Ishita and Raman came back together when Mihika starts shooting questions.
Mihika: Ek saath aa rahe ho? Kaise? I mean jeeju, aap wahan chale gaye ya...
Ishita: Breathe Mihika... Sab kuch bataungi... Raman mere conference mein chief guest bankar aaya aur...
Mihika: wow... Sounds romantic...
Raman leaves Ishita to deal with sister and goes inside.
Ishita: Isme kya romantic hai?
Mihika: You didn't know about this right? Jaate waqt kitna complaint kar rahe the... That's a cool surprise... Jeeju must have done something more...
While Ishita wanted to share everything with her sister but something stopped Ishita.
Ishita: Baad mein bataungi... Ab tired ho gayi main Miku... Andar chale...
Before Ishita could enter the lobby, she heard her cousins who were sounding excited about something.
Krish: Ishu akka enga?
Siddu: Enna news da?
Ishita: What's happening?
But, Ishita got the answer on her own when she saw television. In some local channel, Raman's photo was shown with a headline... "Top CEO confesses that working in a company is like living inside a pressure cooker"... And a reporter was giving her version of her story based on the headlines that working environment in corporate circle is taking toll on employees health,etc...
Ishita: Yeh kya?
Balaji: Wahi toh hum bhi pooch rahe hain? Jeeju ne aisa kyon kaha?
Ishita: Unka yeh matlab thodi tha... Raman...Raman...Neeche aao...
Raman hurriedly comes down.
Raman: Tumhe kya hua? Mere naam ko bech kyon rahi ho?
Ishita pointed towards the television. Raman read the headlines...
Raman: Yeh kya aur Tamil mein kya bad bada rahi hai yeh reporter?
Ishita: For a change, main nahi, voh de rahi hai lecture... Ki companies mein bahut pareshaan karte hain and stuff... aur CEO khud isse maan raha hai.
Raman: Ishita...You know what I meant by that...
Ishita: Maine thodi diya news... Local channel ko kisne bataya hoga?
Raman: I think it belongs to the organizer yaar...Woh Thiagarajan. Iss logo ko uske car mein bhi dekha...
Ishita: Organiser ka channel? Doctor...
Raman: Woh insaan doosron ka daant ugadta hai apne khud ke hospital mein lekin uske ghar mein aur bhi log hai jo business chala rahe hain...
One lady entered their house even without knocking and started calling out for Sowmya chitti.
Lady: Sowmya...Sowmya...TV pattiya. Un Mapillai...
That lady saw Raman before completing the sentence...
Lady: Neenga...TV...Tamil...u know?
Raman: No...Actually...
Lady: I wanted to talk about the same. My son is also working in IT industry and you know...how it is...
Raman: See...Aunty...
Sowmya chitti helped Raman by finally taking that lady out.
Ishita: Maalu aunty...Neighbour...
Raman and Ishita exchanged a look and started laughing...
Siddu: Koi mujhe batao ki yeh kya horaha hai? Jeeju, aapne aisa kyon kaha?
Raman: Teri behen ko patane ke liye...aur kis liye... Ek minute guys, main uss Thaigarajan se baat karta hoon warna pata nahi koun koun aakar khada hoga iss darwaje ke bahaar...
Ishita: Right...
Raman: Hello Mr.Thiagarajan, what's all this?... Still... I have my reputation. Please do it... Fine...
Sowmya: Kya hua Raman?
Raman: Keh raha tha ki yeh baat usse abhi abhi pata chala. Uske channel mein aise har event ko usually dikhate hain...
Ishita: Har event? Lekin yeh...
Raman: Advertisement ke liye obviously karenge... Sponsor kiya tha na... aur jisne yeh report kiya woh facts ko jaane bina aise kar diya... Usse aise hi develop kar diya...
Ishita: Bakwaas...Aise kaise? Matlab, English nahi jaante kya? What were you saying and...
Raman: Ab maaf bhi kar do na... Tumhe company dene ke liye bhagwan ne kuch logon ko banaya hai... Top floor hamesha khaali hi rehta...
Ishita: Rassi jal gayi lekin bal nahi gaya... Itna kuch hogaya lekin attitude dekho... Aapki support kar rahi hoon main yahan aur aap...
Raman: Tumhi ne kaha local channel hai... Hota hai na... Itne saare technicians thodi honge. Assure kar diya ki usse remove kar dega... See, its not coming too...
Mihika: Ek minute... Koi pehle se batao ki yeh kya chakkar hai? Ishu akka ko impress karne ke liye yeh kiya aapne? Kya kiya?
Ishita narrated everything in brief and everyone started laughing...
Krish: Seriously yaar... Kitne paagal hai yeh log...
Raman: Shukar hai local channel hai... Bach gaya... Waise bhi tumhare akka se toh behtar hai... Kam se kam national television pe aakar mere darjiyaan nahi udayi inn logon ne...
Ishita: Kuch bhi...
Balaji: Humne bhi suna uske baare mein...Maanna padega...Bade interesting hai aap dono ke lovestory... Twists and turns...
Raman: Lovestory? Jahan tumhari akka hoti hai na, woh toh sirf horror story hoti hai...
Ishita: Main chudail hoon?
Raman: Maine aisa kuch nahi kaha... Tumhe aisa lag raha hai toh maan loonga...
Ishita: Nonsense... Chalo Mihika...
Raman: Kahaan?
Mihika: Hum sab shopping jaa rahe hain...
Raman: Sab?
Mihika: Main, akka aur Ru...
Balaji: Where?
Mihika: EA... Express Avenue...
Siddu: Formality ke liye bhi hume nahi bulaya...
Ishita: Kyon...taaki aap log taane maar sakhe...
Krish: Kab kya plan karte ho kisiko pata nahi chalta... Hum bhi aa rahe hain...Kyon jeeju?
Raman: Ofcourse...
Ishita gave a astonished look when Ruhi distracted them.
Ruhi: Main toh ready bhi hogayi... Patti ne help kiya. Aap log ab bhi ready nahi hue? Ishima... Jaldi ready ho jao na... Main saree choose karoongi...
Ishita: Aaj suraj pashchim se nikla kya Mihika? Koi Raavan kumar kud kud kiye bina haan keh raha hai...
Raman: Purana joke maarna bandh karo aur jaake tayaar ho jao...
On the way back to their room,
Ishita: Raman... On a serious note, uss news ke wajah se problem nahi hoga na?
Raman: Come on yaar... Koi kuch bhi bad bad karega aur mujhe problem hoga... Chill... Pata chala ki duniya mein rumours kaise aate hain... One more thing Ishita... Mihika ke saath akele baat mat karo. Main bhi baat karoonga usse...
Ishita: Toh samaj gaya ki yeh plan uss liye hai...
Raman: Tumhe mujhse behtar koi samaj saktha kya?
Ishita: Actually...pehle maine socha Mihir ko baat karna chahiye lekin phir laga yeh sahi nahi hoga. Mihika ko jaante ho na...woh bolti pehle sochti baad mein. So...I thought this would be fine. Usse pehle Mihir se bhi baat karna chahiye.
Raman: I'll do that...Jaake ready ho jao warna dadimaa aake dono ki class legi... Bilkul me pe gayi hai...
Ishita: Khadoos papa se toh behtar hai... Waise, jayenge kaise?
Raman: Tumhari aadat bhi na... Kitne saare sawaal. Arrange kar diya...cab. Ab please jao yaar... (In a low choice) Aisi gum kharidni chahiye jisse iski dono lips chipak jaaye...
Ishita: Suna maine...
Raman: (In a low choice) Isiliye toh bola...
In Ishita and Raman's room,
Raman: Kabhi kabhi Ruhi se jalan hota hai...
Ishita: Kyon?
Raman: Kitna pyaar karti ho Ishita... Woh jo bologi wahi karti ho... Jo chahegi wahi hota hai... She wanted you to wear this saree and you did that...
Ishita: Kya bol rahe ho?
Raman: Seriously Ishita... Thoda jalan ho hi raha hai... Utna pyaar kisise nahi kar paogi jitna Ruhi se karti ho... Case ke waqt mujhe chod diya lekin Ruhi ko lekar insecure ho rahi thi...
Ishita: Chale...Late ho raha hai...
After getting ready, Raman asked Ishita's cousins to take Ruhi in a car and took the other car with Ishita and Mihika...
Ishita: Mihika... Hum dono ko tumse kuch baat karni hai... Bahut important hai yeh baat... And one more thing...Listen to the full story and then react...
Mihika: Ok...
Raman: Baat yeh hai ki tumhare Mihir ka ek family hai. Ek sister aur mother...
Mihika: What? He's my fianc jeeju. He has hidden this from me?
Raman: Mihika...jaise Ishita ne kaha, poore baat ko suno... Agar yeh rishte bolne laayak hote toh Mihir khud bata deta. Actually, he has disowned his family...kyonki uski behen hai Shagun Arora... my ex-wife... (Ignoring Mihika's astomished look) aur ma... Ma toh... Actually beti ma pe gayi hai. His mother was happy with Shagun's decision. Ab akele rehti hai woh aurat... Like Shagun, she's not concerned about her kids and their life. Self-centered hai... Mihir doesn't have any link with these ppl Mihika. Infact, humare divorce ke waqt...mujhe hi support kiya. Mere bhai se badkar hai mera Mihir. Hamesha sach ka saath diya Mihika.
Mihika: Jeeju...hum dono ek doosre ko do saal se jaante hain... We are going to get married. Mujhe iss baat se jyada farak nahi pad raha hai... Haan, shock laga lekin usse jyada shock isliye horaha hai kyonki Mihir ne yeh baat chupaya...
Ishita: Uska chupaane ka koi iraada nahi hoga. Jab yeh rishtha exist nahi karta toh usse unimportant sochkar chod diya hoga. Mihir is a gem Mihika.
Mihika: Phir bhi... Main usse pyaar karti hoon... Lekin akka, woh bhi mujhse utna pyaar nahi karta...Agar karta toh isse...
Ishita: Stop it Mihika... Kaisi baat kar rahi ho? Acha hua Mihir ne yeh baat tumhe nahi bataya... Pyaar koi cheez nahi jisse measure kar diya jaaye. (Eyeing Raman) Pyaar toh pyaar hai. Jyada pyaar, kam pyaar nahi hota iss duniya mein. Don't behave like a child... Think rationally. Tumhe chitti ko convince karna hoga. Shayad chitti ko yeh baat pasand nahi hoga ki Shagun usse related hai aur thatha... You know how it is. Aur...Mihir se bhi baat karo. He was really tensed about breaking this news to you.
Mihika: Teek hai...
Mihika called Mihir and they got engrossed in their own world with their cute banters. Meanwhile, another couple got busy too...
Raman: Mere liye tha pyaar ka lecture...
Ishita: Kounsi?
Raman: Naatak mat karo...Lekin, pata nahi aise kyon bola? Ishita, I'm not...
Ishita: I know that you are not exactly jealous... Matlab, aisa hota hai Raman. Bachpan mein aise hi ti main. I wanted appa to love me the most...than Vandu akka and amma. Sounds silly...but it was true. In your case, if I'm right, you had to love Shagun but you never got any in return. Uske baad...itne saare drama. Its natural... But believe me... pyaar toh mein dono se karti hoon but jataane ka tareeka alag hai. Bachi hai Ruhi...
Raman: Ek baat hai Ishita... Bi-polar disorder ki bimaari mujhe hai tujhe hua hai...
Ishita: Subah wali comment ke liye ab taane maar rahe ho...
Raman: Mauka nahi mila na... Lekin socho, kabhi kabhi itne samajdaar baatein aur kabhi kabhi bachkaani harkat... Car mein tumhari behen ke saamne haath aise pakad rakhi ho...
Ishita realized that she has been holding Raman's hands and left them quickly.
After reaching Express Avenue,
Ruhi: Ishima...Wahan dekho...Tattoo... Muje bhi karvaana... Barbie wala...
Ishita: Kya? No Ru...Dard hoga... Bache thodi karte hain yeh sab...
Ruhi: (With a sad face) Ok...
Ishita: Hum temperory wala lagate hain... Permanent nahi...Ok? Dard bhi nahi hoga...
Ruhi: Wow...I love you Ishima... Barbie wala...
Ishita: Jo aapko chahiye voh lagayenge... Chalo...Mihika...Yeh ladke log kahan hai?
Mihika: Neeche food court mein bait gayi...
Ishita: Bhukkad log hai...
Ishita asked the lady in the shop to put a tattoo when Ruhi started firing a new set of questions.
Ruhi: Ishima...Aap papa ke naam ka tattoo karvalo... Chachi bhi chachu ke naam ka karva rahi hai...
Mihika: Nice idea...
Raman: Bilkul nahi... Ru, tum kya kar rahi ho?
Ishita: Raman...Temperory tattoo hai...
Mihika: Jeeju. Aisa kyon keh rahe ho?
Raman: Dard hota hai Mihika... Ek suyi chubna itna dard deta toh yeh...
Mihika: It's a symbol of love jeeju...
Raman: Aisa kuch nahi... Dard dena kounsi symbol hai pyaar ka?
Mihika: Lekin akka ko toh pasand tha... You remember the previous time akka?
Ishita: Haan... Yaad hai...
Ishita wanted to stop Mihika there but inadvertently Mihika spilled the beans...
Mihika: Aap toh Subbu ka naam...
Mihika immediately bit her tongue for taking that name and stopped there...
Ishita: Lekin kiya nahi...It was just...
Raman: (With a sulky face) Actually main tum logon ko bulaane ke liye aaya...Food court mein. I'll wait there... Jo karna hai khatam karke aa jao...
With that, Raman left that place swiftly.
Mihika: Sorry akka...
Ishita: Kya Miku?
Mihika: Lekin aisi reaction maine expect nahi kiya... Uncomfortable hona toh banta hai lekin jeeju ka face... I mean itna restless hogaya na...
Ishita: Woh toh hai thoda...nahi bahut jyada possessive hai yeh banda...
Mihika: Hamesha aise hi react karta tha kya?
Ishita: Hamesha kahan... I have never discussed about Subbu with him Miku... Yahaan aane ke baad hi iss Raman ka nazaara dekhne ko mil raha hai... Cute na...
Mihika: Lekin akka...
Ishita: Chill yaar... Main sambhalungi...
Ruhi: Ishima...Over...
Ishita: Very nice... Chalo...
After joining others, Ishita tried her level best to lift Raman's mood but she couldn't succeed. Finally, she managed to take a seat next to Raman after creating lots of distractions. In the food court,
Ishita: Raman...Are you ok?
Raman: Ofcourse I am...
Ishita: Lekin yeh jalne ki boo jo hai na, mujhe chain se baitne nahi de raha hai... Upar se mere hot hubby... Global warming ka issue already bade khatarnak ho raha hai humankind ke liye...
A small smile escaped from Raman's lips...
Raman: Mujhe jalan kyon hoga?
Ishita: Woh bhi hai lekin ek baat bataani hai...
Raman: What?
Ishita: I love you... Raman, I can't erase the pages of my past but its just my past Raman... Main kabhi uss insaan se pyaar karti thi lekin woh toh sacha bhi nahi nikla... Ultimate sach yeh hai ki main aapse pyaar karti hoon... Itna bhi jealous mat feel karo...
Raman: Really? Woh sab chodo...Mujhe tumse kuch poochna tha.. Aaj subah phone rakhne se pehle kaha ki tum baad mein niptogi... Kaise?
Ishita: Bachi saamne baiti hai... Sharam karo...
Raman: Arey...Main aise hi pooch raha tha... Gandagi tumhare dimaag mein hai...
Ishita: Teek hai... Toh mujhse door hi raho...
