Prologue

She sat on the beach looking deep into the waters as the waves came back and forth upon the soft sand She was in Goa . Khushi had a tear roll down her eye. She sat there thinking of what happened and how her life took such a big turn.

Shashi bosses son Kartic Kriplan saw her the other day when she came to drop those papers to her dads office and he told Khushi’s father that she would be perfect daughter in law. He had asked her hand in marriage for his son Garima and Shashi thought that it was right time and right house for her to get married they are rich and well to do and have alot of name in the society.  Khushi who had immense trust and faith in her Devi Maya and her parents accepted the marriage proposal. She too wanted a Prince Charming one who is smart strong and very protective of her. May be this boy that her parents had chosen for her was her prince. At least she thought that before they got married. 

Another tear rolled down as she remembered how quick the wedding preparations went. She had met her future husband he seemed ok he didnt talk much though. She had a glimps of him in every function that took place. There was happiness and she decided that she would accept her new life with a smiling face. She believed in her Devi Maya and her parents and if they have chosen him for her he must be right. But what she didnt know was that her husband did not wan this marriage and did not wan to give it a chance the way she did.

Flash back

They had just gotten married and had entered their room Khushi was getting goose bumps feeling a bit nervous and very scared. The door clicked his walked in she clutched her knee to her heart. He shut the door and sat on the bed and she looked down shy. He looked at her for a brief second and then removed the vail she kept looking down. He lifted her chin up and she looked at him and then he said

Kartic: Look dont get me wrong I know your my wife but there is something i have to tell you

Khushi looked at him all confused and then he continued

Kartic: Khushi I never wanted to marry you. I only did it for my parents

Khushi heart got shattered she remained quite

Kartic: Your not the kind of girl I can see my self with. Your traditional and I am not I am modern and I wanted a modern girl to be my wife. Some one who is smart educated and dresses well

Khushi felt a bit offended at that and she looked angry but still remained quite

Kartic: I do not accept you as my wife because you dont have the qualities that i am looking for. (he paused and looked at her and then said) Look  this is an act and I am just pretending to be your husband in front of every one but behind closed doors your nothing to me. You are on your own get it (he said frankly)

Khushi: (who was silent for so long finally spoke) Is there no way that this marriage can work. I mean we can try to make it work cant we

Kartic: I am sorry it cant your not my type

Saying that he picked up the pillow and the quilt and went to the near by chair and fell asleep.

Khushi looked at him all night wondering what to do. But finally came to the conclusion that at least from her end she would make this marriage work. Rest she left up to Devi Maya.

Flash back ended

The sun  started to set Khushi remembered how she tried hard to make things work for them. But Kartic was as stubborn as a mule. Their honey moon got candled as Kartic made the excuse that he had lots of work in his office and couldnt go. A few months passed by for outsiders they were husband and wife but from within they were just strangers. In these few moths Khushi tried to be an excellent daughter in law to his family. She never gave up hope on Kartic. He would shout at her yell at her for convincing him still she would smile over the whole thing. But nothing worked

One fine day her father in law insisted that they take a holiday saying that there is not too much work. He noticed that Khushi wasnt too happy with Kartic and so he decided they needed some time together. He booked tickets to Goa and they left for their impending Honeymoon.

Flash back

As they reached Goa Khushi started to unpack her clothes along with his. He was on the bed. She went up to him and asked him

Khushi: Kartic I am hungry what are we doing for dinner

Kartic: Khushi look I am going out with some friends. You order food here in the room

Khushi: (paused for a second and then said) But cant I come with you too I never met your friends before

Kartic: (left out a mean chuckle and said) You what will you come and do. We are going to a club and will be dancing all night.

Khushi: So I can dance (she said cutely)

Kartic: Sure you can. And tell me what do you plan to wear you cant come in this salwar to a club Khushi.

Khushi: But Kartic whats the big deal I just want to spend time with you. If you want I can wear those short dresses (she suggested)

Kartic: Let it be stay here and eat I am leaving. If I take you, you will embarrass me in front of my friends

Saying that he left in anger.

Flash back ends

Meanwhile Arnav Singh Raizada sat there on the very same beach surrounded by a group of hyper hysterical women. Who he was trying so hard to get rid of. Arnav a rich business tycoon and one of the most eligible bachelors finally decided to take a holiday and come down to Goa curtsy to his sisters who forced him into it saying that he needed one and that they would join him the next week.

Arnav: Ladies please calm down

Girl 1: Oh ASR its so good to see you here. Can you please take us on your private yacht

Girl 2: Yes that would be just wonderful its a perfect weather for it

Arnav: Hmm may be

The women were talking among each other when suddenly Arnav spotted her. He couldnt take his eyes of her. He looked at her closely. She sat on the sand in a salwar kurta. Wait a minute salwar in Goa. He thought to himself. He continued to look at her she looked sad and heart broken. One of the girls who saw him look so closely at the unknown girl said in disgrace

Girl3: Ewwwwwe Look at that girl she is wearing a salwar in Goa and that to on the beach

Girl4: Omg What pathetic fashion sense she has

Girl 2: Why is she all alone is she sad

Arnav: Yeah she is (he looked closely at her)

Girl 1: Who cares I mean who would want to be with her.

Arnav: (still keeping his eye on her said) Excuse me ladies

Saying that he walked towards her and sat down next to her.

Khushi who was in deep thought didnt notice the girls got irritated and left from there. Arnav sat there for a good 2 minutes and then said in a husky voice

Arnav: Its so beautiful isnt it

Khushi came out of her trance she looked to her side to find a young good looking man sitting next to her watching the seascape. He was shirtless and had an amazing body. He had a cute stubble and was wearing sun glass. Khushi looked at him all muddled up and confused

Arnav: The seascape (he smirked)

Khushi nodded still lost and confused and then Arnav said

Arnav: Hey I am ASR (he put his hand out)

She gave him a dazed look

Arnav: I mean Arnav Singh Raizada

She nodded and said in a soft voice

Khushi: Khushi

He smirked and nodded he loved her name. there was a weird silence and then he asked

Arnav: What are you doing here all alone

Khushi: Nothing (she paused and said) Look I am married ok I really should not be talking to you I must leave

Arnav: So I dont care if your married I saw you sitting on the beach sad and so I came to ask you

Khushi: I understand but I think I better leave

Saying that she got up from the beach and left leaving Arnav a bit confused on what just happened and who this girl was. But what ever it was he defiantly had noticed her and he didn't know why she created a mark in his heart. There was something special about her that just made him want to see her more.
