''GAURI..... GAURI......... '' Swara shouted out loud.Gauri and Om ran to Swara.
''What happened Swara...... calm down and say...'' a concerned Gauri enquired.
''Someone...... eeee..... someone was here. He sat beside me ....... here..... just so close.......in my bed. Someone was here, just beside me,..... hhhh.....just beside me, the ligh....... lights were off, shadow.... dark......" Swara shouted curling herself in fear.
''Calm down Swara the doors are closed, only we both are here with you, no one could have entered.'' Om said to calm her down.
''Who is he?'' Swara asked repelling away from Om in fear.
''He's Om, Swara, I told you right, our friend.'' Gauri said. "Please calm down first Swara.
''FRIEND?? I'm her brother. You just lost your memory, it doesn't mean you'll forget our relationship. You can forget people's face, because that's stored by your brain, your heart still knows the feelings and relation. When you believe you know, there won't be any reason for stress, just trust your feelings! We are here with you, to support you, because we don't want anyone to take advantage of your situation, you don't have to worry about anything. You will gradually be able to feel our connection, I know since you don't remember you'll feel strange, but I promise you'll slowly get comfortable. You trust Gauri na?" Om asked.
"Mm....... But there was someone here.''
Om got up and checked the room, behind the door, curtains, inside the shelves and toilet. He came to Swara and said ''see there's no one here, for your satisfaction, I'll check the other rooms too. I'll lock this window. You don't have to worry Swara, just call if you need anything, Ok!"
"Swara, I'll sleep with you today, you don't worry, I'll just come in a minute." Gauri said and closed the door behind her as she stepped out of the room.
Gauri held Om's hand to stop him.
''Om, was it him??'' Gauri asked''Mm........yes.''
''Didn't I warn you Om, see how she reacted.''
''I'm sorry, but don't worry she'll be fine, she'll be fine.'' Om reassured her.
''You know what, you don't talk to me, I had told you not to get him here.''
Om held her hand and said, ''How could I stop him, he wouldn't stop if I said, you know him, just like us, he would also want to take care of her na, it's his right, it's just because he is helpless that, he has to do this like robbers! Above all, if we are worrying so much about her, just imagine HIS situation in this condition! Even though he is behaving all positively, he is dying inside! You know him Gauri, if I was in Swara's situation, would you not try any means to just see me Gauri?"
''You are right, I know, he had to be careful, he went and sat next to her, you know how much everything is already confusing her, we have to be supportive. In love you have to make some sacrifices for each others benefit! He can't deal with this situation without patience Om! You have to talk to him, this time strictly! In fact, you don't, I'll talk to him! she said in anger and turned to leave.
He pulled her closer and said '' Now are you going to be angry with your husband because of him?" She stood dumbstruck at the moment, she felt something broke apart and she was trying to put back the pieces in vain. She felt his arms move on her back and his the feel of his nose on hers paused everything that was moving around them. It was just Om and Gauri. She slowly opened her eyes, and looked into his, it felt like he just didn't let a gaze, he looked deep into her, felt like trying to pull out something hidden, they felt each other's heart beating harmoniously......
