Village Love

Chapter 5

Gowri POV.

I closed my eyes tightly with my hands I was waiting to feel pain on my body but nothing came. After some time I heard my grandpa called me with concern. I moved my hands from my face only to notice that the bullet bike stood a few inches away from. I breathed in relief. Then only I saw the bicker the same man who I saw yesterday before closing my eyes.

He was wearing a dhoti and shirt. He looks more handsome at this age. I have not seen a man like him in Bangalore also. He had brown skin not fair. His eyes held a dangerous and painful.

We both kept looking at each other he didn't say anything till now. He turned his head away from me. Then only I remember I had not covered my dupatta as it fell somewhere while running. He is now feeling discomfort to look at me but a few minutes back he was drooling over me.

Gowri- I am sorry sir.

I said and ran to the field, to my grandparents. Grandma was having my dupatta I wore it. I didn't look back I was feeling disgusting of that guy how can he act innocent after doing all. i***t fellow.

We went back in the late afternoon as I was hungry and tired due to working in fields. I learned a few things from my grandparents.

After having lunch prepared by me it's rice with rasam along with potato Curry. Grandparents praised my cooking. We all took a nap.

In the evening I went to the market with Grandma to bring some groceries. We thought it's better to walk in the evening. So on the way, grandma introduced me to her friends.

I purchased all the necessary items I needed. Grandma took all the items for the home.

I was enjoying my holidays like this. Don't know how the time fled away. Tomorrow is the first day of my work. I am going to attend my dream job. It was a prepared night only I choose the saree to wear and all accessories.

In the morning I woke up early and did some meditation. Prepared for my day. As usual, I prepared coffee for everyone. All three lady's helped in breakfast as everyone had there work.

Papa said to me to take scooty as buses are not on time. I can't wait. It's a horrible thing which I hate the most. So I agreed with understanding the village public facility well.

I took out the scooty and rode to the destination as my papa and showed me earlier. I went to college all were giving me a curious look.

I directly went to the principal cabin and gave my appointment letter. He said I should get signed from the head sarpanch of the village.

Gowri- but sir it's related to the government why should I take signed by sarpanch.

Principal- it's because he is the head of the village. Even he had my appointment with the government after voting. So you should confirm with him.

I got totally irritated about this topic I was not knowing. If I had known first only I had done it on my holiday. I asked from the passers-by the way to sarpanch home.

I drove fast it's already 10 now I hope he is at home.

After reaching there and confirm with a villager.

Gowri- Anna (bro) is this village head sarpanch's house.

Villager- yes child.

I went into the gate there was a big open field I drove the scooty at the large garden. All the vehicles were parked in the corner so I also did the same.

I went and left my footwear in the row and ranged the bell though the door was wide open. A lady in the late 45's came out and gave a look.

Gowri- Namaste amma is this the village head sarpanch's house.

Lady- yes ma.

Gowri- can I meet the sarpanch I have work with him.

Lady- first you come inside ma. Then you tell me about your work.

I lady guided me away I quietly followed her like a lost puppy.

Lady- take seat ma.

I sat down on a lavish sofa in a big living room with astonishing furniture. I was looking at my surroundings and forgot about the lady.

Lady- what shall I bring you to have.

Gowri- maji I don't want anything can you please call the sarpanch I need signed in my appointment letter and go back to work.

Lady- I think you are really in a hurry wait I will call baba (father).

I was looking around the house. I think they are rich why not, after all, they are the head of the village.

I heard the footsteps only to notice that three men are coming, but two were familiar. The front one was in the late 60's I think he is sarpanch.

He came and sat on the big sofa with authority his aura told strength and authority radiating. I stood from my seat to give respect. He just nodded at me I really felt scared I should have called papa or Grandpa.

Sarpanch- what's the matter??

Gowri- I need your signature in this appointment letter, sir.

With a stammer and shacking hand, I gave him a letter. No one talked only stood and watching us like some interesting movie is going on.

The sarpanch motioned me to seat and asked to have something.

Lady- I enquired her but she refused.

Sarpanch- do have something. Our culture doesn't let outsiders go without having anything.

Gowri- can I get a glass of water.

Lady- ok.

Soon the lady came back and gave me water I took it with trembling hands and drank with one go.

Sarpanch- so you're the new college teacher.

Gowri- yes sir.

Sarpanch- what's your parent's name?

Gowri- Uma and Mahesh.

All were shocked on there face as I said some secret way for Kohinoor diamond.

Lady- what's your full name ma?

Gowri- maji I am Gowri Mahesh, daughter of Uma and Mahesh. Granddaughter of Savitha and Nagaraj.

I gave my full bio-data to her.

Sarpanch- so your our Mahesh's daughter.

Gowri- yes I am and Gowri's papa is Mahesh.

I like my own identity. I don't want to use my parent’s or grandparents name to be known by others. So only I said like that. Suddenly the lady screamed in happiness.

Lady- sita, and Laxmi come here to see who is here

Omg, what she is doing? What happened to her all of a sudden?
