They reached royal china both sister in laws were having a
warm conversation, anjili and khushi gre very close apart from being sister in
laws they were good friends and would often share the happenings in their lives
with each other, arnav was one lucky man to have his sister and wife get along
so well,
As they indulged in a steaming hot basket of dumplings they
spoke freely with each other
Anjili: so khushi, hows things going,
Khushi: good di, actually great,
Anjili: good I am glad, khushi I am so happy that chottey
has become warm hearted again, he has changed only because of you
Khushi: di, he is aa really nice husband, I always thank
devi maya for him, he is all I have I love him a lot, and I know he loves me
too,
Anjili smiled and then khushi said
Khushi: di if you don’t mind me asking you something
Anjili: what khushi
Khushi: di how come you nd ritesh jijaji are meeting so
often, I mean I don’t mean to pry but arnav and I were just wondering (she said
in a normal casual voice)
Anjili: (a bit hesitant said) oh well, you know we are
friends and were catching up after so long that’s all (she blushed)
Khushi: (smiling) hmm di are you sure (she lifted her eye
brow)
Anjili: (a bit nervous) well ya I mean, we are just good
friends
Khushi: then why are you blushing
Anjili started to get nervous again, as she fiddled with the
chopsticks and khushi enjoyed her discomfort then khushi took the chopstick
from her hand, she held it across the table and said in a loving tone
Khushi: di, you know what you can tell me anything, I mean
we are just not sister in laws but friends
Anjili smiled at khushi’s genuine behavior and then khushi
said
Khushi: so di would you like to share your thoughts with me
Anjili: (paused for a minute, thought for two seconds and
then said) well khushi, there is something
As soon as khushi heard that, the spirit in her started to
gear up, she was now exited, Anjili on the other hand had butterflies in her
stomach but she decided to tell khushi, she needed to talk to some one and who
better than khushi who was so understanding and thoughtful
Anjili: well you know it all started on the day we bumped
into each other at the marine plaza on that night
Khushi: on the day you two got stuck in the lift
Anjili: ya, when we were stuck in that lift both of us were
so scared, but I guess we pulled through it with each other, that day we had a
really meaningful conversation, we hadn’t spoken like that ever since we got
divorced, and truth to be told khushi I am glad we did, because after that we
decided to be friends, and then from there on we spoke to each other every
night and all the time sometimes he would whatsapp me or I would test him,
Khushi: wow did that’s great
Anjili: (smiled) yes it is, you know I am surprised he has
changed a bit, you know he knows how to cook, and not just ordinary cooking
fine dine cooking, he makes the best orange chocolate cake,
Khushi: yum that sounds interesting
Anjili: ya I know, every night we would meet for coffee at
Al’s when you and chottey had gone for holiday, and trust me it was great, we
would talk for hours on all sorts of things, It was truly fun, we didn’t
realize that we were even divorced
Khushi continued to listen and Anjili said
Anjili: then that night when we bumped into you and chottey,
something happened
Khushi: what (curious)
Anjili: well when chottey said that if we were thinking of
reconciling then both ritesh and I felt akward because we had spoken about
everything but that, and then when he dropped me home he said something which
is the biggest turning point in my life
Khushi: and whats that di
Anjili: well, he said that after talking to chottey he
realized that it would be a bad idea to reconcile our marriage, and so he re
proposed to me
Khushi: (smiling with excitement) omg di that’s great,this
sounds so nice, you must be so happy wow
Anjili: khushi I didn’t say anything as yet,
Khushi: (looked shocked) why di,
Anjili: well he told me that I should take my time and
answer him on Monday, khushi the thing is that I am also happy that he has
decided to reconcile but I am a bit scared (she said worried)
Khushi: why di, ritesh seems so nice, I think he is perfect
for you
Anjili: ya I know but I am worried what if things sont work
out, what if again we start fighting I don’t want to end this badly
Khushi: (took a deep breath and then said) di honestly I
think whatever is happening is happening for the best, i think this is an
opportunity for you to settle back in life, di be positive I think it will all
work out and you should say yes
Anjili: khushi I don’t know, lets see, like I said I need
time, and then there is this other thing bothering me
Khushi: whats that
Anjili: well nani is trying hard to set me up with other
business men in London, she is trying hard to find me someone else and I am not
keen on that, i know she means well but still its making it hard for me to
decide
Khushi: di forget about everything, I’ll tell you something
just do what ever your heart decides trust me, I know the heart is always
right,
Anjili: khushi can I ask you something if you don’t mind
Khushi: yes di sure you can ask me anything
Anjili: how did you know chottey was the man you wanted to
marry, I mean when he proposed how ddi you react
Khushi: (smiled and had a flash back off when arnav
proposed) well di to be honest, arnav and I always had a connection, when ever
we would come close to each other our hearts would start beating faster and
faster, at first I thought it was acidity
Anjili: (burst out laughing) are you serious
Khushi: (blushed) ya how did I know it was love, I was so
new to it, but then when we spend time in Barbados we grew closer and closer
and that’s what made me realize that I love him, in fact we confessed to each
other when we were drunk, and then a month later when he proposed to me I knew
at that time only that this was right, my gut feeling told me to just take the
leap, and I did things worked so nice for both of us, in fact for all three of
us
Anjili: so that means my little Barbados set up worked ha
Khushi: what do you mean?
Anjili: well khushi
you know it was mine and nk’s idea to set you two up, I remember that the day
you came for the charity function, at that time only I realized you 2 had a
connection, and I knew you needed time alone so nk and I decided to take
advantage of the news paper scam and sent you to Barbados
Khushi: (stunned and shocked) are you serious di
Anjilil nodded and then khushi said
Khushi: well di in that case thank you so much because of
your plan we are together
Anjili smiled at her, then
khushi tried to convince Anjili that saying yes to ritesh was the right thing
to do,
