Silence followed in the car, amrita sees that her aunt was trying hard to control her emotions. Amrita’s uncle and dad spoke different topics to divert her aunt’s mind. Amrita’s cousin renu was also sad, doesn’t utter a word. Amrita didn’t know what to do, sadness jumped in her also, but she simply answers her dad’s words.

They reached the temple, the time came, they worshipped the Amman with faith in her. Amrita’s uncle was removing his specs and cried silently. But her aunt burst out loudly, asking god, why she had done injustice to her, by taking her son. Amrita’s cousin renu prayed silently, it was tough for her. On one side renu missed her brother badly and on another side, her parents were in utmost sadness.

And amrita’s aunt was friendly in nature towards their children. Amrita’s cousins were honest and they were responsible too. Is anybody have the guts to console her? 

The accidental death, cannot be consoled. But life has to move on. It sometimes had an unbearable truth, to test an ultimate faith, but trust in God and faith in ourselves always matters a lot.

Gossips chained in our lives, and cursing vedha also happens.

Amrita’s aunt named vedha was a very generous person. Vedha married her own aunt’s son. Amrita’s uncle worked in Australia, so they both moved there after marriage.

They married in the late ’80s. vedha was a strong woman with a lot of positivity in her. she lonely managed her two pregnancies with a lot of courage in a new country. As her husband worked as a radio jockey in an English line in Australia, he had some work all through the day.

Vedha is a person with simplicity as well as an intelligent lady. She had a degree, so she started taking tuition for kids. She earned and supported her family in all ways. As the family in India, expects gifts from a foreign country, she also satisfies it. Vedha used to send a lot of chocolates, dresses, and other requested items to all their relations.

Most importantly, vedha was a good caretaker with a lot of helping mind. She allowed the relatives to stay in their house with a lot of love, who went there in search of jobs. Those relatives are well economically settled now. she was very happy about it.

Vedha is such a good soul in her heart and mind. Nowadays, it is rare to find such people. It is a questionable thing, why these happened in vedhas life ?? tears enrolled in amrita’s father’s eyes.

So, how it happened to amrita’s cousin Rana Pratap??

Everything in the vedha’s house was quite normal. They happily went shopping, one week ahead of Diwali. They built their dream house in their native town. Their house-warming function is nearer and they all planned to visit India from Australia after Diwali.

One fine day, like every morning sun, burst its rays, amrita’s cousin Rana Pratap was getting ready to jog. And insisted her mother to don’t mob the floor. I will come and do it for you, he uttered.

After few hours a phone ringed, amrita’s uncle picked a call, he felt speechless. After few seconds, he was informing, we were there in few minutes. Vedha sees his face and continuously asking what had happened. He said nothing, but holding her arms, he guided her to the place.

The place crowded and police enquiring there. Vedha guessed something had happened to her son, as he was only out from home in the early morning. Her heart beats faster, amrita’s uncle approached the police.

They showed a black sheet wrapped in the gigantic, handsome body of Rana Pratap. And asked amrita’s uncle to confirm that it was their son. Vedha stands like a statue, she doesn’t believe it. She felt like a dream and had a stunning appearance.

Amrita’s uncle holds her arms tightly. And suddenly, his mind blinks to confirm that the lying-down guy was Rana Pratap. If his emotions bloom, many formalities in the country, to regain a dead body of Rana Pratap. Amrita’s uncle slowly turns to do the next formalities like a robot.

And, the very next day, there was huge rain there, vedha cried loudly and said if it rained yesterday, my son would not go out for jogging. Relatives around her took pity on vedha’s sadness. The things around Rana Pratap were ended, that he had fallen down from a huge apartment terrace. Nobody believes that Rana Pratap had done suicide and the reason was not properly known.

This was Rana Pratap’s story said by amrita’s uncle bit by bit. Nobody in the house did not have the guts to dig inside over Rana Pratap’s death. He was gone far away from us, was the last bitter truth.

They reached amrita’s native town from the airport. Amrita’s aunt cried and all relatives around her started to console her. She tried to be calm.
