Jay
Yesterday night had been quite interesting. I got to meet two people who were from Jaanu's ex husband's family. I still don't understand why these other family members have this kind of resentment towards this couple, Lakshman and Akhila.
I also didn't understand who is this Nikhil. Why did those two of them mention about the boy.
A lot of such questions linger in my mind as I walk outside my room .
I come and stand in the balcony. I feel the cool breeze hit my face and slowly lift my supposedly long hair.
I see Jayshree sitting on a bench below. I decide to go and give her company as she looked lonely.
I climb down the stairs and get into the cool grass and walk towards the bench. She looks extremely lost in her own world. I sit next to her on that rusty metal bench. She looks up at me and smiles
' That isn't a proper smile' I chime in
' I know' she replies
' I'm also in some sort of confusion ? ' I say
' Are you?' she replies
' what are you worried about ? ' I ask
' Things ' she replies nonchalantly
' What sort of things? Like your huge crush on your mama? '
She suddenly turns towards me all flustered and red but then goes back into her old position and says dryly
' I'm making it quite obvious , ain't I ? He is just too oblivious ' she sighs
' And you are too Dense too' I say
' Huh? ' she says
' More on that later , first I need some clarifications about a few things '
' About? '
' Nikhil' I say and I see her face go paler than pale
' My nephew ' she says in a barely audible voice.
' Oh Jaanu's son? The kid who ...' I trailed off
I never knew the name of the child nevertheless. I sense that she is getting extremely uncomfortable talking about him. I still have my doubts regarding the same. I'll have to figure out about that in a different way.
I get up and is irritated by my friend Rishi's call.
He screams at me to reach his room for an important discussion. I wonder what gets into the mind of this freak
I sigh and go to his room
He is seated in the edge of his bed and furiously typing something in his phone
' Dey' I call
He turns and comes next to me and says
' Dude , this is really important ' he says with an exasperated voice
' Ok ' I say
' You see there is this patient i have been treating for a while , he is an ex convict and has a lot of issues relating to drug addiction and stuff' he says
' Yeah what about that is important, you deal with these kind of people on a regular basis' I say
' Not that, this guy's mother caught him venturing into those dark webs again for drug , and I asked her to send the code in order to check it . It was all fine until when I saw someone's name in the previous mafia list who are on a hiatus . It was Ramachandra ' he breathed
' What The Fuck!!' I exclaimed
' Yes , your fiance's ex husband , this is why I always had my doubts regarding a lot of things'
I get into a shock and sit on the bed
