Char Kadam: IshRa FanFic #Completed

Part 47: Do Teer, Ek Nishana

"Mai tumhe is rishte se azad karta hun"

Did he just say that!?

Raman's POV

It took a lot of determination and self - restraint to take her hand in mine for giving it away.

For a second I was back to being selfish and thought of keeping her for myself.

The ease with which she placed her hand in mine gave me a hope of holding her hands forever.

But then again I reminded myself that I was doing this for her happiness.

And NOTHING in this moment mattered to me more than her happiness which apparently was not with me.

But here she was confusing me with her actions.

Firstly she readily accepted my hand while Viren was waiting for her to accept his proposal.

Secondly she struggled to stop me from dragging her hand towards his.

Thirdly she spoke for the first time during this encounter and the first word she spoke was Raman.

She was begging me to stop.

She was probably scared of the consequences.

She was probably worried about what people would think.

So I tried to comfort her by saying "Its ok Ishita"

I expected her to calm down and agree to go with him, but she was still adamant and pulled her hand out of my hold and yelled at me.

"Raman mai apki honewali biwi hoon" she said loud and clear.

It felt as if she was announcing to the world that she belongs to me.

I cannot explain what it felt to be given that right over her.

When she pointed towards the sparkling solitaire on her ring finger I realised the announcement was not for the world but for me and probably to the person still standing with his extended hand in anticipation of being accepted.

Which reminds me why we are here.

I caressed the symbol of my love, the symbol of our allegiance, the symbol of my right on her, realising this is what stopping her from going ahead.

With a heavy heart I had to say "Mai tumhe is rishte se azad karta hun"

Without waiting for her reaction, I tried to pull out the beautiful ring that sat on her ring finger.

Thud... no it was not the sound of the ring slipping away and falling on the floor....

It was the sound of something hard and fast landing on my left cheek.

Slap...It is called a Slap my mind registered after a few seconds.

Ajnabi's POV

I was literally not in my senses when I went on blabbering whatever came to my mind.

I could not stop talking in my excitement.

But she did not speak a word.

It sure bothered me but then I thought that she was too surprised to react.

It was now time to reveal my true identity to her.

I did that with all grace presenting myself in front of her asking her to walk by my side for entire life.
