They walked almost 3 kilometers and their legs were aching. There was no hotel in sight. He couldn't bear to see her pain. It occurred to him that he could walk few more and see if there is a hotel but he didn't want to leave her by the side of the road.
"Raman-I can't walk anymore"- she protested to him proceeded to sit on a bench on the side of the road.
"Let's try for a little while longer Ishu. We can't stay on the road all night"-he tried to sound encouraging in an effort to give her strength. He made a silent prayer and begged god that there be a hotel near by as he cannot see Ishu in pain and he is in pain as well.
He held his hand out to her asking her to get up. "What? Are you going to carry me now?"-she asked him.
"No, my arms are not made to carry moti people like you" he retorted back to her.
He held her hand and they started walking hand in hand and eventually found lights and it ended up being a hotel. Both of them were very happy that they found something and started to walk faster and it started pouring and lightning. He held her hand again and they ran as fast as they could to the hotel. Both of them were soaked by the time they made it to the hotel and they eventually checked in and made it to their room.
Ishita was shivering. Raman went into the bathroom and found 2 bathrobes. He gave Ishita the bathrobe and told her to change into it so that she could leave her dress to dry. Ishita went into the bathroom and changed into the bathrobe and Raman changed into the bathrobe as well. He also ordered room service for both of them. Ishita walked out of the bathroom and jumped on to the bed.
Raman: Oye Jhansi ki Rani. Dry your hair first otherwise you are going to catch a cold and you are very prone to colds in the first place. And also I ordered food so don't fall asleep just yet.
Ishita: Raman, I am tired. My legs hurts and my head hurts and my whole body is pain. I don't care about getting a cold or food right now. Saying so attempts to lay down on bed
Raman forces her to sit up and sits on his knees behind her back.
Raman: Paagal, I don't want you get sick or even get pneumonia. And Why do you always tie your hair like this. You look beautiful when you leave it down. Saying so he unties her hair and grabs towel and starts drying her hair.
He noticed Ishita was rubbing the back of her neck and trying to reach her shoulder.
Raman: What happened to your neck?
Ishita: It's hurting me. It's very stiff and not able to move it.
He told her to hold on and went downstairs and came back with a balm and warm oil and sat behind her again.
He sat behind her again pushed the hair towards her front and started massaging her neck and shoulder. His hands on her body felt warm and soothing. She could feel the pain and stress leaving her body. He pressed hard on her shoulder and neck and asked her if the pressure is ok and she nodded yes. Secretly she was in heaven and wished this moment would never stop. He reached to hair and started massaging her scalp and her temple. He put some pressure and pressed both of his palms against her scalp and temple back and forth.
Ishita: Thanks Raman. The pain is so much bearable now.
Raman: What's the need for thanks Ishu? I planned this trip so that you could relax in the spa but I messed up so I feel guilty. The least I could do is help with your pain.
Ishita turned towards him and held his hand "No need to feel guilty Raman. Life will be boring if it goes as we planned. This will be that adventurous story we tell everyone down the road. You took the time and thought to plan it out for me and that's what matters. Other than that as long as we are in it together I can even live in a hut and I will be ok with it.
He brought his head closer to her forehead and rest it there-"You amaze me Ishita. I was completely wrong about you when I met you. You are the most understanding caring person and I couldn't have married a better person than you. I love you Ishita.
Saying so he hugs and they sit in embrace of each other until they hear a knock on the door.
Raman gets off from the bed and opens the door and it is their food. Raman goes into the restroom and Ishita sat at the table and was flipping through the channels and ends up in the section for adult channels. She kept on changing the channel and one adult channel after the other kept popping up. Raman walked out of the restroom and Ishita's heart stopped. Raman walked out of the restroom and looks at the TV and looks at Ishita
Raman: Chi what the hell are you watching?
Ishita: Ayyo, I am not trying to watch this. I was flipping through the channels and don't know how I ended up here and I cant get out.
Raman: yeah yeah yeah you don't have to lie. I can go out the room so that you can watch. I don't mean to disturb you.
Ishita hits him on the shoulder.
Ishita: Shut up. Change the channel
She hands him the remote. Raman shakes his hand with a naughty smile on his face-"If you want to watch one together I don't mind.
Ishita: Raman, shut up and change the channel before I stab you with this fork and come eat.
Raman laughs at his wife's threats and changes the channel to friends and comes and sits at the table and both of them eat.
She asks him how his back is considering her has driven for so many hours. He says it is sore but nothing they can do about it since he forget his meds so he will just bear with it. They finish eating and wash their hands and settle in on the bed.
Raman laid down the bed with the remote on his hand and changed it to sports channel.
Ishita: You can't forget your sports even when you are lost in the middle of nowhere.
She sat on the bed next to him.
Raman: and you can't stop nagging me about it in the middle of nowhere.
Ishita: Ravan Kumar kahin ka. Anyways lay down on your stomach.
Raman: Kyun?
Ishita: you have back pain and it's going to get worse and you have to drive tomorrow too. So I am going to apply balm and oil and you can get some good night sleep.
He partially removed his bathrobe and laid down on his stomach. She climbed on top of him and took some balm in her hand and started kneading on his back with her hands back and forth. She used lot of pressure as she could feel the knots on his back. Raman felt like he was in heaven at that moment. He was tired and exhausted and in pain and all those went away with the touch of her hands.
"Thank you. It feels good. To be honest I was in lot of pain but I didn't know what I could do about it" he gratefully told her.
Ishita- you are welcome. I knew you will just keep it to yourself and wont tell anyone. Anyways, how far is the resort from here, did you find out?
There was no response.
Ishita: Raman?
She didn't hear a response again so she moved to the side to see what he was doing and saw him sleeping like a baby. She couldn't get enough of her peaceful he looks sleeping like that. She gave him a peck and pulled the sheet over him and settled in next to him on the bed.
