Chapter 8
Gauri was very well aware how his body fitted hers like a long-lost jigsaw puzzle . She had too inhale sharply each time his face pushed more into her chest although it was a unconscious act from his side Gauri was unable to bear his closeness - not after His Rejection ! , again there it goes something or the other reminds her his rejection . Gauri holding his forearm places him on his back seeing that he was warm enough to handle himself .
Looking at his pale cheeks and the eyelids which had lost colors. Gauri runs her fingers through his cheeks .
"Why? Do I need to suffer so much in just a Not even a Month-long marriage ? Ahh? And Your face somewhat makes me feel that You too suffered along with me or I am wrong ? Why do you always walk away rather I wish you would face me and clear my confusions !" Letting out an exasperated sigh she continues "May be we were not destined together or May be Our horoscopes never matched ", Gauri clicks her tongue letting out a sad chuckle
"horoscope -It tied me to you so soon! Marrying after 12 long years wouldn't have been this bad I guess ",
Gauri's stops swallowing the lump unable to speak more as tear makes its ways through her cheeks .
She lays beside him with an ache in her heart as She looks away from him and lets sleep take over .
Gauri checks his temperature placing her hand on his forehead, Finding it is still the same . she dials up Randhir to get a doctor . She leaves the bed to have a shower and prepare soup for him.
Doctor prescribes medicines to Omkara , who could not even barely keep his eyes open. Randhir sit beside Omkara smiling sadly , He had never seen Omkara falling this weak not even When Ishana died - He had pretended to be strong but with Gauri seems like He cannot keep his emotions in bay that he ended up hurting himself
Randhir sits on the couch hearing the footsteps of Gauri , He wants to know what would she do right now- Just leave him to suffer or care for him after all Omkara did choose to escape rather than face her drinking himself to - He doesn't know Randhir lets out a troubled sigh. Pulling out his phone he pretends to be on business talk discussing the details of the upcoming project . Gauri walks in with a tray placing it on the side table.She passes Randhir his cup of coffee with a smile who acknowledges with a smile still on the call.
Gauri you can do it ! He is sick ! humanity comes first Gauri ! She had thought he would be fine by today but he wasn't even ready to open his eyes .
Taking a seat beside him in the bed. Gauri taps him hopefully "Omkara -come on get-up-have some soup "
"Gauri" He mumbles holding her hand against his face snuggling closer "It is cold!"
Gauri tries to pull back feeling uncomfortable, She sees through the corner of his eyes still Randhir lost in the call but least did she know Randhir was looking closely their moves .
"Get-up you would get some energy" Gauri calls him again softly making him groan .
Gauri holding his forearm pulls him up making his back rest to the headrest with so much difficulty - Hulk! She snorts feeling his weight on her who was falling over her shoulder . She pushes him back softly making him again rest against the head rest .
Taking the soup in her hand . She takes a spoon blowing it to make it less warm as She brings it close to his mouth ,
"Omkara open your mouth" Gauri calls him softly
Omkara barely manages to open his eyes as Gauri could see how tired and sick he looked .
"I-can't " Omkara mumbles
