Next Morning In Oberoi Mansion:
Everybody was having breakfast and Omkara was waiting for Gauri to come down. He frowned when he saw her coming down with her bag. He got up and went towards her. Seeing him going everyone noticed Gauri and went towards her.
"What are you doing,Gauri?" Omkara asked perplexed.
"Leaving," Gauri said looking down.
"But you... Before Omkara could continue Gauri cut him off saying,
" I was about to leave yesterday but you gave me a kasam. I did not leave but today I will."
"What about me?" Omkara asked hurt,"Am I not at all important?"
"You are. But my dignity is also important,Omkaraji! I cannot stay here after whatever happened. I am very gratefil to you and I owe you. I will do whatever you ask me to. I can never repay your debt but what about my dignity? Whatever they said has humiliated me and Gauri Sharma can't stay her after that," Gauri exclaimed.
"Gauri beta. Please,ruk jaa," Daadi said.
"Daadiji,I respect you a lot but I can't stay. Please try to understand," Gauri said.
"Gauri,I apologise on behalf of Tej and Pinky," Janvi said.
"Please don't apologise auntyji. It is not your fault. In fact I don't want anybody to apologise. I just want to leave," Gauri explained while Omkara remained silent. After a while he spoke,"Everybody in the family is begging you to stay but YOU won’t! Why? I thought you are the only one who understands me but No! You don't. You are also like everybody else who doesn' care about me. Why am I so unimportant to you,Gauri?" Tears fell from Omkara's eyes as he talked.
"It's not like that Omkaraji!" Gauri tried to explain.
"It is like that,Gauri! It is like that. Main tumhare liye jaan de sakta hoon but you don't care about me!" O.kara shouted.
"Why are saying all this? I am just going out of the house. It is not a big deal," Gauri said exasperated.
"It is a big deal,Gauri. It is. What did I ask for Gauri? I just asked you to stay with me! But you wouldn't. It hurts here," Omkara said pointing to his heart while Gauri remained silent and just looked at the floor. Omkara continued,"You want to leave,right? Saumya is coming to take you. Just go with her," saying this Omkara left.
"See! Now our beta is leaving the house for this sadak chap ladki," Pinky taunted.
"Pinky,stop it!" Janvi shouted while Gauri cried.In The Evening:
Gauri tried to call Omkara. His phone was not reachable. She was in the hostel now. She had come back a few hours ago with Saumya. Oberois tried to stop her but eventually let her go.
"His phone is unreachable," Gauri told Saumya who was sitting on her bed.
"Don't worry,di. He is gonna be fine. Now please come and have your food. You have to take medicines too," Saumya said.
"How can I not worry,Saumya?You don't know him. He is very impulsive. God knows what he will do," Gauri said tensed.
"And you know him very well?" Saumya asked.
"Haa," Gauri said lookimg at her phone.
"Do you love him?"
"What?" Gauri asked shocked.
"Why are you getting shocked? You said you know him very well. You are always there when he needs you. You worry about him so much. He is gone and you don't want to have your food. What is it? Kya ye pyar nahi?" Saumya said softly but Gauri did not answer. What is it? Is it love? No,it is just care for someone who helped you so much,said her brain. Are you sure? Asked her heart which was restless because He is gone. Gauri lied on her bed. She did not eat. What is he doing? Is he alright? These are the questions that roamed in her mind. Also one thing kept nagging her. Saumya's qurstion. Saumya had left but her question remained. Did sje love Omkaraji? No,she can't. She does not belong to his class. She should always remember this truth. A tear slipped from her eye. What would happen if she did belong to his class? What if they met like a normal couple. What if they fell in love? Gauri kept thinking. Why is fate so cruel? She just laid on her bed thinking all this. Sleep did not come. Sleep would not come when she did not know if he is safe or not.On the other hand Omkara sat broken. Will his fate never support him? Will he always be like this? Alone? He was staring hopelessly at the sky when he heard a voice,
"What are you doing here,son?"Precap: Rain!
