Yeh Hai Mohabbatein -ISHRA FF- Burning Desire (Episode 61)

(Later the night)

Everyone was settled in their respective rooms as the house was getting ready for bed.
With all the people in the house the bathroom was always busy and Ishita who normally used to house bathroom had to wait for Raman to finish in the en-suite.

Finally silence filled the night air.
What a day Ishita thought to herself as she laid out her night clothes.

An eventful a day as ever.

Raman’s phone went off and as she normally does she picked up the phone
Unknown number flashed on the screen …….shrugging her shoulders she just and answered the phone without thinking twice.

Before Ishita could greet the voice on the other side spoke.
She was unable to speak….she just stood there open mouthed as a wave of nausea.
Hello darling……

All her confidences just disappeared.
Shagun………
And as she wanted to correct her, Ishita thought that she would have some fun

Did you like the pictures I send you; Shagun asked her voice dripped of seduction.

What pictures, Ishita thought………

Do you still remember the times we had together, all the fun me had?
My life is empty without you, Raman….
Leave Ishita and take me back……

That was the last straw, Ishita thought
The jabber continued in the background as Ishita anger took over all her senses, her eyes darken as it radiated a fierce fire, so wild and uncontrollable she almost exploded.

She opened her mouth to talk when Raman came in and she just handed the phone over to him…..
Raman could see something was wrong….
Ishita just turned around and walked to the bathroom.

This was one of her darkest moments…
Ishita had never felt so much hate and anger towards one person in her life.
All her feelings of being unworthy and unloved came back; she was a bit disturbed by this plethora of emotions that made her feel inadequate but in the back of her mind she remembered whose daughter she was.

This………. woman, if I can call her that doesn’t know who she is messing with.
Pestering my husband and blatantly disrespecting me.
Ishita Vishwanathan Iyer.

Raman slowly walked in after Ishita …trying to see how she is handling the situation.
For a second he just watched her.
Sometime all he had to do was distance himself from her.

Her eyes burned with something he has never seen before.

It took Raman a while to see the true beauty of a woman…..this he got to know we he found a faithful partner in a woman called Ishita.
His life went to new heights and he sometimes wished that he would have met her earlier in life.

Guess it’s true what they say….
“When a man finds a wife he finds a good thing, a favour from God. A gift.”

She reminded him what real beauty brings in one’s life.
She was hurt, and he knew how she was when she was hurt…
It was as if there was a storm brewing in her veins …
Her eyes flashed lighting as tears escaped from her eyes.
He didn’t mind that at all he just wanted to be in the middle of that storm.
The storm called Ishita.

Ishita……..Raman probed.
He just wanted to test the waters…….standing behind her he reached out to touch her.

Don’t touch me….
Just leave me alone she yelled.

It took Raman a while to see the true beauty of a woman…..this he got to know we he found a faithful partner in a woman called Ishita.

He couldn’t just leave her like this
In her heart Ishita didn’t want him to go away.
Her mind and her heart were in a huge struggle for superiority.

Raman obeyed her wish and walked back to the room, dejected as he bowed his head.
His life went to new heights and he sometimes wished that he would have met her earlier in life.
Guess it’s true what they say “when a man finds a wife he finds a good thing, a favour from God.”

It was like everything else was dreams.
Did that just happen…….

So everything Raman said was true. She thought.
She knew Raman would never purposely lie but she didn’t know the extent of the problem Raman was having.

What did she say about a picture?
Was it a picture of herself…………………………
No, Ishita stop this nonsense.

Tomorrow you will need to make it clear to Shagun that she is just the mother of his children and not his wife.
She needed to do this…..
Alone.

As Raman sat on the bed lost in deep thought, in what seem to him like forever but in actual fact was most probably just a half an hour.

With hips swaying she walked in the room and that look in her eyes that said “don’t mess with me.”

Her hair was a bit messy when she walked in but shaking some strands free she gave an almost smile….covering up the fact that she was still smouldering inside.

He missed this Ishita……
Jhansi ki Rani……

It was like the moon called out for her shining its light on her face
And her face blossomed like the first bud of the flowers in spring.

The strange thing was that he could not he explain how she looked.
He always liked the angry Ishita …
She was more attractive to him when she was angry.
Like a tiger ready to pounce on its prey.

And all the past memories started to bother Raman.
Those memories that would transcends through time as some of his best moments with her
It would stay with him forever.

The next day Raman woke up to an empty bed…
This wasn’t uncommon to him but there was a note on the bedside table.
Out of curiosity picked up the note …..

What he exclaimed.
He bolted up and ran out.

I just hope she don’t anything irresponsible, he thought as he searched through the house.
