Nameless relationship

Perhaps you can in get in kumudam online issues dating 3 to 6 weeks. I read it in paper book. It was a long story published in 2 or 3 instalments, if I remember correctly. Try if any of your friends buy the magazine & have not yet disposed of the old issues. The striking similarity was a decent, successful, slightly old gentleman's past love cropping up threatening to unsettle domestic peace, a trusting, good wife, the following blackmail, an almost relievingend, then a twist! A typical Sujatha story. The difference is it was a friend there bringing up the unpleasant past while it is the son.

[Shakthiprabha.]

His was shaken at the clarity of his memory.
At 59 years, his memories need not be
so fresh, that too after everything is gone.
He drove to a near by park, sat in a quiet bench. Sat there for hours
with noone to disturb him and shameless tears rolling uncontrollably.

PART - 3

Quietened streets, with tinkling of vessels being washed at some houses was propagating the stillness of night. Life itself is slowly withdrawing into a cozy cocoon .

Mind and its play too is almost akin. Desires, needs, ego want all dance boisterously only to tranquilize when the show is over.

Ringing the bell with shrieking noise, at odd hours was not a good idea. So he always carries a bunch of keys with him, to help himself into the house the days he is late.

Sumi must be fast asleep he thought to himself. Does she ever suprise him? Yes. She does. Very often.

"Atlast .... u are so late and never picked the cellular too. I was so worried"

"Was busy with some official meetings sumi"

"I was told u left the company too early today"

He stared at her. Long questioning stare which met with innocent unmalicious look of hers.

"Ah, some meeting with concerned person"

"okei. ur food is ready. Should I serve you"

"Thats okei. uve stood up late for me. Go sleep. I shall help myself"

It was 2 am. He kept shifting channels watching all yet watching none.

"YOU ARE STILL AWAKE? Something must be wrong with u!
IF Can help u, please share ur problems. I am all ears"

"no sumi darling, go sleep. I am alright"

"I forgot to tell you, our son, with his family is coming over for 10 days next week. They just called 2 dasys back"

He smiled.

"Good for you. Nice company to kill ur boredom."

"I am not bored at all. I keep myself so busy organising this big house of ours. Yes ofcouse having kishore and prarthana is a bliss, let alone the 2 yeaar old naughty varun"

"Oh yes, I found some diary lying on ur office table, just left it in second draw. I mean in case u are gonna search for it, u know.."

"oh... what diary?"

"how do i know. I just left it there. Good night. I am really sleepy. "

In case... he is gonna search for the diary.... he did. did he not? Not the diary, but reema. Reema which he knew so much, yet did not know at all.

This diary would be the educator, to know her... which ofcourse is of no use.

"Dear Raghav..
This is yours..
When I am nomore"

He stroked the diary.... her words.. her writing... it was like stroking her broad back and soothing her from tears.

She would burst out her problems to him, all those times he had just stood there to listen... and comfort with words except two to three times, when he hugged her to soothe her uncontrollable sobs.

He slowly turned the first page. It had started with the time she had moved into south india. Initial scribblings of hindi slowly over took to hindi mixed with english and soon enough
it was a diary filled with good clear comprehensible english.

"aaj humlog madhraas aaya aur MUJHE MADHRAS BILKUL PASAND NAHI"

(TRAnslated : 'I had moved to Madhras today and I HATE MADHRAS' )

Raghav's face slowly lit up with smile.

The time, the place and people and his first encounter with reema. That was a differnt world.

(to be continued)

Slow, steady pace! Sustained suspense! Sumi may not be dumb after all! Good going, SP!

[Shakthiprabha.]

hmm pp maam. Somehow this episode did not say much. I was not satisfied. Would try to do better later.

I am planning to decide upon the story now, so that i can take a very sure path from next episodes.

[crazy]

He kept shifting channels watching all yet watching none.
