" Can I know what you want to talk about with Uncle?" Dhruv asked his mom.
" Don't worry. I want to talk about your marriage with his daughter and I need to take her horoscope details of Amrutha. So that I can remedy through prayers if there is any problem with her horoscope. I want you to be happy with your wife and children for life long." his mother informed.
" Okay...mom. As you respect my feelings, I too respect your beliefs. " Dhruv replied.
" I love you mom…" he hugged her.
" I love too dear…" she kissed his forehead.
Dhruv was so happy that his mother accepted his love. He just wanted to share his happiness with his friend cum brother, Karthik. So he immediately made a call to Karthik and informed him about his love for Ammu.
On hearing the news, Karthik was so excited about the news but Dhruv told a word from Karthik that he will only express his love after her studies. He strictly told it may affect her safety and her studies till then he doesn't want Karthik to discuss his love with her.
Karthik promised that he will not tell anyone.
The same day afternoon, Amrutha wanted to talk with Mithuna. When she made a call to Mithuna, her mother attended the call and informed her that she was sleeping and not feeling well. Ammu disconnected the call with disappointment. She waited for her call till night but Mithuna didn't call her. Mithuna messaged her that she will be joining the college after one week. Ammu felt weird with the message because the priority in her life is education.
But Ammu brushed away negative thoughts and replied as okay. But she was unaware of what happened to her.
…...
...
After four days in college….
" Hi, Mithu….how are you?" Ammu greeted her as soon as she entered the classroom.
" Fine…." She replied in a single word with puffy red eyes.
" Why are your eyes red? Any problem?" Ammu asked anxiously.
" No problem. While I was bathing, soap water went into my eyes. Nothing to worry about." Mithuna replied.
" I think we should take someone's notes in our class as we were absent for a few days," Mithuna diverted the topic.
Ammu observed Mithuna's behavior from the morning and confirmed that there was some problem but she was not comfortable sharing her problem with anyone.
In the evening every day, at the end of the class usually, Mithuna and Amrutha go together to their respective houses. But strangely Mithuna denied going with Amrutha.
" What happened, I am observing you from the morning? Why are you so calm? " Amrutha asked worriedly.
" We shifted our home to another place two days back. Now we have to travel in separate ways. Bye," Mithuna walked towards the bus stop.
Amrutha looked at her blankly while she was walking away from her.
Her behavior, the sudden shifting of the house, and the sudden leave for the college….everything was confusing to Amrutha.
….
…..
As the driver was waiting for her, she went to the house thinking about her friend, Mithuna.
As soon as she reached her home, she went to her room and closed the room. She made a call to Aditya to know whether anything happened between Mithuna and Aditya. He attended the call after the long ring.
" Adi...Is there any fight between you and Mithu?" She asked curiously.
" I met her five days back. It's all over. And please don't call me to talk about her. I lost all my hope. " Aditya replied without any interest.
" She was so quiet for the whole day. She didn't even come to college for four days. I thought you love her and care for her but you don't love her. Sorry to disturb you. From now on, I don't call you" Amrutha disconnected the call.
Instantly, Aditya made a call but she disconnected the call in anger. As Aditya was calling continuously, she kept her mobile in silent mode. She sat thinking about Mithuna's sudden shifting of the house.
" Hi, Ammu...What are you thinking so deeply? " Dhruv appeared in front of her all of sudden.
She felt so happy seeing Dhruv. She stood up from the bed and took long strides towards him with a bright smile.
" Thanks for coming. Why didn't meet me for the last three days? " She whined.
" But I was texting you, calling you…" he replied.
" But you didn't come to take me out as you promised. " she pouted.
" Your health was not well so I come here to take you out now." He said.
" Really! " she said excitedly.
" Yeah...but tell me why were looking worried? What were thinking, ?" He inquired.
" About my friend, Mithu. She was so upset and quiet. Even I asked many times, she didn't tell me what was bothering her. I am hell worried about Mithu. " Amrutha said sadly.
" Shall we meet your friend, now?" Dhruv asked.
" But she informed that they shifted to a new house and I dont know that address," Amrutha said.
" Okay. I will come to your college tomorrow evening. Then we can talk with your friend" he suggested.
" Shall we go out now?" He asked Amrutha.
" Hmmm….Let's go to the park." She said enthusiastically.
" Give me 20 minutes, I will get ready " she added.
When they were talking in Amrutha's room, her maid informed her that someone was waiting in the hall to meet her. Dhruv asked the name of the person who came to meet Ammu.
" I dont know sir, the man is similar to your age" the maid answer.
" Ammu, I will see who came to meet you. Meanwhile, get ready and came to the hall" Dhruv informed and Amrutha agreed to his words.
Immediately, Dhruv stood up from the chair to know about the person whereas Amrutha went to take a dress to wear. He left the room so that she would get ready.
He descended the stairs and stopped looking at that person.
" Why did you come here? What is your work with Amrutha?" Dhruv questioned him.
