❝Your past doesn't define your future. Embrace change, and let your dreams shape your destiny❞
In the bustling streets of Hyderabad, Ekantha, a young woman haunted by insecurities and a painful past, is at a crossroads. She finds solace in natur...
Meanwhile, Vishalakshi narrated everything that happened there. Ekantha was trying to digest everything that just happened in a couple of hours. Now one thing she was sure of, she wasn't going to stay here like a burden on Vennela's head. But where were they going to go?
"Amma, can we go back to village and see what the issue is? If everything settles down there, can we go back there only?",Ekantha asked.
"We'll see about it,kanna. We need to go and bring ammamma and thathayya(grandmother and grandfather) here",Kanyaka said.
"Just a few more days, Vennela. I promise we won't create any trouble",Ekantha said earning a smack from Vennela.
"Did I tell you that you were causing trouble here? We don't have any problem Ekantha! First go and pick them up! I'll book a cab just wait",she said and Ekantha held her from doing anything else.
"I'll do it, no worries! Anika, please ask him to go away from here and we'll go in an auto or something and pick ammamma and thathayya",Ekantha said and Anika nodded.
"Aunty, I'm so sorry you also had to be here leaving everything",Ekantha apologised to Vishalakshi.
"Oh c'mon, Ekantha! What is family here for? Aren't we supposed to stand strong when we are facing some hardships. I did message Abhi, he should be here anytime soon. Why don't we wait for him? You can pick your grandparents along with him",Vishlakshi suggested.
"Aunty, he did ask me to call before I start from work but his phone was switched off, maybe he has some work. Its not a big deal we will manage",Ekantha said and Vishalakshi hugged her tight.
"You are strong, Ekantha! Keep up the brave act, I am happy and don't forget you have me no matter what. Just a call and text away, even if that idiotic son of mine doesn't come into the scene, I'll be there! You are doing really great ra, at this young age though there are many things that you need to take into your hands and take the responsibility, you are doing it very well. Proud of you",she said and patted her head gently pulling away from the hug.
No matter how many things we do, sometimes appreciation makes wonders and when someone tells us they are proud of us that completely gives another feel to us. Ekantha was no different, happy tears brimmed in her eyes and there was a knock on the door again. Ekantha quickly wiped her tears and waited as Vennela opened the door.
"Abhi? Come in, we were talking about you only",Vennela said and moved aside making space for him to enter into the house.
His eyes were searching for his girl, and as soon as he got a glimpse of her he was in peace that she was safe and sound.
"What happened, amma? Why is everyone here?",Abhi asked and Vennela narrated him everything that happened. All the time, though he was listening to what happened from Vennela, his eyes were on Ekantha. She was lost in deep thoughts, he badly wanted to run to her and cage her in his arms and assure her everything is going to fine and she got him on his back.
"Abhi, they have to pick their grandparents from his home. Will you go with them and help them shift here?",Vishalakshi said and he nodded.
"Aunty, Ekantha please come",he said and both of them nodded. They started from Vennela's home, Ekantha sat beside him in the front seat while her mother sat in the back seat. Both of them were completely lost in thoughts and Abhi was angry as well, how could Ketan do something like that? How much more worse can he get? He badly want to confront him but this was not his place to do so and when right time comes he wouldn't stay calm like this. No talks were initiated and they reached Ketan's house in around half an hour.
He went in along with Ekantha and Kanyaka, Kanyaka broke down as soon as she saw her parents and Ekantha cried hugging her grandfather. He was just like a father figure to her when her father wasn't there for her.
"Don't cry, kutti! We'll manage everything. I have already called some of my friends and they are ready to help us out. I know everything, don't worry your thathayya is not that weak and meek. I will teach him a lesson for making my precious lifelines cry like this. I don't want to stay here for one moment also. Pack all your things, if there are any. No need to leave him anything here. Every single thing that you own pack it and we are leaving to our village from here. The car will be here soon",her grandfather said.
"Who is this boy?",her grandmother asked seeing Abhimanyu there standing in a side listening to everything.
"He..he is my fiancee, ammamma",Ekantha said in a meek voice.
