So this one is going to be a little different. You might observe changes in Omkara and Gauri's characters. This Short Story has no relation to Dil boley oberoi or Ishqbaaz.
For PMs, buddy this account.

|| Prologue ||
A girl always has some expectations and dreams about her prince charming. They do not come true and she finds and entirely different person taking the place of her dream prince.
Gauri also had had thought about how her prince would be but, well, she never imagined it would be him.

It was a Sunday and gauri was, as usual dreaming about her prince charming, always believing in those fairy tales she used to hear when she was young. She saw him on a horse, coming for her, to sweep her off her feet. He came out of smoke, like in movies, and she was about to see his face but suddenly the horse stumbled, she was horrified that her prince fell, in a distance a bell rang, being insistently annoying, she covered her ears and closed her eyes only to open them and find herself staring at the ceiling of her room. "gosh, I was just about to see his face, damn this alarm" she cursed the clock and got up.

Gauri lived with her mom-dad, Mr. Raghavendra Sharma and Mrs. Nandini Sharma. She also had a sister, now married and a mother, Mrs. Anika Singh Oberoi wife of Mr. Shivaay singh Oberoi, her brother-in-law. It's been six years to their wedding and they have a little bundle of joy and craziness, Anya Singh Oberoi.
Both of their families are rich and have known each other since forever. Gauri has finished her fashion designing course and is taking a holiday after one year of working under a known designer.
Today they were- including the oberois- were going to Shimla for a vacation, to their family home, that's what the oldies of both families wanted. The home belonged to gauri's grandparents and she had grown up there but every corner of that place had memories of him, thinking about going back after six years- was giving her mix feelings because he was going to be there. The infamous, Mr. Omkara singh Oberoi and she hated him, there was a time when they used to be good friends. Every time that she thought of him she could remember that night...

She was sleeping peacefully on her bed when Om barged into her room in the middle of the night and lay down on her bed to sleep, he grabbed her blanket and pulled. Gauri opened her eyes to see his face, she smiled seeing him so near but the moment she realised he really was there, she sprang out of her bed with the blanket held tightly by her hands, covering herself.
"om? What are you doing here?" she whisper yelled at him but he didn't budge so she tried again "om? Don't you have any manners? Don't you know that shouldn't enter a girl's room like that and getting into her bed like this, its bad manners." She hit his arm.
Om got frustrated because he wasn't able to sleep. The walls were too thin in this place. First, he couldn't sleep because his parents were having a lovey dovey argument which he really wasn't interested in hearing, an now this girl wasn't letting him sleep.
"oh come on gauri, we are friends and I need to sleep, badly. Just lie down and go back to sleep." He told her irritated that she wasn't listening.
"no! you go back to your room, I don't care if you can't sleep" she yelled again and started throwing pillows, cusions and stuffed toys at him.
Having had enough of her yelling and throwing fit, he suddenly came out of bed and stood in front of her. Gauri was stunned by his sudden movements and stumbled back a few steps only to bump into the wall behind her.
Now that she could see his face, glowing in the moonlight that came through the window, she could see his bed hair which was sexy and his facial hair made him look so handsome. She was so lost in him that she didn't realise that he took a few steps towards her now extremely close to her. Her breathe hitched in her throat and her hold on the blanket loosened. The blanket fell to the floor and that's when om really looked at her..

"ugghh" gauri closed her eyes and shook her head, " no gauri, don't think about those things, bad memories, remember? Bad memories." She told herself to forget it.
Gauri's mom enters her room that very moment and tells her to get ready and come down. " and wear something nice gauri, The Oberois will be there you know right?" and she left.
"fine, but I am going to stay away from him, I won't let that happen again." she makes a promise to herself.
