Since these days the track seems to focus more on Kinjal and her dilemma and also on the koki-rashi ego trip,our favorite love birds have not had a chance to come on screen and give us those lovely moments.
So, I just dreamt and wrote this fictional piece. Please let me know your thoughts:-
I want that Rashi should mislead Gopi as she has done so many times in the past ( the infamous laptop washing episode etc.. etc..).So I want that Rashi should try and mislead Gopi into doing something really stupid in the future. But for a change Ahem would be lurking nearby during that time talking on his phone. Since he has already developed some attraction for Gopi after being smitten by her in that green lehenga and that "to die for moment" where he cleans and tends to her wound,he already knows that Gopi is a nice person but a little naive. So, he tries to keep tab of the situation. Once he realizes that Gopi trusts Rashi blindly and Rashi is the real culprit ,he decides to take matter in his own hands since Mom is behaving very weirdly these days because of some tension with Kinjal. He decides to make Gopi more wordly wise. Its alright if he cant accept her as of wife but he can surely as a friend guide her so that she is not hurt by anyone in the future.
Gopi is about to enter her room at night after keeping a glass of water in Maaji's room. As she extends her hand to open the door of her room,somebody grabs her arm and pulls her. She is shocked and is unable to see who is it in the dark. She realizes she is pulled against a man's chest which seems as strong as a rock. Ahem places a hand on her mouth and leads her towards his room. Gopi's heart pounds as a range of emotions choke her: shock,excitement,curiosity.."Oh Kanhaji...please help".Just then Ahem opens the door and keeps a hand on her tiny waist and gently pulls her inside and closes the door. He removes his hand from her mouth and asks her to sit down.
Gopi coyly sits down and is about to place the pallu on her head when Ahem catches hold of her hand and tells her that " he has begun to really respect her. He has his own issues in his past which he has been fighting but he really cares for her as a friend and would like to protect her. He recounts how he heard Rashi poisoning her and how Gopi believed her and thus was tricked by her."As Gopi feels a little embarrassed by her failure to understand Rashi's motives,a tear rolls down her cheek. Ahem is suddenly gripped by an emotion so unknown to him that he feels it will drown him . He feels like wiping that tear off Gopi's face and hugging her tightly.
He realizes that he has been feeling really lost since the last couple of days since Mom has not been making appearances during breakfast or dinner and also she seems to be extremely tensed because of the Diwali fiasco or due to Kinjal's wedding. So he does not feel like bothering Mom by revealing Rashi's antiques to her so he will help dear Gopi on his own.
He asks Gopi to weigh situations a bit more wisely before taking any action and he says that she can call him up anytime if she needs advice. He says that, "Mom also loves you a lot and if you keep getting into a lot more trouble then this will hurt her a lot. So, you can look up to me as a friend and confide in me."
Gopi smiles and nodes to his words. She loves the fact that he is still holding her hand and is looking into her eyes so gently. Suddenly there is a lot of commotion outside and they hear someone talking on the phone. Ahem is slightly perturbed as he doesn't want anybody to see Gopi in his room at this hour. So, he dims the light of the lamp and waits. The noise does not go away and when he looks at Gopi he finds that her eyes are half closed. He suggests that she lie down as she would be really tired and he would wake her up when the noise goes away. She lies down and Ahem goes away to sit and work on his laptop.
Gopi lies with her eyes closed and feels the gaze of Ahem's eyes searching her face. Ahem is so frustrated. He just wants to keep staring at Gopi as he knows that he wouldn't get such a chance in the near future. Whenever she sees that he is approaching ,she places that pallu on her head. Oh !! how he hates that pallu. But he himself has to be blamed for that.
Suddenly memories of the past haunt him and he feels that he has been drained of all the life he has in him. He goes to the bed and lies besides Gopi who is fast asleep now. He looks at her hand that is still bandaged and remembers how well and quietly she coped with her pain and was so considerate of his Mom. He looks at her face,which is so serene and beautiful,he places a hand on her cheek and it feels like silk. He looks at her lips which are so scarlet red and suddenly the urge to press his lips against her is so strong that he feels he will die if he resists the urge anymore. He cradles her tiny face in his hand and his heart is full of love and care. He realizes that there is a pressing bodily urge to make love to her right then and there but he wants that he should amend all his wrongdoings towards her in the past and make her reciprocate his love!!With a sigh his eyes close and he too falls asleep besides his love.
