CHAPTER 20
OBEROI MANSION
Priyanka’s Room
Priyanka is sitting on the bed and thinking about her meet with RanRaDuKaMa just now… Rudra comes there and sees her lost in her thoughts… He goes and sit in front of her… Priyanka realised his presence and looks at him..
Prinku: Bhaiya, you here?? Do you need something??
Rudra: I want to talk to you something…
Prinku: Sure, bhaiya…
Rudra: Why did you ask Soumya to find out about Dev?? Any problem??
Prinku: (shocked) Bhaiya, I was just… (Cuts by Rudra)
Rudra: Don’t lie, Prinku… I noticed you were in tension when you called Soumya today… You can’t hide from me… Just tell me what is bothering you…
Prinku: (thinks) I can’t tell him everything… Don’t know how he will react… I will tell him about Ishana and Dev’s relationship only…
Rudra: (sees her again lost in her thoughts… He snaps his finger in front of her face) Prinku, where you lost??
Prinku: No, bhaiya… I actually think of how to tell you… I will tell you, bhaiya… (Tells him about IshDev and Dev’s death)
Rudra is shocked to hear about Dev’s death… His eyes are filled with tears thinking about Ishana’s fate… He felt proud of Ishana for being strong after facing the most painful phase of her life… She doesn’t show her pain to anyone and stay happy for her family…
Prinku: What are you thinking, bhaiya??
Rudra: About Ishana bhabhi, the iron lady… She is such a strong girl… I don’t think any other girl will be this strong if they faced the same situation… My respect for her increased now…
Prinku: You are right, bhaiya… No one can be like her… She is an unique person… She deserves happiness in her life… I want her to get her happiness back…
Rudra: Of course she will get her happiness back… It’s here only, staying with us…
Prinku: (confused) Bhaiya, what are you saying??
Rudra: You don’t understand what I’m saying?? (Priyanka shakes her head in negative) I’m saying about our O only… He is the one can give back her happiness… And..(cuts by Priyanka)
Prinku: She is the one can give back his happiness… Am I right??
Rudra: Exactly!! Both of them will be perfect together… They started to feel for each other… We just have to make them to realise it…
Prinku: Yes, bhaiya… We were discussing about this only just now…
Rudra: We?? That means you and Ranveer??
Prinku: Not only both of us… Raghav bhaiya, Karan bhaiya, Dushyanth bhaiya and Madhu are involved as well in this mission…
Rudra: These many people… I too want to be in this mission…
Prinku: Sure, bhaiya… You are most welcome to Mission Ishkara… But, bhaiya, please don’t tell this to anyone especially about Dev… They will feel bad…
Rudra: Sure, Prinku… So, Mission Ishkara starts… (RuPri shake their hands.. Rudra leaves from her room wishing her good night)
RAICHAND MANSION
Ranveer’s room
RaDuKa are lying on the bed thinking about something… Ranveer looks at them…
Ranveer: What you all are thinking about??
Raghav: What else we will think?? About our Ishu only… We don’t want to disappoint Priyanka… That’s why we agree with her… But, we still feel that Ishu falling in love with Omkara will give pain only..
Karan: He is right… How we can sure that Omkara will accept her after knowing the truth??
Dush: Ishu also will not forgive herself if she learns the truth…
Ranveer: Not again… Priyanka explained that much but still you all are talking like this… Guys, listen to me… If they are meant to be, nothing can stop that… Just recall from their first meet… They can understand each other without speaking any words… You too could feel that but you are scared to accept that… I can understand your concern for her… But, it’s not wrong in trying… We just try to make them understand their feelings… Let their fate decide for them…
RaDuKa: Ok..
Ranveer: Good… Now, go and sleep… I need to make a call… Have to inform him as well…
Karan: When he will be coming here?? It’s been few months we didn’t see him..
Ranveer: I told him to come when he finished his work… Maybe he will go to Chennai first before coming here… (Looking at his mobile) I’m not getting signal here… I’ll go out to make call… You guys sleep first… (Ranveer leaves from the room while RaDuKa started to sleep)
Ranveer finished making his call and turns to go to his room… He stops seeing the main door is open… He got confused who left the door open… He goes to close the door but sees Ishana thinking something sitting on the bench at the lawn… He goes towards her… Ishana still doesn’t realize his presence and lost in her thought…
Ranveer: What are you doing here, Ishu?? That too in this time…
Ishu: Nothing, Ranveer… I was just thinking about something…
Ranveer: Thinking about what?? About your love?? (smirks) Or should I say, thinking about your husband?? (Ishana looks at him shockingly… Ranveer sits beside her..) How long you are going to hide this from everyone, Ishu?? They need to know about this…
Ishu: (in anger) What do you want me to tell, Ranveer?? That I lost my husband on my marriage day itself?? That I lost my husband not even one hour after my marriage?? What do you want me to say?? (Cries) They can’t even bear if I get small scratch… How they will bear if they know the truth?? They will be shattered… I can’t see my family break down if they know about it… Thinking of me lost my lover, they can’t bear it… If they got to know that I lost not only my love but I lost my husband, they will completely shattered… I can’t give them that pain… (Sobbing) I rather suffer myself from seeing my family in pain… I can go to any extreme to keep my loved one happy… I will not bother about sacrificing my life too for them… (Ranveer hugs her and caress her hair calming her down)
Ranveer: Ok… Now, let’s go inside… It’s cold here… You can fall sick… Then, who will prepare for Priyanka’s birthday?? (Tries to cheer her)
Ishu: (surprised) So, you are worrying for your Priyanka only??? Not about my health…
Ranveer: Why should I worry for you?? I worried for Priyanka only… (Runs from there)
Ishu: Haww!! So mean!!! (Chases him around the lawn)
Ishana caught him and he hold his ears apologize to her… Both of them go inside the house unaware of a pair of eyes are looking at them…
Next morning at Oberoi Mansion
ShiOmRu are in the kitchen preparing breakfast…
Rudra: After a long time we are making breakfast together…
Shivaay: (slaps his head) We made breakfast two days before…
Rudra: Bhaiya, that time papa and chote papa with us as well… I was talking about three of us only… Our Obro moment…
Shivaay: Right… It’s been long time we never have Obro moment… Right, Om?? (ShiRu look at Omkara but he lost in his own thought.. Shivaay shakes his shoulder… Omkara looks at them with tears in his eyes..) Om, why are you crying?? (Omkara just hugs his brothers tightly)
Om: I’m sorry… It’s because of me only… I made you suffer as well…
Shivaay: (caresses his back) It’s not like that, Om… Don’t blame yourself… We can understand your pain…
Rudra: Yes, O… Please don’t cry… I can’t see my O crying…
Om: (breaks the hug) I promise you… From now, we will always have our Obro moment… (ShiRu feel happy and three of them share a hug… AniSouPri look at them and felt happy that Omkara is getting back normal)
AniSouPri leave ShiOmRu alone and go to their elders who are sitting at the living room… They told them about what they saw at kitchen… They too felt happy… Annika plays a song and all the girls dance for it happily… The elders are looking at them and enjoy their dance… ShiOmRu too come there hearing the song… They are surprised too see AniSouPri dancing and the elders enjoy looking at their dance… Annika and Soumya drag their husbands to join their dance as well… ShiRu too dance with them… Omkara just smiles watching their dance… Priyanka goes to Omkara and drags him for the dance as well… He refuses at first but melts down looking at her puppy face… He too joins their dance… The elders are happy that their family is getting back the happiness which went lost three years back…
Savitri, Swetlana, Ishana, Ranveer and Madhu reach Oberoi Mansion that time… They are surprised to see the youngsters are dancing in happiness while the elders are watching them… Kalyani sees them and invites them in… They walk inside while the Oberoi youngsters continue their dance… Omkara could feel Ishana’s presence… He stops dancing and turns to her… Ishana is keep on gazing at him… The others too stop dancing seeing the Raichands… They felt embarrassed…
Savitri: Bhabhi, your grandchildren are good dancers… They dance really well… You all must not get bored…
Kalyani: They danced after these many years… We are also happy to see them happy…
Shivaay: It’s our hobby, daadima… Whenever we are happy, we will dance like this… Ishana, won’t you dance if you are happy??
Savitri: No, Shivaay beta… She won’t dance if she is happy… But, she will serve beers to her brothers and her jijus…
Oberois: (shocked) What??
Ishu: Paatima… Don’t embarrass me…
Savitri: I’m saying the truth only… (Om chuckles looking at her… Ishana looks at him feeling embarrassed..)
Rudra: Don’t feel embarrassed, bhabhi… Next time, you gave me beer too if you felt happy…
ShiOm: Shut up, Rudra!!
Ishu: Sure, Rudraa… I’ll give you if your family allow me…
Rudra: How sweet of you, my Ishana bhabhi??
Soumya: Don’t take this as a chance, Rudra… I won’t spare you… (Rudra makes a puppy face… All laugh looking at him)
Ishu: Actually, we are here to discuss about Priyanka’s birthday…
Shivaay: Yeah, sure… Prinku must decide everything for her birthday… All of her wishes and dreams for her birthday must be fulfilled…
Ishu: Sure, sir… We will do our best… Your sister’s wishes will be fulfilled… I promise that… Ok, Priyanka?? (Priyanka happily nods her head)
Shivaay: Good… Annika, Soumya, you too help her as well.. I and Rudra will leave to office… Papa, bade papa, you both take rest today… We will manage our office…
TejSak: Ok, Shivaay…
ShiRu leave to the office while IshSwetRanMa sit with AniSouPri discussing about Priyanka’s birthday celebration… The elders sit with them as well… Omkara turns to his room but Priyanka stops him…
Prinku: Bhaiya, you too join us… Shivaay bhaiya and Rudra bhaiya went to office… At least, you stay with me and help me to give ideas for the party…
Om: (melts down) Ok, Prinku… I’ll stay with you… (Sits beside Priyanka)
Ishu: Priyanka, do you have any idea about your birthday?? I mean what kind of celebration do you want??
Prinku: Actually, I don’t have any idea about it… I just felt to celebrate it grandly…
Ishu: That’s Ok… (Thinks a while) So, what is your favorite color?? We can use it as a theme for the party??
Prinku: (looks at Ranveer and he signs her to tell) Red is my favorite color… (Ishana notes down) Ishana, I want everyone to be in red that day… (Ishana is shocked… Omkara could see her hesitation)
Ranveer: No, Priyanka… Let the decorations be in red… But, the attire are depends on their wish…(signs to Madhu)
Madhu: Yeah… In fact, Ishu doesn’t like red…
Prinku: (pretends to be sad) Really?? Then, it’s ok…
Ishu: (felt bad looking at her sad face) No.. no.. It’s your day… Everything must be on your wish… We will continue with red theme…
Prinku: How??? You don’t wear red?? Then, how you will come to the party?? It’s ok… We change the theme…
Ishu: (holds Priyanka’s hand) I promised your brother to fulfill all your wishes for your birthday… You are ready to change the theme for me… Then, I too ready to wear red for your birthday… (Savitri and SwetRanMa are surprised to hear Ishana agrees with Priyanka…)
Prinku: (grins happily) Really??
Ishu: Really…
Prinku: (hugs Ishana) Thanks, bhabhi… You are really great… (All are shocked with Priyanka addressing her as bhabhi… Priyanka too realised what she said) Sorry… This is because of Rudra bhaiya only… He always call you bhabhi and I too accidentally call you like that… I’m sorry…
Ishu: (smiles) It’s ok… So, the theme will be red…
Om: Prinku, I think we must add another color besides red… It won’t look attractive if all are red only…
Annika: I think Om is right…
Prinku: I too feel like that… I think beige will suits well with red…
Soumya: Exactly!! I too was thinking the same…
Ishu: Then, the ladies will wear red and the men will wear beige… Is that ok, Priyanka??
Prinku: Double ok…
Ishu: But, I need to do something before that… Mr Omkara, can I talk to you a while??
Om: Sure.. We can talk at outside if you want…
Ishu: (nods her head and looks at Swetlana) Anni, you asked about other things that she likes… I’ll join you in a while…
Swet: Sure, Ishu… I’ll manage… (Ishkara go outside to the lawn)
Om: You said that you want to talk to me… But, you are keeping quiet… Anything important??
Ishu: Yes… But, I don’t know how to start… You might get angry with my question…
Om: You just ask… I will try to not to get angry…
Ishu: It’s about your sister, Priyanka’s problem…
Om: Prinku’s problem?? What problem she is having??
Ishu: No.. No… Actually it’s not a problem… It’s actually… Oh, God!!! I don’t know how to say it…
Om: Ok… Relax… Tell me clearly what you want to say…
Ishu: I want to ask about Priyanka’s stammering… Since when she stammers while talking?? I mean since childhood or just recently??
Om: You wanted to ask this only?? (Ishana nods) Prinku spoke well before… But, few years back, she did an accident and the girl died… Since then, she suffers from panic attack… That made her to stammer and she get nervous easily… That girl is none other than… (Cuts by Ishana)
Ishu: Ranveer’s sister… He told us before but he didn’t know what Priyanka faced after that accident?? He didn’t know that the person who caused the pain suffers too… The guiltiness will kill them every day… (She recalls where Ranveer and Rohan was telling Dev that she did an accident… Till now she can’t remember the accident..)
Om: (sees her lost in her thought.. He snaps his finger) I know that.. But, why did you asked about this??
Ishu: To cure her…
Om: We checked with so many doctors but there is no solution for this… But, she is much better now… Sometimes, she able to speak without stammering..
Ishu: Doctors are not needed for this… I have a solution…
Om: What??
Ishu: You will know it later… Let’s go inside now… (Omkara holds her hand… Ishana looks at him confused)
Om: Are you fine, now??
Ishu: (confused) What??
Om: Last night, I saw you sitting at your lawn worried about something… Then, Ranveer came and tell something… But, you were crying saying something… He cheered you… That’s the reason I asked you… Are you ok now??
Ishu: Yeah… I’m fine… Thank you.. (Omkara nods his head and both of them go inside the mansion)
Precap: Ishana’s treatment for Priyanka… Ishkara moments… Oberois and Raichands in temple… A Baba says something to them… Something happens between Ishkara…
