Chapter 13 The Truth Unfold



After they continued their drive Home neither of them spoke a word. They didn't have to because they have said everything they ever wanted to say. Omkara opened the door with his keys and Gauri smiled ;entering her House again. Being at her parents' house just proved that after you started to live somewhere else to start a life in a new house you missed it the minute you would leave it. This was her Home now, her and Omkara's home and soon their child would come into this world. They would be a happy family.

"I will go up and sleep immediately. Tonight was a rough night and tomorrow I would love to talk to you about what I found out today." Gauri said going up the stairs to their room. Omkara followed her undoing his tie.

"Does it have something to do with Arjun being at your parents' house tonight?" he smiled faintly at her and Gauri looked a bit shocked.

"Maybe, did he say anything before you punched him?"

"Well before I punched him , I watched him leave and knew he wanted to apologize for his behavior and maybe explain to you why he did so. I knew that he was saying Goodbye I have seen it in his eyes before almost knocking him uncocnious ." Omkara kissed her forehead and helped her change into her Night gown. She just nodded, happy about the fact how mature and calm he reacted. Looks like he really trusts me, Gauri thought with a smile and lay down to sleep. Om laughed silently almost as if he could hear her thinking and took a shower to wash away all the doubts and fears he had experienced the past few hours.

After seeing Arjun leaving her House He was sure he just came to apologize to her. He trusted his wife and knew she could never cheat on him. Knowing that he could have lost her for good made him rethink his trust issues. Maybe Arjun was needed to bring in that Change in him, Omkara thought and took out a few clothes to wear when he suddenly heard a loud sound coming from downstairs. At this time of the night normally no one was awake to he was more than surprised.

"What was that?" He whispered to himself and left the room quietly to see where the sound came from. He looked down from the stairs and saw his Mother and his father in front of their bedroom. His mother was arranging a mattress to sleep on and cleaned a wound on her forearm. Omkara was shocked since the wound looked like she was beaten up by something. Suddenly while stepping closer, he heard the soft voice of his Father. He heard words he would never forget, not even in the years to come. They would haunt him forever.

"Jhanvi didn't I tell you to keep Gauri away from my Son? These Photographs should have ended their relationship but what happened instead? My Son, My blood ran after a bloody Girl like an obedient puppy! Is that what an Oberoi does? Beg for a woman? No, never. "Tej clinched his fists went closer to his wife. Immediately Jhanvi started trembling and she raised her hands; pleading him to stop his torture. She was tired and had enough after he had hit her with his belt a few hours ago. Her wounds were still fresh and she couldn't take more.

"Sahib...Please. I tried my best, Let them be together. Don't you see how happy they are with each other? Do you want to see your son as unhappy as he was before when Riddhima left him because of you? I will control her better will make her the bahu she should be but please my Son should be happy, please. He deserves to be loved and to be Happy and I promise I will keep her in control..." A tight Slap stopped his mother from talking further and Omkara from breathing. His Father was a cruel Monster without a heart, despite her plea of keeping him, Omkara happy, he had slapped her. Om felt disgusted by the way his father slapped his mother. How could he do that?How could a man slap the woman he loved because she tried to keep him happy? How could he try to separate me and Gauri my sending me the picture? Why did he do that? Why does he want to see me unhappy? Omkara thought angrily. He had so many questions but no answer to them. His answers would come, in the most fatal way. Something he could have never seen coming at that time.

"Your words have no worth dearest." He smiled at his wife and caressed her face and Jhanvi felt sick. His touch made her want to vomit, it had long lost it's beautifulness.

,, You promised the same when he was dating that Bitch Riddhima. I am happy shat she left him and married someone else before she died. Her love and now Gauri's Loved are the cause for my Son turning into an Idiot who listens to his heard and not his Mind. If I have to keep him unhappy to let him succeed and be like me than so be it: I will snatch away his Happiness without even thinking twice. I mean he wants Equality for both the genders? Has he gone crazy? MEN ARE SUPERIOR TO WOMAN. Women are nothing without their husbands. They have to obey and bear heirs, woman are good for nothing but warming the bed and raising sons." He laughed and turned around to sit down on his bed. He prayed a second and then lay down to sleep. His Mother stood up, wiped away her tears and turned off the Lights.

"You are right Sahib. A woman is nothing without her Husband.She has to be an obedient wife to be happy. I am sorry for disappointing you..." her voice trailed off and Omkara heard her crying into her pillow.

Slowly and visibly shocked he went back to his room. He closed the door and started to cry. The tears fell down uncontrollably and he was indeed shattered. That was the reason why he was afraid that Gauri had been right:She had known he would be devastated the minute he would see how evil his father was. She had been right all the time...She tried telling me but I didn't listen I even insulted her and almost lost her, Omkara thought bitterly and slapped himself. How was I better than my Father? By my actions I proved I am his son...

"Om...?" Gauri opened her eyes just to find her husband leaning against the door; crying vigorously. She ran to him and hugged him somehow. Being 6 Month Pregnant wasn't a help.

Instantly she knew he was broken, his trust and his Heart. The truth finally had been unfolded. He was shattered, exactly like she had predicted.

"Gauri I am so sorry. You were right. I am so sorry for not believing you. He slapped her? How can someone slap his own wife? How low can a Man fall? He even tried separating us, he had sent me these pictures because he doesn't want me to be happy. I heard him say it. He punished my mother for letting me being happy...He said he wanted me unhappy so I could be successful in business...How can he be called a father?"O mkara stood up and ran his finger through his hair, emotionally he was drenched out. The man he had loved, who he had treated like God turned out to be a Monster, someone not even worth being called a human being. The man that pretended to care for his Happiness was the one who tried to snatch it away.

"He wants to see me unhappy so he can keep me in control. I mean how sick is that Gauri? How can he think that way and still claim to love me, to care for me? He never did. He was the one who separated me from Swati, who tried separating me from you." Om said with the bitterness visible in his voice. In his wildest dreams had he never thought his father was such an evil and cruel monster but he was proved wrong.

Om felt lost and broken. His trust has been shattered and only God knew how he had stopped himself from going to his Father and beat the crap out of him for abusing his wife and for trying to separate him and Gauri.

"I know Om. He is a cruel and evil man but he loves you. Maybe He does the wrong things to show you that. We have to make him understand that Women are equal to men. We need to make him realize that he could lose his family if he doesn't change. Maybe if we try our best we can change him? The most important thing is that you finally saw the truth and know that your Mother loves you deeply. She always longed for your love Baby. We can work against him, make everyone see the truth and Maji will get back the Love of her children." She kissed his tears away.Om simply held her in his arms. Years of hatred towards his mother vanished away in thin air when he had seen her pleading his father to keep him Happy.

"I need to ask for her forgiveness..." Omkara whispered and Gauri smiled at him with tears in her eyes. She had known he would come to the conclusion to ask for Forgiveness. And she was glad. Gauri had seen the love and longing in Jhanvi's eyes and once they would be reunited both would be happier.

"She already forgave you." Gauri said but Om didn't look convinced. He cupped her face into his hands; looked at her like a lost child.

"How do you know?" He asked again; the pain in his eyes almost killing her. She took his hands and placed them on her abdomen.

"Because I am a mother. And she is one as well. A mother always forgives her children. Her heart is not able to be angry with them, to see them unhappy. Your mother forgave you the minute you hurt her. She would rather die than seeing her children suffer. I can understand that feeling now being pregnant myself. A mother's Love is unconditional; she loves us despite our flaws and mistakes. If we are hurt she is the first one to cry, If we are happy she is the first one to hug as and to pray to always keep us happy,, If we are sad and cry she is the first one to wipe away our tears. It is in her nature." Gauri led Omkara to their Bed and asked him to lie down for a while, then she turned around to leave but he caught her hand and asked where she was going. He didn't want her to leave, he wasn't ready to face his feelings alone. She was his strength and he needed her support.

"Don't go...Please...His voice was breaking off and Gauri tried hard to hold back her tears. Her heart broke seeing all the pain in his eyes. She vowed to herself that she would never let him feel that way again.

"I will just get us some hot Tea so our nerves will calm down Baby. Don't worry I won't leave you- never ever. Even dead can tear us apart." She kissed him and went to the kitchen to make the tea. Suddenly she heard footsteps behind her.

"So you returned?"

Gauri turned around. Tej came closer and Gauri shirked away in fear. Her hands holding her abdomen as If to keep the live inside her womb save
