Get the Ishika mug.Ishika. Ishika Beautiful, sweet, nice,generous, amazing, and talented girl who's always minding her own business. She pretends not to care about what others say when deep inside she does. She's very bad at hiding her emotions. She easily gets angry and sometimes crying is the way she shows her anger. However she brings happiness everywhere she goes and knows how to make people feel better. She's the kind of friend that will never let you down and will always be there for you throug your good and bad times. Ishika are the kindess and most generous person you will meet. If you have a Ishika in your life then be grateful for that.
