Yeh Hai Mohabbatein-ISHRA-Burning Desire

Savaal

Vandita was getting impatient as she was waiting for Ishita outside the clinic. She glanced down on her cellphone screen; it is already 16:15 where is Ishu she wondered.

As she was about to give Ishita a call, an out of breath Ishita hurriedly walked to the passenger side of the car.

Sorry Akka, Ishita said as she opened the car door and climbed in the car.

No its fine Ishu,I was just a little worried.

Vandita didn't mind the fact that Ishita was late.

No, she was more excited as she couldn't wait any longer.

Yes today she was finally going to find out all the juicy details from her very secretive sister.

The drive to Vandita's place was fairly quiet as Ishita was busy texting. As Vandita looked over she saw that it was Raman that her sister was so adamantly texting.

I just let Raman know that I will be at your house, Ishita said.

He will come to fetch me later on she continued.

So Akka where is Shravan,Ishita inquired.

I he is sleeping over at Amma's tonight she responded as she unlocked the door and proceeded to walk inside.

Vandita went to put away her bag and Ishita opened a few windows.

Akka can a put on some water for tea! Ishita shouted from the kitchen.

No its fine Ishu, I will be right there she responded.

You just sit back and relax.

Vandita made them some tea and motioned Ishita to sit down on the sofa.

She didn't want to be over exuberant, so she just started to make idle chit chat.

So tell me about your day at work Akka?

They spoke about family and work as she slowly but surely eased her into questions she was dying to ask.

The conversation switches over to Ishita.

So.......... Ishu what happened?

What do you mean Ishita said.

Well Ishu,I think you know what I'm asking......

She shyly looked away trying to avoid eye contact.

Ishita fiddled with her fingers and she paused for a while as she was thinking on how to divert the conversation.

She was stopped by Vandita interjecting as she wanted to open her mouth to say something.

Ishu, It's me your talking to, she encouraged Ishita putting her at ease.

How do you feel about him?

Well Akka, Ishita just gave in.

We eased into our relationship or co-parenting thing whatever it was then.

But later on we started to listen to what the other person was saying.

That's how we got to know each other better.

Once we have become acquaintances then friends and then .........

She relaxed enough to share her personal feelings.

So when did the friendship change into love?

Well we have a very meaningful friendship and she still found it difficult to openly talk about her and Raman.
