-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Dad... Mom...where are you both??" Karthik Raj, calling his parents as soon as he entered the living room.
"Kartii..." was the only word came from her mouth, her eyes filled with happy tears seeing her son after one year. Sudha came to him caressed his cheecks and kissed him on his forehead as she couldnt believe her eyes that her son is infront of her after a long time.
"Mom... please stop crying... I came home after 1 year from U.S and see what you are welcoming me with your tears."Karthik says in a fake anger.
"These are happy tears Karti..."says Sudha hugging her son.
"Please don't cry mom .. i cann't see your tears even though they are happy tears" says Karthik as he released himself from her hug , wiping her tears.
"Kartii... what a surprise... "says Sekhar entering the living room from his morning walk. Both mother and son turned their heads to see the face of the voice.
"Dad..."said Karthik hugging his father.
"you said you will be coming next week right??" asks Sekhar surprised with his son's early visit.
" i thought of giving you both a sudden surprise... that's how I am here now..." said Karthik smiling at his parents who are very happyly simling for his visit.
After a chit-chat with his parents Karthik headed to his room to take a shower.
The whole week Karthik was busy with his family and next week with his office meetings . Actually, Karthik visit to India is majorly for some important meetings but he thought he should give some quality time to his parents so he came to India a week before his scheduled time.
One night after finishing dinner Sekhar called Karthik to study room to talk to him privately but both were sitting silently.
"Karti... we want you to get married and settle in life..." said Sekhar breaking the silence.
"WHAT...?"
"Me and Sudha are eagerly waiting to see your marriage.. and we have a girl in our mind, she is very nice girl and ..."
"i am not ready for marriage dad.." said Karthik interrupting his father.
"when? when will you be ready Karthik... for the past one year onwards u have been saying that one sentence as an excuse. You have completed your studies, taking good care of our business and only one thing left in your life is marriage."
"but am sorry dad, i am not ready.." saying this Karthik left the room. Whenever Sekhar or Sudha comesup with marriage topic, he simply diverts the topic or walks out without listening to his parent's words completely.
Sudha who saw Karthik coming out of study room seriously understood the reason as she and Sekhar discussed to talk about his marriage personally rather than talking in phone while he is in US. Sighing, you will never be ready for marriage i have to think of a way to get u married thought Sudha.
Karthik was standing in his room near the window looking at the moon, he was lost in thoughts...
He is not the same Karthik Raj who was 3 years before, he is totally changed now there is no more jovial, naughty side of him. His fake smile is just a mask to hide his heartbreak and misery from his parents, as he is living just for the sake of his parents, but he couldn't fake smile 24*7 infront of his parents, so decided to be far from them though they were not happy with his decision, they agreed for their son's happiness. Saying an excuse of persuing MBA he shifted to U.S.A then after finishing his studies he extended his father's business in U.S.A but only Karthik know the real reason for his shift. He always kept himself busy with his studies and after studies he became workacholic .He visited India only twice in those 3 years. He has everything in his life loving parents,sucessful career,money,status except one"THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE ... Sirija... his Siri",not only his love but also his best friend who could make him go crazy with just her smile. The only one person whom he loved the most, with whom he wants to share his happiness, success and mostly the rest of his life.
