Late Blooming Lust
Ramakrishna, a retired Bank Manager, lived in a city with his wife Seethamma. He had a son and a daughter both working in America and England. Married daughter lived in England with her two kids. Ramakrishna was looking for a bride for his son. Although son had a good job in America, it became difficult to find a girl for him. He contacted Vishalakshi, a local marriage broker. 55-year-old Vishalakshi, lived nearby Ramakrishna house and her husband Sundar is a retired teacher. The couple had no children. Both the husband and wife actively participated in social activities. Vishalakshi was not only a member of several organizations but also involved herself in the search of brides and grooms. They was popular because they didn't get paid by anyone for what they was doing. Vishalakshi informed Ramakrishna about several young girls. But none of them worked. For about six months, Ramakrishna went to Vishalakshi's house every day without fail, so Vishalakshi's husband Sundar also became close to him. Over time this acquaintance turned into friendship and both the families started meeting from time to time. With the help of Vishalakshi, a well-educated young woman came as Ramakrishna's daughter-in-law. Thus, the bond of both the families became stronger.
Two years later, Seetamma died of heart attack. It was as if the sky had fallen on Ramakrishna's head, as his entire life after his retirement depended on his wife. His son went to his father after his mother's funeral, said to Dad, you can't be alone at home without Mom. Anyway you have ten years US visa. So you come and stay with us so that you won’t feel alone and forced him to come with him and spend six months in his house and forget the sadness of her mother's departure. Ramakrishna became even more lonely in America. Son and daughter-in-law both went to work, grandchildren went to school, one has to stay at home. It would have been better if he had stayed in India, At-least he would have had friends to talk here. Ramakrishna felt that there was no one here and he became even more alone. After three months, he returned home saying that he could not afford to spend time with his son in America. When he came home, his big house, without his wife was not good. There were servants to do the housework. To pass the time, Ramakrishna not only read newspapers, but also went for walks in the morning and evening and spent time with his friends. He started participating in meetings. Vishalakshi and Sundar used to go to their house once in two days. During festivals, they used to eat at Vishalakshi and Sundar's house. He used to go on trips to nearby towns with them. But he was not satisfied with all these activities. He turned to social media and websites. He started spending hours every day in front of the computer. One night he came across a pornographic website on his computer. Ramakrishna was mesmerized by seeing it. Since then it became his hobby to see that site every night.
Meanwhile, Sundar got sick and was hospitalized for ten days and passed away. Vishalakshi endured the separation of her husband. Sometimes she went to her sister's house and stayed there for two months and returned home. After she came to the village, Ramakrishna went to her house every day and comforted her and spent the whole day with her and returned to his house at night. Ramakrishna used to do all the work that Sundar used to do. Due to this Vishalakshi gradually forgot her pain. After spending for about 6 months, one day Ramakrishna addressed Vishalakshi, now we both are alone. You come and live in our house. However, we have a few workers in our house. Both will benefit. You should continue your social activities. Initially, Vishalakshi did not agree to this proposal and said that you have children, ask them. That same night, Ramakrishna called both his children and informed them about the matter. Both the children suggested that it would be better for their father to cohabit with Vishalakshi, Dad, you are alone anyway. You need company. We don't want your property. The son said that we want you to be happy, do what you think is right, the daughter said that it is better for her father to marry Vishalakshi. Ramakrishna thought hard about this and decided to marry Vishalakshi.
The next day Ramakrishna went to Vishalakshi's house and proposed to marry her. Vishalakshi also agreed. Both of them went to the registrar's office and gave notice that they decided to get married. Vishalakshi said that first we both should live together for six months and then get married. When Ramakrishna agreed, Vishalakshi came to Ramakrishna's house and started living. But she started sleeping alone in another room. Even at the age of 65, Ramakrishna had lot of interest in sex, the pornographic websites he visited every night fueled his sex drive. One night Ramakrishna, who was lustful, asked Vishalakshi to come and sleep in his room. Vishalakshi did not agree but went to Ramakrishna's room under his compulsion. Vishalakshi was invited by Ramakrishna to have sex. She is shocked, we are both old. She categorically said that we both decided to get married for each other's support and not for sex. Sex is a natural human process, it has no age limit anyway after six months we both will get married he replied to her. Moreover, Ramakrishna told her that because of their union, she will not get pregnant. He had forceful sex with her on the same night. Shocked Vishalakshi started sleeping in her previous room from the next day.
Ramakrishna did not want Vishalakshi because she refused to have sex with him. He started fighting with her everyday for trivial reasons. One day Ramakrishna got angry with Vishalakshi for some reason and kicked her out of his house saying that he will not marry her. Deeply shocked by this, Vishalakshi went straight to the police station. She complained that Ramakrishna cheated her to marry her and forced her to have sexual intercourse with him and raped her. Surprised, the police called both of them for a consultation, after realizing that Ramakrishna had raped her, Vishalakshi said that she would not withdraw her complaint for any reason. The police registered a complaint against Ramakrishna and arrested him. Both the accused and the victim were subjected to medical examination. The doctor opined that both of them are capable of having sex. Ramakrishna was arrested and sent to judicial custody. When the case came up for hearing in the court, Ramakrishna's lawyer, seeing that the case depended only on the victim's statement, was convinced that the accused would definitely be punished. He did not want his client to go to jail at this age. Thus, he talked to the well-wishers of both the parties and succeeded in bringing the accused and the complainant together. As a result of their efforts, an agreement was reached between the two. Accordingly Vishalakshi did not justify her statement in court. The case was acquitted. Ramakrishna married Vishalakshi after his release.(1)
We people have good opinion on old people, as they turn 60 we believe they are safe but its not true in all cases. Youngsters have lot of things to do in life. Youngsters have lot of pressure in life to achieve many things and have responsibility in life. And we all think that only Youngster are active in sex, “NO” once people approach 60, they have nothing to do in life. They continue to be healthier and sexually active without any tension in life. When they cross 60 and when there is absence of partner, less to focus on, they feel loneliness and sexual stimulation in the form of porn online. Online porn encourages them to have sex on whosoever available to them. Elderly people feel the need for sex as much as the younger needs. This doesn’t work in all old people but in many cases it works. And now a days everyone has their own mobile to watch sex tapes in their mobile. When aged people get this kind of bad thinking they have to divert their mind to spiritual activities and should be far away from porn websites because it fuels sexuality and that may lead to hurdle.
