Hi all, Here is my try at writing something that I really wish to see soon...
So it's been a tough day for Raman and Ishu - Raman has got Sarika to confess and speak up the truth - Raman's family is shattered. Simmi and Toshi are the worst affected. The had blindly trusted Param and the shock was too much. They also regret not believing Ishita - Its a turmoil of emotions. Ishita is just happy that Parmeet can no longer harm the family and she hopes the law gives him the right punishment. She feels sorry for Simmi and her baby. It's been a rough day - Raman wants to tell Ishu to stay back at the Bhalla house but he hesitates - He's not sure how to bring that up and thinks that he'll talk to her the next day. Ishita says she's tired and goes back to the Iyers.
There, Ishu is unable to fall asleep ...She's lying next to Ruhi who is sound asleep - She looks at sleeping Ruhi and smiles ..how much she means to her ...Unable to sleep, Ishu decides to get some fresh air and goes up to the terrace ...
Meanwhile Raman is unable to fall asleep too. He thinks about all the harsh words his mother said to Ishita and thinks how sad he must be ...How he has missed her ...How she came into his life to be a mother to Ruhi but how she fully well was a wife to him ...including taking care of his clothes ...She had gone just a couple days and none of his shirts were laundered...Infact he couldn't find a night shirt and was lying down shirtless ...His mind was in a turmoil and he decided to get some air too .He found a shawl to cover himself up and headed to the terrace while the rest of his family was sleeping ...
Raman reaches up to the terrace and finds Ishu there ...His heart skips a beat but he doesn't want to approach her ...He stands out of her sight and Ishu doesn't take notice ..tho she senses something in the breeze the moment he enters ..She looks around but no one's there ...Ishu thinks about her life until today ..Raman is looking straight at her but she has her back turned toward him ...He thinks about all the things she said about Parmeet and what he had tried doing with her ...He grits his teeth and gets angry thinking about Parmeet...
Ishu is lost in Raman's thoughts ...the fights they've had..and then all the times he's made her heart warm ..the tamil speech ..how he finally stood up for her with regards to parmeet ...the hug on the rainy day even if it was for Ruhi ...She was so confused and started crying very hard all of a sudden ...There was so much peace and no one around ..that she just had to let it go...all her pent up tears were flowing and she was shivering .. ...Raman couldn't take her tears any more ..He didn't hesitate this time ..He couldn't see her cry..
He ran to Ishu ...Ishu looked at him and wiped her tears ..."Raman ..." she said .He put his finger on her lip and calmed her ..He saw her shivering and took her inside his shawl and embraced her in a tight tight hug ...Ishu could feel his bare chest against hers ..She didn't know whether to let in or push him away ..but she needed that warm hug ...She hugged him back ...The hug couldn't get tighter ..The shawl fell off as Raman cupped Ishu's face in his palms and placed his lips on hers ...They kissed and hugged and smiled.. He said "I love you, Ishita" ..Ishu said "I love you too, Raman" ..And they slept together that night under the stars and the moon ...
