After two days of entrance exams, Jyoti went to visit Prakruth. She had asked her father to send car for her. When she arrived at Prakruth's farm house, it was deserted. She wandered around the house, a small girl was playing with rabbits.
”Hi baby” said Jyoti.
”Who are you?” asked Chilly.
”I'm Jyoti, I'd like to meet Prakruth. Can you tell me where he's??”
”Why what's the matter?” asked Chilly.
”Just like that, a casual meeting” shrugged Jyoti.
”Where are you from?”
”From Mangalore, I'm Prakruth's Junior”
”For casual visit, you came all the way from Mangalore???” asked Chilly.
”Chanchala whom are you troubling??” asked Prasad.
”I'm not troubling, she's Jyoti. She wants to meet Prakruth. I'm just gathering information” grinned Chilly.
”Ma'am, Prakruth Sir will come in few minutes. Please come inside” invited Prasad.
Jyoti followed him, she was awestruck by the interiors of the house. Thick wooden door with elephants carved on it opened up to uncover a square area with 8 wooden pillars which were again artistic. The floor between 8 pillars was two feet lower and ceiling open. There were beautiful flowers swaying in air from hanging pots. The furniture and wall paintings were of traditional style. There was no TV, Music system or modern lighting. Everything was unique and soothing. On one side was stairs to the next floor. When Jyoti was admiring the house, a maid brought a glass of fresh lime juice.
”Thanks” said Jyoti and sat on the wooden couch with fluffy sofa.
”Hey Jyoti, what a pleasant surprise?” asked Prakruth who walked in the main door.
She gasped and stood up.
”Sorry did I scare you??” asked Prakruth.
”No, I was occupied by the house looks. So I was little shocked” said Jyoti.
”Ok enjoy the juice. I'll fresh up” said Prakruth and went in.
He came back in 10 minutes, maid brought a juice glass to him too.
”So how was entrance exam?” asked Prakruth.
”Good. Results are after a month” said Jyoti.
”What are your plans for future?”
”I want to be a doctor”
”Following your love huh???” winked Prakruth.
”You mean Thrishul is also interested in medicine???” asked Jyoti.
”Yeah, he's seriously trying”
”I didn't know, I wasn't concentrating on him. He's serious about Punya” she sighed.
”So you gave up your love? You know Punya loves me and there's no way she'll think about him. So never give up” said Prakruth.
”Let future decide about it. I can't discuss that right now”
”Ok.... But remember I'm always there for you”
”I know senior. You're like my elder brother. Now I want to know truth”
”When have I lied to you?”
”I'll know by the end of the conversation. What's going on your life??”
”Everything is fine. Farm is running well, studies - next month is my second semester exams...”
”I didn't ask about them, what's happening in your love life?”
”We're fine. Did she tell you anything? We didn't fight too”
