time with him...kept all your poojas and vraths for him...I was truly happy for u Di...I gave u your space...things change Di...after getting married things change...u have to make space for my wife...I will always be your brother and I will take care of your every single need but u have to make space for my wife...u have to give us our privacy...not invade upon it...u got angry with me when I threw your husband out for cheating u and misbehaving with Khushi...but I didn't complain because I knew u needed time but now your time is up Di...its time U accepted the truth for yours as well as your child's sake...and as much as u hate me abusing Shyam I hate it when someone abuses Khushi and tries to keep us apart...Di if u still cant accept what Shyam did and if u still think that Khushi is the culprit then u are welcome to leave this house and go to him...no one will stop U from going to him but remember Di u will still have your family to support u if u ever discover the truth about him on your own...but keep one thing in mind Di...Khushi is also a Raizada now and she is my wife...so she will be where her husband is and this is my house too so she will live with me here and if u want to be accepted in this house or in my heart then u have to accept Khushi first...anyone who has anything against my wife can leave NOW !!!!"
The Raizada clan stood speechless hearing Arnav...Nani's eyes were shining with pride for her grandson...she felt sorry for Anjali but she knew that Arnav was right in whatever he said and so she went upto them and blessed them...Nani hugged Khushi with tears in her eyes...she thanked the Gods for sending Khushi into their family...into her chotte's life !!!
Arnav then looked at Akash...rage evident in his eyes...he spoke "Akash its natural for fights to happen in a marriage but don't commit the same mistakes that I did...I misunderstood Khushi and tortured her...but she loved me all the same...life has given me a second chance with her but luck may not favour us all the time...Akash I thank the day the Raizada bros met the Gupta sisters...Payal is a gem of a person who loves u as much as Khushi loves me...treasure her...love her and protect her...maintain her dignity in front of others including your mother...she has no right to treat Payal the way she is treated these days."...Akash bent his head with guilt...whatever his brother said was true...he had hurt Payal beyond words and now it was time to make it upto her...he went upto her to apologise but Payal was Payal...she would never let her husband bent his head...not even in front of her...Payal hugged him tight...letting him know that he had nothing to be sorry for !!!!
Payal then turned to Arnav...the person who had given her dignity due respect...she opened her mouth to speak but Arnav stopped her...he owed her an apology..."Payal...u are my brother's wife and Khushi's sister...I was the reason your marriage broke once...am sorry I caused u and your family so much pain...I threatened Khushi to marry me telling that I would break your marriage to Akash if she didn't...and she married me without hesitation...Payal am sorry for what I have done to both u and Khushi...I promise u that I will treasure Khushi all my life...she is the love of my life Payal and I will never let anything come her way again...if anything or anyone wants to hurt her they will have to pass through me first !!!!...Payal u are like my own sister to me and u have all the rights that a sister has on her brother...am your Devar Payal...am always at your service"...Payal couldn't help smiling at Arnav..."well Arnav...I have forgiven U...if anyone can keep Khushi happy then its U and I am entrusting u my lil sister on behalf of our parents...take care of your wife...and now that u are my Devar u better call me Bhabhi and not Payal !!!"...hearing her Arnav couldn't stop himself...he gave her a mighty ASR hug and said "sure Bhabhi...your sister is safe with me...my heart and soul belongs to her"...saying these words he pulled Khushi along into the hug !!!!
Manorma green with envy seeing Payal's acceptance by Arnav and Akash opened her mouth but Arnav silenced her once more...he said "Mami...the story has been made clear...there are no more misunderstandings...u know Khushi and Payal are innocent and u will accept them as the bahus of this house...its not an option Mami...its a decision...and u have to accept it whether u like it or not or else u are free to leave this house and one more thing Mami...henceforth u will not call Khushi Phati Saari or by any other name that pleases U...she has a name and if u want her u will call her by that name alone...and regarding Bhabhi here...well its upto Akash to speak for her but in this case I will because am sure he will agree with me in saying this...Payal is his wife and my bhabhi and being her Devar I will not tolerate any nonsense against her...Payal and Khushi have equal rights in this house...and u will call her by her proper name and not by any other name that u wish to call..I hope I have made myself clear "...Mami was stunned to hear Arnav speak in such a manner...not just Mami but rest of the Raizadas including Anjali was stunned...after all they never knew what ASR could be like !!!!
Arnav looked at Khushi...he was longing to spend sometime with her alone...enough of family drama...he deserved sometime alone with his angel...even Akash was thinking along the same lines when their thoughts were interrupted by Anjali
To be continued !!!!!
Precap: Anjali decided to leave the house and Khushi brings her back !!!!
Arnav had had enough...things were crossing limits and he had to put an end to it !!!!...he couldn't believe his Di was so self absorbed...so blind that she was willing to destroy other's life to just get her filthy cheating husband back !!!!...Di was blaming his love for Khushi...she couldn't see the pain that Khushi had to go through so that her marriage remained intact...he was going to give Di exactly what she wanted !!!!
Arnav caught hold of Di and took her to the living room...he asked HP to get everyone there...he himself went to his room and took Khushi by her hand...and took her to the living room where everyone had assembled...Anjali seethed with anger seeing Arnav bringing Khushi by her hand...he asked everyone to follow him to where Devi Maiyya's idol was kept...it was the one place in the house which held no importance to him...but now it was the most scared place to him because he was going to make Khushi his forever in front of Devi Maiyya and his family !!!!
He asked Khushi to remove her mangalsutra and sindoor...Anjali rejoiced hearing this because she thought that her chotte was going to throw Khushi out of the house...Khushi panicked...she had made up her mind to leave RM so that Di would be happy but she didn't want to part with her mangalsutra and sindoor as these symbolized her sacred bond with Arnav...but she did as she was told !!!
Arnav took Khushi's hand and said "I married you by force the day I saw u with Shyam...I thought that u were also with him...thought u loved him...thought u were hell bent on destroying Di's life...I have loved U since the first time u fell into my arms in Sheesh Mahal...I came to u to confess my love when I saw u with Shyam...the world turned dark before my eyes...I couldn't bear the thought of u loving someone else...U were born to be mine and I decided to make u mine...I married u not just to save Di's marriage but because I wanted U...U are mine Khushi and U will always be mine...I married u for a contract marriage of 6 months and its almost over...it took me 6 god damn months to realise ur love for me...to realise that u were innocent all along...that U have loved only me in your entire life...Am sorry Khushi...I know that am not worthy of your love after what I and my family did to U...but am selfish khushi...I cant let u go...I need U to survive...without u I am an empty shell...I will die the day u leave me...so am asking U Khushi Kumari Gupta...will u be mine forever...for the rest of eternity...will u be Mrs.Arnav Singh Raizada...pls love me Khushi and pls stay with me...I need u because u are the only person who can love me the way I am...U are the only person who can love both ASR and Arnav...I love U Khushi and I promise to be yours forever !!!!
Tears streamed down Khushi's face as she heard those words...she knew her answer even before he completed his lil speech...today she was not going to be selfless...she was going to be selfish...for her sake...for his sake...for their love's sake...let the others understand if they want to...but today she wasn't going to deny him his right...she was forever his to love and cherish and she would be with him no matter what happened and today she was going to let him and his family know her love for Arnav Singh Raizada !!!
She slowly went towards him...and cupped his cheeks...she slowly brought her lips closer to his...her doe shaped eyes staring at his...he found his salvation in those eyes and he let her know that he understood by closing the distance between his lips...he captured her lips...kissing her...marking her his forever...the rest of the family watched in silence...nobody knew what to say...they didn't dare interrupt them now...naniji smiled...she didn't want to stop them today...yes it was high time that Khushi got the love and respect she deserves...according to her if at all anyone deserved Arnav it was only Khushi...she silently blessed them...Mamiji opened her mouth to speak but one look from her saas and she held her tongue !!!
Anjali had gone green with envy seeing the sight in front her...her chotte who was hers alone now belonged to Khushi...the girl who took her husband away from her...well she wasn't going to let it happen...first her husband and now her brother...she was determined to take Arnav from Khushi even if it killed her brother !!!!
"enough Chotte"...screamed Anjali...her face livid with anger !!!!
