Chapter 8

“You are a fool to ignore her proposal,” Ravi yelled as soon as he heard what went down between Gautam and Vaiga.

Gautam looked calm as he poured a drink for himself. They were at Gautam's place. While Ravi had prodded Gautam throughout the car ride back home, Gautam only let him know what transpired once they were in the privacy of his penthouse in Chennai.

Sitting on a bean bag facing Gautam, Ravi spoke agitatedly, “She is right. Can you fault her on any grounds? Right now, you look like a coward before her.”

“I'm okay with that,” Gautam said softly, surprising Ravi. “I'd rather have her think that I don't love her or that I'm a coward to not acknowledge it.”

“Why do you want to taint yourself like that before the girl you love?” Ravi's voice was a mere whisper.

“I know my mother. She will never accept Vaiga unless she completely loses her identity and becomes my mere shadow. She has already lost a lot because of her family. I can't ask for more sacrifices from her. She deserves to live a life where she finds a life partner who cherishes her.”

His sincere words silenced Ravi though he wanted to argue.

“I know you have an opinion or two about this situation and how it centers around me taking some sort of action,” Ravi grunted in agreement. “But Ravi, I'll always have to keep finding a middle ground if I'm to marry Vaiga. Neither she nor my mother will be fully happy and I'll have to mediate continuously to keep peace at home. It will simply be a long-drawn-out battle.”

Ravi took in a deep breath and said, “I understand your point. But isn't Vaiga worth the hassle?”

“She is. And that's exactly why I'm letting her go. She deserves better. She is already born in a madcap family. I won't thrust another circus onto her,” Gautam said emphatically.

Ravi realized Gautam's love for his mother was overpowering his decision-making when it came to the matter of Vaiga. A little sacrifice here and there would solve the issue. But Gautam didn't want his love to turn out to be a burden for Vaiga, making her lose out on her own desires and wishes. His love was deep but he was drowning in a situation over which he didn't seem to have any control...
