Chapter 1
Omkara wasn't able to concentrate on the sculpture he has been trying to make from the past few weeks..seems like he lost all his inspiration to create art..he cannot concentrate on his paintings and sculptures anymore..all he can think about are the changes of his life...
He had to join business much to his annoyance..he wasn't left with any other option when Svetlana continuously started asking the promised hundred crore from him ..he needs to give her the money as soon as possible..she'll not stay with him and return to his father if he fails to give her the money..
But even if he gives the money will she stop blackmailing him..?? Will his father stop running behind Svetlana..?? Will his mother get her husband's love..??
He knows very well that Svetlana will not be satisfied with just hundred crore..neither his father will forget Svetlana so soon and start love his mother..but he cannot voice the truth before anyone...
He saw his mother shedding tears..he saw her pleading before her husband and his so called father...he saw her drowning into addiction of alcohol..she never deserved the kind of treatment she has got from her husband..and he promised himself that he'll do everything to give her the happiness she truly deserves...
He has been doing every possible thing from the past three months to save his parents marriage..and announcing Svetlana his would be wife was the worst thing he has ever done in his whole life..Svetlana was the woman who ruined his mother's life, his childhood, his adolescence..and now she's hell bent on destroying his whole life..
Sometimes he just wants to run away from everything..but then he remembers his mother's tear stained face, the burn marks in her body, the crummy state of her and he stays back tolerating everything..
Last three months were the worst days of his life..he had to get engaged to Svetlana..he had to leave his passion, his art and he had to marry a girl whom he hates to the core...he cannot even think of accepting her as his wife..for him she's nothing less than Svetlana..she's the mistress of another Tej Singh Oberoi..all she care about is money..she's a woman with no principle and loyalty..she ran away from her own marriage..but why did she run..?? Wasn't she the one who danced happily around Kali Thakur..?! Wasn't she the one who was smiling and celebrating when Jhanvi Thakur burnt herself alive..?! Wasn't she the one who was ready to marry a already married Kaali Thakur and his three brothers..??
His mind screamed yes..but his heart wasn't ready to accept..he saw purity in her eyes..he saw that pain in her eyes when he accused her of being a characterless woman..her last words were still fresh in his mind..she advised him to not judge anyone before knowing everything about the situation.. Is he judging her without even knowing her state..?? Is there any other part of the story which he doesn't know..?? Is he wrong about her...??
His mind is saying she's a vile woman..but his heart cannot agree..it is not ready to accept what his mind is shrieking..he never faced a situation like this...he always thought from his heart..yes he got hurt many times by following his heart..but listening to his mind never let him rest in peace..even now he was feeling restless for what he has done to Gauri listening to his mind..since the day he came back from Bareilly there was a battle between his mind and heart..and he wasn't knowing if his mind is right or his heart..it is difficult for him to live like this..he wants to end the chapter of Gauri from his life..he'll surely find an answer and thus he decided to to get every information about Gauri Kumari Sharma...wiping the sloppy clay from his hands he searched for his phone hurriedly..
"Khanna, mujhe Gauri Kumari Sharma ke bare mein sab information chahiye...", growled a restless Omkara..
"Sure sir..just give me a few hours..."
"Okay..but make sure it's only between you and me..", he said hesitant..
"Don't worry sir..", Khanna assured him..
Omkara was sure Khanna will get him every single information of the woman named Gauri Kumari Sharma..but he was restless..he could feel his heart thumping against his chest for something he didn't know...
He was lost in his thoughts when Svetlana entered his room..
"Kya hain..?", he asked disinterested..
"Kuch nehi, baby..main toh tumse aise hi milne agayi..", she smiled making him more irritated.."Aur yeh kya..?? Tum aab tak taiyyaar nehi huye..?? Sham ko hi humara roka hain..remember..??"
He closed his eyes..taking a deep breath to calm himself, he said, "Mujhe yaad hain..aur waqt aane pe main taiyyar bhi ho jaunga..now can you please leave me alone..??"
"Chalo..jab tum itna pyaar se bol rahe ho toh main tumhe akela chhod hi deti hoon..par bohot jald humari shaadi hone wali hain..aur uske baad tum mujhse dur bhag nehi paoge..", she left smirking..
The thought of marrying Svetlana was killing him from inside..but there's nothing he can do..if he refuse to marry her she'll return to his father..and cannot let this happen..he cannot let her ruin his mother's life..he'll marry Svetlana may what comes..
It was already evening and Omkara was called downstairs by Svetlana for the roka ceremony..he reluctantly got ready and started moving his feet when Khanna knocked his door..
"Sir, here's the file with the details of Gauri Kumari Sharma.."
"Thank you so much, Khanna..you can leave now..", Omkara said taking the file..
Khanna left nodding..
Omkara was feeling scared..he somehow knew that the file contains something which is going to bring a change in his life..he was scared that if he find Gauri innocent then he'll not be able to forgive himself for accusing a pure soul..but if Gauri is proven guilty he'll not be able to take it..he always prioritised his heart over his brain..and if this time his brain wins he'll be ashamed of himself for listening to his heart..
Gathering much courage he opened the file and the information written in bold letters in the paper were enough to shake his whole existence...
