When It Rains

Mystery Man's POV
—————————
At last that day came. I waited so long for these days. Last two decades , other than revenge , nothing was in my mind. I wanted to destroy their lives as they did to me. I wanted to see them lose everything as I lost. I wanted to smash their dignity as they did to me. I have done a lot, still I am not satisfied. But the climax is near. I am so excited to see the defeated Asok's face. The Grand Son of Demon king Gopala Menon. This is my revenge to his whole family. I targeted each and every one in their family. And Asok is the last one. One more is left. But still it is a mystery !!! I know I can unfold that mystery too. This is what I am living for. Revenge!!! Just revenge !!!

I stood in front of the prison cell. Asok was laying down. I could see his weight loss. Sixty days gave drastic changes to the charming handsome Doctor Asok. Now he look like aged. Eyes were swollen. Still crying? I felt a breeze in my heart. You never know how much I cried. You never know once I too cried in the prison like you. Now its your turn.

I just gave a punch in prison cell's door. Asok slowly lifted the head. When he saw me, his eyes sparked first, then it filled with fear. He recognized me. I enjoyed it. Once I had frightened by them , Now the Menon family is frightening by me. The era totally changed. How couldn't I enjoy it?

" Hello, Dr. Asok, missing your lovely wife?" , I asked teasingly.

He jumped up from the floor and ran towards me. Through the cell door's grill , he captured my shirt's collar and shaken my body with his full power , and roared;

"Who are you? Why did you do this to me. I don't remember you. I don't know you. In my memory I never hurt anyone to revenge me like this. Tell me , what I did to you".

I laughed , "Oh, Asok, one question at a time please. How can I answer all these question in one breath. I promised you then, I will definitely come back to you to explain the reason. Here I am with explanation. You are correct. You never done anything against me. But your grand father and your father did. And you don't remember me is also believable. But dear friend , do you don't know me? That is not correct. We really know each other. We were childhood friends. This is not good. How can you forget this Sathyan?.

"Sathyan?"!!!

He looked at me with shock and asked.

I said, " The same Sathyan . Your grand father's loyal servant Narayanan's son. Do you know what happened to my family? What had done to my family by your Grand Father? Do you know how your father treated me? Do you know how your family framed and abandoned us?". I panted with angry.

" Grand Father... and My Father" he pouted , and laughed slowly and continued.

" so you are taking revenge on them. But my friend Sathyan, I still don't understand what is the role of me in your revenge story? Now I remember you. Your posture totally changed. It is more than twenty five years. If you are here to hurt me to take revenge on my grand father and my father, you are totally wrong. You too know, they abandoned me first. I ran away from them. I was scared of my Grand Father. Even if you kill me , they won't have any problem. I am already dead for them. I don't understand why are you destroying me for their faults?"

"Because you are their blood. Their heir. So you and your family are included in my list". He looked me blankly. I continued. "

"Your parents are scared of me. That's why they never came for you. Your parents always wanted you to come back. But they too were scared of your Grand father. And the legendary Gopala Menon is no more. I killed him with my own hand. But no evidence to prove it. Though he is dead , I am not going to stop this. Because I promised to my family that I will destroy everyone related to your grand father and your father".
