Gauri was standing on the terrace of Mumbai's one of the biggest hotel which was on 40th floor. The view of the city from that top point was really mesmerizing and beautiful but her eyes were not looking at that, her eyes were just open but her mind was somewhere else. She was looking like a diva in that dress. Her hairs were flying with her white flowy dress. She was not wearing any accessories except diamond studs in ear. Her eyes were puffy with continuous crying still she managed to hide that under her make up. She came there early before Om arrives there. All the time she was thinking about the afternoon incident and then she decided to message him, asked him to come there and propose him. The whole venue was perfect for any proposal and there was no one to disturb them as well.
Soon after that Om arrived wearing black tuxedo suit as Gauri asked him to wear that. She looked at him who was looking back at her. She went in front of him and closely observed him. They shared a small eyelock. Then she took a small box from the nearby table in which a ring was there. Without uttering anything she sat on her knees with that ring and again a tear made it's way through eyes. But she was quick enough to wipe that. Without wasting a minute she started speaking looking in his eyes while He was just looking at her but didn't utter anything.
Gauri: vaise to ye tumhe karna chahiye tha, but I can't wait so I'm doing it first...First of all, thank you so much for coming in my life. Om, you are the best thing that happened to me after my parents' death. (again a tear slipped from her eyes remembering how Ishana was proposing him and what he was going to reply after she complete speaking) You helped me when I was facing the worst situation of my life. ye jo Gauri tum dekh rahe ho vo tumhari vajah se hi hai....agar tum nahi hote to I don't think ki main kabhi pyaar karne k bare mein soachti bhi,, main bas itna kehna chahti hoon ki tum,, you're the best...I am not able to describe it in words but you know what I want to say,,,, that....I love you Om...I really really love you Om...
.
.
...do you love me??
The hurt was somewhere audible in her voice also, but still she let her inner turmoil out. She tried to tell him everything she was feeling about him but still some words left unspoken. After looking at his expression which were surely not the happy one she couldn't control her tears more. One by another they made it's way through her eyes.
Om bent to her and make her stand up. He put the ring aside and wiped her tears. He hold her both hands and looked in her eyes.
Om(with heavy voice): dekho Gauri, I know ki main jo abhi kehne ja raha hoon vo sun kar tum kabhi mujhe maaf nahi karogi aur ho sakta hai ki vo sunne k baad tum zindgi bhar k liye mujse nafrat karne lago par ab main tumhe andhere main nahi rakh sakta....I saw that coming long ago...mujhe kahi na kahi pata tha ki tum mujhe aaj propose karne vali ho but kya karoon tumse ye kehne ki himmat hi nahi hui...
(he let out a sigh) mujhe pata hai ki pichle kuch dino main hamare bich najdikiya badh gayi thi, but now I realised that it was just attraction and nothing else. Han, main ye manta hoon ki I was attracted towards you, but pyaar....I don't think so that it is proper word to describe my feelings. Main ne kabhi tumse pyaar kiya hi nahi. I know ki hum dono itne kareeb the ki vo feeling tumhe sayad pyaar lagne lagi, par aisa kuch nahi hai...main tumse pyaar nahi karta, aur na hi kabhi karta tha...I don't love you Gauri...
Infact main Ishana se pyaar karta hoon...(she turned her face after hearing what she didn't wanted to hear) jab se maine Sharma Industries join ki hai tab se hi main usse pyaar karta hoon (a smile appear on his lips) bahot hi achi ladki hai vo, aur vo bhi mujse pyaar karti hai....han kuch misunderstandings thi, differences bhi the hamare bich; but now we've cleared that... bahot hi jald hum shadi karne vale hai...(she removed his hold from her hand and looked at him after hearing the word shadi from him) I know gauri maine tumhare saath galat kiya hai par agar main tumhe sach nahi batata to main sayad usse bhi jyada galat karta...sayad tum mujse pyaar karti ho, main nahi...aur phir rishtein to dil se nibhaye jate hai na??
She looked at him unbelievably, after spending so much time with her, so many romantic moments with her, enjoying with her, teasing her, hugging her, kissing her;; he was saying that he don't love her. Then what was that?
Gauri(continuously nodding her head in negative): I can't...I can't...I can't believe this that you don't love me...you must be lying right?? tum mere saath aisa kaise kar sakte ho Om?? (shouting) how could you Om? How could you??? sab kuch tumhare hisab se nahi hoga...tum jab chahe mere saath aate ho aur phir bolte ho ki tum pyaar nahi karte mujse? to phir mujhe itni umeed kyun di? han?? (loudly) bolo?? tumhe pehle se hi pata tha ki main pyaar karti hoon tumse to tumhe mujhe pehle hi sara sach bata dena chahiye tha...ya phir mere itne kareeb hi nahi aana chahiye tha. Vo late night talks, office romance, long drives...kya tha vo sab??
(clapping her hands) manna padega Om, tum bahot hi ache actor ho aur saath main ek number k kamine insaan...pata hai tumne jo kiya use kya kehte hai? DHOKHA,, han dhokha diya hai tumne mujhe...aur Ishana, use bhi tumne dhokha diya hai...pehle mere saath gulcharre udaye aur phir jub mujse tang aa gaye,, chale gaye uske pass... such a bastard you are Om, such a bastard!! I don't believe this k tum vahi Om ho jisne mujhe firse hasna sikhaya, zindgi jina sikhaya, jisne Rudra aur Bhavya ko ek kiya, jisne hamesa meri care ki, mujhe special feel karvane k liye kya kuch nahi kiya!! yaha tak ki apni jaan ki bhi parva nahi ki,,,,
.
....I think tum vo Om ho hi nahi....
She hold his cote tightly and started jerking him back and forth.
Gauri: javaab do mujhe? kaha hai mera Om? kaha hai vo Om jisse mine pyaar kiya tha aur jo mujse pyaar karta tha...kaha hai, javab do?
He hold her hands and made her left his coat.
Om: what the hell is wrong with you Gauri??
Gauri(crying badly): what the hell is wrong with YOU?? kyun mere saath aisa kar rahe ho? maine....maine jab tumhe aur Ishana ko dopahar mein dekha to...to mujhe laga ki vo sab...vo sab juth hai....aur maine soacha ki tum ab bhi mujse pyaar karte ho,, kyunki Om to mujse pyaar karta hai na...vo kaise Ishana k saath...aur dekho main bhi....kitni pagal hoon....tumhe propose bhi karne aa gayi vo sab apni aankhon se dekhne k baad bhi,, lekin tum...tumne to majak bana kar rakh diya meri feelings ka Mr. Omkara Singh Oberoi...Kyun Om kyun???
She held his jacket and slowly sat on her knees crying.
Gauri: main pyaar karti hoon tumse Om....(holding his leg) nahi reh sakti tumhare bina...please aisa mat karo...I promise...I promise main tumhe Ishna se bhi jyada pyaar karungi...please...please mere saath aisa mat karo...tell me that you love me and not Ishana...
Om(trying to remove her hand from his leg): Gauri please,, don't do all this drama....ye sab karke koi fayda nahi hone vala hai...I love Ishana and that's final...(finally he removed her hand from his leg and she fell on the floor.) dekho tum capable aur achi ladki ho,,, tumhe tumhare status ka koi bhi ladka mil jayega...stop chasing me...aur ho sak eto mujhe maaf kar dena...
Saying that he started going from there while she was shouting his name. She tried to stand up but fell on the floor and her leg got hurt. She hissed in pain but still he didn't look back at her. Finally she stood up and ran behind him.
Gauri(holding his one hand): Om please mat jao...please...dekho abhi bhi vaqt hai keh do ki tum majak kar rahe ho....(but he kept walking) say that you love me and not Ishana....main tut jaungi Om...I can't afford to lose you...
But he didn't said anything and also didn't turn around to look her. On reaching the exit he made her remove hold from his hand and went from there while she stood there crying and shouting his name. Her look was worst than ever. That white dress was torn from ends. The kajal and lipstick was all over her face. Her eyes were swollen and puffy. Her hairs were messy and face was tear stained. She kept shouting his name.
Gauri(shouting loudly): Omm.....OMMMMM.....tum aise nahi ja sakte.....Ommm.....ruk jao....(she turned around and throw everything from the table on floor.)(again shouted) aakhri baar warn kar rahi hoon ruk jao varna ab jo hoga uske jimmedar tum hoge (she looked at one of the broken glass of bottle)...Ommmm....

Okay...so sorry for stopping it here. I know you might be angry on me for doing so but apologies for that.
So hope you guys liked the chapter. I know I've shown Gauri so miserable and it was really very dramatic but couldn't help it. This was necessary because she don't want to lose him and she can't afford him to left her. She was so attached to him as there was very few people so close to her and she can't afford to lose them and Om was on the top of that list.
So what do you guys think what she is upto? Is she going to commit suicide or Om will save her? And why Om is doing all these? Any idea?? Your views and comments are most welcome. Silent readers vote and comment, that really means a lot and a big thank you to all my readers who never forget to read, vote and comment on my work out out of their busy lives,, that is the best reward I can get from you all.
Thank You!!!
