Willing Captive (I gave it a Harlequin like title)☺️
Part 147
Saturday Morning began with text from Sam, she must have texted when she woke up to feed Lasya at 4:45 AM, Appa saw it when he woke at 5:15... he sat back down on the bed
"Can we come by to talk Uncle?' she had asked POLITELY
Ofcourse she will, why wont she? She gave the man a week, not one word... now she is entitled to know...
Appa NOT ready to make a decision, not ready to think that topic a minute more than necessary, was somehow being cornered...
he voluntarily wanted to meet R&B and that visit instead of cheering him had intimidated him tremendously... there was something about the boy's eyes that was very unsettling
He was polite and respectful but somehow Appa got the feeling he would do whatever HE wanted at the end of the day
He nudged Amma" Innum enna tookam?' (Why are u still asleep?")
MENN!! Whatever their age... if they are awake wife should be too
Amma stirred and groaned irritated "Decoction irukku poi coffee pottu kudingo" (go make ur own coffee)
Appa: Ezhundru rendu perukum podren (I will make for both of us get up now)
Amma groaned "7th chapter mudikka it took me until 1 AM"
"OK sleep for 10 minutes" HE ALLOWED
Amma was awake... she lay there
"Ennachu?" she asked
"Samyukta wants to come" Appa blurted
Ofcourse there was something wrong Amma knew it
"Hmmm"
"Theirs and the SEVEN I SENT TO ALL SAY IT MATCHES 92-98%" Amma said firmly
"Hmmm" "I guess the jyotish dont care for caste or social status or language, they just match" (appa aired his worries)
"They are a boy and a girl, and they seem to be made for each other" Amma said staring at the ceiling
Appa lay down beside her and stared at the exact same fan blade...
"Padichirkaan" (he is educated) " Paaka raja madiri irukaan" (so so handsome) kollai panam" (SO SO WEALTHY) "Namba pasanga moonum irunda kaiyla pidikka mudiyadu"
(Iyer boys that have all three will have a f----g attitude) "Varan vanda kooda melayum keezhyum paapa 8 darava" (Even if we happen to get an alliance like that from a match making site the parents wont give us the time of the day)
"They will rather marry their son to Rajnikanth's daughter than OUR daughter" Amma said sadly. "Our daughter will never find all the above in an Iyer boy. Even if she does they wont give her a second look...
The Bhallas are CHASING us ...begging us to get her married to their son, and WE are acting like exactly how WE WOULD HAVE BEEN TREATED BY SUCH AN IYER GROOM'S FAMILY"
Appa breathed deeply.
"Namba oorla ivlav padicha industrialist aathu paiyyan pannipaana ivala? (Will someone like R&B marry our daughter in Tamil Nadu?) "Chance ey ille"
(Not in this lifetime) If they lived in Nungambakkam or Poes Garden or Adyar will they even talk to us?" Amma asked
"EVERYTHING is just right... the looks the education... exponentially wealthy, he will never ask her for a dime... u can even clear it up before the wedding"
"I asked, he said he makes $3-5M a YEAR" Appa admitted honestly
"She makes 1% of that, or less"
"The biggest black spot is Ranjan" Amma said honestly
Appa took another deep breath
"Avarum decent aa irukaar NAMBA KITTA, oru misbehavior ille, not one inappropriate behavior with us"
"She will eventually marry whoever we force her into marrying, but anda kozhandai kannula enn ennikkum anda yekkam irukkum ada NAANUM NEENGALUM anubhavikkanum"
(There will forever be a longing in her eyes that YOU and I will have to experience & suffer through the rest of our life) Amma broke down
Appa patted her shoulder😭
"She has not given us ONE reason to be angry with her. Today she is telling us about him, tomorrow if she starts meeting him secretly, avaloda kooda kooda poyindripela will u be escorting her everywhere to see what she does?"
"She is like fire, nobody can touch her casually👏 they will burn, if she has allowed herself to be drawn to him then she must have seen something in him"☺️
Amma didnt elaborate on what she saw on her daughter's face and skin the last couple months, when ever she returned from his house...bearing scars of love making😳
"Yes he has been in relationships, if he is a moradan (rough) with her" Amma stopped😭
Appa got up unable to listen to his wife go to forbidden territory...😆
"Apdiyum avanukku yengara na? Edo irukku avan kitta"
(If she still yearns for his touch even tho he may be rough with her, that means he must have something)☺️
Appa listened without looking, it made him more angry his daughter would crave for "such" a guy...
"Punjabi boys are not like Iyer boys" Amma said sniggering😆😈
"NO" Appa said disgusted😡
"Oorla manusha kitta enna solluve" (What will u tell the relatives)
"Aaathula kalyanam vaango solluven" (There is a wedding at home, please attend) Amma said getting up purposefully👏
Appa looked on unconvinced
Amma had shut herself in the bathroom, he paced the bedroom, his daughter opened the balcony door and stood outside
She would lay in bed until 11 if his wife let her... but here she was up... pacing the balcony
She saw him and began to smile and didnt... afraid
He had pushed her away... she was afraid to say anything to him... she would fight over the main paper or supplement until he started buying Hindu
"Hindu is very dry Pa, I love the Supplement in HT so juicy full of gossip" she would giggle
"Yaaru yaarai vitta idu periya vishayama?" (Who left who is that such big news?)😆
"Ofcourse it is Pa, then only we will know WHO WILL RUN AWAY WITH WHO" she will argue logically🤣
Appa and Ponnu will sit side by side sharing articles and laughing, talking about
Modi BJP budget, Congress... Monetary Policy... Amma will not get one section of the paper...👏😆
"Toongaleya?" he asked her😲
"Umm ille... Pa" she said softly embarrassed
He knew if she was married and was visiting with him she would not step out of the room until Noon...
or if she was visiting by herself, she wouldnt stay the night, he would pick her up even if it was 2 AM
Something told him R&B will not share Ishita like Bala shared Vandita generously.. with them..
she would not visit frequently nor would she stay when she did..he was not a good Iyer boy, he was a devil.
Iyer boys gave, this one will TAKE... he had TAKEN her already.. the weekend morning newspaper discussions will happen with him...
R&B wont let her win easily like he did... she wont DEMAND to win either...
she will let him dominate and rule, his smart feisty daughter was a willing captive?☺️
By talking barely 1% of what she did he had her completely in his hold... wonder how he did that..
"Why this yekkam? why should she yearn for him so much?' She paces the balcony 😭
like she waits for a flight or waits to leave for the airport all packed... waits for the cab?"
That made him angry all over again..😡
