Chapter 23

• Shravya pov,
• I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep to the appearance of others and cried inwardly. It has been a month since I lost my father. After learning about my father's health condition, I controlled my emotions and got ready to go to hospital. As I was getting ready, ratan got a call on his cellphone from ramesh uncle saying that my father has left this world. My father would have been with me for even a few more months if I had probably not consented to the marriage. Maybe my father would have lived with me for even a few more months if I hadn’t agreed to rahul plan. Perhaps if I had not sunk into the sadness of my love, if I had noticed a bit of my father’s pain, then I would have been with my father as a comfort and strength in his most painful days. When I think all this, it only seems that I had failed as a daughter. I lost my father who was everything to me and stood alone. I had lost my father, who is my everything. Ratan did all the funeral rites as son-in-law of my father. He did not express his anger at me in that situation. He took care of everything which I have to take care. His mother was with me and comforted me, regardless of all the anger that she hold on me. I opened my eyes and sat up in the bed when I heard mami voice and pat on my shoulder.
• “Someone called ramesh has come to see you. He said that he want to talk you about your father company. He is waiting in the hall for you.”
