Chapter 36: part 2.
I told you before itself, way before I had to take a break,that this story is over for me. I am hugely convinced that Ishita cannot live happily without Raman. And I even concluded that Raman won her love nothing of his own merit, and I was just waiting to see how things gonna take a turn.
I just don't know what to comment....Raman suddenly starts flirting with her, and actually determines to win her, for that, he has a valid reason, which you quoted, "it was easy to cry for his shona and do nothing to wipe those tears". Even I am surprised like Ishita that a man who was full of guilt, can suddenly flip and take things into his hands and start working towards a better future?
We often sing a song at our home, "Arise and shine", a truly inspirational one, which asks you to renew your spirit within yourself, and move ahead with new hope everyday and reach the destiny, no matter how bad you have messed up till now. Raman did what he did. That's all what he had to do.
And Ishita's side is what still stabs me...I told you the story is over, but still this woman and the turmoil she goes through haunts me forever. Now, Raman started flirting with her, should she jump in joy, or slap him and leave the place. What's worse is she wants to do both, she wanna hug him tight and she wanna push him away hard. She has no shoulder to cry on even. Her daughter would never understand her pain, and she has no one in this world to share her pain. She could do nothing.
And at one point, where Raman comes and holds her, when she was about to fall, she instantly recognises his touch and she is fixed to the point for a while.
Now, that filled my eyes with tears😢. His touch can affect her to that extent. Now what can be done to this woman? Only way is to let her go and unite with him. She is emotionally fragile and only he can soothe her. If she has given him the way to her heart and wound it, and now he alone can go there and nurse those wounds.
Even if I never said that to you, I always rooted for Ishita moving on alone with Sia. But, you put me in Ishita's shoes, and made me see Raman through her eyes. He bloody still has no merit of his own to claim Ishita, only this poor woman's heart still beats for him. And now it's scary for me to imagine Ishita's life without Raman.
He needs her, and his happiness lied with her and Sia, and Iqbal convinced him that they can be happy only if they 3 live together. That's all from his perception. Little did he know the hell, she is going through. I wished he knew the love she hold for him, then start his ways to woo her, rather than still thinking that she hates his sight.
Yeah, he had only seen her venting her pain for the havoc he caused in her life, and on top of that, he too is guilty and ashamed of the same, so he never got to see the bigger picture. Her heart beats for him. Can he ever understand this?? He never understood when they were in college, else he would have never left her. It would have stabbed him to leave her. Even now, he didn't understand.
For now, it appears to me as if his sudden realisation of taking into his hands and setting up things straight is all for himself and Sia, and he knew he can keep Ishita happy, so he thinks this is the right path. This is indeed the right path, but the reasons are bigger than he imagine. He has no idea what he is imparting to Ishita. And when he comes to know, one side, his heart would with beam with joy and the other side, it would pain him 1000 times more than what his deeds towards Ishita pained him till date!
Wonderful update. Thank you. And sorry for the late reply. You know the reasons. Next chapter tomorrow😄
