CHAPTER-35

YASH
~~~~~

I was getting ready to go and pick up ketu.... That's when I got the call... That the meeting has pre-pond to today which was on ketu's sister marriage.... So.. I had to attend it.. I need to prepare some documents for it....

I called jay to pick her up... He went to pick up her... I informed papa.. That it may get late for me to come.. So see to ketu's arrival...

The meeting only got over by ten... I took my mobile and switched on it.. To see five missed call from dad and three missed calls from sesh... And both sending me msg to call soon ...

I called papa...
Me-" hello"
Papa-" where the hell are you?"
Me-" in the office.. Why?" And he explained me.. Ketu got angry.... And sesh and him tried contacting me.. But I switched off my phone...
Papa-" come home... Soon.. She left to the room... I don't know what she is doing..."
Me-" okay.. I will come soon... Just need to sign some papers.. And I will come.. Good night... You sleep.. I will take care.."
Papa-" you better be... I don't want my princess to be upset..."
Me-" sure... Papa ... Say to sesh too.."
Papa-" okay.."

Then I signed some papers that need my approval.. And said my assistant to take care of the company... And I will be back by Friday... And by twelve I went home... To see all the lights were off..

I went up my room to see it's locked... I tried my finger print pass code... But It was not opening... Think she closed it mechanically... Great... I knocked the door .... No response... I tried calling through intercom.. No response... Seems like she slept...

So, I decided to go and sleep in the guest room.. And I slept in the guest room...as I was so tried...

I woke up by yad calling me...

Me-" hello"
Yad-" where the hell are you?"
Me-"why do you all ask me the same question these days..."
Yad-" yash" said he is serious,..
Me-" in my house.. Where else..?"
Yad-" what?" Then he explained me.. That ketu, sesh has came to his house.. And ketu is very angry at me... And said to come soon...
Me-" okay... Meet you in twenty..."

I went out to see dad about to close the house...
Me-" papa.... I am here..." Shock was written all over dad's face...
Papa-" where were you...?"
Me-" will explain you.. Wait I get ready and come down..."
Papa-" make it fast...."

I went to my room... And got the fastest bath in my life and wore a embroidered white sherwani..
And took my phone and a purse and filled it with money.. And got down...

Me-" do I look okay?"
Papa-" okay.... Looking good... Do your hair.. Come on ....now say me"

We went out and he closed the house... And I explained him how I was stuck to guest room... He is laughing out loud.. And said I deserved it.... And we reached yad home.. And papa asked me get the things in car to get inside... And he went in... Idiot papa... I called some of the helpers.. And asked them to get the things inside...

I went towards the decorated prayer hall... After my mom.. It was yad's mom that always surpassed in decorating and jai's mom always surpassed in bring fun in parties.. And deepu's mom always do best foods... After a long time these three combined.. This time... So there won't be anything missing in this party...

As I was getting inside..and heard..

Ketu-" fine... I will sing.. No promise... That I will sing like a singer... "
Deepu-" good...come on.."
Ketu-" what should I sing... Recommend me?" Asking my.. No.. Our friends.. They become more close to her than me... I can't go in... Because of the many peoples... But I can see them... But they are not seeing me..
Everyone are giving her suggestion... And she was nervous.. Was to the understatement...

I slipped but I didn't lost the balance... without seeing the steps... And her gaze fall on me...
She started singing a Carnatic song seeing me with her beautiful voice... (the English translation.. I have given down...)

Aadaathu asangaathu vaa, Kannaaa *2

Nee aadaathu asangaathu vaa kannaaa*3 ( now everyone started started to see me... )

Un aadalil eerezhu bhuvanamum
asaindhu asaindhaaduthe
enave, aadaaathu asangaathu vaa kanna * 3 ( ad came near me.. And gave me a hit...)

aadalai kaana Kanna
un aadalai kana
Kanna
thillai ambalathu iraivanum, * 3

than, aadalai vittu,
inge, gokulam vanthar* 2 ( as she said those words like I came here to see you.. from my place to yours ..)

aathalinal, siru yaathavane
oru maamayil iragani maathavane
( so... show up yourself to me) ( I started moving towards her.. but she went away)

nee aadathu asangathu vaa, kanna....
Un aadalil eerezhu bhuvanamum
asaindhu asaindhaaduthe
enave, aadaaathu asangaathu vaa kanna

chinnanjiru padangal silambolithidume*2
adai sevi madutha piravi manangalithidume.... X2

(She flipped her hair.. )
pinniya sadai satru vagai kalaindhidume.. *2
mayil peeli asaindhu asaindhu nilai kalaindhidume.. X2

panniru kai iraivan, yerum mayil onru...*2
than pasunthogai virithaadi parisalithidume.. X2

Kuzhal aadi varum azhagaaa
unai kaana varum adiyaar evaraayinum*2
kanaga mani asaiyum unadhu thiru nadanam
kan pattu ponaal manam pun pattu pogume x2
( she sung this part without taking her eyes even a second from me.. like she came to see me.. but I am being stupid that I didn't showed up... and that it hurts her.. )

aaadaathu asangaathu vaaaa
Un aadalil eerezhu bhuvanamum
asaindhu asaindhaaduthe
enave, aadaaathu asangaathu vaa kanna ....
( and she came towards me and gave me the Aarthi plate.... and I got hold of it too... and we circled clockwise and anti clockwise three time each way... as she finished the song)

Everyone started clapping their hands.. as how nice she sung... but I am dumb atucked knowing how hurt she is..

Deepu-"wow... you really sung well like a singer ketu..."

Rani-" we asked you to sing devotional song.. but you sung it.. but changed that into romantic one " ketu is blushing..

Me-" sorry... I was struck in a meeting.." whispered to ketu and she just went away from that place...

English translation
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pallavi:

Oh Krishna, please come without dancing and shaking,
For if you do that all the fourteen worlds would be moving and rolling.

Anupallavi:

For seeing your dance The Lord Nataraja has left Chidambaram,
And has come to Gokula and Oh little Yadava, oh Madava,
Please leave out that one big feather of the peacock.

Charanam:

With anklets making jingling sounds when your little feet move,
The mind that hears would be shaken by that,
The pig tail that I made would be fully disturbed,
With the peacocks feather shaking and shaking,
And would loose its Balance, Oh God with 12 hands,
The peacock that you ride opened its feathers to dance,
And to give you a present, Oh pretty one who comes singing,
Any of those devotees, who would come to see you,
Would be greatly upset if some evil eyes,
Affect the dance of yours with golden bells swinging,
And their mind would be deeply hurt.
