Ps- Thank you so much friends for all your lovely comments! Love you all loads!

Present day,

Shock was an understatement in the eyes of Raman, Adi and Pihu.

Adi- WHAT? WHAT DID YOU SAY? MUMMA? AND RUHI? (points at Ruhi)

Adi and Ruhi run into each other. They cry in each other's arms after 7 long years.

Adi- RUHI!

Ruhi(sobs)- Haan.. haan bhai!

Adi closes his tight crying happy tears. Adi was secretly thanking his stars for returning his sister back too.

After a long time of crying and consoling each other for the lost seven years, they hug each other close having a peaceful smile. Pihu too comes to them.

Pihu- Bhaiyya..

They break the hug.

Ruhi(happily)- Pihu?

Pihu- haan..

Adi- Pihu, I told you na Ruhi, your didi! She's your didi!

Pihu- Sachhi bhai?

Adi- haan Pihu..

Pihu happily hugs her Ruhi didi tight and Ruhi too hugs her back happily.

Next, Ishaan approaches them.

Ishaan- No one loves me!

He pouts cutely.

Ruhi and Pihu break the hug.

Ruhi- Arrey no Ishu! Bhai, Pihu, he's Ishaan our chotu brother.

Raman was standing in the same place till now. He couldn't blink his eyes after seeing Ruhi. She was a young girl now, but he could still identify her. Tears were flowing endlessly seeing the siblings hug. But now Ruhi's words shocked him. Now he looked back at the photo which he saw a while ago and looked at Ishita, who was crying happy tears. But one look from him made her tremble in fear. But his eyes lacked any accusing look. His eyes were waiting for her answer. As she understood his confusion, she blinks her eyes making him sure of.  He smiles looking at her and looks at Ishaan lovingly. He'd a son which he never knew of. All he could do was curse himself for spoiling the precious 7 years of life with his own hands.

Adi- REALLY?

Ruhi- Yes..

Adi- Ishaan?

Ishaan- Adi bhaiyya?

Adi opens his arms for him and little Ishaan happily run into his arms. He wraps his tiny arms around his neck giggling happily.

Adi(cries caressing his head)- You.. you're my brother? Ishima?

He looks at her to get an assuring look. He closes his eyes tight trying to accept another new truth with happy tears!

Ishaan next hugs Pihu happily and Pihu gets more excited as she has become a big sissy now!

Raman- Ru.. Ruhi?

Ruhi looks at Raman and a million emotions explode in them.

Ruhi(sobs)- Papa!

She runs to him and gets engulfed in his arms happily. Raman lost his control on his emotions and cries happy tears.

Raman(sobs)- Ruhi! You're alive? (laughs) You're alive.. Ishita.. Ruhi! (he looks at her in between)

He breaks the hug and again hugs her not able to control his happiness. He was confused of her being alive but anyway it's the best for his angel back in his arms. He was treasuring this moment forever forgetting the surroundings. After a long crying and consoling session, they break the hug.

Ruhi(sobs)- Papa, calm down! I won't go anywhere now!

Raman hugs her again happily kissing her forehead. All his yearning of 7 years has finally come to an end.

Ishaan- PAPA?

Raman breaks the hug and finds him with a yearning look. He kneels down in tears and holds his hands in his.

Raman- Ish.. Ishaan?

Ishaan- Haan Papa!

Raman hugs his newly found son emotionally. He cries to have missed 7 years of his life seeing him grow. He missed seeing his jaan getting pregnant, he missed pampering her, he missed his birth, he missed his first step, he missed EVERYTHING! How he wished he could go back in time! But it was impossible. He was hugging him tightly regretting for all the lost moments. Ishaan too cries which makes him break the hug.

Raman(wipes his tears)- Why are you crying bachha?

Ishaan- Why did you leave us? Don't you love me or Mumma?

Guilt pierces his heart once again.

Ishita- Ishu, don't..

Raman- Wait Ishita! (Turning again to Ishaan) Tell me Ishaan!

Ishaan(sobs)- Call me Ishu! The people I love the most call me that!

Raman(smiles in between his tears)- Ok my ISHU! (All the Ishu's were cute and special in his life!)

Ishaan- Why did you never come to us? You know how much me and Mumma missed you. Mumma used to cry every night after I sleep. Why Papa?

Ishita was shocked with the new discovery. He knew everything. Raman looks at her with guilt filled eyes. He again looks back at ISHU.

Raman- Ishu, can you forgive Papa for once? I promise I'll never let this happen again! I'll leave anyone of you.

Ishaan- Ishu promise?

Raman(smiles)- Yes Ishu promise!

Raman hugs him again happily kissing his forehead with all the love he could. He looks at his other kids who were looking at him with tear filled eyes. He opens his arms for them and at once all of them get engulfed in his arms. He closes his eyes happily but opens immediately as he felt someone missing. He finds that someone, crying happy tears. He opens his arm smiling and as she was waiting for the moment and she too happily engulfs in his arms hugging the kids close. Everyone happily stay in the hug, saving the moment in their hearts forever!

After a long time, they come out of the hug and look at their family smiling happily.

Raman- My not so little family, I promise you all today that whatever happens I'll not let this family fall apart until I'm alive!

Ishita(hits his arm)- RAMAN!

Raman- Ouch! Ok sorry!

All of them giggle at this and they hug again happily contented. After a few moments they break the hug.

Ruhi- Ishu, why don't you show Pihu our house?

Ishaan- Oh yes! Come on didi!

Pihu- Yaay Ok!

They run inside hand in hand happily which makes them smile.

Ishita- What happened Ruhi?

Ruhi- There are many things to be cleared which they need not hear!

They look at her confused. She glares at Raman.

Ruhi- Papa! WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO ISHIMA?

Ishita- Rooh! It's all over now. Let's all forget this and stay happy as everything is sorted now.

Ruhi- NO ISHIMA! PAPA I NEED AN ANSWER!

She folds her arms.

Raman- Rooh! I know it was my fault that night.. I know I've committed..

She starts giggling suddenly making everyone confused.

Ruhi- Papa sorry I was just playing a prank.

She hugs him laughing where he hugs her back but doesn't smile which Ishita and Adi don't miss noticing.

Ruhi- But Papa on serious note, never do that again!

She breaks the hug and he holds her hands.

Raman- I promise never!

She smiles and all of them smile now. Adi shakes her head gently.

Adi- You're the same Ruhi-chuhi still! Only grown in size and nothing else!

Ruhi(hits his hand)- Bhai!

They giggle and happily hug each other. They come forward and pull Ishra too into the hug, who were happily watching them tease each other after years. Finally they share a ISHRARUDI hug! The void in their lives was filled. What more could they ask for?

Precap:

Raman- Ishita why only after you've found Ruhi, you wanted to return?

She looks up but he turns his face away.

Ishita(sobs)- Ramann..
