Ishita was crying bitterly remembering his soothing words and touches, and then remembering her bitter past.
Ishita -no ishu, u can't allow him or anyone to come near u. U have to stay away from every emotion. U can't feel love for anyone. I have to avoid raman, mujhe unhe khud se dur karna hoga, yes I have to stop myself from thinking about him. She said to herself and thought something. She called her junior and told him to take care of all her dates for the next few days as she is not well and will not come to court. At first her junior was shocked as she hardly take any off but then thought may be she is genuinely unwell and want to rest. He told her to take care of herself while he will take care of her professional commitments.
Ishita packed a little bag for hersepf and ruhi with few of their cloths and her laptop and went out of the house taking little Ruhi with herself as she don't want stay with in her house also.
Ishita drive out of the city and checked in a hotel.she didn't informed anyone about her whereabout and went to her room trying hard to shrug off Raman's thought but little did she knows that he in within her and she can't stop thinking about him.
On the other hand, Raman thought to call her only to get his call unanswered. He went to her office to meet her only to get know that she is not coming to office.
Two days passed like this, Raman called her numerous times only to no answer. He was dying to see her, to hear her voice making him realise that he has fallen in love with her madly and irrecoverably. He was trying every way to get in touch with ishita but she was go on avoiding his calls.
On the other hand, ishita too was very restless.every time her phone rings and shows his name, her heart skip a beat. She so wanted to talk to him but everytime she avoid his call.
The most happiest soul was Ruhi. She was very happy getting her mother all for herself. In her little life of fifteen months, she never got ishita for so long all together. But now when she had ishita, she was way too happy. They were getting out and enjoying together, shopping and eating. Ishita too was trying hard to enjoy with ruhi but Raman's love confession was ringing in her mind continuously.
After two long days, ishita finally realised that she can't ran away from his thoughts and can't ignore her work also. So she decided to go back, and told the same to Ruhi. Though Ruhi was bit sad but then got normal as she already had much fun in the past two days.
Ishita was getting ready wearing her white shirt and lawyer coat while her mind was still on raman only.
Ishita-u have to be strong ishu, he can't just rule over u like this. U can't ignore it work for him. Jab koi nahi tha tere paas only ur work was with u. U just can't ignore it because of raman. And no-one in the world can effect u like this, no-one can scatter u again. U r strong ishu, very strong. Tumhe koi tod nahi sakta, naa pyaar se naa nafrat se. U has feeling only for one person in the world and that is ur daughter, Ruhi. U r allowed to feel only to Ruhi, no one else. U r strong and u don't need anyone else in ur life. She thought to herself and closed her eyes to shrug off his thoughts, only to fail miserably again.
After an hour, ishru were going back to their house, Ruhi was sleeping in the passenger seat while ishita was driving and the back seat was filled with lots of shopping bags.
On the other hand, toshiji was busy in her work when Raman hugged her from behind and said-i love u maa, u r the best.
Toshiji smiled hearing this and asked-i love u too mera bachcha.
Raman -aap naa duniya ki sabse cute maa ho. I love u alot se bhi jyada alot.
Toshiji understood that he is buttering her for some work and said-what u want from me.
Raman -what do u mean by what I want. Can't I say u, I love u, just like that .arey aap meri maa, I can love u without any motive.
Toshiji nodded her head and said-yes,this is also right.u can love me like that also. but right now, u want something. Tell me what u want.
Raman -ishita mujhse baat nahi kar rahi, she is avoiding my phone. Please call her once naa. I want to hear her voice.
Toshiji looked at him in shock and asked-kyun, aisa kya kiya tune .
Raman -i proposed her. He said calmly making Toshiji shocked.
Toshiji-kya, tune usse propose kar diya.
Raman nodded and said-i love her maa. Mujhe bahut achchi lagti hai woh.
Toshiji-achchi toh mujhe bhi bahut lagti hai. Infact bhalla ji want to make her our daughter in law, we were about to ask u about her bit then her weird behaviour. So we stopped thinking may be u don't like her attitude.
Raman -nahi maa, she is very good. I think something wrong happened with her. Don't know why, I tried to find about her hiring a detective.
Toshiji -yeh tune galat kiya puttar, usse pata chal jaata toh.
Raman -pata chal jaata, she got to know about it. Aur uss jhansi ki rani ne dobara mera jabda hila diya. So I had to confess my feelings for her socha woh khush ho jayegi. But woh gussa ho gayi. Now she is not talking to me. Aap please usse phone Karo naa. And call her to today's function also.
Toshiji-woh aayegi.
Raman -agar aap kahoge toh shayad aa jaaye. Please maa, for ur puttar. He said cutely buttering his mother. To which toshiji only nodded and said-ok.
Raman happily gave her, her phone and she called ishita. It ranged for sometime and finally ishita said-hello, whose this.
She has just came out of her house after dropping Ruhi home and was now going to court.
Toshiji and Raman looked at each other happily and Raman signalled her to talk to which she nodded.
Toshiji-hello ishita puttar.
Ishita-ji bol rahi hoon, Aap kaun.
Toshiji -main toshi bhalla.
Ishita got alert hearing her name knowing well who must have told her to call her.
Ishita-ji aunty ji. Kuch kaam tha kya. Woh actually I am driving.
Raman glared hearing this and was about to say something when Toshiji closed his mouth and asked what with her eyes.
Raman -tell her to stop, iss pagal madrasan ko accident karwana hai. He said slowly in his mother's ear.
Toshiji nodded and said-baat toh jaruri thi, if u could stop somewhere and listen once.
Ishita who was about to drive got worried hearing this and thought may be she genuinely need her help.
Ishita-ji aunty ji boliye.
Toshiji-can u come to our house today.
Ishita-main, aapse ghar. Kyun.
Toshiji -actually kuch function hai.
Ishita-its must be ur family function, what I will do there.
Toshiji-actually shaadi hai.if u could take out sometime from ur busy schedule. I will not force u, but will he really happy if u come here. It will start from 4 o'clock. She said making ishita shocked. She don't know how to react. She just said,ok I will try and hung the call making Toshiji and Raman happy.
