It was a week since ishita come home.amma appa was trying hard to make her normal but still she was not being herself. She wasn't attending her lectures fearing of everyone's reaction,so Raman came everyday to meet her and study with her.she felt great in Raman's company.she was getting more and more dependent on Raman emotionally.Raman was also loving and caring for her like never before.Raman want to tell toshiji about ishita but was feared thinking what if she deny.he couldn't go against her will.
It was a normal day,ishita was in her room when amma came to her room.
Amma- ishu,come with me.I wanna go to mandir,come drop me.
Ishita- amma I don't wanna go anywhere.aap please chale jao.
Amma- why kanna,how many days u will hide urself like this.why u r ashamed kanna.come today I will get my ishu ready.saying so she take out her clothes.after that amma braided her hair in many braids like ishita did.after that she applied a thick layer of kajal like ishita did.
Amma- yeh ho gayi meri bachchi taiyaar.chal mere saath ab.
Ishita nodded and went with amma.she dropped amma in the temple.
Ishita- amma u go and call me when u wanna come home.I will come and pick u.
Amma- don't u wanna go inside.
Ishita- no amma,aap jao.I am going home.
Amma- achcha kanna.
Ishita- bye amma.saying so she start her bike and was going when she saw a old lady was about to fall due to scorching heat.ishita park her bike and ran to save her.ishita hold her in neck of time.
Ishita- r u OK aunty.
Toshiji- I am good,just was about to fell.lagta hai bp low ho gaya hai.thanks for saving me puttar.ek auto karwa de naa please.
Ishita- why auto aunty .tell me ur address ,I will drop u home.
Toshiji- nahi puttar ,I will go myself.why to trouble u.
Ishita- trouble kyun aunty.come I will drop u home.saying so ishita took toshiji to her bike.
She made toshiji sit on her bike and said- aunty kas ke pakadna.
Toshiji smiled and said- haan puttar.
Ishita took her home talking throughout the way.toshiji was smiling throughout the way listening to her talk.
Ishita dropped toshiji home and was going when toshiji said- come puttar,at least have tea.
Ishita- no aunty ,I am good.let me go.
Toshiji- aise kaise .chalo ander.she said smiling.
Ishita too smiled and went inside with her.toshiji made her sit and said- ruko main chai laati hoon.
Ishita- no aunty,it's not needed.aapki tabiyat kharab hai naa.
Toshiji- no I am OK.joh bhi tabiyat kharab thi ,iss pyari bachchi ko dekh kar sahi ho gayi.she said cupping ishita's face.
Ishita smiled hearing this and sat down to have tea while toshiji went to make tea.
Raman entered his house only to see ishita sitting there .he was shocked as well as worried thinking what will happen if his mother come to know about Ishita.moreover he thought what she is doing in his house.he rushed to ishita and said- ishita what u r doing here.in my house.
Ishita- ur house.I didn't know its ur house.actually that aunty brought me home.she said signalling towards toshiji.
Raman- she is my mother.did u tell her about us.
Ishita- nahi why should I.but r u afraid to accept our relationship in front of ur mom.
Raman- no baba, nothing like that.it just that she warned me not to get involved with any Delhi girl.so I want some time to convince her.u please go from here now.
Ishita- OK.but meet me in the evening.I wanna talk with u.saying so she was going when toshiji came and asked-where r u going puttar.
Raman- she is going home maa.
Toshiji- why u r answering in her place.do u know her .
Ishra look at each other tongue tied while toshiji was looking at them all confused.
Raman- woh maa,woh maa.
Ishita- yes aunty he knows me.actually I am his classmate.
Toshiji- classmate??
Raman- haan maa,actually she is prof.iyer's daughter.
Toshiji- prof iyer?? Prof,vishwanathan iyer??
Raman- yes,he is the one.how do u know him.
Toshiji smiled and said- kaise nahi janungi.saying so she went to ishita and asked-u r ishita.
Ishita nodded in yes.
Toshiji- kinni soni hai.u know Raman I always told u not to get involved with any Delhi girl .u know why.
Raman- why maa.he asked all confused.
Toshiji- because ur papaji has already fixed ur marriage with ishita.
Raman was shocked to know this.he look at ishita,ishita look down making him assure that she too knows about it.
Raman- sach maa.meri aur ishita ki shaadi.he asked all confused.
Toshiji- I know u don't know anything about it.don't worry I will tell u everything today.baitho tum dono.
Ishra sat down ,Raman was about to say something when toshiji came with a album and a packet.
Toshiji- ishita puttar,yeh tere liye hai.shagun.she said forwarding the packet.
Ishita look at Raman who was equally confused.
Toshiji- why u r looking at Raman.he can't deny me.even vishwa can't deny me.le le puttar.yeh tera haq hai.
Ishita took it and touched toshiji's feet.then toshiji make them sit on either sides and open the big album.the first pic was of a boy of about six- seven years with a new born in his arms. The boy was smiling showing his dimples and have beautiful curly hairs.
Toshiji- see Raman its u and the baby in ur arms is ishita. U r the first person to hold her when ishita was born.
Ishra look at each other with utter shock. They never knew that they know each other since childhood.
Toshiji continued-we r neighbors to ishu's parent.madhu was pregnant when they come to live beside us.Raman was very much attached with madhu.u know Raman u use to live ,eat and even sleep with iyers.and ishita use to respond when ever Raman touch madhu's tummy.u both share an unbreakable bond even before her birth.she said smiling.
Ishra look at each other and their fingers got entwined with each other behind toshiji's back.
Toshiji- Raman hold ishita when she was born.see how protectively u were holding her.ishra look at the picture and was smiling .toshiji turned the page and there was another pic where Raman was kissing her forehead.
Toshiji- u know ishu,Raman wasn't ready to leave u with ur parents.he was adamant to take u with us and when I said,we can't take her as every girl live with their parents.he asked, then why I live with his papaji in place of nanaji.his papaji answered ,coz we got married then Raman told us to get u guys married as well.she said smiling while ishita was blushing hearing this .Raman was holding her fingers firmly.
Toshiji- u know after u came home,Raman use to be always near u.he always love to be with u and the day we were having ur naming ceremony, he kept ur name pinky coz u were so pink.and when we kept many things near ishita to pick something out of those,so that pandit ji can predict her future,u know what u hold.
Ishita- what aunty.
Toshiji- u hold Raman's hand .that they pandit ji told us that u guys r made for each other and we have fixed ur marriage with Raman.kehte hai na kuch log ek dusre ke liye hi bane hote hai.waise hi tu mere Raman ke liye janmi hai ishita.
Ishra were just looking at each other hearing toshiji's words.
Toshiji- and after that we went to tirupati for her mundane ceremony.wahan par bahut bade bade ladoo chadte hai prasad mein.and after ur mundane, I asked Raman that now ishita is bald ,u will still marry her then he answered that now she has become a ladoo like those ladoo.and after that he use to call u ladoo.she said smiling.
Ishra too smiled hearing this.Raman kissed the back of her palm and said slowly- I love u ladoo.ishita blushed at his words.
Toshiji- u know when ishita was two and u were eight years old.still u use to pamper her so much and she too was depended most on u.nobody can touch her hair.her hair was too small and when u use to come home,u make many braids out of her hair .choti choti bahut si chotiyaan.she use to look too cute and not to forget her thick layer of kajal.Raman khud lagata tha.riz sajata tha ,bahut saari choti bandh ke aur kajal lagaa ke .u use to look so cute.she said looking at ishita and found her same as before with many braids and thick layer of kajal.
Toshiji- u still look same ishita,just tge way my raman loves.she said caressing her cheek.
Ishita- sach aunty.is it all true.
Toshiji- yes this is the truth.I am wondering how u guys didn't fall in love till now.and why vishwa never come to me.I am so angry with vishwa and madhu.she was saying when ishita got call from madhu to pick her from temple.
Toshiji- we will talk about it later.Raman go and drop ishu in ur car.bike yahin rehne de.
Raman- ji maa.saying so he was going with ishita when toshiji hold ishita's hand and said- this is for u.its from Raman's first earning.saying so toshiji make ishita wear a pair of bangles which she was wearing.ishra bend and touched her feet.
Toshiji- god bless u.tell vishwa and madhu to come soon to fix the date of marriage.I want my ishita asap in my house.she said kissing her forehead.
