"Bye, Omkara." Gauri said unbuckling the seat belt, as Omkara parked his car in front of her college.

"Wait." Omkara stopped Gauri holding her hand.

"What happened?"

"You got dirt on your face." Omkara said taking out his hand kerchief and wiping her cheeks.

"Can I go now?" Gauri asked once Omkara finished.

"Now, you are good to go." Omkara smiled.

Gauri waved at Omkara and walked inside her college.

"Prepare a detailed analysis on this project, Mr. Shastri and get me the monthly report from the finance department." Omkara instructed giving the project file to Arjun.

"Okay Sir, anything else?" Arjun asked taking the file from the desk.

"Nothing as for now, I am taking an early off today, cancel appointments and move important things to tomorrow's schedule." Omkara said in a dismissing tone.

Arjun nodded and left the room closing the door behind.

Omkara stretched himself in the chair taking of his coat and unbuttoning the upper two buttons of his shirt.

"Hmm... This is so much better." Omkara said leaning in his chair trying to relax after having a busy day at work.

"O___" Rudra barged inside with a cotton candy and a gift wrapped box in his hands, looking like a happy kid on Christmas, making Omkara curse his fate.

"Wanna have some?" Rudra asked forwarding the cotton candy in Omkara's direction.

"What are you? A five year old? To eat a cotton candy." Omkara asked annoyed.

"You don't have to be a kid to enjoy things, O. Besides this cotton candy is so good." Rudra said eating the candy making Omkara roll his eyes.

"What's that?" Omkara asked eyeing at the gift paper wrapped thing in Rudra's hand.

"Oh this." Rudra said following Omkara's sight, "This is a gift for you, from Me." Rudra said excitedly forwarding the gift towards Omkara.

"A gift? From you, for me." Omkara said taking the gift from Rudra, looking at it suspicious.

"Come on, O, open it." Rudra said rubbing his hands.

Omkara contemplated.

"Come on, O, it's just a gift not some bomb. Open it." Rudra persuaded.

"You better not be playing some crazy prank on me." Omkara said opening the gift.

"This__ you brought this for me?" Omkara asked looking at the gift.

"Yes, It's the most reasonable and 100% useful gift, I can ever give to you." Rudra grinned.

"Really Rudra, " Guide to Romance, for Amateurs", didn't you find anything good to gift." Omkara asked irritated.

"It is a good gift, O." Rudra said defending, "You and I both know you suck at Romantic things and this," He said pointing at the book, "this will help you, you can follow this in order to impress Gauri and make her fall in love with you." Rudra finished with a dreamy sigh.

"You are an idiot, Rudra, for buying stupid gifts like this and I don't want this one." Omkara said pushing the book towards Rudra.

"It's a gift O, you should accept it and I won't take it back." Rudra said standing from the seat.

"It's the time the Joey Cafe opens, I have to hurry in order to grab hold of their freshly baked doughnuts. Bye O." Rudra said exiting out.

Omkara sighed looking at the book on his table.

"Should I read the book like Rudra said?" Omkara thought, "Rudra's mad, who follows books like this in order to impress girls. I don't need any guide to impress Gauri." He said taking the book to place it inside his desk drawer.

"What's so good about this book, may be I should take a look at the book for once, it won't make any harm besides I don't want to hurt Rudra's feelings." Omkara convinced himself to open the book.

Tip 1 : Buy Flowers for your girl.

"What stupid tip is this? Buy flowers? Why should one waste money on buying flowers that would get wither away in few hours. This book is just a waste of time." Omkara thought pushing the book in the rack between his files and other books.

"It's the time, I should go and pick up Gauri." Omkara said grabbing his coat and walking out of his cabin.

"Not again." Omkara groaned struck in traffic waiting for the traffic light to turn green.

As he turned to his left he spotted a lady selling flower bouquets.

Buy flowers for your girl.

Omkara remembered the tip, he read from the book, Rudra gifted him.

"One flower bouquet please." Omkara asked rolling his window down.

"Hi Omkara." Gauri said sitting inside the car.

"Hi, How was your day?" Omkara smiled.

"It was good, we had few lectures and practice work, I enjoyed. "

"That's good to know." Omkara said with his focus on the road as he drove.

Gauri began to look out of the window and Omkara glanced at her sideways, and then looking at the flowers in the back seat through the mirror.

"I did brought the flowers but how am I gonna give them to her? How will she react?" Omkara thought as they neared the gates of their apartment.

"Finally." Gauri said jumping in the sofa and relaxing in it as soon as she entered into Omkara's apartment.

Omkara walked inside, hiding the flowers behind him.

"Gauri." He called standing in front of her.

"Hmm." Gauri hmmed changing the channels on the TV.

"Gauri, I brought___"

"Tangled." Gauri clapped as found Tangled movie being played on the TV.

"Gauri." Omkara called again, this time gaining Gauri's attention.

"Yes." Gauri said looking at Omkara.

"Umm..." Omkara blushed forwarding the flowers towards Gauri, "I brought flowers for you."

"Thank you, Omkara." Gauri said taking the flowers, "They are beautiful." She said smelling them making Omkara sigh in relief and smile.

"But, what do I do with these flowers?" Gauri asked looking at the flowers in her hand.

"Mmm... You can put them in vase." Omkara offered.

"But you don't have any vases in your apartment." Gauri pointed out.

"Oh, yes." Omkara said remembering, how he has strictly instructed the interior designer to avoid any flower vases or floral prints in his apartment cause he thought they were feminine and he doesn't want anything that reminds him of female species in his home.

"So, what do we do now?" Omkara asked looking at Gauri, who was playing with the petals of the flowers touching them delicately.

"I don't know..." Gauri said raising her head to look at Omkara but instead found him looking intently at the TV.

"Omkara."

"You can wear them in your hair like that girl in the movie." Omkara said pointing at Rapunzel, who was getting her hair getting braided and decorated with flowers by the little girls.

"I can but unlike Rapunzel, I don't have anyone to do my hair." Gauri said looking down.

"Can you do my hair?" Gauri asked suddenly looking at Omkara with her eyes sparkling with hope.

Hope you guys enjoyed a full chappy of Rikara, but I have to say that there will be Shivika scenes in next few chapters, cause they're  important for the story to move forward. So, you have to tolerate with that :/

And also please note that I will not be updating My stories on Sundays.

Sunday is a Holiday :)
