Aashiqana Aayat Ban Gaye
Am-All the best kanna...I am sure you will get the job.
I-I hope so Amma...I have to rush now..
Byee
And she went.
Ishita Iyer was rushing as she was going to give an interview for the post of PA for her idol and secret crush Raman Bhalla.
She was hell nervous but excited at the same time.
She reached the office and was greeted with a very strict and disciplined office with no casual talk and all heads pored in their work.
Tere dar pe aake tham gaye
Naina namaazi bann gaye
She went to the reception and asked to meet the person who was conducting the interview.
The receptionist guided her to Mihir,CEO of Raman's company and the person who would be interviewing her.
She knocked and went in
I-Hello sir
M-Miss.Ishita Iyer
Pls have a seat.
I-Thank you.
M-So to begin with...
And then began a Question and Answer session for Ishita.
She said each and everything with full confidence.
M-So Miss.Ishita you are all but hired your last few things will taken by sir
And now Ishita started sweating a bit as she was about to meet her icon.
M-Are you ready?
I-Ye...yess
They went to Raman's cabin.
It was a palatial one with posh interiors but all in black and white.
Ishita was struck by it.
When she entered,Raman's back was turned against them as he sat in his chair.
M-Raman,This is Ishita Iyer,your almost new PA
Want to have some words with her?
I-Good morning Sir.
She said in her sweet bubbly polite yet respectful voice that made Raman stuck in a trance and he turned to notice the owner of that beautiful voice.
As he turned around he was awestruck by her.
She was wearing a white shirt and a black formal skirt.
Ishita could not believe her eyes,her idol right in front of her gazing at her making her go all pink.
I-Hi sir
Raman broke out from his trance.
R-Uh...hello
Good morning...pls have a seat.
Mihir I will take it from here...thank you
Ek dooje mein yun dhal ke
Aashiqana aayat ban gaye Main aur Tum
And Mihir went
R-So Ishita...my new PA
I-Yes sir...she said with a hint of excitement.
R-No fears or nervousness
I-Just a tiny bit but it will wear out soon.
R-Ok then...you are up in an hour
I need a file ready in 15 mins.and then we will sit and discuss out points for my meeting at 11.
Is it okay?
I-Of course sir.
You won't ask me anything.
R-Nope...you are perfect.
And that's how things went and slowly they mingled along really well and used to attend meetings together.
Kaisi dil lagaai kar gaye
Rooh ki rubaai bann gaye
The office now bore a happier and cheerful look as opposed to the strict look when Ishita joined.
One day,Raman had called up and told Ishita to find a file and keep it ready.
While searching for the file,she stumbled upon some sketches.
They were hidden and kept in the last drawer.
Abstract pieces and many others.
She was marvelled by how intricately it was drawn.
She kept them back there and thought to ask him about it later.
She gave him the file and thought to talk to Mihir first.
M-Miss.Iyer pls come in
I-Sir,can I ask something personal if you don't mind
M-Ya sure
I-Why is Raman sir so reserved?
He hardly talks to anyone informally and his office also bears such a dark semblance.
I am sorry is everything okay?
M-I don't whether I should I tell you this.
I-Its ok sir...if you cannot tell me.
I was just worried.
M-I dont know much about it because he doesn't prefer to open to anyone so soon and he has a past which he never wants to venture back to.
So it's better to let things let be as they are.
I-Ohhh
And she got thinking.
I-Sorry and thank you.
And she left Mihir's cabin.
She was lost in thoughts and bumped into Raman and was about to fall when strong muscular arms encircled her waist and when she opened her eyes she directly looking into his.
They shared a deep eyelock.
Ishita was the one who broke from the eyelock sensing the surroundings they were in.
I-Sorry...I am so sorry sir.
R-Dheere...Abhi aap phisli hai...agli baar dil na phisle
(Slowly...today you slipped,next your heart might)
He steadied her,winked and left making her gape with her mouth open and wondering what happend all of a sudden.
Khaali khaali dono thhe jo
Thoda sa dono bhar gaye Main aur Tum
That day she was all lost and Raman had to literally shake her up to get her out of her thoughts.
Days flew by and Ishita was everyone's favorite at the office.
Her smile and sweet talks used to brighten up the workplace everyday.
There was a visible change in another person also and she was becoming his favourite.
Yes...Raman Bhalla who used to hardly smile and talk in the office was now slowly opening up and used to chat informally more with his staff.
One day there was a celebration held in the office for acquiring a big contract and there was cake cutting as well.
After it was over,
R-Ishita...I owe you a lot over these last few months you have made my work alot easier and the whole atmosphere in the office is terrific.
Umm...Coffee tonight at 7?
I-Umm...yeah...sureee
R-So...I will msg you the address..will meet there?
I-Ok
Though she was all calm but inwardly she was all blushing and nervous and excited, coffee with her crush...best thing to ever happen
Chalo ji aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon
Itni si baat hai mujhe tumse pyar hai
Yunhi nahi main tumpe jaan deta hoon
Itni si baat hai mujhe tumse pyar hai
Chalo ji aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon
Itni si baat hai mujhe tumse pyar hai
Mujhe tumse pyaar hai..
In the evening at 7,they both reached there at the same time 5 mins before scheduled meeting time.
She was dressed in a baby pink flowy kurti and white leggings while he wore a casual navy blue shirt with white jeans.
They both met each and exchanged greetings and sat.
R-You look very elegant...simple yet lovely.
Ishita looked at him and their eyes locked.
Her cheeks with a pink hue made her look all the more prettier.
She just lowered her gaze.
I-Thank you
As they relished their coffee with their conversations taking many routes.
They were quite comfortable with each other now.
I-Uhh...can I ask you something personal
R-Sure...go ahead
I-Umm...
Has something affected you before ...I am sorry but...your dark cabin interiors...your reserved behaviour before...and your sketches...left isolated in a corner of your drawer.
Raman looked upto her.
His eyes showing pain.
R-Oh so you know about all this and the sketches huh...
His voice very vulnerable and eyes tearing up trying his best not to let the tears flow.
I-Yaaa
R-8 years...yess...that was my age when I lost my parents in a car accident.
With them went my whole nature...my childhood...my passion for drawing.
Mr.and Mrs.Arora took care of me.Mihir...their son is my best friend and confidant and my brother.
As soon as I finished my studies,I started my own business which you now see.
But my life was never the same and will never be.
My parents' loss...
And his words trailed off...
Ishita caressed his palm and tried to support him.
Lage na yeh dhoop zaroori
Lage na yeh chaanv zaroori
R-Painting was my passion but after their death I left it.
But painting never left me and the result are the sketches you saw.
I had lost the need to live and then I started my own company to distract myself.
The sketches you saw have another story to it also.
Ishita looked on.
R-You
I-Whaatt...me?
R-Yes...you.
Before you came my life was black and white and dull.
You came and filled it with colours and brightened it.
You changed me back to my old self.
Milte hain ishq zameen par
Ab do hi naam zaroori Main aur Tum
Ishita looked and their eyes locked.
His eyes just pouring out love.
She was speechless and her eyes were brimming with tears.
R-I know I know...it must be too much to handle for you.
We will talk on it some other time.
They silently sipped on their coffee and then Ishita hurriedly got up to leave when he caught her wrist.
R-Our talk is not yet over.
Let me drop you to your house dear.
Dear...that one word was making Ishita lose her senses.
This is not right...she thought but her heart couldn't help but rewind to those moments they spend.
The whole journey back to her home,she was lost in her thoughts while he kept stealing glances from her.
Apna khuda bhi hoga
Apna hi Rab le lenge
Khud ki bana ke duniya
Ye zindagi jee lenge Main aur Tum
The next few days passed off normally but whenever Ishita used to see Raman she would be lost and she would start hyperventilating.
She tried to avoid him as much as possible.
On the other hand Raman who was already falling for her was now head over heels in love with her and he knew she also felt the same by her actions of ignoring him.
He wanted her to tell it to him but instead she was running away from her feelings.
R-This girl na...Uff
Ishita what have you made me?
I cannot wait to hear those words from you and make you mine forever.
Chalo ji aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon
Itni si baat hai mujhe tumse pyar hai
Yunhi nahi main tumpe jaan deta hoon
Itni si baat hai mujhe tumse pyar hai
Mujhe tumse pyaar hai..
The next day,in the office
The whole of the staff was wishing her.
M-Miss.Ishita...Happy Happy Birthday to you.
I-Wow...that means a lot.
Thank you sir.
M-Most welcome.
Ishita was very happy on being wished by everyone but she though ignoring him was waiting for that one wish from him which would just make her day all the more better and the best birthday she would have ever have.
On the other hand,he hit upon an idea.
Ishita was in his cabin.
R-Ishita...tonight we have to attend a very important party.
I-But sir...today...of all the days I cannot come.
R-What is there today...and you have to come.
I-But I am just your PA...what has this got to do with me coming to a business party.
R-I am not hearing anything.You are coming no matter what.
And he picked up his phone to ignore any if her excuses.
R-Oh and by the way...I will come to pick you by 6...so be ready.
Ishita was dumbstruck with the sudden authoritative tone of his.
She went home and was greeted with a parcel with a note.
Ishita,
Since you are coming with the RKB for a party.
I thought why not give you a small gift.
Hope you like it
Love,
Raman
Ek tum, ek main, teeja maangu kya khuda se
Dil doon, jaan doon, kya doon itna bata de
When she opened the parcel she saw a beautiful black sari with a silver border and a silver blouse.
She held and caressed it.
I-Does he have a split personality disorder...office and letter little khadoos and gift mein...
She blushed.
I-But what's with the sudden party and why today only.
I wish I could say no.
R-If you are done cursing me then you can dress up...I cannot wait to see you.
Ishita was shocked and looked up to see but she didn't see him anywhere.
She looked around.
I-I have lost it...imagining him...seriously
What am I doing.
Tera mera rishta hai saanson se bhi naazuk
Tum sa, hum sa, koi duja na hoga na hua re
Ishita dressed up with minimal makeup with diamond danglers and hair swept to the side.
He was there sharp at 6.
When she came...he was in a trance.
He couldn't stop looking at her and checked her out from top to bottom making her blush.
I-Shall we go?
R-Uh...yaa
I-Where is the party sir?
R-We will see...
They drove until they reached a lakeside.
Ishita's eyes only widened and then she looked at him with questioning eyes.
He just held her hand and signed with his eyes telling to wait and watch.
He went out and held out his and just like a gentleman and blindfolded her.
I-Sir...
He immediately placed his finger on her lips sending a chill down her spine.
R-No sir...only Raman
I-What kind of party is this?
R-A personal one I should say.
Now stay silent and you will see for yourself.
I-Pls tell me na...sir...uhh...Raman
R-You trust me na
I-More than myself.
R-Then come with me.
He took her to a place just by the lake where he had arranged a small setup with flowers and a cake and light music with twinkling lights making the place look like a mini paradise.
He made her stand in front of the table and opened her blindfold.
She saw the cake 1st and was overwhelmed and then was astonished to see the decorations and the setup.
She immediately hugged him and Raman though shocked at her reaction but then reciprocated the hug back.
He encircled his arms around her waist.
The slight hand touches of his on her skin made her insides churn.
She broke apart and their eyes met.
I-This is just...beautiful...amazing
Thank you
R-You can thank me later because this is just the start my dear.
She looked with questioning eyes while he signed her to cut the cake first.
As she held the knife and was about to cute the cake he hugged her from the back and held her hand and cut the cake together and whispered in a husky voice.
R-Happy Birthday My Love...
His words and his actions were making Ishita melt by the minute.
She was hardly able to stand and would have melted if he wasn't there to support her.
She cut the cake and fed him and he fed her back.
R-Time for your gift.
I-Wasnt this enough? You want to gift me more.
Pls don't do so much.
I don't deserve all this.
R-Shh...not a word.
Now come.
He brought her to a place which had something covered with a cloth.
He lifted the cover and the thing Ishita saw brought tears to her eyes.
She wasn't able to say anything.
Do dil sa ik seene mein hai jaise Main aur Tum
Ab dono hum ik jeene mein hain jaise Main aur Tum It was a beautiful portrait of Ishita.
I-Raman...this is the most beautiful and lovely gift anyone has given me.
It makes me feel so special.
I...I just love it.
She took a deep breath and continued
I-And the artist is more lovelier than the painting and the nuances in this makes me love him even more.
So sir urf Mr.Raman Kumar Bhalla...I Ishita Iyer have fallen in love with you.
R-But I don't...
Ishita looked at him but he didn't anything and instead
R-Sorry but Ishita I don't love you...
He went down on his knees and held her hand and said
R-I Live You...in this short time...I have Loved you the most I have loved anyone.
You have become my oxygen and reason to live.
You coloured my life with your bubbliness and simplicity.
Your way of living life changed me.
I started laughing and smiling all because of you.
I started enjoying Life .
You reignited me...my passion.
I cannot think of living this life without you.
I want to grow old with you...have babies with you and then tell my grandchildren that their grandmom proposed first.
So Ishita Iyer,will you marry me?
Jaan se zyada chaha tumko piya re
Harpal, hardum, humdum tumko jiya re
Ishita was overwhelmed by all this and started crying.
R-Tell fast na...my knees are hurting me.
I-Sorry...sorry...
She made him stand
I-Yess...i will.
And hugged him.
They hugged each other tightly to never let go.
He broke apart.
R-So Mrs.Would Be Bhalla...let's seal the deal.
I-I don't have a ring...
R-Who needs one ?
And before she could reply he placed his lips on hers and she responded back with equal fervour after the initial shock.
They stood under the moonlight and twinkling stars smiling in each other's embrace as they had their world in their arms.
Aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon
Itni si baat hai mujhe tumse pyar hai
Yunhi nahi main tumpe jaan deta hoon
Itni si baat hai mujhe tumse pyar hai
Chalo ji aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon
Itni si baat hai mujhe tumse pyar hai
Mujhe tumse pyaar hai..
