Such a lovely sister

Lovely update

Eagerly waiting for next one

Wow.. poor guy. And a lovely sister. The mom was sweet too.

And poor paa too. Life has changed way to fast for his generation. Although we don't know much about his true nature I'm wondering if he might see things differently especially, thinking of him looking at A when A was pacing the balcony during his parents last visit.

I do hope everyone thinks of Druu first. And the poor kid already has so many not too great circumstances in his life despite M's undivided attention. I belive M carrying the baby and being with him 24/7 is her trying to rescript her own childhood. A helping hand would be great. And A's and his family's love would be her treasure. Poor darling my heart goes out to her and to Atty too. Good on him for his efforts.

Atty's father may be rigid and dominating, but he must have a good side too. He did accept the kid and in time he may see that Mru is a product of her past. To her credit, she has done well for herself and lived a clean life, loved her child.

Apoorva is such a sweet sister. Atty and her do care for each other. Even if she doesn't think she is brave enough, when the time comes, she will defend her brother.

Hard to tell what the father's reaction will be. He has already seen his son go through a broken marriage. At the end of the day, as a father he does want happiness for his child.

Good to hear back from you and know everything is okay.

Damn, Attis dad seems like a piece of work as well. This is going to be a trip for Mrunali.

“Is it OK if I call you at 8 PM?” Aatreya asked his Dad reverentially

“Umm.. yes… you can call me any time” chuckling

“Oh yeah I know” nervous laugh

“Your mother says we are strangers” laughing

“She is funny” more nervous laughter

“Is everything OK?”

“Umm.. yes… sir… yes… Pa”

“How is the boy?” smiling

“Very good” “Very good”

“Did he tell you?”

“I am sorry… umm.. about what?”

“On his birthday and New Year yesterday I taught him, his first mantra” proud

“Oh? That’s great”

“He did not tell you?’

“Actually it was a busy day… he must have forgotten”

“That’s OK” smiling

“I am sure he will learn it quick”

“He already chanted this morning”

“Oh he did?” astonished

“Yes, even I asked him if he is looking at the computer”

“U can never be sure”

“He is a very disciplined boy” proud

“Yes… umm.. (Thanks?) “ Aatreya stopped short of expressing pride

“I told him mother has sent him some snacks”

“Oh great”

“When we come end of January we will take him for outing”

“Yes Pa”

“You sound distracted”

I AM SH---G IN MY PANTS he swallowed

“Umm.. I have my 6 month performance evaluation next week” he muttered nervously

“They hired you to manage 400 people they must know what they are doing”

“Thank you, but banking is so volatile, even if I was their favorite guy yesterday I may not be… tomorrow” nervous laugh

“You have good education putta (dear)”

“Thanks Pa”

“You wake up in the morning, you should say that stotra” (Reminds him of the name and the first few verses)

“Eh.. um..”

“You are not religious, as parents we can instill good values, we cannot watch you every day…. You are a father now, you should realize”

“Yes” he nodded

“I will pray for you” protectively

“Thank u”

“If the review is not upto your expectation just remember what Lord Krishna said to Arjuna”

“Yes”

Somesh Rao chanted some Gita verses

“I will talk to you at 8 PM”

Aatreya hung up and buried his face in his palms and groaned

A part of him wanted to elope… again

He had done that one in the US, with the wealthy heiress

Everyone knew that aged like milk

He went to his phone and texted Mrunalini

“Would you mind seeing me for dinner?”

No response for two hours

“Can you pick up Dhru?”

“Yes” smiley

“Why dinner?”

“I have to talk to my Dad I will feel safer with you” he said honestly

Her heart thudded furiously

He was relying on HER?

No one ever relied on HER

I mean… c’mon

“U need my protection?” smiley

“All of it” smiley

“Do u like Maharashtrian food?”

“I do like Maharashtrians” smiley

“All of them?”

“Just one… and oh! 1.5 actually” smiley

“Half a human?”

“Yes” smiley

“Dhru?”

Smiley

“OK”

He burst out laughing

She could make him feel so much better just by being herself he realized

Sigh!

Brahmins are rigid by nature.

They don't mind being friends with everyone but inter cast marriage is still big. Though it has changed a lot. Know of many who have whole heartedly welcome spouse of their kids irrespective of caste.

Hope Somesh is one of them too.

It was sweet of Atty to ask Mrunalini to be there.

“I have to talk to my Dad I will feel safer with you” he said honestly

😳❤️

There is drastic difference in the way Atty and Mrunalini have been bought up.

One was left alone by herself to grow up and only ensured that there is no dearth or money.

Other was given all the love that one can hope for. But with that love also came some rules which at time were too strict and rigid in their own way.

hope these two come together and give Dhru balance of j by other world.
