Chapter 30

(the above edit credit goes to me..)

Khushi-Arnavji!

And instantly opened her eyes as a warm gust of wind blew her open hair, which carried HIS smell with it.. She stood up with a rush in her heartbeats..

Looking around smiling in confusion she knew.. Arnav was just around! Yeah, her heartbeats increased indicating, ASR reached!

She was growing weak now, knowing that her Arnavji had come to save her.. She craved for him, even more now.. She was not getting what to do? She was not able to speak anything.. 

Where was he? Was he even here? Ya, she cant be wrong, her heartbeat cant be wrong.. He was here.. 

But then, how far was he?

She wanted to run out and rush in his arms, but knowing now that he was just around, feeling him near her, she was loosing herself in the trust of that hope, that he will find her.. She was suddenly feeling dependent.. She had to be a little more calm, she cant disturb anything in her over excitement, that will make them part again, anyway she was loosing her strength by now..

Khushi (self talk)-Arnavji..

She hardly whispered his name in her heart, and sat down again, with a disappointed face.. She had to wait, she had to be patient.. She looked down taking his name again now..

*

'Arnavji..'

Arnav felt his Khushi calling him, his heart heard her call..

It was just a minute or two that Arnav and Veer had reached the Godown Area.. They were still outside.. Veer was covering Arnav who was just speeding his energies to meet his mate, Khushi..

Feeling her voice calling him, he gasped and stood still.. He replied mouthing..

'Khushi..'

*

Khushi looked up as if she heard her husband call her again, and smiled to herself..

Khushi (self talk)-Baby, ur papa is here, we are safe now.. Just wait, Arnavji is coming..

  

Khushi smiled in relief and pampered her invisible baby bump.. It was almost dark now, except the one bulb which was glowing over Khushi's head.. Pulling her knees close to her chest, she calmed herself and whispered..

Khushi (self talk)-Arnavji.. Come fast plz, am waiting, we both are waiting..

*

Arnav thought he heard his wife again and a faint smile appeared his lips.. He knew she had full faith in him, and he would never let that down.. He looked ahead as Veer asked him to come with him.. The other Police Constables were asked to cover all sides of the Godown, so that the Suspect (Shyam), could not run by any chance..

Veer entered the Godown with three other Police Men, where as ASR stood still for a few seconds and went inside, but in the opposite direction to where Veer just went.. The Godown was big, and it was almost all dark..

Arnav's heart skipped a beat as he suddenly realised how much Khushi went through in one day.. He felt goose bumps imagining Khushi's fears and her tears for being forced to stay the dark, that too in such a situation..

But above all that, Khushi was so strong.. Yet ASR regretted to make it so late, even if it was the same day he reached her as he promised himself.. He should have made it earlier..

But NO, he should never have let this thing happen.. Damm..

He remembered her saying to him one..

*Flash Back*

Khushi-Arnavji, Aap hai, toh hame duniya ki koi parvah nahi hai.. Aap sath hai, toh hum duniya se ladd jayenge.. Bas humse waada kijiye, ke aap kabhi bi hamara saath nahi chodenge.. (Arnavji, if u are with me, then I dont care about the world.. If u are with me, I can fight the world.. Just promise me, u would never leave me..)

*Flash Back*

All he was looking for in this dark, was his only piece of happiness, his wife..

Arnav-Dont worry Khushi, I remember my promise.. I am here..

***

Khushi's eyes were dropping down in tiredness.. She was too sleepy, but she could not sleep.. What if her Arnavji came after her falling in sleep, and left finding her no where? No, she wanted to go home, their home.. With her Arnavji..

She rubbed her eyes trying to stay awake and stood up..

Khushi-Arnavji.. I know u are around somewhere, I just know.. We am here.. Plz find us.. I cant take it anymore..

She referred herself and their baby.. She looked around and with a hope of faith in her heart, she leaned on the wall.. She touched the wall, as if trying to feel him over her imaginations..

*

Arnav suddenly felt he heard her, ya.. Arnav heard Khushi..

Arnav-Khushi? KHUSHI..

He felt her around and again took her name loudly..

Arnav-KHUSHI.. Where are u?

*

Khushi heard him, she did! It was really her Arnavji.. Yes he was here.. Just around..

She roamed in the small room in excitement.. She wanted to yell she was here, just around, but voice dint come out of her throat.. She was so happy to confirm her husband was here.. She was too happy to speak anything..

She just kept smiling and looking around with open mouth trying to call his name out..

*

Arnav saw a small ray of light coming inside the Dark room he was standing, and looked UP to see a small ventilator.. He ran there and found a small stool a feet away.. He kept that stool below the ventilator and climbed up to see what made him still.. 

She was there, his Khushi was there.. Tears immediately wet his eyes and his voice chocked..

Arnav-Khushi!

He could not explain how blessed he felt.. Finally, he found her.. Yes he did!

He wanted to jump towards her that very moment.. YES.. He was seeing her.. She was just a few steps away.. Yes..

He saw Khushi across the room and as he called her name, she turned around to see him.. Her heart almost came out of her chest..

 

He was UP, looking at her from the ventilator above.. She smiled broad and gasped with a shine in her eyes to see him here.. She knew he would find her.. And her heart was not wrong that he was here.. She smiled closing her eyes and shut her eyes shut to let out the tears her inside were pouring.. She was all happy, restless, too much anxious, and suddenly calm..

Pressing her hands on her heart, she relaxed and opened her eyes still crying and smiling together.. She looked up..

Voice was still not coming out of her mouth, and she extended her arms up for him to take her with him, but..

But, the ventilator was sealed..  Her smile dropped and so did his.. Khushi climbed UP taking a stool from her side and shivered while climbing above it.. Hyper ASR yelled..

ASR-Careful Khushi..!

Khushi finally reached him, who reached her.. Holding the grill of the ventilator, she let out her fingers on the other side, trying to reach him.. He too met his fingers with hers and entangled over them on her's, over the grill.. She was sobbing in counts, staring him, and he just spoke in a calm tone..

Arnav-Khushi.. I - - I am sorry, thodi deer ho gayi.. PAUSE.. Par maine tumhe dundh hei liya.. (I made it too late na? PAUSE.. But see, I found u.. ) I am here Khushi.. U see, I found u.. Khushi..

She was noding in anticipation, still crying hard and he knew they were tears of relief for he had found her.. He tried to hold her hand and asked again..

 

Arnav-Khushi, are u alright? Tell me.. 

She nodded a NO and he closed his eyes in sigh.. 

She pressed her fingers over his and he opened his eyes.. He longed to hear something from her..

Arnav-Speak something now.. I am here, I will take u from here.. PAUSE.. Khushi, u trust me na..?

She nodded a YES thinning her lips.. And now her tears found rest..

 She was at rest..

He felt her pulling the ventilator and felt the same urge she was having, to finish all the hindrances and take her in his arms and steal her from this world just for him, forever..

But he got hyper..

Arnav-DON'T.. Tumhe lagg jayegi.. Mai karta hu.. (U don't do that.. U may get hurt, I will do that..)

She stopped struggling to pull that grill apart, and he asked her to get down.. She got down silently trying to maintain the balance she was loosing now.. He saw her getting down and applied all his strength to pull that grill out and reach her ASAP.. But, he just could not..

***

Inspector Veer and his team, who were on the other side of this Dark Godown, saw dark shadow (someone) leaving this place from the back entrance, and Smart Veer figured out who it was.. It was Shyam Mahohar Jha, the Real Culprit..

Shyam was still unaware of the Police reaching him, and he was normally going out, when suddenly Mr. Khan (the owner of this Godown) was pushed inside that Dark room from the Back Side Exit which Shyam used to Go Out and Get In this place.. Shyam's face turned pale, and he was stood rooted.. The lights went ON and he turned around to get shocked and found himself covered from all around, by Men in Green Uniforms, by Police..

Shyam was so stunned to move.. Hugging the file in his hands, he shivered even to stand still on his feet..

Veer came near Shyam and held his nape in anger, and before Shyam could realise, he was down crawling on the ground holding his legs.. Inspector Veer just kicked him in his nuts.. Shyam could not think of how and when the Police had reached here, and he was not in a position to stand up either.. Veer snatched the Property File from his hands and looked at him in anger..

Shyam, who was rolling on floor, saw Veer's shoe coming towards him and felt a big time weight on his stomach.. Shyam cried in pain and rolled on his stomach..

Veer-Finally we caught u Shyam Jha.. U cant run away this time, its better u Surrender urself.. (looking at a constable..) Arrest him..

The constable nodded going towards Shyam and, Veer took steps towards Mr. Khan to whom this Godown belonged..

Veer-Mr. Khan, am not sorry to tell u, that this Godown shall be sealed now..  Also, u are under arrest for helping a criminal in his unethical activities and providing ur Godown for the same..

 And Veer hand-cuffed Mr. Khan..

In all this, no one noticed that the constable who was just about to arrest Shyam, was pushed on the nearby wall and made unconscious.. Shyam snatched his gun and went towards Veer from behind..

***

Arnav's strength was not working, and above that, Khushi was not speaking anything.. He tried to pull the grill for the last time and his palms went red due to the same.. He could not pull it, and he looked on the other side to see what made his heart skip a beat.. He saw Khushi holding her head and closing her eyes.. Her eye-brows frowned and her body was dancing not able to stay steady..

Arnav-Khushi.. Khushi..

His eyes went big and he knew she was done being strong.. That's it.. He could not wait a second to see her bear the pain she could.. Feeling an adrenal rush in his nerves, he yelled in pain and pulled the grill in a go..

He saw Khushi trying hard to keep her eyes open and look up at him.. She heard the noise of some metal falling down, and saw he removed the grill which parted them and steadied herself.. He was here now, nothing left to fear.. No Loneliness, No Dark, No Shyam.. Arnav made it.. She smiled composing herself.. She gulped breathing in relief..

 Her breathing still uneasy..

Arnav jumped towards her side of the Room and fell too far.. His jump was long.. Khushi steadied her legs as Arnav stood up and saw him standing up, and opening his arms for her.. Wasting no time, she smiled and ran in his arms and gasped loudly in pain..

Her strong rush made him take two steps behind, but he balanced himself.. He was more than happy to have found her, more than contented, to feel her inside his arms.. She pressed her body above his and he carried her up from the ground.. Her hug crushing his bones apart, and he hugged her back tightly to make her feel secure.. He was restless too untill now, and he enveloped her inside him  never to let go..

Arnav-Khushi!

They both felt complete, being finally together again.. It was a moment to live, to start to live again.. He gulped the lump in his throat and closed his eyes.. Her eyes were closed too, tired of sobbing and calmed to finally be stress free inside him.. She again gasped aloud, before she finally spoke..

Khushi-Take us home Arnavji.. Our home..

And she lost her conscious falling in weak in his security..
