Raman was shocked beyond words to hear this .he was trying to believe that ishita actually broke her friendship with him.his eyes got filled and tears start flowing from his eyes unknown to her.
Toshiji shaked him but he got almost still as if his life came to an end.toshiji got scared seeing his condition ,she start crying.appa came forward and shaked Raman hard and said- kuch bolo Raman.
That broke his trance and he start crying bitterly hugging his legs to his chest- gudiya chali gayi maa.usne mujhe akela ,usne mujhe phir akela kar diya,Maine kaha tha matarani mujhse sab kuch chin leti hai,phir bhi aapne kaha tha mannat maango.dekho woh chali gayi maa,meri mannat chali gayi.mujhe phir akela chod kar chali gayi.he was saying between his hiccups .
Appa,amma and toshiji got tensed hearing him.appa hugged him and said- don't worry kanna,main usse samjhaunga.I will make her understand.woh friendship nahi todegi tumse.
Raman- nahi,she will not listen to u.woh bahut ziddi hai. Main jaanta hoon usse,ab woh wapas nahi aayegi.he said snuggling more into appa.
Appa- hum samjhayenge kanna she will understand for sure.
Raman looked at them all lost and then silently went out of the house.toshiji went behind him fearing him taking any wrong decision but he simply went to his room and closed the door.
Toshiji knocked the door ,he open the door and said- don't worry maa,main marungaa nahi,par uske bina jee bhi nahi paaungaa.he said and again cried hugging toshiji tight.after that he spent all time sitting in his room silently.
On the other hand,appa and amma was shocked to see ishita's effect on Raman.they settled down on the couch and after sometime amma said- r u thinking the same .
Appa- yes,Raman is shattered beyond words just because ishu broke his friendship .
Amma- isn't it too much.ishu bahut choti hai vishwa,aur woh ladka usse pagalon ki tarah pyaar karne lagaa hai.don't u think we shouldn't allow him to meet ishu anymore aur waise bhi ishi ne usse friendship tod li hai.
Appa- u know madhu,I too thought the same seeing his craziness for ishu.but then I thought,will he able to survive without ishu.yes we r her parent and want best for ishu,but think about toshiji .being a mother,she too can't see raman in so much pain.mujhe samajh mein nahi aa raha kya karun.ek taraf Raman ki deewangi ishu ke liye badh rahi hai aur dusri taraf agar hum usse alag kar de ishu se toh pata nahi woh kya karega khud ko.but one thing I know for sure that in both cases he will never harm our daughter.
Madhu- what do u want to say.we will allow him to love ishu.ishu bachchi hai abhi,usse achche bure ki samajh nahi hai,woh ladka hai aur ishita bachchi.we cant ignore this fact.kal ko usne kuch ulta seedha kar diya toh hamari bachchi ko.I think we should not pressurise her to keep friendship with him.achcha hi hua tut gayi.yes u can think I am being selfish but vishwa i don't want any trouble for my baby.
Vishwa- our ishu is very mature madhu and Raman is a responsible boy.he will never hurt her in any way.I think we should talk with ishu to mend her relationship with Raman.
Madhu- but vishwa.
Vishwa- just think once as Raman's mother not ishita's mother.agar ishita ki jagah Raman tumhara bachcha hota toh,kya tab bhi tum yahin kehti ki achcha hua unki friendship tut gayi.
Madhu- I don't care vishwa,mujhe charity karne ka shaq nahi hai.I just want my girl safe.mujhe Raman dangerous lagta hai,ishita ke liye uski deewangi mujhe darati hai.
Vishwa- u trust me naa,I will not let anyone harm ishu.usse kabhi kuch nahi hoga.
Madhu- r u taking his responsibility.
Vishwa- yes i am taking responsibilty of raman.coz i know raman can never hurt her aur agar mujhe aisa lagaa then I myself will make them apart but for now ,Raman is too fragile to be separated from ishita .let me go and talk to ishita,usse samjhna hoga ki it's not good for him .aur dosti aise nahi khatam ki jaati.
Saying so Appa went to ishita's room only to see her crying .
Appa went to her and said hugging her- don't cry kanna but u shouldn't have done this.Raman ka kya haal hua ,he was crying so bitterly.tumhe aisa nahi karna chahiye tha.
Ishita- I know appa,I did wrong with him.but I don't have any other option appa.woh padhna nahi chahte and u always told that everyone should study.
Appa- but u can't judge ur friends only on this basis.
Ishita- I am not judging or doing anything appa.I am just trying to make him study.
Appa- I didn't get it.
Ishita- see appa,I know him ,he can do anything for me.and when I told him that I will break my friendship just because he is not studying, dekhiyega woh padhne lag jayenge.
Appa- what??u did this just to make him study.
Ishita- yes appa,I know he will start studying for me.
Appa- that's so good kanna but he is not able to concentrate on his study,because of his dark past.
Ishita- I know appa,it's hard to forget our bitter past.but aage toh badhna hot hai naa,koshish toh karna hota hai naa.aap hi kehte ho naa,koshish karne walon ki haar nahi hoti.I am just giving it a try.
Appa- mera baby itna samajhdaar kab se ho gaya.
Ishita - I got this maturity from u appa.
Appa- God bless u bachcha.he said kissing her forehead .then he went down and told everything to madhu.she was shocked to hear the maturity of ishu.then they called toshiji and asked about Raman.she told them that he is sitting silently in his room.amma told toshiji about ishita's plan.
Toshiji- I think she is correct,may be now he will try to concentrate on his studies.his condition is bad but her idea is good.only ishita has the power to change him.thank u so much madhu for doing so much for Raman.koi nahi karta kisi ke liye itna jitna aap log kar rahen hai.
Amma appa look at each other and said- as a parent ,it's our duty to help u.saying so they hung the call.
At night Raman had few bites and he slept without talking to toshiji.ishita too had a little dinner and she slept.
Next day raman got ready and went to ishita's house but she didn't go to school.infact she send a leave application while appa talk with principal to give a week time to Raman.
Two days passed like this,everyday Raman stand and wait in front of her house just to get a glimpse of her.but ishita didn't meet him even once.she is even not ready to listen to him.everyday he came to meet her but she always went inside seeing him,still he came to get a glimpse of her.
After half an hour ,she came in her balcony.he waved his hand and she get inside seeing him.
Raman- gudiya please listen to me just once.he shouted almost crying but she didn't stopped.
Raman- why u r doing this to me.u know u r my only lifeline then why u r doing this to me.he said crying and went slowly from there.
Ishita who was seeing him behind the curtains, was too in tear seeing him in tears.
Ishita- trust me Raman,it's for ur good only.she said wiping her tears.
It was three days since ishra met,at first raman tried to be strong but slowly the loneliness start engulfing him and he start loosing his strength.the pain of living without ishita started eating him and at last ,he fainted suddenly in the evening scaring toshiji to wits.she called iyers asap and took Raman hospital.she was crying throughout the way.
She got Raman admitted and doctor start checking him,that's when iyers came running along with ishita.
Iyers stop to console toshiji while ishita ran to see him.she was crying ever since she heard the news but now she was horrified seeing his condition.
Doctors were giving him injections while he wasn't responding at all.
Doc- we r trying our best but his BP is very low and he is not at all responding.if he don't respond then it will be hard to save him.
All were shocked to hear this.ishita start crying bitterly and said- it's all because of me.main unse nahi mili toh dekho appa kya ho gaya.Maine kitni badi galti kar di.Raman mujhse gussa ho kar jaa rahe hai.
Appa hugged her and said- it's not ur fault but ours.we shouldn't have played with his feelings like this.hume samjhna chahiye tha that he is not that strong.
Toshiji- agar usse kuch ho gaya toh main Mar jaaungi.all were crying when a nurse came and asked- he is murmuring gudiya's name in sleep.who is gudiya.doctor is calling her.
Appa- she is his gudiya,chalo ishu.
Both went inside and saw him saying gudiya again and again.
Doc- u r gudiya,come and talk with him.may be that can help him in responding.
Appa- ishu,darna mat.u have told me naa that Raman can do anything for u then trust urself.he will even fight against death for u.go and bring him back.
Ishita nodded and went to him.she held his hand and his BP start increasing like he was waiting for his touch only.
Ishita- I am sorry raman.Maine aapko hurt kiya but I just want to make u study .aap please mujhe maaf kar dijiye and come back to me Raman.please Raman ,I am so sorry.please Raman wapas aa jaiye.she said crying holding his hand.
Raman start responding to her touches and soon his BP start becoming normal.doctor have him few more injections while ishita was holding his hand continuously.
After a hour,he finally opened his eyes only to see her sitting in front of him.
Raman- tum aa gayi gudiya.
Ishita- yes I came,sorry I left u like this.but all I want u to study.main aapko padhte hue dekhna chahti thi.
Raman- aur main sirf tumhe dekhna chahta hoon.and for that I can do anything.if u want me to study ,I will do it for u.tum Jo kahogi woh karunga par please mujhe kabhi iss tarah chod kar mat jaana.I can't take this loneliness .
Ishita- no I will never leave u again ,sorry.
Raman smiled a little and said- it's OK gudiya.now smile a little aise rote hue achchi nahi lagti tum.
Ishita smiled a little making Raman smile too .while their parents was happy seeing them happy and safe.
