Amrutha remained silent and the car ride is silent after that. Rishi looked at Amrutha once, it is clear that she is struggling to control the blush.

Rishi- " i can feel you ammini"

Amrutha tried hard, composed herself and said, " kiruku pudichuruchu unaku.. pesama vandia ootu"

Rishi- " apadi pesatha ammini.. unna neeyae kiruku nu solikitalum, enaku athu valikuthu"

Amrutha snapped her head to him with boiling anger and asked," ennathu?"

Rishi- " enaku en maman ponna, athavathu unna pudichuruku ammini.. so replace panitaen"

Amrutha- " anna enaku unna pudikala.. ", she sharply told.

Rishi- " athu thaan enakum venum.. because i like it.. naan padikura stories, pakura padathula kooda intha forced marriage, kidnapped marriage ah thaan choose panuven. nee itha pathi ellam enna ninaikura? enna journal choose panuva ammini?"

Amrutha- " atha pathi yosikurathuku munnadi unna eppo savadikalam nu thaan ninaikuren", she fist her hand in irritation. She completely understood all the inner meanings of his words.

Rishi- " all the best ammini, nee eppo enna kolluvanu naan wait panitu iruken"

Amrutha - " mudialada saamy.. ayyo ...", she sighed heavily. literally Rishi made every second tough for Amrutha to handle. Rishi chuckled and concentrated on the drive. He planned to have remaining fun in the office.

Within minutes, They reached the office. They settled there and started to do their work. Rishi called one of his team member.

Member- " Yes sir"

Rishi- " Neenga pora valila kadaila kuduthu intha pendrive la songs download panna sollunga. maman ponnu, athai paiyan relationships ku related ana ella songs um copy panna sollunga", Amrutha looked at him the next moment with shock.

Member looked at him with a frown and asked, " really sir?"

Rishi tilt his head and asked, " yaen naan paatu keka koodatha?"

Member- " kekalam sir.. sure sir", he quickly grabbed the pen drive and left.

Amrutha - " un atakasam thanga mudiala.. romba aatam podurathuku munnadi, oru visayam nalla ganbagam vachuko, en appa sema kovathula irukaaru.. rendu kudumbamum mutikutu iruku.. family othukama nee ninaikara ethuvum nadakathu"

Rishi smirked and said, " itha ellam un appan unna pekurathuku munnadi yosichurukanum.." he said casually while Amrutha glared at him, when she opened her mouth to say something, " inga paaru ammini, un appan mela mattum illa, rendu kudumbathu melaium naan semma gandula iruken.. kaila sikatum vachukaren. enna paadu paduthuren nu mattum paaru"

Amrutha looked at him with a blank expression and asked, " nee kovama irukiah?"

Rishi- " ofcourse yes.. ivanunga sanda potutu namala pirichutanga.. avangaluku pudikalaina avanga othungirukanum... namma ellariaum pirika avangaluku urimai kidaiyathu.. pethathukaga avaloda feelings ah namakulla thina koodathu"

Amrutha- " thappa pesatha Rishi.. ithellam argument ku vena okay va therialam, but reality la illa."

Rishi- "athu unoda nambikkai. unaku pasam kanna maraikuthu.."

Amrutha- " apadi paatha Ram mamavum thaan.."

Rishi- " naan Ramu-vaium sethu thaan thituraen.. I deserve to know my relations. naan uravugaluku evlo yenguren nu therinjum enkita sollama vitathu thappu.. visayam therinju naan thedum pothu kooda illathathum thappu"

Amrutha- " athuku ethavathu karanam irukalam"

Rishi- " irukum.. athe mathiri ipo enakum karanam iruku, so naanum en istathuku pannuven"

Amrutha sighed and said," nee vithandavatham panra"

Rishi- " illa naan ullatha solren. Karanam yaruku thaan illa. Ore visaythuku ovvorutharukum oru point of view irukum, athuku avangaluku valid reason um iruku.. atha ellam purinchu nadanthukanum. mathavangalukum serthu namale mudivu edukurathu thappu"

Amrutha stared at him and said, " nee avanga thitura mathiri illa. indirect ah ennaium annaviaum solra mathiri iruku"

Rishi smirked and said, " itha vida direct ah epadi solla mudium ammini? naan ipadi thaan react panuven nu ninaichu nee enakum sernthu mudivu eduthuruka", Amrutha looked at him without even a blink.

Rishi- " Visayam theirnjathum naan vitutu poiruven nu thaane nianchu enkita unmaia sollama enakum sernthu neengalae decide paneenga. Ipo naan pogala, un decision thappu nu agiduchu.. ipo un karanatha vachukitu enna prayojanam?"

Amrutha- " nee en situation la irunthiruntha theirum.."

Rishi- " naan inum konja un situation thaan enakum irukum, but naan atha vera mathiri handle pannuvaen.. paathu kathuko"

Amrutha - " purila, en situation na?"

Rishi - " sila visayangala naan unaku solla mudiathu ammini, neeya than theirnjukanum..", he said in the same way like Amrutha. Yes! Amrutha too said in the same way when they travelled alone, on the day he indirectly proposed for marriage.

Amrutha glared at him deadly.

Rishi-" thalaivalium kachalum thanaku vantha theirum..", Amrutha nodded her head as no. He is intentionally doing everything and there is no doubt it. Amrutha remained silent thinking about everything that happened. Rishi started to sing to change the mood of Amrutha, even though he is upset, he didn't want her to feel for it. Raghu and Amrutha already suffered by hiding the truth.

Rishi started to sing, 'athaiku piranthavlae.. alagi ninravalae...', Amrutha looked at him via corner of her eyes.

Rishi continued without looked at her, 'paruvarm sumanthu varum paavadai thavaniyae...", He stopped looked up and asked, " ammini, nee pavadai thavani potrukiah?"

Amrutha glared at him.

Rishi- " athuku munnadi, nee paruvathuku.. i mean vayasuku eppo vantha? cha naan unna appo paka miss paniten, photo vachurukiah?", Amrutha closed her eyes in embarassement while Rishi continued, "hey un reaction ah paatha santhegama irukae.. vayasuku vanthutiah illaya?"

Amrutha stood up in anger, neared Rishi and started to beat him, They both had little beating fight. Yes Rishi blocked her and also beat her a little.

Rishi- " paliku pali.. puliku puli... kaila adichathuku kai la adichuten.. en chest la adichalla, iru di inaiku unna", Amrutha startled for a second and started to jog away. Rishi is right, Amrutha beat him in his chest in a flow..

Rishi- " enga odura.. men and women are equal nu pesuvalla.. nillu di, inaiku nee adicha adiah naan thirupi kudukama vidamaten.."

Amrutha- " Rishi noo... sonna kelu.. over ah panatha.. this is wrong... naan venumna sorry kekuren.. vitru"

Rishi- " sorry ah, athellam pechu pecha irukum pothu solirukanum... ipo kai kalupu agiruchu.."

Amrutha giggled at the way he said while whining, " Rishi please.. vendam"

Rishi- " athellam nee en mela kai vaikurathuku munnadi yosichurukanum..", After a little play, Rishi caught her and pulled her towards him which made Amrutha dashed on him.

Amrutha doubted whether he will touch her for real, Because she can't come to a solution about anything. She cann't guess what he will do. Amrutha looked at him with excitement and fear with little trembling. But Rishi hugged her gently and then tightly. His embrace relaxed her.

They heard a door knock which made them to move aside and sat in their chair. Rishi yelled 'come in'. Vivek came there with the sleeping baby.

Rishi- " vichu mama,.. vanga vanga" .. utkarunga, he got up from the seat. Amrutha looked at him with doubt.

Vivek- " avan romba thedinaan nandhu, athaan thookitu vanthaen",

Rishi- " Vichu naan oru CBI officer theriuma?"

Vivek blinked and said, " athu ipo thoongitaan, aana mulichurukum pothu thedinaan"

Rishi- " inum nee enna namabalala.. ", he said with a i know you look.

Vivek- " sari vidra.. naan thaan unkooda irukalam nu vanthaen. athuku enna ipo?"

Rishi- " apadi unmaiah solla vendiathu thane? naan enna vendamna solren..", Rishi placed the baby in the cradle and hugged Vivek. Vivek too hugged him.

Rishi- 'enna pakurathuku ethuku vichu reason unaku? mama kudutha idea va?'

Vivek- " avanuku thaan ipadi naan pachaiah matikura mathiri idea thonum..", he said  annoyingly. Amrutha and Rishi chuckled.

Rishi- " Vichu mama, enaku unga veetla irukura yaar photo-vum enkita illa katuriah?"

Vivek- " inga vaa.. ", he started to show everyone photos in his home explaining the relationship. When he showed Harshavarshini photo,

Rishi stared at the photo without blink and asked, ' vichu, Harshu enna padikura?", Vivek answered.

Rishi - " Vichu, Harshu va en agu-ku kari thariah?", Amrutha and Vivek looked at him with shock. They didn't expect him to ask directly.

They heard a knock and Rishi muttered a stiff 'come in' which made Head to come in. Rishi placed the mobile down, stood up and saluted.

Head- " sajini case la enna decide paniruka?"

Rishi- " Tarun ah kandu pudichutom sir, poi arrest panitu vara vendiathu thaan"

Head - " nee pogatha, team la yarayachum anupu.."

Rishi- " naan yaen sir poga koodathu? this is my case..."

Head looked and him and said, " athu romba simple, nee pona avan uyiroda varathe doubt thaan. nee kai vaikama kootitu vara mata"

Rishi- ' Naan venumna janda melam kachari vechu kootitu varava sir?", he teased.

Head- " Rishi.", he shouted angrily.

Rishi- " seriously sir..", he said in an unbelieveable tone and continued, " aavana ninacha kavalapadureenga?"

Head - " atha apuram discuss panalam.. naan palaya case kudukurathu thane unaku pudikala..ipo current case kudukaren, Simon oru case pakuraan, suspect ghost. poi pudichutu vaa. naan Tarun ah kootitu vera aala anupirukaren"

Rishi- " but sir...", he tried to interrupt but,

Head- " End of discussion.. Simon will be here in minutes.. be ready", he left.

Rishi ranked his hand through his hairs in frustration.

Vivek- " enna aachu nandhu? ethuku tension? konjam detailed ah sollu"

Rishi- " Tarun nu oru pakki vichu.. Sajini nra ponna kalayanam panikitaan. 3 months la antha ponnu iranthuta. kondrukanga. 20 varusham aachu. ipo enaku itha kuduthanga. Enaku Tarun melaium avan family melaium thaan doubt ah irunthathu.. So spy panen..", Rishi took a file fromt the table and gave Vivek. Amrutha too neared them and looked at the file.

Rishi- " Tarun amma voda call list eduthapo oru suspiscoius number ku adikadi pesurathu theriuthu, so antha number-ha oru detective vachu trace panaen. Athe nerathula phone number location-aium address aium kandupudika sonen.. Rendu vera vera place ah irunthathu...

Amrutha- " Tharun thirudiruka chance iruka? anthe school la Tarun 15 years munnadi vela pathara?"

Rishi- " yes ammini"

Vivek- " appo antha phone location"

Rishi- " athu bangalore la kaatuthu.. anga ulla officers help oda addressla poi paathu visarichathoda mattum illama, antha pakkam irukura CCTV footages-um collect panathula Tarun thaan anga irukaan nu theirnjukitom.. but avan ippo praveen nra perla oru ponna kalyanam panikitu rendu kulanthaigaloda irukaan"

Amrutha- " what?", she is completely shocked.

Rishi- " yes ammini. ipo sajini case kaga arrest panna athula pathikapaa porathu, avana kalyanam panna ponnum antha kulanthaium thaan. sajini ku justice kidaika ava parents 20 years ah poraditu irukaanga, aana intha paradhesi...", he took a breathe to control himself and said, " avana arrest panna naan bangalore poga koodatham atha thaan head solraru"

Amrutha- " nee bangalore ellam onum poga vendam", she immediately said and Rishi glared at her.

Vivek- ' athane, avan inga vanthathum pathukalam nandhu", he too supported.

Rishi- " inga vanthuta custody maridum vichu. ennala onum panna mudiama poidum.. yosichu paaru, ipo sajini ku justice vangi thara naan edukura step nala inum moonu uyir bathikapada poranga.. avana epadi naan summa vidurathu?"

They heard a knock, After Rishi's permission a person came in.

Member saluted and said, " Sir, Tharun ah arrest panna enna appoint panirukanga", Rishi sighed.

Member- " neenga procedure soliteenganna naan paniduven"

Rishi- "but, i want to deal him by myself"

Member- " Sure sir. He will be in our place"

Rishi- " and... "

Member- " i will make sure no one knows about it Sir", He ended the statement for which RIshi smirked and nodded. Member saluted and left the place.

Amrutha- " naala team, un head theirama panrathuku plan ketutu poraru", Rishi smiled.

Vivek-" intha kalavarathula epadi ivlo vela panna?"

Rishi- " antha detective details collect pannave 3 days eduthukitaaru vichu.. antha gap la thaan bangalore la trace panna solirunthaen.. athe pola bangalore poi avana arrest panna order submit pannum pothu thaan Ramu va pakanumnu ketaen.. ipo thaan order ah olunga read panirupaaru athaan reject paniten nu solitu poraru.."

Amrutha- " hmm, ivlo vela pathiruka theriave illa"

Soon they heard a knocking sound for which Rishi grant permission. Simon came in.

Simon- " case file unga kita kuduka sonanga.. unga kooda join panna sonanga"

Rishi got the file and said, "utkarunga Simon", he seated. There is a moment of silence.

Rishi smirked and got up saying, " Vichu papa va pathuko.. vaanga simon naama poi antha pei ah pudichutu vantharalam"
