Kathir is seeing all the pictures of that were sent by Kanna..

She looks different in saree..

A bit matured may be..

But, the innocence that overflows on her face makes him drool like anything..

He remembers what Meena and Kanna told about her..

'Andha ponnu romba bayandha subaavam Kathiru..

Nee paatukkum edhaachum velayada poi ava serious ah eduthuka poraa..

Adakka odukkamaa nadandhuko'

He laughes..

The girl, the small girl with the innocence of a kid and the assets of a lady is killing him like anything..

She is his...

K still couldn't believe the fact that he got engaged already..

He badly wanted to be there..

But, he couldn't..

The nervousness and all the harmonal rush were happening to him since the morning...

When the engagement time striked, his heart was completely in Karaikkudi..

He just wanted to leave everything and go just to see that face..

The face that's keeping him sleepless all these days..

He wanted to call her way before..

The conservative nature of their family stopped him..

He just waited for the night, so that he could call her..

He is more than excited..

More than nervous..

More than disappointed..

And,what not?

His thought string gets cut when Sanjay, his bestie, touches his shoulder..

K turns back..

Sa-Enna machan..

Ipdiye baa nu ukkandhu phone ey paathutu iruka..

K stands and smiles..

After all, Sanjay is his only tamizh friend after reaching Delhi..

First and best friend too..

K-Chumma dhan da..

Phone ah paathutu irundhen..

S-Phone ah paathadhula thappu illa..

Verum karuppu screen ah baa nu paathutu irundhadhu dhan sandhegama iruku..

Kya baiya? Koi pyaar ka masla hai kya??

(Wat bro? Any love issues?)

K taps his shoulder..

Bas pyaar da..

Koi masla nahi..

(Love only da..No issues)

Sa-Edhu? Love ah?

Enna da solra???

K- Vidu da..

Swallows the lumps..

He hugs him..

S-Hey, sister romba azhagu da..

Adharsh Jodee, he winks..

K taps his shoulder..

Sa-You love her so much man..

Sa-Chalo..Dinner sapda polaam..

Once they come back to their room,

Sa- Machan nee thoongu..

K-Enga irukaru machan avaru?

Sa-Lab I guess..

Anga dhan vara sonnaru..

K-Okay okay.. Bye..

***

K smiles on saying her name..

Mullai...

Honey drips through his larynx..

The name has so much power..

He hasn't met her..

He hasn't spoke with her..

He doesn't even know whether she likes him or not..

Just bcos, they got engaged, it doesn't mean she likes him..

Being a fragile girl, she must have nodded her head for her family's sake..

The thought can give him heartbreaks instantly..

He wants to check it up with her..

Directly..

He knows that he is a good judge when it comes to reading ppl's mind..

Probably because of the military training and discipline?

He loves her?

No..

He isn't..

It is too early to love..

He has something for her in his heart..

He himself can't decipher what it is..

He wants to tear up the thin sheet between that feeling and the love..

By then, he receives a call..

It's from Moorthy..

K-Hello Anne..

Moo-Dei Kathiru epdi da iruka?

K-Super ah iruken nae..

Neenga epdi irukeenga..

Moo-Nallarken da..

They talk for sometime and Moorthy sends him Mu's number and Vetri's number..

Tbc..
