Thudd...the plate dropped from her hands and broke into pieces making noises in the pin drop silence of the room. All stood up from their places and looked astonishingly at Raman not able to believe what they just heard. Tears welled up in Ishita's eyes wondering what cruel game is life going to play with her now.
"Raman...whats dis nonsense. Are you out of your mind? Asked Mr. Bhalla angrily. "Papa pls...I've told you what I wanted to tell. M not answerable to anyone present here." replied back Raman. "But beta..divorce..why are you saying all this. What happened? Tell me. Matter can be solved." Raman cuts her short,"Enough Maa..I don't wanna solve any matter. I came here to inform you all about it. It's my life and I know what I am doing. I want divorce from Ishita-thats final. And I don't want any questions from anyone now."
He barges into his room saying his final words leaving behind shocked faces. "hnn..I knew it. This was bound to happen one day. Maa..it was you only na..My Ishita My bahu. Now see, your this Ishita only is going to spoil the life of your son once again. Now what will you do haan." Simmi said with a sarcastic smile on her face.
"Just shutup Simmi. Is this the time to talk like this. There is a big problem in the house and you are creating a drama." Toshiji scolded her.
"Drama has already been created. And talking about problem..when problem herself is standing here, what else can you expect? Problems will be solved only when she will be out of this house na. M glad the day is not far though." replied Simmi with a smirk.
"Simmi Di pls..stop all this. Are you out of your mind?" Romi tried to stop her and then reaization hit him. "One minute..why are you so happy? Do you know why bhai is doing this? Tell me.." "Oye Simmi..tell us right now whatever you know" ordered Mr. bhalla.
"How will I know papaji. If he didn't tell you people..why will hw tell me? But I am sure, he must have seen her true face and realised that she is not fit for our family. You know truth can never hide for long." Saying so, she takes Ananya in her arms and retires to her room.
Toshiji sits down on the sofa taking her face in her hands and starts crying "Hey Mata Rani..why with my son always. After so many years he finally got his family. He was happy. Then why you did all this. You can give whatever punishment you want to give, to me. But please, leave my son."
"Toshiji..everything will be alright. Don wrry We'll talk to him. Let his anger reduce first." Bhalla ji consoles her.
"Bhabhi..you don't take tension. Nothing will happen. Bhai must have said it like this only. He must not have meant all this." Romi tries to comfort his Bhabhi only to find her in a deadly state standing there."Bhabhi..Bhabhi are you listening."
Ishita stood rooted to the ground on that place where she was. Her hands were still in the same position as were when plate had fallen from her hands. The last words she remembered hearing were of divorce papers. Many other voices entered her ears after that but her mind couldn't register those words. Her vision was blurred due to tears welled up in her eyes. She stood there like a statue..trying to believe what she heard 15 minutes back.
Ishita...Ishita..Toshiji shook her body and her trance was broken."huh?" she asked. what?
"Dont worry puttar..nothing of such sort will happen. I will talk to Raman. He can't do like this. I'll scold him even slap him if required but will not let anything of such sort happen in my house."
Ishita keeps a reassuring hand on her shoulders and heads towards her room. Toshiji tries to say something and follow her but Mr. Bhalla stops her from behind gesturing her to let it be.
The distance from living room to her room seems very long to Ishita today. She remembers her marriage..Raman putting sindoor in her maang, mangalsootra, their pheres, their fights, Raman helping her Amma, being the perfect son-in-law, his gifts like toothbrush, set, saree, card...his gestures of care and protection. She remembers their funny moments spent together...him helping her always. Then she remembers her last night...she felt herself naked infront of him. She remembered him confessing his love..her reply to him and even the promise she made to wait for him for the lifetime. 'God took my words so seriously this time..He is going to make me wait for lifetime only.' She chuckled only to find fresh tears in her eyes. Wiping away them, she entered their room.
He was standing with his face towards the window with his arms crossed. She could see his back and again the view became unclear as tears found their way in those eyes. she didn't want to call him. Why should she? It should be he, the one, who should call and talk to me.
