Raman hung the call and hugged ishita tight who start crying loudly till the time he kept the phone back.
Raman caressed her back lovingly and said -hey jaan, why u r crying. Maine toh manaa kar diya naa. Ab kyun ro rahi ho. Chup ho jaa bachcha. He was saying while she was just crying hugging him tight. Raman was just hugging her tight waiting for her cries to lessen.
After long when her sobs lessen,she said meekly-mujhe akela toh nahi chodenge naa kabhi.
Raman -nahi jaan, how can I. Jab tumne mujhe nahi choda itne bure waqt mein, how can I leave u. I will never leave u alone.
Ishita -please never leave me alone, I don't have anyone other then u. Main mar jaungi aapke bina, sach mein nahi jee paaungi. She said and hugged Raman tightly.
Raman -why I will leave u, tu toh meri jaan hai, apni jaan ko chod kar kahan jaaunga main. Ab chup ho jaa, warna tere rone se baadh (flood) as jayega. He said smiling making her smile too. She hugged him tightly and said -i love u so much and u r a sweetheart.
Raman -love u too jaan.ab chal finish the food then we have to do our daily practise also.
Ishita nodded and both finished their food. After having food both went out to walk together on the empty road. It was their daily routine to walk few meters hand in hand enjoying the cold weather. Ishita was go on telling him what the local vendors were selling and they usually had something or other on the way.
After the walk, both went back and settled on the bed to end their day. Ishra were sleeping side by side, both were silent and laying down closing their eyes. Both was thinking that the other one is sleeping but both of them were awake and lost in their own thoughts.
Raman -i don't know what maa papa want from me. Mujhe apni zindagi se itna dur kar diya and now papa want me back just to head his project. Why they r hell bent to separate me from ishita. Can't they see how she loves me, how she is supporting me when all left me. Maine soch liya hai, chahe joh ho jaaye, chahe kitni bhi mushkil aa jaaye, I will never leave her. I can't see her crying, she was shivering like a dry leaf when Papa told me to come leaving her alone. No no I can never leave her and will never leave her. He thought and pulled ishita closer and said pecking her temple -i love u jaan, I love u alot. He said and hide her in himself.
Ishita snuggle more into him and start thinking -u think that u love me so much raman, but in real u love shagun not me. I don't know how I will live when u will get to know that it's me not Shagun. Kya aap mujhse nafrat karoge, for cheating me. Yaa phir aapke meri situation samjhoge. Will u ever understand that I really love u and want only u in my life nothing else. Kya aap kabhi mujhe, Ek naukarani ko apni biwi manenge. She was looking at him and was thinking. Tears were flowing continuously from her eyes, which she was wiping every now and then, and after sometime she too slept.
Few days passed normally, ishra were living happily together celebrating their sweet moments of togetherness, thought ishita was trying hard to be normal but the fear of loosing him forever and his reaction after knowing the truth was scaring her every now and then.
On the other hand, Mr bhalla appointed a detective to keep an eye on Ishra and give him every info about their activities. Few days the detective keep eye on them thouroughly but when he observed nothing much is happening in their life, he too become leinent. He too start enjoying the place on bhalla's money.
Days were passing , one morning,ishita was serving breakfast when her eyes fell on an advertisement. She picked the pamphlet and start reading it while Raman was calling her. Seeing no response from ishita ,Raman called her louder breaking her trance.
Ishita -haan ji, Aap kuch keh rahen the.
Raman -i was asking for paratha but where u were lost.
Ishita -i was reading an advertisement .
Raman -ad, kis cheez ka.
Ishita -its an ayurvedic clinic. It's written that they treat all kind of disease with herbs. Even lost vision can also be get back. Don't u think we should also go there once.
Raman -r u serious jaan. Yeh sab sirf kehne ki baatein hoti hai. Noone get his vision back. Aur waise bhi doctors have checked me and they have told that there is no chance to get my eyesight back.
Ishita sat on her knees near him and said holding his hand -i know Raman,aapko bharosha nahi hai inn sab par. But I have trust on ayurveda. Ho sakta hai kuch ho hi jaaye. And if not getting ur eyesight back, may be u get rid of this burning sensation which is troubling you from long. Please raman just for me, just once.
Raman thought for a while and said -ok as u say, yeh bhi karke dekh lete hai. He said smiling only to get a tight hug for ishita. She was really excited to visit to this ayurvedic clinic and want badly that raman's eyesight should come back.
That day she called the clinic and took appointment from the doctor. Next day, they got up early and went to the nearest temple.
They took blessings from the idol. Ishita prayed to make raman fit and fine while Raman just prayed to fulfill all wishes of her.
After taking blessings, they went to the clinic. They went inside to meet the doctor.
Ishita gave all the medical reports to the doctor and told him how Raman lost him eyesight due to the cracker burst near his eyes.
Doctor took raman inside to check his eyes thouroughly while ishita was just waiting for them to come out and give her some news.
Raman was inside for the whole day while ishita was just waiting for him.
At evening, they finally came out. Ishita got up and went to hold raman, he was semi conscious due to the effect of drugs. She made raman lay down on the bed and sat next to the doctor and asked -what happened doc, is there any chances to get his eyesight back.
Doc-see I won't lie, his eyes r in pretty bad condition. His eye tissue r much damage but we can give it a try.
Ishita looked at him hearing this, while he continued-we have some very good medicine and herbs through which we can try to treat him but it is a long procedure. It will take nearly two months. U have to take him here everyday, everyday from twelve to four, he will be under medication. We will give different herbs, which u have to give him at night. Aapko bahut mehnat karni hogi aur bahut patience rakhna hoga. Only then something can happen. R u ready for it.
Ishita thought for sometime and said -yes I am ready, I am ready to do anything to make him fine, bas ek baar keh dijiye that he will able to see again.
Doc -i can't guarantee but I will try my best. Aap bas vishwas rakhiye in ur god and on our treatment, he will able to see everything very soon. He said happily making ishita smile too.
