Part 10

Raman and Mr bhalla were sitting in the part waiting for iyers . Raman looked at his father with questioning eyes and asked " papa why are we here at this time. "

Mr bhalla - puttar, ishita and her father wants to talk to us about ruhi's custody .

R- papa I had already sorted everything and soon ruhi will he there with us .

Mr bhalla - sachchi Raman , what have you arranged puttar .

They were still talking when iyers showed up , Mr bhalla greeted them and asked the reason for this visit. Ishita informed that she has listened Raman's conversatuonwith his lawyer in her clinic. She told that he is going to transfer all his property and funds to shagun to get ruhi's custody . Mr bhalla got shocked listening to this while Raman got angry , he glared ishita and spoke " that's my money and I m giving it for my daughter, why are you panicking . "

Mr bhalla - Raman watch your mouth , how can you talk so rudely to a girl who is trying to help you .

R- I don't need anyone's help ,I had already lost one of my kid and will not loose ruhi at any cost .

Mr bhalla - puttar calm down and listen to me , it's your hard earned money and that evil woman didn't deserve that .

R- then how I m going to get my daughter back from her .

Mr bhalla - puttar ruhi wants to be with ishita , so the easiest way is to marry her .

R- no papa ,I don't want to use her, moreover her mother too is not ready for it and as a mother her concern is right .I don't have much time to think about any other option so this is the right one , I can earn money again .

Mr bhalla- may be you are right puttar but still I want you to marry ishita not because of ruhi's custody but because she is a nice girl and can bring happiness in your life .

R- but papa ..

Mr bhalla - no but Raman ,you had endured much pain in these last six years ,now I want you to start afresh and marrying ishita will he the first step towards this .

R- it's not that easy papa .

Mr bhalla - it's not that difficult too Raman . Can't you give a nice life to a girl who loves your daughter somuch and can bring her back in your life .

Raman looked at ishita , she was just sitting there , thinking something . He looked at her father, then to her and asked " are you sure about it, you might regret your decision later ".

I- Mr bhalla , may he I m not a mother but i can feel the pain of losing a baby . I had gone through this pain and don't want anyone to go bear this pain ,that to because of me . I don't have much to loose , but I can get a dayghter through this marraige which is more than enough for me .

R- but aunty ...

Mr iyer - I will take care of her . I m sure she will agree once I talk to her .

They talked for some more time ,both ishra agreed for the marraige. After talking sond more they all left for their house, after deciding everything about ishra marraige. Next morning Mr iyer talked to Mrs iyer and told everything about their conversation if last night . Atfirst she was not convinced but after some times, when Mr iyer told about Mr bhalla's talk and his intention of this marraige she got ready . Ishra had left for their work when senior bhalla's showed up at iyers and talked about marraige . They decided to do early marriage as only few days were left for the court hearing . Amma placed the condition that she wants the marraige to happen in Tamil ritual, bhalla's immediately got ready and agreed to their other conditions too .

The weddings preparation started, as they don't have much time to prepare widely ,so they were doing it briefly and quickly .Today is ishra marraige and various wedding rituals are going in both the houses . Raman was sitting in his house and doing some official work from house itself that's when he received a call from shagun's lawyer . He got confused seeing his call and spoke picking the call " Mr Mishra , why had you called me ,I told you to talk to my lawyer not me ".

Mr mishra - Mr bhalla , there is a shocking news for you .

R- what happened ,what are you talking about .

Mr mishra - Mr bhalla , miss Shagun Arora and Mr Khanna has met with a severe accident. Even your daughter also is bit injured ...

R- where are they ?

Mr mishra - city hospital.

R- I m coming asap .

Saying so he hung the call and left the house. All were too busy in marraige rituals that they didn't noticed Raman. He reached the hospital and asked about them . The receptionist gave the required information and he rushed to meet ruhi first . She was not much injured , she has some bruises and a head injury. Her treatment has been done and she was sleeping now . Raman then went to meet shagun ,she was in ICU while Ashok was in operation theater . He asked the Nurse about shagun , she told that theh are trying their level best , hope she can make it . He asked if he can meet , she denied saying shagun is still unconscious so he cannot meet now but see her in visiting hours . He nodded and went to ruhi's ward ,he was waiting for her to wake when the nurse came to him and informed that shagun has gained conscious and wanted to see her son . Raman went to meet shagun but she has again slept , he thought to take a flight to bring Adi . Thinking so he immediately instructed his agent to book a ticket to dehradun where adi was studying in a boarding school. The broker booked the earliest flight which was flying in two hours .

Before leaving for dehradun , he informed same to his father and told him to come to look after ruhi . Mr bhalla got tensed listening to this and asked Raman about the marraige. Raman told him to deny for the marraige as it can't happen now . Mr bhalla was thinking how he is going to inform it to Iyers but assured Raman that he will handle it while he can go bring Adi . Raman reached the airport asap , he was waiting for his flight . He was feeling too guilty for leaving without informing ishita , so he thought to talk and informo her . Thinking so he called ishita but non picked the call , so he left a message for her and apologised to her informing everything . Soon his flight was announced and he went to board it , he peeped in his phone for her reply before leaving but since she was still busy .

Here Mr bhalla called Mr iyer and informed him everything calling the marraige off , Mr iyer was shocked listening to this but he can't blame bhalla's too as the situation was beyond their control . Mr iyer went to his house and stopped all the rituals, Amma was too angry with bhalla's and was shouting on her husband and ishita, saying that never trusted bhallas but it was them who were going to do charity and what they got in return . The marraige is cancelled now and they are left with broken marraige and broken hearts . Mr iyer tried a lot to make her understand that it is not bhallas fault and she should think about ishita rather shouting on her . Realising so , amma went to talk to ishita but found her room locked , she tried to talk to her but ishita denied talking to anyone ,saying she wants to be alone for sometimes. Amma was still knocking the door when appa stopped her and told her to give some time to ishita to get over it .

On the other side of door, ishita sat on the floor and read his message again and again. Though she has cleared that this marraige was only for ruhi's custody but it was her marraige and after talking about it that night ,she had somewhere dreamt for a happy life which has been shattered in peices. She was still not believing her bad luck ,but can't help it also, tears started
flowing from her eyes which she didn't bothered to stop.She sat on her place for much time and finally slept on floor itself.

On the other hand Raman reached to Adi's school in the morning , he talked to the principal about shagun's accident and told that he is here to take adi along. Atfirst adi denied saying ,he don't want to come along with Raman but later got ready when he told that he will took him to shagun. They flew back to Delhi in the afternoon and reached the hospital in evening . Ruhi was all ok but was terrified with the accident while Ashok and shagun has breathed their last . Adi was shattered seeing his dead mother , Raman pulled adi into him and he cried in his father's embrace . Bhalla completed the last rites of Shagun and Ashok ,and came back home with adi and ruhi as Raman has got their custody automatically after shagun's demise.
