As one look back on the days…weeks…months and years that past the relationship of Raman and Ishita was something worth keeping .. having faced many trails and tribulations. And overcoming their respective differences and blending their families was a task that at one time seemed like a impossible task. Strangely enough that was the very reason why they have fought so hard to work and nurture their relationship. For them the very thought of each other brought them happiness and for them to forget their struggles where not even a option. The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do…

Ishita tried her utmost best to ignore Raman and as they were facing each other and taking down the saris before them, they were automatically drawn to each other. As if the centripetal motion pushed them together. Ishita wanted to hide him. She knew if their eyes meet again longer, she wouldn’t be able to resist him. They had that kind of love that would cross all limits. All consuming and unbearable. For the first time in Raman‘s life, he was overtaken by this……this …. Feeling. In one swift motion Raman picked her up. Ishita’s head was resting on his…

Raman knew that Ishita meant business….. He could even see the tear stains on the page. Wow I really messed up this time he thought. Raman thought of a plan to make things right with Ishita, although he knew that this want a quick fix he believed that he would be able to get her back. Raman filled him his questionnaire, hoping that she would see where he was coming from. Maybe I was putting too much pressure on Ishita, he thought as he struggled to truthfully express his true feeling on paper. He wanted to rush home to her…

The following day when Raman left for work he and Ishita barely spoke just the random greeting in front of the family. Something that wasn’t uncommon with them as they often were lost in their own world sometimes. Raman still was a little dumb founded by Ishita’s whole attitude . Why the sudden cold shoulder,Madrasan Raman thought. I’ll send her a message he thought. When Ishita’s phone went off she thought nothing off it,thinking that it might be just telemarketing. As she opened her messages the name that came up actually surprised her. Raman I’ miss you and I can’t…

So a few days have pass and the happenings of a few night were being to fade away as an unpleasant memory. Even their fights have become less and less……… Well that’s because Raman and Ishita had a “Talk”. Ishita the every dutiful daughter-in law were a cheerful and lecturing as ever… Raman even had a little spring in his step. Whatever could it be? Toshi asked Simi……. I even heard him sing the other day when he was going down the stairs,”Mamiji, Simi said. They both busted out laughing just as Ishita walked in with a basket full of…

“Why would you even do that?Raman thought to himself the reasoning behind it was to hard to comprehend. Raman was hell-bent on revenge; this was the last straw. His rage almost consumed him…… Or should I just wait til the next time……maybe next time wont be there to save Ishita,with his head in his hands he sat on the edge of the bed. Raman was in a tough position. Looking over to Ishita peacefully sleeping he knew that it was a tough decision he had to make. His sleep alluded him and was replaced with worry and sadness. Why now…

Ishita was so busy that she fell asleep whilst playing with the kids. When she woke up the room was dark and there was no one in sight, rubbing her neck she quickly looked around ……her twins were gone. Well its late Raman might have taken them inside, she answered herself. I must have been really tired she thought to herself to fall asleep in the living room. Ishita stretched herself as she slowly made her way to the bedroom. She opened the door to find it empty and dark, where could he be and more importantly… Where are my…

She was back the quick fire, no nonsense madrasan who could set the world on fire with just one look. There midday rendezvous was cut short by Ishita’s phone and she freed herself from the embrace. Raman I have to go Mamiji is looking for me. It was like a big wave came crashing down on him. Raman fisted the matrass of the bed in frustration. All he could do was agree. The twin was a hand full and if he kept her any longer the family would start to ask question and he didn’t have time for all the…

Raman stood by the door, he hung his head. I was too late, just hope Ishita isn’t upset. I will give Shagun a piece of my mind he said. As he was about to open the door the voice he thought was Shagun’s was none other than his dear wife. Ishita. He leaned closer so hear properly and open the door a little to peek inside. And the she was his eyes went round as he was in shock. This was a totally different Ishita to the one who lovingly always took everything in her stride. She was fierce…. He…
