Ishita sighed in relief hearing yes from Chuniya's mother and thought -now Raman will teach chuniya in my house, isse mujhe unke saath jyada time bhi milega spend karne ko aur laajo(chuniya's mother) ko bhi koi problem nahi hogi. Glad I could save raman from this hurt. She was thinking when she thought something and said -but raman ko main Iske liye ready kaise karungi. Kar lungi, kuch keh kar. Yahin keh dungi that I want to spend some more time with him. Chahe joh soche woh mere baare mein but at least unhe dukh toh nahi hoga. She thought and start looking for chuniya.
After a while she saw chuniya coming all angry, she went to her mother to make her agree again when ishita called her. Chuniya went to her all gloomy when ishita told her the idea she thought. Chuniya got happy hearing this and hugged ishita tight.
Chuniya -thank u didu. Aapne kitna achcha idea nikala. Ab main roz raman sir se mil paaungi. I love u didu.
Ishita got happy and said -i love u too bachcha, but tumhe Ek kaam karna hoga. Tumhe raman ki laajo ki baat nahi batana hoga warna unhe bura lagega. Nahi bataogi naa.
Chuniya -nahi didu, why will I. Main khud nahi chahti ki unhe koi dukh ho. Main unhe kuch nahi bolungi. She said smiling while ishita finally sighed in relief.
Later in night, Raman was waiting for chuniya and their dinner but none came. At last he called ishita to ask about chuniya.
Ishita -woh yahin hai, mere saath.
Raman -arey what she is doing there. Today she will not come here or what. Padhna nahi hai kya.
Ishita -nahi, she said shocking raman.
Raman -kya matlab nahi padhna??
Ishita -i mean wahan nahi padhna, chuniya ko aapse mere ghar mein padhna hai. She said meekly scared of his reaction.
Raman -tumhare ghar mein, but why.
Ishita -kyunki main aisa chahti hoon. Aaj kal Aap college mein itne busy hai ki hum lunch bhi saath nahi kar paate, so I thought we can have dinner together at least. Kyun galat socha kya, kya itna bhi haq nahi mera aap par. She said trying to convince him and he said -nahi, aisi koi baat nahi. If u want, I can teach chuniya there only, phir hum dinner bhi kar lenge. Actually I too wanted to meet u at dinner but phir lagaa Kahin tumhe bura naa lage. Aakhir tumhe Ek ladki ho,i don't want to do anything jisse log tumhe kuch galat kahe. He said making ishita sob.
Ishita -aap kitne achche hai Raman aur log aapke baare mein kaisa sochte hai. She thought and said wiping her tears -aisa kuch nahi hai, Aap aa jaiye.
Raman heard her voice and realised she is crying. He got worried and said -r u OK ishita, tum ro kyun rahi ho.
Ishita -main ,nahi toh. Aap aayenge naa.
Raman -ofcourse. In fact I am coming. He said and get out of the house.
Soon he reached ishita's house, ishita and chuniya welcomed him and started to serve food when he said -pehle padhai kar li jaaye, I don't feel like teaching aftef having food.
Chuniya nodded and raman settled on the couch. Chuniya settled next to him and he started teaching her. Ishita went and made tea for him. She gave him tea and he start sipping it thanking her. Ishita smiled and went out. She stand at the window and start looking at him who was all busy in teaching chuniya in between sipping his tea while ishita was just admiring him.
Ishita -aisa lagta hai bas hamesha aapko aise hi dekhte rahun. Kaash aisa hota ki aap hamesha ke liye mere ho jaate raman. Main aapke liye sab kuch karne ki taiyaar hoon naa Ek baar mujhe apna banaa lijiye. She was looking at him and was thinking. Like he heard her words, he raised his head and look at her. She felt awkward and went from there while Raman smiled seeing her and thought -kitna achcha lagta hai jab tum aise mere aas paas rehti ho. Kaash aisa hota ki tum iss tarah hamesha mera paas raho, saath raho. He was thinking and smiling when chuniya asked him something and he start teaching her again but both were thinking about each other every now and then.
Soon ishita made dinner for them and called them.raman and chuniya came and ishita served them both. Raman got happy seeing butter chicken for him along with palak paneer.
Raman -wow,aaj toh sab mera hi favourite bana hai.
Ishita smiled and said -sab aapke liye hi hai, khaiye.
Raman nodded and all start eating. All were eating and getting happy having a family like feeling. Chuniya was very happy sharing meal with them while Ishra were looking at each other every now and then.
Soon they completed their meal and chuniya went after completing her studies. Raman saw chuniya going and said -toh main bhi chalun. He said meekly not wanting to go.
Ishita nodded meekly not wanting to let him go. He started walking slowly while she was just looking at him. Then suddenly said -raman.
He turned and she asked -coffee peeyenge.
Raman nodded smiling. And she went to make coffee in kitchen. He too went behind her to give her company. She got conscious with his presence and burned herself a little in nervousness. Raman went to ran and said -shit, yeh kya kar diya.
Ishita -its OK, Aap jaiye. Main thik hoon.
Raman -arey, aise kaise. Kitna jal gaya. Chalo mere saath.
Ishita -main thik hoon raman, she was saying but he took her to the basin and washed her hand. She closed her eyes feeling cold water and his warm touch on her hand. He was washing her burn while she was just lost in his touch. He then took her to the room and asked for first aid box while she was just looking at him.
Seeing her not responding Raman said loudly-ishita, first aid box.
Ishita's trance got broke and she showed him the box. He brought the box and start applying cream on her hand while she was just looking at him without blinking her eyes.
Raman -ab thik lag raha hai, he was asking and look at her but stopped seeing her gaze on him. She looked away and said -main coffee le kar aati hoon.
Raman -u sit here, main laata hoon. He said and went.
After sometime, he came with two mugs of coffee and was looking for her but she was nowhere. He was looking around when she came with two shawls and said wrapping one around him-chaliye terrace par chalte hai. Aaj full moon night hai. The view must be beautiful.
Raman nodded and both went to the terrace. They sat together and start sipping their coffee enjoying their togetherness and the beauty of the night when ishita came closer and kept her head on his shoulder. He just smiled and wrapped his arms around her .both were sitting even after having their coffee and when raman hold her hand. He entwined his fingers in hers and softly pecked the back of her palm. She smiled and snuggled into him, he wrapped both the shawl around them and sat together silently just enjoying each other's company.
They were happy and feeling contented together. Both were thinking to say something but were reluctant to say anything so both stayed silent trying to be happy in whatever they r getting.
Soon ishita slept keeping her head on his chest. He looked at her and smiled. He pecked her temple and was going down to peck her lips too but stopped herself and thought to go back before he commit some mistake. He picked her in his arms and took her downstairs and then to her room. He tucked her in bed and covered her properly, and finally went out locking the door. Then he went home smiling remembering their moments .
Soon time started passing,it has became their daily routine that everyday raman came to her house,he teaches chuniya and all had dinner together. Then chuniya went and Ishra had coffee together having each other close to themselves. Both were happy with their relationship but want to go ahead in it.
