Chapter 66: chapter 66

THE SILENT LOVE ...Chapter 65 :After completing all the marriage rituals, Swetha along with Gautham, Archana, Krishna Kumar and Mahalaxmi, headed towards their house. Though Swetha’S heart was swirling with different emotions due to the encounters she had with Sreekar and Lalitha.On one hand, Sreekar’s intimacy was confusing her with his actions, whereas on the other side Lalitha’s words were piercing her heart for each and every second. She kept all her emotions beneath the bottom of her heart, not willing to spoil Gautham’s great moments.Once they reached the house, Swetha ran into the home and returned with the plate holding the Arti in the red water. She welcomed them with Arti and demanded money from his brother, which is the right of the sisters to demand money on their brother’s  wedding day. Gautham handed her a box that contained gold earrings of her taste. Swetha jumped in joy and welcomed them inside asking them to keep the right leg initially.Once everyone got settled in the living room, Rasi reached Swetha and informed about Samyuktha.“Sweths! Samyuktha asked to convey her apologies not informing about her departure. My Sreekar brother suddenly left the marriage along with Samyuktha and Lalitha as he received a call from his office”, informed Rasi.Swetha gaped at her in astonishment and queried,”What? We hardly knew each other but still she conveyed the message?”.Rasi smiled at her and while pinching her cheek, she replied,“Because she liked you the moment she saw you. She is from a wealthy family but never showed her pride. She is a reserved person and interacts only with a few people whom she feels comfortable with. She liked you very much. She wants to meet you again. Who doesn’t like this innocent beautiful lady?”.Swetha blushed with her words and remembering Lalitha, she immediately looked at Rasi and queried,“Who is the other lady with your brother? She looks very classy and modern. Is she a model from any fashion designers?”.“Hahaha! No, she is not any model but from a wealthy family. Actually my brother’s parents were planning to get them married. Once my brother gives the green signal, they both will get married. It was planned from their childhood”, replied Rasi.By hearing those words, Swetha felt like a heavy weight was placed on her heart. She couldn’t understand why that news was disturbing her. But she forced a smile on her face and nodded her head in acknowledgement, unable to utter a single word.“Children! Go and take a rest. Tomorrow we need to get up early to perform the Satyanarayana Vratham . Go and sleep. Rasi, Swetha! Both go and take rest”, suggested Mahalakshmi.Rasi informed Swetha that she will go to her house and asked Swetha to take rest. Swetha returned to her room and changed into comfortable clothes and lay flat on the bed on her back watching the ceiling.Sreekar’s intimate moment was not leaving her mind and the softness of his lips was still lingering on her. However she tried to ignore those feelings, she was reminded with his touch and the way his fingers played on her waist raised the flame inside her. She was unable to acknowledge the foreign feelings that were flowing in her. The only question that was pestering her was why did she allow him to be so intimate with her when she never allowed any other man to come near her from the time she hit puberty.Drowning in all the thoughts that were going in her mind, she slept late at night and was awakened by the knock on her door. She rose to her feet and went to open the door and was wished by her mother, Sangeetha.“Swetha! Are you still sleeping? Go and get ready. We need to arrange everything for the Vratham and help your sister in law to get ready”, stated Sangeetha.“Yes mother. I will be there in half an hour”, and rushed towards the wash room to get ready.After getting ready with a beautiful saree, Swetha headed towards her sister in law's room and saw her struggling with her saree. Swetha gave a wide smile to Archana and entered the room while wishing her.“Sister in law! Good morning. Are you having a hard time in draping the saree?”, teased Swetha.“Goodmorning, Swetha! Hmm, last night you teased my  brother and now you are taking the chance of teasing me, taunted Archana, while smiling at her.“Hahaha! It was just for fun, not to offend  anyone. I am very sorry if you got hurt with my actions. Being a sister in law, I  thought of teasing my brother in law which is a lifetime chance as we won’t get scolded at the time of marriage. Did my Kamal brother in law get offended for my actions”, queried Swetha, while her voice tinged with bitterness.*****Hai readers, I am very sorry for the delay in updating the series.
