Marriage Proposal

CHAPTER 21 : LOVE IS IN THE AIR

Hello all:)

Past few months had been really tough. It was hard, but yeah life has to go on!

And I realised I'm unnecessarily dragging this story. Maybe once I complete this story, others who are waiting for that can start reading this story. So I'll try my best to complete this story within this year, that's by next month.

Early in the morning when Gauri woke up from her sleep, she was surprised to see that her husband was not on the bed.

Gauri decided to take a shower quickly and go to the kitchen since it was her pehli rasoi today.

As she came out of the bathroom, she was surprised to see her husband in his gym clothes, dripping in sweat.

"Hey! Good morning! I was at the gym. Since you were sleeping so peacefully I didn't want to disturb you." Omkara told her.

"Ooh okay! And good morning to you too." Gauri said smiling.

"A very good morning it is." Omkara said smiling seeing her in a saree again.

Gauri blushed seeing him checking her out while walking towards the bathroom.

On reaching the kitchen, Gauri realised she woke up too early since none of the servants were also not there.

Deciding to make coffee for her husband and tea for others, Gauri kept the water for boiling.

As she waited for it to get boiled, Gauri got startled hearing the sudden loud music.

Gauri turned around only to see her husband looking at her with a guilty face, near the speaker.

"You scared me!" Gauri told him sighing.

"Sorry! I just wanted to put some music. Didn't know the volume was too high." Omkara said.

Gauri shook her head with a smile and turned around continuing her work.

After adjusting the volume and putting on some nice music, Omkara came near her and sat on the kitchen slab.

Gauri felt his gaze piercing into her and turned to look at him. She blushed seeing him staring at her and then turned back.

"Stop staring." Gauri told him still feeling his gaze on her.

"Why?"

"You are making me conscious." Gauri said blushing while stealing glances of him.

"My wife! I will stare." Omkara said smirking.

Gauri looked at him in amusement.

"What, wifey?" Omkara asked grinning.

Gauri shook her head smiling before proceeding with her work.

"Do you remember the last time we were in this kitchen?" Omkara asked her.

Gauri thought for a while before looking at him.

"It was 6 months back, right? When I heated up the dinner for you. Before the day I left from here." Gauri said in amusement realising even though she used to visit his house often, she never really came to the kitchen after that incident.

"Then, you were my supposed fiancèe and now you are officially my wife." Omkara said smiling.

"We have come a long way." Gauri said smiling while pouring the coffee into two cups.
