EPISODE THREE
Omkara woke up feeling the warmth of early morning sunshine in his skin , the chirping of birds to his ears and the sweet smell of sandalwood incsence ... He smiled looking around the room. He got up looking for Gauri, she was not there in the kitchen ... Then he peeped into the bedroom ... His eyes blatantly savoring how only the two hooks of her brassiere were saving her chest but his heart sank comprehending how she was trying to apply turmeric on her injuries, some of which were now bleeding. Without a word or even a sound he stepped in to help her ...
Yeh kar kya rahe hai aap? Gauri almost yelled at him as Omkara started applying the turmeric paste on her upper back. Her eyes shot daggers at him but he did not speak ... She tried to warn him with words in return got his intimidating silence.
His palms and fingers soothing magic in her neck, shoulders, back and then stomach.
Jaaiye yaha se ... Aise chhooiiye mat humme. Gauri's words more of a plead now. Not paying attention to her Omkara held the clasp of her garment to rip it apart from her body because the fitting was causing more painful bleeding to her. Gauri immediately had to pull her kurta kept to her side and hold it close to her chest ... She had a lot to speak to Omkara but right now turmeric being rubbed against her contused skin was a terrible feeling.
Peela rang bohot jachta hain tumpar ... Omkara teased her trying to ease the situation seeing her almost cry because of the pain. Her eyes transfixed somewhere on the floor pattern, she did not want to look at him right now ... Why is he so hard to resist? Exactly what about him is so provoking? She forced her brain into thinking after he left her alone in the room.
JATADHARI JIJU!!! Hearing the cute voice Omkara walked out of the kitchen with a cup of coffee to see a cuter girl who was happily jiggling calling him so ... He smiled seeing her
Aap Gauri Didi ke pati hain naa? Humara naam Meghna hain ... Hum yahi pados mein rehte hain. Didi ne bataya thha humme aapke baare mein, Aap toh sach mein kitne sundar aur susheel dikhte hain! Bohot achha laga aapse milkar. Meghna managed to speak in one breathe as Omkara figured out every punctuation of her little speech.
Gauri mere baare mein baat karti hain? Omkara asked curiously wanting a positive reply for his question.
Waise toh kabhi aapke baare mein baat nahi karti lekin pichhle mahine unhone mandir mein bhang ka prasad khaa liya thha ... Phir kya ... Sab log Shankarji ki Pooja kar rahe thhe ... Woh humaare pass baithke Omkara jaap kar rahi thhi ... Meghna giggled.
It was really fascinating to know about her Omkara jaap, he owned a victorious smirk thinking about her substance influenced behavior ...
Meghna ... Tum yaha itni subah subah? Gauri's sudden appearance and question made Meghna change the topic.
Didi ... Aapko toh pata hain ke humaari sagaai hone waali hain ... Toh humaari sagaai jo kal shaam ko hone waali thhi woh aaj shaam ko ho rahi hain ... Toh aaj shaam ko Omkara jaap na karke humaari sagaai mein aajaaiega. Meghna winked at Gauri. Omkara was staring at Gauri waiting for her reaction but she did not look at him and just said yes to Meghna. Meghna rushed to hug Gauri tightly and left after giving a high five to Omkara.
Gauri started embroidering a royal blue silk fabric which was her gift for Meghna's engagement. Understandingly Omkara went into the kitchen and began with boiling some potatoes and kneading flour planning and preparing for the breakfast.
He noted that even when observing him, Gauri was trying to ignore him.
After some time, Omkara looked out of the kitchen when he heard a male voice from where Gauri was sitting. Not even a moment passed and Omkara could feel how heat was flaring out of his nostrils because ACP Arjun had come to talk to Gauri, something really important and confidential it seemed, both of them were sitting very close to each other. Om's eyes followed how her duppata slid from her shoulder but little did she care, she was talking to Arjun. Omkara went to stand in front of them crossing his arms against his chest not caring how flour graced his face and shirt or how messy his hair looked now. To Arjun's good fortune, the ACP left handing an envelope to Gauri.
Yeh aadmi tumse inti subah kya baat karne aayaa thha? Gauri was able to feel the seething anger in Omkara's question. She had made up her mind to not talk to him after their TURMERIC MOMENT. She chose to ignore him, trying to walk past him just for him to grip her arm and ask her again real furiously ...
Main tumse baat kar raha hoon Gauri, care to listen. Omkara did not care for his temper possessively.
Aapne humse kaha ke hum aapka ghar chhod de, aapse durr ho jaaye ... Sunn liya humne aur maan bhi liya ab humme aapki koi baat nahi sunni aur agar hum humaare ghar mein kisise koi bhi baat kare toh aap kyon tilmila rahe hain ... She questioned him with a single tear now on her cheek.
Uss envelope mein konse important papers hain? Omkara asked wanting to clear his head about all the Arjun meeting and matters
Prem Patra dene aayaa thha woh humme ... Gauri spoke bluntly.
