Chapter 52
"Here, we are." Omkara said stopping the car in front of Anika's home.
"Anika di and Bhavya will be waiting for me, Bye Omkara." Gauri said unbuckling the seat belt and grabbing her backpack.
"Gauri, wait." Omkara said stopping Gauri as she was about to open the door.
"Did I forgot anything." Gauri asked checking around.
"No." Omkara said removing his seat belt and turning to face Gauri, who was watching his every step.
"Stay safe, Okay." Omkara said cupping Gauri's face, "Don't go anywhere leaving Anika and Bhavya's side and call me if you have any problem, Ok."
"Okay." Gauri nodded.
"Good." Omkara smiled, "I wish I could join you for this outing but Anika strictly warned me, it's a Girls day out and me being a guy, I am not allowed." Omkara said with a dull look.
"Don't be sad, Omkara. I will call you and will be back soon." Gauri cheered placing her hand against Omkara's stubble cheeks.
"I will miss you." Omkara said leaning into Gauri's hand.
"I_I will miss you too, Omkara." Gauri said looking into Omkara's eyes.
Omkara dipped his head down towards Gauri's lips and Gauri closed her eyes in an unknown anticipation. His one hand against Gauri's cheek held her in position, while the other hand held her behind her head pulling her face closer to him. Ever so slowly his lips grazed against her soft ones making a shiver pass through both their bodies.
Knock __ Knock.
The sudden knock on the Omkara's car window startled Omkara and Gauri, making them jump back in to their positions.
"Gauri? Omkara?" Anika called standing on the opposite side of the tinted window. "Are you there?"
Omkara pulled up his shirt collar and quickly patted Gauri's hair to it's neat position before rolling down the glass.
"Hi Anika." Omkara greeted with a nervous smile.
"Hi Omkara." Anika smiled, "I noticed your car from my kitchen and was worried since no one got down the car for quiet a while, I thought there's some problem."
"Oh, sorry for making you worried, Anika. Everything's alright, I was just making sure that Gauri brought everything that's need for her day out." Omkara said silently praying for Gauri to not open her mouth.
"There's nothing to worry about that, Omkara. I will handle everything." Anika said opening the door for Gauri to get down.
"Bye, Omkara." Gauri waved as she walked towards Anika's home.
"Anika." Omkara said walking near Anika.
"Yes."
"Can you buy some feminine dresses for Gauri." Omkara said rubbing his neck.
"With pleasure, Omkara." Anika smiled.
"Thank you." Omkara said taking out his black card and giving it to Anika.
"No need for that, Omkara. I will buy it for Gauri." Anika refused.
"Please, Anika, I want to gift a dress for her to wear on her college fundraiser party and since I don't have any knowledge about feminine things, I want to ask your help."
"Okay, then. If that's what you want." Anika smiled taking the card and waving at Omkara as she walked towards her home.
"Okay, girls." Anika said looking at Gauri and Bhavya. "Let's grab some food and continue our shopping."
"Yes, let's eat something, I am hungry." Gauri said releasing a exhausted sigh with her hands on her hips.
"I am tired carrying these bags all around." Bhavya said in a tired tone.
"It would have been good, if we had someone to carry all our luggage." Anika said placing the bags on the table as they sat in the food court of the shopping mall.
"Let's place our orders." Gauri said grabbing the menu.
"Hello, Beautiful ladies." A flirtatious voice came making them turn around to the direction of the voice.
"Ru__" Gauri was the first one to exclaim.
"Yes, the one and only." Rudra said opening his arm and pulling up his collar.
"What are you doing here, Rudra?" Anika asked narrowing her eyes.
"I was passing by and saw you girls and thought of__"
"Okay, now tell me the truth." Anika said impatiently.
"Well, I heard Omkara say that you are all heading to the mall. So, I thought to join you." Rudra said with a sheepish smile making Anika roll her eyes and Gauri and Bhavya to giggle.
"For shouting out loud, Rudra, this is supposed to be a Girls day out and don't you have office today?" Anika said shaking her head.
"Come on, Anika." Rudra said pulling a chair beside Bhavya and settling himself, "I am your friend and I am getting bored sitting in my office, please allow me to help you with your shopping."
"Rudra, No." Anika said strictly.
"Please, Anika, Please." Rudra said joining his hands showing puppy eyes.
"Accept his request Anika di, we can abandon poor Ru." Gauri said supporting Rudra while Bhavya shook her head looking at Rudra's antics.
"Ok." Anika sighed in defeat, "But you are carrying our shopping bags." She said pointing her finger at Rudra.
"Thank you, Anika." Rudra said giving a bear hug to Anika making her laugh and slap his arm.
"Omkara, I checked these reports, they are all good and we can proceed with our new project." Shivaay said.
"Omkara." Shivaay called out loud as he found Omkara checking his mobile not paying attention to him.
"Sorry, Shivaay. You were telling something." Omkara said looking at Shivaay.
"Any problem, Omkara? You seemed to be a bit concerned."
"Nothing, Shivaay, It's just I was worried about Gauri, she didn't called me yet."
"Oh, she went with Anika and Bhavya for that stupid Girls day out, that Anika warned us to stay away, right?"
"Yes." Omkara nodded.
"Even, I tried calling Anika a while ago and she said that she's all good and not to call and disturb." Shivaay said shaking his head.
"I assume you and Anika are happy together." Omkara said.
"Yes, we are." Shivaay said, "except for the fact that she's a mad woman, who always puts me in my place, she's different from all the other women I met and I am glad for that."
"I am happy for you, Shivaay." Omkara smiled.
"Thank you, Omkara." Shivaay said.
"I think, I should call Gauri and speak with her instead of waiting for her to call me." Omkara said taking his phone and calling Gauri.
"Hello, Omkara." Gauri said answering her call.
"Gauri, where are you? Are you all are good?"
"We all are good, Omkara and we are in the shopping mall buying dresses."
"Good." Omkara said, "Did you had your lunch?"
"Yes, Omkara I ate mushroom ravioli and it was delicious, I will bring a take away for you, you should try it."
"We will go and eat it together sometime." Omkara smiled.
"Okay."
"Ok, Enjoy your___"
"Chocolate cone for me, Ru." Gauri shouted while speaking with Omkara making him stop mod sentence and frown.
