Gauri was not able to analyse what was happening around her. All she could see was darkness and only darkness scattered around. Though she knew that no one was home but this darkness was now scaring her. She was shouting and calling names like crazy.

Suddenly a ray of light fell on a canvas which had her picture on it. A painting of a girl... wait not girl... her... painting of her... and... and him

"Remember this. Well I do. I met my chirraiya back in bareilley when I was as usual in my.. um.... "Nandi" mode and my chirraiya was the dabbangg one. I didn't knew that time that I would fall for this little woman and a day would come when I would not be even able to live without her being on my side. Stubborn I was and beautiful you were. Let's drive back together to the memory lane and witness everything according to what I felt... let's get remembering everything I could not speak to you... and hear what I wanted to tell you..............."

She was stunned to hear his voice out of nowhere. He was nowhere present "Omkaraji... Omkarajiii..." she called out. But no one answered.

The light closed and then came up on another one

"First time in my life I felt that someone was there to understand what kind of havoc was there in my heart. The time you said "zaroor aapke saath kisis nein bahut bada dhokha kiya hoga" I wanted to tell you everything but then you were a stranger. And I was an idiot who only heard of his mind. I knew my mind was not the right one but then the situations back then didn't allowed me to trust my heart. I wanted to trust on you; to say that yes you are correct but then I was a coward. I feared losing my heart to yet another wrong person."

Tears were there in her eyes. She wanted to see him right now. Why was he doing this?? "Omkaraji... please samne aaiye..." she said sobbing.

Yet again the light shifted to another painting..

"Remember our marriage... the day I was blessed with you... you might have thought that I was some kind of miracle that happened to you... but no.. you were the light that paved her way to me. Too proud to accept but I wanted to run back to you... hold you and tell you that though I don't know what was happening in my heart but I know that there was something... like a connection that I felt with you... but the hatred I had didn't even let me turn back."

Gauri didn't even notice that Omkara was still there... hiding with the mic he was speaking on. Caught up with so many emotions all of those memories went back to her rushing.

Omkara, on the other hand, had a difficult time to stop himself to not to rush to her and stop all those tears from her eyes. But then he had to tell her everything that he wanted her to know... that she deserved to know

"This day when I told 'chulbul' about Gauri... this time when eventually I admitted that I hate you the most. First time in my life did I not mean my words; the time I said that you were the person I hate the most something pricked inside. But the heart was too wounded to even recognise the pain that took place. I heard that love and hate are almost the similar feelings but I didn't know that I myself would take it that wrong."

And the first blank was filled. Satisfaction and contentment was what she felt. He never hated her. He wanted her.

"The things changed. The situations changed. But still I was not ready to accept what my heart was continuously telling me. I did not ever understand my feelings. But the time I saw you crying outside in rain. The first and the only thing that came to my mind was to wipe your tears away. The only thing I wanted to do was to embrace you and then never let go. First time I followed my heart and I got a sense of happiness around me. I, Omkara... felt happy with the little woman in my arms."

Gauri couldn't help the smile that ran around her face even when she was sobbing. She was not able to do anything but admire the efforts he took to convey his feelings to her... in his unique way.

And the light shifted again

"You remember this; the time when I told you to not leave. At first I thought that I was indebted to you but then I realised that it was the purity of your heart that I was attracted to. Never in my life had I felt that I would be ready to beg to someone but that time I was even ready to do that for you. You asked me the reason for requesting you to stay but I myself didn't know that why your presence was important.... so much so that it felt suffocated if you were not around.""

The sobs increased even more. Knowing that he wanted her when she felt that she was no one to him was all that she wanted in her life.

This time the light moved to all those events which were left unanswered.

"All these times when you asked me about what you were in my life... all those questions that I didn't answer was only because I did not wanted to tell you about the storm in my mind. Instead I shouted on you or many times maintained the silence which was not at all needed. I know I would have spoken to you and asked you about your heart and your feelings but whenever I saw you crying it made me go numb. I all those times cursed myself to be the reason of those tears that fell from those eyes. "

Shocked... surprised... happy were just words for what she felt that time.

"Remember this... the time you told me that love for you was what your Shankerji shared with Parvatiji. Remember your question "aapke liye pyaar kya hai?" and I was still not able to answer. I would have dogged the topic there but love for me was you and only you. Never would I have recognised that I could also be loved if you were not present to tell me that. The battle inside me never let me guess what I felt for you. Never did I could clear and tell my stubborn self to understand what I felt whenever you asked me about your importance."

Teri aahat ke bina yeh dil dhadakta nahi

Tere bina yeh sason ka karwaan ruk jaega

Mein khuda ke samne sar uthaye ghoomta hun

Tera naam goonja mera sar jhuk jaega

She lifted her tear filled eyes as he entered the hall and all the lights shifted to her direction. More tears ran down her cheeks as she rushed towards him. Crying on his chest she held him tightly. Tight enough to not let him go anywhere. "Hum.. hum dar gaye the... vo.. vo... letter" she said between her sobs. "Voh letter maine destroy karne ke liye apne table ki first file mein rakha tha" she moved her chin up in confusion. "Haan Shivaay nein mujhe bataya tha. Voh letter mujhe destroy karna tha" he answered. "Toh aap aaye kyun nahi" she asked in a mere whisper. "Because I wanted to make this special and I knew I would not be able to stop myself if I even heard you" he answered.

"Waah yaar.. ek dum khidkitod dramatic love story hai tumahri. Bilkul humari tarah, hai na Shivaay" all the other four came out of their hiding places. "Haan, bilkul..." Shivaay agreed. "Aur bhabhi aapne toh kabhi hume bataya hi nahi" Bhavya spoke. "Ab tum ACP ho toh tumhe sab bata dein. Privacy naam ki bhi koi cheez hoti hain" Rudra interrupted.

"Haan toh privacy ke bachche, ab chal nikal. Privacy de hume" Omkara said to Rudra as Gauri giggled in his arms. "Haan .. haan.. ab kahan yaad aegi humari" Rudra taunted. "Eisa nahi hai Rudy Bhaiya" Gauri said. "kaisa bhi nahi hai.. aap jaieye... Rudra ko hum samhaal lenge" Bhavya answered. "Kahan jaana hai?" Gauri asked. "Bharosa hai mujhpe?" Omkara asked. "Khudse zyada" she smiled. "Toh chalo" he smiled back.

She didn't know where she was going. She did not even wanted to; because she had him with her and they were going to start their lives afresh and this time without any misunderstandings.

It's a wrap guys... hope you all enjoyed it...
