“What do you want to talk to us?” Peterson sternly asked him. John’s attempt to make a friendly talking with those people did not work out. From the beginning the father and daughter’s response was hostile.
John really felt troubled to start talking. “I am the friend of Jasmine. She was very much upset with what happened to her brother.”
“It is not unusual. Any sister who feels genuine love towards her brother becomes like that if something like that happens to her brother.”
“I have come to know some startling things recently.” Then he narrated to them his going to Tippu’s aunt’s village and what Tippu had said to his friend Micheal there.
“I cannot know who that Chief is. I just want to ask you if you are having any knowledge about him.”
“Why you are thinking that we do have any knowledge about him?” knitting his brows together, Peterson asked him.
“Just curiosity. I know that you are a family friend of Margaret madam.”
“How because of that I can know about that Chief whoever he may be?”
John could not think of what to say to that. In fact he had visualized a situation like this even before coming here. Still he wanted to take a risk and he was taking it.
“I may be wrong that I am asking you like this. But what I am doing is just a general questioning with the hope that you may know anything about him since I am thinking that Chief might be known what Williams had seen in that palace.”
Rita and her father looked into each other’s faces. “Why are you thinking like that?” this time Rita asked him.
“Just a strong feeling that he has known about it.” John said.
“May be you are right. But we don’t know who is that Chief and how he looks like.” Rita said.
“We do also wish good health to that Williams. I am feeling sorry that we cannot be much help to you.” Peterson said.
“There is no necessity to worry about. Somehow or other I sure do know what Williams had seen in that palace on that day.” With firm voice John said.
“We both wish you best of luck for that.” Rita said.
John thanked them both and came away from there. The feeling that these two people knew certainly the necessary information had become more and more stronger in him. He felt bad that he could not get much useful information from these two people.

Liza once again became prey to her thoughts. She just could not escape from the troubling thoughts. Especially from the moment she had received the phone call from that boy, her mind was strongly urging her to love him back and marry him and she could not feel relaxed at all. She could not think of why she had got into a situation like this. It all has started with the idea of helping him and landed her in a situation like this. It was not so that she did not like him. In fact on the first day itself she was attracted so strongly towards him. The main problem was he was too young. Just twenty four years old. Nearly fourteen years younger to her.
On that day she saw him again in her chamber waiting for her. “You came again! It is a surprise to me.” She said looking straight at him.
“Why it is a surprise? Should not I come and see you?” there was a change in his manner which amazed her.
“Sure. But in which way? As my client?”
“No. As your friend.”
She smiled. Luckily there were no clients waiting for her then. She did not know why but felt happy on seeing him so.
“I am also happy. To have a friend like you.” She was feeling embarrassed because her clients soon start visit on her. “I really do like to share many of my things with you.” Why she said that so she did not know. Why she was feeling close like that with him?
“My feeling is also just the same.” He paused for a moment. “I am having friends but I have not felt close like this with anyone as I am feeling towards you.”
She smiled again. She immediately took a decision. She was not going to waste this wonderful opportunity. She also wanted a good opposite sex friend.
“Come. We both go somewhere where there shall be no disturbance to us.”
They come out of her office, she closed her office and locked the same. She knew a place which she liked a lot and they could talk everything with open hearts there.
***
They both sat on a rock on the beach where there were people around in far but no disturbance whatsoever.
“Are not you feeling anything at all that you have separated like this from your wife?” she asked him.
“Not even a bit. In fact I am feeling happy and relieved. I suffered hell these six months or so.” He hissed out.
She was waiting to hear if he would say anymore.
“It is not just my impotence that irritated her that much. On the whole she disliked me a lot.”
“Why did she marry you in the first place if she does not like you at all?”
“That is what a thousand dollars question to me also. Why she has married me if she not liked me at all?” there came distress into his voice again.
“Alright. Don’t worry about it too much. Now you are free and happy.” It was not unusual now a day that couple marry willingly and would become hostile from the next day itself. There might be reasons that Swapna married him willingly but became hostile to him in little time which Swaroop could not know.
“I thought she came into contact with an old boyfriend after our marriage who missed for a considerable period of time from her life. Thinking he never might come into her life again she married me. But once she came to him, she branded me like that ……... but it is just a wild guess …….…. really I failed to do it to her.”
“Anyhow why did you get that her lover idea?” she knitted her brows together.
“From her phone conversation I suspected it like this. It may not be true.”
“It is absolutely true. It is the reason” she paused for a moment and said again. “Don’t think about her much. Not only from your life, must she be evicted from your mind also.”
“I am not thinking about her much and her memories are not bothering me either.” He breathed deeply. “But the feeling I am impotent scorching my psyche. Why it happened like this to me?”
“I am saying again that you are not impotent. There is no impotency like thing. It is just your feeling.” She said.
He nodded his head in negation. “It is not like that. I tried many times. I must say she gave me the chance. But I could not.”
Liza did not know what to say.
“Sometimes I want to commit suicide. I just cannot bear the thought that I am impotent.”
She startled at once on hearing that. Now there was suicide tendency! “My God! You need a psychiatrist’s help immediately.” She said.
He did not say anything but closed his eyes.
“Why my sister Rose herself is a famous psychiatrist. I take an appointment with her. You go and immediately see her.”
He did not say anything to that either.
“Please. You said you are my friend. If you are really feeling that I am your friend go and see my sister. She sure would be helpful to you.” There was desperate pleading in her voice now.
“Sorry. No. I am not going to see anyone else.” His voice was firm. “I am feeling strangely close with you. So I have come to see you.”
Immediately she took a decision. There was no other way at all. “Then come to see me tomorrow also. At night. After nine. Don’t forget. If you are really feeling that I am your friend you must come on tomorrow at nine in the night.”
“Sis, you are once again fallen in deep thinking. About what you are thinking like this?”
Liza startled and came into this world. She was really irritated for the disturbance but forced a smile on to her lips while looking at her sister Rose.

Jasmine had fallen in thought. Now into her thought process Tippu entered. Tippu was a friend not only to her brother but to her also in their childhood. They both were so intimate in those days. Even she was not as much friendly as they were in their childhood, she has had a good feeling on him always and has a relationship also until John entered into her life. She never had thought that Tippu would do it like that. Why he guided her brother to see whatever it might be and turned him mad like that?
As John said his intention might not be made Williams mad like that. Whatever his intention might be it caused great damage to her brother. When his brother could become normal? She would simply kill that bastard Tippu if he appeared before her then.
But he used to be innocent. He used to be good. They played together. All different games. Whenever she remembered the games they played together she still felt shy and embarrassed. In fact he was a good friend not only to her brother Williams but to her also. What the real purpose of him in making his brother to see that bloody thing she could not understand however much she thought about it.
“What you are thinking so deep?” she heard the voice of her brother, came into the present and turned her head to look at him.
“Nothing.” She smiled. “It is a surprise that you came into my room. Please sit.” Showing the bed there she said.
He came and slumped himself in it.
“Did you remember anything about me that you came here like this?” she asked him hopefully
He nodded his head in negation. “No. I did not remember anything. But I am always feeling a strange closeness with you.” He smiled.
She nodded her head. “Alright. Don’t you remember anything about mother atleast?”
There came a troubling expression on his face. “I am trying but I cannot remember anything at all.”
“Its alright. Don’t force yourself to remember anything.” Remembering herself what Rose often would say about Williams, Jasmine said hastily. “Anything you do want to talk with me now?”
“You are my sister. Should not I come into your room unless I want to talk something with you?” he questioned her.
“Not at all, not at all. You are always welcome into my room and I am feeling very happy that you have come like this.” She got off from the chair, slumped beside him on the bed, placed her right hand on his right shoulder and said.
He nodded his head and said. “What is this John matter? Are you in love with him?”
On hearing that she removed her hand from his shoulder and stood up.
“Of course, yes. Don’t you like John much?”
“I did not say so.” Williams too stood up. “John is appearing to me as a gentleman. I think you can take good decisions regarding your life. Did I know John before I became forgettable like this?”
“Yes. You know him and you liked him also. You both are not very close friends. But you liked him.” She supplied the information.
“I think he is doing some engineering business. How it is going now?” Williams went to a nearby chair and slumped himself in it.
“It is fine. He has four employees in it. He worked for our organization also at one time in the past.”
“How do you come to know about him?”
“Because of you.” She smiled again. “You appointed him to do some work in our organization and I came to know about him then. He is a nice guy and so it is like this.’ she was indeed feeling happy that Williams was showing interest in John like this.
“Mother told me that she also liked John a lot. Congratulations! I shall see that you both marry very soon.” He said.
“Thank you very much brother.” She put her both hands around his shoulders and kissed on his cheek.
