WITH YOU

CHAPTER-20

MISSING HIM

"Khushi see I got your certificates...oh you got such splendid marks...you remember you topped the college entrance exam by your own...you were always a good student...." said Payal with roaming her hands proudly on her baby sister's college certificates but Khushi's mind was somewhere else...

"So...you are going to college now...I think the girls' college is best...I don't want any boy eye my Khushi..." he teasingly said her

"Ummm...no...I am not going to college"

"What? And why is that?"

"Woh Chachaji said it will cost much money and now they need to save money as Pratik Bhai and Jiji will be taking admission in universities for their higher studies...they need extra tutors, books..."

"That Chachaji of yours...someday I will teach him a good lesson... now leave all that... come here with your school documents tomorrow... you will take admission tomorrow..."

"But how? The admission fees...monthly fees...books..."

"I will pay for all that..."

"What?"

"You know...there was a test held in my university and I topped that, so I got another scholarship...and also I started taking classes of juniors as a private tutor....so by this I am having enough money to bear your college expenses...if needed I will work more but you will study as much as you want..."

"But you will be tired doing so much work...leave that, you only focus on your study and business plans..."

"You again took your wifey avatar... by doing all these works my determination to prove myself and give you a happy life increases more... so you don't think much...as I am leaving Lucknow day after tomorrow so we have lots of work to do before that...."

The next day Khushi got admission in college with her favourite subject. They bought study items and new clothes...

"Study well...and inform me if you need anything...Aman's elder sister Rachna will be here to help you in your studies...she is a good student...you will be going to her house three days in a week after your college"

"Hmm...but her fees..."

"I insisted her but she denied saying you are like her sister so she will be happy helping you..." replied Arnav playing with her silky long hairs... "Make friends wisely...don't trust everyone...you know I am feeling so restless...school and college life is so different...be careful and enjoy your studies...I can't even be here on your first day...take care of yourself..." said Arnav hovering on top of her and stroking his hands softly on her cheeks...

"And you will take your meals and medicines on time...you are working overtime so take rest amidst of your studies..." said Khushi tears rolling down her eyes...

Arnav sucked her tears and kissed her to his heart content...they broke the kiss and looked each other, both drowned in other's eyes... "I love you...I miss you badly...sometimes I feel to leave everything and come back to you...but then I remember Maa's words...I have to do this for us...uff it's so difficult....my morning start with your thoughts and night ends meeting you in dreams...I know how they behave with you...they make you work day and night like a slave...it cuts me...I feel to drag you out from there...it hurts and now I am also far from you...you have to face them alone...I feel useless..." He said kissing madly all over her face...tears rolling down from both their eyes...

"Ssshhh...I am not alone...you are always with me...from morning to night...so what you are not present physically but I feel you with me everywhere each second...I don't care what they do or say...it doesn't affect me because you are always in my thoughts...you know I just complete all the works fast to come here...this place calms my heart... I spent most of the time here..." said Khushi wiping his eyes...

"Just give me some more time...wait for me...very soon I will make things in our favor...we will live together...in our small world..." said Arnav nuzzling her neck...

"My all time is your's..." saying Khushi held him tightly...Arnav smiled and locked her soft petals with his... after sometime...

"Arnavji..." voiced Khushi with much difficulty...her heart pounding fast due to Arnav's ministrations...

"Hmm" replied Arnav peppering soft kisses all over her face, neck, jawline, breasts, waist ... sometimes biting... nuzzling... sucking...nibbling...licking...squeezing and what not...their upper body bare, both feeling each other's skin...Though their lower body was fully clothed but Khushi can feel his hard on...she knew he will never cross his limits and let his desire overpower him...she let him do whatever he wants to calm himself...she knew this was his dose to live apart from her till his next visit...she smiled feeling the sweet pains given by him...this is also her dose as well...she clutched him tightly feeling him rubbing himself exactly on her centre...

"What will I say everyone at home?" asked Khushi her voice came out as a whim...

"Say that your friends pleaded you to give the entrance exam and you scored among top 3 so got scholarship... you need not to pay fees..." replied Arnav huskily...After loving her as much as he can they both dozed off in each other's arms...

Surely she must have done some good things that's why God graced her with him... for her, he was her God,her everything...that man never thought about his own comfort or luxuries...always ready to do anything for her...his eyes reflect that she is his...she is his heart's queen...she felt overwhelmed by his staring at her....oh how much she is missing him...his staring...his care...his love...his hugs and his kisses....they never live apart for so long after marriage...

"Please come back..." sighed Khushi

"Did you say something" asked Payal

"No jiji... let me say you a truth today...I never topped any entrance exam...it was a pure lie..." and with that she narrated the whole story...

"Really? You were never separated as we thought...you used to meet each other..."

"Hmm....whenever he visited Lucknow I used to say you all ,that I am going to stay at one of my friend's house but that was not true...we used to live together and spent time...and he is the one who paid my college fees..."

"Ohh...he loves you so much...he is so different with you as if he is not Arnavji but someone else...you are very lucky..." said Payal lovingly...

"You know he never cared about himself...always worked hard to fulfill my needs and that scared me to hell...only Devimaiya knows how tensed I used to be every second when he was away...I started and ended my day by praying for his safety..."

"And that is why you used to visit temple daily two times...and fast each and every occasion you can...that was all for him..." said Payal amusingly...

She smiled... "No...I only visited temple once a day...the other time I used to visit our home...there I spent hours cleaning the house and taking care of the plants... there I felt ,he was closer to me...I used to talk my heart out imagining him..."

"Ohh I didn't knew my sister is so much in love... you are missing him right?"

She nodded her head... "Very badly...but they need him..."

"Ok now sleep...its half past 10..."

"He will call me...I will not get sleep without listening his voice...you go and sleep..."

"Call me if you need anything..." said Payal and kissing her forehead left...

"We miss you Arnavji..." said Khushi caressing her baby in one hand and in other hand clutched her Arnavji's photograph tightly near her heart...
