Arjun Pov
"Sir, this is the last month's report of our company that you have asked for," Karunas Anna gave me the file.
You would have thought why I am mentioning our company's manager as Anna right. Because I want to develop a friendly environment in my workplace.
"Anna, how many times I have told you to call me Arjun? Why are you stubborn on calling me, Sir?" I asked him.
"No problem sir, when it comes to business I like to be professional. Maybe after the official hours, I will try to call you as you like. Is it ok?" Anna asked.
"You won't change, Anna. Fine, you can call me whatever you like," I replied and he went off.
So, Hi all, This is Arjun. I am 27 years old B.E graduate. And I am managing my Dad's company (Steel Business). Our company is not the best one, but a good one to satisfy all our family needs. We are not rich but we are upper-middle class.
My dream is to create my own company, but I got failed in my last 3 attempts. And as you guys think I didn't lose my hope. Now I am thinking to start a business with my knowledge and with a small amount of investment. I will disclose the plan to you guys after making a perfect plan.
I am a lovable person to my loved ones and gentleman to the peoples who deserves respect. But I am the most arrogant one when someone tries to mess with me.
I will respect the peoples who are elder in their mind and heart, but not by their age. I love my family and friends more than myself. I can do anything for them because they deserve it.
My Dad(Prakash) is now taking the rest after his retirement to this business and my Mom(Ramya) is a housewife. And my cute sister(Dharani )is pursuing her BDS degree.
And last, but not least my Grandma(Amirtha) is spending her quality time with us. My inspiration is my grandma only because she is such a great businesswoman at my age itself. I will always be proud of my iron lady.
I have three best friends that are Karthick, Anitha, and Swetha. These people are my life savior. We all were done our schooling and college in the same institution and the same class. We all are so much lucky.
And when I am doing my business these peoples are the only ones who supported me and knows everything about me. Now, Karthick and Anitha are working in the same IT company. And Swetha is not working for now as she wants to enjoy her bachelorhood for some time.
When it comes to my body, I don't have a perfect body. My skin color is brown and my height is 6′2'.
I don't have six-packs and all, but I am attractive and handsome in my own way. This is the comments of the girls who try to woo me, but they are all fake ones who got attracted to me and there is no true feeling for me. That's all for now.
I have started to pack my bag to leave my office. And I forgot to tell you guys something which is important.
That is, I am going to be married in 3 days. You guys are shocked right, but that is the fact. I am not happy and also not sad with this arrangement, because I don't have a past relationship or something to feel about.
You guys will be asking why because I don't feel that true emotional feeling with anybody except the one. Nowadays people's attraction and infatuation are considered as love in this society, but I think it's all about lust there is no true feeling.
I am not a virgin either. And I don't expect that from my future wife too, because I will respect her past whatever it is If she is the victim of the situation then I will always stand with her. But I want her 100% loyalty towards the relationship after marriage.
I am marrying that girl for Patti's wish, but I like to give a fair chance to my relationship.
But there is another problem whenever my fiance (vidya) speaks with me it's all about money making. I feel like something is not right with her. And I also don't feel anything towards her. But now, we can't do anything right. It's all fate.
I don't know, when did I reach my home thinking all these. I got fresh up in my room and started my journey to Chennai on a flight. As my marriage is going to happen there only. And my friends will join me at my reception as Karthick is stuck up with some other work.
Then I reached the guesthouse where my parents are staying. After that, I got mingled with my family. Since it is dinner time, I joined my family to have my dinner.
*****
AT THE DINING ROOM
Everyone started to have our dinner. At that time Dharani started her interrogation.
"Amma, who is that uncle and aunty? From this week starts they are helping you guys so much," Dharani asked.
Mom and Dad started to explain her about the Manogar uncle's and Dad's flashback whom we have met in Palani. I do remember that I have seen them in my childhood. But I don't remember when and where as I was also small at that time. So, I also started to listen them.
In between the story, I asked Patti, "Do you still don't like our Manogar uncle and his family, Patti?" as she is so silent in the whole conversation.
"At this age, why I will be angry with that family? And I don't have a grudge against them. But I don't trust them now also," She told me.
" Why Patti? they are helping us so much," Dharani asked.
"I don't know, but I don't like them. So there is no place for trust," She replied.
"That is not the fair reason, Amma," Dad told.
"I know. That's why I am not saying anything to them for now," She replied and went off to her room as she finished her dinner.
After that Dad continued the story and I got stuck at the Kamiya's name.
Is this my same Kamiya?
As my mom heard that, she replied to my unasked question that is I will play with her in our childhood. Yeah, then she is my Kamiya.
Yes, she is my childhood sweetheart. Till now I remember her childhood face.
I will always fight with her because of my possessiveness. But I love her so much.
Did I tell you guys that I love her?..... No.. No, I loved her. If you guys remember that I told you all about my feeling right. There I mentioned that I didn't feel it with anybody except one right.
She is my exception. But after Dad transferred the business here, we didn't meet.
Since it is in my teenage period, I thought it is just infatuation and I will eventually forget her. But It didn't happen. I always remember her whenever I feel lonely.
And I know she will not be mine, so I tried to control my feeling. But I think now I am failing in that.
But I am going to be married in 3 days and I can't think of her like that. Though, I am going to do this marriage for the sake of my family. I can't cheat the Vidya, but what about my Kamiya. Fuck how can I call her my Kamiya?
I am going mad here. Why can't I forget her after fucking 15 years?
No, you have to do this, Arjun. That's all.
With all these thoughts, I don't know how the days and rituals went by? I was just smiling in all the rituals for Patti's sake.
Tomorrow is my marriage and she is going to be here. I know that because I accidentally eavesdropped when Sumathi aunty told my mom about her arrival.
And my friends are in the next room, I didn't share this with anybody as I think everyone will laugh at my madness.
At this time I have to think about Vidhya, but Kamiya is not leaving my mind.
What the fuck is happening to my mind? I was fine before 3 days. But now I am all fucked up.
I know I am cursing much, but I can't help with this.
Here I am going mad because of her, but she will not remember me itself. What a joke? Yeah, my life is like a joke to me now.
I am not feeling happy as I am going to meet her after 15 years and I am not feeling sad that the meeting is at my marriage.
But I am feeling nervous and I don't know why.
Oh my god, help me with this. Tomorrow is going to be a long day.
With all these thoughts I slept that day.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I think this is called telepathy, that is they both are feeling nervous at the same time.
We will see at their marriage...... Bye
