Chapter 4

Likitha was holding Kalyani in her arms while Aravind looked at her with concern.

Aravind: Beta, don't be nervous. Rahul will treat you well. I know everything happened very quickly, but he will keep you and Kalyani happy.

Likitha smiled softly.

Likitha: I know, Appa. You and Bhai would have made the right decision for me.

Aravind smiled and gently touched her head.

Meanwhile, in her room, Poornima had just put Ram and Rudra to sleep.

She carefully covered the twins with their blankets when Veeresh entered the room after returning from the office.

Without saying anything, he walked behind her and wrapped his arms firmly around her.

Poornima smiled.

Poornima: Veer...

Veeresh made her turn toward him and kissed her.

Poornima kissed him back.

After they pulled away, she looked at him.

Poornima: How was your day?

Veeresh pulled her closer.

Veeresh: Hectic.

Poornima looked at him for a moment.

Poornima: Veer, this marriage is happening very quickly.

Veeresh removed his shirt and looked at her.

Veeresh: I know.

He sat on the bed beside her.

Veeresh: But we never looked for any alliance for Likhi. Rahul's family came forward, and we did a proper background check. After that, we spoke to Likhi and then took this decision.

Poornima nodded slowly.

Poornima: Okay.

Veeresh held her hand.

Veeresh: Don't worry.

Poornima looked at him and smiled.

Poornima: Okay, if you're confident about it.

Veeresh pulled her closer.

Veeresh: I am.

That night, after making sure the twins were sleeping peacefully, Veeresh and Poornima went to sleep beside each other.

Neither of them knew how much this hurried decision would change Likitha's life.
