All these months were loaded with happiness in OM, with the good news of Gouri's and Priyanka's pregnancy. Prinku's Godh Bharai was done and she was staying in OM. But this never made any loss in the care which Gouri received from the family, specially Jhanvi. After few more months, Gouri was supposed to go back to her family, till then Jhanvi wanted to take care of her daughter in law by herself. She had taken a break from her business to take care of both her daughters.

Each of the members took care of Gouri in their own way; cherry and chotu were always sticking on to their chulbul chachi, talking to her and their honey.

For Om, she was like a kid. It seems he have given a pause to both his office works and art. He did casual works only, without taking any heavy orders or exhibitions. He took so much time to teach art to Gouri , in this state as he wanted the baby to start hearing all the lessons of art in this stage itself.

The arrival of the baby had made the father - son bond more stronger because Tej was so much excited to become a grand pa and started supporting and loving Rikara a lot. Tej and Gouri too shared a warm bond as he began taking Gouri to the checkups whenever Om will not be around. Even if Om would take her, he would insist on going along with them as he wanted the Oberoi child to be safe.

A fine evening. Om and Gouri were in there room. Om was oiling her hair. She didn't want him to do it initially, but couldn't reject his order. To be honest, she was feeling relaxed with the songs playing on a low volume in the room. She was humming along with the record.

"I want to fly!!!!" came out the sudden wish of Gouri.
Of course Om was puzzled hearing this.
O: Gouri, what did you say?
G: haan Omkaraji I want to fly!!!?
O: do you want to do gliding in this stage? (laughing)

G: arey, I've travelled in flight. But...but I want to see the sky very near and feel it....that's all...
O: hmm.... usually in this stage women would want to have something, they crave for some food. You are the first person to have such a strange wish, ajeeb hai....
G: nahi nahi, I had this wish from a long time , but I was so scared. Do you know, I wanted to be a pilot when I was small. I wanted to travel through the sky, seeing the clouds so close , to move along with birds( she started showing actions)

O: then what happened?
G: you know Omkaraji, about how my studies got stopped in between. Not only that, my best friend Archiya's elder sister had died in a plane crash. From then on, whenever I think about my wish I feel fear gripping on my mind....
O: so now...

G: now...now I don't know as soon my honey came to me , I feel my old wish coming back . But I'm still afraid, I still have a fear in my mind. This time if something bad happens it will affect my honey like last time....( remembering past incidents)
O: hey this is too bad, my dabbang Gouri is crying for a very silly matter. This doesn't match for you. Beta honey, did you see your mom crying?Tell her that its too bad.

He hugged Gouri tightly consoling her, assuring his support to her. She was slowly calmed down by his warm hug....

2 days later, Rikar had gone out for some random shopping. He took special care of her so that she doesn't get exhausted .She had a nice time enjoying and chilling around with him.

As the shopping finished, they headed back to the car and began moving. But Om was taking a different route which Gouri didn't notice as she was dozing off. She had opened her eyes by hearing the sound of car horn. Om was still driving but it was a different place, sort of a farm house. She hadn't seen this till now, she wondered.

G: which is this place Omkaraji, why did we come here?
O: chup chap mere saath aayiyena.

He slowly took Gouri to a big barren land behind the farm house. Few security guards were also there.
G: Omkaraji.....
O: Gouri , just see that....

He turned her to left side and she was shocked seeing a hot air balloon. It was so huge and stood there slowly waving to both sides according to the wind.

G: ye sab kyaa hai..... (surprised)

He simply smiled and took her near it.
They climbed the basket below the balloon and stood on it.

Gouri was so shocked, but still she was excited. Her heart beats were raising.

O: so Gouri, ready steady go.....

He turned on the burner, the balloon got heated and they began moving up slowly, in accordance with the gentle wind.

Gouri closed her eyes tightly not able to hold the excitement, very nervous about moving upwards; after one brief minute she slowly opened her eyes, to enjoy the beautiful sky. The sun was so mild as it was a gentle evening.

The cold wind was touching her cheeks and blowing her hair. She was feeling the sky by slowly moving forward her hand. She was so excited.

As she turned to see Om, he was so lost in her instead of enjoying the ride. Gouri wanted to tease him. She slowly moved towards his face, stood in her legs to peck on his cheeks. Om slowly closed his eyes , waiting for it but instead received a small pinch from her. He was shocked.
O: hey pagli, tum bhi na....

Gouri started laughing, clapping her hands. She began singing, "Aaj main upar, aasman neeche.."
Om also sang along with her and had a gala time. They were moving slowly, being under security of the guards on ground.

Om slowly took a box of gol gappas and showed it to her. She squealed with happiness on seeing them and snatched the box. She took one and was about to have it when she saw Om standing with a puppy face.

G: sorry meri Nandi Bel....here take this.

Om was still angry on her for calling him Nandi. He turned away from her, with an angry face.

G: Om..... idhar dekhona...(softly)

He felt happy on hearing Om from her mouth. He turned back and she gave him half of the gol gappa before eating for herself.

Om stopped her from having more , she pouted when he took back the box from her. He slowly pulled her towards him .
O: Gouri, do you still feel fear when flying in this height?
G:( smiling) bilkul nahi....
O: kyun???
G: kyunki...kyunki....tum he na meri saath!!!!

Om's heart raced fastly on hearing this. He slowly turned her to face him and both were seemingly lost in the depth of love in their eyes. Gouri slowly gave a kiss on his cheek, which Om also returned to her.

It was one of the most loveliest moments in their life. They shared a warm hug,in that soft wind completing each other in their life. Yes, they were inseparables....

Precap:-why did Om call Shivay at night???

Hi all, hope you loved the sky ride. Please do vote....
