“What an arch liar your father is! You are also equal in telling lies like your family members.” Shyamala made fun of him. .

“I don’t think that your mother will be so credulous to believe this tale.”

“I wonder how my father predicted about you.”

“Predicted?”

“Yes, Shyamala. He warned me not to reveal this secret to you but you know that I am a sieve, divulged the secret. “

“Didn’t your mother quarrel with your father for hiding this secret?”

“Yes, you are right; she quarreled with my father today morning also. But my father convinced her by saying:” When we do not have a cordial relationship with that family, how can I ask you to bring her up? We have already a female child, Meenah and how it is possible to bring them up and get them married? Are we financially sound to look after the child? Sivasankar was childless and when I told him my situation, he agreed with it and began to bring her up like his own daughter.”

Shyamala was gazing at Baskar and the trace of suspicion was found in her eyes. “It seems to be reliable what you say partly but I feel some doubt whether your words are true or fake.” Shyamala suspected Baskar.

Baskar smiled and said to her:” It’s not my duty to prove my statements. It is not my concern whether you believe me or not. It doesn’t matter whether you have faith in my words or false opinion on me. I doubt whether all the girls in the world are similar to your nature. You see, Ladies are the cause for the tiff, quarrel, battle and even international war. I am going there.” Baskar paced and then hastened to reach the hall where his parents were conversing with Sivasankar.
