Narayana also laughed at that and said, “The most important thing in life is money. Without it, living is hard. Why go far — I don’t think your aunt and brother will give you a share in the property after I die.”
As Narayana was speaking, Vivek looked into his face. There was some unknown light gleaming in Narayana’s eyes.
Just then, a nurse came in and said, “The doctor is coming for rounds. Please wait outside.”
With that, Vivek came out and sat on a chair in the hall, thinking about what Narayana had said.
“Vivek,” came a voice. He looked up to see his aunt Rama standing in front of him.
“How is Daddy?” she asked anxiously.
“He’s doing fine, aunty.”
“I’ll stay here. But if you have any work, go take care of it,” she said as she sat down.
Vivek went home, got ready, and went to the office. A clerk named Swamy came up and hesitantly asked, “Sir, how is Nanna?” while arranging the table.
“He’s fine, but call Geetha,” Vivek said. “She didn’t come today, sir.” “Alright, you can go,” he said, and picked up his phone to call Geetha. It rang for a long time and then stopped.
Because he had been at the hospital for three days, he started looking into the pending work. After evening fell, Vivek went to the hospital.
