Ennai Yetrukol Muzhuvathum

Chapter 16

Early Morning 4:30

In wedding hall,

Amala and prakash sat in the bed looking down and jaanvi was standing there leaning on the wall looking down keeping her index and thumb finger on her nose bridge acting like worried for her sister who is missing.

Amala- enga pona iva.. aiyoo avanga kita enna solrathu..

The people in the room were quiet.

"Enna da intha pulla kudumba maanathaiye vaangita"

"Athana.. enna ka ithu.. evlo nalla valathu aalu aakuna ava appa amma vaiye thala guniya vechuta"

Two of her aunts just pour the oil in the fire that worked well.

Prakash stood up in a force and corrected his coat clearing his throat.

Prakash- inga yaarukume itha pathi pesa urimai illa..

"Enna thambi ipdi sollit-"

Prakash- yaarukumey..

He warned and went out of the room to see krish and sandra but frowned when he saw a sweaty andrew in his tee and sweatpants coming from outside.

Andrew was looking around checking if anyone saw him, while coming in, then turned to his front and stood there in shock to see prakash standing with a frowned brows before him in a distance.

He gulped and moved forward thinking what to say if he question something.

Prakash- from where are you coming andrew?

Andrew- uhmm.. uncle.. i went for wal..walking.. yes walking..

Prakash nodded still not convinced. Then he went to Andrew's parents room while he sighed in relief and went to his room silently.

Sandra- what are you saying prakash?

Prakash- even we are not aware of it.. we also knew just now..

Krish- your answer isn't justifiable prakash.. she is your daughter how come she is not present here when she was at yesterday night?

Prakash just stood there with his head hung low. Amala had tears in his eyes seeing him like this.

Prakash- I'm sorry for it krish..

Krish- no prakash.. your sorry can't bring us our reputation..

Prakash- even ours too but i can't do anything krish..

Sandra- you can..

The men frowned at her,

Sandra- get your first daughter to marry our son.

She dropped the bomb just like that. Jaanvi and mano who stood there rooted and shocked not expecting the unexpected.

Sandra- but this time it's not about getting consent or we don't want your acceptance or rejection.. what i said is to be happened.. this is the only way to not to get our reputation destroyed. Krish?

Krish- I'm accepting what she said.. prakash?

Prakash looked at jaanvi and mano then at his wife who is nodding her head at him to accept it. He too nodded and was about to say something but,

Andrew- mom? Dad? What's happening here?

He asked as if he didn't knew anything. Sandra came forward and took his palm in hers,

Sandra- you are going to marry jaanvi..

Andrew- mom..

He shouted then looked at his dad who nodded and then at prakash amala then at jaanvi who shook her head slowly though she know he is not gonna accept it.
