"But Ishima" Ishita shook her head strictly as the kids groaned.
"Nope. You guys just have 1 hour. Then we will have to leave for airport. Papa is waiting for us." She said not giving in to those puppy eyes.
"Chal Ruhi. Jaldi chal. Hame coin change karni hai, games decide karni. . ." She smiled as Adi pulled Ruhi along with him.
(Come Ruhi. Fast. We have to change coins ,and game . . .)"Mai yehi pe hu."She shouted as her kids disappear on the crowd.
(I am here only.)Summer vacation are always the rush time in mall. But she was glad, Raman suggested it.
She learned it hard way that two energetic kids on the plane are nightmare.
If they burn some energy here, they will sleep on the ride, she whispered to herself.
She was about to sit when she saw a familiar face.
"Shagun." She whispered.
After Ashok and her marriage, she was seeing her for the first time in 6 months.
The kids also rarely visited her. Their last visit was 2 month ago that too after lots of persuasion from Ishita.
"Hey Esitha." Shagun settled on the chair beside her.
"Hi Shagun." She softly smiled back.
"Shopping?" Ishita shook her head before pointing towards the brother and sister duo playing on the slide.
"Oh. Tum log yehi ho? Vacation chal rahi hai na? Agar koi plan nahi hai toh mai bachoko movie le chalu?" Ishita sighed at her hopeful tone.
(You guys are here only? Its their vacation right? If you don't have any plan, can I take them for movies?)"Hum log aaj hi Switzerland jaa rahe hai." Ishita muttered back.
(We are going to Switzerland, today only.)"Oh Switzerland" As Shagun stood up, Ishita too followed her.
"Adi hamesha se jana chata tha. I couldn't take him earlier because you know Raman's salary . . . hum afford nahi kar sakte the." Ishita supressed rolling her eyes as she mentioned about Raman's financial situation "Fir jab kar sakti thi, tab wo custody case chalraha tha aur ukse passport pe issue hogawa. I am happy he is finally going."
(Adi always wanted to go there. I couldn't take him earlier because of Raman's salary . . . We couldn't afford it. When I could there was some issue with the passport due to the custody case.I am happy he is finally going.)Ishita passed a gentle smile and was about to turn when Shagun called her again.
"Ishita." She nodded asking her yo continue "Ashan hota haina jab aapka husband aapki, aapki bacho ki saari wishes puri kar sake?"
(Ishita. Its really easy when you have a husband who can fulfill your and your kids wishes?)Nodding quickly with a fake smile, Ishita move toward her kids trying to suppress the unwanted questions within herself.
Was money only the issue? Would we also face the same fate if Raman was in same old position? If I had to say no to their every wish?
*****
Was there such scene in YHM? I can't recall one 😅🤔.
What do you think, was money only the problem between Raman and Shagun?
(7 honest replies and next one will be from Raman's perspective.)
