"Gauri u r 25 now, you are having a nice job and panditji also told its time for u to marry my mother told me as I was eating breakfast. "Some more curry maa. My mother slapped my arms "Ouch what. "I m serious this time, panditji told in this August u will get married so I m going to search for groom. "Its all your department maa, search for groom if u all like I ll marry. "What do u mean by you all. "you know right the 4 people important in my life is u anika di shivaay jiju and mera bubblu, if u all like then I m ready to marry him.

Maa :"Its not us, u r gonna live with him , so u shud have some likes dislikes. I just smiled "Ok maa time to go.

And that's my mother Pinky Sharma, like every mother always worried for her children, first she was tensed for anika di's future, when she got a good husband and sasural and a cutie chubby bubblu she was relieved, now she is behind me to make me settle, always she say if u get settled to a nice home I m stress free, Mothers and stress free doesn't go hand in hand right. First maa said she is stress free till I get a job, when I became lecturer in a college now she say achi shaadi mil jaaye bas, and after marriage ofcourse babies then tension for their grandchildren, our mother's tension goes on. In a way she is right its time for me to settle right , 25 years, because of that pandit I was saved for 2 years.

"Omkara Singh Oberoi the name I m trying to forget for the last 5 years and still talking about him.It started as a simple school crush but he became a part of my life without being a part, confused right, actually no need of confusion u guessed it right he is my first love which I hesitate to admit in front of all even if all understand it, all means all who know about him, hmm my sister, shivaay jiju, my bestie bhavya, ridhima my college friend tia, phir my cousin richa. He was 1 year senior to me in school,I haven't talk to him in school, after school when I created account in social media he sent me friendship request,since I dint expected his request on the second day of my social media life I accidently accepted it with accepting all other request, after accepting only I saw his name, the biggest mistake of my life though sweet mistake, we chatted, I was crazy about him, actually I am. My feelings for him I cannot explain in words, I love chatting with him arguing with him, making him loose in arguing, but I know he has a girl friend still I couldn't stop loving him. Whenever he come in front of me I m like spell bound. Whatever I try to say ulta hi nikalta hein yaar. But I have been successful in hiding my feelings from him.Fortunately or unfortunately his girl friend Ishana Kapoor and I were in same college.I don't know its lucky or unlucky to get information about your love from his girl friend, but I enjoy it, ishana telling his details to me, gradually I chatted less to him but whenever I try to cut contact with him like a boomerang he comes back with some or other reasons, I dnt feel bad when I see him with ishana nor I have prayed to break them up like my friends do.i love how he is happy with ishana, the way he stare her when she goes on talking. Yeahh I have went to meet him with ishana once in his college. But as he was standing beside me and talking to ishana all misunderstood I m his girl friend. The unforgettable day in my life, the day he first held my hand as I was going to fall. Now its been 2 years I have talked to him and ishana thinking I will move on. But absence make heart grow fonder right,its high time I should accept the fact I cannot forget him. I don't know loving him and marrying someone else is possible. But if shankarji has made a decision it will be for my good only.

After few days maa said someone is coming to see me.whenever maa say about proposal his thought cross my mind.Maa said "Uska profile toh dekh le ek baar. Rolling my eyes I looked at the profile. My eyes widened as if it would come out of my socket now. Did she just show me the profile of omkara singh oberoi.

Maa:Kya hua tujhe, pata hein ladka handsome hein par itna kya goorna

G:Maa yeh omkara singh oberoi likha hein na

Maa:Chashma lagake bhi teek se pad nahi sakti, vahi likha hein, ho kya gaya tujhe

G:Yeh kaise ho sakta hein

Thousands of questions in my mind. Omkaras profile in matrimony.How is it even possible.He love ishana and as far as I know he had said about her to his family.Then this proposal?What about ishana, she had told me she will invite me for her marriage. Shankarji, What had happened in these two years.Like every girl I also made conference call to my alter egos Ridz and Bhavs.

Ridz:What? Omkara ka proposal sach mein

G:Haan

Bhavya:Humare prayer success hua, dekha meine kaha tha un dono ka break up hoga, koi match hi nahi thi yaar, tum ho uskeliye perfect

G:He had a break up? But y they were perfect together. How painful it might be for him.may b I m over thinking.he must have put the profile due to family pressure.He may come and say to reject the proposal na

B R hit their head

B: Stop it Ri. You meet him on Sunday then we will decide

Sunday.People relax on Sunday I m here very nervous and excited. Nervous because what am I supposed to talk to him or ask him, I m not even sure I would be able to listen to him coz u know right how it feel to stand in front of your love. I first thought may be I feel nervous and tensed to talk to every boy but talking to my colleagues I understood he is special. Excited to see him after two long years.Dont know what shankarji has kept for me.

A:Chutki they had come.Are u ready

Di looked me from head to toe and hugged me

A:I m happy for u. You are gonna talk to your love.

I nodded.I don't have hope he ll marry me. Why to keep expectation and get disappointed. I went down to living room. There he was sitting in the couch beside his mother talking to jiju since dad is not there jiju is the head of the family right.Jhatadhari hippie in a check shirt and jeans.He seem like not at all interested.I told you he will reject me.He looks the same no change except little more seriousness.His mother saw me coming and actions him to see me.He looked at me he was looking wide eye I was like what happened.

Omkara:Gauri?this is your home?

All looks at him frowning

Maa: You know my daughter?

O:Ofcourse aunty we were friends I mean are friends

Maa looked at me wide eye as I have never mentioned about him to her.I looked and see in the other couch was his naughty brother Rudy and his father Tej Singh Oberoi.Rudy dint like ishana, as bhavya say he is also in break up ishom team.I have only talked to him twice and he had said he likes me as a sister.

I greeted everyone and sat beside his mother.

Maa:If you both wanna talk alone you can go

Omkara nodded.Shankarji nervous time starts now,being alone with him?I don't know what will happen. Ok gauri control.I took a deep breath

Maa:Gauri take him to the garden

I nodded and he stood up and said "After you

I looked at him his smile has gone, so he had a break up?But how,How can I ask him such personal question.I went and he followed me.We reached the garden and we sat on the chair.I gave him the tea I made.

O:Wont u drink?

G:Vo

O:Ohh yeahh u don't drink tea

He remembered it?

He was drinking tea

O:Gauri

I looked at him

G:Hmm

O:I need to tell u something

I knew it he will now say to reject him as he love ishana.I nodded ready to hear it

O:Ishana and I broke up

I looked wide eye at him

O: Its not anybodys fault.She was having family pressure to marry last year.I was not well settled that time and she couldn't wait for me. I tried to talk to her parents but her parents was not interested

Did he just say Ishanas parents was not interested.I mean whats wrong with them.who would let go such a person.May be I should have gone to convince ishanas parents.Yeah its true bhavya ridz would have killed me still he will be happy right

O:So she married someone else,I don't know was it easy for her to move on, but I couldn't till now,I just came to see you due to moms insistence and I dint know its you.

I was lookin at him.Though he don't say I can feel his pain.Why shankarji ,always I pray to keep him happy but now he is very lost

O:I just wanna say I don't know whether I can love you.I need time, but I promise I will be a faithful husband and a good friend for you.I wont force you to marry me and you don't want to accept this proposal thinking I might feel bad,I wont feel bad.I m happy I could meet you after so long

This is my most favourite quality in him.Honesty.He say what in his mind whether its anger or sadness or anything.yeah sometimes its annoying still its good right.He looked at me

O:Hey are u listening, as always u r silent seeing me, if we were in watsapp or facebook u would have typed a 1000 words now

I smiled

G:I was just listening you

O:Hmmm wat do u do now.Y did u delete your fb account

G:Hmmm vo I thought I was wasting my time idoly so I deleted

Again lied to him, how could I say him I deleted to move on from you,don't know when will he catch all my lies

O:So what u do

G:Lecturer in college

O:Yeahh actually maa told yesterday,nice tea

G:You want some more

O:No no

A:If your conversation is over,come inside

We both looked at di and nodded

I stood up to go

O:Gauri

I looked at him

O:There is no pressure,If u want u can reject the proposal.If u reject also I hope u will keep in touch with me

He smiled and went in.His family went putting me in a dilemma

What am I supposed to do.Should I say yes or no.I know forgetting someone you love is difficult I mean next to impossible.I don't wanna share what he said to anyone coz I simply felt that it shud be between us.But would I be able to accept anyone other than him in my life.I know the answer a big NO.Friends hi sahi I could spend rest of my life with him rather than spoiling another persons life.But I promised myself I will never say him that I loved him.I don't know how will he react knowing it.So I m ready to marry him.

Marriage day. Bhavya and ridz are crying more than my mother.Not because I m married its because to whom I m married,They are so happy for me.See how he is frowning seeing bhavya and ridz hugging me crying and smiling.Yes it was very hard to convince them and di for not telling about my love for him.

Bhavya:Ok jeeju toh what will u give us for giving your shoes

O:Hmmm 10000Rs?

Ridz:So less yaar

Rudy looks at them

Ru:Blackmailing haan?

O:Ok u say what u want

Ridz and bhavya look each other

B:Always keep our friend happy else

O:Else?

O raises his eyebrow

R B:Ek jhaap pe deewar pe sat jaibe

I laughed and they both do hifi,He smiled and promised them

Nervous.Suhag raat.First time I m in his room. Ok gauri cool.There was only a months gap between the proposal and marriage he was busy with his work and I with mine so we met very rarely and as u know I m very comfortable in texting him coz if I write something wrong I could delet na before sending .I too hate the fact that I shud think twice before talking to him.Now I m gonna live with him shankarji knows what happens.Talking to him for more than 10 minute I feel like sharing everything with him but I control.u know loosing my control one day I had told him I love someone its just he was ^telling about love and said tum nahi samjhoge so I just told y I also know love.He said ur simple film crush is not love it should be felt gauri.Then I definitely know.U r in love gauri?Yeah almost caught that day but escaped telling something he dint believe still he dint question.He entered the room I got up from the bed

O:Hey sit down, this is not a classroom neither am I your teacher

G:Its just showing respect

He roll his eyes

O:Gauri how many time to tell you treat me like your friend if bhavya or ridhima come will u stand up no na then y for me,I don't want you to respect me.It feel we are very distant yaar

G:Its default in me.Listen I

O:Call me om gauri

G: I cant if maa hear na she will kill me

O:Why?

G:She say not to call your husband by name.

O:You are so 1980s . How will mummyji know what u call me in my home

G:Mummyji?

O:Your maa is my mummyji right

O shrugs

I smiled and nod my head

G:Still if I get habit of calling your name and if I call u in front of her then ek jhaap mein deewar pe sata denge vo

Again I lied its just I feel shy saying his name.By now u would have understood that I don't take his name much.

O:There is no use arguing with you right

He sigh

I smile victoriously

O:Go freshen up,washroom is there

I nodded and went to change.

I came after changing.He was arranging the bed.

O:So ready to sleep.

I nodded.

O:Which side left or right?

G:Anywhere, if u r not comfortable I can sleep on the recliner

He frowned:Why

G:I mean u know

O:Do you have the habit of putting legs and hands in sleep

I nodded no

O:Then sleep here

I chuckled and went on my side. Sleep was far away from my mind, I m feeling as if it's a dream.I stir in my sleep and saw him sleeping peacefully. Automatic smile came on my face. Now I became Mrs Jhatadhari

I woke up next morning first day in sasural. I came out from wash room and still he was sleeping . I got ready and went down to see papaji in kitchen.He was making tea

G:Papaji?

T:Arre gauri, u woke up early and got ready. You could have slept some more dear

Papaji came back and snatched the tea from my hand.I looked wide eye at him.He was staring at me angrily.I was scared did I do something wrong,I dint have the guts to ask too.he put water to boil

We watch movies together, its so fun,We both are somewhat similar. Hehe, we both are afraid of horror movies but we will watch them and after that we both are scared so we sleep in either side of him.He always scold us "If u r dis much scared y r u watching them to disturb my sleep and poor rudy get scolding from mummyji for disturbing us.Actualy we don't have a problem, they dnt know na we are still in friend zone. In these four months I got comfortable in talking to him, arguing with him face to face.we go out together.He consider my family as his own, di and he are now a team like me and jiju. Its so good to see them both together teasing me. Every Saturday we go to my home to visit maa,he cares for my maa. He is a very good husband.

Its not Rudy Mr its you whom I love. Still I haven't told him my feelings.He is now normal,Now he is a good friend of ishana. Last month ishana invited us for her brothers marriage, I dint go as I was awkward to face her, somewhere I felt afraid of meeting her, I feel like I snatched something from her.so he went alone for the marriage,Rudy warned me "soch lo babhi he is going to meet his ex.this world is so cruel I laughed "So what rudy your brother is so honest and straight .But now I m gonna face her.

O:Come on I was kidding, I trust u

G:Some times na u r drama queen than Rudy

We both went to the hall. He saw Ishana's husband and went to talk to him.I saw tia after a long time, she didn't attend my wedding, at that time she was in USA with her husband Robin. She hugged me

T:Ri after a long time, I m so sorry I couldn't attend your wedding, I couldn't even talk to u clearly.Is ur husband also here.

G:Yeah

We both looked at Ishana's husband and him.

T: Ohh omkara. Gauri omkara is here. Remember when he came to college I told to introduce me but u dint thinking I ll tell everything to him. Anyway where is your husband

I understood she hasn't looked my invitation card also. I thot to surprise her.I ll come.I went to him

G:Listen.

Ishana's husband smiled at me and went.

He smiled at tia . I stood beside Tia

G:This is tia my college friend

G:Vo

Robin came and stand beside me . I smiled at Robin and stood beside him

Ro:Gauri right

I nodded

Ro:Tia baby has told about you

Ro:He is

T:He is Omkara

Ro shook hand with him

Ro:Was he your classmate tia?I don't remember you saying about him

Tia was nervous what to say

T:Vo vo he is gauri's friend

Omkara looked frowning at me and Tia.

G:Vo

He wrapped his arm around my shoulder. I looked wide eye at him, it was for the first time he was doing this, My heart was beating faster. I felt everything around me has gone blurred.

O:And her husband too right

He told looking me.I gulped.He was looking into my eyes.

Ro: Okay

We both came out of the trance.

Tia was looking shocked and told me to come with her. I couldn't process whats happening as I was spell bound once more

G:Huh?

As tia knows it she shook her head and pull me. I saw him he was also little out of focus

I became normal

T:U married him?Really, shit man, I couldn't see that moment. I m so happy for you.

I smiled

T:Its been four months right

I nodded

T:Now too you shudder from his touch. How cute

G:Shut up

T:Awww someone is getting pink.so does he know

I nodded no

T:Why? U shud tell him gauri

I narrated everything to Tia, I felt like I would feel light if I shared with some one

T: U shud tell omkara baby, he has the right to know. And whats in it to misunderstand, u dint do anything intentionally. Did u? No na. Universe want you to unite so it happened. So what.

G:How will I tell him tia that I hided it from him this much year? If ishana know it what will she think

T:Again ishana? You are still worried about what she think? Come on Ri. When they were in a relationship u were tensed about ishana I understand but now theres no ishana between you both. Anyway its ur wish.

Tia gets a call

T:Excuse me

I was standing there

I:Hey gauri, long time

Ishana came and hug me. I smiled nervous

I:Why dint you come for my brothers wedding

G:I was busy with college work

I:Come lets sit somewhere and talk

I nodded and looked at Tia.Tia noded

I went with her

I:Why r u nervous gauri

I felt like crying helpless in front of her

G:Ishana I m sorry , actually when his proposal came I thought to marry him because

I:I m glad that u married him

I looked at her surprised

I:You know when I realized I couldn't marry him , he also accepted the fact , I prayed to God to make you his partner, I know u will keep him happy more than me. When om told he married you I was so relieved he is in safe hands now.And I have seen that change too gauri,He is relaxed now.So happy in life, He had told me that day about u. How u argue with him. Make him eat medicine, scold him when he drench in rain.And that stupid till now don't realize your love for him.

I looked at her wide eyed

G:You knew it?

Ishana chuckled

I:Ofcourse from college I knew it. I m sorry gauri actually when I first knew u love Om I felt so insecure and to make you jealous only I tell about his details to you and even took you to meet him in college. I saw how u got panic when I teased him for falling from the river but not seeing our intimacy. you are too good gauri, you always smiled seeing his smile. I first thought may be you are pretending but when om told how u made him understand his mistake when we had a fight I understood that is true love. Still u dint say a word to him and u were happy? How could you stay happy gauri. That's y God gave Om to you, you deserve him more than me

G: I never expected anything from him ishana. So every moment I get with him is like a gift from shankarji to me.

O:Ohh gossip huh

I:Yeah we were back biting about you right

I smiled and ishana winked

I was relieved ishana knew everything. Ishana is right my jhatadari is stupid na all know my love for him except him

We were driving back home.

O:What did ishana tell you

G:nothing much , just girls talk

O:Hmmm how tia know me gauri

I looked at him wide eye

O:I mean she don't know I m your husband but he know my name so I asked

G:I have tld her about you and ishana

O:Ohh what have you told.

G:Why should I say you?Its secret

O:You used to gossip about us really

G:No gossip I have said about your relationship that's it

Suddenly it rained.

O:Its raining

G:I can see that

He stopped the car. I frowned, seeing him smile as if a child seeing his favourite toffee I understood

G:No, I m telling you its

He opened the door and went out standing in rain

G:Hey shankarji yeh ladka bhi na

I went with umbrella to him

O:I don't want umbrella

He puts it down

G:Arre, kya hein, were you a frog in last janam that you get so happy seeing rain

O: Yuck frog u could have said peacock.

G:Peacock? And you

G:Ok you stand here I m going

O:Acha ek minute aur

I shook my head he just closed his eyes and stood there for one minute

In the morning when he kept wet towel in bed I glared at him.

He said

O:God Gauri its just a towel and you are glaring as if I told u I love someone

G:As if u haven't told that to me

He imitate

O:Chalta hoon dua mein yaad rakhna. So yesterday you both were seeing ADHM and crying. Whats there to cry seeing that film

I cupped my face shocked

G:Having a break up you don't understand the pain in that film

O:Pain? He shouldn't have loved her knowing she loves someone. He should have loved someone else. I mean who would love someone knowing they don't have a place in your heart

I looked at him and said

G:Falling in love is never a choice.It just happens. In one side love na. our mind know that its not right to love a person who is somebody else but heart doesn't accept it. Even if we think na okay from today onwards we wont think about him, we will move on, but

I shrugged my shoulder

G:Will never happen, infact on that particular day we will be remembering him more

He looked at me. I realized what I said. To lighten the mood I said

G:Kuch kuch hota hein tum nahi samjhoge

O:Seems like you are in so drama mood.

G:Still i am going I wont come back

I stomped my foot and went

O:Itna bhi khush mat kijiye humein subah subah

G:Haan haan when I wont be there na then you will realize my value

In the evening there was heavy rain when I left from the college. No taxi was there so I was walking.I took my mobile to call home, When somebody took the phone I went to slip in the mud. I shouted in sudden reaction and my mobile fell down in the muddy water and uski Oh my mata ho gaya.What a great day. I reached home after one hour and saw none in home.I was wondering where did all go.Papaji went for a business trip and will reach today evening but mummyji and Rudy was home morning.Where did they go in this heavy rain.I opened the gate with my spare key and entered. I changed made coffee for me and switched on the TV.But "no signal found was written. I sighed and sat in sofa . I heard the sound of opening the gate. I saw mummyji rudy and him entering. I stood up with remote in one hand and coffee in another. Seems like he was little stressed. Rudy was saying him.

R:You should inform her

O:No Rudy what will I say

They three entered the hall and saw me.They stood there stunned as if seeing me for the first time.He was looking at me head to toe.I frowned and looked myself

G:What happened

J:You are home?You are alright na

I frowned again

G: Yeahhh .What will happen to me

I now noticed three of them drenched in rain. He was standing looking at me quiet

G:Ohh you took them with you to drench in rain. What mummyji you too. You will get cold

He took two steps and stood in front of me.He asked me in calm voice than usual. who knew it was calmness before hurricane

O:Where were you

G:Vo I

O:Where is your phone

G:Phone ?phone fell on the water and its not working

He closed his eyes and sighed.

R:Babhi why you shouted on the phone

G:Shouted? Yeah I slipped and shouted then only my mobile fall

J:Gauri your id card?

G:Id card? Ohh yeah it was missing from my purse today morning.

Mummyji gave me my Id card

I smiled excited and told

G:You got it? From where

O:JUST SHUT UP

My coffee mug fell down hearing him shout. I looked at him wide eye

O:DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT I HAVE BEEN GOING THROUGH. SOMEONE CALLED ME YOU HAD AN ACCIDENT.RUDY TOLD ME YOU SHOUTED ON PHONE AND YOUR PHONE IS SWITCHED OFF AFTER THAT, WHEN WE THREE WENT TO HOSPITAL IT WAS NOT YOU AND YOU WERE MISSING.WE WENT TO COLLEGE AND THEY TOLD YOU LEFT THE COLLEGE

Just then some loud song started on the TV as signal came.He looked at the TV and me

O:And you are watching TV?

I noded no,The song was very loud

O:SWITCH IT OFF DAMN IT.

I noded and pressed the button in remote but it was not working. Rudy was looking helplessly at me.When Rudy was about to come to me,he snatched remote from my hand switched off the tv and threw it on the floor it broke into three pieces.I kept hands on my mouth shocked.He grabbed my arms

O:Why are you silent

G:Yo you only told shut up

Rudy and mummyji chuckled hearing me. I looked at them

O:Guys give us a minute

He dragged me and climbed the staircase and entered our room and closed the door. I looked at him tensed. He came close to me, His proximity was also effecting me

O:Is this some kind of joke to you

I noded no

O:You know how it felt?

He sighed and ran his fingers through his hair to calm down. Trying to lighten the mood I said

G:Why you were tensed ? I told I will leave you. I came back to take my luggage.

He held my waist and pulled me towards him. I gasped in shock. He was so close to me our lips inches apart. Hey Shankarji I felt as if my heart stopped beating

O:Don't you dare say like dat again.

He was looking at me with so much intensity

Rudy knocked the door

R:Om, babhi

He left me and I breath heavily and opened the door.

Rudy sighed and held my shoulder

R:Thank God you are alive

I frowned

R:I thot this man has eaten you hearing no sound

I smiled and went out.He too smiled and entered the room.

...

After few days mummyji was having fever. I was sleeping with her for past one week looking after her ,doing the house hold work. I was in kitchen cleaning he came to kitchen

G:You need something?

O: Vo how is maa.

G:She is fine, bas tired, she is your mother na, how hard it is to give her medicine.she pretend like swallowing it and spit it going to toilet.I don't understand y is it difficult for you people to swallow medicine. How many faces you all make to eat a tablet.

I turned and he was standing right behind me.

G:Wha what happened

O:Gauri I wanted to say

Alarm rang.He moved back afraid

G:Time for mummyji's medicine

He sighed and noded.Why was he sighing. I washed my hand and went.From the day he shouted there is some change in him, don't know what.

I gave medicine to mummyji and was lying beside her

J:I am not sleepy

G:Me too

J: Gauri om would be angry with you na

G:Angry? Why

J:You are not giving him attention

G: Your beta is not a kid mummyji to give attention, aap bhi na, vaise bhi why would he be angry or sad I m taking care of his mother na

J: Still he will be missing you na

I chuckled

J: Its been 6 months

G:Yeahh how time passes

J: You are happy here na

G:Yes mummyji I m very happy here

J:Om is keeping you happy right

G:Yeahh why are you asking all this suddenly

J: You both are not intimate so I thought

I looked at her wide eye

J:What? I understand gauri. I m also a woman. The way you panicked when you both posed for the photo that day

G:No its not

J:I did a mistake to you na by getting him married to you, I mean he still couldn't forget ishana and move on

G:Its nothing like that mummyji , being intimate is not everything in a marriage,I understand him and he understand me, its been only six months na, abhi bhi time hein.

I just consoled mummyji, but I was thinking he being intimate with me, The thought itself made my heart pounce, stop gauri.

J:you are so composed gauri, even though rudy is dumb his choice was nice

G:Huh

J:Yeah rudy only said you will be perfect for Om

I smiled

G:Now you sleep else your son will come and get angry that I am talking not allowing you to sleep

T:Ohhh so u both don't sleep at night

Papaji came to the room I sat on the bed.Mummyji was still lying.

J:Tej what are u doing here

T:Arre its my room, bahut hua tum saas bahu ka pyar,gauri u go and sleep in your room I ll sleep here

G:Its ok papaji

T:What ok? You are doing all the work here and not sleeping properly too

J:Yeah I was also telling her

T:Yeah go I think Om is very restless without you

G:Ohhh so you are restless without mummyji and blaming ur son

Papaji glared at me, What did I say to him

G:Sorry papaji,

I looked at him and he chuckled at me

T:Go

J:Yeahh go gauri

G:Ok but if

T:Anything happen I ll call u. happy?

I smiled and went. I was going to my room after one week. Its been one week I have talked to him . There is no time na, I ll be busy with mummyji and house work and he also office work and all, usually we used to talk to each other lying on bed about our day and something ,I missed it, I don't think he ll miss me. I opened the door and saw him sitting on the bed, he was surprised seeing me and little happy too I guess.I smiled

O:What happened

G:Vo papaji told he ll take care of mummyji so I came to sleep

O:You are going to sleep here?

G: Yeahh y any problem

O: No? Nothing, not at all a problem

I frowned and went to washroom

I came out from the washroom and he has slept. I went to my side of the bed and lied facing my back to him as always keeping both my hands under my head. Suddenly I gasped feeling his hands on my waist, I looked wide eye at his hand snaking my waist. May be in sleep he might have put his hand. But he never does like that. I slowly turned my head to look at him. He was looking at me.I immediately turned my head to other side. Suddenly I felt like I couldn't breathe, where did all the oxygen go? My heart was beating as if it will come out now, my legs were numb. I'm not in my senses. To add more to this he was speaking with a husky voice near my ears

O:Kya hua

I closed my eyes with the pleasure or the turmoil going inside.

O:Gauri

I nodded my head to say no and his lips brushed my ears I gasped and shut my eyes tight and I felt as if my legs go weak, how can he do it with just a simple hug.

O:Gauri

G:Hmmm

O: I missed you

I felt goose bumps all around my body.

O: Good night

I nodded as words were not coming out from my mouth.
