Part 3:
Ishitha broke down saying Adhi feels she is responsible for his broken home. Ishitha is sobbing uncontrollably.
I: Raman, I can never be a mother. I know what it means to have a happy childhood. But how did even Adhi think about me like that. I can never in my dreams also imagine of giving these kinds of pains to anyone in the world and that to, to a child never. I always loved children, but god deprived me of that happiness. I thought I have two children but those words really pierced my heart and I was literally unable to take it. Why does Adhi have so much hatred for me?
Raman pulled her into a hug and slowly slides his hands on her back comforting her. He was wondering what was making his son spill so much of tough words on his wife. How could he even forget that he was still under the influence of his mother? However miserable she could look,she was a snake with so much Venom in her. Was that not sufficient for her to instigate his son against his current wife. How could he ignore that fact. He himself had witness her filling his ears saying this was not his house and they are not his family.
R: Ishitha you are too nave. How can you think that you are responsible for my son's broken home? If he has got that idea it's our responsibility to get him out of that idea. I know that you did that to show him that and give him a reassurance. But this is not the way. And one more thing, you thing Shagun is in a miserable position and hence you are being compassionate to her. She never deserves pity. I know her too well. She must be filling my son's mind with these ideas. She is not worth the compassion that you are showing on her.
I: Raman don't say like that. She is in such a miserable situation. She can't do anything of that sort
Raman thought it was even waste of time to explain anything to his wife. He needed to prove her how bad his ex-wife is to his wife and also to his son and make them realize their mistakes.
R: Ok Ishitha forget it, he is a small boy and he will understand you slowly. Don't worry.
They both retire and Raman was continuously thinking that how come Adhi knew about the ear rings. It must have been Shagun who must have filled his ears. He was determined to protect his wife from the evil eyes of the witch of his life.
It was morning and when he came down he could see Shagun happily sitting and poor Ishitha doing all the work for the house.
R: Shagun what is happening to your job. You did attend an interview. What happened?
S: Oh that raman I ...
R: What happened Shagun tell me
S: I didn't get through Raman
Raman was thinking, how you will get thorough when you have not at all attended the interview., I will arrange
R: Don't worry Shagun
Before even he could complete, Shagun came up and held his hand
S: I know Raman you care so much for me. Are you arranging for a job in your company
R: Removing her hand from his, Shagun I think you have taken the anniversary cake cutting and the gift very seriously. I care for you, but as my son's mother. Not more than that. I have not arranged for a job in my company. I was about to say send me your resume, I will see if we can do something.
Shagun's face fell and Raman was thinking I must pretend as though I have not understood your true intentions. What will you write in your resume plotting against people, playing wicked games, deceiving and cheating people? I am sure it will be at least a week for you to come up with something sensible. Until then my poor innocent Ishitha is saved from your torture.
Meantime the bell rings and Neelu opens the door.
N: Bhiya someone has come for you
Raman goes and receives the packet. He calls out for Ishitha who was innocently working in the kitchen
R: Ishitha this is for you, handing over the packet to her
I:What is this?
R: See it, its our ancestral diamond necklace - blue jacker one of the rarest diamonds which are not available now at all. You were very magnanimous in giving those ancestral ear rings to Shagun for my son's happiness. The ear rings belonged to my love of life and I was very sad that it was given to a women whom I used to love sometime in my life . but the fact that women doesn't have any value in my life and the vows that we took seamed meaningless for me. I couldn't do anything when all the events happened last night, but I could only do this. I got this from mom and have polished the gold part of the whole set.( Now please don't ask me when did he give as it was morning only)
Ishitha was in tears seeing the set and listening to his words
R: May I do the honors
He made her wear the earrings and the necklace and kissed her head saying you are the love of my life Ishitha. Both hugged each other and all the family members clapped for them. Shagun was fuming in anger and was feeling sad that she only got a less worthy earring and Ishitha got something much more valuable that what she got. She felt terrible as her plan backfired.
Part 4:
Shagun is poisoning Adhi saying Ishitha made Raman insult her to say she means nothing to him.
Raman is making Ishitha hear Adhi and Shagun's conversation as he had inserted microphones in both Adhi and Shagun's room.
