The Conflict Unfolds

Andhra Vankalu, listen to me.

S. Anand Rock spoke firmly, “This is not the way to address Yuvraj’s father.” Bunk lowered his voice but kept his tone sharp.

“Then tell me, how should I talk to my father? Am I the one who owes him respect?” Yuvraj countered.

Fiaba sighed. “Jack, before you did all this, did you even think about family honor? At least about O? Before Mu, you had no ties with him. He isn’t your son. This isn’t a crime, Bak. Let’s talk this through.”

The Family’s Struggle

S. M. Raja remained silent.

“Still thinking? This situation has already ruined your reputation. What more could your silence cost you?” K. Mayo pressed.

“What did my father say? What will Jagan tell us tonight?”

“You still don’t understand, do you? They have already come together. If there are children in this house, it’s us. Sister, aren’t you on their side too? Isn’t this what you wanted?”

Shivraj gritted his teeth. “If you’re angry at me, show it to KCR. Don’t let others mess with your head.”

Dih took a deep breath. “Yes, all of this is happening because of you, isn’t it? Then you should have shown your anger earlier.”

Battle for Recognition

“Two Rajs, two Yuvrajs…”

Chhatra stood his ground in the party house. He wasn’t afraid to eliminate anyone who stood in his way.

“Vajrapati Sudhakar has only one son, doesn’t he?”

“Then what are you doing here with Shivraj and the others? And now you want to fight over words?”

“Yuvraj isn’t the issue here. Let’s settle this at home.”

“At home? What home? My father has already made sure we have no place there. Even when he wanted us, he didn’t truly want us.”

“What did I do to make you feel unwanted? What have I done now?”

“You don’t even realize what you did—to yourself, to us, uncle.”

“You gave us a child because of Kedara. What does that even mean? You agreed to be Avidi’s first wife, didn’t you, Pedananna?”

S. Kankara stepped forward. “You’re the one who separated us as you saw fit.”

“And you will come back to mend it? If you dream of being together, you must also talk about the separation. That’s why you have no one else to blame.”

“I know you’re the mastermind behind this entire staged drama.”

“You know nothing. Kedar’s pain, his wounds, the fallen dreams, the endless tears—he had to come here to replace his mother.”

The Price of Truth

“I’m not asking for wealth or property. I’m not asking for land. All I want is a small place in my father’s heart. A share in his life. That’s all. I’m tired. Please, let me have this.”

“How many times do I have to tell you? My father is not my father anymore.”

“If you want to correct the mistakes he made—”

“You’ll have to fight for it.”

Jeevan Raavamma’s voice carried through the tension. Rashmi, sensing the conflict, asked, “Are you all out of your minds?”

Jack clenched his fists. “Suhasini… my wife… she may be gone, but her presence still lingers. If I don’t act now, regret will consume me.”

“Suhasini. The woman I married, the love I vowed to protect. I thought I was sacrificing for money, but I never realized I was betraying trust and destroying lives.”

The Moment of Reckoning

“All the sins buried in the past are surfacing now.”

“I was blind. A selfish man. I wasted time and shattered trust. I was never as great as I thought I was.”

“But now I see the truth. And I’m ready to admit my mistakes.”

Silence fell over the room as Jack took a deep breath. “I hope Kanni’s family understands my pain. I beg for forgiveness.”

Vaijayanti wiped a tear away. “I know how much this weighs on you. But can we truly forgive this?”

“Tell me what you need. What do I need to do?”

“There has only ever been one wife in your life. But what about the rest? What about the ones left behind?”

Jack stood firm, knowing that the battle for truth was far from over.”
