In the next hour, Ramanathan and his family members appeared at his doorsill.
Our Astrologer was meditating in the pooja room while Baskar was trying to convince his mother who was weeping. Meenah was also convincing her mother.
They didn’t expect the abrupt arrival of Ramanathan and his family members. Ramanathan, his wife, Jayasri Vidhya Kiran and Vijay Kiran entered the house and they were wearing sad look on their faces. They guessed that some dustup (an angry dispute) should have happened and above all, the twins and Jayasri were very much affected by the telephonic words uttered by our astrologer.
Baskar welcomed them and offered them seats in the Hall while Meenah supplied them with ice water.
Ramanathan opened the topic after drinking the glass of ice water. He asked Baskar,” May I talk with your father? Is he free now?”
Baskar nodded and went inside to convey his father the arrival of in-laws.
Our Astrologer emerged as an innocent man as if nothing had happened. In his usual enthusiastic tone he welcomed them and occupied a seat in front of them.
Meenah ordered for collation (a light informal meal) items from Sangeetha Bhavan to serve the guests.
“May I know what has made you to upset us?” Ramanathan opened the topic.
Our Astrologer was in a position to answer to his question. Yes he was answerable to him.
