Episode 7 I said, More than I know myself you know me better; you tell me mom will I be able to handle this? Mom said, I dont know, but my advice for you is to stay calm and make her feel comfortable with you. Make her trust you and love you. Love cures and pacifies. You will have to be patient till that. Itll take time for her to develop confidence in you. Love is not the relationship of two bodies. Its the bonding between the hearts & minds of two individuals that lasts forever. If you really love her as much as you portray, youve got to give her some time. Im really concerned Arjun, she is not mentally sound right now and may not give in to your urge for physical intimacy. This might frustrate you to the extent of giving up your relationship leading to divorce or separation. She attempted suicide because she didnt like her parents divorce and just imagine her mental agony if she has to sail in the same boat. Take time, think and tell me. Are you gonna take her as your wife or are you gonna give up your love for the pleasure of physical relationship? Mom paused for a moment and continued, If you are going for the first choice Ill talk to dad and at the right time we will talk to her mother or father I said, Mom, there is no need to think I have made up my mind, Its now I love her more. I wanna go for the first option. I wanna take her as my wife, I know her heart is bruised; I wanna heal her hurting and relive her from her pains. Its no fault of hers mom. I dont know if she will ever open up or mingle with anyone like she did with us and vice versa if others would be able to understand her pain and grief or not. I want to be by her side always mom Mom said, Dont be hasty in deciding. Its easy to say but practically its difficult. As a mother I wanna see my grandchildren. When I know the chances are very less, how do you think Ill accept to it? I said, Mom, Its not a decision in haste. Ill stand firm and stick on to it come what may. To fulfill your wish we can adopt children and if you want grandchildren in your genes, technology has advanced to great extent in the medical field. I dont wanna quit her for a silly reason mom Mom said, Good, I appreciate your decision but time alone will reveal the zeal of your love. All that we discussed should be between you and me. You should never discuss this with anyone especially Nethra and embarrass her at any point of time in your life I said, I swear, Ill not discuss this with anyone Mom said, Well talk about it later. Dont trouble her asking anything. Okay saying this she walked to the door and before she could leave, naughtily smiling she said, I have never come across such a worst and wild proposal ever in my life After the discussion I was thinking about it and I felt pity for her. I decided, I should provide her a good life and replenish all the happiness and love that she lost all these years. I went Adithis room to see her. Adithi and Nethra were playing chess. I pulled up a chair and sat next to Adithi and said, Hi Nethra, how are you feeling? She said, Better I said, Please dont ever try to do like this again what so ever. I know youre grieving and your heart is bleeding but death is not a solution for anything. I just thought what if your attempt had succeeded. The thought of losing you made me wild and thats why I behaved badly. I didnt mean to hurt you but I meant what I said. Im very sorry if it had hurt you in anyway She didnt say anything but silence. I asked, Shall we go out for a drive and get some fresh air? Adithi said, Okay, lets go to ice cream parlor I need triple sundae. What do you want Nethra? I said, Let me check with mom if I can take you out and if you can have ice creams I asked my mom and she said, Okay do not buy Nethra a sundae but maybe a scoop if she can take it. Dont stay out for a long time. Come back soon Adithi, Nethra and I went to the nearby park and were watching the people around, the children playing etc. A swing was free and Adithi said, I wanna swing and ran to the swing. Nethra and I were sitting in a bench and she asked, Can you do me a favor please? I asked, What is it? She said, I wanna see Mithra, can you take me to her? She is studying 9th standard in St. Ebenezer School, Yelagiri I said, Let me check with mom and if your health cooperates we shall go this weekend I checked with my mom and dad during dinner. Dad said, Let us all go and visit Mithra this week end. Anyway we were planning for a family outing; lets combine it together #sunmoon
