CHAPTER 21

Ishkara walk inside Oberoi Mansion and go towards Priyanka…
Ishu: Priyanka, did you tell what are your wishes for your party??
Prinku: Yes, I told some…
Swet: Ishu, she said that she wants a grand celebration but she doesn’t have much idea about it…
Jhanvi: Because, this is the first time she asked for grand celebration…
Tej: Exactly… She prefer to be simple… Just like Omkara…
Savitri: Our Ishu also like that only…

Annika: We can see that… Simple clothing, chain and earrings…
Madhu: It’s may look simple but actually that are the most dearest one… (All look at her in confuse) Because, our Ishu wear them… (Hugs Ishana’s shoulder) Because she is the most dearest in our family… (Ishana slaps her head while others just smile looking at them)
Ishu: It’s ok, Priyanka… You write down what are your favorites… We will see what we can do… (Priyanka nods her head)(to Omkara) Do you have any printer here??
Tej: We are having it at our study room?? Do you need to print anything??

Ishu: Yes, uncle… Can I use it??
Shakti: Sure, beta… Om, take her to our study… (Omkara takes Ishana to study room)
Ishana searches something in the internet and prints them… Omkara tries to look at the papers but he couldn’t see… After few minutes, Ishana gets up from her place…
Ishu: It’s done… Let’s go… (Omkara just obey and follows her)
Ishana hand over the papers to Priyanka… Priyanka looks at the papers and makes a weird face… She turns to Ishana in confused while Ishana just smiles…

Prinku: What is this??
Ishu: This is your task… You have to practice to read this…
Jhanvi: Task?? (Takes the papers and read it) Tongue twister?? But, for what??
Ishu: To overcome her nervousness, stammering, and to gain more confident in herself… This will the perfect solution… (Holds Priyanka’s shoulders) I know what made you become like this… I’m not saying that these are your weaknesses… We all know that you are the strongest girl… In fact, I too impressed with you when you forgive Ranveer for whatever he did to you… But, some people are thinking that these are your weaknesses… So, I decided to give you a birthday gift… I want you to give a speech during your party without stammering… Who else thought that Priyanka is weak, they will know who is the real Priyanka… So, you have to practice to read this many times to yourself… You can easily overcome your nervousness and stammers… Then, you will be able to face all the guests with confident…

Prinku: (cries and hugs Ishana) Thank you… I thought that I will be like this forever… But, you give me a new hope to overcome these problems… You know?? I don’t celebrate grand party because I can’t face the guests… I always scared that they will underestimate me… So, I always avoid to talk with the guests… If my family introduce them to me, I just smile at them… They will talk with me nicely because I belong to the Oberois… After I left, they will say ” high class family but their daughter having this kind of weakness…” I will just cry and leave from there… (Cries badly)

Ishana just hugs her and caress her hair… Everyone felt bad for Priyanka… They didn’t think that their angel having these many pain in her heart…
Pinky: (wipes her tears) Oh, my maata!! Who dares to talks about our Prinku like this?? I will not spares them… You don’t worry, Ishana… I will helps Prinku with this tongues twister… I will makes those people who talks about Prinku to twist their tongue seeing her speech…
Prinku: (hugs Pinky) Thank you, choti ma…
Omkara hugs Priyanka and kisses her forehead… SwetRanMa hug Ishana…

Ranveer: You know what, Ishu?? You always impress me…
Swet: Ishu, till now I never regret that I don’t have a child… You know why?? Because I have you as my child… I’m really proud of you…
Ishu: (hugs Swetlana) And you are always my mother…
Madhu: (hugs them) Mine too.. (Ranveer slaps her head gently)
The Oberois just look lovingly at the bond they are sharing…
Savitri: You are forgetting me… (Pretends to be hurt)

Ranveer: How we will forget you, daadima?? You are the root of the family… (They hug Savitri)
Savitri: Ok… Ok… Now, continue with your work…
Kalyani: We planned to go to temple this evening… You come and join us as well…
Pinky: Yes, aunty ji… Today is an auspicious day… Whatever we prays, it will happens…
Savitri: (thinks a while and looks at Ishana) Ok, bhabhi… I have an important prayer as well…
Tej: That’s good… We will go together…

Savitri: Ok, beta… Ranveer, you call RaDuKa and ask them to try to come back fast… (Ranveer agrees and goes to call them)
Kalyani: One more thing… All the ladies must wear saree…
Savitri: But, these two don’t bring sarees with them… (Pointing at IshMa)
Swet: Never mind, daadima… I will give them two of my sarees… I’ll go and bring them…
Prinku: No need of that… Most of my sarees are still not used by me… I will give them any of the sarees… (Swetlana smiles agreeing with her)

Tej: Good… I think better you all start to get ready now…
Shakti: Bhai Saab is right… Then only you will get ready by evening… (JhaNky give an angry glare to their husbands while TejSha smile mockingly at them)
Kalyani: Stop pulling their legs… Now, go and do your works… We need to prepare few things for the puja…

Evening at Oberoi Mansion

All are getting ready to the temple… Shivaay and Rudra too are back from office.. Kalyani is searching for something… Ishana sees and goes to her…
Ishu: Daadi, are you searching for something??
Kalyani: Yes, beta… I need to cut this thread… (Showing a roll of jasmine flowers) I’m searching for the scissors but couldn’t find it… (Priyanka comes there as well)
Prinku: Just now, I saw Om bhaiya took it… It must be in his room… Ishana, can you get it… Papa called me and I need to go to him… (Ishana hesitates) Don’t worry, Ishana… Om bhaiya is not in his room… (Ishana smiles in relieved)

Ishana goes to Omkara’s room… She looks for the scissors and find it beside his bed… She takes it and turns to go… Omkara comes out from washroom wiping his hair… He doesn’t see Ishana and bumps into her… Both of them fall on the bed next to each other… Ishana’s hand is on his right arm while Omkara’s hand is on her waist.. Ishkara share an eyelock… Both of them break their eyelock… Ishana looks admiringly at his loose hair which is still wet… While, Omkara looks at her clean face with no make up at all… Indeed she looks beautiful… A strand of her hair fall on her face and disturbing his view… He brings his hand near her face and tugs her hair behind her ears… Ishana feels shy with this closeness… Omkara smiles looking at her… Ishana remembers something and looks at him… Omkara gives a confused look to her… She moves his towel which is on his shoulders… Omkara startled with her move… She looks at his wound and caress it gently… Omkara feel amazed looking at her concern for his wound…

Ishana: (looks at him) Is it still painful??
Om: It’s gone with your touch… (Realised what he said) I mean it is fine now… (Ishana just smiles and both again lost in their eyes)
Priyanka and Madhu are walking pass Omkara’s room… They are shocked to see the scene in the room..

Prinku: I planned for them to get closer but I didn’t expect this much of closeness… I thought they will get to know each other first but here… (Continues by Madhu)
Madhu: Something else is happening… I don’t understand one thing… What they can see in their eyes?? Most of the time they lost in their eyes only…
Prinku: (chuckles) This is called eyelock, Madhu… No one will understand what their eyes are saying… It’s only understood by the loved one…

Madhu: Yeah, right… You were like this when you love Ranveer bhaiya??
Prinku: But, not this much of deep eyelock… (Realised what she said) Ok.. Now let’s watch them…

Madhu: Great escape, Priyanka… I’ll talk to you later… (They continue watching at Ishkara)
Ishkara realised their position… Omkara immediately takes his hand from her waist and Ishana takes her hand from his arm… Both gets up from the bed feeling embarrassed thinking of their position just now… Ishana adjust her saree… Omkara just realised she is wearing saree and mesmerized looking at her through the mirror in front of him… Ishana turns to leave but stops hearing his voice…

Om: Thank you… (She turns to him in confused) For agreeing with Prinku’s request and for your afford to cure her…
Ishu: I don’t want to ruin her happiness by refusing her… Her smile is important for me… And, don’t worry… She will be fine soon… You can trust me…
Om: I trust you more than myself… (Ishana is surprised with his answer but she just smiles and leave the room)
PriMa see Ishana is coming and they escape from there… Ishana forgot to bring the scissors… She again goes to Omkara’s room… Omkara is drying his hair and Ishana knocks the door… Omkara knows it is her only… He turns towards her…
Ishu: Daadi asked for scissors… I came to take it just now but I left it here… Can I?? (Omkara nods his head and continue drying his hair… Ishana goes and takes it from the bed… She leaves from the room…)
Ishana goes and give the scissors to Kalyani… She helps them to prepare things which will be needed for the puja…

PriMa are telling Ranveer and Rudra what they saw just now…
Rudra: I think the fate is helping us in this Mission Ishkara as well…
Ranveer: What are you saying??
Rudra: We planned to make them talk about themselves, their past, likes, dislikes… Then only, love, romance and marriage… But, here romance started first… What else we can say other than fate?? I think the fate might make them to get married by today itself… (PriVeer and Madhu laugh listening to him)
Prinku: Let’s go inside… They must be ready now… (They go inside the house)
All are ready to leave to the temple… As Kalyani said, all the ladies are dressed in saree… After a while, they leave to the temple… TejVi, Kalyani and Savitri in one car… Shivika and ShaNky in one car… Ishkara and PriVeer in one car… While, RuMya and SwetMa in one car… RaDuKa are coming in one car from Raichand Mansion…
They reach the temple and get down from the cars… While walking inside the temple, they saw a Baba giving blessings to some people there… They go to him and take his blessings… The Baba look at them and smiles…
Baba: (towards Kalyani and Savitri) You are worrying that happiness has left your family… Don’t worry… It’s already with you only… Now, it will always stay with you…
KalSav: Thank you, Baba ji…

Baba: (towards TejVi and ShaNky) All your dreams will come true… (They thank him) (towards ShivIka and RuMya) It’s time for you to start your life… (Towards PriVeer) Whatever you are wishing for, it will happen but you have to struggle a little… (Towards RaDuKa) Keep on trying… It will not fail… Don’t think to change the fate… It will not happen… (Towards Swetlana) You had rectify your mistake… Don’t worry about your past… There is someone to take care about it… Just take care of your health… You are going to be a good mother…(Towards Madhu) This family will take a good care of you than your own family… Don’t leave them at any cost… Your heart is beating for someone but it will stop after another heart starts to beat for that person… Then, this heart will beat only for you… That day is not very far…(Towards Omkara) The person caused your pain will be your healer…

But, that person is not the real reason for your pain… Not everyone will get another chance to live again… Don’t let it go from your hand… You will regret later… (Omkara looks at Ishana) Your heart knows it, your eyes recognised it but your mind is not accepting it… The truth that you think is the truth is not the truth… The truth that you will hear from the third person is not the truth… The actual truth is the real truth… You will know it on the right time… Till then, be patient… (Towards Ishana) Struggling alone in your battle?? Don’t worry… The victory will be yours only… The God makes you suffer a lot because she knows you are strong enough to face this cruel world…

Each and every person who makes you suffer will face her wrath… You are her incarnation… Don’t think that your life ended before it got started… Now only your life is going to start… And it’s not very far… It stays nearby you only… The fate will unite you with your life… (Gives her a small box of sindoor and a lamp) Place this box at the tray in front of maata raani and lights this lamp after the puja finished… (Ishana hesitates to take the sindoor box… The Baba smiles…) This belongs to Maata Raani… You don’t have to scared to take this… Just take it and do as I say…

After you light the lamp, kneel in front of her and pray… You will understand what she wants… (Ishana takes the sindoor box and the lamp from the Baba… They turns to leave but the Baba stops Kalyani… He asked others to go first…) Don’t let this girl go… She is the one going to protect your family from the evils… If you let her go, you all will suffer… As long as she is with you, no danger will come near to you and your family… All the dangers need to face her first before reaching your family… Whatever may happen in the future… But, you must not let her go… She is the one will bring brightness in your family again… (Kalyani nods her head and go to her family… The Baba laughs..) The fate started to play the game with this two lost souls… How they are going to face it, Maata Raani only knows?? (Folds his hand) Maata Raani, you have to take care of everything… I did what you asked me to do…

Everyone walk inside the temple to attend the puja… Ishana placed the sindoor and the lamp on the tray as said by the Baba… Everyone involve in the prayers and express their prayers for Maata Raani… After the puja ends, Ishana goes near the idol and lights the lamp… She kneels in front of the idol and prays folding her hand with her eyes closed… She deeply prays for everyone happiness… The Oberois and Raichands are looking at her… A small girl runs here and there hiding from her mother… She accidentally hits the tray and the sindoor box almost fall on Ishana… But, Omkara catch it in his hand on the right time and the sindoor spilled on his hand… His hand is just above Ishana’s head… All felt relieved that the box didn’t hit Ishana’s head… But, that doesn’t last for long… Ishana finished her prayers… She opens her eyes and doesn’t realise that Omkara is standing in front of her… Omkara too doesn’t realise that Ishana finished her prayers… Before he could remove his hand from her head, she gets up from her place and hit his hand and makes his palm touches her head… All are shocked with the happening including Ishkara… He takes his palm from her head and sees the sindoor is exactly filled on her middle partition… Everyone are shocked to see Ishana’s maang is filled with sindoor… Ishkara share an emotional eyelock… A strong wind blows Maata Raani’s chunri… It flies and falls on Ishkara’s head…

The Baba looks at the scene and smiles…
Baba: (looks at the sky) Maata Raani, you want to see this only, right?? It happened in front of your eyes… You destined them to be one… Now, no one can separate them!!! (He leaves from there wiping his happy tears)
Ishkara still standing in the same position… Both are recalling their previous marriages and having tears in their eyes… Omkara removes the chunri and goes to ShiRu while Ishana goes and hugs Swetlana… Other people started to talk among themselves… The Oberois started to leave from the temple with Raichands… No one speak anything on the way back… They reach Oberoi Mansion…
Raghav: Shivaay, we are leaving now…

Shivaay: I can understand your feelings… And, we are not less… Take care of Ishana… I think she is very upset… We will see tomorrow…
Raghav: Yeah, sure… Take care of Omkara as well… (Shivaay nods his head… Raghav bids bye to the Oberois and gets in the car leave to Raichand Mansion)
The Oberois go inside their house… No one speak anything about the temple incident… They decide to not to upset Omkara by talking about it…

Precap: The Oberois know about Ishana’s past… SwetMa and RaDuKa to cheer Ishana… Ishkara talk… Omkara kisses Ishana’s forehead…
