Hey guys... My new FF from Gauri and Kali's POV. Its about Gauri who leaves Mithila after she deeply regrets everything she's done to Kali and Yug. She meets someone special there. She slowly tries to accept love and forgive herself. On the on the other hand leela orders KaYu to go look for Gauri as she is still the bahu of their house. KaYu slowly fall back in love and experience a great adventure. Please comment what you think. The first part is from Gauri's POV. The other child isn't in this. And I still haven't decided on a official name for the new guy in Gauri's life... If you guys have any ideas please help.


GAURI

I walked lifelessly on the empty road towards the bus stop, suitcase in hand and the burden of my deeds on my shoulders. Not a single tear fell. Not a single word came. I just walked, still alive but dead on the inside. There was a hollow feeling inside of me, like my soul had already left and now it was just my body remaining, carrying the weight of my wrong doings. There was so much I regretted. So much. I couldn't think of all the people I had hurt in my life. Those I claimed to love and those I had once loved. Those who had loved me regardless of the monster I had become. I barely recognised the person I had become. I hurt them all. I couldn't face them anymore and I couldn't even face myself. So I had decided to leave. Go far, far away from here. I arrived at the bus stop and sat down on the empty bench. I stood the suitcase in front of me and gazed onto the road. Completely empty. Not a single soul in sight. Good. I couldn't face anyone anyways. I closed my eyes. Still no tears came. I wanted to cry and scream so badly. Just let it all out. But I couldn't even do that anymore. Like I deserved the pain I was in right now. I shut my eyes tighter and imagined Yug's face. His brown eyes and brown hair. The deep dimples in his cheeks. I ruined so many peoples lives to get him. Even his. Yet here I was all alone. Without him and without everyone else I loved. I didn't at all regret not getting him. No. That wasn't what was eating me up from the inside. I regretted hurting my best friend. My sister. My Kali. I had become so blind over my obsession that I had badly hurt the one person who had dedicated her whole life to protecting me. How could I have been so selfish? I tried to kill her, killed her unborn child, stole her husband from her and what not. I'd harmed her in ways one could only imagine. Yet she saw innocence in me. She saw the best in everyone. She was just like that. I didn't regret not being with Yug right now. I regretted disappointing the one person who had complete faith in me. I heard the honk of a bus and opened my eyes. The bus had arrived. I had no plans on where I was going or how I was going to survive. I just needed to get away. I didn't even think about where I would live in such a big city like Mumbai. I stood up and grabbed the handle to my suitcase. I pushed away the thoughts and walked towards the bus. I climbed the stairs that led me inside, struggling with my heavy suitcase. Once on the bus, I walked to an empty seat in the second last row. I put my suitcase under my seat and slid into the seat next to the window. The bus was almost full and I was surrounded by the noise of people talking. It helped me relax. No one knew me here and no one was here to judge me because of the horrible person I am. I was deep in my thoughts but I felt someone sit down next me. I didn't bother to look.The bus slowly started moving and picked up speed quite quickly. The last time I had been on a public bus was with Kali. When I snuck off to Patna and almost got kidnapped. I smiled at the thought. She saved me that day just like she had saved me from the beginning. And then there was me. I did nothing for her. Instead I took everything away from her and let her empty handed. This morning I had decided to return it to her. I found out Naina was my daughter yesterday. But I let Kali keep her. That was the least I could do. Besides I wanted my child to be proud of her parents. Not sink down in shame. Yug was always Kali's. I could see the love for her in his eyes even when he was with me. The bus suddenly took a sharp turn and I darted sideways into the arms of the guy sitting next to me. My head hit his chest. I would've fell on his lap if he hadn't held my hand in his. I looked up at him. Our faces were so close that I could feel his slow breaths on my neck. I looked at him for a while and he stared right back at me, a surprised expression on his face. If I were in this moment two years ago,I would've said he was cute. Not that I didn't think so at the moment. My mind pushed away from the guilt of my reality and I simply stared at him. Right into his beautiful brown eyes.
"Are you okay?.." He asked, still staring at me. My right hand was still resting on his chest and my left hand still in his. I blinked back to reality and pulled away from him. He gave me an awkward smile.
"Yeah I'm fine. Sorry" I said quietly. I turned back to the window.
"So where are you going?" He asked. I looked back at him. He asked me the one question I was trying to avoid. Sooner or later I had to think about it but not right now.
"Mumbai." I bluntly answered.
"Oh same here. Looks like we're in this together." He said, smiling. I looked at him again. For some reason that statement made me smile. Like i wasn't alone in my misery for a second.But for a second only.
I tried to avoid having a conversation with him for as long as I could. An hour passed by and I just stared out the window.
"You seem like you're in deep thought. What's on your mind? It looks like something's really bothering you. You can, um, talk about it to me. If you want." He said after a while. I turned to look at him, surprised. Again he smiled and I had butterflies in my stomach. I had never been nervous around anyone for my whole life. This was new.
"Um no. Nothing's wrong." I said, still gazing out the window. I had tried to stop thinking about it. Now the thoughts came flowing back. I felt a tear roll down my cheek. I let it because I wanted to let go. I kept my eyes on the road outside the window, feeling his eyes on me. Rain now starting to pour down hard outside. A memory came to me. Me and Kali when we were around 7. Playing outside in the rain. I missed Manji maa. Even though I wasn't as close to her as Kali, I still missed her when she first left. I had started to cry hard in the rain and Kali comforted me. I didn't even think once about her silent tears. The ones that always blended in with the rain. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I snapped back to reality and realized I was sobbing out loud. The guy sitting next to me put his hands on my shoulders and turned me to face him. I tried to stop crying, sobbing but now the tears just wouldn't stop. I kept my eyes down while he looked at me with what seemed like worry in his eyes.
"Hey are you crying... It's ok. It'll be okay." He quietly said.
"No it won't. I ruined everything. It'll never be okay again." I said taking deep breaths to calm myself down. I looked up at him.
"Yes it will. It's always be okay in the end. I don't know what you're going through so I can't say much. But I'll say this." He moved his hands from my shoulders and cupped my face in his hands. He slowly ran his thumbs over my cheeks to wipe my tears.
"You have to be strong. Your strength is the only thing that will keep you going. Things happen and you always get through them. Trust me. Everything will be okay. YOU will be okay." He smiled and though tears were still flowing down my cheeks like the rain outside, I smiled too and nodded lightly.
So here I was. Gauri Jha. On a bus off to Mumbai with no idea of what the future held for me. Regrets and worries surrounding me and a boy sitting next to me who might've just stolen my heart. But this time for real.

Kali
I looked out the window as the familiar streets of Mithila passed by us, leaving themselves behind. The ones Gauri and I had played on, laughed on. The rain blurred my view and I wiped the window clean with my hand just to get a better look at the city I grew up in with Gauri. When we were younger everything had been so much easier. Why did we even grow up? Why couldn't our childhood have lasted just a little longer? Why couldn't our bond have lasted a little longer? Why couldn't I just hold the Gauri that was lost inside the body of this woman one more time and share my happiness and pain with her? Just like I used to when I was younger. I couldn't even recognize this Gauri anymore. I had to repeatedly remind myself that this is the same little girl that used to play with me in the rain and splash water on me. Then throw her head up and laugh really hard. Then she would come and wipe the water off my face with her cute pink dress. Where had my Gauri gone? I didn't even remember when I started losing her. I wish I could've stopped herself from becoming who she was today. Or maybe who she had been yesterday. Because after yesterday, my heart is telling me something else. I saw a glimpse of my Gauri yesterday. When I told her that Naina was her daughter. She was so happy and at the same time crying. When I saw her playing with her daughter I saw the lost innocence in her eyes. For the past few days, she had been acting... Lost. Like a piece of her had broken and now there wasn't much left for her in Mithila anyways. Maybe what she did this morning wasn't just a thought she had overnight. But it seemed as if for the past few days she had wanted to leave this reality and go far far away. She gave Naina back to me despite knowing the truth. I was speechless. But this act of hers did give me hope that maybe just maybe I might find my Gauri again.
My eyes felt wet but I blinked away the tears. I heard Yug shuffling in the driver's seat. I guessed he wanted to say something. He had always moved uncomfortably in his seat whenever he had something to say. Without looking away from the window, I sighed and spoke.
"Need to say something Yug?" I asked. I turned to face him. It was hard to digest the fact that someone who once had no problem sharing anything with you could now have to think twice before they said something. I didn't want it to be like this. I wanted it to be like before when we stayed up all night talking about our feelings. Not like this.
"What? No. Nothing." He said looking at me for a second before he turned his eyes back to the road. I didn't turn away though. I stared at him and smiled. He was so stubborn. At least that hadn't changed. I kept staring at him while he drove silently, his eyes glued to the road. He was wearing a nice blue shirt with a black leather jacket on top with the typical jeans. Yet for some reason I just couldn't keep my eyes off of him. He looked at me and quickly turned back to the window. But from the corner my eye, I could've sworn I saw him smile.
***
This morning when I woke up, I had found Naina lying in the crib next to my bed, fast asleep. I knew something was wrong. I had gotten up and headed straight to Gauri's room. I barged into her room as the door was open. Empty. I went back to my room and took Naina with me downstairs. The living room, kitchen, everytinhg was empty as well. I saw Yug coming in through the front door. I walked up to him and asked him where everyone had gone.
"Gauri left. She just left the house while we were all asleep. All her clothes are gone and Dadi is really worried. A guard saw her ask the rickshaw guy to take her to the bus station. So everyone's out looking for her." He said. I was shocked at the moment. Just then, Dadiji barged into the room. Yug and I turned to look.
"Hey! This all happened because of you Kali. This is your fault." Dadiji screamed. Typical Dadiji. Blaming me for everything that goes wrong. I stayed quite.
"She is still the daughter in law of this house. I want you two to go find her. Leave by the afternoon for Mumbai. She took a bus to Mumbai so she must've gone there. Pack you stuff right now" She said. Yug and I looked at each other. We both were equally shocked and we both knew this was going to be an adventure we wouldn't forget.
* * *
We arrived at the luxury hotel. It was almost completely dark now. Yug and I both had one suitcase since we didn't want or expect this to be a long trip. The suitcase stood between us as we both looked up at the multi story hotel. We both reached for the suitcase handle and quickly took our hands back when they touched the other's. We looked at each other and stared into each others eyes for a few seconds.I turned away and broke the eyelock.
"Um I'll take it." Yug said to me. I nodded walking towards the hotel. Yug caught up to me and pulled the door open for me. I looked up at his face and saw a hint of a smile. I smiled back and entered the hotel. Yug walked in front of me to the hotel clerk.
"Hi. We have a booking for two rooms for the next week. I'm Yug Chaudhry and this is..." Yug looked back at me. The hotel clerk looked confused. I stared again into his beautiful brown eyes waiting for his response. He turned back to the lady.
"My wife. This is my wife. Mrs. Kali Yug Chaudhry." He finally said. My heart skipped a beat. I tried to stop feeling this way. Mrs. Kali Yug Chaudhry. I couldn't help but smile.
"I'm sorry Mr.Yug. But we only have one room available. Although you did book two rooms, one is out of service. But its okay right? You are husband and wife. You'll be alright sharing a room. Am I correct?" The hotel clerk answered. She looked from me to Yug. My heart skipped a beat again. I felt my stomach turn. Being called Yug's wife was one thing. But sharing a room with him... It had been so long since we had been in one room. I didn't know what to say. Yug turned around again to me. He looked just as surprised and freaked out as me. He waited on me for an answer which I didn't have. A long minute later he realized I wasn't going to say anything. He turned back to the clerk.
"I guess we don't have any other option. We'll.. Um.. Take it." I looked up at him. He still faced away from me but I could tell he felt afraid to be so close to me again. I felt the same. The last time we had been in one room together, we were so completely and utterly in love. Now everything was so different. It was just awkward. But me being me, I had hope for our love. I wanted everything to go back to how it once was. That was one thing I didn't know if Yug agreed upon.
"Alright then. Here you go." The lady said as she handed Yug the key to our room. Our room. Yug turned around to me and signaled for me to follow him. He held the suitcase and rolled it behind him. We got in the elevator. Our room was on the 6th floor. Yug pressed the button and we looked at each other again for a split second before turning away. The elevator door opened and I stepped outside, with Yug right behind me. The hallway was beautiful, with red walls and white carpets. Yug led the way to the room. He put in the key and opened the door. I walked in behind him. The room was very large with a king sized bed in the middle. There was a huge window on the side and a door which probably led to the washroom. There was a fancy cupboard on the next to the door. Yug and i were stunned at the beauty of the room.I felt Yug look at me, then he grabbed the suitcase and put it under the bed. I walked over to the huge window. The view was beautiful outside. The sun was setting and the skies were a lovely orange. I felt Yug come up behind me. He stood right behind me, standing so close to me that I could feel the warmth of his presence. So close yet so far. I gasped quietly.
"It's so beautiful isn't it?" He asked.
"Yeah. It is. It really is." I replied. We stood there for a long time. Just staring off into the sunset. Standing so close to each other. And what i wanted more than anything was the moment to last longer.

Hope you liked it!

You are two for two with these updates - I loved the second just as much as the first.👏

The realism of Kali POV is much appreciated, as great a sucker for a happy ending that I am, I realize that this couple have a long way to go before they can get there after all that has occurred. I am looking forward to their journey as you envision it.

Notwithstanding that I do prefer this Jodi over Gauri and Yug, I am also looking forward to Gauri's POV and how hopefully a true love helps complete her road to redemption...if that is the route you plan on taking.

Well done...and please update soon😊

Thank you so much. You're so sweet 👏 I really appreciate your comments.
Yep Kali and Yug do have a long way to go and their journey in my FF is one that should be memorable. 😊
I want to show that Gauri once split them apart and now while they're looking for her, she'll bring them together 😛
I do plan a true love leading to her complete redemption... And I really wishCVs show something like this on the show.
Thank you again and I will update very soon 👏
