Vinodh is a Technical lead in a leading software services firm.He got married to Sheela a year back.And their relationship and marriage was purely arranged by both of their parents.Sheela is also a software professional.
Their married life was happy and streamlined for six months.Later it did not continue smoothly.
Saran.He is a very close friend of Sheela.And they are very close from their college days.Both of them joined the same firm after their college as well.
Vinodh said "Ok.Let him be your friend or wat ever,all these days.Now you got married and why do you need a male friend when am there for you."
She said " Vinodh.I clearly told you about him,before our marriage.He is my close friend and i cant be without him.
They were very close, that they shared the same room when they were posted abroad from their firm.They shared friendship and love.
Vinodh was not very clear on Sheela's thoughts so he stoped asked anything about him and acted normal for sometime.
Saran used come to visit Sheela often.And their friendship continued.
Vinodh happened to read some of Sheela's personal emails and letters to Saran.It was highly personal.It had all the open expressions of love for one another.But Sheela shows the same love and affection to Vinodh.
Vinodh was confused.
Later one day he took Sheela to beach shore.They sat there.It was a fullmoon day.The cool breeze planed Sheela's hair.She looked beautiful on the moon light as she adjusted the thin hair along her ears.
"Sheela...hmm..when u like Saran so much.Why you didnt marry him ? " asked Vinodh.
Sheela starred at Vinodh.
Beach waves voiced.
She spoke."Vinodh.Are u still not happi with our friendship"
Vinodh said "illa.Friendship naa fine.But u are really close with him.Athan..i cant...i cant digenst..why u didnt marry him."
She said "Vinodh.hmm yeah am very close with him.but i cant marry him..Marriage is different"
Vinodh cant control and shouted....
"What different.i read all your emails to him..u discuss everything thing with him..every moment in your life..those things which you cant discuss to a male.Then why the hell u married me and not him"
Sheela stood up and said.
"Vinodh.You have to understand this,
Saran is my friend and yes i have lots of love and affection on him.
And i have the same love and affection on you as well.
I cant lead a married life with Saran.Becos...becoz ours is a non-sexual relationship.Some kind of ..kind of "Romantic Friendship"
Me or him have never felt that feeling among us.Puriyutha.Please try to understand.And please dont read my personal emails.And i love u so so much da..U mean so much to me.."
She left the place.Vinodh sat there looking at the moon astoundingly.
