"Hi I am Ishita Raman Bhalla"

Did she just say that!?

"Ishita...RAMAN BHALLA?" I said stressing on my name.

Her cheeks turned tomato red and lips curved into a shy smile in response.

Honestly I liked that effect on her and I secretly wished I get to see more of this.

"Tumhe nahi lagta tumne apna surname zara jaldi hi change karliya?" I asked with a cheeky grin.

"Nahi to!" her response was quick. Quite unexpected.

"Achha? FYI hamari shadi me abhi kuch ghante baki hain" I teased.

"FYI mujhe ye bath pehle se patha hai"

"To phir surname change karne ki koi khas wajah?"

"Han wajah to khas hai. Wo kya hai na jab hum agli baar is tarah akele me milenge tab mai Ishita Raman Bhalla ban chuki hongi. Isiliye socha ke apko wahi naam bataun jo aage mera naam honewala hai"

"Maan gaye Madam" I said bowing down.

"Waise..." I stepped closer closing the little gap that was between us and huskily said looking into her eyes "lagta hai tumhe mujhse akele milne ki bahut jaldi hai. Kaho irada kya hai?" I winked

I felt her breath hitch "Ramannn" she whispered looking down.

My heart skipped a beat.

"Kya?" I said ever so huskily

She looked up. Our foreheads almost touched.

We stood there lost in each other's eyes for God knows how long.

We would stay in that position for eternity if the bell of newspaperwala had not rung.

We moved back 2 steps in an instant.

I remembered we were supposed to be at our respective homes for some rituals were still pending.

"To mai chalun?" I asked her although I didn't want to go away.

"Hmmm" she said nodding in affirmative

"Ok...apna khayal rakhna...Ho sake to thodi der keliye so jana...I know tum rath bhar nahi soyi ho...Aur aaj rath bhi..." I was getting naughty but she didn't let me complete my sentence "Ab apko jana chahiye" she said pushing me with her free hand.

That reminded me our right hands were still firmly held in each others.

"Jane keliye kehti ho aur jane bhi nahi dethi ho?"

"Maine kab roka apko?"

"Hath chodogi tab jaunga na"

"Kya matlab?" she asked confused

I signalled towards our hands

She immediately jerked her hand to withdraw but I held onto it with both my hands

"Raman chodiye na. Koi dekh lega" she begged

"unhun" I nodded in no

"Raman please...apko jana hai na"

"unhun"

"Please na Raman...aap jaoge nahi to phir aaoge kaise?" she tried to reason out

She was right actually I had to leave if I was to come back to take her with me forever

"Ok...chod detha hun...lekin sirf thodi der keliye...ab to ye din sham ki intezar me guzrega jab mai hamesha keliye tumhara hath thaam lunga" I said letting her hand go
