PART 16
ishra were hugging each other tight when Raman felt ishita's weight on himself. Raman broke the hug and saw she was all on him. He didn't understand whether she fallen asleep or she just fainted. He picked her in his arms and took her to the bed. Then he called the doctor and the hotel staff to clean the mess she created.
After half an hour, the room was all cleaned while doctor was bandaging her wrist again which she had slit and her feet too as it was injured due to walking on broken pieces of vase.
Doc -i don't understand why u all r not able to control her .she is go on harming herself again and again. She is already weak and her this kind of behaviour will only add to her miseries. Do u all want to loose her. He asked making everyone nod in no in fear.
Doc -i don't know why u all r not understanding that she needs immense love and care to get fine. Her sickness is more mental then physical. Aap sab ko inka bahut dhyaan rakhna hoga. Just try to keep her happy. It's very needed to keep her fine.
Appa -we also want her to be fine, that's why we want to send her to rehab, taaki uski sharab peene ki aadat chut jaaye.
Doc -achcha,matlab ussi ka nateeja hai yeh. See I will not say that u r completely wrong, coz rehab is a good place to stay for quitting addictions but trust me being with family is even better. Aap chahte hai naa ki yeh sahi ho jaaye, then just be with her. Trust me a father's arms r a place where child forgets everything, phir chahe woh gham ho yaa takleef. Usse khud se dur mat kijiye. He said to appa making his feel guilty.
Then he look at amma and said -aap maa hai naa, how u even allowed everyone to send her to rehab. U really think she will be fine without family support. Aap apni beti ki saath rahiye, very soon she will be fine. He said to amma making her guilty too then he look at raman and toshiji and said -aap log toh sasural wale hai toh aap log ko kuch nahi keh sakta but still I want to say that aapne shaadi ki hai, u should be with her in every thick and thin of ur life. Apni responsility se palla chadna easy hota hai, mushkil hota hai usse nibhana.apni biwi ko rehab bhejna easy hai mr bhalla but it will be better if u stay with her. Kyunki Ek life partner ke saath, raasta kitna bhi mushkil ho, asaan lagne lagta hai. He said making Raman nod his head.
Appa was about to tell the doctor that Raman was the one opposing to send her to rehab but Raman made him silent.
Raman -u r right, actually it's my responsibility to take care of her, and I will do that.agli baar aapko shikayat ka mauka nahi dunga.
Doc -its good that u r thinking this, kyunki aapki biwi bahut ho weak hai. Aap unhe healthy food khilaiye aur unka khayal rakhiye. Rehab will not help but ur love and care will surely help. U know main aise har kisi ko nahi samjhata but aapko samjha raha hoon, coz this is the fourth time in three days that I am visiting the same patient. Inki haalat bahut kharab hai. She really needs family's love and care. He said and get up to go. He gave a prescription to raman and told him to get the medicines. Raman nodded and went out with the doctor while amma, appa and Toshiji stayed back with ishita.
Raman was going out with doctor when he said -ur wife needs rest, Maine joh dawa di hai ,usme seductive hai, she will sleep for atleast a day, Aap ghabraiyega mat. Unke dimaag ko rest ki zarurat hai and she is not able to sleep because of her addiction, that's why I have given her pills to make her sleep. Hopefully she will be more fine after she woke up. He said making Raman understand. Both went out of the hotel, doctor to go back while Raman to get medicine.
On the other hand, Ishita was sleeping peacefully while her parent were sitting beside her looking at her puffy face and bandaged wrist and feet feeling guilty for always forcing her to accept their decision.
Amma -vishwa, what we have did with our ishu. Humne usse kitni takleef di.
Appa -yes, Raman is right. Its our fault ki hamari beti itni dukhi hai.even doctor was also blaming us, hamari hi galti hai sab ko hamari beti itni takleef mein hai. He said caressing her face.
Some time passed, amma appa were sitting beside ishita caressing her face while she opened her eyes feeling someone's touch and got scared seeing her parent. She pushed then and screamed Raman's name at the top of her voice.
Raman has went to bring medicine for her so he didn't came but toshiji came running and asked -kya hua puttar.
Ishita opened her arms for toshiji like a kid and said -bacha lo maa,mujhe nahi jaana rehab. She said trying to hide herself from her parent.
Toshiji felt bad for them and ishita too. She went to ishita and hugged her tight and said -naa bachcha, nobody will send u to rehab.
Ishita look at her parent and said -they will send me to rehab.
Amma appa cried seeing their daughter scared of them and amma said -no kanna, we will not send u anywhere. Aaja, she said opening her arms.
Ishita nodded in no and said -i don't trust u guys anymore. She said and hugged toshiji more tightly while her parent were shocked to hear this from their only daughter.
Amma start crying and said -nahi kanna, don't say like this. We r ur parent, we will never send u away from us. Will always keep u with us.
Ishita -jhooth, Aap jhooth bol rahen hai, I know u will send me to rehab again. She was saying hugging toshiji tight when Toshiji said caressing her face -naa puttar, aisa nahi hai. We all love u so much, hum sab tujhse bahut pyaar karte hai. She was making ishita understand but she wasn't going to them. Amma appa was just standing there thinking what they have done to ishita, when raman entered the room.
Ishita saw him and said -raman. She said opening her arms for him.
Raman came to her and said hugging her -kya hua bachcha.
Ishita hugged him tight and said -i don't want to go to rehab.
Raman caressed her face and said -nobody is sending u to rehab. We all love u alot to let u go. Tu chup ho jaa, stop panicking. He said caressing her hair while she hide more into him.
Raman signalled everyone to go outside while he stayed back with her. He ordered breakfast for her and make her eat, then he gave her medicine and pat her slowly. Very soon she was in deep sleep. He make her sleep comfortably on the bed and went outside.
Amma was crying while appa was also feeling guilty for always forcing ishita as per their will.
Raman sat next to amma and said -amma, it's not the time to cry but the time to make things better. I talked to doctor,he said that she is creating fuss over everything just because her mind is tired and is not able to sleep because of her addiction. Her craving for drinks is not letting her sleep. Doctor ne usse sleeping pills di hai,now she will sleep and hopefully she will be better soon. Amma she is fighting with herself for quitting alcohol aur hume uski taaqat banna hai kamzori nahi. We just have to make her believe that we r always with her. Samajh rahe hai naa aap log.
Everyone nodded in yes.
Raman -so we should have to make things normal like before and for that we have to make her normal.and for that I have decided something.
Toshiji -kya puttar.
Raman -i have decided to start everything afresh and for that I want to marry her again. He said making everyone look at each other.
Appa -shaadi.
Raman nodded and said -yes appa,i want to marry her again. May be this will be a new start for us.
Amma -thats a good move, I am ready.
Toshiji -even I am.
Raman -toh main arrangements shuru karun. Yahin paas mein Ek shiv mandir hai, wahan shaadiyan hoti hai. Shall I go and meet the priest to know about the bookings and all.
Appa -chalo main bhi chalta hoon.
Raman got up and said -ishita will sleep for long. Let her rest, hum dono jaa kar mandir mein arrangements check kar lete hai then u guys can go shopping.
Toshiji and amma nodded saying OK, while raman and appa went to the shiv temple.
Toshiji and amma sat together to make lists for the things they will need for their marriage.
It was more then two hours since Raman and appa has went, amma and Toshiji was waiting for them. And soon they showed up.
Appa told them that priest gave a date of day after tomorrow, they have booked the temple premises for marriage. And also gave money to do the arrangements.
Amma -chalo tab humne bhi list bana li hai. Let's go and shop things for the bride and the groom.
Toshiji got up and said excited -haan main bhi apni ishita puttar ke liye gehne aur kapde kharidungi. She said and soon amma-appa and Toshiji went together for shopping while Raman stayed back with ishita. He went and sat near to her. He lovingly caressed her face and said -see what I am doing, making preparations for our marriage. Shayad ab tujhe yakeen aa jaaye that how much I love u and will never leave u alone. He said and pecked her temple softly and snuggle more into her. Soon he was sleeping hugging her tight while she too turned and cuddled more into Raman.
Soon it was evening, Raman got up feeling chillness around him and went to close the windows but stopped seeing the beautiful weather. He smiled and stand at the window.
Raman -yeh mausam shayad hamesha se itna suhana tha but I am liking it for the first time, coz for the first time u r with me shitu. Tumhare bina zindagi kitni adhuri thi, sab kuch ho kar bhi kitna akela tha main, glad u come back and now we will always be together and happy. He said looking at her and finally closed the window.
He was busy in admiring her while she was busy in sleeping carelessly all over the bed. He smiled seeing her and was covering her properly when there was a knock on the door. He went out closing the door and open the main door, and saw their parents standing with lots of shopping bags.
Raman -pura bazaar kharid liya kya.
Toshiji -kuch bhi, we just did the important shopping. Ek toh dusra shehar, it was too difficult to shop things herd but we adjusted. See what we brought for u two. She said and start showing stuffs to raman while he ordered tea and snacks for them.
All had tea and snacks together talking about the functions to be done. All thought to have a small mehendi and sangeet function tomorrow while haldi and marriage the next day.
They decided and arranged almost everything for all the functions and then all went to their respective room after having their dinner together. All were very excited for ishra remarriage while Raman was waiting to see the spark in her eyes after hearing about their remarriage.
All went to their room and raman settled next to ishita.
Raman -kitba soyengi jaan, uth jaa,see how excited I am to tell u that we r going to get married again. I just want to see the big smile on ur face hearing about our remarriage. He said but she was just sleeping. Raman kept her head on his chest and said -achcha so jaa aaj, waise bhi I will not let u sleep from day after tomorrow. Will love u alot, alot and alot. Itna ki tujhe thak jayegi aur pakk jayegi mere pyaar se. He said and smiled. Like this he talked for long with sleeping ishita sharing his every pain, grief and happiness with her and finally slept hugging her waiting for a new dawn.
