FEELINGS FOR YOU

"Hi" he said it finally after rehearsing for the last few minutes.... Listening to the "Hi" Gauri straightened her posture from the freely lazy one to a straight mannered one on the couch....

"Oh hi" he got reply... She continued " I am sorry I thought Rudra abandoned me in this mansion and I was the one to take care here...."

" What do u mean by abandoned u??" Om questioned.... " I meant he was the one who pleaded infront of me to have a stay here and complete his work... I mean make him complete his work" She finished....

"Ha but I said abandoned u so meaning even he left u but why his work is still incomplete right????" Asked Om... "Yes ofcourse and that is left for me to be completed..." She said with a sulken face.... "And what does he bribe u with?" Asked om suppressing his anxiety to get to know more about her... "Umm nothing I don't think a friend needs to be bribed..." Casually answered Gauri...

"As far as I know Gauri doesn't do anything without bribe... So if u say u weren't bribed surely it is something related to being blackmailed.... " He stated..... She screamed from within.... "Oh god how does he know that I have been blackmailed... Gauri u ought to show no worries that he has caught the right string just be calm...." "No why do u think he would blackmail me... Anyways leave that I thought no one's at home... I mean Oberoi mansion....."

"It's ok u can call it home because i toh have seen u most of the time here only.... Sorry continue"... Gauri in her own thoughts "Did he just say I have seen u most of the time here only... Means he notices me... Gauri this Rudra was all fake... How could he just shoot that om never noticed me... So rude of him..."

Om snaps his fingers in front of her "Oh hello where are u lost... I asked you to continue" "Oh sorry... As I was saying all the elder oberois and my family has gone to the great wedding... And Shivaay bhayya and bhabhi have gone out for their romantic night.... This is why Rudra had called me up so that we won't get bored...."

"You didn't ask Rudra where I would be???" He snapped this statement at her... "How should I tell u om... You were the first person I enquired about and that differ Oberoi told u are out on a date....  Just to make me jealous... That idiot is going to face alot now" she thought....

"Again u are lost I am sure u might be thinking about the blackmail right... Tell me didn't u ask about me..." "I already told na he doesn't blackmail me... He doesn't have any secret of mine... And ha about u he told me were off on a date...."

"What a lier he is why would I be on a date when I haven't been asked for even for a single time.... Anyways you leave about me tell where did Rudra go leaving u alone behind in this mansion..."

"He left me for that party along with his girlfriend Romi"... "Oh a new girlfriend" "yes Ofcourse... To be honest I hate her"

"Is it and why???" "Because she accused me of breaking her relationship with Rohan"

"So u Rohan was cheating on Romi with u" "That's what Romi thinks...." "Meaning... Would u like to explain" "surely... I guess it was last week Rohan asked me on a date and it was just a coffee date so why not I said a Yes" "What u went on a date..." "Mainly because I was hungry... And that's when Rohan was caught by Romi..... She broke all ties with him and then all the melodrama happened.... Lastly Rudra pacified Romi inorder to impress her ofcourse... And now they are dating"

"Oh so which party have they gone to??"
"It was our college's club night... I didn't have a partner so I ended up here"

"Ohk so what are u actually doing... I was feeling bored so thought of surfing through the channels but seems like I got something interesting on the television"... "Yea, shinchan.... It's my favourite show..." "What is still watch shinchan.... It seems ages that I must have watched kids shows"

"Why is there a law that after becoming an adult u are restricted from watching cartoons and kids shows... I love shinchan and once u start seeing it from my way u would also love it" "You are so cute Gauri" saying this he pulls her cheeks... While she give him a pout as a reaction of pulling her cheeks....

"Sorry sorry won't do it again...." "Better be it... Anyways as it is the show is over here take this and see what ever you want" "why I don't want to watch other cartoon" "nope I am bored... U do just as I say... Watch what u want" "No I want to go out why don't we go to the same club where Rudra is gone???" "Om don't understand it's a couple themed party" what will I and u do going there" "Why can't we go as couples" "Why would u go out with me to a club as a couple... Do u like me no right... Do u have feeling for me no right then what's the use of going to such a party..." "Who told u I don't have feelings for u" "Ofc Rudy mustn't be.... Wait what... What did u just say Omkara..... Just repeat it for me once I want to make sure I heard it right" "Ok just because u are insisting so much I'll repeat it... WHO TOLD U I DONT HAVE FEELINGS FOR U" "What Omkara u like me" He nods in a Yes "What am I dreaming.... My om likes me yes...." "Wait dear a slight change its not like it's love" "WHAT!!?!!!" "Are u ok Gauri.... Ok wait I know I should have done this before itself".... He gets in to the usual kneeling position

"Ok so miss Gauri Kumari Sharma I wanted to tell u this since many years but I had to wait only because of my stupid brother sorry about that but here I am lucky to tell u that I love u Gauri... Will u accept my proposal gauri... Will u accept my love... Will u accept my flaws and enter my life as my partner... Will u take the seven vows with me taking rounds of the havan... Will u be my wife Gauri...." "Yes Omkara.... I will accept Ur proposal.... I will accept Ur flaws and enter Ur life as Ur life partner... I will take the seven vows with u taking rounds of the havan... Yes omkara I'll will be Ur wife...."

"Om why did u wait for so long... " "The same person who made u wait so long" "what even u... This Rudra na.... I don't know how is he going to deal with our anger tomorrow... Anyways tell me how many years did u wait?" "5 years 10 months 24 days " "oh god... Are u serious u know the date as well I mean how" "Gauri it's the day when I saw u for the first time... Remember how u and Ur family had shifted over here... I still remember that chirpy cutie 18 year old entering the mansion in full excitement.... I still remember how pleasantly u greeted everyone.... I still remember that grey crop top and those slim fit jeans which made me fall in love for u... I still remember how u acknowledged Shivaay as bhayya and me as Omkara though I was elder to you.... I still remember those starting days of yes in Mumbai when u and Rudra got close friends and u had a reason to visit here each and everyday.... I still...." "Enough om.... I don't want u to remember anything I just want u to see me right know and let's just live the present... Let's just forget about those times where because of Rudra we missed asking eachother out... We missed the chance of confessing our love to eachother...." " I know Gauri ... Chill... Bye the way what had Rudra told u that u never confessed" "He told that u are a mature kind of a person who only loves or would fall for a mature person... And u know I am completely filled with childishness .... After that I have tried so much of trying to become mature but it didn't happen... Om yaar this Rudra na.... U know how much I was hurt when he told me u would never love me.... I had literally joined my hands infront of him to make him help me to get u..." "Same was with me.... I had to give off my half of my savings... " "That was way much than I used to do for that duffer Oberoi"

"By the way as now we have confessed our feelings why not get to the next level" he said it in his hypnotic husky voice.... He starts moving towards Gauri on the couch when she moves behind... And soon his body was nearer to hers....

His lips were about to kiss her but..... Gauri brought a pillow between their faces... " Oh no yaar Gauri I was waiting for it to happen and u" "what u wait there's another thing" she gets up from the couch and throws the same pillow on him.... Om grabs the same pillow and throws at Gauri but it misses its aim.... "Oh god om Ur aim is so bad" "is it my aim is so bad... I will show u ... " He couldn't complete there was another pillow thrown at him... "Just wait " "Do u thing I'll wait ... Bye!!!!" she runs off towards the stairs and Om follows her "Gauri wait u will pay for it baby..." He throws the pillow at her and she cleverly dodges it.... "See I am really good at this... I am sure there will be no one has been born who will hit me with a pillow...." "I take this as a challenge then... Don't worry I will be that one" she ignored him and ran to the first floor of the mansion and soon she entered rudra's room... " Ohhhhhh god I think I should lock the door" she thought... While closing the door she felt some greater force applied at the same time from the other side... She  knew it was om... Putting her complete strength she pushed the door behind but no worth he had already entered the room... " So what were u telling I cannot throw pillow at u na... " This time the pillow had hit its aim.... "Finally" Gauri started to cry.... "What happened Gauri... Did the pillow hit u hard" he wiped those tears using his hands... "First time I lost om" "What u are crying because of this" "yes om it was really wrong that I lost and that too from u..." " Chill Gauri it's all ok... Because when there is live there is no loser... Stop crying now....."

"Oh my Mata" dumbstruck Rudra shouted looking at rikara's closeness.... " Rudra u know what we were waiting for u idiot.... U are going to pay for all the lies you have told... And remember it's not just me even Gauri is going to give us punishment" Om smirked while saying this... "MOM OM IS THREATENING ME!!!!!" " " Jhanvi aunty is not here.... Now u have no one to be saved by Mr. Duffer Singh Oberoi"

Rudra ran for his life towards the hall but how could he be saved from RIKARA... They had caught hold of him.... "God save me"

" You have to do as we say" "What is it" asked Rudra with the most frightened face because he knew the two very well... Their cunning mind when it comes to giving punished....

"So my punishment is that u will have to do a hundred situps" "oh that's it Gauri Ur punishment.... " "Arre wait let me complete u have to do a hundred situps holding Ur ears and saying sorry after every situp" " What no... Om pls ask Gauri to not give this" "No u have no running away this time Rudra u have to do this"

Poor Rudra started off with the punishment at a high-speed but after a fifty situps his energy and speed both had slowed this was when the elders and shivika enter the mansion....

" What is going on??" asks Tej.... "Dad this duffer is given punishment" "What but why" "Umm dad... Actually" "I'll tell you dad... I lied to Gauri and Om not making them confess their love... That is why they are punishing me" "Wait what" Jhanvi and Nayana (Gauris mother) exclaimed... " Yes they love eachother and I told them that they don't deserve eachother so that I could be the one benefited" "And how were u benefited Rudy" Shivaay keenly asks Rudra... "Ummm I used to blackmail these two" "Finally u did something which we wanted to do Rudra " said Tej and Harshvardhan (Gauris father)  " Yes Tej I am so happy that Rudra made them say it finally otherwise god knows how many more years we should have waited for them" happily said Harshvardhan "Exactly Harsh... Thanks Rudra thank u so much" says Nayana

" What's going on can u explain" Gauri finally asked out of curiosity.... "What do u both think none of us knew u loved eachother.... Ofcouse we knew it but only u two were the tube lights of our house who didn't understand it Gauri and Om do u both have any idea how long we waited for this moment... I am so happy now... " Explained Jhanvi

" I am so happy finally Gauri my baccha will become the daughter in-law of this house and my grandson om has finally made it.... " Joyed dadi.... " Meaning u guys have no problem" "ofcourse not" all said in an unison except Gauri om and Rudra... 

" I am so excited so let's call the priest tomorrow itself"asks rudra "why not" replies dadi.... While all kept discussing about their marriage rikara where into some other world altogether.... "So soon to be Mrs. Omkara Singh Oberoi how do u feel now" "Special, I am so glad om that u confessed.... Otherwise just like Jhanvi maa said along with them even we would have to wait for like ages for either of us to get to know rudra's intentions...." "Yes baby.... Wait Rudra he still needs to complete his punishment"

They look towards their family and find all busy in discussion while Annika and Shivaay come towards them and take them in a bone crashing hug....  " I am so happy for u both" "even me shivaay... Finally I have Gauri as my company.... I'll tell u one thing these obros are really boring" "That I know still I fell in love with my jatadhari" "jata... Jata what" all the three pounce on her with this question.. "Aree jatadhari is a word usually for long haired men...." " Oh is it"

" I think let's call it a night tomorrow we have so much of work...." Said dadi.... " No wait one thing is left" "What is it om" "rudra's punishment" all bursted out in laughter...
