Kaadhalai Solle Mudiyaadha?

Part 6

Varsha : Gautham, ithu yaaru? (Varsha asked while pointing at the photo frames in the wall)

Gautham walked towards Varsha with a cup of coffee in his hand.

Gautham sighed and remained silent.

Varsha : Is she your friend?

Gautham hummed. His eyes quickly filled with tears. He was trying his best not to let them down.

Varsha looked at Gautham since he was too quiet.

Varsha : Gautham, ethacho thappa kettutena?

The tears left Gautham's eye eventhough he tried so hard to fight it. He was devastated. Varsha asking about that girl in the picture was like a stab in the heart to Gautham.

He fell to the ground and started crying his heart out. The numbness was too much. All this years, he supressed his feelings to himself not knowing how people would react. He always got drunk at night to ease the pain, ruining himself.

He didnt really notice those picture frames for awhile since he was busy with the wedding preparations and he was also always trying not to look at it. He didnt even know why he looked at the picture when Varsha asked.

_______________________________________

Varsha was totally puzzled. Seeing him so broken woke up so many things in her heart. She sat with him on the floor. Pulling him closer to her while caressing his hair. She didnt know why he was like this. She just knew that she had to be there for him, no one could leave a person to break down like that.

Gautham : How did she even leave me?! (He shouted)

Varsha shushed him and whispered comforting things in his ears to atleast try to make him feel better.

_______________________________________

Suddenly, Gautham fainted in Varsha's arm.

Varsha tried spraying some water on his face, patting him, even slapping his face but nothing worked. She immediately called Jeeva for help.

_______________________________________

In a few minutes, Jeeva arrived at Gautham's mansion.

Jeeva was shocked to see Gautham on the floor.

Varsha : Mama! Avaru alunthute vilunthutaaru. Mayakkam theliyale! ( she said while panicking)

Jeeva quickly carried him and rushed to the hospital and contacted Amir and Varun. They decided not to tell his family members as they would get worried about his state.

In the hospital,

In front of his ward,

Jeeva : Enna aachu, Varsha?

Varsha sighed. She didnt know what happened. All she remembered was him crying.

Varsha : I just asked him who the girl in the photo frame was, Mama.

Amir : Which photo frame?

Varun : Macha, Abhi neneikiren.

Jeeva and Amir facepalmed themselves.

Varsha : Yaaru Abhi?

Amir : Engalode best friend. Mukkiyama Gautham ode best friend.

Varsha : Avunge inthe wedding shopping ku lam varave illeye?

Amir sighed. His face dropped.

Amir : She's...She's de..dea..dead.
