Toshiji -i will answer if anyone ask about ur relationship with raman. U don't worry just go and get ready.
Ishra nodded and went inside while Ruhi went with Mr bhalla to see the beautiful decorations which was fascinating her since the time they came.
Though ishita nodded to get ready but she was still reluctant to sit with raman in the puja as she don't want anyone to question bhallas because of them. Raman was looking at her and was understanding why she was reluctant. He thought to make her understand but thought to do something instead of talking. Thinking so he went to his room while ishita was sent to guest room, where a red saree for her was kept along with matching accessories. Ishita was feeling reluctant to wear all that. She was just standing when Toshiji entered the room and asked -ki hoya puttar, u r not getting ready. Pasand nahi aayi kya saree.
Ishita -nahi maa, bahut sundar hai. Sab kuch bahut achcha hai, but still thodi awkwardness hai. I don't belongs to ur family naa. Itna sab kuch lena ajeeb lagta hai.
Toshiji cupped her face and said -aisa kyun keh rahi hai puttar, jab mera puttar hi tera ho gaya toh yeh sab toh bahut choti cheezein hai.
Ishita -maine aapka beta nahi cheena, maa.
Toshiji -mujhe pata hai, tujhe aisa kyun lagaa ki aisa sochti houngi. Aisa kuch nahi hai, agar tumhe mera puttar mila hai toh usse bhi toh badle mein Ek parivar mila hai. Tu mili, ek choti si gudiya mili hai. Toh sauda toh faayda ka hi hua naa.
Ishita eyes got moist hearing this and said -aap log bahut achche hai maa,mujh jaisi aurat ko apna liya, jisse duniya chod hui kehti thi. Aap logon ne itna maan sammaan diya ki samajh mein nahi aata ki yeh sapna hai yaa haqeeqat.
Toshiji -yeh sach hai puttar, ab jyada wakilon wale sawaal naa kar, jaldi se ready ho jaa.
Ishita nodded and start getting ready while Toshiji went down stairs to complete her work after signalling raman that she make ishita understand. Raman got satisfied and went to get ready.
Soon ishita got ready wearing the heavy red saree, her hair was tied in a beautiful bun with gajra all around it. She was looking beautiful with matching accessories. She was busy in admiring herself in the mirror when her eyes fell on her partition. She took her hand to her partition and touched it.
Ishita -i can't wait to fill my partition with sindoor of ur name, Raman. Jaldi se mujhe apna banaa lijiye. She was talking to herself but someone else too heard it, who was coming to her room. He took steps backward and went to bring something.
Ishita was just looking at herself when she felt someone's hand on her waist.
Ishita looked down and asked -kaisi lag rahi hoon.
Raman kissed her shoulder and said -sabse sundar.
Ishita -sach mein?? she asked blushing.
Raman -haan, tum sach mein bahut sundar lag rahi ho, bas ek kami hai.
Ishita turned to him and asked -kya.
Raman -yeh, he said and filled her partition with sindoor while she closed her eyes feeling his touch. both were standing in the same position living the moment.
After sometime, which felt like eternity, she opened her eyes and realised what he did.
Ishita -yeh kya kiya aapne, Raman.
Raman hugged her tight and said-apna birthday gift le liya.
Ishita -but iss tarah, bina kisi se puche.
Raman broke the hug and asked-u want to marry me naa.
Ishita nodded in yes.
Raman -toh kisi aur se kya puchna, waisi bhi for me u r my wife always. So I filled ur partition, ab naa koi tumse koi sawaal puchega, aur naa hi tumhe kisi ke sawalon ka darr rahega, coz I have given u right on me, aaj se jab tak mera naam rahega, tumhara naam uske saath juda rahega. And u can fill ur partition with sindoor of my name He said making her realise that he has heard her talk .
Ishita -woh main toh, bas aise hi. Iski zarurat nahi thi. She said reluctantly.
Raman -zarurat thi, meri ishita koi khwahish karein aur main usse pura naa karun, aisa toh ho hi nahi sakta. Aur yeh toh tumhara haq hai, if u have given urself to me then it's ur right to own me, claim me. He said taking her in a tight hug . She too closed her eyes feeling his touch forgetting all her insecurities and everything.
They stayed in the hug for sometime when Raman felt wetness on his chest making him realise that she is crying.
He broke the hug and said -hey jaan, why r u crying. Aren't u happy.
Ishita -cant tell u how happy I am Raman. Today u gave me the world. Aapne mujhe sirf apni biwi ka darja nahi diya but u gave me a reason to smile forever. Murugan aapki hamesha khush rakhen, may he bless u always with good luck and lots of happiness. I love u so much raman and just don't have the world to tell u what u mean to me. She said cupping his face and then tiptoed and kissed his temple. He closed his eyes feeling her soft lips on his temple. He picked her in his arms and said -i love u too jaan, aur tumhara hamesha mere saath rehna iss baat ki guarantee hai ki main hamesha khush rahunga. So it's better if u stop crying on this happy day. He said wiping her tears and pecked her temple. She hugged him again while he wrapped his arms around her.
Botg were lost in each other when they heard sound of anklet. They look at each other and then at the door and saw Ruhi walking on the corridor searching for raman. She was wearing a baby pink lehenga with her hair tied in fountain. A small maangtika was tucked with her high pony, while she was wearing small studs with bangles in her hand and anklet in her feet. A small bindi was adorning her forehead while she has applied kajal in her big eyes.
Ishra look at her, she was looking into Raman's room searching for him.
Raman -my baby is looking for me, let me go and just hug her tight.my chotu golgappa is looking adorable. He said and went to Ruhi. He picked her from back and said -lookibg for papa.
Ruhi chuckled at his voice and said yes nodding her head. Then she flaunt herself and said -luhi chaji, dadi chajayi. Luhi chundal.
Raman pecked her face lovingly and said -meri ruhi sabse sundar.
Ruhi smiled wholeheartedly at his compliment and hugged Raman tight. Raman too hugged her tight and was going to ishita when Toshiji called them.
Raman -lets go, maa is calling us.
Ishita -aap dono jaiye, maij abhi aati hoon. She said to which Raman nodded and went downstairs taking Ruhi along.
