Gauri nervously walks towards the reception. "I want to meet Dr. Oberoi."

"Do you have an appointment, Ma'm?"

"No."

"Please fill this and do you have any medical card?" the receptionist asks passing her the form to fill.

"I am not here for consultation. It is personal." Gauri tells her.

"What's your name, madam?"

"Gauri Kumari Sharma."

"Please wait a second, Madam." The receptionist says and takes the phone and dials a number. "Hello Doctor... One Ms. Sharma is here to see you. She said it is personal... Okay Doctor." Receptionist hangs up the phone and turns to Gauri. "He is busy with the patients. He asked you to wait."

Gauri nods and sits on the couch nervously. He asked her to wait. She had expected him to come running out to see her. What was she expecting? What was she doing here? She should just leave and deal with this herself but then she will never be able to forgive herself if he was left unaware. Gauri sighs as she closed her eyes.

Three hours later, Gauri was still waiting and there was no sign of him. The receptionist had called him again and he had again asked her to wait. Today was a busy day it seems.

Gauri was feeling hungry; she hadn't had anything since morning. She wondered whether she should go to a restaurant and eat but what if he leaves when she is away. Gauri walks to the vending machine and puts in a coin to get a bottle of water.

"Gauri?" Omkara calls her name surprised.

Gauri turns to him and was shocked to see his surprised look. Didn't he know she had been waiting for him for three hours now?

"What are you doing here? You alright?" Omkara asks her. "Oh wait a minute." Omkara walks towards the reception, "Someone was waiting for me, right? Did they leave or are they still here?"

"It was me." Gauri tells him.

"You?" Omkara turns to her surprised. "Oh I didn't know it was you. They told me Ms. Sharma and I didn't know your surname. If I knew it was you I wouldn't have made you wait. Sorry about that. Today was really hectic."

Gauri looks at him confused, God he talked too much. I hope our kid is not so talkative.

"Come with me." Omkara says as he led her towards his room.

"You said you would call." Omkara tells her as he closed the door.

"I just got back from home today." Gauri tells him.

"And you came to see me?" Omkara asks smiling as he pulled up a chair for her and sits on the one next to that instead of the doctor's chair. He takes her hand in his, "I have been thinking about you. I did mean what I told you that day."

"That you are falling in love with me?" Gauri asks him.

"Yes."

"And you didn't know my surname."

"What is in a name?" Omkara asks her.

"Are you like this with every girl you meet?"

"No... you are special... I fell in love with you the moment I saw you." Omkara tells her. "Don't you feel like that, Gauri?"

"We don't know each other, Om."

"We'll get to know each other."

Gauri remains silent as she got lost in thoughts. What did she know about him? Nothing. Other than where he worked and that he is a Doctor. She had met him at a friend's party, talked to him and found some kind of attraction towards him and was ecstatic when she realized it was mutual and then throwing caution in the wind she had slept with him. Now she was pregnant with his baby.

"Didn't you think about me?" Omkara asks her.

"You never tried to find me." Gauri accuses him.

"You said you need time and you would call me." Omkara reminds her.

"Yes." Gauri mumbles.

"If you aren't here to tell me that you want to be with me then why are you here?" Omkara asks her confused.

"I am pregnant." Gauri tells him.

Omkara looks at her in shock.

"It's yours."

"You wouldn't be here if it isn't mine."

"I want to have this baby and I just wanted you to know." Gauri tells him, "I don't expect anything from you. I just wanted you to know." Gauri gets up and starts to leave when Omkara stops her.

"What will you prefer then?"

"Prefer?" Gauri asks confused.

"Court marriage or a temple wedding?"

"What?" Gauri asks him shocked.

"Court marriage will take a month... temple we just need witness." Omkara explains.

"I won't marry you."

"Why the hell are you being so stubborn? I know you love me. I don't know why you are so scared about it. If you didn't love me then we wouldn't have made love."

"We had sex."

"God! Gauri!" Omkara says exasperated.

"I like you but I don't know if I love you."

"It doesn't matter. You are pregnant with my child. We will get married. You can get to know me and fall in love with me."

"What if I never fall in love with you?"

"Oh please! Give me some credit! You will!"

Gauri looks at him furiously."Let's just get married and take one day at a time. Okay?"

"I am hungry." Gauri declares as they sat in his car after their wedding.

"What are you in the mood for?" Omkara asks her smiling.

"Chinese."

Omkara watches in shock as Gauri hogged.

"What?" Gauri asks as she stuffed noodles into her mouth.

"Nothing." Omkara replies.

"I am hungry! Pregnancy can make you hungry!" Gauri says defensively.

"I am a doctor." Omkara reminds her.

"You are a neurologist not a gynecologist."

"Still I know how human body functions."

Gauri looks away flushed.

"Want anything more?" Omkara asks her smiling.

Gauri shakes her head in no.

Omkara was about to ask for the bill when "I want ice-cream."

Gauri walks with Omkara around his two bedroom apartment getting acquainted with the place. Finally he takes her to his bedroom.

"This is our bedroom." Omkara tells her.

Gauri nods her head.

"Why don't you freshen up?" Omkara asks her.

"Do you have anything I can wear?" Gauri asks him.

Omkara walks to his cupboard and goes through his clothes. "Will this do?" he asks taking a tshirt out.

Gauri nods and takes it from him.

"Tomorrow morning, we can go to your hostel and get your things."

"Okay." Gauri replies.

Few minutes later, Gauri comes out in his t-shirt which reached a little below her thighs. Gauri puts her clothes in the washing machine. She hears the main door opening and pokes her head out to see who it was.

"Hey!" Omkara says smiling. "I went out to get grocery."

Gauri smiles at him. how couldn't she? He was being so sweet to her and her apprehension regarding her feelings towards him shouldn't be a reason to hurt him.

Seeing her smile at him, he smiles at her even more, "That is a change."

"Don't make me question it." Gauri tells him with a grin.

Omkara chuckles, "I'll take a shower and come. Can you keep these in the fridge?"

"Yeah sure. Just waiting for my clothes to get washed. I'll just put it out for drying so I'll have something to wear tomorrow."

"Okay."

Gauri walks into the room just as Omkara comes out of the bathroom. Omkara was just in his boxers and Gauri in his tshirt. Gauri looks at the almost naked Omkara, her husband and that one night of bliss spent with him comes flashing back to her. Seeing Gauri so scantily dressed Omkara remembers the night spent with her. He walks towards her and stops in front of her.

"Gauri..."

Gauri looks up at him.

"I love you."

Gauri closes her eyes at his declaration.

"I know even you feel something for me. I have seen it in you, Gauri. I don't know why you are fighting it."

When she remains silent he continues, "All this while wasn't there a single moment that you thought about me? Or missed me?"

Gauri was getting disturbed with the way he talked, she did miss him, she did think about him. Hell he was all she thought about. She was upset that he never tried to reach her even though she remembered it was she who had explicitly asked him to not find her that she would get in touch with him. but she didn't believe love and happily ever after. Her family had already seen that how men fool women in the name of love. But he was still here, he hadn't run when she told him about the baby. If anything he seemed to be happy about it, he didn't have to say it or show it for her to see his joy in it. She feels his hand on her stomach and she looks at him.

"It's still a shock and little difficult to digest that our baby is here." Omkara says smiling at her in wonder.

She was right, he was happy. She smiles at him.

Omkara leans down and kisses her on her cheek. Feeling the closeness and his scent every though left Gauri as her hormone went wild.

"Gauri... did doctor ask you to refrain from love making?"

Gauri shakes her head in no as a blush crept up her cheek.

"Can we..."

Gauri cuts him off, "Hasn't anyone told you that you talk too much?"

Omkara looks at her in shock then chuckling he says, "Everyone says that but I never felt as if I talk too much. Whatever is in my heart I say it out loud maybe that is why people feel..."

"Just shut up and kiss me, Om."

Gone was the patient and soft man and in his place was the passionate and very demanding Omkara Singh Oberoi as he kissed Gauri hard.

"God! I missed you so much Gauri." Omkara urgently says as he kissed her all over her face.

Gauri closes her eyes happily as she devoured his frantic touch and kiss. As she got lost in the whirlpool of passion her guard breaks down and she lets her instincts guide her. Gauri pulls him up and kisses him soundly on his lips as she rolled over him straddling him. She drags her lips down kissing him while he enjoyed the sweet sensations she was causing him.

Having enough of the sweet torment he rolls her over and enters her in a swift motion and she gasps at the invasion. Once she got adjusted to him, she starts rocking against him as they tried to bring each other to fulfillment.

"Is this safe for the baby?" Gauri asks him a while later worried about the baby.

"Yes." Omkara replies smiling as he leaned up to look at her. "The doctor said you can right?"

Gauri nods her head shyly. Seeing her blush Omkara kisses her soundly and then settling himself next to her he gently keeps his hand over her stomach. Gauri keeps her hand over his smiling.

"When will we know the sex of the baby?" Gauri asks him.

"It's against law." Omkara tells her.

"I know." Gauri sighs. "I just wish I knew. So I can start preparations accordingly."

"Preparations?"

"Yes... clothes... bedroom... toys."

"There is time for that." Omkara tells her chuckling.

"Yes... but everything should be ready for our baby." Gauri says excitedly. "We can convert the other bedroom to a baby's room right?"

"Yes. But isn't there something we should do before that?"

"What?" Gauri asks him curiously.

"Informing our families."

"They are going to kill us." Gauri says sobering up looking away.

"No one is going to hurt you." Omkara tells her.

"You wish!"

"Even my family is no less." Omkara tells her grinning.

"Oh God! What are we going to do?"

"Should we go to Motihari and inform them face to face or should we do it over the phone?" Omkara asks her.

"Isn't it strange that we are from the same place but we never met each other before that party?"

"I was away from home most of my life. Boardings, hostels and now work." Omkara tells her.

"Hmmm... maybe our families know each other."

"What's your family name?" Omkara asks her curiously then suddenly he looks at her in shock, "You said your surname is Sharma right? What is your father's name?"

"Shakti Sharma."

"WHAT?" Omkara asks in shock as he sits up.

"What happened?" Gauri asks curiously seeing him going pale and he quickly gets up from the bed and starts wearing his clothes. "What happened, Om?"

"Gauri... I need a minute. I just need to think." Omkara tells her and walks out.

"Think about what?"

"Family!" Omkara tells her and quickly leaves while Gauri watched at the door in shock through which he had just exited.

Gauri takes her tshirt from the floor and wears it wondering what had happened to him. He had panicked hearing her father's name but why? How did he know her father? She had never heard of him from her father. His surname is Oberoi and she knew only one Oberois. Gauri gasps loudly realizing why he had panicked. She hurries out of the room to find him sitting on the couch with his hands on his head.

"Are you related to Vishal Oberoi?" Gauri asks him.

"He was my father's brother." Omkara replies still not looking up at her.

Gauri gasps out loudly realizing that she had slept with her family's enemy, then got pregnant with his child, then married him and slept with him again, in that order.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Gauri asks him furiously.

"I didn't know." Omkara replies looking up at her.

"Your uncle cheated my aunt!" Gauri furiously tells him.

"I know the history. Your Dad then killed my uncle for revenge!"

"Because his sister committed suicide!" Gauri accuses him.

"Trust me I have watched QSQT to get the story right!" Omkara scoffs at her.

"What?"

"The backstory on family rivalry was inspired from us!"

"Huh?"

"Your father was released from jail right?" Omkara asks her curiously.

"The day after I slept with you! That is why I had to go home!"

"Ah okay... Anyway, I think this is not the time to inform our family about our wedding." Omkara tells her.

"We are not telling anyone anything. I want a divorce and I am having an abortion!"

"HAVE YOU GONE FREAKING CRAZY?" Omkara furiously asks her as he marched towards her and gripped her arms.

"You would be the crazy one if you think I'll have your baby, a man who belongs to that family that destroyed mine. Our families are still trying to kill each other. Your uncle cheated my aunt. Got her pregnant and left her. all my life I have watched my dadi cry over her daughter and her son because of your family. My mother lived her life like a widow because Papa was in jail. You have a cheater's blood running through your vein!" Gauri tells him furiously. Then she furiously shrugs him away, "And don't touch me ever again. You have no right to touch me."

"I am your husband."

"Not anymore. We are getting a divorce."

"We are not!"

"We are!"

"SHUT UP! I don't give a damn who ruined whose family. All I know and all I care is that you are my wife and I love you."

"I HATE YOU! And I don't want your dirty bloodline to grow through me."

"That dirty bloodline you are talking about is our baby! A baby a few minutes ago you wanted to give the whole world to!"

"I don't want this baby."

"I want this baby. It is my baby and I want the baby. I will not let anyone harm my baby. I am not going to let my family or your family harm you or our baby, so you think I would let you stand against our baby?"

"I don't want your baby." Gauri tells him again.

"You are having my baby, Gauri. You have no choice."

"I'll have an abortion."

"You would need the father's signature for that." Omkara tells her.

Gauri wonders whether she can go to a shady clinic or somewhere to get the baby killed.

"Don't force me to do things I don't want to." Omkara tells her.

"What will you do? What can you possibly do?" Gauri challenges him.

"I can take you to court and get legal support. Which would make it a news and both our families will find out about it."

Gauri looks at him in shock, "Showed your true colors, didn't you?"

"Nothing is more important to me than my family."

"Then go to your family! They would be only be too happy to be rid off this baby."

"You and our baby is my family." Omkara calmly tells her.

"I am not your family!"

"Mrs. Gauri Omkara Singh Oberoi!"

"I want divorce."

"Give me my baby first." Omkara tells her.

"What?"

"Stay here and have my baby."

"Then you'll give me a divorce?" Gauri asks him.

"I'll do what you want to do after you give birth."

Gauri chuckles humorlessly, "You think that I will change my mind after I have this baby... don't you? You think I will start to love this baby."

"I know you more than you think I do."

"You don't. If you did then you would realize that for me this baby is already dead!"

"I am tired. Even you. You need rest. Go sleep." Omkara tells her tired.

Gauri furiously walks towards the spare bedroom and slams the door shut.

Omkara sighs as he sits down thinking how everything changed with one revelation. How had he managed to find that girl from the family that his family hates and fall in love with her? and now they were going to have a baby that she claims to no longer want. He knew she was talking in anger, she loved their baby just as much as him or maybe more. She could feel their baby and he couldn't, so she definitely loved their baby more just her anger was clouding her mind. The strangest thing was he could understand Gauri's anger and sudden hatred. He had always been away from his family, so the enmity hadn't really affected him except for hearing about it every now and then at every family gatherings but unlike him, Gauri was not so lucky. She was raised in the middle of the enmity and the after effects of it. All she needed was sometime and she will understand that they belonged together.

Gauri furiously wipes her tears as she thought of her family. Her dadi had raised her telling her never to love and never to trust men. They will take whatever they wanted from us and leaves us. She was starting to believe Om was different but he turned out to belong to that family which had taught her this lesson, and he also wanted something from her, the baby and her. Not even considering her feelings regarding the matter. Gauri closes her eyes in pain, she was so looking forward to this baby and now. Gauri was about to wipe her tears when she realized that she was caressing her stomach. She didn't want to care for this baby and she will not care for this baby. It is his baby. Not hers!

In morning Gauri wakes up hungry.

"God!" Gauri mutters as she rubbed her stomach and gets out of the bed.

Gauri opens the door and comes out of the room to find Omkara sitting by the couch smiling at her. Her first reaction was to smile back at him then she remembered what had happened the night before and glares at him.

"Food is ready." Omkara says pointing at the dining table.

"I don't want."

"My baby would be hungry. Don't do this to our baby. It is no fault of the baby." Omkara calmly tells her.

Gauri looks away realizing that she had slept with Om not realizing who he was and they both were stupid to not use protection, then how was the baby at fault? But how can she go against her family and accept this baby?

"Eat." Omkara tells her gently as he pulled the chair for her. Sighing Gauri sits down and starts eating the toast.

"Do you have cheese?"

"Are you craving cheese?"

"No. I prefer cheese to butter."

"Cheese can cause miscarriage. So it is better you don't eat it."

Gauri sighs then takes the tea and says, "What is this?"

"Tea."

"It stinks." Gauri says making puking faces as she pushed it away from her. Omkara quickly takes it away from her. "Do you have juice?"

"What juice you want?"

"Orange."

"DANDHI!" Omkara shouts.

Gauri looks up in shock seeing a man come out, "Who is he?"

"Dandhi... cook... and this is my wife, Gauri... she wants orange juice." Omkara tells Dandhi. Nodding Dandhi quickly leaves.

"Whatever you want to eat, just tell him." Omkara instructs her.

"Why the hell didn't you tell me he is here?" Gauri asks him in a furious whisper.

"Is there a problem?" Omkara asks consfued.

"I am naked!" Gauri furiously says as she pulled her t-shirt down to cover her exposed leg.

"You were naked last night. Not now." Omkara teases her.

"Shut up!" Gauri says turning pink and then furious realizing she was getting turned on remembering their night together.

Omkara gets up and walks to the kitchen. Few minutes later, he comes back with orange juice. "You have your juice. He won't come here till we call him. He is ironing your clothes. You can wear that." Omkara tells her.

Gauri was getting dressed when Omkara knocks on the door.

"What?" Gauri asks him.

He opens the door and walks in. "I wanted to talk to you."

"What is there to talk? I'll have your baby. You can keep the baby and you will give me divorce and I'll go my way and you go your way."

"During the pregnancy, all your thoughts and emotions are going to have a direct effect on our baby. So I know it is difficult but please try to be happy always."

Gauri looks away not knowing how to reply to that stupid request.

"Please Gauri... our baby is very important. Try not to hurt the baby."

Gauri nods in reply.

"You get ready. I'll take you to your hostel to get your things."

Omkara had taken a couple of days off as he took care of Gauri. Gauri could see his care but her loyalty towards her family was stopping her from accepting Om or their baby. Gauri was getting ready to rejoin her college the next day after her week long break.

"Gauri, you and the baby are very healthy, but don't over exert yourself." Omkara tells her as he sat next to her.

"I know!"

Omkara chuckles seeing her irritation and takes the magazine to read.

"I would have thought you would be reading baby books now." Gauri tells him disinterestedly.

"I am a doctor, Gauri."

Gauri rolls her eyes.

Omkara chuckles seeing her, she wanted to care for the baby but couldn't and was relying solely on him to do that for their baby.

"DAMNIT!" Gauri furiously shouts as she hurried to the bathroom.

Omkara softly starts laughing after she had closed the bathroom door. Lack of bladder control was pissing her off.

"STOP LAUGHING!" Gauri screams from inside the bathroom and he bursts out laughing.

Gauri furiously opens the bathroom door and comes to him glaring. "This is all your fault!"

"With your consent!" Omkara winks at her chuckling.

"I hate you!" Gauri says furiously.

"And I love you!" Omkara replies.

Gauri looks at him shocked for a second then a blush starts creeping in as what he said registers. Seeing her blush he starts grinning widely. "BLOODY HORMONES!!" Gauri furiously screams and marches off to her bedroom.

Gauri was going to college and Omkara to the hospital and everything was going though not smoothly but without any hitch. Dandhi comes in the morning and prepares whatever Gauri wants for breakfast and lunch. She was not allowed have food from outside, Omkara was very strict about that. Then they have breakfast, Omkara drops her off to college and in the evening he picks her up and drops her home or Dandhi does according to Omkara's shift. Then evening Dandhi would leave after preparing dinner of her choice. Then they would be alone after that. Omkara would hang around her at times he would talk, at times he would remain silent and surprisingly doing both he manages to rile her up. She gets irritated if he talked and she got irritated if he didn't talk. He took everything in his stride with a chuckle. Still everything was going fine till the worst thing happened. Gauri started getting horny.

Gauri tried her best to ignore it but every time her handsome-hot-awesome in bed husband comes in front of her there was only one thought in her mine Rape! Finally not able to control herself, she decided to seduce him but she had to make it look as if he was the one who wanted it and was begging for it, and she just gave in because well she was kind hearted.

At night Gauri wore the sexiest night dress and applied light make up and blow dried her hair and left it lose. She looked at herself in the mirror and smiles approvingly. He would be begging at my feet. Now time for sex!

Gauri walks out of her room in attitude to find the living room empty. Where the hell is he? Usually he would be lying flat on the couch dreaming about me. She starts walking up and down making loud noises to get his attention but he neither came out nor called out for her. She couldn't just walk into his room then he would know. Stupid moron! Good for nothing! Never does anything right.

Finally having no other option, Gauri drops a bottle and screams out loud.

"GAURI?" Omkara comes out running from his bedroom.

Finally! Now sex time!

"The bottle fell out of my hand." Gauri says as she very sexily bends down and took the bottle from the floor in slow motion. Then she looks at her husband who was looking at her with wide eyes. Success! Now begging!

"Did I wake you?" Gauri asks in a s**tty whisper with a sexy smile as she kept the bottle on the table.

"You are... you are looking... damn hot, biwi!"

Gauri chuckles as she flips her hair and then she softly bites her lower lip and Omkara groans.

"I got scared when the bottle fell. Now I am fine. You sleep." Gauri says as she exhaled loudly keeping her hand on her chest. "I am also going to bed." She says as she leaned back on the table playing with the noodle strap of her night dress, slipping it off her shoulders and then playing with it.

Omkara's shock turns to a smile and the he starts smiling ear to ear.

Why the hell is he gloating instead of begging?

"Your hormones are acting weird... huh?" Omkara asks her grinning.

Gauri looks at him in shock dropping her seductress act.

"All you had to do was ask, Gauri." Omkara tells her grinning.

"I don't want it!" Gauri says looking away.

Omkara slowly starts unbuttoning his shirt, flipping open one button at a time as he walked towards her.

"What are you doing?" Gauri asks eyes going wild as the hormones started kicking in like never before.

"Nothing." Omkara shrugs grinning as he walks towards her. "You remember our wedding night, Gauri?"

Gauri loses her control and she runs to him. "Your kid is making me horny! It is your fault and you should take care of it!"

"I am here for all your needs." Omkara says winking sexily.

"Damn it!" Gauri says as she slammed her mouth on his lips kissing him senseless. "Nothing changes! You are just a sex toy for me!"

"Oh! Shut up! I am a man! I get to have sex and don't care whether you call it love making or sex!" Omkara tells her as he slipped her night dress off. Then seeing her naked he groans, "God woman! I love you."

In reply Gauri kisses him passionately.

"Go to your room!" Gauri tells Omkara as she sat up satiated now.

"God, woman! You had your way with me two times! I need energy to get up!"

Gauri blushes hearing him.

"Our child is going to be one hell of a sex maniac!" Omkara chuckles.

"Shut up!" Gauri turns pink blushing.

Sighing Omkara gets up from the bed, "Now that you have taken care of my needs, I'll go to my room."

Gauri's mouth drops open hearing him and she sat there like that even after he left.

Omkara was sleeping when she shook him awake. "Gauri? What happened? What time is it?" Omkara asks confused as he sat up.

"Strip! I want to have sex!" Gauri orders him.

Gauri was sitting in Omkara's hospital room sipping water as they waited to meet the gynecologist.

"Let me know when your bladder is full." Omkara tells her.

"Why does it have to be full?" Gauri asks irritated.

"When your bladder is full your uterus..."

"God! I know! I was just cribbing." Gauri says irritated as she continued to gulp down the water.

Omkara chuckles every time she came for doctor's checkup she gets worked up as if she expected to hear that something was not right with the baby. He sighs; Gauri was still scared to show that she cared for their baby and him. He wondered whether he had to wait till she gives birth for her to realize just how much she loves their baby.

"I think it is full." Gauri tells him feeling her slightly swollen belly. She had started showing.

Nodding Omkara calls up the receptionist.

"Dapddap.. Dapddap... Dapddap..."

"That is your baby." The doctor says pointing at the baby.

"Which?" Gauri asks confused.

"This." Omkara says pointing out the baby.

"That is nothing." Gauri says disappointed.

Omkara chuckles hearing her. "4-5 months more for the baby to completely develop, Gauri."

Gauri nods as she gently holds Omkara's hand squeezing it as she looked at their baby. Her heart filling with love for her baby. It hadn't happened before. They have seen the baby before also but today was the first time they were hearing it's heart beats. According to the doctor the position of the baby had earlier prevented them from hearing the heart beats and it had caused her a great deal of worry and as if sensing her worry Om had reassured her it was normal but still she was worried. Now hearing her baby's heart beat she just couldn't control the love she felt for her baby. She had felt it the first time she had seen the fetus, it was no longer a fetus or unwanted thing or a mistake. It was her baby, the baby she made with the best man she had known in her life. Suddenly, seeing her baby in new light, she started seeing the man who had given her baby in new light. He was a gem of a person. Standing by her throughout, taking care of her and their baby and loving her without a question, giving in to all her tantrums with a smile. Why didn't she ever fall in love with him? Gauri wonders as she looked at him and he was staring at the screen looking at their baby then he turned to look at her with a hint of tears in his eyes and he smiles at her as he leaned down gently kiss her forehead and she realized she had asked herself the wrong question. The right question was why didn't she ever realize that she had fallen in love with her husband?

Gauri has her medicine and gives the glass back to Omkara.

"You seemed lost in thoughts." Omkara tells her concerned.

Gauri shakes her head at him.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"Tomorrow." Gauri tells him.

"Everything alright, love?" Omkara asks her sitting next to her cupping her face.

"I did something my family is never going to forgive me for." Gauri tells him as tears filled her eyes.

"Baby?"

Gauri shakes her head in no.

"Marriage?"

"No."

"Then?"

"We'll talk about this tomorrow?" Gauri asks him.

"Okay... you sleep now. Don't worry about anything. I'm here." Omkara tells her smiling. Gauri hugs him tight feeling his love and her love.

Omkara gently eases her on the bed and covers her with the blanket. He leaves the bedside lamp on as she is scared of the dark and starts to walk out. He was at the door wondering whether he should do it. It was against law but if it made her happy and eased her mind then?

Omkara turns to her and smiles, "It's a boy."

Gauri looks at him in shock as Omkara watched on, her face breaks out into a big smile as happy tears stung her eyes. She gently keeps her hand over stomach where their son was growing.

"Good night, love."

"Good night." Gauri says smiling.

Next day, Gauri walks towards Omkara's room and opening the door she walks in to find his getting ready for office.

"Was just about to come to your room. How are you feeling today?" Omkara asks her smiling.

"I wanted to talk to you."

"Yes, tell me."

"Om..." Gauri starts and stops hearing his mobile.

"Gauri, it's Dad." Omkara tells her as he answered the phone.

Whenever either of their family called the other remained silent not to give away their presence to their family. So she remained silent and still as he talked on the phone.

"Strange..." Omkara says as he hung up the phone. "He called to check whether I was home or in hospital."

"Why?"

"I hope he is not planning a surprise visit." Omkara says worried. "So tell me."

Gauri nervously looks at him wondering how to tell him what she was feeling after treating him like this for all these months.

Omkara walks towards her and gently guides her to the bed and kneels down in front of her. "Tell me, Gauri. what is worrying you?"

"I don't want a divorce." Gauri tells him as tears filled her eyes, "I want to be with you all my life. I love you."

Omkara looks at her in shock as what she said registered. He knew one day she would start to love him and he just knew it but nothing had prepared him for it.

"I love our baby too. I don't want anything to happen to our baby." Gauri says crying, "I don't want anything to happen to our baby. Please forgive me, Om."

Omkara hugs her and whispers hoarsely, "I love you, Gauri. And I know you never meant any of what you said against our baby."

"Why do you love me? What did I do to deserve you?" Gauri asks him sadly.

"Because I know, Gauri underneath all this bluster and facade is the real you, who is a nice soul."

"You are mad. Since the moment you saw me you have been saying this."

"Well I am very smart and I can read people." Omkara replies chuckling.

"You are just dumb but I love you." Gauri says hugging him happily.

Gauri opens the door hearing the doorbell as Omkara was on the phone, he was taking the day off as they decided to spend the day together. Gauri's eyes widen seeing the people at the door.

"Who are you? Where is Om?" Tej asks her frowning.

Tej Oberoi.

"Aren't you..." Jhanvi asks shocked recognizing Gauri.

"You know her?" Tej asks her.

"You are Shakti's daughter right?" Jhanvi asks her shocked. "What are you doing in Om's house?"

"Shakti's daughter?" Tej asks furiously.

"Gauri, who is it?" Omkara asks as he walked out from the bedroom. Gauri runs to him and hugs him tight.

"Don't let them do anything to our baby." Gauri whispers to him frantically.

"Relax... relax." Omkara calmly consoles her. "Dad, Mom... come in."

"What is she doing here?" Tej asks him.

"Gauri is my wife." Omkara calmly informs him.

"WHAT?"

"And please don't shout... you are distressing Gauri. It is disturbing her. You see, she is pregnant." Omkara informs them.

Tej and Shakti fumed as they paced the living room while Gauri gripped Omkara's hand and their mother's cried. After Tej had found out about it, Omkara had called up Shakti and informed him about their marriage and baby. Shakti and Pinky had quickly come over. Then they had told the family truthfully about everything.

"Okay... Gauri... whatever happened, happened. You come with me now." Shakti tells her.

"Come with you?" Gauri asks him shocked.

"Yes. If you want you can keep the baby too but you will not have anything to do with him." Shakti tells her pointing at Omkara.

"WHAT? How can you take the baby? That baby is a Oberoi! He will be with us!" Tej furiously tells Shakti.

"My daughter is carrying the baby!"

"My son is the father!"

"ENOUGH!!!" Omkara furiously says. "I don't care about your family rivalry. Don't give a damn who is right and who is wrong. Neither Gauri nor I am wrong here. All we want is to be together and give our baby a family and a safe life. We are not going to get a divorce nor give up our baby. You all can be a part of ours and our baby's life as much as you want as long as you don't harm our family in anyway."

"How can you say that, Om? She is a Sharma!"

"She is Gauri Omkara Singh Oberoi." Omkara replies.

"He is an Oberoi, Gauri!" Shakti tells Gauri.

"Did you forget what his family did to us?" Pinky asks Gauri in tears.

"I am a part Oberoi, Papa. And a Oberoi is growing inside me." Gauri tells them though with tears in her eyes confidently then turning to her mother she says, "He hasn't done anything to us. All he did was, love me and take care of me. And I love him."

"This is your decision?" Shakti asks her furiously.

"Our decision." Omkara replies.

Few months later

"He is awake." Gauri says smiling on the phone happily. "Just a sec." she keeps the phone near their baby's mouth and says, "Ayaan, say hi to Dadi." Ayaan gurgles in reply happily making Gauri chuckle. After a few seconds, Gauri keeps the receiver on her ears, "Mummyji..."
"It's me, beta." Tej replies.
"Papaji... how are you?" Gauri asks him smiling.
"I am fine. When are you coming here?" Tej asks her.
"Om can't take any more offs now. So..."
"Let him stay there. You and Ayaan come here. and I know you stayed 3 days with them and only 2 with us." Tej grumbles.
Gauri rolls her eyes grinning. "Okay... this time, we'll stay 2 extra days with you."
"Ah good. You come soon." Tej tells her and hangs up.
Chuckling Gauri throws the phone on the bed. Even after Ayaan's birth their families didn't see eye to eye and kind of competed against each other for Om's, Ayaan's and her attention but luckily her family had accepted Om and Ayaan, and his family had accepted Ayaan and her. Om felt it would be a matter of time before the families accepted each other but knowing the enmity as well as she did, she had no hopes of that happening.

"Gauri... where is your that sexy night dress that you tried to seduce me?" Omkara asks going through her cupboard.

"Why do you want that?"

"I want to get seduced." Omkara replies grinning.

"All you have to do is ask, husband." Gauri tells him grinning.

"I don't even have to ask for that." Omkara replies rolling his eyes, "But I want to give that botched up seduction attempt of yours a chance."

"My hormones are not running all over the place now!" Gauri tells him smirking.

"I miss being a sex toy." Omkara says sadly. "Do I have to get you pregnant again for that?"
