Chapter 29: chapter 29

Sandhya conveyed about the situation to her parents and they were relieved. Surya did the same and Meenaskhi was at peace now. Shashikala understood Sandhya’s sacrifice and the respect for her grew immensely.Ravi wanted Rona to stay with her parents for a while but she wanted to stay with him. It had almost been a week and Maggie was getting better everyday. The Doctors permitted her to get discharged. Everyone started their journey to India.Arun and his manager, Prasad, were waiting outside the airport. Arun was cautiously eying at the arrival gate. He had his own plans in his mind. After a while, Surya and his family came out of the airport. Prasad watched him and screamed, “Sir, it’s Surya!”Arun was keenly watching him.He looked at Surya smiling. There was Ravi and Rona. He looked at an older woman carrying a little girl. He couldn’t control looking at Surya being ecstatic.Prasad explained Surya’s relations to Arun. “Where is his wife? I want to see her!” said Arun.“I couldn’t find her, Sir,” Prasad said.Meanwhile, Surya halted and was searching for Sandhya in his surroundings. Arun was observing him. Surya walked back and found Sandhya staring at her surroundings. Surya walked to her and she held his hand. Surya gripped her hand and both of them started walking out, smiling.Prasad looked at them and said, “Sir, she is Surya's wife, Sandhya rani!”Arun was eying her without blinking, looked at them, concentrated, as they left.Prasad looked at his boss and moved him, “Boss, what happened?”Arun came back to senses.“She is gorgeous! Who the hell cares if she is a widow? Who the hell on Earth will reject her? He seemed tense when he couldn’t find her for a couple of seconds. She is his weakness! I will separate them! I want to feel the fear in his eyes when he misses her! He has to face the worst! That is when I will triumph!” screamed Arun.Everyone was waiting for Surya and the others at the bungalow. Shashikala offered Aarthi to them before they walked in, hugged Sandhya, and held Maggie in her arms. She apologized to Sandhya heartfully for her behavior. Sandhya was happy about it. Meenakshi looked at them with joy in her eyes. Sandhya’s parents reached the place. They hugged Maggie and kissed her. They thanked Surya for everything that he had done.After lunch Krishnarao asked Meenakshi, “It would be great if you send my daughter and Maggi to our home for a couple of days!”Meenakshi smiled and agreed to it. Sandhya doubted if Surya would come as Rona was there and said, “Father, Surya is busy all the time and he wouldn’t feel comfortable at our home!”“No, dear. Let me ask him. He will not deny it,” explained Krishna rao.“No, father. I can’t bear if he faces any problems there,” she said.He understood her intention and said, “Okay, dear. Ask him yourself. We’d be extremely happy if he comes. I’ll take a leave then. You are coming tomorrow with Maggie, right? Even Aunt is coming with us.” She nodded her head and started looking for Surya but she couldn’t find him. Ravi and Rona didn’t know where he was. Sandhya put Maggie to sleep and waited for him.Surya got to know Arun’s intentions. His heart was sensing something wrong. He was worried that Arun might be creating trouble for his family. He made the necessary arrangements to spy on Arun and was gathering information from time to time. He reached home and Sandhya conveyed the matter to him. He permitted her to go, making sure of her safety and he promised her that he would come and meet her.Sandhya fell asleep. Surya asked Ravi to meet him on the lawn. Surya explained everything to Ravi.Ravi was worried and Surya said, “His aim is not to kill me, it is to make me suffer by affecting something that’s vital to me! I want to know his target. And I have arranged secret security for our family. We have to be careful at every moment. Sandhya doesn't know any of this and she wants to go home tomorrow. I can’t say no to her! She will be worried about me if she gets to know about Arun. We have to take care of the problem. Arun must be finished by the time Sandhya returns! We have to defeat him!” said Surya, firmly.
