Hello darlings

Finally here with an update of this story

SHOT 2

He just recalled how he had entered his room all determined to tell the entire truth to her but couldn't bring himself to actually do that and how in all that confusion and his inner turmoil, he ended up using the word prostitute. All he wanted to tell her was they both should take some time to know each other before they take their relationship ahead, they are complete strangers to the other as of now, that's it. Where did that word prostitute came from, he didn't knew, he had no idea what she must be thinking about him now after the blunder he just did and lost in the same thoughts, he got changed and slipped in the bed.

Ishita stepped out of the washroom and lied in the bed thinking about him and without her realising it, soon she was in deep slumber while the other side, raman was on a guilt trip and was having a sleepless night.

He began tossing and turning in bed and finally when he couldn't sleep, he picked up her picture from the night stand as he caressed the curve of her lips and her beautiful innocent smile and automatically, a smile crept up his lips as well.

R -why you left me alone here jaan, I am missing you

He said kissing her picture before he again vowed to himself to tell the entire truth to ishita very soon and then leave the decision on her. He hugged her picture and soon drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, toshiji was happily doing her works in between instructing neelu about the preparations for the breakfast when she saw ishita coming out of her room, freshly showered, dressed in a red colour georgette saree, heavy jewellery and lots of sindoor in her partition. She was looking beautiful in that attire and toshiji couldn't help admire her as she came to her and touched her feet. Blessing her happily, toshiji made her sit as she asked her

T -why you woke up so early puttar, you should have rested for a while

I -no mummyji, I am habituated to waking up early

She said smiling while toshiji too smiled back at her before she moved to the kitchen helping neelu with the preparations of the breakfast. Ishita too followed her asking her if she can help but toshiji denied straight.

T -humare yahan bahu mehandi sookhne tak kaam nahi karti puttar

She told ishita running her hand over her hair forbidding her from doing any work for a few days before she asked her about raman. Ishita looked down not knowing what to say and was fidgeting with her pallu when both the ladies saw raman coming out of the guest room, rubbing his eyes.

He asked neelu for his coffee while toshiji stared at both of them and ishita just looked away knowing well what was playing in her mother in law's mind. Toshiji asked ishita to go to her room and rest to which she just nodded her head like a robot and left from there while toshiji glanced at her, making sure she was in her room while she confronted raman.

T -what was that raman, why were you sleeping in the guest room leaving your wife alone

R -really maa, you are asking me this, I had already told you na, I will marry only if she knows and accepts the truth and ishita doesn't even knows about her existence. You lied to me and her as well, do you realise what will happen when she knows the truth, how she will react, how much she will be hurt after that, you made me a part of your lies as well maa. I had been thinking all the while that ishita knew every single thing and now after knowing I just married an innocent girl without telling her the most important truth of my life, I am feeling guilty and ashamed of myself.

He said angrily and moved back to his room while a toshiji was left behind. She felt a hand on her shoulder and found her husband there.

T -bhalla ji

She tried to say something but he interrupted her.

O -he isn't wrong toshiji. We did a mistake by lying to both of them.

T -what do you want to say bhalla ji, I should have let my son ruin his life, I should have let him live alone all his life and punish himself for all that happened five years ago, he was innocent bhalla ji, still he is punishing himself for a crime he never did. I have already lost a lot in my life bhalla ji, I didn't want to lose my raman as well and so I lied and I am not ashamed of it, ishita is a nice girl, I am sure she would understand it.

She said wiping her tears and moved to her room leaving her confused husband behind who was in a dilemma whom to support, his wife or his son. He moved out of the house while everyone else was either resting post the tiring marriage functions and all and others (ishra and toshiji) were busy with their own selves while he recalled how everyone in the bhalla house had got affected by his one decision, how raman still blames himself for all that happened five years ago, how much he loved her, not only raman, she was loved by every single person in the house and how she had to leave all of them. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he recalled that precious moment of his life when he had first laid his eyes on her and the day he had seen her for the last time, the unfortunate day, she left them all, forever.

He cried till long and finally when he felt a little light, he moved back inside to see ishita having her breakfast with romi and simmi. She greet him and he blessed her heartily, hoping she would become the light in his son's life, bring him out of the darkness that had engulfed him five years ago. He told romi and simmi to make her comfortable and himself left for his room not willing to eat.

Raman was sitting silently in his room thinking about telling the truth to ishita and was thinking about her reaction when she comes to know it. His phone buzzed bringing a sweet smile on his lips as her name flashed on the caller id.

R -hello

He spoke in a very sweet voice, something that was reserved for this special person of his life only. But sadly, he got no response from the other end.

R -hello jaan, are you angry with me?

He asked in a shaky voice that finally melted her.

Ru -no papa, how can your rooh be angry with you, you know na rooh loves papa the most.

She spoke in her sweet voice making him close his eyes feeling pure bliss. He smiled in between his tears as he asked her how she is and how is her nature camp going. She began happily narrating him everything as he heard every single word patiently and after a long conversation and his countless instructions of taking care, they finally hung up.

He glanced at his wallpaper which was a pic of his angel hugging her favourite pink teddy and kissing that picture, whispered to her

R -you truly are the angel of my life rooh, papa loves you the most and I promise, nothing will come in between you and me, even if it is ishita.

He kissed her picture again and moved out of the guest room thinking of having a conversation with ishita about ruhi, when he saw her busy with happily chatting with his mother. He looked at her, the way she smiled in between as simmi spoke up something, the way her lips curved up, the way her eyes twinkled with joy and couldn't just help get guiltier. How will he tell her the truth? About him and ruhi, why he and his family hid such big thing from her, how will he tell her that he is not the prince charming she must have dreamed about all her life? How will he tell her that he is father to a four year old girl? How will he see tears in those almond eyes? How will he take her accusing him for spoiling her life, marrying her keeping her in the dark?

He shook his head trying to brush off all those thoughts and determined not to start his relationship with ishita based on a lie and correct the mistake his parents just did, moved to ishita. Hearing her name from his mouth, she looked at him. Their eyes met for a brief second before he broke the eyelock and telling her he wants to talk to her, moved to the room signalling her to follow. Toshiji, who was now beginning to know what was coming up; tried to stop raman but he just gave her a cold look making her go silent.

He looked at ishita who was standing there with her eyes down casted and again asked her to follow him in a little rude tone than intended. Finally he entered the room and so did ishita leaving toshiji's heart pounding wildly in her chest as the old lady feared ishita's reaction but hadn't she created this situation herself. Raman had clearly instructed her to tell ishita about ruhi then why she hid it all from her as well as raman who married ishita thinking she knows and has accepted ruhi as her daughter.
