Chapter 3:
In Chennai, the Scene at Iyer’s house was totally different. Mrs. Iyer
was marching here and there in tension. Mihika explained her that Ishu akka
will come soon sit down and have coffee. But mother will always be a mother be
it anywhere. She was about to say something, that she saw her marching in,
Ishita..
Daughter of Mr. Vishwanathan Iyer and Mrs. Madhvi Iyer. She believes in
simple living and high thinking. Big beautiful eyes with even bigger specs,
beautiful slim body but she was wearing loose fitted salwar kameez, long
beautiful hairs tied with oil in it. Ordinary outside but a gem of person
inside. She walked in with a sad face so Amma walked to her and said Ishu what
happen why are you sad. Its ok there is always a second chance. Everybody knows
you have given your best shot. You never know what Murgan has in it for you. It
was when Ishita started laughing. Holding ears sorry Amma, I was just kidding I
got 780 in GMAT.
It was the happiest day for the Iyer family, they were middle class
people but Mr and Mrs Iyer made it a point to make both their daughter well educated.
By god’s grace both Ishita and Mihika were very bright student. Mihika was more
on naughty side and Ishita on sincere side. They all went to temple and amma
wished her daughter to get all happiness in life and she should never change for
anything or ANYBODY….
10 days later…. Ishita was pacing
here and there in the room .Today she had to get her confirmation for MBA in
University of California and she was
very nervous. All her efforts had to bear its fruits today. Amma came in excited
saying, Ishu Kanna letter from University should I open. She was already very
nervous so she asked Amma to open it. Expressions on Amma’s face changed and
that made her more afraid. She was about to cry when amma said only you can’t
act you got it from me. That’s when she realised it and burst out in tears but
they were of happiness. Finally she got selected for university…she is going to
do MBA in California…
She called up her Appa in office and informed about the same. Everybody
came home and celebrated by having her favourite payasam at home. She could see
the pride in her parents eyes. This was the best gift for them .As if the
struggle they put up to bring up her and Mihika was all successful. She also
cried with them .Amma Appa, I will make you proud. I will open an industry in
India which will provide employment to people.
This was my Ishita….love of my life….saying so Raman looked at her and
could see the amazement she had.. That how he could actually understand her
feeling even though he was not with her then..
