Ishita reached Chandigarh, got down from the bus and called her friend sheetal , whose marriage she has come to attend in Chandigarh ,soon sheetal picked the call and spoke " Ishita where are you darling ,hadn't reached yet , veerji gayen hai tujhe lene " .
I- I just reached got down from my bus , where is your veerji (brother ) send me his pic .
S- you reached na ,just wait there veerji has your pic with him.
I- ok ,I m waiting here only .
Ishita waited for few minutes when a person come to reach and spoke " ishita ".
I- sheetal's brother Tejveer veerji .
T- humm ,come she is eagerly waiting for you .
Soon she settled in the jeep and they drive towards the house ,after about half an hour they reached the house , actually it was not house but a huge haveli which was being decorated beautifully with flowers and lighting . Tejveer picked ishita's bag and went inside ,ishita too followed him . Tejveer went inside while ishita was walking slowly ,looking here and there ,scanning the place ,admiring the decoration . Thats when her sandal got stuck in something and she was about to fall ,she closed her eyes tightly as she knows very well that she must be hitting the ground in sometimes . She waited for about two minutes but when she realized she never fell ,she opened her eyes slowly and noticed she was in arms of a very handsome man who was lost in her beautiful face . But instead of getting straight she too looked into his eyes and their eyes got locked .
They stood their for sometimes and their eyelock broke when ishita heard sheetal calling her name . There trance broke ,both parted and stood straight . Till that time Sheetal has reached to them , she held ishita and spoke " veerji has already come and you are still standing ".
I- actually I was seeing the decorations , they are so beautiful .
S- seems you already met with Raman bhai.
I- haan kaun.
S- okay I will introduce you people.
Saying so she started introducing them " Raman bhai ,she is ishita my best friend and ishita this is Raman bhai my veerji's best friend . He also lives in Delhi and had come here especially for my marriage. chal ho gaya introduction now come inside ,I have to talk to you so much moreover I have to show you my cloths ,jewelries everything ".
Saying so she dragged ishita inside while Raman aas still looking at Ishita , she too was turning time and again and was looking at him only.Sheetal teased ishita taking Raman's name while ishita was blushing hard and was asking about him curiously. After talking much Sheetal started showing her collection of outfits and jewelries to ishita which she was seeing amusingly and was praising them . After showing her things sheetal asked " ishita what you are going to wear in my marriage ."
I- I had brought a dark pink lahenga and some suits ,have a look at them and tell me which I wear .
S- ok show me .
Ishir started showing her outfits and got shock of her life as she hasn't brought her lahenga . She started panicking when sheetal thought something and spoke smiling " yaar Ishita why are you panicking ,I have a great idea ".
I(sadly )- what ,?
S- I m telling Raman bhai to take you for shopping ,you can go, pick cloths for you and also can spend some nice time with you .
I- oops ,that's nice idea . can this happen .
S- why not ,let me arrange .
Saying so she went out to check Raman while ishita started getting ready . Soon sheetal returned and winked at ishita while she walked to her nervously and asked " kya hua".
S- wahi Jo hum chahte the .
I- he will go with me .
S- of course ,ja simran ja ,Jee le apni zindagi .
She said mimicking the dialogue of ddlj and both laughed together ,after sometimes ishra were on the way to shopping mall . For sometimes both were silent then Raman asked " what you wanna buy ".
I- actually I forgot to by my cloths which I have to wear in marriage .
Raman laughed and spoke " waah that's great ,you came here to attend the marriage and forget your outfit ".
Ishita made a puppy face and spoke " you too are making fun of me ,that sheetal was also laughing ".
R- aapne kaam hi aisa kiya hai.
I- if you don't wanna come ,you leave me here ,I myself will go.
R- achcha baba ,now I m not laughing .
Ramsn said and they stopped at the mall . Both went to the ladies corner and started choosing dress for her ,though they were unfamiliar to each other but still Ishita was asking for his choice and they were not able to choose anything ,as he don't like the attire she was choosing and she was not liking which he likes . After much time they both asked for same lahenga ,it was a beige color lehega with mehroon velvet choli and heavy embroidery dupptta ,both liked it a lot and told it to pack it . The sales girl was going to pack it when ishita asked its price ,the sales girl told its of 30000/- . Ishita's face fell listening to this ,she told the girl to show something while Raman asked " Now what ,it was nice na ,then why you want to see more ".
I- aap ruko na , you please show some more .
The sales girl sent to bring some more while ishita spoke " arey that's out of my budget ,I cannot spend so much in one cloth ".
Thats when the sales girl came and starred showing more outfits but ishra eyes were stuck in that only ,they were not liking any other dress ,finally after sometimes Raman pulled Ishita in corner and asked " what is your budget ".
I- what do you want to say ?
R- I wanna say ,you take that ,I will pay the rest of the amount .
I- why you will give money for me , moreover its not I don't have ,I have that money but I don't want to spend that much in one dress .
R- arey yaar are you mad ,yaar tum ladkiyon ke saath aana pagalpan hai .
They were talking when the shopkeeper himself came and asked " what's the problem sir ,aren't you liking anything ".
R- nothing like that ,we had already chosen something but madam is saying its costly more than required .
S- arey perjaai ji what are you saying . its so nice at least she the fabric of this .
He was go on describing while ishra looked at each other,ishita asked " what's parjaiji ".
R- its bhabhi ji in Hindi ,but why he is calling that ..
Both saw each other then the shopkeeper who was still explaining the qualities of the lahenga . Ishita made a shocked face and spoke " leave it I don't wanna take anything ".
R-(stopping ishita )- are you mad ,itne outfit dekhne ke baad you are saying this .
I- what to do ,dekho na kitne costly hai wo ,that too what he is thinking .
R- (looking into her eyes )- then what else he will think ,we both are talking in whisper like a couple only.
Ishita blushed and spoke " kuch bhi ".
She was again going to ask for some more when Raman held her hand and spoke " please pack this only ,but give some discount either mam will not take it ".
The shopkeeper got it packed while ishita was still murmuring and denying while Raman gave his card for payment, ishita held his hand and fished her purse for her card when Raman give him the his card . Soon the payment was done and ishra came out of the shop ,ishita made faces and spoke " this is not right Raman ".
R- achcha you don't return the money to me .
I- that I will surely return but it was not needed .
R- its done na ,now come .
I- but I was talking na ,we should have seen some more shops .
R(bit loudly )- ishita enough .
She became silent and followed him , they settled in car and drove back . They don't talk much on the way only ishita told him to give his Account number so that she can return his money ,he denied and told that its gift from him to her . She asked did he gift everybody these type of gift for which he said ,she looks enough intelligent to understand.Soon they reached, sheetal's house,she was waiting for her to know the happenings .Ishita shared everything and both friends got lost in their gossips .
The day passed in jiffy between the rituals ,ishita was fully enjoying hide and sick ,and Raman signals between the Punjabi rituals . They just hadn't mouth their but were totally accepted each other .
It was marriage day sheetal was getting ready in bridal attire while ishita too got ready in the lehenga ,Raman has bought for her ,she hot ready beautifully and was searching for him to flaunt herself but he was nowhere . She thought he must be busy with the preparations but he was not seen anywhere . All the family members were dancing and enjoying but Raman was not visible . Ishita got sad not finding him when all get ready to go to gurudwara for marriage . She thought he will come there but to her disappointed he was not there in Gurudwara too . ishita finally asked sheetal about him , she saw her so sad and asked to her brother about Raman .Tejveer told that Raman's mother is unwell that's why he has to go back immediately . Ishita got sad listening to this . Her eyes got teary knowing he has gone ,she went out from there and cried thinking its was such a small meeting that they couldn't even exchanged their contact number or address . She closed her eyes while tears rolled down from them.
Do pal ruka khwabo ka karva Aur phir chal diye tum kaha ham kaha Do pal ki thi ye dilo ki dasta Aur phir chal diye tum kaha ham kaha 2
She recalled all their sweet moments which they spend together ,his signals ,flying kisses and winks .
Tum the ke thi koyi ujli kiran
Tum the ya koyi kali muskayi thi
Tum the ya tha sapno ka tha sawan [/GREEN]
Tum the ke khushiyo ki ghata chhayi thiTum the ke tha koyi phul khila
Tum the ya mila tha mujhe naya jaha .
She cried for long then returned back to hall ,only to see that the marriage was over and the bridegroom where taking blessing of the elders . Soon vidaai was done and sheetal went to her in-laws place and ishita returned back to Delhi . Though it was not so hard to contact Raman but she was angry on him as he had went without informing her and has not tried to call her . She tried to avoid him for some day but cannot and finally decided to check the directory of Delhi to contact him . She remembered that he is MD of bhalla group of companies and checked the same from the directory . She got the office number ,called on same after much thinking and the receptionist of Bhalla companies picked the call . Ishita was nervous and confused till now but when the receptionist picked the call ,she got relaxed and told the receptionist to inform that ishita has called . Ishita left her number with the receptionist and thought if Raman will call then she will talk to him and if he won't she will try to forget him, thinking he was a flirt .
Two days passed but Raman didn't called her back ,one day he was sitting in his cabin and was talking to Tejveer . Raman has to return to his home back that day as his mother has got heart attack ,though it was not so hard but he got so worried for her . Till one week she was in hospital and Raman was busy with her only in these days . Two days back he came to office and was flooded with lots of meeting and pending files . He was so busy that he couldn't even make time to have his lunch ,today he was bit free .He sat in his chair and was searching something when a pic of ishita opened in which he had put haldi on her and she was blushing ,looking too beautiful in yellow and red combination. He smiled seeing it and recalled her ,a sweet smile crept in his face on her thought.
Tum the aa khushbu hawao me thi
Tum the ya rang sari dishao me the Tum the ya roshni raho me thi
Tum the ya geet gunje fizao me the Tum the mile ya mili thi manzile
Tum the ke tha jadu bhara koyi sama
Do pal ruka khwabo ka karva Aur phir chal diye tum kaha ham kaha Do pal ki thi ye dilo ki dasta Aur phir chal diye tum kaha ham kaha 3
He got restless realizing that he had missed taking her number and now he don't have any reference to call her . Thinking so he immediately called Tejveer to get sheetal's number from her he can easily get ishita's number . He finally got ishita's number after talking and getting teased by both sheetal and Tejveer . He smiled fully seeing her number and called ,ishita was upset and cursing him as she was trying to forget him but was not able to . Her phone rang but she didn't bothered to pick it while on the other hand Raman was too eager to talk to her . Finally after two three missed calls she picked the call and shouted" don't you understand that I m not interested in picking your call ".
R- oops ishita so much anger ,what happened .
She got silent listening to his voice ,it didn't took her time to recognize his voice , bit she don't want to keep hopes ,so she asked meekly " who's it ".
R- didn't you recognized me .
I- no .
R- its Raman .
She felt as her breath stopped listening to his name ,she closed her eyes feeling haply and contended knowing he had called her . When he asked " ishita are you there ".
I(angrily)- why did you called me ?
Raman didn't liked her way of talking he spoke " ishita how are you talking to me , if you don't want to talk ,I will not call you again . bye"
Saying so he was about to hung the call when she spoke " ye achcha hai ,at first you returned back without informing me,them didn't tried to call me and when I left my number for you ,you are calling me after two days and yourself feeling bad also ".
R- ishita are you alright ,when did you call me ,I asked your number from sheetal and then has called you . I agree i came without informing but my mother was unwell but you could have called . it was not difficult to search me ,you can search my number from directory .at first you didn't tried to contact me and also shouting on me ".
Ishita mellowed down listening to this and spoke " haan Tejveer veerji has told ,how is aunty ,is she ok now."
R- humm ,she returned home only two days back .and what you were saying ,you called me .
I- yeah I called you and leave my number with your receptionist abd you are making stories that you got number from sheetal.
R- no madam I didn't got your number so easily ,I got it after talking to Tejveer and sheetal .
I- ok call your receptionist and ask .
R- humm .
Raman immediately called the receptionist and asked about ishita ,she immediately recalled and apologized saying she is extremely sorry as she totally forget about it . Raman scolded her and then apologized to ishita , they then talked and decided to meet .
After sometimes they were sitting in a restaurant which Raman has booked for them . They so wanted to talk more and more but as if words were not coming out from their mouth due to happiness ,they were just smiling ,looking at each other as they never needed much words to convey their feelings but ultimately feelings has to be spoken ,so Raman held ishitas hands and asked " ishita will you marry me ".
Her eyes got moist listening to this and she didn't wasted time to accept his proposal .Both hugged each other tightly and confessed their love for each other .
Aaj se teri saari galiyaan meri ho gayi
Aaj se mera ghar tera ho gaya X2
Aaj se meri saari khushiyan teri ho gayi
Aaj se tera gham mera ho gaya
O tere kaandhe ka jo til hai.
O tere seene mein jo dil hai
O teri bijli ka jo bill hai
Aaj se mera ho gaya
O mere khaabo ka ambar
O meri khushiyon ka samandar
O mere pin code ka number
Aaj se tera ho gaya
Tere maathe ke kumkum ko
Main tilak laga ke ghoomuga
Teri baali ki chhun chhun ko
Main dil se laga ke jhoomunga
Meri choti si bhulon
Ko tu nadiya mein baha dena
Tere joode ke phoolon ko
Main apni shirt mein pehnunga
Bas mere liye tu maalpuve
Kabhi kabhi bana dena
Aaj se meri saari ratiyan teri ho gayi
Aaj se tera din mera ho gaya
