PART-4

Next morning Arnav felt the rays of the sun on his face making him squeeze his eyes shut. Though it was a chilly morning he hardly felt any of the cold around as a warmth enveloped him making him smile in sleep. he himself snuggled more into the warmth.

Hours later Khushi woke up from her sleep and lazily opened her eyes. First thing she found her husband sleeping snuggling to her, their legs got tangled together, his lips closed to her. She felt the warmth rising to her cheeks remembering how his lips ravished her lips many times last night.

Arnav continued to sleep while Khushi eyes roamed Arnav's face and her hands itched to run her fingers over his body trying to memorize every detail.  Suddenly she felt him snuggled more closer to her; and now she could feel her neck tingle every time he breathing. She could only do savoring the moment and enjoying the feel of this closeness.

Arnav found himself in the most peaceful slumber he had ever had and he turned slightly and felt a warm softness against himself and he lazily opened his eyes to see the most beautiful woman in the world, His Wife - Khushi Arnav Singh Raizada. He saw her lips quivering. He leaned towards Khushi and kissed her thoroughly on the lips while she responded to his kiss with equal passion. He kissed her few more times before leaving her breathless.

Arnav rubbing her rosy lips with his thumb " I'm addicting you lips " making Khushi blush " You go freshen up First. And there are some spare toiletries in bathroom wall cabinet "

Khushi " Ji " 

She got up from the bed and went bathroom to get ready. She stood amazed seeing the size of his bathroom two times bigger than her room at Gupta House. She saw a large Jacuzzi in the right corner of the room and left side of door a massive shower room, towards the wall stood 2 in built sinks and a large mirror, and a wall cabinet at the right side of the mirror. She took out a new toothbrush and toothpaste from cabinet. 

After brushing her teeth, she removed her lehenga and placed it on hanger. Tip toeing naked she grabbed a soft white unused towel hanging on the radiator and entered the shower room. Standing under the steady stream of warm water falling over her, she felt relax. 

After drying herself she came out of the shower room wrapped in the towel around herself. She stopped abruptly catching her image in the mirror; there was a small cut on her lower lips. She blushed hard touching it.

Arnav was talking with Aman over the phone. He disconnected the call as he heard the bathroom door open. He discretely placed his phone in his suit pocket and turned to look at Khushi. She was dressed in yesterday's outfit and looked serene with her hair down.

Arnav went to wardrobe; and took out a parcel which contained the dress he wished to see her in when they're going to their first date; went to Khushi.

Arnav giving the parcel " This is for you " headed to bathroom with his cloth

She opened the parcel and found a beautiful red floor length raw silk anarkali with golden floral dori embroidery with sequin highlight with red georgette embroidered dupatta; and small jewelry box. She opened the box and found a beautiful pair of gold and pearl chandbala. She quickly changed into the anarkali and put on the earrings. She went to the mirror ; combed her hair; adjusted her mangalsutra and applied sindoor in her maang.

After bath when Arnav came inside the room, he found Khushi sitting on the bed playing nervously with her fingers. His eyes were not leaving at the beautiful goddess in front of him. He was stunned by her flawless beauty.

Arnav " Let's go for breakfast, Khushi "

Khushi " Ji " getting up from the bed

Arnav and Khushi came downstairs. Feeling her nervousness to face the family, he held her palms in his to make her better; and made their way to dining table.

Everyone was silent on the dining table; everyone ignored their presence. Arnav sat on his usual chair. Khushi proceeded to serve the breakfast to Nani  but was stopped.

Nani " I'll take it myself " coldly

Arnav saw Khushi's eyes filled with fresh tears. That was it! He stood up from his chair with a jerk.

Arnav roared " Enough " making  everybody on the table flinched with his loud voice "I had enough of this " paused for a moment, controlling his rising temper before continuing in low deadly voice " Whether you all like it or not, she is my wife. I want you people to love and respect her. And if anyone misbehaves with my wife, then they'll have to answer to me " 

He took khushi's hand in his and dragged her from there to the living room while everyone looked at them with shock. Looking at the rage in his eyes, Khushi quietly followed him. He sat with her on the couch.

Arnav " HP " yelled

A shivering HP stood in front of them " Ji..ji.. bhaiya.. "

Arnav " Bring our food here "

HP " Ji! I'll come in a minute "  scurried away from there as fast as could

All the time Khushi just stared at him with wide eyes. HP brought all the dishes and set them on the table.

HP " Bhaiya, anything else? "in shivering voice

Arnav " No, you may go ! "

Arnav made placed their food in one plate; turning towards her  he brought a spoon full of poha in front of her mouth and fed her making everyone stunned with his concern for Khushi.
