THE RICH DOCTOR VS THE WITCH DOCTOR

CHAPTER 44

"I have heard this some where", Mercina told Prashanth

"Heard what?"

"Priced Unicorn! this word, it strikes a chord, but i can't place it", She said that night when they were in bed

Prashanth was silent for a long time

"Messey I'm sorry if I have hurt you in anyway", he said

She got up and looked at him "Whats going on Mister?" she asked

"I can't get that image of Shruthi suffering from my mind. Though it was just a stimulation, she was undergoing the same pain she experienced years before. A pain however small had a deep impact", he said

"My God Midnight Revelation!" she laughed and kissed him "I love you", she said and hugged him and slept.

Prashanth couldn't sleep his mind was totally engaged. Neelima was at his house 4 hours before she died. He remembered seeing her storming out of the house after a heating argument with his parents.

He remembered it well for Neelima has never set foot at that house before, She would drop Rishi there and stay back at her house. When the news of the accident reached them his Dad looked devastated. Uru stood looking down for a long time went into her room.

Sk asked Prashanth to go to the spot immediately and that he would follow.
Later when he returned back the usually organised and clean room Of his mom was disheveled it looked like a tornado had struck.

Prashanth made up his mind he checked the time it was already 4am. He messaged his mom, left a note for Messey and started towards the farm.

***************

Half way to the farm near his favourite lotus pond Prashanth saw Urvashi waiting.

"Mom its not safe to be waiting here at this time"

"Is this the way to greet your mom", Uru asked

"Good morning Mom", Prashanth hugged her

"Good morning my dear, so whats the emergency?"

"Mom I... I want to ask, no tell you something"

"I'm all ears", she said enjoying the suns early little and the morning breeze

"Mercina has taken Em fort....the faulty", one he said with a gap and Urus face changed

"So has shruthi", he said but it looked like Uru already knew

"Ma I love you, I trust you,still there are times now a days that truth hurts ma."

"Prashanth stay away from all this", Uru warned him "Its for your good" she said

"Every turn i take it leads to you. Why are you doing this ma?"

"You know nothing Prashu go and live a happy life with Mercina, the cure is out there I just need to get my hands on it. Now that its for you I will give it to you", Uru said

"Then enlighten me if I don't know nothing"

"Truth is always dangerous", Uru said so stay away she warned again

"I know the truth you are trying to hide and I don't know why.."

"What do you mean?" She asked

"The priced Unicorn", Prashanth said and turned back to his car

Urvashi came running behind "Prashanth keep it with you, do not let it out,I have worked so hard all these years to save you, now you please don't spoil everything",she begged
