Episode: 5 PLAYFUL KISS ````````````````````````````````` Episode 4 https://facebook/permalink.php?story_fbid=802370746473477&id=779820662061819 ******************************************************************************* Arnav tells her to prove it. What does she propose, and how will she show it? Gulp. Khushi can’t back down now, so she says she’ll score high enough in the next exam to score one of those seats in special study hall. Clearly not believing she can do it, Arnav agrees to carry her piggyback for one lap around school if she succeeds. Internally, Khushi does a little giddy dance at the prospect of being carried on his back, then tamps that down to coolly agree. Thanks to the news broadcast about the earthquake wrecking their house, Dad’s old friend had seen him on TV and called him to offer his house while the Khushis dad figure out what to do. Dad is thrilled to be reuniting with his old best friend, with whom he’d lost contact after they’d moved to Seoul. `````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` When they arrive, Khushi marvels at the grand house; his friend must be a rich man. Dad’s friend is Sashi, who is married to Garima, both of whom are very friendly and give Khushi a warm welcome. When Sashi notes that she’s “even prettier in person,” Garima has to fess up that she was so curious about her that she couldn’t wait and sought her out at school this morning. Khushi recognizes her as the mysterious photographer outside the school. Garima offers the services of her son to bring their luggage in, and sends him outside to the car where Khushi is gathering her things. And really, it’s no surprise at all when the two kiddos discover just who they’re about to spend the next days, weeks, months, living with. Khushi reels from the shock of seeing Arnav, of all people, standing in front of her. He cocks his head sideways, taunting her like the bully that he is. Heh, well I suppose if you’re going to be mean, I’d rather you own up to it rather than be oblivious to the fact that you’re making her squirm. I have to say, I sort of like him mean, because it’s definitely a step up from bland. He offers to help carry her bags, but then glibly reminds her that she swore up and down never to receive any of his help. All she can do is shake her head at him, and then privately freak out over this unfortunate series of events. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The family sits down for introductions, and the dads confirm that they were as close as two boys could be. Their friendship is adorable. Mom asks Khushi if Arnav is disliked at school, supposing that people don’t like his prickly personality and the way he looks down on others. She can’t disagree, so she smiles awkwardly. Arnav’s little brother turns out to be a Aarav version of him. Great. Just what the world needs. He refuses to greet Khushi because she “looks dumb.” Mom takes Khushi upstairs to her new room, which she has redecorated expressly for her. Khushi can’t believe such a pretty room is all for her, and Mom squeals in excitement over having a daughter in the house to buy pretty things for, and hang out with. Aw, they’re so cute. At least she’s got one ally in the family. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Arnav gripes at her for causing him inconvenience—now that she has this room, the two brothers have to share a room. He tells her to stop bugging him at school, and she declares that she wouldn’t want people to know that they’re living together anyway. He corrects her that they’re not living together; she’s living off his family. That sends her into a fantasy tirade Matrix-style, where she accosts him with two pink pillows, dressed in black patent leather from head to toe. She pillow-attacks him till he bleeds and cowers in fear, all the while taking out her aggression on the pillows in her room, shouting, “Well I hate smart guys like you!” At that moment, Arnav steps out of the bathroom and into her doorway, sending her to the floor in mortification. In the bathroom, Khushi sits down the toilet and giggles to herself that it’s warm, and that they’re in a toilet-sharing relationship now. She can’t actually manage to do her business for fear of noise, and when she catches herself cooing over their matching toothbrushes, she tries to talk some sense into herself, that he doesn’t like her and she shouldn’t bother him. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ will contu..... PRECAP: Arnav looks at her like she’s a fly, announcing that they can walk to school together just this once, and tells her not to start any rumors at school.
