UNITED AGAIN BY LOVE.

1.

Watching the waves, with legs immersed in the sand, lone mind, teardrop gliding from my left eye. all I did was to look at the beauty in front of me with HOPE.

I reached home only to be welcomed by unknown faces. I mustered up a fake smile to show them, so did they. I was dragged by my mom to my room.

where have you been for so long, Sri? my mom asked as if I didn't give her prior information.

Mom didn't I tell you about going to beach.

yes but what took you so long?

mom! I gave her an annoyed look.

alright. wear a beautiful outfit and greet our guest.

firstly, who are they? and why should I look good to them. I asked mom dubiously.

They're here to see you. They wanted you to get married to their son. They're your father's friends and......

stop right there mom. I told you already that I wanna do MBA and also you didn't tell me anything about groom hunt? I ask mom with utmost anger and disappointment.

we know what is good for you. perhaps, we allowed you to study MBA. It's just a formal meet, you'll get married only after you complete your studies. Mom replies with ease.

OH! really. it was you who didn't allow me to go to any job and told me to be your aid, also to take care of my little brother you gave birth to . Although, it was my choice to devote an year to you and the little one. You always played with my emotions. Yet, I put my heart and soul to take care him, mom. I can't believe that i'm explaining all this to you. You've become your husband's devotee. you fail to understand others. I vent out the agony I've been dealing with for a long time.

I've no time for your nonsense.Get dressed, come down and behave as i said.Mom went down after glaring me one last time.

I smile while the tears flow down the cheeks. I quickly get dressed and did a minimal makeup. As i descend down, mom asks me to serve the tea to the guests. I inhaled and released the breathe.

I joined my hands and said, I'm SRI NILA. I beg your pardon, I was just informed that you are here for asking my hand but I don't wanna get married any time sooner. I wanna be financially independent and live the life I've always dreamt. I apologise from bottom of my heart, please make yourself comfortable.

I gave a smile to the groom and to his parents. Also, I smirk at my mom and head back to my room. I could hear mom calling but who am I, I Held my head high and walked away. I locked my room and hit the bed. Sleep is what i needed the most right now.

Around 9 o'clock, I woke up to the continuous knock on the door. I opened and saw my mom standing at the door with my little brother on her hip and a plate filled with food. She came in and fed me the dinner.

why are you not understanding us, sri? said mom.

Mom please not again. we've had enough talk about this. I'm all set to live to chennai tomorrow.

why tomorrow? your class starts from day after tomorrow right.

yes mom. i just wanna ensure if everything is okay.

mom sighed. do whatever you want. did you pack your bags.

i would be doing now.

Mom nodded her head and began to leave. she stopped and said sri kutty?

i looked up and she continued,I hope our friendship remains the same.

I just smiled, then she left.

No mom. our friendship ruined the moment you failed to trust me. Anyways, Lets pack for my NEW JOURNEY.
