My Goddess

13.

AUTHOR'S POV

As the car ride went on, they both spoke about themselves, eachother's likes, dislikes, hobbies, and..

"seeta what's you plan after this?"
agastya asked when his turn came after her to ask question.

his question made seeta confused and frown

"means?"
she asked giving her full attention to him.

"like what was your plan after this marriage? i heard from dad that you stopped your studies after 12th. may i know why? please answer only if you are comfortable."
he said caressing her hand to comfort her because she looked disturbed hearing his question

"i..i 'she took deep breath' i always had interest in sewing and making designs on clothes and i want to do degree in same but as i completed my twelth amma didn't allow me to study further because after one week of my 12th results appa died and i don't want to pressurize amma more so i agreed to her that she don't want me to study further and i started looking after my sister and house. and i am happy to be like that now"
she completed saying and wiped the lone tear that escaped from her eyes.

Agastya noticed it and asked further

" so do you want to continue studying now?"
He asked with a hope that she will say yes because he want her to pursue her dreams

Seeta let out a small sad chuckle and said

"No nga now i have only one dream that is to look after you, our family, and to keep you happy that's all"
she said with a smile on her face.

Agastya smiled at her thoughts but still he is not convinced

"But seeta i will be happy with you doing nothing because your presence makes me happy. i don't know why but it does. don't keep that as your goal. i genuinely want you to pursue your dream. will you?"
he asked her. 

Tears welled up in her eyes hearing him. she taught he won't like her to study more because in her village womens don't study after marriage. It considered as a disrespect to the family but hearing him there rises a hope that she buried deep inside her after her father's death. but her age?

"but in this age...."

"seeta. baby say yes or no. i will manage everything"
he said without letting her complete.

'baby' that word made her blush but she recovered quickly and replied him

"yes nga. i want to study further"
she said wiping her tears from her face.

Bright smile came on his face hearing her 

"that's it baby. be ready to pursue your dream seeta. i will manage everything. trust me"
he assured her squeezing her hand and took a turn to take her to his favourite place.

" i do"
she said, he frowned, seeing him she smiled and said

"i said i trust you"

"thank you baby. i promise i will never break your trust"
he said amking her blush again.

He smirked at her red cheeks and continued driving.

Soon they reached and he parked the car under the tree there and got down and came to seets's side and opened her door and gave her a hand to get down. she took it happily and got down.

"ennaga where are we?"
she asked looking around like scared kid beacuse it as an isolated area near forest.

"shh baby. stay silent otherwise animals will here"
he said seriously, hearing him her hold tightened around his arms making him smile at her teasingly
