After they finished the butter milk, Pari murmured something in Ishita's ear. Ishita too replied something in her ear.

Raman: Yeh ho kya raha hai...dono aapas mein hi baat kar rahe ho mujhe bhi toh batao

Pari: Nanu aap neeche jao na

Raman: kyun main kyun jaun

Pari: plz jao na...main abhi Ishinaani se kahani sun rahi hoon aap yahan rahoge toh disturb karoge

Raman: aur agar main finger on the lips karke baithun toh

Ok fine but pakka finger on your lips, Pari said after a long thought.

Raman: promise beta I will be quiet

Pari: Ishinaani ab aage batao na

Raman: Sorry Pari teacher but ek question please

Pari: Ammm chalo ok pucho but only question

Raman: Haa promise...story kahan tak pahunch chuki hai

Pari: offo naanu sunte toh pata chal jata na waise ab Ishinaani aapki birthday wala part bataengi

Raman: ok thank you now I am quiet

Ishita could only laugh seeing Raman behave like a kid with Pari.

Pari: Aap haso nahi...story shuru karo

Ishita: ok baba suno...tumhare nanu ka message aaya tha ki woh mera wait karenge meri building ke neeche at 10. Is baar mujhe late nhi hona tha islie I reached at the building gate at sharp 9.55

Pari: Phir

Ishita: Phir

*Flashback*

She saw him standing there with a huge bag pacing here and there.

Ishita: Hi Raman. Aaj toh I am not late infact I am 5 minutes early phir aap pehle se kaise aur yeh itna bada bag yeh kya hai...aap kahin jaa rahe ho out of town ya kuch

Raman: woh sab baad mein yaar pehle atleast wish toh kar do

Oh I am really sorry Raman. Wish you a very very happy birthday and may all your dreams come true, she said giving him the flower bouquet.

Raman: Thank you Ishita for both, your kind wish and the flowers

Ishita: I hope you like them I mean I didn't know what you would like so

Raman: I love them. Thanks waise ab you can open your question box... I know you are dying to ask

Ishita: hehehe aaj pehle se kaise

Raman: like you came 5 minutes early I came 25 minutes early

Ishita: aaiyo aap aadhe ghante se yahan ho...call kar dete toh main jaldi aa jaati na

Raman: I didn't want to cut down the time which you would have spent in getting yourself ready

She didn't know what to reply. He didn't know what kind of reply he did. He always got so lost seeing her. Today again she was dressed in a simple lemon yellow kurti and looked like any other random girl but he was so lost and madly staring at her. Getting uncomfortable by his continuous gaze, she finally asked.

Ishita: Raman yeh itna bada bag...ismein kya hai

Raman: Ishita agar main kahun ki bina kuch puche mere saath bas chalo and dekho main kya dikhana chahta hoon toh chal paogi

Complete silence it was. She didn't say anything infact didn't even look at him.

Did I ask something wrong, he thought.

Raman: woh hum na actually jaa rahe hain...

Ishita: bata kyun rahe ho kahan jaa rahe hain jab bina bataye le jana chahte ho

Chalen, she asked forwarding her hand.

What did I do to get so much trust from her, he thought.

Raman: my car is that side. Come

He opened the car door for her and made her comfortable. His chivalry always impressed her. The whole way was silent. He didn't say anything she didn't ask anything as if they were creating silence to let their hearts talk.

And then after around 35 minutes they reached somewhere.

Come Ishita, we have reached, he said opening the door for her.

Ishita: Ok

Raman: apna bag yaha hi chod do na...ander sambhalne mein mushkil hogi tumhe

She was confused but uttered a low hmm completely trusting him.

They entered a hall which was badly painted and looked shabby.

Ishita: yeh kahan Raman

Ssshhh, he said and put his hand forward asking her to see that side. A huge bunch of kids came running and shouting HAPPY BIRTHDAY RAMAN BHAIYAAA

Raman: Thank you so much Bachon

Ishita: Raman yeh sab

Raman: Ishita yeh Bombay ka sabse poor orphanage hai. I always come here on my birthdays since last 3 years. I try to come other times also whenever possible. I know birthdays mean parties, celebrations etc. but this is my way of celebration. I have never told this to anyone else because people usually either term you as a social worker sarcastically or make fun of you but with you I knew I could tell you this. I really hope this won't be boring for you.

She was numb. She could not say a single word and a lone tear was clearly visible in her eye. How could someone be so simple and yet so great, she thought.

Raman: Ishita you are hearing me right

Yes Raman could only come out of her mouth. Just then the kids reached there and started singing HAPPY BIRTHDAY song taking rounds against him.

Raman: thank you so much bacha party... tum logo ko pehle se kaise pata main aane wala hoon

Offo bhaiya aap humesha aate ho hum humesha aise aapke liye gaate hain phir bhi aap puchte ho, the kids replied together.

Raman could only laugh at their cute answers. But then suddenly he realized that each kid was staring at Ishita. He hit his head for forgetting to make her comfortable with the kids.

Raman: Ok bacho listen to me...yeh hain Ishita Didi. Meri friend hai aur aaj specially aap sab se milne aayi hai...chalo sab log unhe hello bolo

HELLO DIDI...all kids shouted together.

Ishita: Hello

One of the kid: Bhaiya aaj kya laaye aap humare liye

Raman: Bahut kuch laaye hain toh phir chalen apni jagah

Haa chalo kids shouted. They all started to proceed but Raman suddenly stopped realizing that she didn't move.

Raman: Ishita chalo na ruk kyun gayi kuch problem hai kya

Ishita: nahi kuch problem nahi hai...chaliye

All proceeded towards an open hall where Raman and Ishita sat with the kids on the floor and ate the various eatables he had gotten for them. Raman just could not stop smiling seeing her cuddling with the kids. The respect for her only increased in his heart when he saw her taking a little girl in her arms who was a bit dirty.

She didn't even mind to give a peck that girl's cheek and that made her special.

Suddenly he came out of his thoughts when one of the kids pulled his shirt and sat in his lap.

Kid: Bhaiya kuch puchun aapse

Raman: Haa haa puch na

Kid: yeh didi hai ya Bhabhi hai

Raman: arre pagal hai kya kuch bhi bolta hai...Didi hai tum sab ki

Kid: toh aaj se pehle kyun nahi laaye the

Raman: pehle mili hi nahi thi na

Kid: pakka na bhaiya

Raman: Maar khaega ab tu...chal bhaag

After spending the whole afternoon with the kids they finally took a leave from there. The kids were not ready to leave her and only left her when she promised to come back soon and meet them. After bidding the kids a loving bye they proceeded towards the car.

Ishita: Thank you so much Raman. I have never been to a beautiful place than this.

Raman: someone really enjoyed I see

Ishita: Yes Raman a lot. It was so much fun that I just can't say in words. It is your birthday and I got a gift

Raman: then what about my gift

Ishita: tell me na what you want. I can give you anything for the day you gave me today

Raman: anything?

Ishita: yes Raman

Raman: ok then Miss Iyyer. Make a note of it that you owe me anything

Both laughed in a sync and sat in the car.

Raman: so ab? Should I drop you home or you are ready to give some more time to me

Ishita: depends on how you need my time

Raman: city drive?

Ishita: interesting

Both drove through the entire city talking about everything and anything. The hours passed by but time didn't. Both of them didn't want the day to end.

Ishita: Raman it is 8. I think it is the time you drop me home.

Raman: yes you are right. I will drive towards your home

Ishita: Raman kuch puchun main aapse

Raman: haa pucho na

Ishita: why me?

He understood what she asked but maybe he didn't want to understand it.

Raman: what Ishita? I didn't get you

Ishita: why me Raman?

He thought it was better to be silent or else he won't be able to hold on. She too didn't ask again sensing that she knew the answer but was not ready to hear from him. The rest of the drive was a silent affair and they reached her building.

Bye Raman, thanks for everything and wish you a very happy birthday once again, she said getting out of the car.

Raman: Bye Ishita and thank you for the time.

She could just manage to smile before leaving. He stayed there until he saw her entering into the building lift and only left when she was not visible to his eyes anymore.

Both of them felt a pain of parting for the first time today.

She reached her room and saw Mihika waiting for her eagerly as if ready to attack her with the questions.

Mihika: oh so finally you are back. Bol na kahan gaye the kya kya kiya. Did you give him flowers did he like it, did you party somewhere or did he take you to a disc.

She was just silent.

Mihika: arre bol na kya hua

She just hugged her and started crying inconsolably.

Mihika: Ishu hua kya bol na...did he take you somewhere wrong...did he misbehave bol na baba kya hua

She just kept crying without saying anything. Mihika calmed her down giving water and asked when she found her a little calm.

Mihika: bol na Ishu kya hua. You trust me right

Ishita: Mihika I love him

And there was silence. The speaker and the listener both were shocked.

Mihika: Ishu tu kya bol rahi hai...aise kaise achanak and chal even if you love him what is the need of crying...I understand Ishu

Ishita: No Mihika you don't understand. I didn't come here to do this. Main bas 3 months ke liye aayi thi. I have to go back and now I love him. I don't know why when but I love him Miku

She again started crying saying all this.

Mihika: Ishu stop crying yaar. Itna rona kyun hai... thik se bata kya hua subah toh achi khaasi gayi thi achanak kya ho gaya

Ishita: he is very good Mihika

Mihika: and you love him for that

Ishita: yes

Mihika: toh problem kya hai yaar love is good na...and maine toh first day hi tujhe kaha tha ki hum kisi se yun hi nahi milte...if we meet someone then we are destined to connect to that person

Ishita: But Miku

Mihika: kya but Ishita. Did you tell him?

Ishita: are you mad I would never tell him

Mihika: aur itna mahan decision kyun

Ishita: because we are not compatible yaar. Kaise bataungi main unhe. He is Raman Bhalla an engineer. Maine toh abhi studies bhi complete nahi ki. He is much elder to me and on top of everything he does not like me.

Mihika: and how do you know it

Ishita: I asked him why he took me out for celebrating his birthday. He said nothing. May be all his other friends were busy so he took me out that's it.

Mihika: you are overthinking. Atleast ask him.

Ishita: no Mihika never. I know I would be rejected so it is better that I live with my illusion.

Mihika: Ishita it would only hurt you

Ishita: it is just a matter of 2 and half months. Then I will be back home, busy with studies and stuff.

Mihika: do you think it would work

Ishita: I will make it work this way as there is no other way. Anyways I need to sleep now. You please have dinner and sleep.

Mihika: you won't have?

Ishita: No I am sleepy please don't force

Mihika: ok baba sleep. I know you need some time to yourself

She lied on the bed still sobbing thinking of a relation that had ended even before starting but did it end already

*Flashback end*

Pari: haww nanu so bad of you. Aapne meri Ishinaani ko rulaya. I won't talk to you

Raman: am I allowed to speak my highness?

Pari: Ok bolo

Raman: beta I didn't make your Ishinaani cry. She thought she was very intelligent islie sab kuch khud hi samajh liya without even asking me

Pari: phir bhi rulaya toh na...unhone car mein pucha toh aapne answer kyun nahi kiya...aapko bhukhi lagi thi kya?

Ishita laughed hearing this as Pari used to be quiet whenever she was hungry.

Raman: Nahi bhukhi nahi lagi thi darr laga tha ki kahin kuch bola toh maar na pad jaaye

Ishita: aap kyun bachi ke saamne mujhe badnaam kar rahe hain...maine kab maara hai aapko

Raman: hadd hai roz maarti ho aur puch rahi ho kab maara

Pari: Offo stop it both of you...kitna ladte ho aap dono..Ishinaani ab aap chup ek dum ab nanu bataenge aage kya hua

Raman: finger on the lips karke kaise bataunga

Pari giggled and removed his finger from his lip.

Pari: Ab batao

Raman: after dropping your Ishinaani I reached my home. And i was only thinking about the mess i had created

Pari: Kaisa mess nanu

Raman: love wala mess Pari
