I woke up in a dimly lit room, my head throbbed, my body ached and when I tried to move I felt the chains tied to my body rattle. I touched my hair just to find that it felt rough and dry like there was dry blood in it, my throat was scratchy and I knew shouting at this point was pointless
-------------------
Kaali pulled his gun down and beckoned me forward, I hated how scared I was of him. Eventually arriving infront of him, he lifted his hand and smacked me across the face, my head flung to the side and I heard Omkara shout
"Step forward and ill shoot you" Kaali shouted
Omkara still stepped forward and I let out a scream as the bullet hit his stomach
I shouted his name and tried to get to him but all I could do was try and fight Kaali's hold on me.
All at once I felt a heavy object being hit on my head, my last thought Omkara and then I passed out in the devil's arms.
-------------------
I heard rustling from the corner and froze, I felt my body still and my heart race. There was nowhere to run this time and I didnt want to anger Kaali. "Gauri"
I blinked, not believing the voice I heard, it was Omkara's voice calling my name
"Omkara"
Kaali stepped out of the shadows
Pressing the stop button on the tape recorder he smiled
"Wheres Omkara"
He stepped forward grabbing my hair, "If you want out of these chains then you wont say his name again"
I nodded sadly, all I could do is pray Omkara was safe and far away from Kaali and I
Even if only a short while, Omkara taught me a lot about happiness and the world and for that I would always be greatful.
But I wanted his safety more than anything else, and as long as he was alive I had no complaints anymore, its said you can live your whole life in just a few memorable moments and I would use the memories of Omkara to live my life.
I was relieved when the chains were removed from my ankles and I could stood up. Kaali looked at me, kissing my forehead he looked down at me "You have put me through a lot but its okay because the one person that was in our way now is not"
"What do you mean" my voice was thick with fear, I didnt want to hear what his next words would be
"Omkara is dead"
-------------------
Gauri wasnt sure what had come over her but she couldnt control herself, jumping onto Kaali with a scream they fell to the floor. Lifting her hands she punched him in the face multiple times, "First my mother now Omkara, I hate you"
Kaali turned Gauri over so he was ontop of her and put his fingers around her throat
"You dont know what you're saying Gauri, you will never realise how much I love you, you will always be mine"
Gauri's face paled, she gasped for breath then pushed her hand down, grabbed his gun and kicked him off of her with her knees
Jumping up she pointed the gun "Move one inch and ill shoot, isnt that what you said to Omkara"
Gauri pulled the trigger and the bullet hit Kaali's knee, he shouted, groaned in pain and then rolled over
"You bitch"
"You're a murderer, give me one reason why I shouldnt finish this now"
Kaali's eyes widened, his body trembled "No, dont do it, dont"
Gauri threw the gun down angrily, it hit Kaali and she ran past him and out of the room
"Catch her" Kaali shouted
Gauri ran as fast as she could, through the corridor and outside, she looked back at the man behind her and jumped over the brick wall, running into the road, she jumped onto the back of an open top lorry, led down and closed her eyes, finally free but for how long
What was the point of living when there was no one to live for, she wiped her eyes, she couldnt think this way, Omkara and her mother would want her to be happy, so for them she would be happy.
