Chapter 12

Khushi was dead tired and needed some rest. They walked for long Arnav decided its time to go home so that she could sleep and also he had some mails to take care off. They went back home. Khushi decided to go for a warm shower so that she loosens up a bit. Arnav was on his laptop as always. When she came out of the shower she saw him looking at his screen angrily. She went up to him and asked him sweetly

Khushi: Arnavji is there a problem why do you look so upset (she said innocently)

Arnav: (looked up and asked confused) Huh

Khushi: Why are u upset did something happen

Arnav: Ahh no its some business stuff

Khushi: Ohk Arnavji can I help

Arnav: (rolling his eyes he said) Khushi its some business stuff ok You wont know anything

Khushi: (putting her hand on her hip she said) Excuse me but i can handle business... I am a halwai's daughter Arnavji when i was at Babuji shop i would single handily handle the preparation of sweets and the cash register ok. (she said cutely as she scrunched her eyes)

Arnav could swear how much he wanted to kiss her at this point she looked adorable. But then he smirked an idea came to his mind and he said to her in a husky voice

Arnav: (raising his eye brows he said) Ok so you can handle it

Khsuhi: Yes i can

Arnav: (taking her hand towards him he pulled her close and made her sit on his thigh and said) Thats the problem (he said pointing at the screen)

Khushi looked at the computer screen to see huge numbers some what like in a tabular format, She had no idea what they were. She got a bit nervous but then she looked at him back

Arnav: SO can you solve it

Khushi: (trying to show she is brave said) Yes I can... As soon as I figure out what these numbers are for... (she said scared)

Arnav: Hah see I told you can't understand it.... Khushi these things are beyond you

Khushi: Arnavji (she yelled) Explain to me what these numbers are and then I will show you how smart I am... (She looked down at their baby and said) Dont worry Baby we are going to win this...Your mother is also as smart as your dad (she smiled and patted her unborn child)

Arnav: (smirked she was really cute..She was adorable. But he decided to play along with it and so he pointed at the screen and said) See those set off numbers those are the number of pieces that we have to deliver... And that set of numbers are the styles that have to be completed

Khushi: Styles ??

Arnav: Yeah well we offer  varieties of styles of clothing... Some shirts some blouses some dresses

Khushi: Ohk  (Khushi looked at the she concentrated hard Arnav was really loosing control, then she said) Arnavji oh so there are so many styles these are the number of pieces and thats the delivery dates

Arnav: Yeah (he nodded his head)

Khushi: So whats the problem then

Arnav: Look at the dates genius... We can't deliver so many pieces in two days its took less we need at least a week... The workers are not willing to work so long

Khsuhi: Hmm I understand your right.. But we request the buyers for an extension

Arnav: We can and i will but if they dont listen we need an alternative

Khushi: we can request the workers na Arnavji if the buyers dont listen I am sure they will understand

Arnav: We tried but the union is saying no.. Akash can't handle the situation by himself

Khsuhi: Arnavji talk to othe workers politely and request them then they will listen

Arnav: Khsuhi this is work ok politeness doesn't work (he said irritated)

Khsuhi: Arnavji politeness and kindness will take you more places that arrogance (she said with a smile)

Arnav: What ever (he said rolling his eyes, then he said) Aren't you suppose to be sleeping.

Khushi: (putting her tongue out he said) Yeah but i am not sleepy..

Arnav: (picked her up and placed her on the bed, he tucked her in and then said) Go to bed

Khushi: (nodded) Dont worry Arnavji It will be all fine and if nothing I am always with you.... We will solve it together... I will stay up all night and stitch if u like (she smiled)

Arnav: (was quite touched with what he said he smiled softly and then said ) We will managed Khsuhi you dont worry.. You and the baby need rest

Khushi nodded and then shut her eyes falling instantly to sleep. He saw the little angel sleeping and his heart urged him to plant a soft kiss on her forehead. He looked down and the baby and placed his hand in it and said said softly

Arnav: (talking to his baby he said) Your mother is right Kindness will take you places and arrogance wont....

Saying that he left from the room with his phone and then called up Akash to set up a video conference with a large projector at the factory. He spoke to the workers and requested them kindly and to his surprise they agreed....

He went back to the room to see Khushi fast asleep he smiled and then got into his side of the bed.. pulling the sleeping figure close to him he placed a hand on her belly to comfort his baby and cuddled Khushi to keep her warm. He was satisfied and happy he slowly spoke to the sleeping figure and said

Arnav: Thank you

Saying that he too drifted away to sleep marking the night as a start to the future.Dawn broke into the sky and the birds began to chirp to glory waking Khsuhi up she rubbed her eyes and felt a weight on her stomach. She knew it was Arnav's hand he must want to communicate with the baby at night. She turned the other way and looked towards him. He looked so cute with messy hair and a calm look on his face. She could stay like this forever with him. In his warm tight little embrace. Everything was perfect. Arnav stifled a bit and opened his eyes gently to see Khsuh indirectly looking at him. He couldn't register what was happening but he could hear her say

Khsuhi: Arnavji are you ok ?? What happened ?? Did your problem get solved ?? Did the buyers listen?? What did the workers say ?? (she asked in one big huge breath)

Arnav: (confused he got up and held her shoulder and said) Calm down everything is fine... DOnt worry we handled it 

Khsuhi: (taking a breath she said) Oh thank god I was so worried.. Arnavji I am so happy it got solved but how did u solve it 

Arnav: (hesitating he said) We managed (he said vaguely)

Khsuhi: (She nodded her head but from inside she understood he took her advice.) Arnavji come I will make you breakfast, Why dont you go and freshen up 

Arnav: Where is Carlata she can make breakfast (he asked)

Khsuhi: She wanted the day off for today... I can manage dont worry.. I am pregnant not old (she said sarcastically)

He rolled his eyes and got off the bed and then went to the bathroom. In the mean time she went down to make his toast and orange juice ready just the way he likes it. She was in a rather good mood today morning everything was going fine. She was humming a little song when suddenly the door bell rang and she went to open it... And there he was she was shocked...
