Raman was stunned to hear mihika's words while ishita face fell hearing it.his hold loosen on her feeling the wetness near his shirt.
Raman asked from his eyes,what happened.
Ishita- miku I will call u later.mummy ji is calling me.
Mihika- OK,give my regards to jeeju.saying so she hung the call.
Raman- what happened jaan.why u r crying .
Ishita- woh actually,
Before they can talk further toshi ji came and call them in the hall as guests were bidding adieu.ishra came to the reception hall hand in hand.Raman eyes were constantly on ishita.she was looking sad and Raman couldn't take this.he wants to talk to her but they were not getting chance to talk to each other.
Finally after an hour they were alone in their room.ishita was standing near the window wearing a black kurti and leggings. She was looking aimlessly at the sky.Raman came and hugged her from behind.
Raman- what happened jaan.why u r so upset.he said rubbing his lips on her shoulder.
Ishita look at him and said- don't u wanna ask anything.
Raman- if I have given u time that means I can wait.u will tell me when u will feel like.
Ishita- aap itne achche kyun hai Raman(why u r so good)
Raman- because I love u and can't see u sad.he said kissing her earlobe.she shivered by his raw touch.
Raman thought she is irritated by his touch.
Raman- sorry I thought u r liking my touch.saying so he was going when she pulled him and said- then who told u that ur thinking is wrong.I do like when u touch.I want u to touch me,love me.but before that I want to share something with u .my past ,my bitter past.
Raman- u don't have to do this if u don't want.
Ishita- no Raman.I want to.its high time that I should throw this past out of my present.
Raman settled on the bed,she sat beside him and keep her head on his chest.he circled his arms around her.she was looking worried,he hold her hand firmly.
Raman- u don't have to do this,if u don't want.
Ishita- no I want to.saying so she snuggle closer to him.he planted a kiss on her forehead.
She started- its a incident took place six years ago.I was twenty years old.appa was manager in ashok's office in chennai.we live in his service apartment. Me and amma .one day ashok saw me and started following me.he started finding way to come closer to me.being a girl in my young stage started getting attracted towards him.he use to send flowers ,chocolates ,gifts etc often.he use to take me to the parties.one day he took me to a valentine party and proposed me in a very romantic style.I was on nine clouds.I said yes to him.but after that day he started showing his true colours.he always tries to get close to me.I like him but wasn't ready for anything before getting married,so soon he started getting detached to me and finally one day I find him with a girl on his bed.he was telling her that he tried everything on me but he failed and now he is fed up of playing a good guy.that day I realised that he is with me only because he lust for me.he never loved me.
Raman looked at her,she was sobbing silently. He hugged her tightly and consoled her.
She continued- and when I confronted him,he counter back on me saying i dont deserve anybodys love.he said that I am disgusting as a woman.I can never satisfy any man.no man can never be happy with me coz I can never forget my old values.he insulted me like anything and I still remember his harsh words.his cruel words always stopped me to get into any relationship. But u r something else.u sooth my every wound with ur unconditional love.u know seeing u I remember the man whom I met that day.the man who changed my life in every sense.
Raman- which man.
Ishita- the man I met that day in park.
Flashback
After having an ugly fight with ashok,ishita was sitting and crying on a bench in the dark.it was pitch dark,a no moon night.she was sitting there and sobbing silently when she heard a voice.
Why u r crying.
She look around to find the source of the voice but all she could see a dark shadow sitting on the other side of the bench.
Ishita- that's none of ur business.
Man- I know we don't know each other.but sometimes we can share our pain with strangers.that helps in lessening the pain.kabhi kabhi kuch takleef aisi hoti hai jisse hum apno ko nahi keh paate par ajnabiyon ko bata dete hai.shayad hum bhi unn logon mein se hai.
Ishita thought about his words and thinks that he is indeed right.
Ishita narrated everything happened with her,how ashok betrayed her .but she didn't tell him the name .
She was crying bitterly.
Man- why u r crying for a man who never loved u.who insulted u in the most ugly manner.is he worthy of ur tears.
Ishita- u r giving me advice but seems u r also sailing in the same boat.I can feel that someone betrayed u too.am I right.
Man- yes u r right.my girlfriend too betrayed me for a rich guy.I was also sitting here and crying on my bad fate but hearing ur story I am thinking that I am not in a very bad situation. Actually we both r not in a bad situation. What we would have done if we get to know about them after our marriage with them.I think we r fortunate enough that we r saved .
Ishita- yes I think we r fortunate enough.but u know I want to defeat that bloody man.I want to win over him.make him realised that I am not a shit but diamond which he rejected.
Man- I think u should do that.if u believe in urself u can change the world.even I want to show my girlfriend that I have much more caliber then her bloody boyfriend.
Ishita- yes I will shoe him ,his place.thanks for making me realise my worth.my tears r not so worthless to waste on such an idiot.
Man- I too wanna thank u .u supported me in my sorrow in a way noone could ever support.
Ishita- thank you my stranger friend.
Man- ur welcome miss stranger.
Ishita was going back when the man called her.
Man- hey but how do we come to know that whether we have succeeded in winning over our enemies or not.I think we should meet again.
Ishita- yes we should .OK we will meet again here only after six years.same date but in morning ,so that we can see each other's face.morning in ten.
Man- OK same date after six years.we will meet and tell each other that whether we won or not.bye for now.
Ishita- bye.
Flashback end
Ishita- tomorrow is the day when we have decided to met.if u will allow then I will go.if u don't then I won't to meet that stranger.
Raman- u wanna meet him.
Ishita- yes,he is the one who supported me when I was all alone. He encouraged me to stand for myself.u know after that day I sold all the jeweleries I had and started this company.everyone discouraged me that I can't be successful in this mans world but his words always make me believe that I can achieve anything in world,if I want to.I want to meet him and tell him that I destroyed ashok.his company became bankrupt and his bungalow was also sold.I made him beg for his dear life before me.I wanna tell that stranger friend of mine that I won over and wanna know did he win over his enemy,his ex girlfriend. I wanna meet him but only if u allow.
