"Hello Guys! Thank you so much for all your presence! It means alot to me! And Thank you Team for arranging this Fan meet! Sooooooo.. shoot your questions if any!" Said Anjali

"Hi Mam! This is your Fourth Hit Novel in a row! How do you feel" asked someone from the crowd

" Mam, Ungaloda 2rd book Kum 3 rd book um neraiya time gap irundhuchu ..almost 7 years... But oru 1 year la...Ungaloda 4th book publish aagi huge success! And you are gonna publish your 5th book today as well! So what is the reason for taking such a long break till a year before! And how do you see the Readers response before and after the hiatus!" Asked a Press member

"Thank you for the question!! Truth to be to said.. The love of readers never changed! It was always the Same 'Unconditional'.. it was them because of whom I wanted to start writing again! Even while I was on break, they used to tag me, DM me and Appreciate & mention my books in Social Medias, that garnered me more and more love from Readers across the world! That Love and That encouragement made me to comeback to the world of writing!"

"Anjali Mam!! Your explore the Genre of Love differently in each of your book! We know you are completely a private person! But could you please let us know about ur Love Life! How romantic are you in real life?!

" Ha ha! That was a good question! But Idha neenga en purushan kitta dhaan ketkanum! Romance la na pass ah fail ah nu avaru sonna dhaan correct ah irukum! But he is the most romantic person for me! That I can affirm"  Her reply made the people around to break into laughter.

"Ungaloda books la..Ungaloda best work nu neenga ninaikradhu edhu Mrs.Anjali?" asked a Senior Journalist

"As an Author, I put my heart and soul into every book of mine like every writers do! But still.. my 3rd book is something special to me! Adhu vara love is all about a butterflies, jitters and bed of roses nu ninachitu irundha enaku ..kadhal oda reality ah unarndhu, purindhu ezhudhuna book! It took me 5 years to complete it" her voice gone octaves lower

The fans and Journalists kept quite not wanting to protrude more into her personal life seeing her moistened eyes.

A fan "So Mam, your book has ranked No.1 in best selling , How do you feel?"

Anjali " Nothing is possible without all your support! Grateful to you all and the almighty!"

Host " Okay Guys! It's time to wind up the Q&A" she said with a Chuckle.

Anitha " We can continue with our Fan Sign event after a 15 mins break! Thank you everyone"
.
.
.
.
Anitha "Anjali enna yosichitruka?"

Anjali " Vikram paththi dhaan!" Said lost in thoughts

Anitha " Hmmm... Adhaan ipo ellam okay airuchula! Romba manasa potu kozhapikadha! Coffee kudichu mudichtanna vaa! Un fans lan unkita pesa wait pandranga!"

Anjali "yeahhh...Am done! Vaa polam"

.
.
.
She is completely overwhelmed with all the love and gifts showered upon her by her fan-fam.. it's been an hour since the fan sign has began! Each and every fan she met had made her spellbound with their kind words.

It was almost the time to wind up, she was about to get up from her chair, but was stopped when she saw a little hand holding a paper, stretched towards her from behind the desk placed in front of her.

"Hellooooo Anju Aunty! " She was surprised to see a little girl in this event.

She stood from her chair and walked around the table to reach out to the little girl. She lifted her in her arms and made her seated on the table, as she looked at the child.. she asked, "Hello Kutty!! Thaniya Inga enna pandreenga? Amma or appa varlaya?? And ungaluku epdi enna theriyum?" in a soft voice.

"En mummy unga big fan! Daddy Nanum Icecream sapdavandhom! Ungala pathana! Neraiya uncle aunties unga kita sign vangitrundhangala..adhaan nanum vaangitu poi en mummy ku surprise pannalam nu odi vandhutan" Her reply and the way she said,  made Anjali and Anitha to smile at her cuteness.

Anjali "Oru 5 mins wait pandreengala! Namma poi unga daddy ah first thedalam! Paavam avaru unna kaanala nu bayandhurparu la" asked holding her chin gently.

The little girl nodded accepting her words.

Anjali thanked everyone for making the event, a grand success and bid bye to the crowd, while Anitha followed her out carrying the child.
.
.

Anjali "Kutty! Unga appa Inga enga irukaru?"

The little girl take a look around the ice cream shop but pouted not finding her father anywhere.

Anitha " Papa va kaanala nu avaru theda poirparu! Irunga na poi thedi pakran!"

Anjali " unaku avaru yaaru ne theriyadhu epdi di kandupidipa!

Anitha "Kozhandhaiya kaanom na..evlo bayandhurparu! Moonjiya paathe kandupidichirlan! Nee papa kooda ingayae wait pannu...na vandhudran"

Little girl " Aunty! Enga daddy may be pakathu building ku poirparu! Amma anga dhan iruka.. Amma ku oru conference irukunu dhaan naanga Inga vandhom. Amma kaga wait panni bore adichudhunu dhaan icecream sapdavandhom!

Anjali " apo nee Inga thedu di..naanga vena andha building la irukara nu poi thedrom!"said worried

"Vendan Anjali! May be avaru marupadi papa ingaye irukaa la nu paaka vandharunaa enna pandradhu! Papa va namma thaniya vum vida mudiyadhu! Nee ingaye wait Pannu..! Na Inga theditu angayum poi pakran! Anga Dance related conference edho nadakudhu nu en frnd sonna! Ava anga dhaan iruka.. Na venumna avaluku phone panni anga enna edhunu kettu pakran"! Anitha said and walked away in hope of finding the worried father.

Anjali can't help but feel the bitterness the word 'Dance' gives to her everytime. Not sure why it has so much impact even after all these years. Sighing out, she sat with the little one consoling her who started crying, as she understood that she shouldnt have gone away from her father without informing, like her mother always warned her.

Anjali "Kutty! Azhadha ma! Namma unga appa amma va kandupidichirlam! Sariya! Ipo vaanga naama ungaluku icecream vaangalan! Okay!!"
.
.

The little girl was relishing the icecream while Anjali was worriedly inquiring the security officer to whom she has requested to search for the child's Father.

But she was startled to hear the ear throbbing voice of someone calling her "Anju maa".

Noo it was not her! It was the Little girl who is right now being squeezed in a tight hug by her Father, whom she couldn't identify yet as he was facing opposite of her! She realised she failed to ask the name of the little one.

Thanking the security officer, she moved to the duo, waiting for them to come out from their bubble.

She tapped the shoulder of the man,  only to get the shock of her life.

It's Him! After 9 years!!

He was feeling no less..
Bewildered and Shocked!

"Anjali!!!" She heard him say her name in feeble voice

Gathering her strength, she stretched out her hand to greet him,

"Hello Vikram!"

.
.
.
.
.

Both were sitting at a cafe stirring their coffees awkwardly, while his child was sipping her hot chocolate.

"Epdi irukeenga Anjali" he started the conversation

Anjali "Nalla irukan Vikram! Neenga epdi irukeenga"

Vikram "All Good" said with a genuine smile.

Vikram " ... am.. am sorry.. am so so sorry Anjali... I know it's been years and you have moved on! But this has been nagging my heart always! When you sacrificed ur love for me, whem you let me go just for the sake of my happiness, I never consoled you, I didn't even apologize.. neenga avlo azhudhu pesumbodhum, I just sat there like a dumb which I was. Ungakitta mannipu ketrukanum, I should have confronted my change of feelings with you. Ungala oru option ah na ninaikala, ana..nadandhadhellam andha maari dhaan na ungala treat panirkanu enaku aprum dhaan purinjidhu. Enna Mannichidunga Anjali, For breaking ur trust and ur heart. Fiance oda Ex nu na sollumbodhum, neenha enna nambinadhala you let her stay close to us, but andha nambikai ku na thagudhiyanavan ila.. I lied to you, and I broke you. Am terribly sorry!!" He completed with remorse in his face.

Anjali couldn't help but tear up, everything feels so fresh even after years.. The jitters, The trust, the  love, The Pain and the betrayal. Uffffff....She wiped her tears and plastered a smile on her face!!
Holding his palm gently in her hand, she said " It's Okay, I forgive you Vikram! Let go of the past!"

He literally felt that heavy pain being left off from his chest.

Yes He is happily married to his love of life and they have their symbol of love. But he always had this regret for the way he mistreated Anjali.. blame his stupidity and immaturity.

He payed their bill, and they walked out of the cafe as he carried his child.

Vikram " Thank you Anjali! Na kooptanu en kooda cafe vandhadhuku, enna manichadhuku and en ponna pathuktadhuku...avala kanom nu romba bayandhutan!"

Anjali " Am so sorry Vikram! Ava thaniya vandhurkanu therinja udane ungala Theda arambichtom but thankfully neengalae kandupidichteenga! Paavam theriyama odi vandhuta."

Vikram " Hmmmmm... Apdiye avanga Amma maari Vaalu..?!"

She has to smile right! But why couldn't she!? But yeah she can fake a smile and that's what she did.

When she was introduced to Preethi as Vikram Ex. She kind of thought, she understood what made them broke up. Preethi was more practical, self centred and fussy, whereas Vikram was a dreamer, considerate and easy-going. Ofcourse Opposite attracts.. thats what everyone says! But on long run, Partners need to accept each other differences and respect their choices, which makes a relationship, Healthy. And Anjali felt that it was missing from Preethi. And she believed that was what led to their breakup. But She was fooled. Everything was complicated within the web of love. Whom to accuse? Vikram who lied to her and became indecisive/ Anjali who trusted them both and her foolishness to let a 3rd person in between her and her fiance/Preethi who was not clear in her stand and played with emotions/ or the fate that entangled them.

"Kolandha kaanama poiruka nu avlo alanjirkeenga.. avanga Amma innum varave ila! Andha conference avlo mukiyama enna?" Anjali snickered unable to control herself

Though he find the rude tone, he chose to ignore it "ila Anjali!! She doesn't know baby went missing... Naan dhaan solala... Ava romba bayandhurva! She might even get panic attack.. ipo nadandhadhu therinjaprum enna undu ilanu pannapora! Nanae epdi samalikardhunu yosichitrukan!! He said with a scared expression.

Anjali MV: May be things have changed, Preethi has changed! It's rude to judge someone through past when we were disconnected for years. If Preethi is being the best wife to Vikram and a great mother to this kutty. That's enough for me!!

Anjali passed a genuine smile to Vikram at Last which has been missing from the moment they met today.

Vikram " So ungala pathi sollunga Anjali! How are you? Ungaloda career success enaku theriyum! But ... But how about personal life? " Asked with a visible worried lines in his forehead.

Anjali "It was hard when I let you go Vikram.. You were my first love and my first ever heart break ... I was incapable of handling that pain!!....
Taking a deep breath,she continued " I moved to New York hoping change of environment, will change me as well. And It did, after 2 years.. Andha rendu varusham Na naanave ila, I was depressed, and So lost! But yeah!! I started exploring the world, meeting different people.Going on Solo trips made me revive my self. And I met Abhi, Love of my life! He knew about you and the pain I qas going through...He made me to love myself again! He brought the lost colours in my life again! I started smiling and laughing heartily.. My Family was happy! We felt we are the one for each other.. It didn't take us much time to tie the knot. Now we are a Family of three, Happily settled here in Mumbai"

Vikram face bloomed with a smile that's enough to lighten up the world! Indeed the dark side of his heart has been lightened seeing Anjali being happy in her life.

Vikram "Unga family ah na meet panlama please! "

Anjali "kandipa but not today! Avaru business trip poirkaru! And paiyan school poirkan! Definitely I will let you know once my hubby is back"

Vikram "Sure Anjali" with a smile

Their conversation was interrupted as she got a call from her son.

In phone ;

Anjali " Sollu da! Enna aachu! School larndhu ivlo seikram vandhuta?"

Anjali " Half day va! Sari okay.. saptu! Konja neram thoongu! Na vandhadhum HomeWork panlam!"

Anjali "No way Vikram! Adivaangadha! Last week dhaanae..neeyum daddy um poitu 4 game CD vangitu vandheenga! Ipo new game CD venum nu soldra! Vaangnadha first uh vilayadu aprum pakalam... Ipo nee poi sapdu! Na seikram varan.. bye"

Anjali disconnected her call and saw Vikram who is zoned out

Anjali "Enna aachu vikram?"

Vikram "ketkaran nu thappa ninaikadheenga!! na ungala neraiya hurt panirkan! But still neenga yen paiyanuku Vikram nu paer vachirkeenga?"

Anjali let out smile and Said " I loved you Vikram.. You were my first love!  Yes neenga sonna maari, enna neraiya hurt panirkeenga! But you gave me beautiful memories too.....
No one is perfect in this world Vikram" We all make mistakes! We learn through mistakes! When you were showing disinterest in us, romba blind ah irundhadhum en thappu dhanae! Just the circumstances put us all through difficult situation.. And I believe this is how it meant to be.. I found my Abhi! So elarum maariyum dhaan mudhal kadhaloda ninaiva, I named my son after you."

Anjali "Adhu irukatum! Anju maa nu koopteengale  paapa oda full name enna!" she asked caressing the head of the little one who dozed off in her chair.

Vikram " Anjali "

Anjali "sollunga Vikram" asked uncertain

Understanding she didn't get it, Vikram said " Her Name is Anjali! We named her after you!"

Now it was Anjali's time to get shocked. Vikram was her first love, so she named her son as him but Vikram never loved Anjali to begin with, so she is unsure why they have kept her name, that too when she know Preethi is not someone that considerate.

Anjali "Errrrrr..okay! But if you don't mind me asking, Preethi epdi en paer ah vaika othukta?"

Vikram "Avanga en othukanum?" Asked confused.

Anjali "Kolandhaiyoda Amma kum name ah choose pandra urima irukula apdii dhaan! said nonchalantly

Vikram stood from his chair, startled" whattt?"

"Enachu Vikram, en ivlo shock aagreenga" Anjali asked not understanding why the hell he is reacting this way.

Composing himself, Vikram sat on his seat and asked her "Unagaluku edhuvume theriyadha?"

Anjali "ipdi thalaiyum Ilama vaalum ilama keta..enaku onnum purila! Enna theriyadha nu..ketkareenga, be clear please"

Vikram letting out a deep breath" Me and Preethi broke up, just after 4 months into the relationship!"

"Whatttt" Anjali shocked unable to believe her own ears.

Struggling his shoulders Vikram said "we were never meant to be, Anjali!"
.
.
.

Anjali "So what happened?" Asked after 5 mins of Silence

Vikram who was lost in his past, said " oru porul la namaku pidichirku! Adhuku kedaikadhanu theriyumbodhu! Andha porul unmailaye namaku thevaiya nijamave namaku pidichirkanu theriyama.. Namaku kedaikalandra ekkathla mattume irupom! Adhu kedaikardhuku vaaipu irukunu theriyumbodhu epdiyachum adha vaangi vachikuvom! Ana adhukaprum adhu namaku thevapadaadhunumbodhu adha namma kanduka kooda matom! Apdi dhaan Nanum Preethi um irundhutom!

"sathyama purila! Unga riddles ah vitutu konjam direct answers please" Anjali Scoffed

Vikram "Anjali! Namma alliance ku munadi vara..enaku ipdi dhan ponnu venum nu sila expectations irundhuchu! Andha expectation ellame ungakita fullfill aachu..enaku ungala romba pidichidhu! Ungala impress pannanum nu na oru poiyana love life sonnan! Though it's a lie! It was something I dreamt about myself if at all, I fell in love.. Andha dream la..na imagine panna ponna.. nerla paathan ...!Preethi! Enaku irundha expectation ku opposite ah irundhanga! Avangaloda boldness , Her Vanity and Her satiablity made me attracted to her..more than all this The Fact that my imaginary dream has come to light made me to think I have fallen in love. But I was uncertain between you and her. Unknowingly I treated both of you as Options...Ava Ilana nee nu romba cheap ah nadandhuktan, though it was not my conscience. When I know she is out my league, andha kedaikadha oru vishyam mela namaku romba adhigama ve attachment vandhrum... apdi dhaan Avanga en life la irundha epdi irukum ndra over expectation. I was even playing with your emotions according to her behaviour with me.Ipo ninachalum en mela enake verupa iruku! Evlo mosama unna treat panirkan la" He sighed out.

" But yeah! When you walked off and let me go for my happiness! Me and Preethi reconciled and started dating. Things were all good for a month just like in everyone's love Life. We used to fight alot, then resolve , and then fight again for every little matters and we drifted off unknowingly in this process ... For the sake of being in the relationship, we lost our happiness and mental peace..
Her world and my world is completely opposite and both of us are egoistic enough not to enter into the other's world and understand each other. But thankfully matured enough to understand we have fallen out of love long back, and we were not even sure if we should call it as love in the first place. We broke up mutually." He completed

Anjali "Am so sorry for you Vikram" said in a plain tone
*After a pause*
" En kita thirumbi varanumnu ungaluku thonucha Vikram?" in a straight tone

Vikram " Vandhurndha aethukitu irundhurpingala Anjali?"

Anjali "Sathyama Matan" she huffed
making him laugh aloud.

Vikram " Just Joking! Kandipa varanumnu enaku thonala Anjali ! I just realised I was never truly in love with either of you! Enaku Preethi mela irundhadhu love ilandradhu kooda enaku kandupidika theriyala! Oru Poi ya base ah vachi build aana oru relationship! Unga rendu perukume na true ah ila! When she was adamant in accepting me, Without clearing things with you,I was ready to get married to you and avoided her calls! Evlo immatured ah irundhurkanu enaku purinjidhu! Am not ready to hurt anyone again! So Career la concentrate panna arambichan! Break up naala depressed ah irundhana nu keta, sathyama ila, I felt relieved.. I felt am able to breath again..Unga elaraiyum hurt panitanengra guilt dhaan irundhuchu... so inoru relationship adhunala vara complications handle pandralavuku enaku arivila nu thonuchu! You don't deserve me! And you are also not the one for me .. adhellam purinjikave enaku sila varsham aachu"!  He completed making her to smile at his maturity now.

"So Mr.Matured, Am not the one for you nu soneengalae!... So tell me about the One who is yours? kutty Anjali oda Amma va epdi patheenga! Love marriage ah arranged Marriage ah and epdi en paera vaika othuktanga?" She asked with Excitement visible in her tone.

"
"After everything happened I have become completely silent, an Introvert, and a loner... Ava vandha!!!! En life ah apdiye colourful ah mathita..
*After a pause*
Anjalii na sonna neenga nambamateenga! Enna vida 9 years chinna ponnu!  Ana avlo maturity...I always thought I needed a partner in my wife, who is independent, who handles things on their own, an another strong individual but it all became upside down... I realised I needed a mother in my wife, I realised I needed a best friend who is gonna pull my legs and make fun of me .. i realised I needed a cheer leader who boasts me up all the time, I realised I love to be pampered like a child!! You know She calls me "Valarndha Kolandha" ! I can be myself with her! I don't need to fake a strong demeanor infront of her! Enaku inoru Amma En pondatti ! Ipo en ponnum andha maadhiri dhaan! Rendu perukum Naa dhaan ulagam enakum avanga dhaan Ulagam!"

"Hmm.. neenga soldradhu ketkave romba azhaga iruku" Anjali said feeling content

Anjali "Adhu sari! Epdi meet paneenga! Yaaru first uh propose panna" asked in a teasing tone

Vikram said "Adhu oru periya kadha"  with a blush evident on his cheeks

Anjali "Ivlo neram maathi maathi kadha dhanae solitrukom! Inoru kadha ketkara alavuku enaku time iruku! Neenga sollunga Sir?!" Said in a strict tone

Vikram " you remember Chitti la"

Anjali "Andha noodles mandaiyana epdi marakardhu! Contact la dhan irundhan! Nee, Preethi and Avan serndhu hang out pandradha status ah potu kadupethuvan! Adhaan block panitan aprum" said irritated

Vikram " Ha ha! Naan Preethi sanda podama irundha time na..adhu chitti enga kooda irundha time mattum dhaan! But Avan ungala verupetha podala! Enoda pondatti kaga dhaan potan"

Anjali "Purila Vikram" she whined.

"Chitti oda cousin dhaan enoda Wife. She met me when I went to Chitti's home once! Apo enaku breakup aagala!
Cute ah oru pink frock potutu angayum ingayum nadandhuktu irundha! " Said looking up

Anjali " Ipo edhuku neenga mela pathutu pesitrukeenga"!

Vikram "Flashback soldraenga..neengalum mela paarunga! Apo dhan continuity kedaikum"

Anjali "Adhu sari! Panni tholaikran!.oru nalla love story ketka enalan panna vendiyadha iruku!!"

Both looked up while the little princess was happily taking her nap

"Flashback "

Chitti " Aprum Mapla! Preethi kooda time spend pannama .. enna paaka vandhurka..enna vishyam!

Vikram " Ada yen Machan Nee vera! Daily sanda .. en sanda edhuku sanda nu kooda therila.. nimadhiye pochu! "

Chitti " idhuku dhan olunga Anjali ya ve kalyanam Pannu nu na sonnapa...ketrundha!"

Vikram "en da nee vera! I don't deserve her!"

Chitti "sari vidu! Poga poga ellam sari airum! Ella relationship um konjam indha phase ah kadandhu dhaan varum"

Vikram " adhukulla na enna gadhi aagaporano " helplessness visible in his voice

Chitti "a........"

"Hello Anneyyy"

They were interrupted by a chirpy voice .

Chitti "Ena papa Inga vandhurka?"

" Periamma ungala kooptanga neyy!" She Said

Chitti "Sari mapla! Nee iru ..na Amma kitta enanu ketutu varan"

The girl slowly moved towards Vikram.. while keeping both of her hands behind.

"Hellooo Vikram" the girl greeted

Vikram " Hi nga"

The girl gave him a red rose which she has kept behind her back till now.

Her contagious smile made him to reciprocate it and take the flower without conscience.

That girl "enaku ungala romba pidichirku! Inailarndhu neenga dhan en crush uhhh"

Vikram "Crush ah? Apdina?!" with confusion

Lily " idhu kooda theriyadha?! Enna aalu neenga!.. chaaa! Crush uh na Friend ku mela Lover ku keela!!!!" Said with proud look

Vikram "edheyyy" his eyes ready to come out of its socket in shock

Not minding his shocked state That Girl again asked " aamaaaaa neenga single ah commited ah?'

Vikram asked "Single ah irundha enna panva Committed ah irundha enna panva"?  after coming out of his shock.

"enaku onnum prachna ila pa* she shrugged

He is not sure why he didn't let her know that He is committed and in a relationship already.

That girl ran away like a butterfly, as she heard someone calling for her

She left but the aura she has spread with her presence has still lingered around... Making him smile after so long.

*Flashback ends*

Vikram "Adhukaprum na avala pakala! But chitti solvan! Enna pathiye dhaan pesitrupa! nee committed nu solliyum crush uh brush uh nu suthitrukaa...adhaan avaluku avaloda crush, one side love ah marama iruka dhaan...apdi story podranu! But no use!

Anjali "En apdi soldreenha! ?"

Vikram "she.. she.. fell in love with me! Ana en kita avaluku apdi enna pidichidhu nu dhaan enaku puriyave ila! We infact never spoke with each other after that day..."

Anjali "adhu oru girl feeling Vikram! Unaku adhu sonnalum puriyadhu! Oru sense of comfort ungakita avangaluku irundhurkum ninaikran! "

Vikram " Yeah!! That's what she says! Na avaloda veedu maadhiri nu soluva! Enna pathale oru warm feeling irukum nu solluva" said with a blush!

Anjali "paarraaa Sir Vetkam lan padraru" she chuckled. "Sari Aprum enna aachu?"

Vikram " Aprum enna... Na break up aanaprom romba ve introvert ah maritan!... because enaku therila! Whom to trust! Who will be with me throughout! Who will accept me as the person as I am, rather than expecting me to be the person of their liking" nu.. so I stopped getting close to people... But idhu break up naala vandha change nu na sollamatan! Becoz even I wanted to get out of that relationship! It was a mutual decision as I realised I was not in love ... That change was because I felt I failed to understand people.. !" He sighed.

He continued "Marupadiyum na avala chitti oda wedding time la dhan pathan! Cute ah bunny maari anga Inga gudhichtrandha ponnu, Maroon saree katiktu apdiye Devadha Madhiri vandhu ninna!! I felt my heart skipping a beat for the first time!"

" Idhae maadhiri dhaane Preethi ah pathapavum reaction kudutheenga...aprum enna first time " Anjali mocked

"Adhu vandhu vera Anjali! I was stunned on seeing Preethi, becoz she matched the girl of my imaginary story! It was an instant attraction! If you didn't know I had the same reaction when I met you for the first time too! Ennana it was a bit subtle! But what I felt on seeing my wife was different.. adhu varaikum na apdi feel pannadhila" Vikram explained

Anjali "Hmmm... Sari sari.. nambran! You continue! "

Vikram" Anaiku Ava stage la oru mini concert ae nadathitta! 'Unakaga vaazha ninaikranu' Ava paadumbodhhu.. Ava enna paartha andha paarva! made me to feel chills in my spine!"
I realised she meant each and every word of the song for me. But i was not ready to get into another relationship! I tried to keep my distance with her, but everything went in vain." He shrugged his shoulders with a little smile dancing on his lips reminiscing all their moments.

"Ava pesuva pesuva pesikte irupa! Adha evlo neram aanalum na ketute irupan! She made me feel happy! Avaloda chirpiness, enaiyum open up pannavachudhu! I started being my old self with her!  Enake theriyama enakulla iruka kozhandha thanatha Ava dhaan kandupidicha, she becomes my Mother whenever I feel low. Ava Ilana i couldn't survive ngra maari oru kattathuku vandhutan!"

Anjali "hmmm... So neenga dhaan apo first propose panneengala?"

Vikram " I wanted to...but I was hesitant.. so na soldradhukulla..avalae sollita" he said laughing

Anjali " Awwww so sweetttt! So epdi irundhuchu proposal ?"

Vikram " Avaloda last day in her college.. she has secured University 1st! Ava enna invite panirndha...ana..Na show iruku varamudiyadhu nu solitan.. but actually na anaiku avanga college ke guest ah poirndhan with the help of her friend Angayarkanni and her Lover.. Anaiku venumne late ah reach aagi..correct ah.. Avala honour pannumbodhu! entry kuduthan with her favourite song"Nenjai Poo Pol koidhavaley" in the background...."

Anjali "Ada paavi! College management and University Chancellor lan irundhurpangale...maatlaya neenga?

Vikram " Adhu avaloda frnd dhaan andha college ke Don aam!! Adhaan... Avaru thillalangadi vela panni, na surprise panna help pannaru!! And It was all worth it! She was so flabbergasted and so overwhelmed... Ava kanla anaiku irundha happiness...avaloda cutest expressions... Ellamae innum evlo risk eduthalum parvalanu dhaan irundhuchu..

Anjali "Apo anaiku dhan propose pannangala"

Shaking his head horizontally, with a huge smile he said " Anailarndhu engaloda equation ae maariduchu! We know what we had, but we were not voicing it out! ... She became my everything... Enna Raja maari treat panva!! And She became my manni too! She conquered me completely in her love "
one day, Na oru show host panitrundhan, apo live la oru call adhu Ava dhan nu Ava voice vache therinjidhu, ana venumne theriyadha maari pesnan.. "en voice kooda therilaya" nu kochikta.. Such a Cutiepie ...

Words are not enough describe the way he feels right now!

She is confessing to him indirectly in a live show! What more can make him happy!
But Man! He was so wrong!

The next words he heard from her pushed him to the state of Euphoria

"I love you Vikrameyy! Am waiting for you! Please come soon! " She disconnected the call right away.. without giving him time to realise what's even happening!

He played the Song "Ondra Renda" and ran out of the room to meet, only to be stumbled on his steps !

There she stood, in a Purple Saree..in the middle of hall completely decorated with Purple shades of Flowers and balloons!

He could see  his Dad, Her Parents, Chitti and all other friends and colleagues, standing on each side!

For a second, he thought he is in some dream land, so he did what he felt right at that moment...He pinched himself, to confirm the reality.

His act made everyone to laugh while She graciously walked up to him, with a smile enough to brighten his entire world.

Holding his hand in her hand, she went on her knees shocking him to the core.
"Vikrameyy! 'Unaku en enna pidichirku, inspite of my past ' nu Adikadi nee ketute irupa! Ana sathyama enakum therila.. unna en enaku ivlo pidichirku nu... Adhaan.. unkooda vaazhndhu paathu kandupidikalam nu irukan! Enna kalyanam panikriya" she asked with a ring on her other hand.

The tears on his eyes is the proof of how much he is overwhelmed with the unconditional love of her.

Making her stand up, He hugged her so tight not giving space even for the Air to pass through.

His Soft "Yes" amidst his sobs, is enough to make the crowd erupt in applause and screams

Vikram "My Azhagu raniye! I love you to the moon and back! And thank you for all this! Am so lucky to have you"

"Feelings are mutual Vikrameyy!" Sari sari vaa namma beach ku polam! Ennoda romba varusha aasa en aal kooda beach ku poganum nu..Vaa vaa povom! Elarkum byeeee" she said dragging from there who followed her like love sicken puppy which he truly is, making another round of laughter from the crowd.

And then We got married after 7 months! Happily living in our little own world.

Anjali "Pahhh...sema ponnu Vikram! You are really lucky " said with genuine happiness

Why not, the guilt she had till now, has disappeared completely from her heart. The guilt is not because she let him go, but because she let him go for Preethi...
At that moment, she felt she made a right decision for his happiness though it hurted her, but as the time goes on, she realised how wickedly Preethi has gifted that Art of them, as a wedding gift, knowing the chaos it will create. If She would have directly told her the truth, she could have felt her genuinity. But Hell No... It was all plan of her to stop the wedding, and make Vikram to go behind her.

But Thank God! Vikram is in the safest hands. Yes he made mistakes in repulse and dilemma but she knew he is a Gem.

Vikram " Unma dhaan! Na romba lucky!" He said breaking her train of thoughts.

Anjali "So epdi enoda name ah Papa ku vacheenga! Nyayama nee Preethi nu dhanae vachirkanum!"

Vikram "Edheyy! Ada Yenga!

Na Sivaangi nu dhan paeru vaika sonnan, ana..en wife ku ungala romba pidikum, as an author, ana namma past therinjaprum, her respect for you multiplied.. she used to say 'namaku romba pidichavangala avangaloda sandhoshathukaga vittu kudukardhulan, evlo periya vishyam theriyuma nu' and nee vittu kuduthadhala dhaan na avaluku kedachanu soluva!...so madam dhaan un paera vachanga! And I am completely happy to oblige her decision."

Anjali " So avanga ipo eng(a....)

They were interrupted by a voice

"Vikrameyyyyyy!'

She came like a tornado infront of him, beating his chest with her little hands! Which obviously didn't hurt him...

But still

"Maa maa valikudhu maa!"

"Yov!! Kolandha kaanama poitalameyy yen enkita solala"

Vikram "Maa adhu ilama! Nee conference la irundha adhaan.. na kandupidikala na unkita udane odi vandhurvan... Papa kedachita.. adhaan maa.. Nee relax aagu please! Ivlo tension aagardhu! Baby ku naladhu ila ma"said keeping his hand on her Visible baby bumb.

His words and his touch made her to calm down to some extent.

And Anjali was astonished to see the little cracker and the way Vikram is cajoling her.

She broke into fits of laughter, making the duo to come from their love land.

"Anjali Akkaa" she shrieks and hugged her tight startling Anjali and also waking up the Little Anjali from her beauty sleep..

Little Anjali "Appa !! mummy en thookatha disturb pandra! Amaidhiya iruka sollu!"

"Adiye sollama kollama oditu! Nalla pulla maari vandhu thoongitiya! Unna aprum vachikran iru"

Little Anjali "Mummy No No No! Na anju aunty kita Sign vaanga dhan poirndhan! Ellam yaarukaga yaarukaga!! Paaru nee un favourite Author ah ipdi hug panitruka.. Idhellam en naala dhaan..."

"Pch!! Irundhalum unaku punishment iruku, veetuku vaa vachikran!"

Anjali "Vidu da! Ini papa apdi lan panna maata! 'illa da kutty" Asked turning to the little one, making her bobble her head.

"Anjali akka! Enaku ungala romba pidikum! Unga books ellamae padichirkan.
I always wanted to meet you! Inaiku dhaan adhu nadandhurku! And I wanted to ask sorry om his behalf ..avaru ungala romba hurt panitaru.. he always felt guilty about it..."

Anjali "It's okay da! We spoke and sorted it out! Everything was meant to happen!! You guys are destined..am so happy he has you!" said making the Couple to pass a genuine smile between each other!

Anjali " By the way Un paer ena da...  ivlo neram unga love story ketan! But Un paera avarum solala nanum ketkamaranthutan!

All the three broke into laughter, As Vikram introduced " Anjali! Meet My Wife LiLy, Lily Vikram"

And There, began a start for the beautiful friendship between both the families
