Days passed just like that,Vikram and Mithra's bond grew stronger.Their cutest phonecalls,meet ups and texts made their bond more beautiful.

But Arun's behaviour didn't settle well with Mithra.Mithra noticed him following her few times but she didn't tell anyone.She was in guilt in the past that she was the reason behind his suspension,if she said them again,it would definitely create a problem,so she remained silent.

One day morning,she was there huffing and puffing with her impaired scooter She tried starting it again and again but failed.
'Ayoo,yen ipdi pannudhu... time ku poganume naanu..',she sighed and her mobile rang.

She picked up the call and it was from Bala.
'Sollunga na..'
'Mithu yenga irukka?Timr aachu innu konja nerathula shoot aarambichurum..',Bala said.

'Anneyyy en scooter pochu ney..Makkar pannudhu..', she said sighing.
'Ayyayoo,naanga yaaravadhu varatuma?',Bala asked.
'Illa la ney,naaan vandhuruven..Ungalukellam vela irukum..', she said.

'Serii ma,Rakshan oda questions ellaam unta dhaana iruku,bathram..', Bala said.
'Hmm serii ney..',she hung up the call.

Her eyes fell on Arun who was starring at her, standing away from her.
'Ayoo ivan vera nikkiraane..',she rolled her eyes and noticed a car stopping infront of her.

She felt relieved and happy when her eyes fell on the car and she found who's car it is.She smiled widely when the person got out from the car,'Vikram eyy!!'

'Oi, smile machine!Nee enna panra inga ninnutu?',he asked.
'Ivan enna Mithra kitta pesitu irukaan?',Arun's anger raised up.

'Illa Vikram ey,en scooter ennaachunu therila..Start eh aaga maatikidhu..Serii neenga enga inga?',Mithra asked.
'Illa ma work vishayam ah indha pakkam vandhe..Paatha vazhila nee ninnutu iruka..',he said.

'Serii vaa naan unna drop panre..',Vikram said.
'Sure ah?Ungaluku late aagalala?',she asked.
'Sure ma,Nee va..Naan mechanic ku call panni un scooter ah eduthuka solren..',Vikram said and she nodded smiling.

Soon the mechanic who Vikram called reached there and they both left in Vikram's car while Arun was screaming in anger inside.He started his bike and followed them.

'Iniku shoot irukaa ma?',Vikram asked.
'Aama Vikram ey,aana naan host pannala..Rakshan anna dha panraaru..Questions lam ready panradhu dhan en vela indha dhadava',she replied and he nodded.

On the way,a group of people with political party's flag and police were blocking rhe road.
'Aiyoo,enna idhu ullaye poga mudiyaadhu polaye..',Vikram sighed stopping.
'Ippo epdi poradhu..',she huffed and dialed and Preethi.

'Hello akkaa'
'Mithra,yenga iruka?',Preethi asked.
'Akka,naan inga road entrance la dhan iruken..Aana ulla vara mudila..Yedho katchi kootam pola..',Mithra said.

'Ayoo,nee safe ah dhana iruka?',Preethi asked.
'Haan ka naan safe dhan,Aana Rakshan anna oda questions ellaam enkitta dhan iruku...',Mithra said and Rakshan's call came in second line.

'Akka irunga naan koopdren..',she hung up and picked Rakshan's call.
'Mithra kutty,enga ma irukka?',Rakshan asked.
'Anney namma office road ku konjam munnaadi dha iruken,aana ulla edho katchi kootam pola ney,ulla vara mudila..',Mithra explained her situation.

'Deii nee safe dhana?',Rakshan asked.
'Naa safe ah dhan ney iruken,unga questions kam enkitta dhan iruku..',
'Aama la, seri ellaathayum whatsapp pannu,naa paathukuren..',Rakshan said.
'Seri ney'

'Safe ah iru ma,veetuku po illana,unaku dhan shoot illala..Ellaam clear aagirum madhiyathukullaa,nee aproma vaa',Rakshan said.
'Serii ney',she hung up his call.

'Hmm,iniku apo namaku velai illa..',she sighed in relief.
'Serii appo naan unna veetla drop pannidre',Vikram said.
'Veetukkaa...Bore adikume.. Aama neenga yenga poreenga?',she asked him.
'Naan yenga, office ku dhan',he said.
'Appo naanum varen',she said his eyebrows jumped.

'Yenga?Office kaa..Maa anga vandhu nee enna panna pora?',Vikram asked.
'Bore adichu veetla irukuradhuku badhil ah unga kooda office ku vandhalavadhu time pogum..', she said excitedly.
'Maa..', before he could speak he stopped looking at her puppy eyes.

'Naanum varene Vikram eyyy..Pleaseeeeee!!!',she pleaded and he chuckled.
He nodded his head and started driving towards his office.

'Yenga poraanga..',Arun thought and continued to follow them.While on their way they got stuck in a traffic.
'Idhey maaru oru traffic la dhaana namma first meet pannom?',Vikram asked and she smiled widely.

'Aamaaaa!!!!Idhellam nyabagam vechurukeengala?',Mithra asked.
'Pinna nyabagam illaya..',he smiled and she smiled more.

Arun lost them in that traffic and they went far away from his eyes.
'Cha...',he sighed in frustration.
'I can never leave you Mithra!Yaarukum ennaala unna vittu kudukka mudiyadhu!'

They reached his office.He parked his car and she started walking forward with him.Vikram has already stepped in while she was there standing looking at the office.
She felt like a queen when she was welcomed by security and gentle breeze that made her hair fly in the air gave her all that queen kind of vibes.

'Vikram ey!!Naan dhan ippo indha office oda CEO!Neenga ennoda PA!',she snapped at him and he chuckled inwardly.
'Seringa madam!Ippo naan enna pannanu nga madam?',he asked.

'Ah!Follow me',she walked past him but came back in reverse again.He looked at her cluelessly.Mithra took the coolers from his coat's pocket and worn it before flipping her hair.
'Adengappa!',Vikram's lips curved upside down and she started walking forward.

He stood there admiring her antics and she turned back to look at him.
'Enna Vikran ey,ulla varalaya?', she asked.
'Idho varen nga madam..',he said and followed her.

Everyone greeted them a good morning and Sathish was in a sweet surprise looking at Mithra.
'Partner enna partner..Indha ponna kootitu vandhurukeenga..',Sathish asked Vikram but before he could answer,Mithra turned towards everyone.

'Hello everyone!Inime Mr.Vikram Adhitya unga boss kedaiyaadhu,naan dhan unga boss!Inime naan solradha dha neengalam kekanum.. Understood?',she said strictly in her innocent tone.

'Ahh mam,neenga cwc channel la dhana work panreenga?',a woman asked
'Ah aama nga..Aana inime naan dha unga boss!'

'Ayoo partner ava settaiya aarambichutaa partner ava..',Vikram said and ran towards her.
'Maa podhum ma..Vaa ma..',he pleaded.
'Vikram ey!Irunga!',she stopped him.

Everyone was so shocked witnessing their strict,quiet,stern and sincere boss was pleading infront of the little woman.
'Maa vaa ma nee please ma..',he said.

'Serii neenga romba kenjureenga..Polaamm..',Mithra nodded and left inside with him.
'Ada, ipdilam kooda namma partner pesuvaara..',Sathish thought and followed them to show Vikram some files.

She straightly walked into his cabin and settled herself on his seat rightfully.Vikram who was standing at the cabin's entrance pressed his lips together and raised his eyebrows,resting both his hands on his waist.

'Vikram ey.. Aprom andha..Adhu rnna bha..dha..',her tongue rolled.
'Bha bha bha',he imitated her.
'Aiii Vikram eyyy!!!',she stood up from his seat, raising her hand to hit him and Vikram started running.
'Vikram ey odaadheenga',she started to chase him around.

She finally caught him and held his ear while he was bending to her height.
'Maa..Valikudhu maa..',he whined.
'Nalla valikatumm.. Ennaiya kindal ah panreenga..',she screwed his ear and he yelped.

'Enna door thorandhuruku..', Sathish peeped in and saw them.
'Partner!',he gasped in shock and they pulled back.

'Partner..Nee eppo partner ulla vandha?',Vikram asked rubbing his nape in embarassment.
'Ipdi kadhavu therandhirundha yaaru venaalum ulla vandhuruvaanga partner',Sathish teased.

'Maa thangachi,ivaru enga boss ma.. Konjam paathu ma..',Sathish said to Mithra and they both laughed.

'Partner,andha KCP company oda files lam send pannanum partner,avanga namma company oda romba naala deal vechurkaanga,adhoda records and details kooda ketrukanga partner..Andha files lam unga cabin la dha iruku',Sathis informed.

'Serii partner,naan paathu sign panni vekiren,ready aanadhum koopdren',Vikram said.
'Serii partner',Sathish left.

'Hmm..Andha files lam enga vechen..',he searched in his table drawer.
'Haann andha cupboard ulla irukuu..',he got remembered and opened the cupboard to find the files in the upper most slab.

He pulled his rolling chair near the cupboard to climb.
'Vikram eyy..Naan edukuren Vikram eyy..',she came forward.
'Maa unaku height pathaadhu nu nenaikire ',he said.
'Illa enaku pathum,Naan yeri edukuren',she stubbornly said.
'Venaamnu sonnaa kekava pora..',he sighed and nodded leaving the space for her.
'Haannn!',she climbed up the chair enthusiastically.

'Maa paathu keela vilundhuraadha..',he said with concern.
'Adhaan keela neenga nikkireengalla..',she said confidently.

'Theriyudha Mithra?Red colour file uh! Red colour file uh!Red colour file uh..',he repeated.
'Saamyyy edukuren',she took the file in her hands and showed to him,'Idhaana?'

'Adhaan adhaan!',he said and the mobile ringing sound caught his attention which made him to loose his hold.The chair rolled and within seconds she fell on his hands perfectly.

She closed her eyes holding his arm tightly.Mithra slowly opened her eyes and met his who was already lost in her.
'Enna kannu da!', they both though similarly.Both of them was in a different world.

'Vikkram ey..',she whispered and he hummed in reponse.
'Kai Valikalaya?',she asked.
'Illa ma.. Yen?',he asked.
'Illa ipdi romba neran ah enna pudichutu irukeengale..',she raided her eyebrows and he removed his hold once she balanced herself to stand.

'Onnu aagalala unaku?',Vikram asked in concern.
'Illa Vikram ey,onnum aagala..Indhaanga file uh',she handed him the file
'Thank you ma..',he patted her head fondly.

Soon he started going through his file and his mobile rang again.
'Andha mechanic dhan..',he picked the call,'Ahn sollunga'

'Sir,scooter ready sir!Unga office ku veliya dhan scooter oda nikkiren..Neenga vandheenganna eduthukalam',the mechanic said and Vikram's face fell hearing him.
'Hmm seri okay,neenga park pannitu ponga.. Naan ungaluku gpay pannidre',
'Hmm seri sir',Vikran hung up the call.

'Yaaru Vikram ey?',she asked.
'Andha mechanic dhan,scooter ready ahm,veliya konduvandhu park pannirukaaru',Vikram said.
'Ohh apdiyaa serii serii, evlo aachu?',Mithra asked.

'Naan pay pannikuren vidu..',Vikram said.
'Ada adhela venaam Vikram ey,naan pannikiren..',she said and after a long argument she gave up.

'Serii..Ippo nee poiye aaganuma?',Vikram asked expecting her to stay for a bit.
'Aama Vikram ey,inneram andha kootam la clear aayirukum..Naan poikiren..',she said and he just nodded.

'Serii Vikram eyy!appo naan poitu varen..Byee',she was ready to go.
'Hmmm byee ma..Paathu po',he said and she nodded.

She reached the room's entrance and turned back to look at him.His face looked so dull comparing to few minutes.
'Achoo..Mogame vaadi pochu..Serii innum konja neram irundhutu polaam..',she thought but a notification came disturbing her.

It was from Preethi,'Where are you Mithra?Come soon Asap!You have something important'
'Chaa..Poi dhaan aaganum pola..',she sighed and looked at him once again.

He turned back and found her looking at him.
'Enna ma?Yedhaachu venuma?',he asked and she shook her head horizontally.
'Onnum illa Vikram ey..Byee!',she bidded bye and left his cabin.

Vikram walked towards the french window and looked at her who was driving out of his office.A sigh escaped his lips.

Mithra reached her office and parked her scooter.
The shoot was already over and everyone was packing up.
She saw Preethi arranging her table and Mithra walked towards her.

'Yen ka? Koopteenga!?',Mithra asked.
'Haann, therila da..Pugazh dhan unna koopda sonnaaru',Preethi informed and Mithra left to meet Pugazh
