Bonded by a Symbol of Love

Raman: Will you... marry me?

Ishita's eyes started brimming tears. The Iyer family were celebrating on the inside. Ishita wondered, "Ravan Kumar, I got married to you twice, and you're asking me for the third one? Offo how cute you are" Ishita's tears of joy made their way down her cheek. She looked at her family and they nodded. She looked into Raman's eyes. She held his hands tighter.

Ishita: I'll marry you Raman, I'll marry you. Even I feel lost without you, just that I didn't have the guts to say it to you. I'll come in your house and it'll be a new start in life for us.

Pihu was happy that her Ishima would be coming back to their house. The best part was, she'll get to witness their wedding.

Pihu: Papa? You'll marry Ishita aunty? Then she'll come to our house?

Raman went to Pihu. Ishita went behind him. Raman bent to Pihu's height and said,

Raman: She'll be with you, with us, in our house.

Pihu: Sachiii...? Yayy Ishita aunty meri mumma banegi!! Ishita aunty meri mumma banegi yayyyy!!!

Pihu was jumping in happiness. The whole Iyer family came and hugged Ishita. Her tears weren't stopping. Raman came and wiped her tears. Ishita smiled. Raman held his head as he felt all these has happened before. The others looked at him and then at Ishita. Ishita nodded whispered saying "Ruhi". The others understood.

Ishita: Pihu, don't tell this to anyone there okay?

Pihu: We discuss that later pleaseeee... So many functions... Engagement, Mehndi, Sangeet, Wedding... We need to prepare!!!

Raman: No Pihu, I was thinking about having a Madrasi wedding. You know wake up at 4.30am and all?

Ishita: Madrasi wedding?

Raman: Haa one thing I hate is waking up early in the morning, but the things after that are wonderful. Wait all these has happened before?

Ishita smiled. He was getting flashes of their weddings. She was sure.

Ishita: I like the idea of the Madrasi wedding, hai na Amma?

Madhu: Haan Ishu, tomorrow is a good day, we can have the engagement and mehndi tomorrow.

Prakash: Yes, we shouldn't delay this any further. We'll finish the wedding in a week.

Ishita smiled and blushed. Even she didn't know why. She was happy, she was getting back the love of her life. She'll be living in that house again. She'll be with him after 2 long years. Raman smiled looking at Ishita. Even he was happy to have her in her life. But then one thing struck him. What will the others in the Bhalla house say? Will they agree?

Raman: Papa, what will we say to the others at home?

Prakash: Raman, its your life, only you have the rights to decide, not them. I'll take care of your mother. We'll just inform the others, if they want to come, let them. If they don't, just ask them to stay away. You're the eldest son in the family, you have the rights.

Raman: Papa, actually I thought of calling only our families. Like just the Bhallas and Iyers.

Ishita: I agree, your blessings are enough. And of course we'll call Shagun, Mani and Ashok.

Raman didn't like the name Ashok. He was possessive over Ishita now itself. But he decided to keep his mouth shut. It's a big thing that Ishita decided to marry him. So what if she calls Ashok right?
