She looked at the screen of her phone , and sighed.
It's gonna be four years of their marriage, after few hours . How time flies, though it couldn't be said as four years of their togetherness as they separated after their first anniversary for more than two years. But her heart flutters thinking that they're back finally together.
She unlocked the phone and her eyes got stuck upon her homescreen's wallpaper. It was the picture of them. She smiled.
She was about to call him, but then shrugged away her thoughts and drove her way back to home from her workplace.
She reached home,and saw Omkara wasn't home yet. Her eyes searched for him, she even herself couldn't understand why was she feeling little different and awkward at same time. Her mind continuously was thinking about their big day. She was thinking how would he react? What would he say or feel tomorrow? Coz it's the day of their life which brought them together but it had a worst memory of separation of them too.

Hours passed, he came home.
And he smiled as his eyes fell upon her.
She smiled looking at him and said "tired huh! Seems you had hectic day" helping him remove his coat. She gave him a glass of water as he sat down on the couch resting his back.
"Hmm...back to back meetings huh!" He sighed.
"By the way how was your day? " He asked her loosening his tie . She nodded smiling, telling him about her day. Taking out his clothes she handed them over to him. "Change and come for dinner. I'll be waiting downstairs." She smiled and left the room while he just nodded.
Her smile feels little different today. Happy yet awkward. Omkara thought .

Everyone retired to bed.
Gauri entered inside the room and what she saw was something so adorable. She saw him lying on the recliner, with a book upon his chest and was sleeping. She adored him like a fangirl whose crushing over him like anything. His curled up eyelashes, the calm beautiful face, his shining long hair , and the way he was sleeping like a little baby, free of all worries,peacefully made her go crazy . She couldn't help, but stare at him so lovingly. She kept looking at him until he moved a little in his sleep and the book fell down making little noise. It brought her into the real world , and disturbed his sleep. He lazily opened his eyes and found her standing there. He didn't know how her eyes were stuck upon his serene face. Meanwhile Gauri's heart beats raised as she thought she's been caught red handed while admiring him.
"Gauri?" He whispered slowly, she just looked everywhere but him.
"Ye..yes" She fumbled while answering.
"Is there something ?" He said waking up from recliner, yawning.
"No...no nothing i was just saying.... you...sleep on bed properly." She said and turned away her face.
"Pheww! Thank god he didn't see me staring at him. Or did he? " Gauri thought in mind,biting her tongue.
"Umm...but i feel you're trying to say something?" He picked up the book and walked towards the bed.
" Huh? No no nothing.... Good night." She said,smiling and went to the washroom to avoid any further conversation with him.

In no time Omkara was fast asleep again. Gauri came outside and found him sleeping. She smiled again looking at him. His long locks, his serene face, that mahroon kurta and every other thing about him was just perfect.
How can he be so adorable?
Anyone can keep looking at him for endless hours, adore him like anything,smiling like an idiot.
Today gauri was restless,god knows why. She was happy yet little scared about the big day. She had no idea what to do or say, as she was continuously thinking how would he react as it's gonna be the day when something good as well as bad happened. Would he remember all those happenings ? Of course he would. Coz as it is said- Memories never leave. They made fade with time but never vanish completely.
