Maid of Honor

Omkara needs a plan (A)

Remember! You called me that day! And I said I was in Dessert?... Well, we happened to be doing a safari. But all of a sudden there started happening a sand storm... And I was with the owner of a camel... He managed to save me and his camel but... After the storm was over, the camel wouldn't get up...it restrained itself... I was exhausted... That's when I saw him coming........on a Black horse!!!' Gauri said her eyes completely dreamy...
And Omkara just looked on.

he did give some wow! awesome! looks but he didn't mean them...

when they were having their dinner he tried to be back to normal thinking that this long distance relationship wouldn't work out and eventually Gauri's heart will break and like a hero he would save her.. go to her and confess his feelings...

when he was again jolted to his reality... how he wished to punch that hot and well-sculptured jawline guy in the face wasn't just a dream!.

'and guess what?' Gauri screamed in excitement

'what?'

' we are getting married, at the end of this month... and Omkara I don't know anything you have to be my maid of honor'

' we are getting married at our summer home in Scotland since I always wished to have a destination wedding and Gauri don't have any objections... its gonna be two weddings first one in Scotland and other here in India with our rituals.

'great! that sound's exciting !' and he exhaled air.

' we aren't expecting too many people, we just gonna post it or something after the small affair is done'  Ambar said.

'wait! month end? isn't it in just two weeks?'

'yes! have you ever been to Rajasthan...Alsisar?

'you know I haven't' Omkara confessed a little sad.

'you should see the Mandir where we would be exchanging our vows' Ambar said.

'and guess what! it's the same Mandir where Ambar's parents were married.'

'it's so spectacular on the verge of a beautiful lake, you'll love it man' Ambar added'

and Omkara just smiled forcibly

********

'Maid of honor?' Daksh asked and started laughing...

Shivay shoot glair on him and looked at Omkara 'what are you talking man?..she is getting married?'

'yes, Shivay! and the guy ... he's a prince... she would never leave him for a jerk like me'

'she asked you to be her maid of honor? what did you say?' Rudra asked.

'did you say yes?' Daksh asked

'no'

'no?' Shivay said

'i mean I didn't say anything... I said ill think and tell'

'you need to think about it man' Shivaay said seriously

'yeah! which dress gonna make your ass look great! huge decisions to make' Daksh laughed... earning a great punch in his tummy by Rudra.

'she really into this guy?' Daksh asked after coming on line and more seriously

'you should have seen her, she was all moony around him as if he shits unicorns'

'man! this is serious, I guess you'll have to do it' Shivaay said

'what?' omkara asked

'you'll have to be her maid of honor' Rudra completed the sentence.

what?' 

'yeah! I mean think about it...this way you'll have an excuse to be around her all the time' Shivaay told 

'yeah helping her around being the man behind the curtains' Rudra said.

shivaay continued 'and by this way, you could point her out that this guy is not good for her and she really doesn't know this guy and she is doing a mistake'

'no, no, no! im not gonna do that'

'look Omkara you don't have any other options you've got better chances of stopping this wedding from inside than from outside' Shivaay explained him.

'common man, if you really want Gauri back from this guy, you really have to do whatever it takes!' Rudra said.

whatever?' Omkara asked

**********

the other day Gauri asked Omkara to pick her up as she wanted to discuss something with him, she directed to take her to this hotel.

'this dress is beautiful' Omkara complimented her.

'well thank you!'

'i'm so happy. you gonna ....do this' Omkara said.

'pleasure, for this wedding I'm willing to do whatever it takes' she said excitedly

'oh' I'm so excited' he said

'me too...' she squealed

'okay so let me introduce you to other bridesmaids you are going to work with.

'okay'

'All right Bhavya...

'Bhavya ? great I like Bhavya'

'great! she loves you'

'oh wow!'

'then there is Richa my school friend'

'Richa?' I don't know her'

'she's the best'

'wow'

'And Ridhima'

'what?' he screamed shocked [no no!!!]

'i had to Om she is my cousin' Gauri tried to explain to him while they were in the lift.

'she hates me' Omkara concluded.

'you broke her heart!'

'she broke my nose!!'

'that was an accident'

'no, she hit me with her fist...look i was completely honest with her when i said nothing serious and she agreed,'

'well sometimes our hearts don't match our mouths' Gauri said

'Gauri!!!'

'she wanted to be my maid since we were 5'

thank you now she's gonna hate me more'

and they reached the table where everyone was seating already.

they greeted each other and started speaking about chores

when Omkara thought that this wasn't that hard after all.

when Gauri got Ambar's call she excused herself when Ridhima said 

'have you met Ambar? isn't he so dreamy?'

yeah, very much...look Ridhima. I'm...'

'listen!. don't bring the past in between, I'm doing this for my sister, we should concentrate on it' she said to him and then loudly said 'guys we just have nine days left before we go to Alsisar, we need to move it faster'

'i've been MOH six times I know every shit about it... all you have to do is follow my lead!' Richa said

'what is MOH?' Omkara asked confused.

'Made of Honor you sucker, and that's you' Ridhima said.
