Epitome Of Love

4 | The Orphanage

The same Night in granny's room, Vaibhav had a long conversation with her.

" Granny, can't you please give a one chance to your decision" He pleaded weakly. He was drained out of questioning her and making her understand of his situation.

"The decision I have taken is right for you as well for the Shergill Empire" she completed the same line repeatedly with her every answer.

"Okay, and what about the girl I'm in love with" He asked again to confirm the final time.

She didn't answer to which he exclaimed.

Closing her eyes, taking deep breathe, she spatted," She would be useless as you. I firmly belive your choice would be worst. I don't want any english woman as my daughter in law."

"But..-" he was cutt off by her statement.

"No but ! Now just get out of my room. I'm getting bored by your rants and let me have some pretty sleep. Go and smash your head somewhere else , not here. "

"Grandma, I'm here for something serious. Since then I'm trying to convince you for something, but it looks you don't bother anymore what I likes or dislikes" He argued in hope of keeping this conversation more clear and get a better firm decision according to him. He usually don't like talking much but to his annoyance his grandma has actually tested his patience today.

"If you have something to talk intresting then open your pretty mouth. Secondly don't teach me what I bothered or not." Not giving much to his words she closed her eyes.

This means no more arguments anymore. No more conversations anymore. No more pleads anymore.

After having this long conversation, what the output was null. There is nothing which fell in his court. He was upset. He was furious. He didn't wanted this. For the second time he felt himself the weakest man. This is so unfair. He wasn't expecting this.

The silhouette in the dark is still visible. She once thought to re-think about her decision of getting him married with someone he don't love. She gave a thought , this time he shouldn't lose his lady love . It was the girl after his mother he says, he love but how can she trust on Shergill Empire. And , his grandson how come she would trust that ,the girl he has choosen will collect every pieces of his broken shelf. If she would have been done this, it could be clearly visible but alas he's the same arrogant man as before and here he says, according to him his relation is still alive since eight years of his life. Then why, why on earth she isn't able to change his perspective. Why she isn't able to heal him. Why?

Having no answer , she again got confirmed on her decision to be right. She clearly knows the girl he love is afraid of him at some point. If she is , then she isn't his lady love.

Love means pain which heals. Not giving any other thought to her brain she spoke," Switch off the corner light ,and close the door. Have a good sleep. Out!"

That was it, he was furious and left the room.

*In Mother India orphanage*

The girl is peacefully sleeping dreamily , carelessly tucked under a thin blanket which is halfly lying onto the floor rather than covering her. She had clutched her teddy beneath her, displaying her irrestibale cutness with her chubby cheeks and pouty lips containing the innocent looks at the same time. But, the question is , Is she an innocent??.
