Gopal saw sampath waiting outside suresh room searching for someone. He went closer and noticed him sweating badly.

"What happened sampath?" Gopal asked. Sampath is not just arjun's best friend but he also works in same company. Just like his other friends. All the friends proved to be efficient especially mohit who is a workaholic.

"Nothing sir, I wanted to talk with suresh uncle about a personal matter" sampath said anxiously.

"Tell me sampath. I can also help you" gopal assured.

"Actually....."

"He wants a girl's address suresh uncle has" danush came in rescue. He had a teasing smile which convinced gopal.

"He went to home. Jyothi called him as his relatives are in his home" gopal said.

"Stop thinking about girls sampath. Go and work man. We should be sincere and dedicated to this company" danush teased his friend.

"Oh really? Then why do you call disha every hour? Where did this sincerity and dedication gone?" Sampath asked pulling his friend away.

"Sampu, I call her when I take break!" Danush defended.

"How many times did I tell you not to call me Sampu!" Sampath smacked danush and they left the corridor fighting. Gopal smiled at them and went to suresh room.

After an hour he came out and left the office. Gopal drived to his house. When he reached his home he noticed his oddly silent house. It is generally silent but today it is eerily silent.

We walked in and sat on the sofa. He called padma but she did not come. Thinking she went out to bring something from shop, He called his wife. But got no response.

"Rupa?"

"Rupa?"

He thought for a while and called his wife again. He got response from her.

"Vinamra?"

"Yes gopi?"

His possessed wife came down. She was wearing a white saree and she wore makeup, flowers in braid. Her eyes are shining brightly.

"I'm thirsty" gopal said with a smile.

"I will get the water" Vinamra said and ran to the kitchen. Gopal followed her.

"Why are you here hubby? You should have taken rest on the sofa" Vinamra said handing the water glass to him.

"I was wondering where the servants have gone"

"I have sent them to their homes"

"Why?"

"It's our anniversary today. I thought we have a family time. Those servants will disturb us" vinamra said in distaste. Gopal laughed.

"Where is our daughter?"

"She's sleeping. Samrat was whining to sleep with his elder sister"

"He loves her"

"He's just like me!" Vinamra said with happy smile.

"I will go and see them once" gopal said.

"I will take you there"

Vinamra took her husband to the old room of samyuktha. Samyuktha was screaming as she saw her father. She was tied to the bed with a cloth in her mouth. Her dead baby brother was next to her. It was dried up but it still had a strange smell which is horrible.

Gopal sat next to samyuktha and caressed her head. His calm demeanor surprised her. He then looked at baby boy next to samyuktha. He had a scared expression but it changed quickly when vinamra took the body and behaved as if the boy is alive.
