31. Deception?
Mohini didn't have any kids yet. In the initial year of marriage, both had sex without using any protection. Still, Mohini didn't get pregnant. When both checked with a doctor, it was found that Vishwanath was infertile. They decided to take all possible treatments and just told everyone that, yet they are not planning for kids so early.
Initially, Vishwanath went for different treatments for his infertility, however, it was not successful. The doctor found that his testicles were injured, and it was irreparable. He remembered one incident in his childhood when he got injured while playing cricket and that may have caused damage to his testicles as the hard cricket ball had hit him on his genitals.
Doctors at that time had told his parents that there is a possibility that Vishwanath might not become a father. His parents kept this fact hidden from him as well as from others. However, he was getting erections sometimes as other fertile men would get.
When Maya found out this truth, she got a feeling that she had been deceived.
In night, sometimes Maya would sit on a chair in her home for hours looking at ceiling and Tarini would observe her. The changes of expressions on Tarini’s face during that time were not at all good. If a person would watch it even for 2 minutes, he would not watch it again and leave the place!
