TBAHC_Chapter- 3

It was past dinner time, not seeing Arnav coming out of his room for dinner Khushi thinks it will be better she take his food in room.

It is weird actually, in her stay of one month one thing she got very clear that he is a very punctual of everything, be it his work, food or anything.

While arranging his food one thought cross her mind like any other time, is it about today’s lunch? The food was fine actually, even his friend like too. But his aloofness was something that is giving her jitters, is she done something wrong?

She knocked on the door but get no response, the door was slightly ajar, so she push it open and pulling the food trolley come inside. She found the balcony door was open,

Don’t know from how long he is staring at the amber liquid in the glass but in actual he is lost, lost in deep thoughts,

No ,things can’t be left out like that. Yes! He is attracted towards her but he didn’t know then when he named this as “attraction” that he would be feel jealous just seeing his friend compliment her, seeing her with that look as he look at her.

“Ronit is an punk and I hate him!”

Yes! That might be the cause.

But then things can’t be left like that, can it?

He heard her the minute she entered into his room with a slight knock at the door, but he don’t bother to respond, she come and started arranging his food on the little tea table in the balcony.

Arnav caught her wrist at the time she started leaving,

Khushi looked perplexed for sometime looking from her hand to his face then back to her hand. and before she formed any question Arnav started talking.

“Khushi I need you,”

“Huh?”

Arnav run his fingers through his hair, trying to find some decent and good way to express what exactly he is feeling, but her totaly blank expression doesn’t helping her either.

Calming his breathing he look at Khushi to find her still staring at him blankly.

“Look Khushi don’t take me wrong, but when I said I need you, I really do Khushi. I want you to be my..”

“Girlfriend!” Khushi cut him in middle, very shocked to think anything straight.

“No,  Half Girlfriend,”

“ Half girlfriend? ”

Arnav look back at Khushi who is looking at him still with a confused expression.

“I don’t believe in relationship, emotion, marriage Khushi, but there is this feeling between you and me which I can’t ignore even after I tried. So I want to give it a try, I want you to become my Half girlfriend , with no emotions attached .”

“what if I refuse ?”

Khushi asked suddenly finding her voice, He is asking something which is against her belief, but then he is offering something which she too is craving for a long time now. Yes ! he is asking for something very big, her year old belief,

“don’t  even dare to lie khushi , I can feel it that you too is sailing in the same boat as of mine”

Arnav cupped her face slightly ,

“Lets don’t deny it anymore, you like me and I like you too. What we need is to try this out. Will you?”

Khushi look into the deep chocolate brown eyes , which telling her a lot more than in the surface , but she is confused, what should she do? Should she leave all that and take the path that her heart wants or think logically?

The dropping sound of something broke her revive as she and Arnav move to see what happened.

Little Aada has broken her most favourite toy, and looking like can burst into crying any minute.

And Khushi thanked her god for the distraction for her she literary need time and healthy thinking for sure near Arnav her brain is not working .

So she did what best can be done at the moment, that is to pacify the little baby leaving the Billionaire.
