The family was having a reputation in the town and James father and his father's brothers owned the very popular MNC which had its branches all around the world. The family was luckily wealthy and had no problems except one thing and that was what they were hiding from James and other children's in the family and which was their families secret and everyone knew about the secret except the youngsters in the family….
Meanwhile, when everyone was busy getting ready for the engagement ceremony at that time James parents were busy solving their families fate. They called for the monk. James parents used to believe in monks and their
Prophecy's.
"Pandit ji (monk), we are making James Mary Erica as per your saying, and we are making him Mary at a day before he turns 25 as you said. Please let us know what is our future and will we be able to get out from the clutches of that nagin (snake princess)? Will we be able to be out from the danger from getting killed in the revenge of that naagin for what we did 10 years ago with her parents"?
James' mother said.
She was looking tensed as if something was troubling her and what she was talking about like who is nagin and what they did to her parents and what happened 10 years ago.
"Yes! Yes! Pandit ji, please tell our fate that will we be able to be out from the danger you are indicating to, will that naagin will leave our lives"?
James father said.
"I don't know, but the wedding could help your family come out from some of the curse which that naagin's parents gave to you. The wedding can help your family to some extent, but could not save you and your family forever".
Pandit ji said and after inchanting some prayers forecasted that the wedding can let your son live forever and can save your family but it had to be held at the same place where that naagin cursed their family.
After saying so, the Pandit ji left the mansion and left James parents in trouble and tension.
According to Pandit ji they were organizing the wedding at the same place where the nagin cursed their family which was Himalayas of azamgarh and Plus they were doing whatever the Pandit ji said so that they could get out from the curse.
"I don't know what is going to happen, but I wish we wouldn't had killed that naagin's parents, if we wouldn't had stealed that nagmani (diamond) from that community of serpents, then surely our lives wouldn't have been at stake. I told you that night as well when we were stealing that nagmani from that naagin's family who were given responsibilities to save and to guard that nagmani as it belongs to Lord Shiva. It was you who was in greed of the powers of that Blackstone and look now we are cursed and even our lives are onl stake. I told you to run with the black stone, but you didn't hear me and killed that nagin's family, but I don't understand why you left that nagin. We could have killed her as well, I never thought that naagin would be this dangerous for us and our family. I want James to marry Erica as soon as possible so that we could get rid of that curse as you know that according to Pandit ji if James will marry before his 25th birthday I mean before one day of his birthday then we can get rid out of the curse that serpent's gave to us."
Mother said while she was looking very tensed.
"You are right dear, we are in an enormous problem and if James won't be able to get married to Erica before his 25th birthday , our and our families lives will fall in danger…"
"Why our families' life could be in danger"?
Father was saying this when James cut off his sentence and bang inside his parent's room…
"Son!! Look you are prepared, and you are looking so handsome, are you ready to get married I mean engaged to Erica. Believe me son she is gorgeous, and she will take care of you and you both are friends even from a very young age, right, believe me you will compliment me on my such decision…."
"I was asking about what will make our family in danger?"…
"Son nothing, we were just talking about a movie, and we were discussing its situation and dialogues…."
James' mother excused while lying to James, but James was smart enough to catch her lie and though he wanted to speak and wanted to ask more about what his father was speaking about but just because he didn't wanted to interfere; therefore he discontinued….
James had a very rough relationship with his father as he never understood him plus he makes his own decisions and impose it on James, and he has to abide it at anyway. He was never a good father for James, but always was a judge imposing his rules and regulations on him and without leaving him with any choice.
Though the relationship was never sweet but always getting more sour, still they had something that used to bind them together and that was James mother. It was James mother only who used to understand James. Except James mother, no one was there inside the family who was so much close to him and used to understand him this well.
