23.You & Me - Sandhya

  

So akka is going to marry that stupid Ranjan?”

Krishna’s voice sounded doubtful.

“Yes that’s what she said…”

“And?”

“And what?”

“You didn’t say anything?

“I congratulated both of them…”

Krishna gave an angry look at Dinakaran and said,

“This is not fair bro…”

“What’s not fair?”

“You can’t do this to Thulasi akka…”

“Hmmm… What did I do?”

“You said if I set a condition like that everything between you two will get resolved”

“mmm…”

“And now you are talking like this…”

“See Krish, no one persuaded or forced her to marry Ranjan. It was her own decision what can I do about it?”

“You can’t do anything about it, really? I know you only indirectly forced her to take that decision…” complained Krishna.

“Krishna…”

“Yes bro, it’s all your fault… Akka can stay as a spinster rather than marrying that guy…”

“Have some patience Krish. Have you ever met Ranjan?”

“No”

“Then how are you so sure that he is bad?”

“I have heard a lot about him.”

“From Kavya right?”

Krishna nodded in acceptance.

“See Krish Kavya has negative opinion about Krish for various reasons… So obviously she would have shared only the negative aspects…”

“So you are saying that this Ranjan is a good person?”

“No, I am not…”

Krishna gave a confused look and said,

“Sorry bro, I can’t understand anything…”

“There’s nothing to understand Krish… Think about it like this…  Given a choice, a girl will select a person as her better half only when she knows for sure that he is a perfect match for her…  And only if she likes him… Do you accept it?”

“Hmmm… Yes…”

“So, may be Thulasi knows more about Ranjan than any of us… As I told you every one is against her marrying him but still she chose him… May be she feels that he is the guy for her…”

“Bro, are you playing your games with me? It’s my mistake! I shouldn’t have listened to you…”

Dinakaran got up from his seat, went near the window and looked outside the window for a few seconds and then turned back and said,

“Really speaking Krish, Thulasi’s decision came as an absolute surprise to me as well. But I tell you, this is for good…”

“What?”

“Yes Krish trust me and be quiet for a few more days…”

“Bro!”

Krishna’s voice had mixed emotions. He knew that his cousin brother is smart but he was also worried about Thulasi.

“Yes Krish, as I told you, Thulasi surprised me too…”

“…”

“Ok let me tell you the truth Krish…”

Krishna looked at his brother.

“Whatever happens, Thulasi will marry me only and I will not allow anyone to come near her… Even if this fiasco goes up to the last stage, I will do something… Why are you staring at me like this? We will abduct Thulasi and stop the marriage or hit that Ranjan in his head… Won’t you help me little brother?”

“It’s not time for fun, I …”

“No sir I am not saying for fun” said Dinakaran in a firm voice and added,

“See Krishna, I have no doubt that Thulasi loves me… as I said, I never expected this twist. But we can take advantage of this too… I had a different plan but Thulasi has made it easy for us…”

“But are you sure that Thulasi likes you?” asked Krishna in a very low voice.

Dinakaran looked at his brother but Krishna tried to avoid his brother’s eyes. A smile appeared in Dinakaran’s face.

“Don’t worry Krishna. Everything is fine… Now to answer your question, the first couple of meetings between Thulasi and me were not something that I can keep in my memory and cherish… It’s better if I can erase them from my memory…  But even at that time, Thulasi tried to avoid me but she never ever tried to hurt me in anyways… That’s her character… Now, even though she dislikes Ranjan...”

Krishna interrupted and said,

“But we are assuming so, aren’t we bro? Isn’t it possible that akka really likes Ranjan as you said few minutes back…”

“No Krish, Thulasi herself told me that she doesn’t like him… But still she was quiet when he mentioned her as his fiancé mainly because of her nature… she won’t show her anger just like that… But see how she reacts to me when there’s a small, very small, a petty misunderstanding… don’t you understand?”

“So you are saying akka said that she will marry Ranjan just to confront you?”

“Exactly little bro!”

“Mmmmm…”

“I never thought there are things that are so very interesting in life Krish… Thulasi is such an adorable character… She is more like an angel…”

“Stop, stop brother! Now I understand that you are really in love… You need to tell all these stuff to akka and not me… So what should we do next?”

“Wait and watch… “ said Dinakaran with a smile.

“Hmmm…”

“The coming few days will be fun Krish… By the way, are you not going to office? I see you roaming around always…”
