They both started eating in silence. Ishita took two bites and within seconds, her mouth were on fire. She instantly stood up. she was panting, trying to get air in her mouth to cool it down. She drank all of her lassi but her mouth still felt like it was on fire. Raman saw this and instantly got up. He grabbed his lassi cup and gave it to her. She quickly gulped it all down and finally the heat on her tongue slowly dissolved. She looked at Raman who was to her right on the side making sure she was okay. They shared another intense gaze before they both bursted out laughing. They laughed so hard their stomach started hurting. They both were thinking the same thing: they hadn't had this much fun in years. Suddenly, they heard the sirens of police cars and saw that the police was raiding the dhaaba. They felt a tap on their shoulders and saw that a policeman was standing right behind them.

"Arre, indono ko bhi lejao. Yeh donobhi premi lagte hai." the policeman said.

Ishita and Raman both immediately started to speak. "Hum dono sirf-."

Raman looked at Ishita. She knew what he was trying to say. She let him speak.

"Hum dono pati patni hai, aur hum yaha khaane ke liye aaye hai, time spend karne nahi. Humari ek beti bhi hai." Raman said. He pulled out his phone and showed a picture of Raman, Ishita and Ruhi together. It was the picture from when they went to the awards ceremony a week back. "Yeh Ishita, meri wife, aur yeh Ruhi, humari saat saal ki beti hai."

"Acha theek hai. Abhi pack up karke khaana ghar peh kar lena samjhe?" the officer said.

"Theek hai." Ishita and Raman both said in unison.

They quietly finished their food within minutes and sat back down in the car. They didn't say anything but enough was being said through silence.

"Ishita woh, im sorry mujhe woh kehna pada lekin woh police wale-" Raman started. He felt bad that he didn't ask her first about the whole pati, patni thing.

Ishita started laughing. The thought of having to spend the night in jail when she had never even done something as small as steal a pencil from someone, and spend it with Raman even though they are nothing like boyfriend, girlfriend.

"Nahi, bahot acha kia tumne. Nahi toh hummein pur raat jail mein bitani parti." she said while she giggled.

Raman took the car in reverse and they drove home in silence. They got up to their doors and turned around to talk to each other.

They just looked at each other and realized they were both wearing yellow.

"Tumne bhi yellow pehan hai?" they both asked at the same time. They laughed.

"Thank you Raman. Aaj mujhe bahot maza aaya." Ishita said. She was weirded out by what she was saying. It was like they were having an intimate conversation.

"Yeah, me too! Abh toh tongue mein kuch garbar nahi hai na?" he asked. he was teasing her.

They shared a quick laugh.

"Good night Raman." Ishita said.

"Good night Ishita." Raman said.

Ishita walked inside her house and locked the door. She turned around to find Amma waiting for her.

"Amma? Aap abhi bhi jaag rahe ho?" she asked.

"Haan." Amma replied. "Ishu tumhe kya ho gaya hai. Raat ke do baje hai aur tum us Punjabi wale ke saath ghar aayi. Tum usko pasand toh nahi karti na?"

Raman walked inside his house and locked the door. He turned to find Maa waiting for him.

"Maa? Aap abhi bhi jaag rahe ho?" he asked.

"Haan mein. Teri maa. Meine dekha, us kudi ke saath tu badi battein shaatein kar raha tha. Kuch chakar wakar hai kya us madrasi ke saath?" Maa said.

Will Raman and Ishita reveal their feelings for each other to their mothers or will they keep it a secret? And if they reveal their feelings, what will they be? Do they like each other?

Stayed tuned for the next update!
