After much planning rashi and gopi finalized on where to go. They decided on going for a picture. There remained two problems one: what will happen if kokila finds out two: how to bring in jigar. These days rashi has really started to appreciate gopi's help. In one part of her brain she felt ashamed of her previous behavior. She could not shrug the feeling of guilt. So she decided just as gopi was trying to patch up her relationship with jigar, she will try to help gopi. For this she needed to come clean. But again it might spoil whatever good name she has with gopi. So rashi was in a cross road. At present she left her confusions at bay and decided to patch up jigarji.
Gopi was trying hard to think how to get jigar to come with them for the picture. Just then her handsome husband walked in. gopi gave him a bright smile and decided to leave the matters to him. She requested him, whether they can go for a picture to bring rashi and devarji together. Aham mentally hit himself. Here he was considering himself as the best businessman, seems his wife was proving far better than him. He gave her a heart stopping smile and agreed. Gopi again voiced her concern, how will the family member accept to it.
Aham hushed her saying he will look after into it. Now it was aham's turn to think. He knew for sure, his mom does not approve of wasting time on silly things. Still a promise is a promise. And what will he not give to see those shiny stars in her eyes. Each time gopi smiled, he was blasted by her beauty. He wondered how he stupid he was to miss it. Moreover he wanted to spend some time with gopi. At home, there was no privacy. Though he could not complain, his mom never had the habit of knocking at the door. She seemed to barge into their room at most awkward moments and embarrass them. Orelse someone comes seeking help from gopi, or gopi was busy with work. So he finalized a plan.
The next morning he told his family that there was a clients meeting and they have invited him and jigar. So that evening they have to attend a party at their place. Gopi was disappointed that aham did not talk about their picture plan. But by afternoon, aham called koki and explained that since the clients wanted them to bring their wife, he wanted gopi and rashi to be ready. After some thought kokila agreed. Aham texted gopi saying their picture plan was on and not to breathe a word to anyone.
Gopi was excited. After a long time she was going for a movie. Long back her mama had taken her for a movie only to be blasted by her mami. So today she can enjoy herself. Rashi on the other hand was apprehsive of going to a party with jigar. She did not want to be mistreated by jigar in front of a crowd. At each turn her dilemma was increasing. She could feel how much gopi had suffered due to her kalakari, still she was the only one who was helping her get her husband back.
By evening both the couples were ready and started out. While gopi and aham were happy, rashi was apprehensive and jigar was sulking. He did not like being trapped with rashi. Now he had to act being civil with her, aham was happy seing gopi's excitement. She was like a kid going out for her first picnic. She looked so cute, it took him all his concentration to look at the road.
When aham stopped at the theatre, jigar and rashi were taken aback. Aham replied that on their way, he got message that the client was ill, so the party got cancelled, so instead of wasting time by going home, he had brought them here. Jigar was unhappy, rashi was elated. Aham lauched into action. Again jigar created problem saying he wanted to sit with his bhabhi. Aham shut him saying not to create ruckus at a public place. So jigar, followed by rashi, gopi and aham took their place.
This was a new experience for both aham and gopi. Aham could not take his eyes off gopi. She looked so childish. She was deeply engrossed in the movie and at times at rashi and jigar. Aham felt disappointed. Though she looked at him, she never had the longing look she used to have. By the time the movie ended she was totally smitten by the hero. While there was little progress in rashi and jigar's conversation, aham feel that is mission to understand his wife was going great. Though he had accepted her speech about family, he could not help realize that she had took the gift away from him. He also understood that though gopi loved him, she had lost hope of getting his love. She was merely happy for her rashi ben and did not worry what might happen to her.
All the way home various images flashed in aham's mind. He could not shake the image of a freely laughing gopi. At one place she was terrified and hugged his hand. Without wasting time aham put his arms on her shoulder and brought her close. It took gopi a few mintues to realize how close she was to aham. With a blush she slowly entangled herself from his hold. It was pain near death that aham felt. His wife did not want to be touched by his. Had he really lost her. No , it can never happen. An emotional gopi, who had tears on seeing someone suffer on screen. And finally a dreamy gopi. Aham could not bear to see the dreamy expression gopi had on seeing the on screen couple romance with each other. It left him thinking, did she wish it to happen to her? Well he has to find out.
On reaching home he decided to test his wife. He did not like her overt praise on the hero and his handsomeness. Gopi on the other had had a wonderful time. She even felt guilty that though this plan was fixed to bring rashi and jigar together she was enjoying herself. While rashi was staring at jigar, jigar had his whole concentration focused on the screen. So to make them at each, she began questioning jigar about the movie, so he had to look at rashi and answer her. Half way through the movie jigar seemed to relaz. But the highlight of the evening was aham's attention on her. He never missed a chance to show that she was there for her. She blushed when she remembered how he had held her and how he brought her popcorn and icecream. This will be a day she will remember till her last breathe.
Unaware of her husband's trap, gopi dreamily went towards her room. She locked the door and turned. Her jaws dropped down. Is this for real? She found aham in track pant and a towel around his neck, walking towards her. Gopi was rooted to her place. He came near her and flexed his arms questioning: so gopiji whom do you like me or that hero?
Okay I will stop here. I always wanted to see aham bare chested and gopi's reaction to it. Though this is a os. It has a part which I will update tomorrow.
