Sanjana woke up from her deep slumber upon hearing a Knock on the door continuously.

Sanjana : Ayoo yaru indha nerathula ippudi kadavu thatra! Selvi Akka vara 9 agume ippa 7 o clock dhana. She sighed and went towards the door.

Sanjana stood frozen when she opened the door!

Sanjana : Enna neenga ellam inga vandhurukinga?

Aadi : Sanju Shock ah kora ! Enna enga ellarayum ippudiye veliya nika vaika poriya?

Amru : Akka Tallunga na ulla poren, Aditi , Aadi, Vikram Anna , Madhu Anni  ulla vanga polam!

All the cousins along with Madhu entered the apartment , but Sanjana stood right near the door in a confused state of mind

Madhumita : Hi Sanjana! Na dhan Madhu .
Eppudi iruka ?

There was no response from Sanjana. Madhu snapped her fingers making Sanjana come out  from her thoughts

Sanjana : Hello Anni , Eppudi irukinga ? Photo la patadha vida nerla pakka innum azhaga irukinga !

Madhumita : Hey ennaya neenga anni lam kupdadhainga , Na ungala vida 6 months dhan chinna ponnu ! Anni lam kuptu ennaya aunty mari feel panna vaikadhinga ! She whined .

Sanjana : Seri Apa oru deal inimel ennaya ne va potu dhan pesanum mariyadha lam venam ! Nan unnaya peru solliye kupduren ! Deal Okay va ?

Madhumita :Double Okay Sanju !

Aadi : ayoo ivanga rendu perum vita pesite irupanga pola ! Neenga rendu perum car la vandhu pesikonga !

Sanjana :dei en da car ? Inga ye pesalame ?
She said frowning

Aditi : Amru , Va nama poi Sanju oda dress ellam pack pannala , Na vandhu office related items ellam pack panren nee ava dress ellam pack pannu, Seria ?

Amru : Aditi akka na pathukure! She exclaimed excitedly

Sanjana : Adiye nillunga edhuku en dress ellam pack panringa ? Na office la lam leave ku apply pannala! Na leave apply pannitu varen . She sighed

Vikram : Adu ellam teva ye illa , Aparna kita munnadiye nanga un peru la leave apply panna sollitom , ava apply pani leave kuda sanction ayurchu for 3 weeks ! Apdiye if they need u nee work from home pannikalam , No issues nu unga boss eh sollitanga!

Sanjana : Vikram Anna , idhu eppa plan panninga ! Na andha Aparna number unga kita tandhadhu romba tappa pochu ! Andha Aparna kuda ennaku sollala indha mari pannirukenu

Aadi : Nanga lam edhuku irukom , Nee ippudiye coimbatore pakkam varama ethuna naal ku iruka pora ! Adhu nala dhan nangale ippa kelambi unna kutitu poga vandhom ! He sighed

Madhumita : Sanju , inga paru matavanga ellarum anga wedding nala ooru ku  vandhutanga ! Ne matum illa nu solli feel panranga , Swathi Anni dhan indha idea kudutanga , Nee phone la lam convince panna okay solla mata nerla poi thukitu coimbatore vandhurunga nu ! She said hiding her smile

Sanjana : Ipa do I have any option to escape ? Already neenga ellam plan pani dhan vandhurukinga ! Idhuku mela na no sonna ennaya kidnap panna kuda yosika matinga ! She said in a irritated tone

Hearing this the entire gang of cousins broke into laughter

Vikram : Apdi Va valliku ! Swati Dhan idhuku master mind , Avala dhan thanks sollanum!

Sanjana : Seri Na poi fresh up aytu varen ! Adhu varaikum , Vikram Anna ellarukum coffee poturunga and ennaku tea maranduradhinga

Vikram : Ennaku nalla venum d , Pavam unnaya thaniya vitutu fun panna mudiyala nu na ellarayum kutitu unnaya kutitu poga vandha idhuvum pannuva , idhuku mela yum pannuva ! He said twisting his lips.

Sanjana came back after getting ready and all the cousins were having there cup of coffee!

Amru : Akka , Nanga ellam pack pannitom , Check panniko seriya edhavudhu miss aytena nu !

Vikram : Apdi ye ne edhavudhu marandhalum paravala amru , avaloda things ellam angayum dhana iruku.

Sanjana :Illa amru ellam vachuta, idhu podhum . Namma kelamabalam ! Ama veetla ellarukum sollitingala ennaya kuta dhan varenu ?

Aadi : Unnaya kutitu vara sonnadhe avunga dhan seria ! Romba CBI mari kelvi keka ma kelamburiya ! He said smiling sheepishly

Sanjana locked the door of her House and went down . All of them sat inside the car and started back there journey toward Coimbatore.

********

During the ride ...

Vijay kept adjusting the front mirror to steal glances of Madhumita who was engrossed in her talking with Sanjana , Amru and Aditi.

Aadi : Anna konjam car ah niruthuringala ?

Vikram : En da , Na nalla dhana car ah drive panren!

Aadi : Illa na , amru , sanju and aditi keela erangikurom nanga bus la varom ! Neeyum anniyum car la vanga !

Sanjana : Ama Vikram Anna,  Car ah neenga Road pathu drive pannanum , pinnadi Madhu va sight aduchutu car ah deal la viduringa , Nanga enna aguradhu ! She said in a teasing tone

The entire gang started teasing Vikram and Madhumita , they were more like a human tomato because of blushing !

Aditi : Anni ungaluku , teriuma nanga Swathi Akka kalynam munnadi Ooty ku trip plan potom , apa veetla ellam teriama kelambitom Ana poga modhu dhan nanga yoschom enga poradhu nu teriala ! Apa ore fun dhan , nanga place ah decide panni mudikuradhukula , Adhu oru periya kada ! She let out a breath

Madhumita : Haan Aditi  terium unga Anna sonnaga , neenga eppudi poitu veetla vandhu nalla mati , ellarum nalla ungala vachu senjadhu ellam !

Amru :Kalynam kuda mudiyala adhukula enga veetla Nathan ivalavu information terinjuruchu ! Anna nalla panringa ponga !

Vikram : Amru papa , neeyum ellaroda sendhu enaya vachu seiyadha na pavam. He whined

Amru : Apa nera pathu car ah drive pannunga  ! She grinned

Aadi : Anni ungaluku teriuma ! Sanju panra Ellam kd velaikum ava thituvanga mata , Vikram Anna dhan most ah vanguvanga avaluku badhula. Na oru chinna example taren . Chinna vaysula sanju ku glass items patha odaikanum nu aasai ! Enga veetla keela Hall la glass flower vase iruku , adha sanju odachuta , ava odita. Apa dhan Raji periama vandhanga , vase odachadha kita vikram Anna va pathutanga. Annaiku Anna ku vandadhu parunga oru adi adhula irundhu , sanju bayandhuta !

Everyone started laughing while Vikram was glaring at all of them for constantly pulling his leg!
Just then , Sanjana noticed that Vikram took a different route which was not the usual way to there home .

Sanjana : Anna , enna ippudi poringa nama coimbatore ku pora side ippudi la ? She frowned

Vikram : Yaru sonna unnaku namma ippa veetuku porom nu ?
Aaditi :Sanju  actually nama thirupi Ooty ku porom , Unkita starting laye sonna nee vara mata nu Adam pudipa ! Adhuku dhan sollala

Sanjana: Hey idhu enna pudusa iruku, ellam plan pannitu na reason solli escape aga mudiyama panringa ! She sighed

Aadi :Sanju adi vanguva seria ! Ooty ku dhana kutitu porom , indha scene lam teva illa ! Ollunga va illanu vachuko , night unnaya thunga vida ma panniruven ! He said giggling

Sanjana : Na matum ippa no sonna, apdiye vikram Anna car ah u turn potutu coimbatore  kutitu povangala illa la , apram enna adhan decide pannitingale polam namma !

All of them felt peace after Sanjana agreed to travel to ooty

Sanjana : Dei korangu , Veetla ellarukum teriuma inga Ooty porom nu , munnadi mari thirupi lam poi thitu vanga mudiyadhu da.

Aadi : Ada makku Sanju , Vishwa thata dhan sonnare neenga ellam kelambi Sanju va kutitu ooty poitu vanga nu !

Sanjana : Enna da sollra , idhu enna adisayama  iruku ! Na amma va call panren iru.

Sanjana gave a call to Viji

Viji : Enna Sanju , Kelambitingala ? Enga irukinga ?

Sanjana : Ma , adhulam irukatum , ivunga ellam ooty ku ennaya kutitu poranga , keta veetla dhan permission  kudutanga nu sollranga ! Adhu unmai ah?

Viji : Ama Sanju , Neenga ellam romba busy ah irukeenga adhu nala thata dhan neenga konjam enjoy pannitu vanga nu Ooty ku poitu vara sonnaru .

Sanjana : Amma adhu namma Hitler thata dhana ! Avaruku lam indha mari idea varadhe ! She said with a grin

Viji : Vai jasti ayurhcu d unnaku , ungalukaga okay sonna nee ippudi ellam yosipa ! Seri romba lam over think panna ma enjoy pannitu seekram vanga. Naraya vela iruku inga !

Viji hung the call and the ride to ooty was even more fun than the previous time since Madhu had joined them. But , all this while Sanjana kept quite and she either use to smile to the jokes or peep outside the window admiring the scenery engrossed in her own thoughts

Madhu felt she has to keep sanjana engaged in conversation and therefore initiated one ...

Madhumita : En Sanjana , Namma ellam innum konjam naal la wedding shopping povam la , Apa this time Saree dhana? Last time Swathi Anni kalynam la nee saree poda mata nu ore prachana panniyama ?

Sanjana : Ama , madhu ennakum saree kum set eh agadhu . Sorry this time also na saree kata poradhu illa ! I don't think I ll be comfortable

Amritha : Adhu lam illa Ne dhan oru 6 months munnadi oru wedding ku first time saree katitu ponna ! Adhe mari Vikram Anna kalynam la kathu Sanju Akka !

Hearing what Amritha told , got an immediate change in Sanjana's Face. All this while Sanjana was smiling and after hearing this her eyes started tearing up.
She controlled herself and did not want to be a spoil sport.

Vikram, Aadi and Aditi were already glowering at Amritha for saying something that she shouldn't have . Madhu looked clueless seeing the change among the cousins

Amritha (Mv):  Ayoo , Na lusu thanam palasa Sanju akka ku nyabaga paduthiteno !

Amritha : Ayo sorry Sanju akka teriama solliten!

Madhu : Hey Amru nee ippa edhuku sorry kekura ?

Vikram gestured to Madhumita not to question or speak anything regarding this and assured Madhu that he shall let her know later.

Madhu therefore decide to cheer up everyone's mood around.

Madhu : ellarukum na oru surprise vachurken ! Adhu enna nu na ippa solla maten , ooty ku ponna odana ungaluku terium .

Amru : Anni please surprise enna nu sollunga! I can't handle surprises

Madhu just giggled at Amritha . By then Madhu's Phone started ringing

Madhu : Hello haan sollu

**********

Madhu : Nanga inga innum konjam nerathula ooty vandhuruvom

**********

Madhu : Nee enga iruka ?

*********

Madhu : Seri Na reach Ana odana call panra illa text panren seria ? take care .

**********

Madhu cut the call , to find Aditi already looking at her

Aditi : Anni phone la yaru ?

Madhu : Veetla irundhu dhan da

Sanjana (Mv) : Why do I feel I know Madhu as a person already ! I have heard her name for sure ! Wait AVAR oda thangachi perum Madhumita dhan , Oru vela is our Madhu  his sister? She wanted to clarify !

Sanjana :Madhu unga family la ethuna peru irukanga?.

All the cousins gulped at her question . They were worried if she ll get to know the truth .

Madhu : Sanju ennaku oru thata and 2 brothers avalavudhan . En sudden ah kekura?

Sanjana : illa na chumma dhan keten , Engagement ku varala la adhu nala dhan !

Sanjan(Mv) : Idhuku dhan lusu mari over think panna kudadhu . As much as I know he had a thata and sister , kandippa Namma madhu will not be his sister ! She felt an inner peace after knowing this .

Everyone inside the car jerked when Vikram parked the car.

Vikram : Seri ellarum erangunga vandhutom!

Sanjana : Vikram Anna,  Tirupi Emerald Lake ah , thanks Anna ! Saying so she gave a side hug

Without waiting for others she immediately ran to the Lake and started playing around with the water

Aditi : Finally have 6 masam kaluchu ippudi sirikura . Paakave nalla iruku

Aadi : Paren eppudi chinna pulla mari kaal ah thani kula vitu veladura nu ! He sighed

Amru : Na Sanju akka va ippudi dhan pakkanum nu wait pannen , I missed the old sanju

By then Madhu made a call to someone stating they have reached the location.

Madhu : enna ellarum ingaye nikuringa vanga Sanju kita pogalam

Saying so everyone went towards the direction of where Sanjana was playing with the water . Just then they could hear the sound of a car coming towards them.

Sanjana : Hey Amru ! Inga paren eppudi thani kulu kulu nu iruku. Va namma chinna vaysula velanda mari veladalam . She said turning to them.

When she turned , she stood rooted to the place, without any movement. She stood there frozen when she saw HIM getting down from the car.

Madhu : Dei Varun va da angaye yen nikura ? Enga Akash ah kannom
Madhu went near Varun and took him to Sanjana

Madhu : Sanju idhu dhan en Anna Varun! Matavanga ellam engagement  la pathurukanga nee dhan pakkala !

Sanjana was in a complete shock , she could not believe her eyes , she saw him with his sister who is going to be her sister in law ! She was unable to breathe...
Her past memories with HIM started flashing ......

***********

Hi dears! Chapter eppudi irukunu sollunga ?

So finally Varun yaru nu solliyachu !

But what is the past that Varun and Sanjana shares?

In that case was she not aware that Varun had another brother Akash ?

The cousins did not disclose Madhu being Varun's sister. Why?

I hope I have been able to do justice to all the emotions in this chapter!

Special Thanks to all the new followers and Do let me know ur suggestions and how u felt the chapter as !

Thanks !
