Friends come and go, like the waves of the ocean, but the true ones stay like an octopus on your face....and yes omkara and gauri were like octopus on each others face...

omkara looked at her laughing. He watched from a distance. His eyes shining with love and adoration for her.yes...for his gauri...but gauri was unaware of this.

He told her everything. From the smallest detail to the largest fact.

omkara was an oberoi...and gauri from sharma family...both had a wonderfull childhood together...Their friendship started all with a fight gauris favorite pencil...omkara loved snaching away all her favorite stuff..it was one of his favorite hobbie too...but this wasnt to hurt her..but to get a angry glare from her which he adore...She had walked into his life the moment she had walked through his door. She had walked into his heart the moment she had looked into his eyes.

The oberoi industry was well known in mumbai for their growth in business...and Sharma family wasnt much smaller in this...Her family had arrived at his house. His mum and hers were best friends.His father and hers was busy talking about their  business deal...and they had shared same school too....So naturally they were friends.

Her mum had come in upset shaken. Yet she was smiling taking everything in silent. She always was a analyser. He mused to himself.

He had watched her smile and take everything in. He had watched her laughing as if nothing was wrong and forever staying strong for her and her family.

She never cried never let any tears drop from her eyes.

She was silent at first but became best friends with his sister. His enemy. Well you know the usual sibling rivalry.

Slowly slowly she became more comfortable around everyone and starting to talk. Laughing all the time and smiling yet he could tell she was broken.

His and her family came closer and closer.

Once they began a conversation they talked like there was no tomorrow. She intrigued him. She was perfect the moment he saw her he knew she had him. She was beautiful yet hadn't realised it.

He teased her and fought with her.The only think which seemed interesting to gauri was basketball...as they were in same college...she helped him with his art and he helped her in acheiving her biggest dream of getting into the basket ball team...and finally she did it...he wanted to get more close to her...he wanted her to stay close to him..always...so he too joined the basket ball team...she was the leader of their girls team with omkara as leader for boys team... She was tough and wouldn't let no one even touch her or her sisters or anyone she cared about....and omkara too cared for both her and her sister aami.Aami got all brotherly care from omkara...

Her family and his became more and more closer. Her dad took him under his wing and looked after him. Toughened him up. Played around with him.

He would do anything just to have her stay with him, saying anything to make her stop. Get any reaction from her.

He helped her whenever she needed it, with and without her saying it. It was a unspoken agreement.

He stared at her without her knowing.Both gauri and omkara had the habit of fighting with each other as they did in past...They even stayed without talking to each other for a month...Every time they argued they became closer. He always held a grin for a week after their bantering.

"You guys soo cute..." That's what everyone would say with a sigh.

"What.??" They both would reply.

She was innocent and cute.
She was the good little girl and she was perfect. He knew he couldn't have her and it hurt like hell.

He craved her laugh her smile her eyes.

One look and the world would become right.

but these feelings were leaving him more and more confused.

He didn't know what she was doing to him forever on his mind.

"Hello". Was how he started a conversation on line.

How on earth was she so blind?

He had fallen for her and she didn't even know.

Hey. She replied. How are you?

Oh I'm fine. He lied.

They shared secrets and he realised how broken up she was inside.She told him everything and he told her.she told her how she lost her best friend while saving gauris life...and omkara knew that it was the untold reason behind her silence.... She cried he held her.

Om....im in love...

It hurt whenever he saw her with another guy. She never can be mine. He thought.

He watched her all the time. Love and adoration shining from his eyes.

When everyone told her that om have special care nd love for her... She said. Don't lie.

She didn't believe in herself. He made her shine above everyone else. Held her hand and never let her fall.

And now here they are today...after a long year..by this time both om and gauri compleated there graduation...

which reflected there love fr each other and not lust and desire...
That kiss which said everything they'd ever need to say .After that it was settled,They were meant to be and he would never let her go or hurt her.

Future

He put down his pen. Woah. He rubbed his eyes. That was a LONG story of his and her life. He smiled to himself leaned back in his chair and let the flashbacks come into his mind. An unconscious smile has spread across his face. Just by remembering her eyes.

"You coming sweetie?"She called coming from behind him and putting her hand over his eyes. His smile got bigger.

"Definitely."He turned to look at her.

"What you been doing?"She asked."Oh gosh...i didnt know that my artist husband turned to a writer...om...u started witing stories..??oh..please...now dont make me sleep by making me read ur stories....  What have we talked about?You mister need to get rest and sleep. Now bed time."

He gave out a laugh and rolled his eyes good naturedly. He pulled her down so she was on his lap.

She let out a squeal.

"What do you think you're playing at?"She asked glaring playfully.

"This."He simply replied giving her a passionate kiss. She let out a moan.

He rubbed her stomach."Baby giving you any trouble?"

"Eh Nothing i can take."

"You sure?"He asks.

"Yh. Baby takes after his father..i think he loves fighting with me...already started kicking me...

"Hey!"He replied with a grin.

"Now bed time."She scolded as she pulled him up.

"Woah can't wait."He followed her smirking.

"Ewww!Must you!"She replied shaking her head and grinning.

"Once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale....
And that's their love story....RI&KARA'S STORY!!!YES!!!RIKARAS ....
