Agathiyan's POV
"Vetri, what is the estimated time required to resolve this case? You have been provided with the team you requested and ample time to collect substantial evidence. With election duties starting next month, a failure to secure proof against him will necessitate dropping the case, allowing him to escape without difficulty. I am shielding you from the political pressure exerted from above, as he is associated with the ruling party. Once the election date is declared, he could dismiss it as a tactic by the opposition, leaving us powerless.
And that's not the outcome I expected when I entrusted this case to you, and you are well aware of that.
I will be on leave for two weeks...if you want even more force take them but this case should be closed when I come I don't care what you will do.....I want him in the police custody when I come back....Report to me daily on the same matters during my absence. Do not hesitate to call me if necessary. ASP Giridharan will be in charge in my stead until I return, and I have ensured that he will not disturb you all. "
I addressed ACP Vetrivel and his team, who were standing before me in my cabin. They nodded, and I noticed Vetri's frown, I was aware of his conflict with the ASP. Nonetheless, as his mentor, I cannot complain, he has indeed inherited certain traits from me...I shook my head in disbelief.
"Avoid engaging in an ego clash with him. I am acquainted with both of you and do not wish to resolve any issues that may arise, distracting me from other tasks. Remember, the freedom I granted you comes with the responsibility that I must answer for your mistakes. Please do not tarnish my reputation in the department. if you wish to indulge, do so anonymously.
And make sure not to leave any evidence behind "
I said the last sentence seriously that made them chuckle a little
"That's all, Everyone out of my cabin NOW! "
"YES SIR"
They all said in unison and saluted before leaving my cabin
"Vetri "
"Sir"
"You stay back"
Everyone left leaving both of us.....I narrowed my eyes at him and eyed him to sit....He obeyed
"If I am not wrong, Your wife Sathya was a Lawyer, isn't she?"
"Yes sir"
He said I nodded my head
"Then please don't employ that shitty idea you gave me in your life unless you want divorce from her and this time for real"
"SIR"
He stressed and was visibly shocked.......and it hit him he scratched his nape and smiled sheepishly
"Is it that bad sir?"
"A disaster to be precise "
"Oh......Is Ma'am is angry now?"
hearing his stupid question I came forward Grabbing his hand, I twisted it behind his back. He winced in pain and quickly apologized..
"ohhhh awwww Soooorrrryyyry sirrrr.....
But you can't blame me, sir. As my mentor, you're supposed to correct my blunders, not implement my ideas without verification, especially when it concerns personal life. You have more experience than me, sir—you already have two daughters, and I have none, still in the process of trying to have one. "
He said I twisted his hand more...
"OHHHH sorrry sirrr.....Please forgive me....sorrry..."
He pleaded.....rolling my eyes I let go of his hand he pressed his wrist.....I sat back on the chair...
"Yes, you're correct, I shouldn't have taken your idea into account, knowing it was flawed. However, it ultimately led to her releasing those pent-up emotions, so in that sense, it's alright."
"Is that mean it worked"
he asked me
"Hmm... It didn't produce the exact reaction I anticipated, but it ended up providing a solution to my problem. I was confused and fearful about where to start in resolving the issue between us... This idea proved effective."
"Wait....sir you actually want her to say no instead of agreeing for a baby.....You anticipated a fight?"
He asked me with confusion, I just nodded my head
"I wanted her to say no and fight with me for taking decision for her without minding what she wanted........but that shifted to other way....she is not against having another baby....she said what she wanted if the baby born......what is all those which were bothering her.....even though she didn't expressed fully and just a part of it.....but I understood it and this baby topic helped me to begin with mending our relationship.....In that sense.....Your idea did worked"
"But, I thought the baby would solve the problem sir, and you accepted it...."
Vetri expressed his puzzlement, and I couldn't help but stand up and chuckle.
"That's why I am your Senior Vetri......
Baby don't solve any marital problems Vetri, I do know you married just because you want your own baby that's it nothing more......but marriage is not just about having babies and planning their life together........As you said I am more experienced than you and I know my wife more than anyone...
You'll be taking a break after this case, and I wouldn't want your wife to send fake divorce notices to the commissioner's office just to get a chance to see you Again"
I chuckled and patted his shoulder; he took a deep breath, nodded, saluted me, and then took his leave.
I sighed, picked up my phone, and saw my Thulir and my beloved daughters smiling at me from the wallpaper.
"I know I did made mistakes but how can you think I can survive without you di Theeni.....I would accept if you choose to punish me fight with me but not accepting everything to be the best wife or mother..........That's not my Theeni......she never compromise when it comes to my attention......But you do now.....because you no more my Theeni alone.......
May be I forgot that and you did forgot yourself......If I am the reason behind it I am responsible to bring you back to me............
May be that's why I stopped calling you as MY THEENI"
