Ishra were hugging each other tight when raman broke the hug and scoop her face in his palm. She closed her eyes in anticipation while he bend and kissed her temple. Then he bend a little and kissed her closed eyes while she clutched her gown in her fist. He bend a little and finally captured her lips for their first ever kiss, the kiss which not only touched each other's lips but their soul too. He took his hand to her hand and entwined his fingers into her. He start kissing her softly while she released her hand and slide it into his hair. She start kissing him back caressing his hair. Raman too grabbed her waist and pulled her more inti him. They sucked,chewed and kissed each other's lips for long holding each other tight. After a long kiss which felt like eternity, they finally broke the kiss in need of air and she settled her head on his chest while he wrapped his arms around her hugging her tight.
Both stayed in each other's arms for long and finally raman said -chal, party mein. Aaj hamari engagement hogi.
Ishita stopped him and asked, today.
Raman-yes, today only we will get engaged and then will get married in the nearest possible date. I don't want to leave u now, even for a second. Tu meri jaan hai, aur tujhe apna banana hai mujhe, jald se jald. Chal. He said and was taking her out when she stopped him and motioned him saying, u go, I am just coming.
Raman-no way, tu phir kuch naatak karegi. Tu chal mere saath.
Ishita motioned -i will not do anything, u go, I am just coming.
Raman-kya kaam hai, abhi kar, saath mein chalenge.
Ishita motioned -my hair got messed up, my lipstick has wiped out. Let me look presentable, then.i will go.
Raman smiled and said -oh, OK, u do whatever u want to do. While I am waiting. He was saying when someone knocked the door. Raman opened the door and saw their mothers standing there.
Raman-maa, Aap??hum aa hi rahi the.
Toshiji -ishita puttar maan gayi??she asked to which Raman nodded. Their mothers smiled and get in. Toshiji cupped Ishita's face and said -maine kaha tha naa, raman tujhe apna bana kar rahega. Chal ab jaldi se mere ghar ki bahu ban kar aa jaa. She said and kissed ishita's temple while she bend to touch toshiji's feet only to be hugged by her.
Toshiji gave a lehenga to ishita and said -isse pehen kar taiyaar ho jaa, we all r waiting for u. Aaj hi teri aur raman ko engagement hogi aur Ek hafte mein shaadi. Maine aur tumhari amma ne pandit ji se baat kar li hai. Sab kuch arrange karna bhi shuru kar diya hai, now we just want u two to get married soon.
Ishita look at her and asked about Neelima.
Toshiji -she is fine, as she too don't want to marry so soon. Her mother was also forcing her. They went back, chalo jaldi se ready ho kar aa jao. Madhu tu jaldi se meri bahu ko ready karke laa, we r waiting. She said and took raman with her.
Raman went giving ishita a flying kiss making her blush. Amma hugged ishita tight and said -i am very happy ishu, finally u will get whatever u desire off. I am really very happy for u. She said and start making ishita ready.
After half an hour, ishita came with amma all decked up in a light pink lehenga with green dupatta along with matching accessories, her hair was tied beautifully in a bun. She was looking down when she felt hold on her hand. She raised her head only to see Raman holding her hand. He was wearing a blue sherwani and smiling looking at her. She too smiled while he took her to the stage.
Toshiji gave ring to Raman after pandit ji did puja of both the rings.
Raman hold Ishita's hand and slipped the ring in her ring finger. She look down blushing while he kissed back of her palm. Everyone clapped for them and amma give ishita ring to make raman wear.
Ishita too slipped ring in his finger, he smiled fully and took her in a bear hug. He lovingly pecked her temple while their parents look at them with admiration. They were just so happy seeing their kids getting their happiness. Ishra went to their parents and seek their blessings. All blessed Ishra for a long and peaceful life together.
Then Mr bhalla and appa hugged each other while Toshiji hugged amma and said -aakhir hum samdhi ban hi gaye.
Amma nodded in yes and said -thank u Santoshi, meri bachchi ko uski kami ke saath accept karne ke liye, mujhe toh lag raha tha kuch dino se ki main ishu ko phir kabhi khush nahi dekh paungi, but now she is happy, pure dil se, aur iska sirf Ek reason hai, Raman. Thank u again Santoshi. She said with moist eyes while Toshiji hold her hand and said -why u r saying this, agar ishita ko khushi raman hai, toh mere puttar ki khushi bhi sirf ishita hai. Toh Maine joh bhi kiya hai apne puttar ki khushi ke liye kiya hai. So no need to thanks. She said and hugged each other again while Ishra were busy in rejoicing their moment.
Raman took ishita to a corner and said hugging her -aakhir maine apna gift le hi liya. Aisa gift joh zindagi bhar meri saath rahega, jisse main zindagi bhar preserve karke, sabse chupa kar apne dil mein safely rakhunga and it's my jaan, my babu, my ishita. He said kissing her temple again while she tip-toed and captured his lips for a passionate kiss making him surprised.
They kiss for long and finally they broke the kiss. She wishes him, happy birthday again and hide in his chest blushing.
Both were lost in each other when Mr bhalla called them for dinner. They went to their family and all had dinner together discussing about Ishra marriage.
Toshiji -shaadi ki date Ek hafte baad ki hai, toh hume rituals kal parso se hi shuru karne honge.
Amma-haan santoshi, pandit ji se puch kar rituals start karte hai.
Toshiji -changa, tab kal pandit ji ke paas chalte hai. Ab main bas jaldi se ishita ko apne ghar le jaana chahti hoon. She said making Ishra smiled.
All had dinner and soon the party was wrapped up. All went to their respective rooms to sleep while Raman took ishita out for bike ride. At first ishita was hesitant due to last incident, but later she went with him after his insistence.
