It has been a while since I have discussed the show and its characters, their actions or the repercussions of the same but tonight I cannot hold myself back somehow.

I have been reading stuff that Ishita has gone out of line in undermining her marriage with Raman that the way she has been behaving she is inflicting pain upon those who mean her well, who love her enough. There have been people who have said not everything can be swept under the rug by saying that a mother is doing this, not a wife, and all that jazz.

I agree with a few things, I do not with a few but I would like to present a POV here perhaps ignored entirely.

For those who think that Ishita needs redemption after the words she hurled tonight at Raman - I would strongly disagree with.

I strongly believe that a person is a product of their past as much as their present. Our present defines what we wish for in the future, but our past shapes us into the people we are. A person and their circumstances can as well as do change but neither of these can happen in the blink of an eye, well except for the circumstances part. You may become a pauper by a financial crisis so huge you can't avert it try as you may if its destined and likewise you might just win a lottery out of the blue if you are destined to do so, but can it change you as a person in a matter of moments just as easily? No.

Why am I saying all of this?

Simple Ishita is reacting the way she is based on her past & her present.

She mentioned today without Ruhi there is no them to Raman. Is it really a wrong thing to say? She did become his wife because Ruhi wanted Ishita as a mother. Raman did not want a wife but he did want a mother for Ruhi when he married her. Likewise, Ishita was not interested in marrying Raman for the man he is but because he was the man who coincidentally fathered the child she fell madly in love with.

To understand Ishita' words today Ishita' history has to be taken into account.

Was this really a mother saying things today, was it a wife, or was it Ishita a woman, a woman scared out of her wits that came to the fore here today?

Remember it wasn't just Raman but everyone else who faced her wrath too, her sisters included. One with whom things aren't even rocky at the moment. She is mad at everyone but mostly the situation.

Did she say she would leave Raman? Divorce him, no. She said there is no them without Ruhi.

In her past she loved a man for 12 long years of her life, let us assume Ishita is a 30-year-old woman now. 12 of those 30 years she was in a committed, loving relationship with someone she thought she would spend the rest of her life with.

Did it happen? No.

Why? Because she cannot procreate, cannot have a child of her own due to a biological impairment beyond her control.

Did she expect that 12 years would account for nothing instantly when faced with a hurdle that she never intended to be faced with? No. The answer would always remain the same.

Today that woman is a wife, a daughter-in-law, a sister-in-law but most importantly she is a mother, and it is by the virtue of being this child' mother did she attain the aforementioned relationships in her life in the first place that she had lost all hopes off.

From where I see, Ishita is scared out of her mind at the prospect of losing Ruhi because with her gone she fears she is no one. She is the same Ishita that no one wanted before this child.

Ruhi is her miracle, the one who made it possible for her to have a family where a man grudgingly wed her.

Yes today that man is in love with her madly, but the very man not a few hours back said he needed his son to move forward in their marriage. He had to have Adi to take their relationship to the next level. Perhaps that man wanted to feel complete before he could surrender himself to her mind, body, heart and soul and claim her similarly.

She was fine with that, happy, euphoric even before her world came crashing down in a matter of hours.

What changed that? The prospect of losing Ruhi or by extension everything associated with Ruhi.

A woman who was discarded aside after 12 years before she could even process what hit her when she learned of her condition, by a man who had vowed to spend the rest of his life with her, can it not be possible that she fears that history may repeat itself with her?

When Ruhi' custody was originally up for the battle in the court, as a newly wedded wife of her husband of not even a day, she was coolly told by the man he would have the divorce papers ready for their marriage to be dissolved since Ruhi doesn't want her too now.

Is it so hard to imagine she thinks one day those words could turn real?

Yes, she knows Raman loves her, feels it in her bones, but she has also known love is not enough to keep two people together, hold them forever since she has underwent the bitter experience once.

Can it not be that she fears that if 12 years weren't enough for Subu to stay by her, how long before Raman breaks and for the sake of his children perhaps decide to get back together with the woman he detests, solely because she has his children. A daughter whose legal custody is in her possession apart from the fact she biologically gave birth to her and a son who loves that woman to bits.

She knows Raman the man, the husband can be relied upon, but can the father put up with her if he is deprived of his children? Would he not shun her, rebuke her or hate her if, if he has to spend his life with a woman who cannot bear his children.

A family that has a matriarch who wants an heir badly enough, and has one already would they want her even if she is unable to provide them with another heir if at all?

Would they submit, yield to the evil woman one day because she has the children who the man loves and adores to bits, the family cannot do without.

To simply put it, what started the dominoes falling for this situation to arise -

Toshiji' incessant ranting about the family needing an heir and wishing Adi would be back with them because Romi has now become ineffectual on that account. Yes, he has fathered a child with Sarika but she is in no mood to let bygones be bygones, and even if she does relent in the future, which I think she would, there is no guarantee that the newest addition to the Bhalla clan will be a Ghar Ka Chirag only and not a Ghar Ki Lakshmi.

In the face of all these things, their one reliable hope is Aditya, a child that Raman already has had with Shagun from his disastrous marriage. A child who loves his mother above all and who wants his mother by his side forever, a son Ishita has no hopes of winning over because she has faced such resistance from his end. She knows he may have found it in his heart to have made peace with her as his father' new wife but he is not willing to give her the mantle of his mother, even a stepmother.

A child whose influence can crumble the foundations of her marriage, something she has already seen. Should things become ugly in Ruhi' absence, she basically may find herself watching her life go up in flames as she nearly did on Lohri, when the family meekly gave into the demands of the child and instead of making him understand the rights from the wrongs stood mere spectators.

With his mother as the center of his universe, should that child one day again a demand as to have his mother back with him, so that his family consisting of his parents, himself and his younger sister can be together under one roof.

Would the family want to hold onto her in the face of such a demand forever -she, a woman who they did not even want in the first place? A woman they know has been good to them but cannot help them promote the family tree?

Would they think twice and even if they do, would they listen to their hearts, their conscience when it matters, or would she be chucked out before she can even understand what hit her?

Was what we witnessed today really the outburst of a woman, the mistake, as some call it, of a wife or the full-blown fear of a woman abandoned before, discarded earlier that took place?

Was it just Ishimaa, the mother in the driving seat today when she chose to rage and react the way she did or was it Ishita, the woman there as well?

The woman who fears that the life she nearly had given up the hopes of, the life she finally attained a chance to live out courtesy of her miracle, her little Ruhi, may be falling apart once again while all she can do is be a mere spectator as it happens, like she did last time.

In the face of all these things, their one reliable hope is Aditya, a child that Raman already has had with Shagun from his disastrous marriage. A child who loves his mother above all and who wants his mother by his side forever, a son Ishita has no hopes of winning over because she has faced such resistance from his end. She knows he may have found it in his heart to have made peace with her as his father' new wife but he is not willing to give her the mantle of his mother, even a stepmother.

A child whose influence can crumble the foundations of her marriage, something she has already seen. Should things become ugly in Ruhi' absence, she basically may find herself watching her life go up in flames as she nearly did on Lohri, when the family meekly gave into the demands of the child and instead of making him understand the rights from the wrongs stood mere spectators.

With his mother as the center of his universe, should that child one day again a demand as to have his mother back with him, so that his family consisting of his parents, himself and his younger sister can be together under one roof.

Would the family want to hold onto her in the face of such a demand forever -she, a woman who they did not even want in the first place? A woman they know has been good to them but cannot help them promote the family tree?

Would they think twice and even if they do, would they listen to their hearts, their conscience when it matters, or would she be chucked out before she can even understand what hit her?

Was what we witnessed today really the outburst of a woman, the mistake, as some call it, of a wife or the full-blown fear of a woman abandoned before, discarded earlier that took place?

Was it just Ishimaa, the mother in the driving seat today when she chose to rage and react the way she did or was it Ishita, the woman there as well?

The woman who fears that the life she nearly had given up the hopes of, the life she finally attained a chance to live out courtesy of her miracle, her little Ruhi, may be falling apart once again while all she can do is be a mere spectator as it happens, like she did last time.
