Recap: IshRan eye lock - Priya's conspiracy against Isha - Priya is slapped

Narrator's POV

Priya opened her eyes to look at the most angriest face she has ever see. Through the tears in her eyes she saw Veena standing there fuming.

"How dare you speak against my Ishudi? I was just waiting to see how far you would go but you have crossed all your limits" Veena screamed in her highest volume shaking the entire house.

Isha froze holding Sharan's hands while Sharan was equally shocked. Both Durga and Varna rushed there hearing Veena's screams and Varna immediately hugged Isha.

"What did you say? That she is just my sister-in-law? Do you know what she is? She is our mother. Don't you have any shame to speak like that? It is not Ishudi who is acting in front of us, it is you, you devil...." Veena raised her hand again but Sharan stopped her.

"Angel stop this, you have already given her what she deserves" he said.

Veena moved towards Isha, "Are you hurt Ishudi? I am really sorry. I just wanted to teach this devil a lesson. I did all this...." Before completing her words Isha hugged Veena.

"What is this Veena? It was me who slapped you then why are you apologizing? It's okay. You both are my angels and you can hurt me as much as you want" Isha said hugging twin sisters and Durga and Sharan looked at them with tears in their eyes.

"I am really sorry Ishudi and I will not spare anyone for saying anything against my Ishudi, no matter whoever it is..." Veena said and Ishu kissed her forehead. Sharan was happy witnessing their bond.

Irritated by all this Priya started to move away from there but Sharan held her.

"Where are you escaping?" Sharan spoke to Priya while she looked at him with a confused face.

"Apologize to Isha first" he spoke in a calm voice but the anger in it was very evident.

"Sharan, what is happening? Why are you doing this?" Durga asked him shocked.

"You didn't hear what she spoke about my wife dad" Sharan replied while Veena filled him in about everything that had happened.

"Priya you have crossed your limits. How dare you say such cheap things about my daughter? I am feeling shameful for allowing you to stay here" Durga spoke.

Priya looked at the angry faces of the Sharma family, all against her and quickly left the room apologizing to Isha. Sharan felt proud of his wife and sisters seeing them hugging each other.

Sharan's POV

I was pacing around the room trying to calm my anger down when Ishu entered the room and locked the door.

"What happened to my Mr. Rude? Seems like you are boiling with rage" she spoke holding my hands.

"How dare tht Priya use such cheap words on you? I won't leave her. I only controlled myself because dad was there" I spoke in anger.

"Hey, it's all over. Leave it" she consoled me.

"No, she went overboard today and I will not forgive her. She scolded you for no reason. What right does she have to scold you?" I continued to shout.

"So what? You scolded me a lot of times too" she said the words which doubled my anger.

I pinned her to the wall holding her throat softly so as to not hurt her.

"How dare you compare her with me? I can scold you whenever I want but I will not tolerate it if anybody else speaks even a word against you because you are mine and mine alone. Do you understand?" I spoke stressing each and every word.

Hearing my words a bright smile came onto her face and I removed my hands.

"What did you say?" she asked me.

"Nothing" I replied.

Her face fell.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing" she replied.

"I am possessive for you, that's true and it is because you are the one who changed me. You are the one who changed this house into a home. You are the one who is the reason behind my angels' happiness. Without you, me and this family are nothing" I spoke and she started to cry.

"Ishu, stop crying. I can't bear your tears" I wiped her tears.

"Sharan, I did not feel sad hearing Priya's words because all of your support was there. Don't worry thinking about that, it is a closed chapter" she said.

"Then stop crying or else I will become angrier with Priya for making you cry" I said and she stopped crying.

"Now smile" I said and she smiled making my happy.

I pulled her to me and just when I was about to kiss her there was a knock on the door. The door opened to reveal Varna.

"What is this angel? You are not completely fine yet and need to take rest. Why are you roaming here and there?" Isha asked completely serious. I looked at my cute wife who is scolding my sister.

"Ishudi, I am perfectly alright now" Varna spoke.

"Did you take your medicine?" Isha asked her and she looked at me with a pleading face. I shook my head indicating that I am helpless as well.

"Ishudi, I forgot. Sorry" Varna held her ears.

"This is not fair. Everyone needs my help to do everything. Come let me give you your medicine" Isha said walking towards Varna.

"Relax Isha. Why are you so tensed? She is a kid, right?" I supported Varna and Isha glared at me. I understood my mistake. I better support my wife or else she will kill me.

"Whatever your Ishudi said is correct. You shouldn't forget about your medicine. It is about your health, right?" I said looking at Isha.

"Stop your over action Sharan and you" she looked at Varna, "come with me, let me give you your medicine" she held Varna's hand.

"Actually I came here to inform that dad is calling you both. I will take my medicine myself. You both go and meet him, I will meet you there" Varna said.

"No, you will forget again. I know you well, come I will give you and then meet Appa. Okay Sharan?" she looked at me and I nodded.

In the hall

Narrator's POV

Sharan, Isha and Varna walked into the hall where Veena and Durga were already present.

"Why did you call us dad? Something wrong?" Sharan enquired.

"Nothing son, I wanted to give a gift to my Ishu" Durga replied.

Sharan and Isha looked confused at Durga's words.

"What gift? What is it's need appa?" Isha asked.

"It's a special gift and only you deserve it" Durga spoke confusing everyone.

"Dad you are creating so much suspense and we are getting tensed. What is the gift that you are going to give to Ishudi?" Veena asked.

"Come here Ishu, no more suspense" Durga spoke with a laugh. Isha looked at Sharan who nodded his head.

"Give your hand" Durga asked Isha for her hand and placed something on it. Isha was shocked looking at it. Sharan, Veena and Varna smiled in happiness.

"What is this appa? These keys...I don't understand anything" she spoke looking at the bunch of keys in her hand.

"Ishudi, Dad is giving the responsibility of the entire house in the correct hands" Veena explained hugging Isha. Varna nodded and joined the hug while Sharan smiled too.

"What are you both saying?" Isha asked confused.

"These are the keys of Sharma Bhavan. You should have these from today on and you should take care of each and everything in this house. You are our guardian angel" Durga spoke and Isha burst into tears while Veena and Varna consoled her.

"You have the right Isha. You are my son's wife and you should be the one to keep it. I believe you completely my daughter. You can take any decision for this house. You are the queen of this house" he said and hugged her.

"So, I am the king right?" Sharan asked and everybody laughed.

"What about us?" Varna asked.

"You both are our angels" Isha replied. The family shared a moment of joy while Priya watched all this from her room.

At night

Sharan's POV

We had our dinner and I went to angels' room to check whether they slept or not, only to find Isha and Veena running behind Varna.

"Catch her Sharan" Isha said and I stopped Varna.

"What is this? I think three kids are playing here" I spoke.

"Sharan, your sister is not taking her medicine then what else can we do?" Isha asked me placing her hands on her hips.

"Bhaiyya we have been trying for almost half an hour but she isn't taking it. We are tired" Veena complained.

"If you are so interested then you drink it. I can't" Varna said looking at Veena.

"What is this angel. It is for your health. Please understand" I said.

"This medicine tastes so bad, I think I will vomit after drinking it" Varna complained.

"Hear what she is saying? You try now" Isha said.

"Please Varna drink it. See how tired your Ishudi is. She has been running behind you taking care of your health since yesterday. Please drink it" I said and Isha looked at me surprised.

"Okay, I will drink it but only for my Ishudi" Varna agreed.

"No, Ishudi is mine only" Veena yelled and rushed towards Isha while Varna ran behind her.

"You both will kill me with your love one day" Isha said hugging them and I felt jealous seeing them together.

"Now take your medicine or else Ishudi will not talk to you anymore" I said and Isha gave it to her. After she had her medicine I called Isha to sleep but she told me that she will join me after they slept.

"Good night angels" I greeted them.

"Good night, Mr. Rude" they chorused together while I glared at a smiling Isha and left the room.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ishana's POV

I entered our room only to find it empty. I peeped into the balcony only to find Sharan thinking something deeply.

"Why didn't you sleep till now? Were you waiting for me? Sorry Sharan" I walked to him.

"It's okay" he replied.

"What are you thinking? Is something wrong?" I asked.

"Nothing" he lied.

"Don't lie. Tell me what is disturbing you. You know, I am always with you" I assured and he looked at me surprised.

"I am not hiding anything from you Isha. Okay, I will tell you" he relented.

"I was just thinking about Priya. It will be stupid to allow her to stay here anymore. She can't adjust with us" he said.

"Sharan she has no problem with you, only with me" I said.

"I know that but I don't know why she sees you as an enemy. You are so good to her, then why..." he trailed off and I smiled at my husband's innocence.

"I have a solution" he continued, "let her shift to a hostel. That way she can still work in our company with no one to question her freedom. She will be happy there" he spoke and I stopped.

"What are you saying Sharan? Just think of Shekhar uncle who left her here believing us. What will he think if he gets to know that his daughter is staying at a hostel? Think like a father. We have some responsibility here Sharan" I spoke.

"You and your stupid responsibility! I cannot tolerate her anymore. All that she did? She is using you because of your innocence. Why are you behaving like you don't know anything?" he asked me.

"I know everything Sharan but we should understand her too Sharan. She was bought up in a foreign country so her behaviour and life style will definitely differ from ours" I said.

"Isha, don't support her anymore" he screamed and I became sad.

"God! Look at this girl! Sorry, listen I am really sorry" he said cupping my face.

"Will you answer a question?" I asked.

"Of course" he replied.

"Did you think of shifting me to a hostel when I came here?" I asked.

"Unfortunately yes. Sorry Isha but it was not because you are like Priya but at that time I wanted my privacy so that no one would interfere in my family" he said and I couldn't help but feel sad.

"Hey Isha but today I really believe that you are the heart of this family without whom we can't live" he said making me happy.

"If you hadn't come into my life then I would've never allowed Priya to stay here because I used to hate all women. You are the one who taught me to respect women" he said making me feel proud.

"Do you believe me Sharan?" I asked and he nodded.

"Of course, more than anyone in this world" he replied cupping my face.

"Then please, I will manage her. Don't try to shift her from here" I said.

"But Isha..." he trailed off understanding that I have made up my mind. He looked straight into my eyes.

"Leave her responsibility to me, I will take care" I assured him and he nodded.

"Fine, let's sleep" he said laying down on the bed.

I put my head on his chest and he wrapped his arms around me. We both slept in each other's embrace. A good bye to another night.
