Chapter 13

Omkara Comes out of the Washroom .Walking through the Passage He rewinds in time when He was bought before his Dada for a conversation a few days after He was introduced as an Oberoi

"Cut ties With them " Dada Orders

"They are My Family --We grew up together my Friends are my families I cannot " Omkara argues back

"You are a Oberoi , Learn to live as one ! First step is having relations with people who are of our status "

"I cannot , I grew up with them..I will live as Omkara , Just Omkara forever "Om retorts back angrily

"Those sadak chaps will mooch you off " , Omkara angrily gets up refusing

"Omkara is dead you are Omkara Singh Oberoi Keep That in Mind" Dada yells .

Omkara Closes his remembering those time He had lost everyone Who He had thought Family Due to Mr.Oberoi .He had paid each other off & had threaten everyone to cut ties with him .

He Face palms himself remembering an incident which He had eavesdropped between Shivaay & His mother Pinky

"Shivaay Remember just because Balrajji brought in , That boy Omkara He does not become family ..You should protect your place as a heir " Pinky tells him

"I have No Family" Shivaay replies sighing and continues "He will not last even a day So stop worrying & get going to your place mom" Shivaay replies disinterested

All this is witnessed by Omkara who leaves the place sadly & broken to the back garden .There's where He first saw Anika who wraps a jacket around him seeing him shivering him in the cold

"Family" He whispers sadly and walks forward .

***

Anika and Shivaay are left alone in the table as Anika looks at him in pain while Shivaay is pretending to avoid her

"Did you Bring her to Live in the Mansion ?" She finally asks him the question which had been bugging since a long time

.Shivaay raises his head shocked to hear an unexpected question from her " Off course Yes Who will invite her if not for her Boyfriend"..Her eyes fills up instantly

(o Jaana Sad Version Link up)

Nazdeek Hai Dil ke, Phir kyun lage milke

Jaise ho milon door ho

"But She is Not your type!" Her voice sounded hoarse as She was holding back her tears

"She is Different & Special From Everyone" He tells her back

".I am Leaving" She exits the place as His face falls a bit .

Omkara sees Anika leaving as He walks over to the table. Seeing Omkara He briskly masks

"What the hell did you tell her?" He asks in a near shout .

Shivaay raises a brow "I just told her the truth "

"You Know what You are an expert in hurting her" He yells

Shivaay retorts back with a smile "You're an expert in healing her pain "

"Don't you care about her ? I Feel that you think her as your women "

"Oh Really From When ?" He asks Sarcasm dripping in his voice as He continues "I never had anything for her "

"Do you mean it Shivaay? Sincerely?"

"Sincerity kills Enjoyment ...I just Do not care about anything Mr.Omkara unlike you "

Omkara sees Gauri walking to them from far muttering curses under her breath

"Are you Sure?"Omkara asks him without taking his eyes off Gauri

"It just takes the fun out of life " Shivaay replies back , Omkara leaves the place .

"Where is Anika?" Gauri asks Shivaay soon as She comes over

"She left" Shivaay tells and holds her hand dragging her out

"Stop" Gauri tells irritated

."Why did She leave?" Gauri asks tying her hands across her chest

"Just like that!"

"Why are you Rude to her Shivaay?"

"Mind your Business Gauri" He tells her annoyed

"Do you like her Shivaay?" Gauri asks making Shivaay's eyes go wider

" Why do I Feel that you took me that day to the Party to Make Anika Jealous?"

"Are you jealous?" Shivaay asks back flirting

"Why would I ? " She raises her brow and gets into the Car Dropping the topic .

Anika walks in a lonely road tearing up .She closes her eyes remembering their childhood incident An eight year old Anika falls from the bike while riding it .Hearing her cries 10 year Shivaay comes running

"Why are you crying Anika?".

Anika shows her arms and legs which are bruised "Aww My baby got hurt?" He asks her .

Anika nods through her tears "Okay let's apply some ointment "

He helps her stand up and takes her in .He himself starts putting on ointment while Anika hisses in pain

"Is it hurting a lot?" Anika nods and starts crying again

"Why are crying?" Little Shivaay asks her .

Anika locks her arms around his neck "I'll miss you ..I'll miss you helping me out when I fall"

"Anii I'll be back on vacations okay? " Anika nods sulking

"Aniii when we grow big I will not give a chance for you to miss me?"

"How?"

"Because I'll marry you and stay by your side"

Anika stares at him not getting it She asks after a while "Will you apply ointment when I Fall?" She asks in her baby voice .

Shivaay takes hold of her hands clasping it with his Looking into her eyes He replies "I Will Not Let you Fall ".

Anika Opens her eyes remembering his promise as She breaks down Kneeling in the road and cries her heart out "You made me Fall" She shouts

She remembers the day He had kissed her even if It was fake for him for her She felt loved for a moment .She stands up and keeps walking .

Jazbat hai anjaana, Mushkil hai samjhana

Apna hai ya hai ghair woh

Ishq mai adhura sa, rooh mai hai poora sa...

Dard hai saari umr bhar ka...

O jaaanaa...

Anika crosses the road Lost in her own world as It is night time The place was lonely .A Speed Car comes Bearing towards her .Just in time before She gets knocked out She is wiped away by Omkara

"Are you mad?" He yells holding her arms harshly as She cries closing her eyes .

He cups her face in his palms as He says Softly "If you keep on going Like this Ani you are the one who is going to get hurt ..At least Stand up against him without ending your life" He yells the last bit ..

The Fear of seeing her almost close to death .She Locks her arms around Om's neck placing her chin in his shoulder as He places his hand on her back

"I just Do not Want Much..I Want That Girl to Leave His Side"' She cries out loudly as Om keeps patting her .

Khoya khoya rehta hai

Dil tadap ye kehta hai

Tu hai mere

jeene ki wajah O jaana

On their way Home Shivaay tells Gauri "I've got a flat you can stay there after you get kicked out"

"Who are you to write My Fate?" She asks him back angrily "

You will not fulfill the mission of getting us together Gauri" He tells with a smirk

" I Do not Back out..Who are you to Decide Where I Should Live?"

"I will Have to take of My Would be Girlfriend usually I grant wishes when I break up but For you I am giving it Earlier ." He tells her While She gets down from the car pissed .

He comes running to her side and puts his arms around her shoulders

"I am great right ? I got you expensive clothes & Food and Now an own Flat " He gushes

Gauri takes a deep sigh and twist his hand pushing him up against the Car .Shivaay Winces in Pain "I have no intention even in my dreams to date you , So stop pulling out stunts like this" She tells him angrily and leaves the place .

Shivaay rubs his arms "Nothing is working on this Woman" He whines following her in.

Gauri buries her face in the pillow tired & frustrated mulling over Omkara's word "how could He think low of me?" She questions herself

"Gauri You know who you are ! So his opinion on you does not matter " She affirms herself

"Let's Make plans".

She drops a group message in whatsapp to the boys "Let's Have Dinner Together , This would be my last attempt !! Pinky promise..Come to The Garden".The blue tick appears showing her they have seen but non- replies .She leaves to the Kitchen brooding .

Rudra comes to Gauri's room To check whether her charger would help as He had lost his to charge his phone .While seeking out for the charger He sees her diary which is half torn . He takes it in his hands and smiles seeing her baby picture .He turns the next page to find The page half torn .He sees a Date and is Shocked . He meets up with Khannaji and tells him About that Which Surprises Him too as He Never Knew it ..hey make quick plans.

Omkara closes his eyes leaning to the bedpost remembering the incidents which happened today ! He sighs thinking about Anika's suicidal attempt She was just an inch from Death !! .and her words "I just want that girl out of his side !!". He runs his fingers through his hair tired & frustrated "I am gonna make you three Family!" Gauri's words rings in his mind reminding him "Just because balrajji brought him in Hedoes not make family!!.." , Pinky's words comes in ,

"A trash like you competing the SSO" Shivaay's voice comes over reminding him the fight they had in the company "...He calls himself taking a deep breath.

Rudra & Khannaji are busy in the Garden with the Preparations . Shivaay comes to the Kitchen where He sees Gauri .She gives him a smile and signals him with her eyes to come to garden While He scoffs .

Gauri moves forward and whacks his head angrily "You have too!" She orders irritated and leaves the place .

Shivaay takes an apple from the fridge as He raises his head Omkara snatches it from his hand

"You , It's mine Give it Back ".

Om takes a bite smirking "So what I am Hungry "

Annoyed Shivaay takes a coke from the Fridge .Omkara snatches it too making him curse at him

"What the hell do you want?"

"Don't you really Care about anything Sincerely ? "

"I answered you Before & Telling once again , It just takes the fun out of Life !!"

"Then Come to the Garden! " Omkara tells with a devilish grin and leaves the place ..

Gauri comes to the Garden & sighs seeing no one present .She decides to leave .A Hand Snakes through her shoulders hugging her from behind

"Shivaay I said to Keep your Hands off me.." She stops abruptly as a Familiar cologne hits her nostrils She freezes as his hot breath falls on her cheeks..As in reflex She closes her eyes

"From all the people around why do you have to belong to Shivaay?" He whispers softly ..

She wets her lips to speak up her words dried as He turns her around.She blinks twice to confirm herself it's him .Shivaay who happens to walk in finds them in that position His hands locked around her waist .Omkara's lips curve up in a sinister smile as He signals her to look forward .Gauri averts her gaze to see Shivaay looking at them Flabbergasted

Shivaay Presses his lips together and forces a smile "What are you doing?" He asks softly

Jo Na Keh Sakey TumJ

o Na Keh Sakey Hum

Kehne Lagi Dono se Woh Khamoshiyaan

O Saathiya

Omkara pulls his hands from her waist instantly She feels the loss of warmth as She stares at him with an unknown emotion .He places his hands around her shoulders as He tells Shivaay Jovially

"I am Gonna try & Steal your Girlfriend " Making Their Mouths Form "O" Shaped !!

***

He pulls her a bit close to him as He runs his fingers through her hair

"Is it Hurting ..A Lot?" He emphasizes as She nods in a daze

"I was Serious When I Told I am Gonna Try & Steal you from him !"
