"What about the movie that she got so excited and that she loved the movie since then? Let me search for it and watch it", Raman thought before searching for the movie and thanked his Matarani when he found the movie in VIU with subtitles. (If you can open it, please tell me. It came out when I Googled, but it kept bringing me to VIU's home page) He plugged in his earphones not wanting to wake up Ruhi and started watching the movie. Ishita was enjoying herself seeing her favourite on screen couple in her favourite movie. Her parents chuckled seeing Ishita watching the movie as if it was her first time. As the movie ended, she was crying in her Appa's arms. Amma shook her head seeing Appa consoling Ishita.
Appa: Ishu, you still cry for this movie? Come on kanna rona bandh karo na
Amma: You pamper her too much Vishwa
Appa: Let me be na Madhu. Ishu come on
Ishita was sobbing as Appa was slowly wiping the tears from her face.
Ishita: Appa, it's so sad
Amma: Yeh baap bethi bhi na
Appa: Okay let's do one thing. We'll put the beds in the hall like what we used to do last time. Then four of us talk stories and sleep off
Amma: Haan this is nice. It's been so long
Ishita: But Appa, it's not the same anymore. You two have backaches na
Amma: It's just one day kanna, or do you want Raman to come and kidnap you?
Ishita smiled looking away.
Mihika: Ohho akka is blushing
Ishita: Aisa kuch nehi hai okay? He must be tired after putting Ruhi to sleep. And it's already so late, everyone would be asleep by now
Amma: Then okay, Mihika, you go bring out the beds
Ishita: Haan, I'll move the furniture.
They did as planned and brought out the pillows and blankets. They spoke about how different things were without Ishita in the house, and Ishita told them to just shout for her and she'll come running to them. In the Bhalla house, Raman was crying continuously after watching the movie. He placed a pillow beside Ruhi and went to the bathroom to wash his face that was full of tears.
Raman: God it was so sad, it shouldn't have happened that way. But the songs were amazing even when I had to depend on subtitles
He wiped his face before coming to sleep beside Ruhi. Ishita took some time to sleep as it was almost a year since she's been sleeping with Ruhi and Raman, and without them today, she felt restless. She woke up slowly and tried making cinnamon tea to try putting her to sleep, but it didn't work. She glanced at her sleeping family and tip toed out of her house and into the Bhalla house taking the spare key from the Iyer house key holder. She walked carefully not wanting to trip on anything and wake up the entire family. She opened the door of their room slowly, to see Raman hugging Ruhi. A bolster was placed on Ishita's place so Ruhi would feel as if there was someone on both her sides. She slowly closed the door and removed the bolster and slept off hugging Ruhi placing her hand on Raman's.
The next day,
The Iyer family woke up to see Ishita missing from the bed.
Amma: Ishu kahan chali gayi subhe subhe? (Where did Ishu go early in the morning?)
They wanted to search for her around the house when Mihika stopped them.
Mihika: Amma, I told you na, Akka jiju ke bina yahan nehi rukhenge? She took the spare keys and went. Seeing the bed condition at her place neat, she would have gone last night itself (Akka wouldn't stay here without Raman)
