“Yes, you are right.” She nodded her head. “I liked you a lot and forced myself to act like that but my real love is only for Madhukar.”
“Alright. If you cannot love me, I don’t force you to do that. But what about our daughter?” Viswanadh asked her.
“I am not going to trouble you with that little girl Viswanadh. I take her with me. She grows up in my affectionate care and custody.” she said.
“I kill you on the spot if you do say it like that again.” Viswanadh got off from the chair angrily and yelled “If you want to go away, you go away all alone. I don’t even let you touch my daughter, understood!”
“But she needs me at this time Viswa. You just don’t know how much a child of her age needs her mom. At the same time.......” she tried to say something more.
“My daughter does not need a mother who wants to go away and settle with another person happily. I can look after everything of her. You just get out.” Viswanadh did not yell this time but he was still angry and his voice was vehement.
“But Viswa.....”
“Don’t call me again Viswa. I am not feeling any intimacy with you to be addressed so.”
Viswanadh once again slumped in his chair and there was some painful silence between them both until Yamuna broke it. “I am sorry. I am terribly sorry.”
“You can go. You can go away at any point of time. But forget about our daughter, no, my daughter. Just forget that you are the mother of my child.”
It did not take long afterwards to Yamuna to take divorce from Viswanadh and marry the other person who was also a doctor. Viswanadh did not understand how a woman who lived with a man happily for five years or so and after having him a baby also with him could leave him and marry other person as if nothing took place in her life! If there were differences between them both, if for a long time she expressed herself at him that she wanted to be separated from him, Viswanadh would not have been shocked and disturbed that much. But Yamuna was so good to him in all respects till that moment and he did not think in his wildest imagination also that Yamuna would go away from him in such a way.
To divert his mind from the distress caused by his wife, Viswanadh did two things mainly. One, he concentrated and focussed completely on his daughter and two, he put himself completely in developing his business. Might be because of his whole hearted concentration Viswanadh could become utmost successful in both those tasks. Just as he hoped Prameela could become quite educated and she completed her M.B.A. in U.S.A. to help her dad and his business has reached tremendous heights with a huge turnover and its share price was in four digits. His business has got other subsidiary businesses also and even they were also going quite successfully, not listed either in BSE or NSE. His daughter was going to become owner of all his businesses as he alone has more than seventy five percent share in the company listed in the share market and absolutely owned the other businesses.
Even he wanted to cut off Yamuna from the life of Prameela completely, he could not do it like that. He knew very well that a daughter needs her mother more than she needs her father so he always allowed the relationship between Yamuna and Prameela but Prameela slowly understood what her mother did and reduced her intimacy with her as much as possible. Always the father and daughter were one, sharing the things with each other.
It was still very much puzzling to Viswanadh how it has happened like that on that day. Evalla was a beautiful girl and he had seen beautiful girls in the past also and the effect was just so as it was every time. His passion to develop in the business was that much that however much the desire in him to have a woman after Yamuna left him like that, he did not think about it at all. He worked like that without giving room to bodily urges until his businesses reached the milestone of one lakh crores turnover and by that time he stopped feeling any urge at all. When he offered her a job and when she got into his car also, he has no other idea at all except to provide means to her to live her life peacefully.
But it all started when she proposed marriage to him. He just did not know how it has become possible like that but her simply asking like that took the whole change in him. For the first time, after her asking so, her glamour and her wonderful youth came into his view. How vehemently he wanted to say ‘no’ to her request! If he wanted, he could have more glamorous girls than her but something specific in her, something he himself did not understand made him agree to that proposal. Suddenly he started feeling that much of her, he did not even bother how his daughter Prameela was going to be affected by that. Miraculously he found his whole heart filled with her. Just in one week from that day, they both have become man and wife.
“How you are feeling to be my wife now?” when they both were all alone in a room, after their marriage, Viswanadh asked her keeping her smoothly in his hug.
“Just fantastic! Wonderful!” she put her both hands around his neck and kissed on his lips straight. “I never have thought that this type of a wonderful thing would take place in my life!”
“What really made you to choose me for marriage?” looking straight into her face, he asked her. “If you are really frank in your answer, I shall be quite happy. Whatever may be the reason for your marrying me, there is no question that I do leave you now.”
“I don’t know, I cannot say.” The expression in her face was genuine. “Even you think that I chose to marry you for your wealth, I have no objection.” She laughed. “I am afraid even it is also may be the reason for my marrying you.”
Without anymore talking he hugged her strongly and kissed all over her face strongly. When he finished his kissing, she kissed on his left earlobe and said “I love you” and he did not know the reason why but those simple three words filled his whole body and heart with a sort of thrill which he could not understand at all. What he did not understand even more was how he was feeling that much of love towards a simple low class movie actress with whom he did not know how many people would have had sex by then. She was glamorous of course, but he was damn sure that it was not because of her glamour he was feeling like that towards her just because he could have more glamorous girls than her with his money. It was something else he did not know what making him feel in such a way towards her which he did not feel even towards his first wife even in those days while they both were together happily. What this simple unknown girl caused in him to feel in such a way towards her he could not understand at all. It might be love which no one can define.
Then it was started in a slow and measured way between them both and in no time she was completely nude in his hands and she not only allowed him to do whatever he wanted to do with her but was an active participant also. The joy was profound and full to him and by the time it has come to an end he not only completely exhausted but his heart was with full of satisfaction. By looking into the expression in her face he understood that she was also just feeling in the same way.
“Just hold me, hold me as If I am your own daughter” he really shocked on hearing it like that from her then and later on also on many occasions but he could not understand why she was asking him like that until Rose explained to him so.
“Dad” Viswanadh startled and came into this world when he heard the voice of his daughter and turned back to look into her face. They both did not have a heartfelt talking in between themselves once his marriage with Evalla took place like that. Moreover, after his marriage, it was the first time that she entered into his room straight like that. “It appears to me that you are thinking something very seriously about.” She slumped beside him on the bed.
There was a distressing note mixed with some happiness also instantly in his face. He did not expect at all that his daughter would come to him again and talk with him like that and it indeed created a happy feeling in him then. “Yes, I am thinking seriously. There is a serious problem to me now to face.” He said.
“I hundred percent can cay it is not related to our business just because I am also in it with you and it is going so smoothly for the present.”
“You are absolutely right dear” Viswanadh nodded his head. “This problem does not relate to our business.”
“That what is that problem that put you in this much of deep thinking?”
Even she was talking amicably like that with him, Viswanadh indeed felt uneasy to tell her about the problem of Evalla to his daughter then. After all he married a girl who was younger than two years to his daughter and he could understand how his daughter’s feeling about it then. He remained silent as he did not how to say about that problem to her.
“Is it relates to Evalla, your second wife?” she knitted her brows together and said.
“Of course, darling. You are right.” Without looking into her face, Viswanadh nodded his head.
“So far I understood that she has been suffering from a psychological disorder as a psychiatrist visited our house. But is the problem that much serious?” the driver Anand was so much intimate with Prameela and Viswanadh also and the three do have intimate discussions sometimes in between themselves. Viswanadh understood that his daughter might have come to know about it through Anand.
“Yes, it is serious.” Then Viswanadh explained to her what happened when Evalla visited the orphanage where she has grown up and returned to home. “Dr.Rose, that psychiatrist told me that she has been suffering from split personality disorder and it needs systematic treatment. She is confident that she can cure Evalla but.....” he paused.
“Tell me dad, what’s more in this?” once again frowns gathered on the forehead of Prameela.
“So far I understood that this split personality disorder is not an easy one to cure. It may take time and we have to have lot of patience also.” Then he looked into the face of his daughter and there was lot of distress in it then.
“Dad....” then suddenly Prameela put her right hand on his right shoulder and said. “Don’t worry. We deal with it together. We shall see that the problem shall be solved as fast as possible.”
On hearing that Viswanadh’s face lit with pleasure. “I just cannot believe it at all! I never have thought that you do say in this way to me!” there was full of pleasure in his voice also and it shivered a little while saying that.
“Its okay dad. Whatever happened is happened and she became your wife. It cannot be undone.” Prameela said sighing heavily. But this change has come into her after her recent meeting with her mother Yamuna. In fact she could not feel much love and affection on her for what she has done to her and her father but her mind involuntarily put itself into thinking about what Yamuna said. On thinking deep she came to the conclusion that her father did not do a grave mistake and there was no loss to her either by his marrying again like that. For a long time he remained all alone and took all the necessary care for her forsaking his happiness and joy and now it was the time for him to have it some. “Where is she now? I want to talk with her.”
“Really, really you do want to talk with her?” once again his face was masked with surprise.
“Yes, dad. I want to talk with her” with firmness in her voice Prameela said. “Once she became wife of you, she has been turned out as an important person to me also.”
“How this much of change has come into you I cannot understand!” with the same surprising expression Viswanadh said. “From the moment I married her and till this moment, you have been just like a stone.”
“I cannot say anything about that dad” Prameela did not want to tell her father at all that the change in her then was because of her mother’s counselling. She understood very well still her father detest and despise his first wife in the equal measure as he was in those days. “But you can expect full cooperation and help from me in all things. I just want to talk with her and assess the situation. Where she is now?”
“She went to a temple and may be back at any moment.”
“Alright dad, I shall be in my room and call me as soon as she came back.” She got off from the bed and walked towards the entrance then she heard her father’s voice again.
“Pramee.....”
“What dad?” she turned and looked into his face with gathered frowns.
“How can I convince you that you are my first priority always and the love and affection I have on you never do change?”
Prameela came near to him put her both hands around his neck and kissed on his right cheek. “You need not convince me about that dad. I know it for sure.” Then she released her hold and looked into his face straight. “And I am sorry I could not be like this till this moment.”
“I can understand that dear. If I were in your place, I would have become even more upset and angry.”
“Okay dad. Just call me when she returns. I come and talk with her.” She said, got off from the bed and turned back.
“You need not come, she comes to you.” While she was coming out of that room her father said on the back of her.
