Chapter 9

He stood still in the same place she left him , silent tears soaked his cheeks . Her each word pricked his heart like a thorn .

How could You think Gauri I would reject you sexually ? What are you to me? You are my wife not a living creature to please me , How could She think that she is not worth enough to be loved? She deserved all the love and care in the world but he made her feel that She was worthless !

Omkara swallows the lump which was forming as he turns his head slowly to look at the direction She went , Omkara sees through the slight opening of the door , Seeing her curled up in the floor crying her out , Omkara pushes his foot towards their room .

Her muffled sobs hits his eardrums as his hands involuntarily pushed the door open . She knew he was here , Sitting up Gauri wipes her tears quickly cupping her cheeks trying to rub of the angry pained tears off .

Omkara moves his head to aside painfully seeing her trying her best not to show her vulnerability . Omkara eyes wells up as He sits beside her . Gauri looks to her front hugging herself .

"I-did-not-reject-you" Omkara whispers slowly turning his head towards her . Gauri closes her eyes as tears leaked out . She bites her lower lip

"I-walked away before I could do anything bad which we would regret later " He whispers slowly holding her forearm making her turn towards him

Gauri opens her eyes painfully as She sees him to reflecting the same , Both eyes welling up .

Omkara cups her face in his palms "Trust me You are too good the way you are - You deserve all the love and care Gauri -You do!"

"Then Why does My OWN HUSBAND doesn't give me then?" She asks slowly placing her hands over his which was in her cheeks , Tears rolls down falling on his palms

Omkara's heart shattered the way she asked him painfully "I am not good enough for you" he mumbles and tries to pull his palms back from her cheeks but Gauri holds it firmly against her cheeks leaning only his palms . She needs an answer today as always He cannot walk away from her .

"Why?" She cries asking him again "Why?" She repeats leaving his palms as She sobs hiding her face between her hands .

Omkara as on instinct pulls her close wrapping his arms around her as She sobs onto his chest hugging him tightly

"I ---You are too good Gauri" He whispers subconsciously kissing her hairs .

Gauri cries harder leaning herself more into him , The pain was too much for her to take in.

"Give me a reason" Gauri whispers painfully pulling away as She understands the position they were in .

Omkara missed the warmth in his arms as She moved away "I-can't " He mumbles standing up and walks away as always .

Gauri holds his wrist stopping him still sitting in the floor as She pleads through her eyes wanting him to answer

"I-am-Sorry" He chokes removing his fingers from his wrist as he takes steps backward as She stares at him with a hurt expression .

He turns giving her back to him as he leaves closing the door between him .

Gauri smiles sadly as the door shuts . It felt as if the door to his heart was shut!

***

Randhir stood at the corner with his arms wrapped around his chest as he saw his friend breakdown front of him . He felt wrenched seeing Omkara drinking and sobbing himself muttering curses for himself for hurting Gauri .

Randhir wanted to reach out but he stood as a rock wanting Omkara learn to chin up and work on his relationship. He wanted Omkara understand just like he was the best in business he needs to best in Relationships too as at the end of the day whatever he earns Family is what stands first in line who would welcome him home happily .

"Divorce her" Randhir replies sitting on his bed pulling the bottle away from Omkara

"Okay" Omkara whispers after a minute shocking Randhir . Randhir shakes his head in defeat Let her go at least then this tough nut will understand He needs her like his breath to live !

Omkara walks out of the room and leans onto the closed door after as he falls on his knees as heart-wrenching look comes past the curtains of his eyelids.

He needs a break , Pulling out his phone from his pocket he rings up Randhir asking him to immediately get to his house as he would be there in a half an hour.

Omkara opening the cap of the alcohol bottle gobbles down his throat now in Randhir's house.

His heart had shattered into bits as her words of hurt and pain repeats in his head . He couldn't but keep chanting "I am Sorry -I am a B*std! I am a bloody -I am sorry" He cries hugging the bottle close to his body.

Omkara hears Randhir who has not spoken a word since Omkara came to his place or neither stopped him from drinking say 'Divorce her'

"Okay" Omkara mumbles surprised of himself

Taking another gulp Omkara lets out a sad chuckle "She is so pure ---Do you know Ron She held me close to her during the nights when I muttered cold continuously -She patted me to sleep hugging me close to her giving me all the warmth - I Felt her care Ron-I hurt her and She was nothing but good to a man like me!"

Randhir hugs Omkara close to him "Om it will be fine -calm down -Even you could love her more than anyone -You could be the best husband " He pauses cupping Omkara's cheeks making him look at Randhir blurrily due to the all crying since hours "Just because someone we love leaves us alone that does not mean Our life too ends in this world Omkara - Move on One Day your life would become beautiful just the way you wanted ! -Let go off your past and hold your present in your arms "

"She left Ron and I was the reason " Omkara weeps pushing Randhir's hands away "That day If I agreed to her then today I will not be here crying over Ishana and Destroying Gauri's life too -I am a Killer Ron-I deserved to die -Yes-I -should Die-I should have die with Ishana -yes" Omkara keeps mumbling

Randhir ends up slapping Omkara hardly , Omkara jerks back as he did not see it coming He sees Randhir look at him upset . Randhir's eyes pools up as he pulls Omkara hugging him tightly "Don't You go there!" He warns . Omkara nods against his shoulder sobbing clearly remembering it had tormented his best friend than him whenever he spoke about Death as It was Randhir who had clearly seen Omkara fighting for his life in that damn hospital bed with tubes attached around his body.

"I hurt her Ron" Omkara cries whispering

"I am repeating Omkara -She is my little Sister who I never had Let her ago or Give her What She deserves -Next time a tear drops from her eyes trust me I will not leave you !" Randhir threatens making Omkara break out into a chuckle

"She has that aura in her you know -anyone who talks to her within minutes starts liking her ! ",

"Then Why don't You?" Randhir questions back

"You know she asked me the same" he whispers softly remembering him holding her protectively in his embrace

"I Like her Ron ---I like her so much but I can't give her what She deserves -Trust me I swear on myself I never wanted to hurt her Ron-The moment I placed vermillion on her parting I saw how serene she looked I took a vow I will never let that peace and smile fade away but see I am doing it ---" Omkara cries taking another gulp

"Let her heal you" Randhir says pulling the bottle away

"She is My wife Randhir not some medicine to heal me ! Why does always a woman needs to change a man? "He tells sneering starting on his feet only to fall on the bed behind him

"I am going to divorce her -She needs to live her life happily not with a coward like me" He whispers before darkness consumes him .

Gauri looks at her broken self in the mirror while applying light make up after she hears the calling ball.

Opening the door Gauri is pulled in a bone crushing hug making her lips curve up

"Teddy" She calls him pulling back

Pulling from the hug Rudra notices her eyes swollen "Doll were you crying?"

Gauri pulls Rudra in nervously as she fumbles "No"

"Gauri stop lying!" Rudra says raising his tone this time as they stop by the living room . he had come happily to see his Doll and Share about his adventures of America and all the crazy fantasies he fulfilled finally but seen her look broken even though she pretending to put up the fake smile he wants to break all the things around .

"Did He hurt you?" Rudra asks worriedly cupping her cheeks .

Gauri shakes her head negatively "You are putting too much into that head off yours "

"Ohh , I see my baby sister is all grown up that She hides everything from her Bhai - Her best Friend "

"Bhai please" Gauri moves to hold him seeing him hurt by her words "I am fine -He is good" She tells holding his palm in hers .

"I am not-" , Gauri closes her eyes for a splitting second hearing his voice

He had sobered up yet she could see how shattered and broken he looked . Seeing him trying to open his mouth Gauri shakes her head negatively but Omkara smiles sadly at her .

Rudra looks at him questionably "What does that mean?"

"That means She is not happy with me ! I made her cry" Omkara whispers

Rudra feels anger bottling up within him his baby sister who never cried in her life is crying because of him , this B**std ,- all the Old anger bottling up Rudra he ends pulling Omkara by his collar "How dare You ? My Doll never cried in her life She is My baby princess and You made her cry"

Gauri pulls Rudra back pushing his hands away from Omkara's collar as She places herself between them "We had a small fight in the morning -He left without consoling that's Why I cried -That's it !"

"That's it? Go on tell this to someone who is blind and deaf -Do you think Gauri I was blind to see how indifferently you both behaved in the train? He pushed you away in the berth and left and That day he left you alone in a new place and today I see you broken -This is not My Gauri here , it is His Wife speaking to me - My baby sister who never lied to me is lying today because of her husband !"

"Rudra-I-" Omkara tries to speak seeing the hurt look in his face It is because of my doings this sister and brother are in pain and Yet after so much she speaks for me -Why Gauri? I do not deserve you and this goodness !

"You Shut-up" Rudra replies furiously

"Bhai He is my husband !" Gauri replies shocked seeing the anger in Rudra's eyes for Omkara

"That's Why I do not like him-He makes you cry!"

Omkara's lip curve dejectedly I give her only pain even a third person can see that clearly

"He is Good and makes me happy -it is just today we had a difference - It is between us please do not intervene or talk bad about My husband !"

"I'll leave before I do something -" Rudra says and pauses and walks away upset leaving them alone .

"It is because of You He is upset!" Gauri tells frustrated looking at Omkara soon after Rudra leaves

"I am-

Gauri glares at him making him pause knowing what he is going to repeat .

"I'll talk to him" Omkara says instead

"No Thank you!" Gauri snorts and paces towards her room . She knows her bhai will come around in a while . She is frustrated as Omkara chose to walk away than answering her . If he lets out what is disturbing him and this relation at least She could make peace but this habit of walking away hurts her in thousand times. She has the courage to face the truth than being clueless and suffering in pain .

***

Rudra kicks the tire of his car in frustration . His Gauri, His baby sister, has started hiding things from him . Why?

"Let that poor thing live! " , Rudra angles his head to see a Pretty girl looking at him amused

"Who are You?" Rudra asks frowning

"They call me 'Bhavya'" She tells cheekily air-quoting her name making Rudra smile

"Are You smiling?" Bhavya grins

"I was feeling down" Rudra tells after a while

"Do-you wanna share?" Bhavya asks hesitating

"Why would I?"

"Sharing helps to reduce burden and-", Rudra raises his brow 'I am stranger after all-So-I could-"

"Can we sit?" Rudra cuts her off

Bhavya looks surprised at him and nods as they have a walk towards the nearby park and take a seat.

Rudra sits thoughtfully , He could not understand Gauri since the day she married -She had stopped updating about her life -before Even the smallest thing She would share-It was Rudra who she would call up to rant about the day she had -let it be about her old-annoying bald lecturer or the bad coffee her mumma makes every day then Why can't she share about her husband?"

"Mister !" Bhavya taps Rudra annoyed seeing him sitting silent for the past few minutes

"Ahh!" Rudra breaks from his daze and clears his throat to share "There is my friend-!"

Bhavya shows her palm stopping him "My friend has this problem blah blah blah -Why lie -When you and me know very well it is about You!"

Rudra lets out a troubled sigh "Smart woman ! "

Bhavya grins cheekily making him smile back at her "It is that I feel my sister is not happy with her husband-I went to see her today only to find her swollen eyes and then I got angry and pulled her husband's collar but she ended up defending him-" Rudra proceeds to tell all the details what happened there .

"You were Wrong!" Bhavya replies after a minute

"Why ?" Rudra asks calmly wanting to hear her side

"Mister-"

"Rudra"

"Rudra You did not try to know what really happened rather reacted as Your sister said it would have been a small issue or let me say even if it is a big one She would never tell you that her husband was wrong !"

"Why?"

"That's a wife thing Rudra -A Wife would endure love ,care and Pain given by her husband but never would say the bad side of her husband to her family because She does not want to let him down him down in her Family's eyes -let's say Truly she was hurt and she says you whatever her husband did to her--What will you do?"

"I will kill that B**std with my own hands!" He sneers fisting his hands

"There it goes -Even if he changes after a while and starts loving his wife -You, her Family , Would always see him as the bad guy who broke their little girl's heart once -Do you get it -A Woman always values her husband's pride in the eyes of her family above everything !"

Rudra nods thoughtfully remembering Gauri defending him then and now.

"You did Wrong ! You cannot just pull him by his collar just because he accepted he did wrong ! - He accepting in front of you knowing you would kill him knowing he hurt your sister shows how good he is ! , as far as understood from what you shared Your sister and her husband look out for each other - they are a compatible pair Rudra -Just let them alone for few days -they will sort out their issues -If more people move in it will make the problem more wider than smaller -You get it ? Talk to her husband and apologize or maybe get to know him well" Bhavya advices

Rudra nods with a small smile "Thank you !"

Bhavya nods acknowledging

"Seems like this pretty lady is taken" Rudra teases seeing the way she spoke about relationships

"Yes" Bhavya says winking while swinging the bag over her shoulder "by My Future Charming!"

Rudra's lips curve up as he flirts back "I am waiting for my Cinderella !"

"Ohh Bad luck There is no slipper glasses in Mussoorie!"

Rudra chuckles back seeing her retreating figure .

"Hello" Omkara answers the call now sitting on the couch in the living room while She was in their room thinking about how his life had taken 360 degrees at once

"I am Rudra "

"Oh" Omkara manages only to answer that "let me pass the phone to Gauri"

"No wait -I need to talk to you-alone" Rudra adds after a while

Omkara runs his two fingers around his temple getting into thinking and mutters Ok. Rudra messages the place .

Omkara looking at the locked room gets into thinking as he pulls his phone out he cannot leave Gauri alone and they have been famished since morning and now it is evening " Hello Anju maa "

***

"I am sorry" Rudra says after few minutes as they look to their front seeing small kids playing in the park

"Don't Be " Omkara replies with a smile "You have all the right to even kill me if I hurt your baby sister "

Rudra looks at him surprised as Bhavya words rings in his ear drums ,

He accepting in front of you knowing you would kill him knowing he hurt your sister shows how good he is

"She was right indeed You are good Omkara" Rudra mutters with a smile

Omkara smiles sadly I wish I could be for her ,

"Gauri and me were the only children from Our mother's side from cousins we were the ones who were too close - We grew up together Omkara -Overtime I became So protective off her that no guy had the nerve to cross me and go propose her " he says chuckling

Omkara hears at him intently seeing the love he has for Gauri in his words ,

"After I lost my parents in an accident it was Gauri and her Parents who were my family "

"I am Sorry for the loss" Omkara says feeling bad

"Don't be I am over it I guess Omkara -Overtime we need to let go off the people we loved after they leave the world and look at Our present !"

Omkara gets into deep thinking hearing Rudra's words as Randhir words of 'Moving on' comes in his mind

"Gauri helped me come out of the sorrow - I was against this marriage !" Rudra tells after a full minute

Omkara looks at his surprised and shocked 'Why?" was only he could ask

"Gauri Had dreams -She wanted to make her career first and then settle down -She did her undergraduate degree BBA in the idea of doing MBA later but this horoscope -"

"MBA and Horoscope?" Omkara asks quickly with the new piece of information

Rudra looks at him suspiciously "Gauri never told you ?"

Omkara stutters nervously "That-We-never got time to talk to each other!"

Rudra finds the answer out of place , Will it take hours to speak about this? And time What do they do the whole day then? , He decides not to ask remembering Bhavya saying never poke your nose into the matters of husband and wife

"If She does not get married before 24 She needs to wait for 12 years !"

Omkara's face falls seeing that She was bound to be tied although her wish was something else ,

"Omkara I know I should not have pulled you by your collar whatever the reasons are but She is my little girl-I have never seen her cry even during the vulnerable conditions but seeing her today I couldn't -I do not know what's the problem between you both and I am no one to come in between poking my nose but please I beg Don't make her cry -She deserves all the love and care !"

Omkara smiles sadly "She deserves everything in the world Rudra -She is so pure -She needs happiness love and care -Do not worry soon You would see her smiling !" Omkara tells assuring but his voice falls at the end as He gives a hug to Rudra and stands up wearing his goggles .

Rudra looks at Omkara walking away unsure "Why do I feel He sounded too sad?" but his words and the determination in his eyes gives Rudra hope , His little girl would be happy .
