When She Coloured My Canvas 😍

Colour 13 - Rikara's Wedding Rasams

Rikara's sagai was done. The marriage was after 1 month. All the rasams were planned to be conducted in the palace and the marriage in Mumbai. As this marriage was supposed to be a centre of attraction of public, all the arrangements were made to be perfect. Anika was in charge of arrangements of both sides. As she was part of both families, she had kept assistants too to manage the work. Gouri stayed in the palace itself.

Both Gouri and Om were busy this time. Gouri had started taking English classes from a tutor whereas Om was busy with business and artworks.

In all these months, Shivika and Om used to visit the palace in every weekend.Even though Rikara had not opened up their feelings, they used to communicate each other through their passion – Art. Every time Om came , he used to take classes for Gouri and they used to talk a lot about art. He even taught her some lessons of sculpting .

But day by day, both were becoming closer to each other even though they only used to see rarely. Slowly, they were coming out of their shells; but still something kept them away from opening up their feelings. They were afraid as to what the other one would think.

Anika reached Jodhpur palace ,1 week before the wedding. She wanted to do all arrangements for her chutki by herself.She was so excited for the marriage.Even though Shivay couldn't bear  sending her away for 1 week, she insisted on going.

Now, the whole oberoi family reached the palace for the rasams. Everyone were astonished by the decorations and celebrations of the Royal family.

Rikara were also very excited, but they didn't show it outside. Already both were being teased by all family members, specially by Rudy.

Gouri was in her room. She was there to welcome everyone, but did not get the chance to talk to Om.She was about to take some of her art stuff from the top of her big wardrobe. It was difficult for her. As she was about to climb a stool, she saw Om coming.
Her heart beats were raising; she wondered why.

O: hmm.hai gauri. Didnt see u downstairs.

She just smiled & climbed the stool.

O:If you want, I will help you.

G: ( attitude)oh, I don't need anyone's help. I can do it by my own.
O: ok fine.Anyway I'll be there here to catch you if you fall down.
Gouri was tensed.
G: no it's not needed. I will manage.

But as she was about to take the box, she almost slipped from the stool and she fell down on the ground  hitting her back.Om was laughing seeing this.

G: ouch, what type of chirotta are you? Couldn't you have helped me?
O: ( laughing) come on gouri, you told you don't need any help right?
Gouri was irritated.After some time Om gave her a hand; she refused. But Om took her in his arms.

Gouri was shocked.He kept her on the bed and tended her leg. But she was having back pain.She couldn't apply the balm alone. Both were confusedly looking each other. This is when Shivika entered.

Sh: ( coughed) Anika I think instead of pre wedding rasams, we are seeing pre wedding romance.

Rikara were embarrassed.
O:wo..shivay, actually she fell down and I was helping her.
A: oh..so filmy romance haan??
G: nahi jiji, darsal he didn't catch me when I fell. He was laughing onl.
Sh: that was so mean Om.
O:oh come on guys, just stop this. Now bhabhi please help her to put some balm on her back; she has back pain.
A: why Om, you could have did that.  After all you are already married.

Gouri was rolling her eyes at her jiji. Om was embarassed & he quickly moved out of the room smiling.
Gouri's eyes followed Om as he moved out & she was blushing.
