ISHQAAN's SEPARATION

Part 23

Ishaan entered the place. He found no one there and realised that he came earlier!

The place-

He goes and sits on the either side of the table! Suddenly he saw a girl coming towards the hall! He saw her and she looked mesmerizing! She wore a black suit but she looked gorgeous in Indian!

Her look- 

His Looks-

She came slowly towards him!

Shreya- HI! You are Ishki aunty's son, right!

Ishaan- Ya! You are the girl mom sent.......

Shreya- Yes! But why do I feel that I saw you somewhere!

Ishaan- Ya! Even I feel so!

That thought for a while and then both of them pointing towards each other exclaimed!

Both- Ishaan/ Shreya!

They both nodded and smiled!

Shreya- Aap woh mandir mai.................

Ishaan- Haan! Well tum mujhe "tum" karke address karo because mai roz "aap", "aap" sun kar tang aa gaya hun!

Shreya- Ok! Tum!

Then Ishaan like a gentleman pulled out the chair for her and made her sit! Then he sat there!

Shreya sat!

Ishaan/Shreya- I wanted to tell you about my past!

Both again- You have a past!

Both again- You start first!

Shreya- Tum shuru karo!

Ishaan- no! Ladies first!

Shreya- mmmmm. Ishaan, I am divorcee!

Ishaan was a bit surprised but he wanted to listen her before giving any wrong judgement! So he calmly said!

Ishaan- hmmm ok! So what was the reason!

Shreya- Actually! I am an orphan too! I don't have any family! I was married at the age of 21 i.e. 4 years ago! I and my ex husband got shifted to Canada after marriage! He was a drunkard! His name is Shivam! woh humesha peekar mere saath maar peet karta tha! Mai chup rahi because My parents wanted me to be silent! Mai 4 saal chup rahi! Kisiko kuch nahi bola! But last year unn dono ki accident mai death ho gayi! Fir last year hum log India aaye! Mummy ji aur daddy ji ko milne! Tab mummy ji aur daddy ji ko pata laga ki Shivam was drunkard aur woh peekar mere saath maar peet karta hai!

Ishaan- Fir ..... kya........hua?

Tears formed in Shreya's eyes!

Shreya- Mummy ji ne apne bete ki side li par daddy ji ne meri side li! Unhone mummy ji ko Cannada bhej diya aur Shivam ko jail! Unhone mujhe apni beti bana liya! Mai ek gynecologist banna chahti hun although meri last year internship chal rahi hai and maine apni padhai beech mai chodd di thi!

She sobbed while Ishaan also felt bad for her and he took a handkerchief out of his pocket and gave her! She took it!

Shreya (in mind)- Koi itna understanding kaise ho sakta hai!

Ishaan- Tum kaisa ladka expect karti ho!

Shreya- Mai chahti hun ki woh mera husband se pehle mera best friend bane, meri baatein, meri situations samjhe!

Ishaan- Shreya! I know mera past tumhaare past jitna horrible nahi hai but my heart aches whenever I think about it!

Shreya- haan bolo! Mai tuhe samjhungi!

Ishaan- I loved someone a lot, and I still love her! She was the best thing that ever happened to me! Her name was Ananya! We met each other during a fest and we became friends! Eventually we fell in love! We decided to tell it to our families and I called her! On the way she met with an accident and I lost her!

He was emotional but didn't show it to her!

Shreya- Ishaan............are you ok?

Ishaan- hmmm! You know mai yeh nahi janta ki mai tumse kabhi pyaar kar paaunga ya nahi but mai tumhara best friend bankar rahunga! Iss baat ki gurantee mai leta hun! Mai tumhara saath dunga! I promise you!

Shreya saw that it was a serious mood there so to lighten the mood, she said!

Shreya- h god! Itna serious banda jhelna padega mujhe!?

Ishaan- Abhi serious hun but hun nahi asal mai! I am a very open guy! Extrovert!

Shreya and Ishaan smiled!

Ishaan- Konse hospital ki internship lene wali ho tum?

Shreya- K&K hospitals! Although world ka best hospital hai!

Ishaan- toh tum internship meri naani se logi!

Shreya- Its your hospital!
