Sweethearts- The RAVYA Tale

5. Is everything fine !?

RAM'S POV :

Everything is blank now. I repeat EVERYTHING. How can this happen? I mean like HOWW!!!???? Even imagining the pain my Vaish Mumma and her family went through gives me chill. What did she even do to take all these sufferings. My Raj uncle, I had just misunderstood him these many days instead of thanking and being grateful to him for the deeds he have done. I'm sorry Raj uncle, and I am really very sorry Vaish Mumma. I'll make sure everything is fine. I'll make sure you'll again see and feel that happiness which you have missed these many days. Trust me EVERYTHING will be fine. Soon both the families will be re-united. Its my promise.

AUTHOR'S POV :

It seemed like Abhiram was feeling restless until he saw HIS VAISH MUMMA again. When Meera said everything to him, he felt ashamed of his whole family, he felt ashamed of himself. He was blaming himself for not being for His Vaish Mumma when she needed atleast any one of them the most. After learning the truth, he came back to Prem Mahal and went upstairs directly to his room. Within few minutes, he came back after taking shower and saw his brother and bestfriend already waiting for him in his bedroom.

"We should leave now. Its already late." Abhiram stated. Both the men who were present there lifted their eyebrows.

"But bhaiya, I can do it. I'll go there by myself and I'll bring Vaishu ma here. There's no need for you to come there." Varun said.

"I know you can do it Varun. But its my duty to make sure Vaish Mumma won't get hurt in the process. She have completely misunderstood everything now. She thinks that all of us hate her. She doesn't know the fact that everyone are burning down themselves for what they did to her. Ofcourse Papa (Mahesh) did it all for her good sake. But she is not aware of that. As far as I know, Vaish Mumma would not trust any of us right now. I don't want her to take any stress." Abhiram said and Varun nodded in understanding.

Abhiram looked at Suhas " Suhas, you look after the business. I don't know how much time it would take exactly." Suhas nodded and continued, " Abhi I have asked Sharan (one of their trust worthy man) to send you the complete information about Vaishnavi aunty and her complete family" Abhiram just hummed and went down stairs followed by both of them. Meera had come home along with Swathi as both of them had not eaten anything since morning.

When both the ladies saw Abhiram, Varun and Suhas coming downstairs, "Abhi, Abhi..... Beta even you are going!?" Meera asked as she ran towards them with fater phase. Abhiram held his mom's shoulders "Ma calm down. 1st eat something."  Then Varun  looked at his chote Amma, Swati , "Chote ma, you used to say that you and Vaishu ma were bestfriends right. Why don't you once call her and say about dad's condition to her now. It would become easy to us to bring her back." Abhiram looked at Varun and then towards his chote ma, "Yes ma, but don't say her about dad's wish, just inform her about his health condition." Abhiram said and everyone nodded.

"But I don't know whether she'll pick my call or no Abhi. Its literally been around 17 years that I had called her or I spoke to her. Do you really think she'll answer my call. Infact she doesn't even deserve a friend like me. Who left her when she had no one properly by her side." Saying this Swati burst out crying. Abhiram, who is a typical family man. Who is a gentleman for his family immediately went and side hugged his chote ma,"Shh.... Don't cry chote ma. It was not your fault either. It was just the fate that played its role so cruelly. And about Vaish mumma, I don't think so that she will ignore your call that too when its like you are calling her after so many years . Once give it a try chote ma." Swati now relaxed and took out her phone to call her best friend VAISHNAVI.

Here, Vaishnavi who was speaking to Anitha, heard her phone ringing. "Anita, please pass my phone na." After seeing the number, Vaishnavi was blank. "This number. After 17 years....." Her eyes became teary.
