Not Reading proof

Happy Reading

Gauri's POV

I looked in mirror, my lifeless hazel eyes were staring at me back, I looked so different, I was never this pale, my skin looked so dry. this red colour suit was loose on body, though still this colour  was suiting on my complexion. my hair  was wet because of shower, I bathed in evening after playing with children in garden. they are so active and smart child i didn't realize when I got dirty along with them.

I chuckled remembering their cuteness. life had changed a lot so did my body grow too. Just I wasn't actively involve with this process. I lost my 10 years sleeping.

let's not think about it Ri.

Ri

why do I feel? I have heard this nickname from someone else. my stupid head will hurt let's not stress about it.

I was tying the knot on my back when suddenly there was power cut, before I can move in dark and look for candle, jiji walked in I didn't turn to look her.

"Jiji please help in tying the knot" 

I didn't hear any reply but she walked towards me. I was able to see my self in mirror because of the candle light, she kept the candle on dressing table and moved towards my back.

"jiji why suddenly power cut?"

the moment I felt presence at my back, my breathing increased I looked in mirror and there was Omkara with open hair looking directly in my eyes, for the first time we were seeing each other in true sense, his eyes were full of sorrows and sadness, something more was there pulling me towards him. he didn't move  his eyes from me, he tied the knot without touching me at all. Neither he  moved nor his eyes, his gaze was challenging like asking something, I didn't know why but I couldn't move my eyes from his face, even after trying. he looked no less than injured lion with his eyes. his eyes were red maybe he didn't sleep enough or maybe he cried. he looked so serious, so powerful from his personality.

But his eyes spoke his Vulnerability he looked so lost, so weak. I didn't realize how much time passed like that but we broke the eye contact only after power was back.

Without a single word he left my bedroom, I felt something was odd maybe not with him but with me, I walked in balcony attached to my room. whether was cool, I felt good instantly as the cool breeze kissed my face. something was wrong with me, with my heart. it never behaved this way before why his sadness affecting me so much? why i want to take away all his pain?

As a human I should help him, he looked rude earlier but now I realized he tries to hide his broken self, what could be the reason? maybe I just should be away from this guy and his matters.

"Maasi" I heard pari's Voice

I walked in my room back from the balcony.

"Pari" I shirked seeing her playing with candle  light which was still lighted, candle was about fall, I rush towards her but it already landed on her hand and fell down. I scooped her in my arms away from the candle, I unlighted it and took her with me bathroom.

she was hissing in pain, I put her hand under water.

"Is It burning too much?" I asked her. she nodded her head in reply, tears were already running down on her face. i hate myself for being this much irresponsible. I opened first aid Box and applied ointment on her hand where it was already little red. her skin was so soft to bear this kind of pain my heart was aching for her.

I blew mouth air on her hand.

"it will get better soon" I said and wiped her tears.

she nodded in reply and wiped my tears, I didn't realize I was having tears in my eyes till now.

I pulled her closer to me and hugged her, I kissed her forehead, she was so cute, I was already in love with this girl.

"you are so brave girl, please now on don't play with lighted candles"

"okay Maasi"

"why were you here?"

"I came to say you sorry, because of us badi mummy shouted on you thinking you allowed us play in dirt"

she was truly a god's gift just like her name.

"your badi mummy is my mummy too, just like dugdug di shouts on you for your good, Jiji shouted on me it's not big deal, when I was of your age I used to trouble her alot" I kissed her once again.

"you are so nice" she smiled

"not more than you" I gestured her to kiss my cheek, she did happily.

I hold her in my arms and walked back in balcony.

"Do you like moon?"

"yes papa said moon is so beautiful just like mumma" she was looking up in sky.

I felt some unknown pain with her reply.

"Where is mumma?"

"she left us"

"Pari" I heard  Jiji's voice. I walked back with pari in my arms. i made her stand.

Jiji looked happy.

"Pari are you troubling your maasi?"

"JiJi, you know right only I can trouble the world no other way around" I grinned

"I missed you so much chutki" Jiji cupped my face.

"Now I m back no more sadness" I wiped her tears.

"badi mummy, am I dugdug di's chutki?" Pari asked innocently.

jiji was confused with the question then she nodded.

"dugdug Di" Pari shouted and run. 

"call me chutki, I m your chutki" I heard her voice from out. she ran towards her di.

we both sister chuckled, "Jiji sapre some time to your first daughter" I pouted

"My nautanki" she hugged me, we broke the hug and i made her sit on bed with me.

"Jiji I want to talk with you"

"same here my chutki"

"why did mom dad came and left in two days?"

"papa  had meeting and  you know na papa  can't take care of himself, and you are enough to go with them"

"what happened in these many years? how I came here?, hmm forgot it. I know jiju must have suggested Mumbai is better for treatment. tell me  when dugdug was born?"

some sadness came on her face "Life changed a lot, you have lost so many years sleeping, I wish thing wouldn't have been this way"

"when did Omkaraji married? where is his wife?" I asked the main question which i wanted to know the most.

"he been through lots, may god doesn't give anyone that kind of pain which he went" Jiji wiped her tear.

my heart ache for him, now I m sure no matter what happens I want to make him happy.

"his wife?" I asked

"she left him, it been years she didn't come back. he is still waiting for her"

jiji's mobile rang it was papa's call we both spoke with him and talked about past memories when jiji was unmarried.

At Night I was with kids, I read stories for them, something I missed most.

Stories

My first love.

"You know Maasi, Pari says story too" Shivansh said.

Pari looked little nervous.

"Really sweetheart?"

She nodded shyly, she is so much like her dad, few words girl.

Omkara is no word guy.

He hadn't spoke a single word with me till now, before he wasn't like this. He was reserved guy but sweet one, always making fun of ruddy and being jiji's favourite devar.

"Will you tell me a story?" I asked her

"Pari tell that one" dugdug chirped.

"Papa wali?" She asked cutely.

"Yes sweety" dugdug pinched her cheek lovingly.

Jiji and I share same bond, the difference was a little more that's why jiji became my second mom, and I her first child.

"There was a prince" she started.

"Normally story starts with Princess, don't they?" I asked her confused.

"It's a guy's fairytale" Shivansh replied surprising me. He looked truly interested in story. Till now he was ignoring my stories.

Even guys like fairytale but from a guy's side. Strange I never thought that.

"He was king of colour, but he only liked dark colours, one day a princess walked in his life with chocolates, she didn't share her chocolates with prince but she shared her bright colour and made his life bright full. The Princess was fiery, beautiful, full of life.
The Prince fell in love with her at first sight"

"Isn't that princess sound so cool maasi?" Asked dugdug dreamily.

"Yeah she is just like you" I pinched her nose lightly.

"Don't disturb dugdug di" Shivansh ordered, he is replica of jiju. I pinched his cheek and pulled him in my lap.

"That princess went her kingdom, prince kept loving her and drawing her. When they both grew up they met again and this time princess fell in love with the prince. They went jungle and danced there. Prince showed his kingdom all paintings which he made of her. Everything was so good and perfect but one day the princess slept and didn't wake up"

"Then?" I asked interested.

"Things changed and situation changed they both went apart in life but Prince only loved her and will be waiting for her always, one day they will meet again and give this tale a perfect ending" she said with smile.

So it's the story of Pari's mom and Omkara's. They met and fell in love and got married. With time problems started and they parted their ways now he is still waiting for her to return.

Such a loyal guy, a different kind of respect I felt for Omkaraji at thi moment.

"Pari" I heard a strong voice.

Pari run reached to Omkara who was standing at threshold. He held her in his arms.

"Papa I missed you"

"Papa missed his doll too" he kissed her forehead. For once I saw this guy happy. He was genuinely happy, he must have loved his wife so much that he can't forgot her and move on in life.

Pari must means world to him.

"Maasi told Stories and heard my story too" she said nodding her head.

His eyes were on me, I looked down and gulped. Maybe because of today's earlier encounter, my heart beat picked a new speed. I wanted to look up at him but I didn't dare. His presence create something inside me I don't know how to overcome it.

I liked this feeling, I wanted it more but yet it's dangerous. He was like a story hero.

Mysterious, serious, dangerously handsome with sinful features, I wished to know who was true Omkara.

"Pari wish good night to all" Omkara said to pari I looked up at her.

"Good night di, bhai and Maasi"

"Good night pari" we said in union.

He nodded his head seeing me and left. Maybe he doesn't like me, otherwise what could be the reason that he doesn't like me.

Later on bed I was thinking about all the happenings, Lot's of thing have changed, importantly in Omkara's life, he found love, got married had a kid then separation it must be hard.

I heart a knock on my door, I opened it.

Pari was there with one of her soft toy.

"What happened?" I asked sitting on my knees.

"Can I sleep with you? Maasi" she asked.

"Of course" I replied but in my mind lot's things were going, I wanted to know the reason but i can't risk hurting this cutie pie.

We settled on bed.

"Tam-tam say good night to Maasi" she ordered her teddy bear, whom she was clutching close to her.

"Good night Tam-tam" I said and pulled her closer to me.

"Good night, doll" I kissed her forehead for my surprise she kissed my cheek.

"Good night princess" she replied.

I chuckled and hugged her, we drift into a peaceful sleep. Maybe she was the one needed to drive my all worries away.

Hey guys as promised, another update.

I hope this update have helped clearing your doubt.

But yeah they both are going to write once again their love story, this time with the help of Pari.

Stay happy, stay safe❤️

Lot's of love❤️❤️❤️
