His Eternal Obssession (Completed)

Chapter - 48

Goutham: I thought we could cuddle in bed all day but why are you awake so soon ?

Mithra: I love that idea but I have something to tell you.

Goutham got down and pulled the teapoy and sat opposite to her holding her hand with a smile all ready to hear her.

Mithra: I know you don't mind about the formalities or rituals but still we got married and we will be returning home in one or two days so I want to remove the nuptial thread and add the nuptial pendant to my chain. Its a long one and I can hide it well. I hope you don't mind that I will have to hide it until I convince my parents.

Goutham pecked her forehead and then kissed her knuckles.

Goutham: Five years before, the day I met you for the first time I promised myself that I will put myself before to save you from anyone who could hurt you, to walk by your side to face every moments of happiness and fights together and finally to be behind you to support and watch you grow and achieve all your dreams so we are going to fight together for our love. Right that moment I etched you as my wife in my heart so none of the rituals matters to me. I don't mind even if you don't wear it so I will stand by all your decisions. Give me few minutes and I will help you. Also I have got a surprise for you.

Mithra hugged him and he patted her back before he pulled back from the hug and rushed to the washroom. Mithra was scrolling through her mobile when he walked out of the washroom drying his hair with a towel. Wearing a shirt he sat next to her he first helped her removed the hook of her chain and later she removed the nuptial pendant and Goutham slid the pendant in her chain and clasped it around her neck. Mithra removed the nuptial thread and carefully saved it.

Goutham: What will you do with that ?

Mithra: We will keep this as a memory. There are people who will make a resin frame to keep the memories of this nuptial thread, flowers from our garlands too.

Goutham: But I did not inform Rehman to save the garland.

Mithra: I did inform him to preserve until we return home so once we get back to home we will get a frame of it along with this too. They will include our wedding photo along with date of marriage.

Goutham: Wowww see you prove everytime that you are so intelligent and sensitive when it comes to us. Now its time for surprise.

He opened the wardrobe and returned with a jewel box in his hand. Mithra opened it and found a gold heart locket. Goutham removed the chain which had his initial and removed his initial from it. He opened the locket and placed the initial inside the locket before he hooked it to the chain.

Goutham: I know you will be in trouble if your parents question about a new chain, a short one and you cannot hide my initial in it so now they will just get to look at the locket and you need not hide that.

He kissed the locket and Mithra leaned on his shoulder holding both the chains in her hand.

Mithra: Wish everything goes smooth and I don't need to hide my precious things and walk proudly as your wife in public.

Goutham: Don't worry that day is not so far. Once we are back we will work for that and I will take you to my parents the very next day. Did you talk your parents today ?

Mithra: hmmm. I spoke to them while you were asleep.

Goutham: Get ready lets go out for breakfast and before that give me the list your brother gave to you. We will do shopping for your parents and Vinay today.

Mithra opened her handbag and picked the paper and passed it to Goutham. He froze on reading it and passed it to Mithra. She looked his reaction and turned her attention to the paper in her hand which read " Have a safe and happy journey Mithu ". She smiled as tears escaped her eyes.

Mithu: See I told you this boy behaves like my elder brother. I still remember the innocent Vinay but not sure when he turned out be so mature and caring though he never fails to annoy me.

Goutham: He definitely deserve a best gift from us so I will do shopping for him today.

They reached a shopping mall and Mithra patiently watched Goutham doing shopping for her family and she could feel the care and love he had for them as if they were his.

At Chandru's flat in Chennai:

Chandru pushed the food that Rehman placed in front of him and stormed to his room and sat on the bed raking his fingers through his hair. Rehman followed him and stood leaning on the wall with his arms folded.

Rehman: Nothing will change just because you keep starving Chandru. Just two more days and he will be here to meet you. 

Chandru: Why can't you call him and let me speak to him to end all this tortures of being kept under house arrest at my own home ?

Rehman: That is not possible. I can speak to him only if he wanted and call me. His mobile is switched off.

Chandru: Atleast give me your mobile to call my girl friend. My life has taken unexpected twist and I need to fix a lot of things. I lost my love, friend and if i don't work to fix it at the earliest then I might lose them forever in my life. I will die then.

Rehman: Again the same drama. Please don't start with your girl friend drama again and I m not the one to listen to all your side of stories. I wish you had some genuine reason and there is no conflict between you and boss. 

Rehman placed the food on the table and returned to the hall and saw a message from Goutham to make arrangements for their return to Chennai the next day. He immediately started to work on it and was happy for Goutham and Mithra's life and at the same scared about Goutham's meet with Chandru and his parents.

With due respect I don't stand in favour or support of women harassment or abuse. Any sequence in the plot are purely imagination and has nothing to do with the women in real life.
