Sivaprakasam's PoV
It was a wedding where I happened to meet Arjun and his family again after that talk on the phone with Hariharan. I spoke to Anandhi and asked her to send Anika's photo, horoscope and biodata as soon as possible but she said that she will send it to me on an auspicious day that comes after a week. Dhanam is not comfortable yet in facing friends and relatives in functions like these, so she stayed home and I came to attend this function.
"How are you, uncle?" Arjun came and spoke to me. He is a nice, gentle man.
"I am good, maapillai. How are you?"
"I am good too, uncle. How is aunty?" he asked me.
"She is fine too. She is not yet comfortable meeting relatives. So she didn't come." I told him.
"Oh, so how is your manufacturing unit?"
"It's all good. No big changes." I told him while his mom and dad approached us.
"How are you, anna?" Yashodha asked me.
"I am good, ma. How are you?" I asked her back but all the while Hariharan didn't speak a word.
"How are you, Sammandhi?" I asked him to break that awkward silence.
