Adultery My wife, why did she betray me (completed)

[manas]

Even though this was Meera reminiscing on past events I wrote it as if it was a description of what had happened with each person's intention and thinking so as to have a clear understanding of their character. A bit of literary license there. 

1.) Prabu's marriage would have happened very very soon after his father had discovered his son was having an affair with a married woman when he saw them in the old abandoned temple. The marriage would have been simple and within close relatives. He would have left with his new bride soon after that. He was in no position to inform Meera about this. Meera would have wondered why Prabu had stopped visting her and news of his marriage would have either reached her ears or she would have found out through discreet enquiries. She would have asked her husband just to know if he had an inkling on what and why that had happened. 

2.) Prabu's father told Saravana in the first story that if Prabu ever met with his wife again his (Prabu's father's) cut off head would be on a stake in front of the temple. Therefore Prabu's father would have scolded him for his terrible behaviour. Prabu also says his father cast aspersions on the chastity of his own mother when he asked did she really beget him (Prabu) through conjugal relationship with him (father).  The original author also indicated that Prabu was genuinely remorseful that he had hurt Saravana and that he had found out and seen Meera having an affair with him. The family would have forced Prabu to marry for fear of him continuing this type of behaviour elsewhere if he still remained a bachelor.

These are all interpretations from what the original author had written in the first story. I am moving forward with my own interpretation in this story but trying to be as faithful to the original author in the behaviour of the main characters in the original story.

Dear game40it,

I, indeed, never expected any reply from you. Still, it is a pleasure and definitely complement. To tell truth, my questions were aimed at the readers and were interested in their views. Anyway, thanks again.

I  neither accept nor reject your views. My quest for logical answers will continue. I will try to create logical pictures of the main three characters in my successive posts. I will start with Prabhu followed by Meera. I may escape Saravana. I will try my best to hold my emotions and be within the periphery of the story already revealed. Though, logical interpolation and extrapolation will be there.

You have build up the story based on another story. The original author had given ample scope for imagination. You have painstakingly taken task of not only elaborating the untold incidents, but to extend further. How far down the timeline you will move its up to you. I understand your difficulties. You are keen not to deviate from characterization already created by original author. As the original story line categorized as real, adding deliberate fantasy may not be possible for you. In addition, reader's expectation will be another uphill task to overcome.

The end must have been formed in your brain. I sincerely hope, my comments and deliberations will have little or no effect on it.
