Gouri was taking a nap on the couch in the guest room. She knew that Om had come back from his trip; her heart was pounding against her chest while waiting for him to come near her. She knew that he must be frantically searching for her after drinking his special chai even without taking a shower. Yes, she wanted him to take her to their room. So she was simply waiting for his arrival.

She could hear his faint footsteps approaching her. She slowly tilted her head & sat on the couch.She thought of giving him a tight hug but he was ahead of her. He simply sat near her  and softly captured her lips; they could share all their feelings heart to heart by this.

Om's face lit up seeing her closed eyes. He simply kissed her whole face, on each feature. His hands had already caught her waist and hair. She was simply rocking in through his open hair.

He just layed her down on the couch ; she was alert but was not in her senses to stop him. He was nuzzling in her hair; how much had he missed her fragrance,he thought. They playfully rubbed their noses and kept their foreheads together looking into each other's eyes as they were seeing through their souls. He was once again moving to her lips, when she called him"Om". He slightly smiled at this. Whenever he was close to her, she calls him like that. He stood up and took her in her arms. He began walking to their room; Gouri thanked the Lord that the hall was empty with no one around.

Their room door was already opened as if welcoming them. He kept her on the bed silently, smirking and went to close the door. As he came back to the bed, he was surprised to see something on his working table. He looked at Gouri ; she smiled at him. It was his painting which was kept in the gallery; he wondered how it reached there.

It was the painting of both of them with a kid in the middle. He doubtfully looked at Gouri and she smiled warmly , nodding her head; he got a spark and suddenly he looked at Gouri once again. She nodded her head positively once again , keeping her hand on her abdomen.

His heart began racing fast; for a second he didn't know what to say. He just ran to Gouri and hugged her. He was crying with happiness. But suddenly he became conscious.
O: when did you know this?
G: mm.... yesterday ( smiling)
O: you called have told me when I called you... ( complaining)
G: no, I wanted to see your reaction. I won't be able to see it through phone..
O: and you allowed me to lean over you in the guest room......( angry)
G: I wanted to stop you, but then my surprise would have broken .
O: but...I didn't see the picture when I came to change my dress..(doubting)
G: I asked Maaji to keep it when you go out from the room.
O: you have become very clever now...
G: because I have little Om with me now, I'm not alone like previous days.. (laughing)

Om was sad; did she feel that she was lonely? He cupped her face.
O: did you feel lonely all these days?
G: bilkul nahi omkaraji....I have all of them with me.
O: but I wasn't there with you...
G: hmmm....ha , I specially missed you when I came to know this. I really wanted your presence that time. My heart was aching with happiness and I really wanted to share it with you at that moment. But it's Ok,  now you are  there with me right?

Om felt tears flowing down; thinking how understanding she was...
O: I promise you Gouri, I am going to take a break from all my works to stay with you now.
G: nahi omkaraji, uski koi zaroorat nahi hai. I know wherever you are , your mind will be always filled with my thoughts.
O: yes, but from now on I will also have my daughter's thoughts too.
G: so you fixed it's daughter?
O: aur nahi toh kya? I want a beautiful chiraiyya like you.
G: with bautiful eyes of yours.... ( smiling)

Both of them couldn't sleep the whole night so they sat on the balcony with Gouri's head on Om's shoulders.

G: tumhe pata? I had dreamt you even before seeing you.. that you were teaching me to draw.
O: mein bhi.
G: how?
O: I had dreamt your face and tried to sketch it too, mainly your eyes...

Gouri smiled hearing this. After all,  their meeting was not at all coincidental; they thought after hearing each other's experience. It was written on their fate by the Lord itself. If not after all these incidents, they wouldn't have been together like this.

Both were lost in each other's wet eyes; neither the moonlight nor the breeze could bring them back because they were so desperately in love with each other. And now someone was coming in to complete their lives...Both of them slept in that position with joined hands dreaming of a beautiful life ahead.......

Gouri's morning began seeing Om with tea cup. She was suddenly confused; usually the scene would be reversed.
O: Gouri , come get ready fast and have your tea. Or would you like to have milk in the morning?
G: ka hua omkaraji, am I a school going kid to drink milk in the morning? (shocked)
O: why only school kids will drink milk? Come on get up.
G: oh, it's already 8 am. Don't you want to go to office?
O: I told you right, I'm going to do work at home from now on. I have told Shivay.
G: hey Sankarji what will bhaiyya do without you? It will be tough for him.
O: just stand up Gouri...come..
G: oho even my aayi & papa hadn't did all this to me.... (irritated)

O: Gouri walk slowly.
G: it's fine for now omkaraji, you have to do all these in coming months only.
O: here is your dress , go and have bath.
G: I will go, I will go.
O: waise Gouri...shall I come with you for helping you out? ( smirking)
G: chi....2 rs wali chirotta...jao yahan se. Ye chirotta ko pagal ho gaya. ( laughing)

Jhanvi saw Om running around happily. She was happy to see him.

O: hai mom, oh...you are going to be a dadi right? So start practicing from now on.

She slapped him on his head.
J: come on Om, are you teasing me?
O: just kidding mom. And what all special food should be given to her? You should take good care of her.
Pin: oye hello, patiji. We all are well experienced in all these OK,
O: oh choti ma, you look too cute when angry...(pulling her cheeks he ran away)
Pi: jethanaji, I think he has become Oh my matha after knowing the good news. ( laughing)

Rudra came running..
R: O, today is my cheat day..
O: but it's not according to your schedule..
R: are you a duffer O? Something big is gonna happen and how can I be in a diet? See anika bhabhi have ordered all these types of sweets and so I'm observing a cheat day.

Anshika was running here and there. She saw her chachi coming down; she just ran and hugged her.
G: hi meri cherry, good morning...
Cher: chulbul chachi how is my honey??
Om: oh so you have already decided name too.
C: ha omkie, she will be honey for me. Just imagine we will have Oberoi sisters moments, but chotu? Ha, it's ok I will add him also. Any way thanks to both of you for giving me this advance gift for my birthday.
G: oh yes, next week is my cherry baby's birthday. We will rock it.
O: no Gouri, you can't rock it. You need to rest. No more craziness allowed, specially that toffee eating. Its dangerous to throw and catch like that. You need to stop it.
G: oh come on omkaraji, you are behaving like my dad.
A: arre chutki, this is the common approach of Obros to their carrying wives. I have had a double doze from shivay for cherry & chotu.
O: ( whispering into Gouri's ears) Gouri you will get a thrible doze OK?

Gouri opened her mouth; Om was winking at her. Gouri thought, "hey Sankarji, what is cooking up in this chirotta's mind??"
