Thank you dear.. Please keep reading..😊

Hi pooru.. Thanks dear for such a detailed analysis.. Am very sorry i couldn't comment on your stories .. i have marked them.. will read all at once and comment maroongi.. 😆

She is stubborn because of her love for him, which she is yet to acknowledge anyway. She thinks he deserves a much better girl who has less complicated upbringing or lineage since its something which will affects the family status (given they are oberoi's) and the children. These are some real practical issues which we combat in day to day lives. Its his efforts which will bring her out of her insecurities and fears.. So that's the line.. 😊

Thank you so much dearie..

Oh yeah.. @bold, she doesnt stand a chance..😆

Svet is the culprit.. I have no intentions to drag Tej since he is beyond redemption. I have ideas for him in one of chapters of family reunion.. Hmm.. lets see

hi dear.. i kind of try to mix romance, emotions, fun, desperation, highs and lows all in my FF's. Thats how my previous FF have also been. It makes it interesting..

Thanks for your interest.. and keep reading..!!😊

Hey dear..

Gauri is rejecting this relationship because of her own reasons.. her own insecurities and fears. She fears falling in love.. (though she has already!!).

I have maintained the kidnap rescue all with absolute reality and less heroicness.. Like how it happens in real life.. Reel main bahut kuch drama dikha raha hain in show.. 😆

10 flavours.. i am ready wtih flavours.. bas order confusing hain.. i have sort out the order..

I am thinking of pulling some famous scenes from famous movies..😆

Machi..😆 You are from chennai??

Yup.. for a change i thought why dont we see a "Devoted" Omkaara and a commitment phobic Gauri.. This is what it will look like. 😆

Rescue hogi.. aur toda sa washroom romance.. 😉

It had to be Svetlana.. Omkara thought with murderous rage.. She made it clear the day she left that she will harm her and here she is doing what she said.

Omkaara's piece of soul was drifting away every passing minute. Gauri's phone has been snatched by kidnappers but her security alert system came in hand even in switched off state. They tracked the device location and ACP had narrowed in on the location where she could have been possibly kept.

"Mr. Omkaara. We are going into the site blind. You have to stay here. We can't allow to come in there unarmed. And if your wife is alive, we will make every efforts to save her life"

Omkaara's soul had a lightning jolt. He was shaken for life at the words that could possibly be true at this horrifying circumstances. His life was dangling in a single ray of hope but he can't be in here.

"Mr. Bindra please allow me to come in. I will search for her in whatever way possible. I will help you. Please I can't be in here" His almost teary voice was very evident.

"Mr. Oberoi, I can understand your feelings sir. But this is dangerous. They can have possible weapons and they are goons. We have to start firing if required and we can't plan an operation with an outsider. So please stay safe in the car" the team left for the operation while Omkaara sat and hoped he would see Gauri alive. He was scared beyond senses to even think if she had to undergo any horrifying crimes as seen in the news recently. His every bone, every nerve shook with fear.. Fear of losing his most precious possession on earth, of his entire life. He never knew he was this madly in love with her and all he wanted her to be alive to make her believe that.

After an hour long assault, a rushed stampings, running and a thud here and there, ACP Bindra came carrying a petite figure in his hands. Omkaara's heart stopped at seeing her bruises in legs, chin and arms. But something was striking him. Why is she not opening her eyes..? Is she unconscious? Or is she.. His mind stopped thinking completely.. He rushed out of the car and got his precious possession in his hands. His heart in the eyes, ACP bindra understood his raging fear.

"Mr. Oberoi, relax she is alive. Looks like they had beaten her since she refused to tone down while trying to gag her to a piece of furniture. But overall as you suggested, it was Svetlana indeed and we had captured 2 out of the 3. Remaining 1 fled. First we have to take her to hospital for the doctor to examine her"

Omkaara couldn't see his tiny piece of heaven in this state. Tears rolled down his cheek, which fell on her. ACP Bindra took the situation in control and they rushed her to hospital.

Omkaara stood with bated breath when she was being examined. He was not sure, when she will regain consciousness and wanted to make sure she is safe and fine. After long moments, Doctor came out and gave him piece of happy news. Gauri had regained consciousness and had suffered only minor injuries. She had been given sedative pills and she had started to sleep. Omkaara wanted to take her out of this place and ACP bindra suggested it too.

Omkaara didn't want to take her home at this dead of night. He didn't want Jhanvi or house guards to see Gauri in this state. Her clothers were torn at sleeves and legs and she was looking bruised. ACP suggested him to stop by a famous hotel on the way and his men were at patrol outside. He wanted change of clothes for her and asked his manager Khanna to send her clothes along, from Mansion. He warned him not to leak this info to Jhanvi and asked him to just inform her that Gauri is safe and so is he.

Gauri woke up after a brief sedation. Her head was spinning and she started to realize the pain. She opened her eyes only to see her very concerned husband caressing her forehead with all the love in the world. She couldn't believe she saw him again after the horrifying ordeal that she went through. The men asked her to call him and had plans to finish him and her after extracting money. She refused to call that's when she had to endure all this physical blows. Her voice came out weak.

"Om"

Omkaara's manifested fear and relief came outside as he bent down to hug her.

"You scared me for life. Ab bas kuch mat kaho. Main tumhaari bekaar ki batein sunne ke liye tayyar nahi hoon" He said in caution thinking she might again start off at walking away from him.

"Meri baatein aapko bekaar lagti hain" She thought of making the mood light

"Only when you talk about moving away from me" He brushed his nose on her shoulders

"Teek hain, to paas aane ki bare mein baat kar sakthi hoon kya?" Despite her battered and bruised state, she was elated to be back in her Jatadhaari's arms.

"Hmm.. sirf baat hi karna hai tumhe?"

"Nahi.."

"Phir..?"

"Aapko aise dekhna bhi hain" she lifted his face and was looking into his chocolate orb eyes, smiling.

"Sirf dekhthe rahooge?"

"Haan man bhar bhar ke.. pata hain.. kitna darr gayi main ki aaj ki baad aapko dekh hi nahi paaongi.." Her eyes reflected the fear of the past moment.

He closed her mouth.. "Bas aur kuch nahi kahoge. Tumhe dekhna hain.. Dekh lo jitna dekhna hain. mujhe bhi dekhna hain. Meri pyaari biwi ko.." He was playing with her hair strands and smiling.

"Pichle chaar din se mujhse baatein kiye bina ghoom rahe the naa aap. Aisa ghoor ghoor ke" she tried to imitate the way he stared at her.

"Acha.. aise situation aayi kyun thi. Tumhaari wajah se. Ab kuch nahi chalega. Tum mere saath raho ya na raho, ghar mein raho. Main dobara tumhaari life risk mein nahi daal saktha. Main tumhe jaane nahi doonga, samjhi"

"OOO mujhe dar sa lag raha hain" She was laughing at his stern expression

"Has rahi ho" He started laughing too

"Teek hain, ab hatiye.. Main todi clean up kar lethi hoon. I want to take bath. Poore mitti hain aur gandi smell aa rahi hain"

"Gauri the doctor said the bandage on your legs needed to be dry and you can't take bath"

"Par omkaara ji aap dekh rahe hain na.. meri halat.. aise kaise reh sakthi main. Mujhe ek help kijiye.. Washroom tak chod aayiye.."

"Itna zid kyun kar rahi ho. Tum chal nahi sakthi, tumhaari wounds are deep in legs. Aur tumhe iss raat ko nahana hain? Seriously Gauri. Kal subah naha lo.. your clothes will be here in sometime, sirf change kar lo"

"Par yeh gandi badboo.. chi.. main aise nahi reh sakthi hoon .. aap kyun nahi samajh rahe"

"Kitna zid kar rahi ho..how will you take bath without getting your legs getting wet."

"Main ek plastic sheet se cover karloongi"

"tumhaari right hand bhi wounded hain. You can't stand under shower.Bath tub mein pani fill karke bhi nahi bath kar sakthi kyunki you have to keep your legs dry. How will you take bath?" He asked pissed off at her adamancy.

"Main kuch bhi karke nahaloongi..aap mujhe waha chod dijiye naa"

Seeing she is not gonna relent, he asked "Tumhe nahana hain na..I will help you take bath. Tum khud nahi kar paogi kyunki you have 12 minor injuries and the injury on right leg is slightly big one. Mansoor hain to chal main washroom leke jaoonga?"

"Aap .. kya.. nahi nahi" Her eyes popped out.

"Agar manzoor nahi hain.. you will not take bath"

".."

"Mujhe patha hain you don't consider me as your husband. And tum comfortable nahi ho mere saath. Main koi help ko bula letha hoon.. yahan hotel mein ladies honge attend karne ke liye. I will call them" He said with a plain face and went on to pick up the receiver.

Something in his voice affected her very much and she held his hand from calling. Afterall he is the one, she yearned to see for one last time, thinking this was her last day. She laughed inside at his words. Little does he know, the effect of his one touch, on her?

"Zaroori nahi"

"Phir..?" his raised eyebrows posed question with the glint in his eyes.

"Aap mujhe uthake washroom le jayiye" She didn't know how to control her blush.

She is bruised and they are just out of a kidnap drama. Situations are traumatizing enough for him and her to feel serious and panicky, but here she is blushing in his arms as he carried her to bathe her. No place in this earth is safer than his arms, she thought.
Omkaara was looking at her blushing face and couldn't get enough of it. It's strange enough that he is feeling all this, given his condition two hours ago. This woman is capable of showing hell and heaven in the same day, he thought.

He made her stand, and wrapped her with a bigger towel which ran from her shoulders till her thighs. He knew she is not comfortable in him seeing her yet, and decided to step away. She faced her back and removed her top and all the garments while he held the towel as a wrap. She wrapped the towel around while he was making arrangements for her to sit. He made a seat with the bin that was around, inside the bathtub and made her sit with her legs on the frame of the tub, so that it doesn't get wet. Her nervousness was evident as she sat with just a towel wrapped around. His eyes were having a feast of its own while he kept his face plain and composed in order to ease her nervousness a little. She seemed to be controlled by the power of his eyes, as she let him clean up without any struggle. He washed her hair with so much gentleness while she closed her eyes to feel all the pain in her body running away with his magical touch. She felt at home when he caressed and there s nothing undeniably alien. She belongs to him!!

She just stood staring at him or standing like a statue, while he wiped her, covered her hair up with a towel and wrapped a bath robe encapsuling her, so that she removed the wet towel. She removed it being fully aware that not once he looked towards her while changing and he made sure she felt comfortable by looking away and keeping distance. He is a sweetheart, he really is.. She thought.

He carried her to the bed, dried her hair, and wiped her wounds dry and applied ointments. He had kneeled over to take her legs in his hand and was applying ointments over it. She couldn't help but caress his hair over his bent head. He looked upon surprised.

"Pata hain.. yeh wala kab hua tha?" She pointed at the bruise

"Kab?" his eyes reflected pain.

"Wo goonda mujhe aap ko phone lagane ke liye keh raha tha. Taaki aap yahan aaye aur aapko bhi yeh log captive rakhe. I said, "Agar maarna hain toh mujhe maaro. Main omkaara ji ko nahi bulaoongi. Maine apni phone ko pheka and phone broke into pieces. Wo log bahut gussa hogaye and they hit me in the leg" She had serious face while he hugged her, petrified.

"Its my mistake, gauri. I should have been more careful. Svetlana se. I took it a little lightly. Am very sorry.." he buried his head in her shoulders while she caressed his hair

"Omkaara ji.. aap ki koi galti nahi. Kisko pata hain, Svetlana yeh sab karegi. aap ko phone lagane ke liye Wo log mujhe dhamki deh rahe the. Aapki pic Jo tha, phone mein, Maine usse aakhri baar dekha aur phone phek diya. Meri aakhri icha wahi thi, photo hi sahi aapko dekh liya.." She was reminiscing those emotional moments which could have been supposedly her last moments.

He saw her in her eyes, with a deep intense gaze and held her face in his hands

"Tum mujhe pati mano ya na mano, Par you are my wife till the end of life. Agar tum iss shaadi se walk out karna chahthi ho, tumhaari marzi. Par there is no place for any other girl in my life. Yeh meri aakhri decision hain. tumhe kahin jaane ki zaroorat nahi. Agar tum nahi maanna chahthi ho to na sahi, par tum ghar nahi chodegi, samjhi tum. Wo ghar jitna mera hain utna tumhaari bhi hain"

She wasn't sure whether she was shocked or flattered to hear this.

"Omkaara ji yeh kya keh rahe hain aap? Aap ke liye kahin zyaada behtar ladkiya.." He stopped her midway.

"Please Gauri.. I don't want to hear all this. If you don't want me, it's ok. But I don't want any other girl, either. So lets leave it at that.." His face reflected immense hurt and pain.

I was ready to throw away my life for you and you think I don't want you..? She couldn't explain what she felt..

"Yeh le pills. Ab so jao. Pills will make you drowsy"

She took the pills and just then they heard a knock at the door. The help came with her dresses. He handed over her dresses to her.

"Tum change kar lo. I will come in some time" He closed the door and went out for a brief 10 min while she changed. When he came back, she was making preparations for them to sleep.

"Tum so jao. I will lie down in recliner"

Gauri's face fell. Is he angry at her?

She looked at him while he was setting up the recliner.

"Om.. please"

He turned at the soft yearning voice that he can't even resist in his dreams. She had extended her hand, in a gesture for him to sleep along with her.

He looked at her deeply for a moment. He couldn't resist those yearning doe shaped eyes of hers, while his hand extended to hers, involuntarily

He went and lied down beside her. While he displayed a weak restraint from cudlling up to her, she did the opposite. She took his arms and wrapped it around her and cuddled inside him while he gave up his restraint fully. She slept peacefully as he watched her with a smile, not knowing when he slipped into a peaceful slumber.
