Time started passing,ishra have became very good friends almost inseparable.Raman loved to spend time with his gudiya while ishita also use to search way to be with him.their parents were happy seeing their closeness but the happiest soul was toshiji,who can see the difference in Raman's behaviour.he has started smiling,playing and above all living his life.
He start feeling happy and contented in life and all this was just because of one person,ishita.ishita is the soul of Raman.he can't bear her separation even for a day and all came to know about it when ishita went to her grandmother's house for two days.Raman was all sad and disturbed when she was not around.the only time anyone can see him smiling was when he talk to ishita.
Toshiji was happy seeing him getting normal but also worried for him coz for him,ishita has became his world and toshiji get worried thinking what if some day iyers stopped Raman to meet ishita or ishita herself stop meeting Raman.she can't even think how Raman will react.
In between all this,their half yearly exams have started.ishita was preparing really hard for the exams as she is one of the top students of the class while raman was relaxed as if he knows everything.ishita often ask him about his exams and he always says they r good.
Finally it was the day of their result.every student was excited for their result and so was ishita.
Ishra were going to school in his bicycle. It was their routine now that everyday Raman picked her from her house and they go school together and have their lunch,ishita loves to eat the aalu ka parantha he bring while raman had to eat the dosa she bring.he don't like South Indian food but still he eat it just to see her smiling eating his tiffin.after the school,he took her with him,get her a chocolate and then drop her home.it was their daily routine.
Ishra were going school when ishita said- Raman ,aren't u excited.
Raman- excited??for what gudiya.
Ishita- arey aaj hamara result hai.u knowi worked really hard this time .I want to score atleast 98% .what about u,kitne milenge aapko.I know more then me.aap itne smart Jo hai.my smart Raman.she said pulling his cheek.
Raman- hey gudiya,what u r doing.balance bigad jayega toh hum gir jayenge naa.
Ishita- sorry,kitne marks aayenge aapke.
Raman- I don't know.Maine calculate nahi kiye.
Ishita- but I know ,bahut achche aayenge. U r so intelligent.she said smiling.
Raman smiled and continued riding to the school.soon they reached school and went to their respective classes.
Soon results was announced, as usual ishita stood first in the class while in Raman's class everyone got their result except Raman.neither Raman was bothered about his result.
He was sitting in the last bench when his teacher called him and told him to go to the principal's office to get his result as it was with him.
Raman simply nodded and went to the principal's office.when he entered the room,he saw his mom was standing there along with iyers.actually toshiji got call from school and in fear she called iyers also.
Raman gulped his saliva and went inside only to hear from his principal- see Mr iyer,what he has done.now what u want to say.aap apna beta kehte hai naa usse,see what he has done.aise answersheet submit kiya hai.what u tell me what should I do with him.he is in class ten and in half yearly exams,he has done this.aise kaise chalega.I have rusticate him.
Toshiji cried and said- no please don't say so.main haath jodti hoon,uski zindagi barbaad ho jayegi.she said folding her hands.
Raman saw this and said- no need to do this maa,let sir do what he want to do.
Toshiji- yeh kya bakwaas kar raha hai Raman.aur yeh kya kiya hai tune apne answersheet mein.
Raman- I did what I want to do.aap samjhti hi nahi that I don't want to study.mujhe padhayi nahi karni hai.
Appa- sir can we talk with him in private.we want a day to sort out this problem.
Principal- OK,u people can discuss this and I will allow him in boards only when he promise me that he will take his studies seriously.
Appa- thank u,saying so he hold Raman's hand and soon all four went to iyers house.ishita saw them leaving and didn't understand what's wrong.
Soon all four were in iyers house.Raman was sitting like nothing happened while iyers and toshiji was hell worried seeing his answersheets.
Raman- why u people r so worried.aakhir aisa kya hua hai.
Appa- how can u say this Raman.they want to rusticate u.
Raman- toh kar de,I don't care.
Appa- but we do care and u have to answer us,why u do so.yeh kya hai,answersheets mein answer likhne ki jagah u have drawn ishita's face,somewhere her eyes, iska kya matlab hai.
Raman- mujhe achcha lagta hai uska face draw karna.I want to tell everyone that I like her.
Appa- it's good that u like ishu.but in answersheet ,kanna.tumne ek question ka bhi answer nahi likha.tumhe aata nahi tha.
Raman- aata tha.
Appa- phir kyun nahi likha.
Raman- kyunki main nahi padhna chahta.
Appa- par kyun.
Raman- kyunki Papa nahi hai mujhe padhane ke liye.nahi hai mujhe shabashi dene ke liye.earlier I want to come first in exams just to get a hug from him.but ab nahi hai woh and every time I score good marks I will expect a hug from him.but woh nahi milne wala mujhe so I don't wanna study.mujhe nahi padhna.he said with moist eyes.
Everyone became silent hearing his words.
Raman- Papa the,toh pyaar se padhate the, main first aata toh mujhe pyaar karte.but ab woh nahi hai.main jab bhi padhne baithta hoon woh yaad aa jaate hai aur phir main kuch nahi padh paata,naa likh paata hoon.aankhen bandh ho jaati hai aur haath apne aap chale lagte hai,aur Jo dimaag mein hota hai woh paper par aa jaata hai.main jaanbhuj kar nahi karta maa.par ab nahi hoti mujhse padhayi.main bahut akela ho gaya hoon.he said sobbing.
Toshiji and iyers eyes too got moist hearing this from him.they have started believing that he is slowly overcoming his pain but they were so wrong .he is still in so much pain.and his only solace was ishita,that's why he had drawn only her pics all over the answersheets.
Toshiji couldn't take his pain and hugged him tight.he snuggled into her like a baby and start crying bitterly.
Raman- Papa kyun chod kar chale gaye ,maa.kya woh mujhse pyaar nahi karte the.he asked crying bitterly.
Toshiji don't know how to console him and answer him.she was just caressing his back slowly while iyers were also feeling helpless to see him in so much grief.
All were lost in their own thoughts when ishita said- kya hua sab kyun ro rahe hai.
All turned to her and look at her.she was standing at the door looking at them with questioning eyes.
Everyone wiped their tears in a jiffy and amma said- arey kanna,u r here .at this time.abhi toh school ka time hai.
Ishita came inside and said- yes I saw u all going together toh Maine socha aap log mujhe chod kar party karne jaa rahe hai.toh I pretended to be in pain aur ghar aa gayi.but aap sab toh ro rahe hai.kya hua appa,koi mar gaya kya.
Appa- no kanna,woh sabke aankh mein smoke chali gayi hai.woh kitchen mein khana ban raha hai naa.u tell me how's ur result.
Ishita wasn't convinced but said- main first aayi appa,98.6%aayen mujhe.saying so she ran to Raman and asked- aapko kitne milen Raman.dikhaiye mujhe apna report card.hum number milayenge.
Raman looked at her tongue-tied not knowing how to answer her.
Ishita- show me naa Raman.
Raman showed her his answersheets. Ishita got curious seeing her pics and asked- what's this.yeh aapne mera face kyun banaya hai ,iske number thodi naa milenge.she said smiling.
Raman- I draw ur face,coz I like it.
Ishita- matlab,aise toh sir ne aapko daanta hoga.
Raman- yes he told me that he will rusticate me.and u know what I don't care.mujhe koi fark nahi padhta.
Ishita- aise kaise fark nahi padhta.padenge nahi toh kaise chalega.
Raman- I don't feel like studying gudiya.
Ishita- but padhenge nahi toh bade businessman kaise banenge.
Raman- mujhe nahi banna kuch.mujhe kisi bhi cheez se kou fark nahi padhta.all I care is u.and I know u will be with me whether I study further or not.u don't care about anything else but me.naa gudiya.
Ishita - ofcourse padhta hai.if u don't wanna study then I don't wanna be ur friend.appa kehte hai Jo bachche padhte nahi woh gande hote hai.aur unse dosti nahi karte,aap gande hai.aaj se aapki aur meri dosti khatam.saying so she ran to her room leaving a stunned Raman and equally shocked Mr and Mrs iyer and toshiji.
