People's Respect

AUTHOR'S POV:

As soon as they reached the village they were unable to remember the route to balakrishnan' s house so Ravikumar stepped out of the car and decided to ask route from villagers by seeing this yuvi tried getting down from bus but Ravikumar insisted him not to. As a man in late forties came in the way he interrupted him.

"What do you want sir?" The villager asked.

"Do you know Balakrishnan? if u know can you please let me know how to reach his house" Ravikumar told.

"Yeah! I know sir who does not know our Balakrishnan sir's house and can I know why you want to go there? " the man asked.

"Actually, we are here for our son's marriage and Balakrishnan is my friend and this is my native ow we are living in the city" He responded.

"Oooh! so you are Ravikumar, aren't you? our madame came two days back and started arrangements for your son's marriage and now I m going there only so please follow me" the man instructed.

"Thank you" Ravikumar replied with a smile.

Then they reached Balakrishnan's house after 10 minutes of drive Balakrishnan's house was neither cottage nor palace but it seems like a mansion and was surrounded by the garden as they reached there two girls in their middle twenties welcomed Ravikumar and his wife Suguna...

YUVI'S POV:

I m on my way to our village. I lived here till I was 6 months old after that we moved to the city, because of our business. After like decades we are going back there, that too for MY WEDDING * note the sarcasm.

Frankly, I don't know anything about my wedding and my bride. About the wedding, I had office work so I couldn't look after it and so my father took on his shoulder as his best friend is here to help him and about my bride she is too shy to even speak in the call.

I don't know what to do, I m not much into this marriage but yeah I accepted it wholeheartedly and I m ready to take responsibilities. As we reached the village my dad stepped down to ask route, I tried to get down but dad insisted me not to.

After 10 mins we reached somewhere like a mansion, it was like a palace but not a one, it was a two-storied house looked old fashioned but well maintained which surrounded by garden it looked peaceful. And in a word, it looked like "Heaven".

My parents reached first, they were welcomed by two girls in there may be the early or middle twenties.

I was with my friends, they started discussing how to spend time here, I know we will enjoy a lot here, most of my friends, not most but everyone is from city background, so they have less idea about the village and their way of living.

I was in my own thoughts, I don't know when the girls reached me.

"Hey! you, you are Yuvi right?" she asked.

"yes! I am" I replied with a smile.

"Your parents are staying here and outhouse can accommodate only a few close relatives, so your friends can stay in the farmhouse they can feel free without elders. If it is ok for them it is ok or we can change the accommodation" she told with a smile along.

"Guys! Is it okay for you all, I think it will be the best option" I asked others opinions.

They talked among themselves and came up with the decision,

"yeah! Yuvi we will stay there, and what about you? will you come with us there?" One of my friends asked about my stay.

"I don't know whether I have something to do here or not, so I will ask mom and will let you know guys," I said to them.

"Then okay! you guys freshen up and eat, I will make arrangements there," She said and moved with her whom I think as, her friend.

Then a man showed us where to get freshen up.

I went in search of Mom, to ask her whether my presence is needed or not, at last, I found her.

"Mamma!" I called her.

"Yeah! Yuvi had your lunch?" She asked.

"No! mom I will have after the bath. I just wanna ask you whether I want to stay here or can I go to the farmhouse with others. Do I have to do anything?"I asked.

"No son, you can go with your friends. we will manage here" she said.

"Okay, ma! Then I will go there, call me if I have anything do" I said, she nodded.

Then I went towards my friends.

When I went there they were discussing something serious, as soon as they felt my presence they threw questions in me.

"Who was that?" ... One girl asked.           

"Beautiful" ... One of my male friends mumbled. Girls frowned at him.

" Who is she yuvi? "Shwetha asked.

"How do I know?" I shrugged my shoulder.

" Then, How that village beauty knows you, she came and spoke with you"... another male friend asked wriggling his brows.

All the girls frowned.

"What? village "beauty", you guys have a bad taste" ... another male friend teased.

All the other boys glared at him and girls supported him.

"Maybe she is working here as a servant" ... one of my female friends said shrugging.

"what? No, she didn't look..." another one started but I interrupted.

"Why are you guys hell-bent on knowing about them, leave that guys. Hear, I am gonna stay with you" I exclaimed.

"Hurray!" everyone shouted in unison.

Then all went to have lunch.

I and my best friend siddharth decided to take a bath before lunch so we took a bath and ate lunch.

When we went to living there the two girls were plotting the accommodation for all our relatives, they both maintained their smile always.

As soon as we all gathered they took us to the farmhouse.

The farmhouse was bigger than the mansion, it was mesmerizing. The farmhouse was surrounded by greenery.

  That was a paddy field, some people were working there.

They showed the rooms and left us saying that they will return in the night with our dinner.

I loved the place, it was heavenly. Air conditioners are not even required, the place was cool and the smell of the place wow! My nostrils were filled with the smell of freshness.

The afternoon passed like a wink of an eye.

We were sitting in the living of farmhouse and were playing.

Dinner arrived, everyone liked the food here, including me it was bliss.

It was a new experience for us.

The girls accompanied with the people who bought us dinner.

She instructed some servants to take care of us and told them to take us sightseeing.

They seem to be responsible but, I don't think they are workers here because everyone who works here respects them lets see I personally wanted to thank them .

I don't know why but after seeing them, now even I am curious of them.

Having this thought in my mind I went to my temporary room with siddharth.

As my head hit the pillow, I will fell into the deep slumber.
