Days were going in a slowedup pace and Ashwathi grew closer to Aryan with the project that was going on in their firm .  He did beleive she was harmless and that she did her past deeds out of frustration during breakup phase . He liked her as a friend and his bad time he couldn't figure out her original intention . She did speak to Sitara and the conversations were mostly based on Aryan. Sitara was convincing herself that she don't have bad intentions and as Aryan felt her to be a good friend to rely on and somehow she felt him distancing from her. 

Aryan was working seriously on a project and the deadline was very crucial that they have to submit the plan within 2 hours and he was working without even eating or sleeping. Sitara called him and he cut the call without wasting a second and she was calling him again and again which irritated him .

Ashwathi " pch enna Aryan idhu thirumba thirumba call pannikite iruka  cut panna vela irukunu koodava theriyaadhu . eppo dhaa iva valara poraalo "

Aryan though he was irritated he turned to Ashwathi and said " edhaavadhu avasarama irukum oru nimisham idha paathuko naa vandhururen "and left the place making Ashwathi sigh as she tried all ways to part them away but still he isn't even giving a loop of chance to manipulate . 

Aryan went out and attended the call composing himself and asked " edhuku tara thirumba thirumba call pannikite iruka ?"

Sitara " hey adhu innaiku karthik raja siroda concert irukulla pa adhula paadrenla adhaan endha costume podradhunu kekalaamnu koopte choose panni solreengala ?first concertaa konjam bayama iruku "

That was the last straw for Aryan and he started shouting " ariviruka d unaku konjamaachu ? naa inga saapdaama thoongaama vela paathutruke thirumba thirumba call pannavum ennavo edhonu call panna costume select panna solra ... " he let out a sigh and on the other side Sitara was panting heavily as she didn't expect him to react this way. This was her first public concert and she wished to look presentable and called Aryan not only to get suggestion but also to calm down her nervous mind. She mumbled " sorry " and cut the call delierately which made Aryan think if he overreacted . 

He was working on completing  the deadline faster only to get to her concert and witness her singing . He was irritated by this and decided to concentrate on the work and didn't even budge to look at the costumes she has sent . Ayaan has accompanied her to her concert as it was pooja holidays and did witness all that happened and said " naa dhaa sonnenla call pannaadha andhaalu vaalu vaalunu kathuvaannu ketiya ?"

Sitara said " tch vidu edho busyaa irundhurupaaru "

Ayaan " but the way he is reacting is not at all good.... Ashwathi pathi sonnene  ketiya avarta ?"

Sitara sighed and said " nethu pesalaamnu nenache ava intention avlo nalla padala nu naa sonnaale onnu enna distract panraaru illa amaidhiyaayruraaru enaku theriyum un velaya paarungura maari "

Ayaan sighed and said " edhum seriya padala enaku paathuko "

Here Ashwathi smirked and asked " rombba importanto Aryan "

Aryan first time did the mistake in his life and shared the fight they had said " neramkaalam theriyaama costume select panna solra. eppo dhaa serious aaga poraanu therla ellaathulayum velayaatu  thanam "

Ashwathi smirked within herself and said " ipdi irundha irritate aagumla unaku .... ellaathukum unnaye depend panni iruka  "

Aryan sent a look towards her and said " vettiya pesaama work panna nalla irukum ." and continued working thinking within himself " ava ipdi irukuradhu dhaa enaku avalta pidichadhe . kochukitaalo ? seri concertla poi paathukalaam "

He completed the work and started off to the concert while Ashwathi said she wishes to see her performing. Aryan nodded his head and took her along with him to the concert. Sitara was getting ready in the backstage and she was waiting for a phone call from him which she didn't receive making her sigh with disappointment. 

Next it was her turn to perform with a guy for ragasiyamaai song . She was half way through her performance and that's when she noticed Aryan standing in the first row capturing her singing with a smile and eyes filled with pride . Sitara was shocked and surprised and by that moment she forgot everything while the lyrics she sang next made both their eyes lock and not move anywhere else and after very longgggg time they felt the butterflies in their stomach

unknowingly he got reminded of their first kiss and he wetted his lips subconciously while she blushed reading what he could've thought about .

The performance was over and he rushed to the backstage without minding anything and Sitara was standing at a distance away from the backstage as it was her last performance in the concert and its enough if she get back at the last . Aryan came near her and she smiled at him and then turned her face making him chuckle .

Aryan inched near to her and said " enna rowdy madamku kovam polaye en mela ?"

Sitara looked at him and said " thirumba thirumba call pannadhuku sorry aana kovam dhaan evlo aasaya costume select panna keten . evlo nervousaa irunchu theriyuma ungala paakura vara . "

Aryan smiled and held her hand saying " nervousaa irupanu theriyum adhaan directaa concert vandhuralaamnu velaya seekram mudika paathe . ini once call cut panna purunjuko thirumba thirumba call panni irritate pannaadha"

Sitara looked at him with puppy eyes and said " sorry aryaneyy . while he wished to pull her closer to him and kiss her but refrained himself from doing so and checked on her costume . She looked etharal in that pink colour costume but tried of teasing her and said " aama enna costume idhu ?"

Sitara face fell and asked" en Arya nalla illaya ?"

Aryan smirked and said " mmmm..... ok... not much impressive "

while Sitara remembered Ashwathi's text which she got as soon as she went to backstage .

Ashwathi " sitara romba nalla paadnada aana en costume ipdi choose pannirka ? Aryan busyaa irundha entayaachu ketrukalaamla avan facey dissapoint aayruchu . konjam fashion sense improve panna paaru sitara "

which she connected within herself and thought Aryan was getting disappointed with her more often by her fashion sense or the way she is behaving which was kindling her insecurities more and more. unknowingly she was afraid on losing him to Ashwathi as she herself have noted the instances where Aryan have said to her about Ashwathi's way of presenting herself during meetings and the way she dresses and Ashwathi's intentions towards Aryan was clearly confusing her .

Sitara smiled out hiding her turmoils which Aryan thought that she is confused on how she performed and said " hey solla marandhute ... romba azhaga paaduna ma adhum nijamaai nee ennai theendinaaiku oru feel kudutha paaru.... romba kashtappattu control panne " 

Sitara blushed hearing to his flirty talks and said " aama apdiye feel panna mattum edhaachu panna poreenga paarunga . neenga adhukulaam seri pattu vara maateenga "

Aryan was offended by the way she was always saying he isn't fit to romance and this time he looked around to check whether anyone are around and as he found noone he pulled her by hip and took her to a secluded place and came out after 5 minutes adjusting his shirt while she came out completely flushed and he bent near her and whispered " inime edhukum seri pattu vara maatenu solluva ?" to which she nodded no rapidly making him chuckle .

More than being happy Sitara was actually confused by the way he is reacting to her and the things she hear about him is absolutely the opposite of what she see. she was confused as well felt the trust she had in him slowly fading away by seeing him with Ashwathi. Ashwathi came to the backstage and talked well with her and asked " Aryan kelambalaama time aachu naalaiku early sight visit iruku "

Sitara was looking at him with question on whether he will stay or go with her and Aryan didn't even think once and left saying "marandhe poite thanks for reminding . ippo kelambuna dhaa veetuku 12kaachu pove . Tara bye paathuko veetuku poitu text panniru " and left the place kissing her forehead  creating a void in her heart while she left to her home with Ayaan . 

The days went as usual and Aryan returned back to his college completing his internship succesfully thinking hereafter he and Sitara might not have any problems as the long distance was the only drawback which was creating misunderstandings between them but he forgot that physical distance doesn't create misunderstandings until they are closer by heart .

PRESENT 

The engagement was over and Sitara didn't even spare a glance at Ayaan which hurted him a lot . Sitara left the dining after she washed her hands and while Aryan was about to leave Ayaan stood in middle of his way blocking him and said " sorry "

Aryan looked at him with a blank face while Ayaan said " oru friendaa naa pannadhu ellaam enaku seriya dhaa therunjuchu aana.... indha motha messkum naa dhaa kaaranamnu nenaikela naa oru friendaa thothuten . theriyaama pannenu solla maaten puriyaama panten am sorry "

Aryan didn't say anything but his look said " you sorry isn't gonna mend anything " and left the place leaving back a guilt tripped Ayaan . The bride and the groom were made to sit in the stage and as it was nearly close to 11 pm there were just family and friends left out and everyone were going back to their home  . Aryan went near his car while Sandhya came there and stood before him and asked " veetuku vaa "

Aryan looked at her and said " en veetuku dhaa anni poren "

Sandhya glared at him and said " naa namma veetuku vara sonne Arya "

Aryan looked at her and Arjun who was looking at him expectantly from the distance and said" anni please enna harsha pesa vaikaadheenga enna vitrunga . neenga nenaikuradhu nadakadhu "

with that he went to his car and sat in it while Sandhya left out a sigh and went inside the mandap. while Aryan let out a sigh and started the car while he sensed someone sitting next to him in the passenger seat . Aryan turned to the passenger seat to find Sitara in it and clenched his jaw while she showed all her teeth and said " enna arya apdi paakureenga ohh en azhagula mayangiteengala ?"

Aryan averted his gaze and glared at her asking " en carla nee enna panra erangud "

Sitara smiled and said " ada enna pa nee un car en carnu chinna pulla thanama pesitruka . eranga mudiyaadhu . "

Aryan left out a sigh and said " seri appo naa eranguren to which she asked " en kooda vandha control slip aayrumonu bayama ?"

Aryan at back at his seat and raised an eyebrow at her and smirked answering " control pathi enkitta pesriya nee ? "

While Sitara remembered their intimate moment and the bitter happenings that happened the very next day . she pushed away those thoughts and said " appo en odureenga enna veetla vidunga . "

Aryan let out a breath and said " unaku oru dhadava sonna puriyave puriyaadha d? "

Sitara didn't even pay heed to what he told and looked at him with a smirk as she saw the playlist of his car having 80 percent of the songs she sung and he noticed her smirk and rubbed his nape starting off the car without argueing anymore . 

Sitara smiled and asked " full updated pola ... naa paadinenu naane marandha songslaam iruku "

To which Aryan remained silent and she started playing some Ar rahman songs while he was not able to comprehend on what he is feeling, what he needs or where this is leading. The car was filled with silence while Sitara started speaking " pesela onnum therla.... neenga foreign poiteenganu therunjadhum romba udanju poiten . yosichu paakela dhaa therunjuchu evlo periya muttaal thanam pannirken oru moment of impulselanu . ovvoru recording pogelayum naama mumbaila record pannadhu dhaa nyaabagam varum. evlovo dhadava tharanu yaaro koopdradha ketu neenganu nenachu odiruke .... pesa dhairiyam varala ... face panna dhairiyam varala ... at times ellaathayum vitutu unga kitta odirlaamanu thonum aana enga veruthurupeengalonu.... naragam aryan. "

Aryan was listening to all she was saying still he had no expression in his face his hold on steering increased which she didn't note due to the darkness in the car. Sitara continued " neengalum naanum  ivlo varusham  pirinjurundhadhe podhum aryan. its suffocating ... I need us back . "

Aryan halted the car and said " veedu vandhuruchu " while she looked at him with tears flowing down and the moment she was about to get down she felt a tug in her hand and the next moment she was in bone crushing hug of Aryan . She gasped and smiled while Aryan hugged her much closer to him mumbling " bayama irukud ..... can you feel we are obsessed over each other .... love pannirndha ivlo perusa nadandhurukaadho ennavo we got obsessed over each other .... innoru seperation ennaala yosichu kooda paaka mudiyaadhu thara... purunjuko .... naama maathi maathi hurt dhaa pannikuvom.... ippo nallaa irukum again we will be back to square 1 "

Sitara looked at him and said " othukure sanda varum dhaa ... aana don't you think we deserve a chance Arya ? neither can i live without you nor you can .... pona dhadava panna thappa pannaama irupome "

Aryan tightened his hold and even he wished for another chance but something was stopping him from giving in .... Sitara cupped his face and said " ok.... oru 6 months ... lets give it another chance... oknu thonuna lets live the life we wished all these years ... illa hurt dhaa pannikuromna .... pirinjuralaam .... "

Aryan was thinking the same and by now he have completed all the works he had in his singapore branch .... he was actually here with an idea of inaugrating a branch of his interior firm in Chennai and just lied that he would be returning to Singapore in 20 days . He thinked and thought of giving it a chance and nodded " ok " to which sitara hugged him closer to his neck and cried all her sorrows in his arms while his eyes were shedding silent tears of yearning . 

They both hugged each other trying to find the comfort in each other's arms and she pulled back from him kissing his forehead and caressing his hair while though he wished to kiss her held himself back which was not unnoticed by Sitara . She thought of taking it slow and left to her home making him let out a sigh of relief . though he knew they had a long way to go he felt his heart light and something which was crushing his heart all years was vanished by that moment and even his lips curved a little. he looked at her home and left to his home with a happy heart and they both had it in their mind to somehow make it work though she was vocal about it and he was silently manifesting in his heart ... as they have already realised that they both are each other's solace in solitude  .

THE NEXT 2 CHAPTERS WOULD HAVE THE FINAL PART OF PAST AND FROM THEN IT WOULD BE BREEZY SO CHILLUP GUYS INI NO AZHUGAACHI AND HARD SENTIMENTS 😂
