Rikara Ts Humdard part 2

Gauri came and had her dinner because she did not to give tension to her mother and worsen her health. She saw omkara having food , ignoring him and she had her part of food.
Omkara saw gauri acting like a mechanical machine.
“where was the girl who had dared to drive bulldozer on this car and  challenged him,  Who fought with him “.
Before omkara started a conversation with her, gauri quickly disappeared to her room which had only darkness Now. Though he did not have the guts to face her, omkara walked into her room which was surrounded by darkness. He saw her sitting in one corner holding a small girl bride toy in her hand with no emotions on her face.
He went and sat near her. She still did not show any movement in her body.
It was when he placed his hands on hers, she shrugged it off and looked furiously at him. But she still did not say a word Her silence was killing him. Why can’t she shout at him like she did at morning?.
” gauri I’m sorry. Please talk to me. Let’s just sort of things between us. Please speak to me ” said omkara almost pleading her.
She rolled her eyes at him and took the small bride toy in her hand , showed to him.
She smiled sadly and said ” you know my best friend gifted me this in childhood before she left the town when she saw me crying because my uncle and aunt again taunted me. She gave me telling that one day someone will come ,love me and take me to the other place where I will be showered with only love. I asked her when that person will come? She said when I will become big like my teacher Didi who is beautiful. U know I was so happy that day. I hoped to grow big soon. All my uncle’s taunts did not break me I was living in a hope that it will end one day. As I grew up I understood that  what my friend actually she had meant my marriage and that person who will take me to light will be my husband. I always used to see myself in the mirror to look if I’m beautiful enough for marriage. Will I look beautiful like this doll. But alas my last hope broke so did I ”
Gauri left the doll and it broke into pieces on the floors. Wiping her teary eyes,  gauri grew silent again.
Omkara could stare at her sadly. He never knew that he had broke her only dream. How could he ever mend his mistakes?.
” it’s ok. You can leave now from this place I don’t need your help Now. I will handle the villagers. What would they ever do they will just bury a person without soul ” said gauri coldly.
Her voice has grown cold. She used to have friendliness,  liveliness in her voice. She was ready to burn in fire than living. His heart was getting heavy with guilt.
” gauri please. Stop this ” said omkara feeling helplessness. He can’t bear to hear more pain of her.
” what happened Mr omkara singh oberoi? You could not handle this much lies right.  For you I’m a gold digger who is still lying ” said gauri angrily.
What was she? One time she is vulnerable other time she gets furious  and angry . Will he ever be able to understand her thought omkara.
” it’s just that last time I want to tell you this. If you don’t believe it does not matter. I always dreamed of love not money, if I am offered world’s all wealth to live with Kali thakur I would rather die than accepting it. ” said gauri with tears welled up in her eyes.
Omkara’s eyes turned moist hearing it. But what  he saw in her eyes turned him fearful. Her eyes became cold, emotionless which no one could read. He could very well identify this change as he had went through it when his mother burned in front of his eyes.
” no he can’t tell gauri to go through that. It will pain a lot. She is too fragile to handle it ” screamed his heart.
But it was too late by then.
” by the way how did you realize that I’m innocent ?” asked gauri in her cold voice.
Back to being cold.
” that small child which saved you and his mother said. ” said omkara remembering what actually happened.
Gauri was walking out of the room and when she turned and said
” oh you believed something without evidence at last. Why did not you think that time that it would again be one of my trap. What if the people were fraud send by me to trap you again? ”

” gauri I know you are innocent I can see that in your eyes ” said omkara softly looking at her. He should handle her delicately
Deadly silence and darkness what the room  was covered with for now.
Gauri was almost stepping out of the room and when she turned back to him locked her cold eyes with his guilty eyes.  Gauri spoke her final words
” I hope you would have seen the innocence in my eyes before or read it before things would have been different. Anyway thanks for teaching me that fairy tales does not exist. Love does not exist in this world nor any other emotions. Thanks “.
Turning her back and not letting her tears flow,  gauri slowly walked out of the room.
Tears escaped from omkara’s eyes and he touched them. Finally he was back to his old form, the angry beast omkara who aroused seeing his mother burning in the fire because of his father was death seeing gauri’s innocence and dreams burning in front of his eyes. The emotions which he thought will never come back to him came back but with a price of her innocence and world.
For everyone who saw gauri walking out of the dark room to the bright hall would be symbolism of her walking from darkness into the light but only he saw that she carried the darkness of this room with her that it could destroy every light which touched her. He saw the same change which almost destroyed his innocence chaining her  and he could not do anything. He could just see her getting destroyed by it.
He saw her doll broken into pieces and he lifted every piece carefully .
As he lifted every piece of the doll. He promised himself he will not let gauri’s innocence get destroyed . He had broken her but he will fix her back if it takes his whole life he does not care .
Ironically enough. It was women who had always influenced omkara’s life.
Seeing his mother’s marriage getting destroyed by his father he never wanted to marry. Riddhima’s betrayal shattered him into pieces and ishana taught him to never trust anyone blindly. Sveltana destroyed his left  innocence and his mother’s suicide sowed the seeds of the beast omkara. But no one suffered it was him who suffered the most and it was gauri who paid the price for what influence this women did to him.
With strong promise to make gauri back to herself, omkara stood in her room waiting for her to come back if it takes infinity let it take. He was ready to wait for her till that time.
