Om gets up early as he knows one thing that Gauri loves to do.
O(Thinking): Gauri loves early morning walks so there is a chance that she is might be outside.
He heads outside and there she sees a girl sitting there, enjoying the flowers. It was no one other than the girl he saw in the photo, Gauri’s friend. He quickly runs up to her and stands in front of her.
Friend(F): Omkara??
Om nods.
F: What are you doing here? Gauri is not here.
O: I never asked for Gauri, which means she is here. Please tell me where she is.
F: Sorry, I can’t Do you know how much she suffered because of you? Ever since she came here, she cried herself to sleep? I cannot put her in that situation again.
O: I understand her now.
F: What do you understand about her?
O: That she is a genuine person and I want her back in the life.
F: Isn’t this what you said when she first decided to leave? You asked for a chance and she gave you one. But you blew it? You will always remember what you saw in Bareilly but you never gave yourself a chance to think what was in front of her. You always called her a family ruiner but you did not realize that the reason why your parents are together now is because of her. She took Svetlana out of your life, your family.
O: But, what I saw in Bareilly…
F: You just fell into Kali’s trap just like those villagers. Those villagers were illiterate so they just took everything that was in front of them. But. what happened to your common sense?
Om remembers all the things Gauri said before and tries to put the pieces together.
F: Kali and her brothers wanted her as a wife. All three will marry to her at once. Imagine how a girl will feel in that situation but she was pushed into that situation because of her family situation. She acted as if she was enjoying everything but inside she was crying. They would put chains onto her feet and slap her like she is some slave. She wanted to leave all that behind and tried to seek your help but all you did is return her back to Kali.
Om starts to cry.
F: Who are you to tell her who to marry? I did not see it with my own eyes but after hearing her story, I was sympathetic. Where was your sympathy? You did not even have an ounce of it because then you would have understood her. Please leave her alone. She is slowly getting out of it and want to start her life again. Before she was trapped by Kali and you but now she is a free bird. Give her that chance if you ever want to help her out.
O: I just want to say sorry. It just made assumptions because of my family problems. I did not realize what type of person she was.
F: But she did by being Chulbul. She was a person who would do anything to save her mother. Usually, girls would always look at the way a guy treats their mother because they say a husband would treat their wife the same way they treat their mother. In your case, this does not even apply.
O: I understand my mistakes but I am not going to apologize. Instead, I am going to let her enjoy her life.
Om walks away to his room.
O(Thinking): I always thought that my life was hell and I expressed that anger to everyone. But, you were the total opposite. Despite the problems you have faced, you have always had a smile on the face. From now on, I will find you and watch you from far away. I will give you all the happiness you wanted in your world. You are a free bird now so fly high, Gauri.
He goes back to the girl and starts talking to her. (All that part is muted but you will see how the story unfolds.)
