Yesterday, we had gone to see a movie. Father does not know about that. Whenever Mohan asks me to get dressed mother will come and tell me that there is a lot of work. Then there is a fight between Mohan and mother.

Yesterday she did not say anything to Mohan. But when we returned he went again somewhere out to see his friend and mother started telling that you should not go out with him when you know that there is no money in the house etc. and she went on telling me that I have not brought anything and I am spending much. I didn't say anything to Mohan as it will upset him and he will go to fight with mother. When he came back father told him that after Jan `1, you must find a house for yourself. We are going to stay at Ayoor. Then Mohan said that we will also come to Ayoor. Father said, you come, I cannot throw you away. At this he said he cannot throw me away. Then father kept quiet. Mother jumped saying that you can come to Ayoor but not her. I just ignored her. He always tells me that she is irritated and hence behaves in such a manner. Yesterday when we were going for the movie I asked whether what they are saying about you. At this he said that no, all of us won't stay separately . I said that what will we do? He was just saying that we have to build a house, but we have to find a source from where we can get money. I told him that I cannot ask my father, because of his financial problems. He said you need not ask anything. Nobody is going to ask your opinion on this. You have come here as my wife and you have to stay with me. You don't have to worry about anything. Nobody is going to trouble your father as he is my father also. He said, we both are one and whatever happens we have to face it together. If you start  worrying then there will be problems for the child you are bearing etc. so it is best why do not think about it. He also added that if you are afraid. Both of us have not done anything wrong . Hence we must not feel guilty.

From your reaction as expressed in your letter, it appears to me that after marriage, no daughter could approach her parents with a request to ensure her well- being . However, I have to find a solution in this problem. I think I have a very  important role to play in bringing the two families together and to maintain cordial relationship for ever. With due regards and consideration for your love and affection, I have to seek your help and co-operation to settle this issue. For this purpose I request you to spare me the landed property in your name at Alwaye, which is not fetching any yield to you. I hope that being one of your children I am eligible to get one third of your assets belonging to my parents. All other movable and immovable properties may be given to my brothers and I am prepared to surrender all my rights over them. Daddy, if your reply to my request is favourable I hope that my father and all others in my family here will be quite satisfied with this offer and the present problem could be solved at no extra cost.

On the 25th of December Mohan's father had asked me to write to you, asking you to take me to Bombay for delivery, if all matters are not settled. Early in the morning he had asked me & told me that he will retaliate & if necessary he would also be ready for a divorce. Hence I wrote to daddy. Anyway Mohan has answered me that such things will not happen. He is telling me that your father is just threatening my father. I am not happy over here, daddy. I really wish if you would come & take me to Bombay. I don't know what to do. There is no one to whom I can tell my problems. In my desperation I told about these things to Mr. Iyer who is an officer coming from Bombay. Mummy, I hope you remember him. It was he who helped me to get my transfer. When I told him all these things, he told me that what your father says is right. Your father-in- law's demand is not just. He was telling me that since my in-laws have always been over here & have not seen the world, they become mean minded & don't know about the problems in Bombay. He was saying that 3 lakhs is a small amount for a business man. But for a salaried man, even if it is a highly decent job, even if he was made some investment, he will not be able to give such a big amount. He was  advising me to ask Mohan to stay separately if they are troubling me a lot. The problem is that both my in laws will keep on grumbling & complaining about my parents which no daughter will ever like to hear. These days Mohan comes home only at around 9'o clock & hence he does not hear all these things. One day I could not control myself & I told him. He told me to just forget about it since then atleast his father has stopped complaining loudly although he does that in whispers. But Mohan's mother has not stopped. She keeps on finding fault with me. She is the most silliest woman I have ever met. I have seen many uneducated women, but this one is a real specimen.

First of all it is more than two long years since your marriage to Jyothi. If I look back to the past, the first year went too fast with Jyothi's pregnancy, your fathers sickness and hospitalisation for one or two months etc. etc. There was an unhappiness and restlessness regarding your probation and other problems in your office. Mohan, in these days it is very difficult to remain one completely out of any problem in life through out. You said it in your letter that you have to face it alone. I do not know much about your problems that you have mentioned in your letter. But I feel the problems natural, artificial or deliberately created with selfish motivation. I can understand the ultimate unending sufferers directly are you and Jyothi only. That too are at your tender, innocent and simplest beginning of your married life. If your are saintly, can blame as God's wish or in the 21st scientific century you can reasonise it whether accidental or deliberately made. In my view it can be solved without much effort. For your own sake you must take initiative and root it out from the foundation however deep it may be. Anyway these are all natural or created, I heard that you have very successfully got rid of every thing in a matter of time.
