"What do you do when the one person you want comfort from the most is the one who caused your pain? How can I want so desperately for him to wrap me up in his arms but also want so much for him to leave me alone."
Amanda Grace
Her fury when she was in Shagun's house, her outrage at him in their room and her torment when he left her all alone after their bitter argument said it all. The wife who was lost somewhere amidst all the chaos surrounding her came to the fore. When she was already in a state of unrest due to her daughter's pain, to her dismay, saw her husband with his ex having fun or so she thought. The wife in her couldn't hold out any longer. The gates of anger coupled with envy burst open in her. The event evoked memories that she would rather had lain dormant. She left in a fit of pique after nursing her daughter and ensuring that she was fine.
He was apprised of his daughter's absence from school by her teachers. He was indignant at his ex for jeopardising his daughter's future. He reluctantly came to his ex's house to rebuke her for her negligence and also hoping to catch a glimpse of his princess. He was appalled at her apathy. He tried to knock some sense into her but she as usual averted the conversation and somehow convinced him into watching the ad film with her. He was thoroughly riled up by her antics but the mention of his daughter melted him down a bit and so he ended up sitting next to her to savour some precious moments of his princess so that he could share them with his wife when he gets home. From the day their princess was taken away, there was no sign of life in her and he couldn't bear the thought that he was responsible. He could do anything just to see that little smile dancing on her lips and what better way than to talk about one thing that he is sure would bring that lost smile than their daughter.
When he saw the screen, his anger knew no bounds. He was about to give her an earful to his ex who was pretending to be innocent when his wife walked in, worry written all over her face. The moment he saw her face, he knew that he had once again caused her immeasurable pain and colour drained out of his face. He tried to explain to her immediately to avoid another misunderstanding but her change of topic stalled his words in his mouth. She asked for first-aid kit and his ex unable to hide her face anywhere ran inside to get it. He was anxious if she was hurt but she was in no mood to listen to him. Then came the driver carrying his crying daughter and understood why Ishita was so worried. His ex came with the first-aid box and he saw Ishita grabbing it from her hands irritating his ex. He tried to help her in dressing their daughter but she refused. She even reprimanded Ru for not listening to her. She carefully nursed their daughter, advised his ex to take care of her. He made an attempt to talk to her then and there but she left.
"You can run from the truth. You can run and hide from the truth.You can deny and avoid the truth. But you cannot destroy the truth. Nor can you make the lie true. You must know that love will always uncover the truth."

Ishita lay in her bed thinking about today's events hurting herself more. He then entered and continued his futile attempts to make her talk. The wife in her was no longer able to keep quiet and they ended up arguing. Even in this desperate time, she could not let her guard down and lay bare her feelings for him. Instead she chose the easy way out - Ru - her masquerade to express her displeasure his actions had caused. He was having a tough time already from the time they left his ex's house and came to her to apologize and to clarify the events that led to what she saw in that house. But when she said he was an irresponsible and careless father, he couldn't hold back. The war of words started. Both of them hurled spiteful accusations at each other uncovering some harsh truths. They both could no longer bear of the pain of hurting each other and eventually hurting oneself and hence once again took the easy way out. She slept and he slammed out of the room.
My notes: Was Ishita right in what she said about Raman hidings things from her - yes
Was Raman right in what he said about taking problems on his head so that he could shield his loved ones - yes
Then who is wrong? Both of them. Because they are not different individuals but one couple. They would be successful only if they work as a team.
As G's quote says, the argument ended without both of them hearing what isn't being said. And the hopeless romantic in me is waiting for the day this miracle happens.😆❤️
