    Chapter-50

    Srikanth


    We were in Vivaan’s room and I was giving him the stuff I bought for him. We just arrived that morning. Sriram had a sullen look on his face which I couldn’t decipher, might be his project closure and trip back home makes him remember about Meera.


    ‘Hello my boys..’ dad came inside Vivaan’s room. Vivaan got up from the chair and settled in bean bag.


    ‘When did you come back dad?’ Vivaan asked.

    ‘Just now….’ Dad’s eyes rested in the poster on the wall.’


    ‘Mukund uncle gifted me this along with Harry Potter book set.’ Vivaan said proudly. Dad’s started smiling. It was then I looked at the poster and it had a famous dialogue of ‘After All this Time…Always..’. Dad caught my eye and we started laughing.


    ‘Why are you laughing?’ Vivaan asked. ‘That dialogue comes in last book between Severus Snape and Dumbledore..’ he started explaining.


    ‘You will understand when you grow up a bit..’ dad said. Vivaan wanted to protest something when dad pointed to me and Sriram ‘I want to talk to you both of you before dinner. Office room in another ten minutes.’ Dad said getting up from the chair.


    ‘Another grown up talk?I’m not required right?’ Vivaan asked curiously.


    ‘Yes….I need more time on talking about why you punched your classmate’s nose. We will do that post dinner along with your mom.’ Dad said going out Vivaan’s room


    ‘What’s the matter at school?’ I asked.


    ‘He is our vice principal son, constantly bullying my friend..’ Vivaan sounded really angry. After hearing Vivaan’s version, I was sure that he was just standing up for his friend.


    Dad was in a call when we went to office room.


    ‘Sagar and ORK just stay back on the line, others can drop off..’ he was saying. I have to reply to ORK on what’s next. I’m officially on leave next three weeks. I have some personal chores which I should finish by then. I was lost in thoughts when dad was asking something to Sriram and he was shouting


    ‘I don’t understand dad. I was working my butt off ….’


    ‘Sriram hang on..I merely said you were not in love since a long time and you were chickened out to tell that to her..’dad said firmly.


    ‘That’s right. She was just recovering..I was just waiting for appropriate time to end..I was giving subtle hints to her as well..’ Sriram said.


    ‘Hmmm..Kishore’s son started spending more time with her and Meera started falling for him. You could have taken a leaf from me Sriram..loveless relationship is toxic for you and everyone around….’ Dad said. He appeared to be concentrating on something and then said’Come in Priya..’


    ‘Hello, feeling better now?’ she asked us.


    ‘I’m feeling better but you appear very tired and you are later than usual right?’ I asked her.


    ‘Yes..Kauveri..Harini’s mother has been managing everything and now she is in long leave..Didn’t even get to sit for a minute today..’ Priya said.


    ‘You should find a replacement considering she will be on a long break. Is she planning to continue?’ dad asked.


    ‘She will continue..’ Priya was saying


    ‘What happened? Everything alright with them? I haven’t connected much with Harini since last month’ I asked.


    ‘All is …’ Priya started saying something that was interrupted by dad.


    ‘Srikanth.. What do you mean? I’m under the assumption you weren’t in touch with Harini. I warned you against giving false hopes when you are unclear on what you wanted. Are you together now or still you are keeping her hanging?’ Dad asked. I could see he was really angry with me.


    ‘That…yeah..I couldn’t….How does that matter? She didn’t ask me anything..’


    ‘Right..’ dad said and left the room saying ‘I need to smoke..’.


    ‘Srikanth..if Ramya suffering alone is what stops you from committing to Harini, you should speak to Ramya and help her find a partner again. It’s high time you talk to Harini about what’s stopping you so that she can help in that too…’ Priya said and left the room.


    ‘You were planning to meet Ramya right?’ Sriram asked



    ‘Yes that’s the reason I came. She mailed me about house warming function, the house Dev wanted, but she refuse to accept any help from me….You think Harini will understand.’


    ‘What do you loose by trying Srika…Shall I help? Let us talk to Nandhini..’


    He called her number and put she wasn’t picking the call. We decided to call her later. Dad was still in garden and I went to him.


    ‘Dad..lot of things going on in my mid..you won’t..’


    ‘Understand…You know what I’m keeping tabs about Ramya, she kind of feels guilty moving on because of you..Because you split up with Harini because of Dev. Srikanth, end this guilt cycle. You can’t remain hidden without facing reality. It’s criminal to make someone waiting that too for two years. I won’t talk to you any further on this. But I hope you sort out this mess soon ’ dad said and led me to dinner.


    Vivaan was chatting through out dinner and in between I asked Priya about why Harini’s mother was in long leave.

    ‘If you are that concerned and curious ask her yourself..’ Priya said.


    ‘May be Harini is getting married or something. Think of it bro, you dragged this along for two years, she completed her MBA also…’ Sriram said.


    ‘That’s a good angle Sriram..’ dad said. I was sure dad knows the real reason.


    ‘Would you be gate crashing the wedding anna..like in 80’s movies?’ Vivaan asked


    ‘Harini is not getting married I’m sure about it.. I have made a pact with Nandhini to tell me if something happens in Harini’s personal life..’ I said loud and firmly. I was sure Harini is waiting for me, for the things to resolve.


    ‘I hope Nandhini kept her promise..’ Sriram remarked.


    Post dinner after lot of contemplation I rang Harini. It was picked by somebody else.


    ‘Hello..I’m Srikanth. Is Harini around?’


    ‘She has gone out for shopping..’ said the voice.


    ‘Whom I’m talking to?’ I asked.


    There was cough at other end. ‘I must be asking you this…’ said the voice.


    ‘I’m Srikanth..’


    ‘You announced it already.Who are you? Her friend? Boy friend or still the ex-boy friend who doesn’t know what to do with life?’ the voice asked.


    ‘That’s none of your …’


    ‘That’s very much my business..as her father I can’t let you fool around each other…’


    ‘Father??’ I asked. I have met her drunkard father and it didn’t sound like him


    ‘Step-father but nevertheless it’s time you stop complicating each other’s life..’ the voice said now firmly.


    ‘I didn’t know Harini’s mother got married..’ words came out automatically though few months before she said she suspects her mom is serious about someone.


    ‘Add it to the list of important things you haven’t talked about..’ the voice said with a smile.


    Ufff.. Who is her step-father? Looks like he knows a lot about our relationship I kep wondering as the night progressed.
