Thank you so much for the lovely response.
Part-3 (Last part)
Next morning, everyone was having their breakfast when Ishita said that she wanted to go back to India as she was missing her father. Vandu tried to stop her but she denied. Rajeev booked her tickets. She told them that she will go to her friend’s house for a few days. Rajeev told Raman to drop her. Raman dropped her to the bus stand and gave her tickets and told her about the bus timing and left. After sometime, he came back realising his mistake only to see her still sitting there. He asked to come with him but she declined. He requested her and finally she sat, they left from there. Ishita started crying.
R (softly) - Ishita, please stop crying, please.
I (crying) - tumhe to jel mein dal dena chahiye. You are hurting me. Meri galti kya hai. tumhe na kaha..
R - Tumhari koi galti nhi hai. Sari galti meri hai, I didn’t realise when I started feeling for you and when I asked you, I couldn’t take your denial. It was my mistake that I thought that you also…. Mere trials chal rhe the, I was trying to forget you but you came. Tum batao Ishita main kya karta. I was ignoring you. You know, I can’t maintain eye contact with you because meri feelings jag jati hai.
She stopped crying when she heard him.
R - Ok. Let’s do one thing, let’s just forget everything, we can become friends again. I will try my best to depress my feelings.
Ishita agreed. Raman told her that he will show his city. He took her to her friend’s house first as she had promised. Then they started exploring the city. Ishita was liking the city plus him and his nature. That time when she heard his true feelings, she felt herself pulling towards him but she didn’t want to be as she had three reasons, first she doesn’t want to leave her father, her village and her country, second she remembered him talking to some Susy and last but not the least, he had a dream to become a neurosurgeon and got the admission in America’s biggest institute, so no chance to ask him to come to India. That night she was disturbed and was thinking and talking to herself, sitting in the garden and Raman heard her. Then he got to know what made the sudden transformations in her and thought to clear it. Next day, they were in the car when he asked,
R - Ishita, tumhe kisi se milwana hai, chalogi?
I - Formality kyu kar rhe ho?
He took her to a house and a young lady opened the door. She was pleasantly surprised and welcomed him with a hug. Raman introduced them,
R - Ishita, she is my cousin, my only sister, Susy and Susy, she is Ishita. I told you na.
He said, making Ishita look at him trying to remember.
S - Oh, so she is Ishita Iyer. Hello Ishita.
I - Hello.
S - You won’t believe me but he used to speak a lot about you, your village and family. I met Vandita, she is a superb girl, I’m sure her sister will be like her only. Good to see you dear.
She said, making Ishita smile.
R - You know what Ishita, she is going to be married soon.
S - All thanks to you my dear brother. You know Ishita. Actually It’s love marriage and I was very much scared to inform my parents but he supported me and gave me much needed courage. Infact, he talked to my parents. Finally, I’m getting married next week.
She said and finally Ishita’s misunderstanding got cleared. Soon they left from there. Raman was happy that now there must be no misunderstanding between them. Rest of the days were happier for Ishra and finally the day came. Raman went to drop her. Both were in the car and praying,
R - Please matarani, Ishita samajh jaaye mere pyar ko aur apni feelings ko bhi jo main uski aankhon mein dekhta hu aur mere sath rahe.. hamesha ke liye.
I - Murugan, yeh kaisi pareshani mein dal diya, main Raman ke pas rehna chahti hu par unki is duniya mein nhi, kash Raman meri duniya mein aa jaaye, hamesha ke liye.
Both prayed but didn’t say anything to anyone and soon Ishita went back to India. Both were sad and disturbed. An alliance came for Ishita from the village only and Ishita agreed thinking she would be living close to her father but wasn’t happy. Vandu got to know it and informed Raman. Vandu talked to Ishita,
V - Ishu, yeh sab kya hai? Tune iss rishte ke liye ha kardi. Mujhe to laga tha ki tum dono ke beech sab thik ho gaya hai par tum….
I - Akka, please….
She couldn’t say anything and disconnected the call. Iyers fixed the marriage and started preparations for the ring ceremony. In between this, Raman reached there making Mr Iyer worried. He asked Vandita about the matter who told her that he loves her and she also likes him but stopping herself for Mr Iyer. Raman talked to Ishita and told her to listen to her heart once. Mr Iyer talked to Ishita,
Mr Iyer - Meri pagal gudiya, apne appa ke liye apni khushiyo ko daba rhi thi. Ab apne appa ki ek bat maanegi, ab tu sirf apni khushiyon ke bare mein sochegi, kyonki tere appa ki khushiya uski beti ki khusi mein hai. ok.
Ishita nodded and got ready to marry Raman. Soon their marriage got fixed and bhallas too came. Ishita was sitting in her room when Vandu came,
V - Kya hua? Tu khush nhi hai kya?
I - Aap jeet gayi Akka. Hum ladkiyo ko koi haq nhi hai kuch alag sochne ka. Hum jaha paida hote hai, jaha bade hote hai, itne rishte banate hai, ek din koi aata hai aur humhe vaha se le jata hai, ek nayi duniya mein, apni duniya mein. Sach hai, kabhi nhi hoga, kabhi kisi ladki ko koi aisa nhi milega jo apni duniya chod kar uski duniya mein rehne aaye. Main bhi koi unique nhi hu. Mujhe bhi apni packing start kar deni chahiye…..
V - bas kar Ishu, kitna bolti hai, kisi aur ko bhi mauka de. Aur meri bat dhyan se sun, tujhe koi packing karne ki jarurat nhi hai kyonki murugan ne teri sun li, tujhe koi aisa mil gaya jo apni duniya chod kar teri duniya mein aaya hai, hamesha ke liye.
I (shocked) - Kya?
V - Ha, Raman hamesha ke liye tere pas tere sath teri duniya mein rehne aaya hai, tujhe yahan se dur le jaane nhi.
Ishita got happy and ran to meet Raman. She asked others about him who were sitting outside. Rajeev told that Raman is on the terrace. Ishita ran to the stairs shouting happily to her aunt that she will not go anywhere, will live here only, everyone was happy seeing her happy after a long time. She came to the terrace shouting his name. He turned to her and was surprised. She hugged him tight making him surprised.
I - Buddhu, bol nhi sakte the ki Ishita main sirf tumhare liye aaya hu. You know you are the best. I’m really very lucky to get you. I’m so happy today. Vaise to pehle se fidaa thi par aaj to completely fidaa ho gayi tum par. I love you I love you I love you so much.
She said kissing on his face and finally hugged him again happily. He also hugged her back, finally feeling contented in his life, getting her and her love. After that both got first engaged then married and started a new journey of their lives…..
Here I’m ending this story. Hope you enjoyed reading it.
