Preface:
This seems to be a love story with usual filmy troubles with parents. It happens when somebody never in love starts writing love stories. Anyways, it is a good thing, we can certainly give it a happy ending making the characters of Pranathi and Sashi little bold and smart. Are you guys ready?
December 3rd, 2004. Hyderabad.
Pranathi wakes up like a spring and sits on the bed with her knees folded. It is just the alarm sound and she feels a time bomb is going to blast, whenever she hears that. It is 8:30 in the morning. She starts rubbing her eyes. She opens her eyes to find Surya sitting with her. She smiles at him, to get a smile in reply. Surya gives her a chocolate and says "Happy Birthday Akka". She is overjoyed with his brotherly love. She kisses him on his forehead and Surya runs out of her room. She feels the urge to call Sashi, Starts searching for her mobile mumbling 'poor Sashi, papam. He does not know my parents. He does not know it is impossible to have cake cutting at midnight. Was I rude at him?’ She rewinds the conversation she had at 0 hrs on her birthday. She finds her mobile under the pillow. She checks the list of received calls. ‘One hour twenty minutes!! Papam how many people might have tried calling!! Sashi is very caring and now it is Surya.’ She is about to press the call button, but stops as she hears her mom calling. She replies ’Coming amma..’ Then she runs into the hall, deleting the last entry in the received calls.
‘Happy Birthday ra, Chinni’ her dad wishes peeping his head out of newspaper. And he is sunk again into the newspaper. She walks into the kitchen where her mom stood cooking something, and asks ’Entamma?’. They exchange smiles filled with loads of affection. Her mother gives a polythene cover caressing Pranathi’s hair. Pranathi is all smiles seeing the new iPod pack in that cover. She looks into her mom’s eyes and thanks without saying a word. ’We both shared the price from our salaries. You got some courier, it is there on the TV'. Pranathi walks half the distance looking at her mom. When she reaches the TV, she finds a gift pack rolled in pearl white paper and decorated with red satin ribbon, having no note on it. She takes that into her room and closes the door behind her. She opens the pack to find 21 similar looking blood red roses, neatly tied and kept in white satin cloth with a note, which says, ‘Many Many Happy Returns of the day, Jaan.’ She smiles as tears rolled over her cheeks and settled on a lucky rose.
