Zindagi- A Rikara SS (complete)

Chapter 4

A month has flown by, and the dates for the marriage ceremonies of gauri and dhruv have been sealed. A lot has changed in this month for gauri; she has finally started to express her love for dhruv, has finally started to let go of the remains of her dead marriage. Each day dhruv gives her a reason to cherish and embrace herself, each day he makes her fall in love with herself and with him.

Today, is the day that officially marka the beginning of their marriage ceremonies. Having decided to do everything in Gujarat, neither dhruv nor gauri wanted to miss out on the Gujarati touch in their lavish spreads and the décor. Gauri's house was buzzing with people and her friends who she had met here when she came here with nothing in hand.

The boundless guests and friends had kept gauri's mother occupied while the bride and the groom had sneakily escaped to find some their time..

Kya yaar gauri? Kitne dino se ache se baat tak nhn hui hai humari...Jab baat karne lago koi na koi aa jata hai...A frustrated dhruv tells her as soon as they reach a hide out ( What is this gauri?? We haven't had the chance to talk, Someone or the other will keep intruding)

Kon excited tha grand shaadi ko lekar?? Gauri asks squinting her brows together while her arms land perfectly on her hips ( Who was excited to have a lavish wedding?? )

Acha na baba! Main he tha... Par kiya toh tumhari khushi ke liye hai na yeh sab.. Karan says pouting ( Okay na fine! I was... But I did it for you, everything is for your happiness)

Aur bolo agar nhn pasand hai toh abhi ke abhi band karwaa deta hoon sab kuch. He adds quickly taking her happiness into consideration (Tell me if you aren't happy! I will cancel everything right away)

Pasand nhn tha pehle, par tumhe yun khush dekh ke pasand aane laga hai...Gauri says blushing (Initially this idea didn't appease me much, but seeing you content I am in love with this)

Aur mujhe yeh blushing gauri pasand aane lagi hai.... Dhruv says while caressing her cheek with his finger ( And I have started to adore this blushing gauri)

Meanwhile at oberoi mansion,

The past month has been a month full of forbearance for jhanvi, everytime she thought about the company and the marriage, the one and only thought clouding her mind would be about GAURI. She had no idea why uneasiness would creep her heart thinking about the impending wedding... She didn't know why it would always feel as if she is going to lose something very precious whenever the thoughts about dhruv&ri crossed her mind... nevertheless, putting her apprehensions aside jhanvi like a perfect business partner started to get everything ready for her soon to be associates.

Walking across the hall with some boxes, she bumps into a tall figure...Om dhiyaan se....she says balancing herself. ( Om! Careful)

Sorry mom! Busy tha phone main.. dhiyaan nhn diya. I hope aapko lagi nhn.. Om says and gets going. (I'm sorry mom! Was busy on my phone, didn't pay attention. I hope you aren't hurt mom)

Yeh chot uss chot ke saamne kuch bhi nhn hai jo tum mujhe tumhe pichle 3 saal se aise dekh kar roz lag rahi hai om... Jhanvi says feeling hard to control her emotions seeing her beloved son losing himself.. ( This hurt is nothing compared to the ache my heart undergoes seeing my son like this since the past 3 years)

Mom please.....Om says with fury in his eyes.. Mujhe iss baare main koi baat nhn karni hai! He adds ( I don't want to talk about this)

Kab tak om?? Kyun nhn dhoondhte ho gauri ko? Yeh tum bhi jaante ho ki kitni zaroorat hai tumhe uski... Waapis le aao usko om. She says in a hope.. (Till when om? Why don't you go and search gauri? even you know, how much you need her presence in your life. Get her back om)
