Mr bhalla- he is fine now.sleeping. actually when we landed here,he was shivering with fever.we took him to doctor. He gave him medicine .now he is sleeping.may be the weather didn't suit him.
Toshi ji- not weather but this separation from ishu didn't suit him.take care of him bhalla ji and if he didn't recover,take him back.I want my child back safe and sound.
Mr bhalla- he is OK. But don't tell this to ishu.Raman strictly told me not to tell her.
Toshi ji- OK ,did he eat anything.
Mr bhalla- just little soup.
Toshi ji- take care of him.saying so she hung the call.she turned and see ishita standing beside her with tears in her eyes.
Ishita- maa what happened to happy.

Ishita- maa please tell me the truth.what happened to him.he is OK naa.tell me naa.she said crying bitterly.
Toshi ji hug her tightly and said- nothing happened to him he is just little sick.she said consoling ishita.

Ishita- no maa.I don't feel like eating.I just wanna sleep.
Toshi ji- OK go and sleep.ishita was going when she came back and asked-maa can I sleep in his room.
Toshi ji look at her and said- OK.go and sleep.

Next morning toshi ji came to his room,seeing her sleeping peacefully hugging his shirt.she was stunned to see her love for Raman.toshi ji shook her and said- ishu,Raman wanna talk to u.
Ishita wake up instantly and took the phone from toshi ji.toshi ji caressed her cheek and said- u talk to him I am making the breakfast. Come soon.saying so she goes out.
Ishita put on the phone on her ear but didn't say anything.he was also silent. Nobody was talking just hearing each other's rythem of breathing. They were silent but like their heartbeats were talking.their eyes were moist .at last he said- sona.
She close her eyes trying to feel his voice.a tear fell from her eyes.
He said again- sona,r u there.
Ishita- happy.he smiled hearing her voice after almost twelve hours.
How r u,both asked in unison.they laughed together then cried together.
Ishita- aap kaise ho happy(how r u)
Raman- I am OK sona.please stop crying.
Ishita wiped her tears and said- I wanna see u happy.
Raman- OK switch on the laptop.we will talk on Skype.
Ishita put the phone and goes to washroom.she wash her face and comb her hair in a jiffy then come and switch on the laptop.
After waiting for some five minutes,he came online.they look at each other and lost .they tried to touch each other but couldn't as it was the screen. A tear roll down their eyes ,Raman touch his screen to wipe it but couldn't .finally he said- if u go on crying like this.I am coming back.
Ishita wiped her tears and said- I am not crying anymore.but please take care of urself. See u r looking too weak in just a day.
Raman- and what about u. Maa told me that u didn't had ur dinner yesterday.why.
Ishita hold her ears and said sorry.I will never do this again.
Raman smiled and said- I will be back soon.now go and get ready for school.u must be getting late.I also have to go for registration.
Ishita smiled and said- OK bye happy.
Raman- bye sona. Ishita kissed her hand and keep it on the screen .
Ishita- take care happy.Raman also did the same thing.they both smiled and stand up to go to their respective destination closing their laptops.
