Part 19

All settled at dinning table and started having their breakfast ,toshiji noticed that ishita was eating rapidly ,she narrowed her eyebrows and spoke " ishita eat properly, why are you eating in rush ".

I- ishita looked at the clock then toshiji and spoke " mummyji I m running out of time ,its already 8.30 am and I have to reach office till 9.30 .

T- I know that but your office is just about 40 minutes away from here na .

I- yeah , its 40 minute away but only by own means,it takes more than a hour by public transport .

T- public transport ? Why do you think you are going with a public transport .you can go with Raman .

Ishita tried to dig into her food ignoring toshiji's question while Raman stuffed the last peice of paratha into his mouth and said " ma I m done".

Toshiji nodded and asked ishita again " tell me ishita why can't you go with him ".

I- umm mummyji my boss told that he can't ride me to office daily as it will be wrong on the part his other employees . They are conclude wrong things .

Toshiji laughed again ,Raman stopped in mid listening to his mother and asked " what happened ma ,why are you laughing ".

Toshiji stopped laughing and spoke " you both are already married,you know ever gossip, every assumption and every conclusion ends when two people get married and you people are thinking about people's conclusion .

R- umm ma ,I had many employees what if they will ask me a favour.

T- then you can just say ,I m giving a ride to my wife ,you people can ask your husbands same .

Saying so toshiji started giggling again, making ishra laughing too.Raman looked at his mother and said " non can argue and can win over you . "

He then looked at ishita and spoke " now go get ready soon ,you tattler. Now I have to be conscious with you .

Ishita's eyes got wide while mouth got opened in perfect O shape listening to him . She immediately got up from the table and said " I m not chugalkhor ,its just mummyji asked so I had to tell her either I don't tell anything about office to her. I swear ".

Toshiji looked at ishra and smiled fully ,she can sense that Raman was teasing ishita but she was being too serious .

R- ok I know you well, now grab your things we are getting late .

I- humm .

Ishita took her bag and followed him ,soon both were on the way to their office . Ishita apologized to him again and said " I never wanted to tell that to mummyji but she asked ".

R- it's ok i was just joking. Ok listen as we have to go for shopping ,complete your work quickly before six .

I- ok sir .

Soon they were in front of their office . They went inside together ,many people looked at then but ishra didn't care anymore ,as they were now together, though not fully but Raman had decided to give her a chance and is welcoming her fully in his life . Today Raman had some very important meeting and to his good luck all the meetings well commendably good and there were bright chances that his company is going to get all of them .In evening, ishita completed all her work till 5.30 PM and wrapped up everything till 5.45 PM, now she was waiting for Raman to end his work and come out . But it was 6.15 and he has not yet come ,she though to check him once . Thinking so she walked towards his cabin ,she knocked the door and he ordered her to come in . She entered the room and found him leaning on his leather chair ,closing his eyes . She walked to him and asked " are you ok ".

He opened his eyes and spoke " arey ishita tum ,I thought it's the peon ".

I- you didn't answered me ,are you ok .

R- humm just a little headache , had ordered a strong ginger tea ,will have it and we will leave .

I- should I give you a massage .

R- no it's ok, I will be fine .

I- ok then let's skip the shopping part and we should go home .

R- no actually , ma has gone to one of her old friend's home for jagrata and will be staying there at night .

I- so .we can still go home .

R- yeah but she had reminded me to take you for shopping as they are coming tomorrow itself .

I- ohh . But you are not feeling well na .

They were still talking when they heard knock at the door ,it was peon with his tea . He kept Raman's tea and left , Raman started sipping his tea while ishita just sat there looking at him , observing his features. That's when his phone rang and he started talking over phone and ishita got much more time to ogle at him ,she noticed he had pefect sharp features , his eyes were darkest brown , he has a sharp nose and perfect pink lips .And those charming dimples were adding to his handsomeness, he completed his call and again leaned on the chair . Ishita noticed him and asked " is it still hurting ".

R- yeah ,it would had been ok but this phone call .

I- then let me give you a massage .

Saying so she got up from her place and walked to him ,she stood behind his chair and started giving him massage,he moaned getting relief,while ishita was feeling something inside her, her heart was beating fast , being so close to him . She wanted to be more close to him but knows very well that her desires can't be fulfilled now . She was lost in her world when her phone buzzed breaking her trance. It was toshiji's call ,she has called to inform about her whereabouts and also to check on them . Ishita was about to inform her about Raman's headache but he stopped her in mid and spoke " now I m feeling much good ,chalo let's get going ."

They talked some more then ishita hung the call ,both settled in their car and drove towards the shopping mall . Raman was not a fan of shopping and also he was having headache so he told ishita to make it fast . She nodded and they entered the shop , it didn't take much time for them to pick cloths for her as they were not shopping for any function or anything but for just wearing at home . They were having dinner at the restaurant when they felt that cold wind is blowing out and when they came out of the restaurant they noticed that the weather has totally changed and it can start pouring anytime. They moment they reached their house it started raining heavily, Raman called his mother to know about her ,she assured that she is fine .

After changing ishita went to kitchen to make coffee for them while Raman was in room , he was going to do some work when it thundered aloud and ishita screamed in fear . He went to check her ,she was making a scared face ,he asked " ishita what happened ".

I- didn't you heard that loud thundering.

R- I heard that but let it be .

I- I m so scared of thundering ,I hate it and I also hate when the ...

She was yet to complete her words when suddenly there was all darkness in the house . She made a dirty face and spoke " that's what I was telling ,I hate when there is a power cut in this weather. Raman made a confused face and spoke " what happened to inverter ,let me check ". He checked the inverter and found that the batterry of inverter has drained and now they had to spend all the night in dark . Ishita make a confused face and asked " how come the battery drained ".

R- may be power is not there from much time or may he any other problem , but that can be fixed in morning itself .

Saying so he switched the flash of this mobile, then they went to kitchen,Raman searched for candle and finally find one . Ishita poured their coffee and both went to their room . Raman lighted the candle and they started sipping their coffee , he can see ishita was restless ,he even asked about it she answered that she hate this all .He smiled listening to her a d spoke " me too don't like this very much but we can't stop it either.So what's the point in panicking for this . "

I- I m not sleepy .

R- main bhi nahi .

I- kya Karein.

R- we can talk .

I- about .

R- about anything and everything, I don't know much about you ,and I bet you also don't have much information about me .

I- actually you are right . Ok tell me about you .

R- ok .

Saying so Raman told her about his schooling , college and everything . Then she too told about her life and career, they they talked about friends ,relatives many more things . Raman was telling her ,his college stories when she asked " did you have any girlfriends ever ".

Raman got silent for sometimes then said " yeah ,I had a girlfriend in my college but we broke because she got married ,then I had a new girlfriend when I was doing my MBA but she was a cheater , so after that I concentrated on my work . "

I- after that you never had any girlfriend.

R- naah.

I- in your workplace ,in Mumbai and Delhi anywhere .

R- no I wasn't interested.

I- (sadly)- and when you got married ,I too cheated on you .I m so sorry .

R- ishita that is over now , we should try to forget it now.

I- I m so guilty about it that I can say sorry to you for all my life.

R- that's not needed I m good . Not only me ,you too had went through much thing , staying alone ,hate , anger , taunts ,molestation lusty eyes and much more because of your stupid misunderstanding.

I- (caressing her both arms with eachother)- yeah , pata nahi kera kya hota, if you hadn't saved me that day . I m so so thankful to you Raman for saving my dignity .

R- there's no need to thank me for it .

Ishira became silent for sometimes ,Raman looked at her and asked " you ok ?"

I- humm ,just get shivers whenever I think what if you wouldn't be there . I would had surely died till now .

R- don't think such stupid things ,I m there for you .

Ishira thought for sometimes then spoke "Raman can I ask something to you ."

R- what ?

I- a chance .

R- (comfused)- what?

I- if you are trying to forget it ,can you give me a chance in your life ,we will start afresh.

R- ishita that i have given you beforehand , I had allowed to be as my wife for pummy aunty and family , you are in my room ,I had taken you for shopping, we are talking like friends , don't you call this a chance .

I- you mean to say that we are husband wife again .

R- I think so .

He spoke narrowing his brows while she smiled fully.They talked like this for sometimes when Raman noticed that their candle is melting and spoke " ishita we should get to our respective places ,before this candles ends ."

Ishita nodded ,then spoke " can I sleep on bed".

R- ok ,you sleep there I will be sleeping in couch .

I- no .

R- what?

I- I mean ,can I sleep on bed with you .

Raman got silent listening to this while ishita said meekly " the weather is not good and it's totally dark ,I m ... I m scared. Can ..."

R- ok .

She grinned widely and went to bed, he too ruffled his hair smiling and made his way towards the other side of bed .
