Ding dong!!! The door bell rang seeking gauri's attention who was peacefully reading a book.
There was a parcel in Omkara's name. He wasn't home.
She received it, thinking about what it could be she started to open it. Before she could do so her gardener called her.

"Gauri madam... I have something for you. " Raam said.
Leaving the parcel there on table she moved to the garden with him.

"What is it Raam Bhaiya? " Gauri asked confused.

"Omkara baba got these new variety rose plants for you...see i planted them." Raam said while his eyes were on that parcel.

"Wow! How beautiful... When did he do this? " Gauri asked amazed looking at them.
She was very much fond of roses . And Omkara never left any chance to make her feel good by bringing variety of roses for her garden every other day.
Gauri clicked a few pictures of her garden as usual and went inside again. While Raam was still looking worried as Gauri took the parcel to open again. He closed his eyes in disbelief.

But by God's grace, before she could open it. Omkara came back from his work.

"Hey beautiful"  He said taking the parcel from her.
He called Raam and handed it over to him.

"Raam bhaiya... These are some paints... Please paint gauri's mini plants pots." Omkara said while Raam just nodded positively and left. Omkara sighed.

"So... My beautiful... Your mini pots would get painted soon now... Happy? " He said smiling at her while she smiled back and said - " You never forget to fulfill my wishes"
"And i never will"  He replied back and winked at her.

"By the way close your eyes... I've got something. " Said Omkara  , while Gauri followed.
And like every other day he took out a rose which he plucked from her garden and put it in her hair.
As soon as his hands touched her hair, she realised what he did.

She fumed at him, for plucking rose from her garden. "Aghhhh you!!!!..... How many times should i tell you ---  before she could complete, she heard him say - " They are not roses but my babies... Don't you dare pluck them Omkara.... I'll kill you! "

He actually mimicked her, exactly the way she shouts at him. She gave him a deadly glare while he winked at her showing another rose he had plucked. She closed her eyes sighing.  Then giving him " God!!! This man is impossible. "  kinda expression she hit him playfully at his arm. While he made weired expressions.

"Okay now enough... Lemme rest I'm tired. " Omkara laughed, so did she.

They look perfect when happy!

A few hours later :

Omkara was in their room with that parcel he gave to Raam. It was a bottle of tablets. He was being aware and continuously looking at the door, as if trying not get caught by her.

He was empting the tablets in other bottle, but why?

"I know you gonna give me those meds again! But i won't eat either." He muttered and Successfully exchanged the meds from one bottle to another and smirked.

He was just done with doing so, suddenly Gauri came with a glass of milk. Giving him the meds she dressed his wounds and applied ointment over his bruises. Her eyes were teary seeing those marks.

Omkara was too quick to notice her upset face. Just then her wrist cut seeked his attention. Holding her hand he made her sit beside him and carressed her hands which had many bruises over them.

"Why Gauri? Why are you letting me hurt you?
I can't see you in pain.... Just go away" He said looking at her sadly.

"Shh... I told you... We'll conquer this together... It's nothing omkara...you didn't do it. "  She said smiling at him.

"Seriously Gauri? It's nothing? Look at yourself....
These wounds... These marks.... Who did this?
I know it's me. You can't lie.... I don't want to give you this much pain.... Hey beautiful! You don't deserve it in return of loving me. Stop it! Please" He mumbled looking at her. His voice faded out towards the end. He felt bad seeing her like this.
He loved her, he loves her but this is not what she deserves from him.

It kills him seeing her like this  , and more than that it kills him knowing that he's responsible for her condition.

"You're overthinking... I'm telling you it's nothing.
You're getting better.... And you know i love you... Right? I can't stop loving you... Never ever... Omkara... Never ever"  She said placing a kiss at his knuckles gently.

She had loved him with all her heart. She would no way stop loving this man at any cost. Coz She knows they would conquer it together.

"Sleep now.... You need rest. " Gauri said making him lay down , covering him with the blanket she dimmed out the lights and dozed off herself too!

______________________________________

Gauri was fast asleep. Seems she hasn't slept peacefully for long.
She woke up suddenly and sat  sweating all over. Her breathes were fastened and heart was racing. Did she see a bad dream?
"Omkara"  Was the only name she mumbled in merely audible voice. Looking around her, she got up quickly as he wasn't there.

"I'm in love with the shape of you... I'm in love with your body."  She heard a male voice humming the song. She did realize whose voice it was.
"Omkara" She moved outside, saying so. Following the source of voice, she reached the balcony of other room.

There he was!

Sitting on a swing, he was humming a song. His back was facing her so she couldn't see his face. But the way he was sitting there, humming the song it felt very very strange. Something was wrong for sure.

"Last night you were in my room, now my bedsheet smells like you..." Gauri heard him singing further as she moved closer. She was little stunned with the choice of song. He was a 90s songs lover and suddenly  this song... Huh! Let it be . He was humming, forgetting the whole world . And was moving his head in a way as if he was kind of dancing with the lyrics.

His heavy , husky voice made the song sound more intense. As every word escaped his lips, the song felt deadly beautiful. The room echoed with his voice though he was just humming, but damnn there was something in that voice. A different kind of spark, a different kind of intensity, a different kind of vibe which could make anyone skip multiple heart beats at a time . The song was already a romantic melody, but he hummed it with a little slow pace of the song's rhythm  which made it sound  full of million emotions yet very awkward. 

As gauri moved little more closer, she started feeling little more scared and awkward at same time.

"I'm in love with the shape of you."  Words escaped his lips again. Gauri didn't make any sound. As soon as she moved a step more forward she was stunned to see what he was doing.
She couldn't react. Her limbs went numb for a few moments. She put her hand at her mouth to avoid making any sound. Her eyes were teary as well. A sense of fear was visible in them, more than worry.

What did she saw? Damn! Was it Reyhaan again? Or something else?

She saw him holding a knife in his hand. He was playing with it as if it was a toy. He didn't stop humming the song, rather was constantly looking at the knife , checking it from every where, it kinda felt as if he was talking with it only . He looked a total maniac being that time. His smile felt  terrorising , his eyes had a different kind of expression. He looked a complete stranger to her.
He behaved like a psycho.
"This could not be him." The only thing her heart screamed. She was hell scared seeing him like that. Gauri could not breathe.

Everytime he had lost his senses, she was there to hold him and pacify him but this scene just scared the hell out of her. A differently terrorising vibe came from him. Reacting was far away, she couldn't breathe even. Without even making a pin drop sound she rushed away from there.

She laid down on her side of the bed and started crying. She was scared as well as upset. What's happening. What did she just saw?
"Omkara.." She sobbed silently saying his name.

Seeing him like that made her feel more miserable.
What should she do now? She kinda knew what may happen next!
He would be violent again. He would hurt not only her but himself too. He is already weak and again he would hurt himself.
"Why did i leave him alone... I should go back to him.... He had knife, he would hurt himself... No... No.... " She was going through a battle inside her. What the hell should she do now?

"I'm in love with the shape of you... " She heard his voice again, next moment she realised he was coming towards that side only. She could feel him coming there with his every step moving forward.
His voice was frightening her more, not for herself but himself.
