My Tomboy Girlfriend

Chapter 12

"So, Ganesh bhaiyya." Gauri said sitting in front of the man criss cross legged. "Where are you from?"

"I am from Mathura." Ganesh said looking at his surroundings in alert.

"Wow! Even I am from Uttar Pradesh, Bareilly." Gauri said clapping her hands. "When you come to Bareilly, you should definitely come to my home, it's beside Shankerji's temple."

"There's also a Jalebi shop in front of my home where they makes delicious Jalebi's, I miss those Jalebi's." Gauri said sadly.

"I know a place here, where they sells Jalebi's." Ganesh said cheering up Gauri.

"Really, will show me that place?" Gauri asked excitedly and Ganesh nodded his head in yes.

"Enough of it now, get away from him." Omkara said in a cold voice which Gauri royally ignored.

"Bhaiyya, say him I won't talk to him. He's very rude." Gauri said the last part whispering.

"I heard that." Omkara said silently.

"So, what I am not afraid of you." Gauri said bravely making Omkara roll his eyes.

"He's a bad man, you stupid girl."

"Are you a bad guy, Ganesh Bhaiyya?" Gauri asked and the man nodded in No.

"See, Ganesh bhaiyya's not a bad guy." Gauri said to Omkara.

"They why don't you ask your Ganesh bhaiyya to tell, which asked him to steal the file?" Omkara asked irritated.

"Ganesh Bhaiyya, who asked you to get the file bhaiyya." Gauri asked turning towards the man, "Tell him and prove that I am right about you being a good guy."

The man sat in silence for a few minutes and looked at Gauri.

"A man called Abhay Mehra asked me collect and bring him the file." Ganesh said making everyone in the room look at him shocked, "He also told me a woman will come and gives me the file."

"I know that woman, she's long and slender with sharp nails right?" Gauri said immediately making him nod in yes.

"You know that woman's nails were so sharp that they left a scar on my hand." Gauri said showing the small scratch on her wrist.

"Why didn't you gave the file to Abhay?" Omkara asked interrupting the conversation.

"They didn't transferred money into my account yet." Ganesh said.

"These rich people also na, They are only rich by name ander se they are the big miser people." Gauri said, "The boy, Chintu. Who lived beside my home his father earns lakhs yet he gave me one rupee chocolate on his birthday."

"Are you saying the truth about not giving the file to anyone?" Omkara asked again interrupting Gauri.

"No, I didn't gave the file to anyone." Ganesh said, "Besides I don't want to become a bad guy in her eyes by lying." He said pointing towards Gauri, who was arranging the first aid box neatly.

"So, what will Abhay do if he gets to know that you failed to get the file?" Omkara asked.

"Probably kill me for disappointing him." Ganesh said shrugging.

Omkara paced to and fro in the room debating with himself.

"Khanna." Omkara said startling Khanna.

"Yes, sir."

"Take this man, give him some money and send him back to a safe place away from Abhay." Omkara instructed making Khanna look wide eyed at Omkara.

"You... You don't want to kill him." Khanna asked surprised.

"No." Omkara said, "sometimes being good to bad people is not bad." He said looking at Gauri, which was now talking animatedly with one of Khanna's men.

"You go with him, he will make arrangements for you." Omkara said to Ganesh pointing towards Khanna.

Ganesh nodded his head.

"Take care, Gauri." Ganesh said looking at Gauri, "When I come to Bareilly, I will come visit you to have Jalebi's with you. And I will give the address of the Jalebi shop to this big guy here, Bye." He said smiling.

"Bye Ganesh Bhaiyya." Gauri said waving her hand.

Omkara, Gauri and others walked out of the building and Omkara opened his car for Gauri to sit, he closed the door and walked towards Khanna's car.

"Make sure, he stays safe." He instructed Khanna and turned towards Ganesh.

"Don't hesitate to ask him if you need anything." Omkara said and turned around to leave when Ganesh called him.

"Take care of her, sir." Ganesh told to Omkara,"People like her who has a pure heart to see only good in other people are rare to find these days. I didn't revealed the name of the person behind this plan because I was afraid if your gun or men, I revealed it only because I don't want alter her belief about everyone's good. Take care of her." He said and sat in the car with Khanna.

Omkara nodded and went towards his car where Gauri was waiting for him to drive her home along with Arjun.

"You came, chalo let's go home." Gauri said as Omkara sat in the driver seat, "It's already 1 AM and I have college in the morning." She said sadly.

"Did Ganesh bhaiyya told Khanna about the jalebi shop's address." She asked but Omkara didn't answer as he drove his car in silence.

"He might have told Khanna, he is a good person, he promised me." Gauri said turning towards Arjun. "See, I told he was a good person but you didn't listened to me. Didn't I told you sometimes being good to bad people is not bad." Gauri said to Arjun.

"Sometimes being Bad to the bad people is also not bad." Omkara said silently.

The remaining journey to their apartment went in silence as no one spoke anything.

Omkara stopped his car in front of their apartment and saw that Gauri was sleeping soundly leaning back in her seat.

"Should we wake her up, Sir?" Arjun asked from behind.

"No, it's better not to wake her up." Omkara said and walked towards Gauri side and opened the door.

"Bring the file to my apartment." Omkara said carrying a sleeping Gauri in his arms and walking towards the lift followed by Arjun.

Arjun opened Gauri's apartment door and Omkara took her inside and laid her on the bed and tucked her, taking a one last look at her as she snuggled against her teddy bear in the bed, he walked out of her apartment.

"Do you need anything else, sir?" Arjun asked standing in front of Omkara's door.

"Get me a replica for my apartment keys, so that when one set is lost, I will have another." Omkara said tossing his apartment keys to Arjun.

"Okay sir."

"And get me a replica of this key too by early morning tomorrow." Omkara said tossing Gauri's apartment key to Arjun.

Omkara walked inside him bedroom and layed on the bed.

"Today morning I woke up to be a person who cannot tolerate the presence of a woman in the same room as him and by the end if the day, I was caring for a girl by carrying her to her apartment. What's happening to me?" Omkara thought laying on his bed.
