Ishita entered the room only to saw him standing near the window and looking outside lost in his thoughts.she realised that he is sad.she went slowly and hugged him from back only to be shrugged off.
Ishita- I know u r angry coz I said those words.but u didn't understand my motive.I just want to make u understand that simmi wants happiness in her life and abhi can be her happiness.she said hugging him again.
Raman shrugged her hands again and said- toh jao ,ho toh raha hai tumhare mann ka.why u came here.I dont wanna hear a word from u.just go away .he said in sheer anger.
Ishita - why u r behaving like this ,Maine aisa toh kuch nahi kaha.
Raman- agar kuch nahi kaha toh yahan explanation dene kyun aayin ho.just get out.he said harshly making her eyes moist.
She was about to say something when someone knocked the door.Raman call the person inside and saw abhi standing there.
Raman- come naa inside.he said while ishita too smiled .
Abhi came inside and said- I know Raman u r not happy thinking about simmi with me.but believe me I won't do anything to hurt u.if u r not comfortable with this,I swear I will never think about marrying simmi.will forget her forever,coz u r more important then anyone.hope it won't affect our friendship.
Raman- it will definitely affect our friendship. He said sternly.
Abhi look at him with questioning eyes.
Raman- ab tu jeeja ho jayega mera.but khabardaar Jo meri simmi ko pareshan kiya.jaan le lunga teri.he said smiling.
Abhi smiled and hug him tight.ishita smiled seeing them like this but deep inside she was still stuck at his behaviour.
Raman- but first we should ask simmi about it.shall I ask.
Abhi- no I want to talk to her.I want to tell her that I love her.can I.
Raman- sure yaar.he said and abhi went smiling.he got everything today.
After abhi went,
Raman- why u r still here.go away I don't wanna talk with u.jao mar jao.
Ishita- why u r reacting like this.I was just giving an example.and if u r so hurt then I am sorry but don't do this to me.u know I can't bear ur hatred. She said with moist eyes.
Raman look at her and said- it's good ,u can hurt me but can't see hatred in my eyes for u.
Ishita- Maine aisa kya kaha.she said hurt.
Raman pinned her to the wall and said- really u don't even realise what u have said.u said that u will leave me and I have to live without u.
Ishita- I was just making u,
Raman- I have listened that.but do u realise how ur words have affected me.tumhe kaise realisation hoga,u never knew how I was without u,before u.teen saal ishita teen saal I was roaming around the city like a lifeless man.naa ghar naa pariwar aur naa hi jeene ka koi maksad.sabke liye masiha par khud ke liye ek tuta hua bikhra hua insaan,jisne sab kuch kho diya tha.par jab tumhe mila toh laga ki main bhi zinda hoon.sirf saansein lena zindagi nahi hoti yeh tumne sikhaya.tumne iss dil ko dhakana sikhaya,naa sirf ek khwab dikhaya par usse pura bhi kiya,mera parivaar dobara ek saath ho gaya,simmi thik ho gayi.sab thik ho gaya,kiski wajah se,tumhari wajah se.aur tum aaj mujhse puchti ho can I live if u die some day.do I really have to answer this.don't u know what u mean to me.u hurt me jaan by saying this.and I will not forgive u for this.he said while tears made way down his cheek.
Ishita was looking at him with awe.he was opening his heart and she was just listening to him with moist eyes.she came closer and kissed his tears.he close his eyes feeling her soothing touch.she kissed all over his face lovingly and said finally- I never want to hurt u Raman.coz I know how much u love me and what I mean to u.I was just trying to make u understand that how alone simmi is.sorry if I hurt u.she said holding her ears.
Raman saw her apologising and hugged her tightly.ishita smiled and hugged him back.
Raman snuggle more into her and said- I know I over reacted but I couldn't help.I just can't think to loose u.u r understanding my situation.
Ishita- I totally understand if situation. I remember how madly I behaved when u were hospitalised and everyone lost hope.I also can't think to loose u forget loosing .she said cupping his face.
Raman- I love u jaan.he said joining his forehead with her.
Ishita- love u too Raman.she said hugging him tight.they smiled together and soon their lips got intermingled in each other kissing each other hungrily.
On the other hand,abhi arranged everything to propose simmi.he asked bhallas and took her for the dinner.
Simmi- where we r going abhi.
Abhi- just wait simmi.u will know it soon.r u scared.
Simmi- no,why to fear when u r with me.I trust u abhi.
Abhi- thanks for trusting me simmi.I will never break ur trust.
Simmi- I know.she said smiling.abhi too smiled. Soon they reach the hotel.roof top was reserved for them.abbi took her to the roof top.she was enjoying the ambience.the food was brought and they had their dinner in much silence.
At last simmi said- I know what u wanna say.but abhi I can't marry u.see it's not like I don't trust u but the thing is that I don't wanna trouble u.I am a widow and was raped and apart from that I was in mental asylum for three years.I don't know whether I can ever move ahead or not.kyun mere liye apni zindagi barbad karna chahte ho.I am not the one for u.go and marry someone else abhi.u r my best friend and I just want the best for u.
Abhi- and that's what u r simmi.agar kisi aur se shaadi karni hoti toh main kab ka kar leta.but I want u in my life.meri biwi banogi toh sirf tum warna koi nahi.now the decision is on u.whether u want a love filled life for ur friend or a love less life.
Simmi- but abhi,
Abhi- say yes or no simmi.do u love me .will u marry me.I don't wanna listen anything other then yes or no.
Simmi- u r not understanding.
Abhi- yes or no simmi.
Simmi- yes but I need some time.
Abhi- I can give u my whole life simmi.I love u.
Simmi- I
Abhi- no need to tell it now.we gave whole life to say this and realise this.he said kissing the back of her palm.she hugged him tight crying.he simply kissed her forehead lovingly.
That night ,bhallas were so happy that finally everything fall in place.everyone is happy and contented and all because of ishra mainly ishita.
