Hello People. Here's a TS based on the current track. Again, this comes from breaking my head in frustruation with the way things are being handled on the show. But having said that ,I am still immensely thankful to the CVs for introducing this Haddi wala romance track, without which I wouldn't be writing this at all.Lastly , we all owe it to the amazing chemistry of DivAn, which makes every story on this forum worth reading. Enough of ranting.
Here goes :
This story picks up from the scene where Raman tries to get close to Ishita in their room after those text messages and she shies away with her clichd bunch of excuses.
Part -1
Raman watched her rertreating back as she made her way out of the room. He called out to her. "Ishita , jitna nakhre karna hai tumhe ..karlo.. par sirf aaj raat tak. I am going to make this night very special for both of us."
She placed her index finger on her lips, gesturing him to shut up and left with a coy smile.
He immediately closed the door and locked it , not wanting to be disturbed while he worked on the arrangements to make the night special, as promised to her. He ordered for everything , right from Chocolates to Champagne (non- alcoholic ofcourse) to scented candles to flowers (her favourite of course) , CD of soft instrumental music of romantic tracks (her favourites ofcourse) and arranged for everything to be delivered to Mr. Mihir Arora who was right now working his ass off in their office.
He felt a little guilty at thought of Mihir slogging in office handling some of his important client meetings , while he was at home relaxing with his family and making plans for a special night with his wife. But then he deserved this break, he tried to reassure himself. He had landed back from US just yesterday , and after the whole cupboard fiasco and cupboard confession , his Madrasan had forced him to sleep saying he was jetlagged and tired.And he had complied half heartedly. And since morning , they have all been busy making arrangements for tonight's grand dinner with Subbu and family and of course for the upcoming engagement. Before it became a full fledged shaadi wala ghar he wanted his time with Ishita. He quickly dialled Mihir's number and asked for a huge favour. Mihir is to receive all the stuff that he had ordered, which should be reaching their office in a couple of hours time and bring it to Raman personally and also help him sneak the stuff to his bedroom. The sweetheart that Mihir is ,he readily agreed. He didn't want any random deliver guy to deliver all the stuff to an unsuspecting family member .
Satisfied with his plan , he leaned back on the bed and closed his eyes, thinking how to initiate things with Ishita. His JKR is definitely not going to be easy to handle. Toshi's loud voice brought him out of his thoughts.
"Oye.. Khoteya !! Bahar aaja.. dekh kaun aaya hai "
His Mama ji was being warmly hugged by his mom and they were surrounderd by all the family members when he stepped into the living room . He greeted Mama ji and as usual his Mama ji launched into his tale of wooes about everything from Dilli's garami , pains of travelling all the way from their Pindh , his back pain etc etc. Amidst laughter and interesting Pindh stories , refreshments and food was served. He sat through everything , stealing glances at Ishita from time to time. She wouldn't hold eye contact for long, sometime blushing and looking away and sometimes too conscious of the people around. Everthing was going good till the conversation turned to sleeping arrangements.
"Oye .. Raman ..Tere Mamaji ke liye tera kamra hi theek rahega " It wasn't a request or a question. It was a declaration by his mom.
"Mama ji toh hall main so sakte hai" , he panicked and blurted out. Ishita cringed.
He quickly corrected himself "Mera matlab hai.. woh humare room ka AC theek se kaam nahi kar raha..kabhi chaltha hai aur kabhi bandh padta hai.. aur Mama ji ko toh garmi bilkul bardaasht nahi hota .. Hall mein toh AC ka koyi problem hi nahi hai.. " He looked at Ishita for some sort of support but none came. She pretended to be busy with something.
"Chal koyi nayi. Puttar... Main hall mein hi so jaata hoon. Garmi toh mujhe bilkul bardasht nahi hota." Mama ji was happy to comply.
Raman breathed a sigh of relief and congratulated himself for averting a tragedy. He gave a wicked smile to Ishita and she rolled her eyes. He got up from his seat at the dining table and walked over to where she was standing on the pretext of getting a glass of water. While he filled the glass he leaned a little closer to her and whispered "kuch bol nahi sakti thi tum? Waise toh badi Jhaansi Ki Rani banne ka shauk hai na? our home territory was being evaded and you did nothing??" . She moved away sayin "Main kaise.?? Kuch bhi...".
Minutes later ,disaster struck again in the form of his cousin Raj and his nayi naveli dulhan Simran. The same scene played out in front of his eyes. Warm jhappis, pindh stories,refreshments, food and this time even a tour of the house as it was the couple's first time visit. Raman's mind raced because he knew what was coming next. Skies turned dark , slow rumbling sound of the approaching army and then war cry !!! " Raman Puttar, ab in dono ke rahne ka kuch toh bando bast karna padega..Tere kamre ka AC kaam nahi kar raha hai na.. toh kya karen?.". Toshi voiced her concern.
And then , the unexpected happened. He could understand an enemy back stabbing .. but this..
"Mummy ji.. lekin Simran mujhe bata rahi thi ki.. usko AC ki bilkul adat nahi hai." Ishita happily supplied but when she saw Raman's face she realized it was a major slip of tounge.
"Accha ?? chalo shukar ha rab ka.. yeh dono phir wahi rahenge.. " Toshi ji sounded relieved.
Raman's expression continued to scare her, his eyes were boring into hers drilling holes into her head.
The final blow came from Toshi . "Accha Ishita..woh Raman ke aur ek cousin hai Rahul Amritsar se.. Rahul aur uski wife Anjali.. woh dono shaam tak pohonch jaayenge. Main subah se unka phone try kar rahi hoon.. lag nahi raha hai.. toh puttar main soch rahi thi..kya undono ko tumhare Amma ke ghar main accommodate kar sakte hai ? ..woh Madrasan(Madhavi) ko koyi pareshani toh nahi hogi.. ?
"Arre nayi Mummy ji. Yeh bhi koyi poochne wali baat hai ? Woh log araam se wahan reh sakte hai.Main abhi Amma ko bol ke room ready karvati hoon.. waise bhi mera kamra wahan koyi use nahi karta"
Raman didn't know who to strangle.. his mother or his wife as he watched his Plan B being flushed into the drain. And to think he prided himself for being an ace business man..Planning , strategy , foresight..wasn't this his forte ??? A load of bullshit !
But he was a fighter... "Maa.. Mihir ne hotels main bhi booking kee hai.. sab log wahan par bhi araam se reh sakte hai.. infact Raj aur Simran bhi wahan pe zyada comfortable feel karenge"
"Oye Khoteya.. baaki mehmanon ki tarah nahi yeh.. Raj aur Rahul.. hamare apne hai.. hotel main kyun rahenge jab hamara ghar hai toh..Ishita.. tu samjha isse aur pls zara tumhara karma theek karva lo Raj aur Simran ke liye". Saying his mom walked off.
He glared at Ishita almost challenging her to speak.And she did.. "Raman..Mummy ji theekh hi toh keh rahi hai.. aap ke bhayi hai woh dono.. accha nayi lagta na.. hotel main " . He caught her hand roughly and dragged her to their room, closing the door and bolting it once they were inside.
He thundered " TUMHARA DIMAAG KHARAB HOGAYA HAI KYA??? Main yahan situation sambhal ne ki koshishi kar raha hoon aur tum ho ki bigaadti jaa rahi ho!!!
She felt her own temper rising now. "Raman aap itna gussa kyun kar rahe hai? Aap ke family hai woh..unke liye HUM adjust nahi karenge toh aur kaun kareng ??"
"Aur main kaun hoon tumhara? Abhi thodi der pehle humari kyaa baat hui thi? I told you I want to make this night special for both of us.What about that ? Uski tumhe koyi parva nahi hai. ?
Her tone softened now " Aisa nahi hai Raman.. Main kaise bolun sab ke samne ki.. is wajah se...aap samajhte kyun nahi?"
"Wahi toh.. tumhe mooh khol na hi nahi chahiye tha.. Main situation sambhal raha tha..Par nahi.. tumhe toh mahan ban ne ka shauk hai.. daan kar diya apna karma !! Ishita mujhe tum pe itna gussa aaraha hai !!"
"Haan toh isme kaun si nayi baat hai.. gussa karo aur chillaon mujpe.. yehi toh aata hai aapko"
Her words stung a little and he mellowed down. He moved closer to her and held her face. "Aur bhi bohat kuch aata hai.. tum mauka toh do.. abhi bhi situation sambhal sakta hai.Raj aur Simran ko yehi rehne dete hai..par Rahul aur Anjali .. they haven't even reached.we can have them stay at the hotel and we will crash at your place tonight..in your room..tum chalogi mere saath..? Maa se main baat karoonga." He looked at her expectantly like a kid asking for chocolate.
She moved his hands away. "No Raman please ! its not right.Humari Simmi ki shaadi hai.. aur yeh log itne door see aaye hai.. hamari khushi main shaamil hone.. Mummy ji ko bohat bura lage ga.. aur kitne embarrassing hai Raman aise kamre ke liye zidd kar na.. aap ko kya lagta hai.. sab ko baat samjh nahi aayenge ..ke hum log aisa kyu kar rahe hai.. no..its very embarrassing."
His temper flared up again. He caught her hand roughly and pulled her to him. "Kya EMBARASSING hai??? The fact that I am DYING TO MAKE LOVE TO YOU .. yeh embarrassing hai tumhare liye ??"
They were in the middle of a heated argument , but his statement stumped her. His open declaration of his intense desire to make love to her, his passionate gaze , his warm breath on her.. it was like a heady drug . Her cheeks colored ,her eyes sparkled and she almost smiled losing herself in his eyes.
He spoke up, his voice husky "abhi tum apna chehra dhekho aayine main.. you want this as much as I do." His arms gripped her waist tightly, then what is the problem Ishita?"
She came out of her trance like state "I am not denying it Raman.. all I am saying is its not the right time yeh abh ek shaadi wala ghar hai.. mehmaan aate jate rahenge. Hume adjust karna padega.. "
He let go off her waist roughly. "Toh.tumhara matlab hai.. mehmaan aate jaate rahenge.aur tum hamara kamra daan karti rahogi.. right ?"
She chose to remain silent .. tired of arguing.
"I am going to ask you one last time. Are you coming with me right now to speak to Maa.? You don't have to say a word. I will do the talking.. or better still you don't have to come at all. I will go and talk to her."
"No Raman.. you are not going to do anything like that ."she said curtly.
"Theekh hai.. Madrasan.. ab tum meri baat bhi sun lo..aaj subah subha.. main jab tumhare pass aane ki koshish kar raha tha.. tab yaad hai tum ne kya kaha tha?"
"Kya?"
"Din dahade?, darwaza khula hai Raman.. Bachche aajayenge" He mimicked her .
"Haan Toh ??"
"Ab dekho tum.. din dahade , khule aaam, sab ke samne chedoonga tumhe.. na jagah ki parva karoonga aur na logon ki !!"
She was taken aback. "Aap aisa kuch nahi karenge Raman.. bol rahi hoon main!"
"Accha.. TRY ME.. Ishita main.." Toshi's voice interrupted him.
"Ishitaaa.. hogaya tayyar room.. bulaaon main Raj aur Simran ko?" Toshi s voice came from the other side of the room.
"Haan Mummy ji bas ho hi gaya.. bus 2 min.. aarahi hoo main"
She looked him in the eye and warned him "Raman don't you dare.." She even pointed her finger at him.
If her leg had completely healed she would have stormed out of the room. But unfortunately she couldn't .So she took slow but steady steps towards the door. When she reached up to unbolt the door, his hand clasped her hand firmly bringing it down.
"Haath chodo"
"Tum ne suna nahi.. main abhi kya kaha.. sabke samne tang karoonga tumhe."
Toshi's voice interrupted them again from the other side of the door. "Ho gaya Ishita puttar?"
She opened her mouth , but before she could say anything , his lips crashed onto hers and she lost her senses. his hands went around her waist ..moved all over her back feeling and squeezing..his lips sucking and biting her lower lip..after a few seconds.. he moved his lips down to her neck , kissing and nibbling.. before she could open her mouth again to answer his mother.. he clamped his hand over her mouth ..and spoke loudly so that his mother can hear him clearly "Ishita itna kyun chipak rahi ho yaar..Maa aarahi hai woh.. " Her eyes grew wide in shock and she struggled against him trying to take get his hand off her mouth. " He went back to kissing her neck.In between kisses...she heard him. Say "yeh toh...sirf...sample...hai...aage aage.. dekho.. main kya... karta hoon.. " He let go off her completely and unbolted the door ."Maa.. aapki bahu bohat chipku hai.. jab se US se wapas aaya hoon ..chod hi nahi rahi hai mujhe.." He said that and walked off leaving her red faced. She turned around , wishing the earth would split open and swallow her up..Toshi ji looked at her and smiled seeing her disheveled appearance which she was trying hard to fix.
"Sorry Puttar .. mujhe pata hai.. tum do no ko yeh waqt saath guzarna chahiye..par yeh log humare apne hai.. " Toshi ji said apologetically.
"Mummy ji asia kuch bhi nahi hai !Raman ko maza ata hai mujhe tang karne main."she stuttered.
"Main abhi Raj aur Simran ko bula ke laati hoon" .Toshi ji turned around to shout out to Raj.
She couldn't BELIEVE his guts. She tried to calm down taking deep breaths , her lips and her body tingled from his sweet torture. She stll felt his hands roaming over her back. Ishita Bhalla Iyer was ANGRY and TURNED ON.She stepped out of her room and went downstairs. There he was sitting calmly reading the newspaper.. he looked at her and winked. !
