Ishra took the headphones and wore it to hear the heartbeat of their kids. They could hear the thudding sound, they look at each other not knowing how to react. Their eyes filled and ishita said-raman, hamare bachche raman. They r actually inside me. She said with moist eyes.
Raman nodded happily and took her in bear hug and said-haan jaan, hamare bachche, our kids. We r going to have twins. Hamare judwa bachche hone wale hai. I am very happy, u r happy naa.
Ishita nodded holding his hand and said-very happy raman. Main bahut khush hoon.
Raman sat next to her and said-toh ab khush rahegi naa, mere liye, hamare bachchon ke liye, jaan. Ishita please thik ho jaa, meri pehle wali jaan ban jaa, I don't have anyone else then u, tu bhi aisa karegi mere saath toh mera kya hoga. Main toh Mar hi jaaunga. He said almost crying making ishita close his mouth.
Ishita -please aisa mat boliye raman, Main khush rehne ki puri koshish karungi, I will try to be normal. I will take care of u and our babies, Raman. Aap please mat roiye.
Raman hugged her tight and said-thank u, thank u jaan. For trying this for ur raman. I love u, I love u alot. He said smiling in between his tears.
Ishita too smiled and said-i also love u alot. Aapke liye kuch bhi kar sakti hoon.
Raman -toh chal ghar chalte hai, Hume bahut khush rehna hai, yes I know what we have lost, we can never get it back but at least we have ourselves for each other. Tera aur mera gham alag nahi hai ishita, if u lost ur parent, I too lost mine. My parent were also killed like urs. Tumhe tih phir bhi apne parent dekhne ki mile, think about me, my parent's body was destroyed in the blast. Main toh unko Aakhiri baar dekh bhi nahi paaya. Hum dono ne apna parivar khoya hai aur ab hum hi Ek dusre ko parivar hai. I want to love u like Noone has loved anyone and in return I want u to love me unconditionally, like the way u always loved me. I just don't want to be ur husband but ur baby too. Likewise I want to love u not only like my wife but like my baby too. Tu banegi naa meri baby aur banayegi naa mujhe apna baby. He asked looking at her to which ishita just nodded.
Raman took her again in side hug and slowly both went out of the room. They walked to Dr shagufta and thanked her for her assistance.
Dr-dont thank me, yeh toh mera kaam hai. Glad ur wife is fine now. But u have to take her to me every week. She needs some more sessions to get fine aur phir aapka pyaar toh hai hi to heal her pain.
Raman nodded and took ishita out. He make her sit in the passenger's seat and settled himself on the wheel. He started the car and drove out of the place. Ishita kept her head on his chest and said -i love u raman.
Raman smiled hearing this and said pecking her temple -love u too jaan. Saying so he continued driving.he drove for sometime and then suddenly stopped the car.
Ishita looked at him and asked -gaadi kyun roki.
Raman -chalo celebrate kiya jaaye hamare twins hone ki khushi, warna hamare bachche humse naraaz ho jayenge. Karogi naa celebrate.
Ishita nodded and said-but kaise celebrate karenge.
Raman -icecream kha kar, aakhir mere bachchon ko bhi toh pata chale ki mumma papa kitne khush hai unke aane ki khabar se.
Ishita -ok chaliye, she said and both went to the nearest ice-cream parlour.
Raman made ishita sit comfortably and told her to order ice-cream for them. Ishita ordered sundae for themselves. Soon their order was served and ishita start relishing the ice-cream happily. Raman smiled seeing her smiling and being herself.
Raman was eating slowly admiring ishita who was busy in having her ice-cream. Soon their ice cream was finished and raman was about to ask for bill when ishita said-i want to eat more.
Raman smiled and ask her to order another one. Ishita order strawberry ice-cream this time and enjoyed it fully while Raman was just enjoying her being happy and childish again.
After having strawberry ice-cream, she looked at Raman again and said-yeh toh bas hamari beti ke liye tha, apne bete ke liye bhi manga loon. Usse bhi toh ice cream khaani hai. She asked cutely making Raman smile.
Raman -haan jaan, jitna khana hai khao. In fact I was waiting to fulfill all ur cravings but tumne kabhi kuch kaha ji nahi. I was dying to see u as urself.
Ishita -I Am sorry raman. Apne dukh mein main itna kho gayi ki aapki takleef dekh hi nahi paayi. But now I will keep ur happiness above all. Mere liye aapki khushi se badh kar kuch nahi. She said holding Raman's hand.
Raman pecked her hand and said-its OK jaan, I am happy that now u r fine now. U enjoy as much as I've cream u want. Then we will go back. OK.
Ishita nodded and ordered chocolate ice-cream this time. She enjoyed ice-cream fully and then they went out of the parlour.
In the way to home, they stopped and enjoyed bhel and golgappe.
At last in the evening they reached home. Ishita was sleeping keeping her head on Raman's shoulder.
Raman picked her in his arms and took her inside. He make her sleep comfortably on the bed and covered her properly with the quilt. Then he went to change and came after a while changing to his night wear. He sat next to ishita for some time and kissed her forehead lovingly .
He sat next to her for sometime admiring her while she was sleeping peacefully keeping her hand under her head. Raman adjusted himself next to her on the bed and opened his laptop to work. As she is not fine, Raman was doing work from home only. He worked till late and then lay beside her and slept.
Soon time started passing, ishita was getting normal with Raman's love.everyday raman took ishita out, they enjoy their lone time together .
Ishita was now five months pregnant, Raman took ishita for her regular check up. Dr checked her and then went to raman.
Raman -hows is she doctor. Now a days I see her sitting alone in mid of night. Kuch puchta hoon toh batati nahi but from last few days, I am observing that she is not OK.
Doctor-yes u r right Mr bhalla, ur wife is improving Mr bhalla, but still she is not over her past. Woh bhi aaj bhool nahi paayi hai iss incident ko. Though she is trying to smile for u but still those horrible memories r haunting her.
Raman -toh what should I do.
Doc-i think u should take her somewhere, where she can live freely forgetting her past, for getting that horrible incident of her parent death. Aisi jagah jahan sirf aap aur woh ho. Jahan unhe sukoon mile. More like a babymoon, where she could freely live in her pregnancy period.
Raman thought for sometime and asked -ok doctor, I will surely take ishita somewhere. I can't see her so sad and gloomy. I want my jaan back just the she was.
Doc -everything will be fine, yeh pregnancy period thoda tough hai, coz she is getting emotional too frequently but as soon as she have her babies in her arms, everything will be fine.
Raman -ok doc, thanks for ur suggestion. He said while the doctor just nodded.
