Ennai mayakiya mellisaye..( The melody that enchanted me)

Chapter 3

We are into this Rudra... We want you to marry Meenakshi...

No.. I'm sorry... I can't... I'll leave... He said and stood from the couch and went towards the door...

Then, forget me Rudra.. forget that you have a grandpa... He said in a cold voice...

Thatha, this is too much... You are telling me to forget you for that illiterate girl, what she did some black magic on you? That idiot...

Stop.. don't even utter a single word about that child anymore... You didn't want to marry her, that's it, no more words about her... I thought that I raised you right, we didn't raised you to talk about that innocent soul like that... but I am wrong.. Just don't even come infront my face... Even if I die, I just don't want you to see me... His grandfather said angrily and went out...

Thatha... What are you even talking? He asked looking at him..

He looked at his parents and shook his head and left from there..

He went to his room and sat on his bed by holding his hair in a tight fist...

Thatha... He screamed in anger and threw the night lamp which is beside his bed with a force.

Enna vida ava mukiyama ungaluku? Why are you pressuring me? And this is the first time you are asking me something, that I definitely can't do thatha.. I just don't want to marry that Meenakshi... He mumbled..

( Is she more important than me to you?)

Please thatha.. ask me something anything other than this, I can happily do that for you... He thought and called his friend and asked him to come to his home..

He went to the terrace and looked at the sky, standing holding the rail...

Hey.. ena da emergency nu vara solitu inga iruka? Vijay asked coming towards him..

( What man? You asked me to come here for some emergency, but you are standing here?)

He turned and looked at him and said everything happened..

Oh!!! But Machan, thatha yedhayum yosikama seiya mataru, ne nalla time yeduthu think pani solu da... Maybe it's...

( Oh!!! But Dude, grandpa won't do anything without thinking about that for so many times.. you just take your own time to think about this and tell him your answer)

Nothing to think and act.. how can I marry an illiterate girl da? How? What this society will think about my marriage? How can I face others after marrying a girl who hardly passed her primary education, who is an orphan and even brought up in a village by a priest? Tell me da...

Does she even know how to behave if I introduce her as my wife to my teammates? Or any other person from thatha and appa's business background? No da.. please understand me.. it can't happen.. my life will get spoil da...

Do you think that your parents and grandpa will deliberately spoil your future by fixing your marriage with her? Vijay asked..

Machan please.. I thought you will understand me..

( Dude... Please)

I'm getting what you are saying da.. but.. just leave this for now.. we will think about something...

Thatha doesn't want me to talk with him.. he said he don't want to even look at my face and stromed out from the room.. he said and rubbed his face in worry...

Please Rudra, leave it.. let us think and do something to stop this marriage and I'll talk with grandpa.. saying that he took Rudra with him and they went to the private beach house owned by Vijay.. they spent sometime there..

Machan.. I didn't thought to buy a beach house before da.. it's giving some peace da.. I wanted to buy one now.. Rudra asked.. they are on their way home..

Sure.. I'll help you in buying a classy house.. Vijay said and they drove in silence...

At dinner..

Amma.. where is grandpa?

He already had dinner and went to sleep...

Hmmm... Amma, you are also taking grandpa's side and asking me to marry her.. why ma?

See Rudra.. I don't want to talk with you about that.. it's upto you, you can decide what you want to do and whom you want to marry.. we are just whom raised you and that's all.. nothing else..

Amma.. why are you talking like that? He screamed...

Don't shout at your mother man. Sit and have dinner... His father said ..

Appa...

As she told, you can decide about you and your future Rudra.. we will not pressure you... I'll talk with thatha.. he said and left..

He looked at his mother who is leaving with his father and he washed his hands and ran to his room and laid down in the bed.. he slept eventually even without changing his dress...
