Raman was driving ,ishita was looking outside while shagun was fuming in anger.
Shagun- Raman,mujhe hamari engagement ring leni hai,let's go to the jewellery shop.she said trying to make ishita jealous.
Ishita eyes became moist hearing her.shagun smirked seeing her teary eyes.
Raman- shagun,actually we have to go to pick something for ishita ,so if u want to buy rings,u can go alone.I will drop u.
Shagun- but Raman,how can I buy rings for both of us.moreover how I will pay.
Raman- don't worry about that,take ring of ashok's finger size and I will pay for it when we came later.
Ishita look at Raman and said- who is ashok and why she will buy ring of his size.
Raman- actually ishi,I want to confess something.ashok is shagun's.
Shagun- cousin.he is my cousin ,and his size is same as Raman.
Raman- no shagun,I wanna tell u something ishi.he was saying when ishita shouted ,Raman car.
He look at the front and see a car going to bang in his.he turned the car in a swift movement and stopped in the corner in a jerk banging ishita' s head on the front mirror.
Raman face turned pale seeing this .he hold her and shakes her,ishi ishi.r u OK.he was so scared while shagun was happy seeing her.
Raman shaked her vigorously and said- ishi,bolo kuch.
Ishita slowly opened her eyes and said- I am OK Raman.
Raman hugged her tight and kissed her forehead- pagal madrasan, daraa diya mujhe.meri jaan nikal jaati abhi.he said hugging her tight.a tear roll down his cheek in sheer fear and fell on her shoulder making her realise that he is crying.
Ishita broke the hug and said- I am alright Raman.she said cupping his face.Raman kissed the back of her palm and said- main bahut darr gaya tha ishi.I thought I lost u.he said and hugged her again tight.ishita was surprised seeing his reaction on this minor accident. The way he was feared to loose her ,a blind man can even say that he loves her only she close her eyes feeling his touch and hugged him back.
Shagun was seeing all this and was fuming in anger.she was thinking that all her plan in going to ruin seeing his love for her.and to add to this he was going to tell her the truth.she was just looking at ishra who were lost in each other oblivious of the world .
Ishita was first to realise their position and the gaze of shagun on them.she broke the hug and said- let's go Raman,we r getting late.
Raman kissed her forehead and said- yes,chalo.he close his eyes to compose himself and start driving again.ishita was just looking at Raman when her phone ringed.
Ishita picked the phone and said- yes rahul.
Raman made a face hearinghis name.
Ishita- ho gayi presentation.
Rahul- yes ,and it went fab.all thanks to u.
Ishita- ohho ,don't say thanks.it was my work.BTW how r u now.

Raman cupped her face and said- what happened ishi.
Ishita- Raman,something is bothering me since long and I can't keep it more into myself,I want to ask u as I am feeling suffocated thinking about it.
Raman became worried and said- haan pucho.aisi kaun si baat hai joh tumhe pareshan kar rahi hai.
Ishita- do u love, she couldn't complete her sentence as they heard shagun - Raman,see how's it.Maine socha ki jab yahan aa hi gaye hai toh why buy a ring.let's do some wedding shopping.she said showing one of the most expensive diamond necklace.
Raman was frustrated by her interference and he said- buy as u like.I am busy,don't disturb me.
Shagun- I want to talk to u something, Raman.please come.saying so she drag Raman from there.
Raman- kya hai .why u r dragging me like this.
Shagun- why u r doing this Raman.main yahan tumhe ,tumhari ishita se milne aayi hoon and u r doing this.is tarah tih sab gadbad ho jayega.if u don't want me tell me I will go back waise bhi I am missing my ashok.
Raman- u r right shagun.this is a bad plan.I know my ishi loves me.and I am going to propose her so,it will be better if u go back to ashok.I don't want to continue this plan as I can't hurt her.toh tum wapas chali jao and yes thanks for giving ur precious time for me and ishi.u r such a great friend but now we don't need u any longer.in fact there wasn't any need of u ever .I think we should end this drama here only.he was saying so to shagun when he saw a boy in mid twenties sitting beside ishita.
Raman- who is this.and why he is sitting beside my ishi.bye shagun we will talk later.be said and went leaving a stunned shagun.her every dream of becoming his wife was shattering in front of her eyes and she don't know what to do.she went to call her mother.
On the other hand,Raman was going to ishita when that man tapped her shoulder and she said- rahul,tum yahan.
Raman stopped in mid realising that he is rahul.he boiled in anger seeing him.
Rahul settled beside ishita and said- yes cams to pick something, but u .
Raman came to him and said- ishita has told u that we r here,still u r asking as u don't know anything .hamara peecha kyun kar rahe ho.
Ishita eyed Raman not to say so and said- he is kidding rahul.hope u don't mind.
Rahul- ofcourse not.I know he is ur friend.
Raman came near ishita and said holding her waist- not friend,best friend and only friend.
Rahul- no ,we r also friend ,naa ishu.
Raman- she is only my friend.she is only mine.he said holding him more closer.
Rahul was enjoying his possessiveness for ishita ,so he said- OK let it be.ishu,can u help me.ofcourse u will help coz u r always with me to help me.he said smiling making Raman annoyed.
Raman- sorry ,she is busy with me.I have to pick something for her.saying so she was taking her away when rahul said- please ishu,just few minutes.it's too urgent.
Ishita- OK what's the problem.
Rahul- thanks ishu,u r such a sweetheart. Actually I have to propose someone ,so please help me selecting ring for her.he said loudly making Raman here.
Raman- meri ishi ko propose karna chahta hai.I won't let him do that.thinking so he said- sorry we r very busy today.tum khud select kar lo.hume jaana hai.
Ishita- Raman,why u r doing this.woh bechara madad maang raha hai.let me help him.
Raman- woh bechara tumse madad kyun maang raha hai.go and bring that girl for whom she is buying ring.tum chalo yahan se.
Ishita- Raman,it's a matter of few minutes.saying so she sat and started selecting ring. After some time she select a ring and said- this one will be perfect.yeh le lo.
Raman took it from her hand before rahul can take it and said- yes it's beautiful. Yeh main le leta hoon.
Ishita- Raman,I selected it for his girl.aap wapas kar do.
Raman- no I will not.mujhe yahin pasand hai.rahul tum kuch aur le lo.
Rahul smiled and nodded.ishita say sorry on Raman's behalf and start selecting other ring.she selected another one but Raman took that too.in this way ishita selected seven rings and all Raman purchased making ishita angry while rahul was enjoying Raman's jealousy.
Raman- why r u angry.tum le lo naa uske liye dusra.
Ishita- and u will take that one too.unko kuch le ke jaane do naa.why u r stretching the matter.
Raman- OK ,I will not say anything now.he said making a puppy face.
Ishita smiles and went to pick a ring for rahul while rahul came to Raman and said- tum saari rings le lo but ishita ke finger mein ring tih main hi daalunga.woh bhi tumhari engagement ke din hi.it will be a grand function, two best friends getting engaged on sane day but with two different people.tum shagun se aur ishita mujhse.it will be fun Raman.
Raman- koi bhi meri ishi ko mujhse alag nahi kar sakta.main kisi ko nahi karne dunga.
Rahul- why anyone will do it.tum khud joh ho usse khud se dur karne ke liye.u know sometimes I pity ishita that she loved a man like u who never loved her back but then I realise that u r more unfortunate as u loved someone else leaving a girl like ishita.ek ladki jisne apni zindagi tumhare naam kar di.who left her career ,her education because of u.tum aisi ladki ko pyaar nahi karte.woh pagal usne apni padhayii chod di,apna admission chod diya, apna astitva chod diya,tumhari parchaiyyee ban kar jeene lagi.kyun, kyunki tum apni bimaar maa ko chod kar jaana nahi chahte the,u were about to leave ur admission there, for ur mom so she stayed back in place of u.fulfill all ur duties ,tumhara ghar dekha,tumhare maa papa ko dekha and u couldn't love her.aisi ladki jisne khud ko luta diya tum par tum usse pyaar nahi kar paaye Raman,tum sach mein bahut badnasseb ho.but thanks to u now I will make her mine.thank u Raman.he said and went smiling that now Raman will surely take the extreme step and will correct everything while raman was shocked hearing his words.
