Raman went out of the house in anger, took out his bicycle and went out of the gate, while Toshiji was just looking at him with moist eyes.
Toshiji-tu kyun nahi samjhta puttar, tera wahan jaana jaruri hai, yes I agree that they never turn to look at us after bhalla ji left us but still they r ur grandparents, my in laws, I just can't break all the ties with them. I am their daughter in law, I had to take u to them. She said and sat on the couch nearby.
On the other hand, raman was riding the bicycle in anger and in rush his cycle was about to bang into the car, when the car got stopped.
Raman sighed in relied, when the door of the car opened and ishita came out of the car and said in worried tone-r u OK, aise kaise cycle chala rahe the aap, kuch ho jaata toh. How can u be so careless. She was scolding while Raman was just looking at her.
Seeing getting no response, she said little louder-raman, r u even listening what I am saying. Jawab dijiye, kyun aap iss tarah, she couldn't complete as raman took her in a bone crushing hug. Ishita got startled by his action and tried to break the hug. But he hugged her more tightly saying-please kuch mat kaho, kuch mat Karo. For few minutes, just let me feel u. Please gudiya, just for few minutes. He said in a restless voice.
Ishita felt his restlessness and didn't broke the hug. She just let him hug trying to calm down his restless heart.
After sometime, he realised their position .he broke the hug in a jiffy and said -I am sorry, I went overboard. I shouldn't have hugged u in mid of the road. Really sorry.
Ishita-kya hua raman, aap pareshan lag rahen hai.
Raman -kyunki main pareshan hoon.
Ishita-tell me what happened.
Raman -chalo mere saath, then I will tell u.
Ishita went to her car and told the driver to go, she will go with raman.
Driver look at Raman and said-achche se cycle chalaiyega. Baby ji ko chot nahi lagni chahiye.
Raman nodded and said-aap fikr mat kariye, I will take care of her. Saying so he make ishita sit on his cycle and both went away.
After riding for sometime, raman took her to a cafe and ordered pastries and spring roll for themselves.
Ishita-kya hua raman, bataiye mujhe.
Raman looked at ishita and said -they want to meet me, and maa want to take me to them. But main nahi jaana chahta, maa samjhti nahi hai, mujhe ghuttan hoti hai wahan. I feel suffocating. He said feeling restless while she hold his hand and asked-kaun raman, aapke papa.
Raman made a disgusting face and said-unke paas toh main kabhi naa jaaun.even if he is on his death bed, he was saying with much hatred in his eyes when ishita closed his mouth and said-dont say like this. He is ur dad.
Raman -yes the one who left us to die. The one who left his child to die in isolation. I hate him ishita, I really do. He said with moist eyes.
Ishita-if u hats him so much, then why u r so hurt just by remembering him. I think u should try to forget him and move ahead in life.
Raman -I am trying ishita, trust me I am trying. But jab bhi koshish karts hoon, something came infront of me, jo mujhe unki yaad dila deta hai.
Ishita-kisne kya kiya.
Raman -maa ne, she want me to take to my grandparents house. Mere grandpa ki tabiyat bahut kharab hai, and he want to see me before his last breath. He said looking down.
Ishita-and?
Raman -what do u mean by and, main nahi jaana chahta. U know when Papa left us for that lady, they were on his side. Hamari takleef se unhe koi lena dena nahi tha. Maa ne itne dukh uthaye mujhe palne mein, meri dekh rekh mein, koi nahi aaya then why today they want me to go to them. Mujhe nahi jaana. He said angrily.
Ishita hold his hand and said-dekhiye raman, inn sab ke baare mein main bahut toh nahi bol sakti, coz I am too understand to all this. But one thing I will surely say that if u know that if mother did so much effort for u. Then go for her, if not for anyone else.
Raman -what u want to say, ki tujhe jaana chahiye.
Ishita-mujhe nahi pata ki aapko jaana chahiye ki nahi, but I know one thing for sure ki agar aunty chahti hai toh aapko jaana chahiye. She had done everything for u and now it's sure time to do for her. Aap kisi aur ki nahi but unki khushi ke liye chale jaiye.
Raman thought for sometime and said-i am just not getting what to do. Main naa unn logon ko maaf karna chahta hoon aur naa maa ki dukhi dekh sakta hoon.
Ishita-i think at this one u want advice from someone who will decode neutrally. Come let's go.
Raman -kahan.
Ishita-appa ke office. Wahin aapko sahi advice denge.
Raman -i think u r right, let's go. He said and they went without having anything .
Soon they reached appa office and then in his cabin. Appa saw them and said-arey tum dono yahan, kuch chahiye kya.
Ishita-raman needs ur advice appa.
Appa-advice, kis baat par. Ok we will talk, first tell me tum log kuch khaoge.
Raman was about to deny when ishita said-noodles and hot chocolate.
Appa smiled and ordered noddles and hot chocolate for them. They he made Ishra comfortable and said-ab bolo .
Ishita open her mouth to say when appa said-kanna, let him talk. Aap chocolate khaoge.
Ishita nodded happily. Appa gave her a big dairy milk and said-aap bagal wale room mein khao aur TV dekho till we talk. Ok.
Ishita nodded and went eating the chocolate.
Appa-kanna, don't eat all, leave some for raman too. Ishita nodded and went.
Raman -i don't want appa.let her eat.
Appa-i am telling this so she don't eat the whole chocolate. Uske daant kharab ho jayenge. Ok now tell what's ur problem.
