Recap: Keshav take Myra to a private beach. Myra feels sparks from his touch.

***************

Its been a month to their marriage and they were enjoying every moment of their life feeling comfortable with each other. Myra was getting ready for her academy and Archana called Keshav and Myra to the hall.

Archana: Me and Madan are going to the temple in our native and will be back in 3 days. Anyhow you will all be busy in the reunion this weekend so take care of yourself and home until we are back.

Myra: Don't worry mommy, have a happy honeymoon. We will take care of us.

Archana: We are going to the temple Myra.

Myra: Its ok, I can understand. You carry on. Should I help you pack ?

Archana: We are all ready to leave. 

Myra: Bad mother in law, you made plans, packed everything and letting me know the moment you are set to leave ?

Archana: This is called surprise plan. Also lock the door, Krish will be arriving tomorrow morning and Roshni will return on Saturday morning for the reunion.

Keshav helped with their luggage in the car and they bade bye to the couple.

In the evening Keshav arrived at Myra's academy to pick up her and saw Myra waiting at the entrance holding a gift in her hand. 

Keshav: Gift for me ?

Myra: No, for someone special but I m not telling you about the person until we reach home.

Keshav: Poor me. I thought my wife got a gift for me.

Myra rolled her eyes at him being dramatic and they drove back to home. As soon they reached their room Myra was stunned to see their room decorated with flowers and balloons. 

Myra: Ketchup, what is this for ?

Keshav: Happy one month anniversary wifey. You thought I would forget ?

Myra: No, actually I wanted to surprise you but you beat me to it. Happy one month anniversary husband.

Myra gave the gift to him and Keshav received with a smile.

Keshav: You said this was for someone special.

Myra: Who is special in my life other than you ketchup? I went to a mall with Naina and chose this for you. Tell me if you liked it.

Keshav opened it and saw a royal maroon shirt, a watch and a jewel box. He opened the jewel box and found a gold bracelet with his name carved on it. He passed the watch and bracelet to her and showed his hands to do the honours. With wide smile Myra clasped the bracelet and watch around his wrist.

Keshav: I love the gifts so much little one. Than..

Myra: don't you dare thank me Ketchup. Wasn't you the one who said we don't say thanks to each other ?

Keshav: Ok.

Myra: Where is my gift ? Didn't you buy me one ?

Keshav pinched her cheek and opened his wardrobe pulling out the gift box. Myra squealed and got it from him. She opened it in a haste and saw a beautiful soft silk royal maroon saree with black and silver border.

Myra: Oh my god, we bought outfits of same color Ketchup..

She pinched his arm and put the saree on shoulder checking it on the mirror with complete excitement.

Keshav stood behind her and slid a gold chain with their first letters as pendant. Myra touched it and turned facing him.

Keshav: You happy butterfly ? 

Myra: Very happy Ketchup.

She surprised him by hugging him with her hand around his torso and her face on his chest. Keshav's heart skipped a beat and he froze to her sudden hug feeling sparks all over his body. He wrapped his arms around her and closed his eyes inhaling the fragrance of her hair.

Palpitation of both their hearts were out of control and they stayed in the same position. Myra felt extremely shy and slowly she tried to move away from him but what he did next shook her all her senses. Keshav cupped her face and pecked her forehead and they relished the moment with their eyes closed.

Keshav: For many more anniversaries in the future.

Myra blushed and he sat on the couch picking the water bottle from the teapoy to ease the tension in the room.

Keshav: What shall we do to celebrate this day ? Anything you wanted little one.

Myra: movie ?

Keshav: done, but I will choose the costume for us today. Wait outside until I do that.

Myra reached the hall with a shy smile touched her forehead.

Myra: I hugged him and he kissed my forehead. God, help my poor heart. What is happening to me ? He is sweeping me off my feet.

She bit her lips to stop the smile and Keshav arrived holding 2 sarees and 2 shirts in his hand.

Keshav: How about we choose one from these two ?

Myra took the sarees and shirt from his hand and tried the sarees putting them on her shoulder. Next she put the shirt on his torso checking them on him. She dropped a saree and shirt on the couch but they fell on the floor instead. Myra passed the shirt to him to get ready in their room while she choose to get changed in Archana's room.

They quickly got ready and reached the hall to leave but Myra stopped on seeing the dishevelled saree and shirt on the floor.

Keshav: We are getting late for the movie so let it be and we shall pick that when we are back home, anyhow no one is home tonight except us.

Myra agreed and they rushed out locking the door. They reached the theatre on time and settled on the couple seat he booked for them. 

Myra: Thank god we didn't miss any scene. 

Keshav rested his left arm behind her on the head rest and they watched the movie. Curious in discussing the story and commenting on the scenes they moved closer and at a moment Myra unconsciously leaned on his shoulder but froze immediately on her action. Keshav's hand on the head rest slid down wrapping it around her shoulder.

The movie was long forgotten and no words were exchanged further. All they knew was Myra's head on his shoulder and his arm around her shoulder. The interval of the movie broke their trance and Keshav cursed for the wrong moment of interval. 

Myra moved her head from his shoulder and Keshav straightened himself.

Keshav: I will buy some snacks for you now and later we shall have dinner at a restaurant before returning home.

Myra hummed and he moved out and returned with ice cream and lays for her. He passed the ice cream to her and held the open lays packet in his hand. The movies resumed and Keshav looked at Myra if she would lean on him and he placed his arm on her head rest to make it obvious. Feeling his arm behind, the hairs on her neck stood straight and she gulped the ice cream smudging it below her lips.

Keshav pulled out his hanky and wiped it for her and Myra felt Goosebumps all over her body and blushed to his little act of care.

 They walked out of the theatre when the movie ended and Keshav drove her to a restaurant to have dinner. It was too late by the time they reached home and they directly hit the bed.

Krish returned home in the morning and opened the door with the spare keys he had with him. On entering inside he was welcomed with the dishevelled saree and shirt on the floor and he stood shocked. Roshni too had returned unexpectedly at the same time and she dropped the bag and sat on the couch watching the clothes.

Keshav woke up first and saw Myra snuggled into him as usual. Like any other day he moved out without disturbing her and got bathed. He wore a track pant and decided to make coffee first and reached downstairs shirtless but stood rooted in place on seeing Krish's his line of sight.

Keshav: When did you come Krish ?

Krish: I just arrived bro. 

Myra woke up and saw Keshav was missing in the room. 

Myra: Where did he go ? May be to make coffee. Ketchuppppppppppppp

Keshav heard her scream and quickly picked the saree and shirt from the floor.

Keshav: Coming butterfly. 

He replied back to her and was about to return but Myra reached the hall and closed her mouth on seeing the clothes in Keshav's hand. Keshav gestured her to follow him and they retuned to their room.

Myra: Did they see the clothes on the floor ? What would have they thought ?

Keshav: The same that anyone would think of a married couple. I thought you are innocent.

Myra: I never said that I m innocent. How would I face them now ? It would be embarrassing.

Keshav: Why would you be embarrassing little one ? I m your husband and these things are bound to happen between husband and wife so they will understand.

Myra's face heated on his words and walked past him to the washroom but her mind picked on something and she returned to him with a deadly glare. Keshav frowned on her sudden change in reaction and gulped taking a step back.

Myra: How dare you walk out of the room shirtless ketchup ?

Keshav: Oh, I didn't know Krish would be back and its not like he hasn't seen me without a shirt little one.

Myra: Who cares about Krish ? Didn't you see another character present beside Krish ? Roshni has seen you without shirt.

Keshav: She was there ? 

Myra folded her hands to her chest and cocked her eyebrows. 

Keshav: I have my eyes only for my wife. I m sorry and I won't repeat what happened now. Please little one.

Myra: You better do that.

She entered the washroom and Keshav chuckled and rubbed his beard standing before the mirror.

Keshav: Your wife is not innocent Keshav. All the very best for your future. She has painted your life like a rainbow and I can't wait to explore everything with her. My jealous queen, what are you doing to me butterfly ?

They got ready and reached the kitchen and started cooking together.

Myra: I m not good in cooking like you but one day I will prepare a feast for you with my own hands. Give me a list of what you would like to eat and I will learn to cook for you.

Keshav: You don't have to worry about that little one. Just cook whatever you can and I will be happy to have it. 

Myra: I m good in making hot water.

Keshav: I will use that for my bath happily. 

Keshav picked a piece of carrot and fed her as they continued to prepare the vegetable sambar and dosa. Hearing the clearing of throat they turned around and saw Krish at the entrance of the kitchen.

Keshav: Krish, breakfast is ready. Lets have together.

Keshav gestured Myra to be casual and their conversation through eyes didn't go miss by Roshni who was behind Krish. She hated seeing them together so she returned to her room to avoid them.

Myra: How are you Krish ? 

Krish: I m good. 

Myra hummed and they started having breakfast together. Keshav received a call and moved out to answer it. Myra saw Krish lost in thoughts and decided to break the ice.

Myra: Krish, why are you distancing yourself from everyone ? You can talk with me and Ketchup, we will help you in anything.

Krish: Thanks Myra but I m fine.

Keshav returned and sat next to her serving some more sambar to her plate. Myra frowned stopping him but Keshav pointed the plate gesturing her to finish the breakfast completely.

Keshav: Krish, don't do anything that your heart doesn't want. Choose your mental peace and sanity over anything. Life is too short to live with regrets, forced decision and choices. 

Krish: Thank you bro. I will let you know about my decision and if I m not then sure I will come to you both. Are we still friends Myra ?

Myra: Ofcourse Krish, why do you even ask that question ? If you think I have avoided you then sure I didn't. I just stayed away because Roshni is very possessive of you and I didn't want any problem to arise between you both because of me.

Krish: We used to be so happy back then but everything changed the moment I proposed Roshni.

Myra: That is the beauty of life Krish. We learn from the outcome of everything we do, still we should move on rather than crying over the mistake we made.

Krish: You are right Myra and you sound so mature now.

Keshav: She has always been like that. Am I right little one ?

Myra: Ofcourse ketchup but now I want you to help me in drying the clothes and later I want to sleep so you better don't disturb me.

Krish choked on the water he was drinking and excused from them. Keshav burst out laughing once Krish was out of sight. Myra realized the meaning of her words and groaned hitting her head.

Myra: Its all your fault uncle. I meant about you deliberately making noise to not let me sleep in the morning time but he misunderstood.

Keshav: Its ok, like I said it happens with newly wed couples at home. Though nothing happened between us, you give all the vibe of us being a perfect couple in honeymoon period.

Myra started punching his arm and he chuckled trying to dodge her hits. Her mobile pinged with a notification and she saw it was from the new video uploaded b the mystery singer.

Myra: Oh my god, my crush has uploaded a new song. come one lets watch it together and later we shall continue.

Keshav hummed and leaned over to her and Myra played the song.

Mystery singer:

Mellisaiyae en
Idhayathin mellisaiyae
En uravukku innisaiyae
En uyir thodum
Nallisaiyae

The slow tune...Slow tune of my heart  You are the tune of my bond . The good tune touching my soul 

Kannai konjam thirandhen
Kangalukkul vizhundhaai
Enathu vizhigalai moodi konden
Sinnanjiru kangalil
Unnai chirai yeduthen

When I open eyes slightly , She slipped into my eyes,  And I closed my eyes        To imprison you inside it

Ethanai iravu
Unakkaaga vizhithirundhen
Urangamal thavithirundhen
Vinmeengal erithurindhen

How many nights, I have been awake for you. Grieved without sleeping, And Sat, burning stars

Nee oru padhi
Endrum
Naan oru padhi
Kaadhal jothi

You are a half always, I am a half, the lamp of love

Ennavale ...
Nilam kadal aanaalum
Azhiyadhu intha bandham

My dear, even if land transforms to sea. This relation won't fade

Myra looked at Keshav and he pinched her nose.

Keshav: What do you feel now ?

Myra: May be he got his love and he is happy.

Keshav: You speak as if you have seen everything happening in his life but I m happy he made you smile.

Myra: Don't be jealous Ketchup, he is just my crush whom I have never seen but you are my husband and we live together.

Keshav: Why will I be jealous over someone who doesn't even show his face. Also you admire his voice only but you admire me personally and rightfully, don't you ?

Myra: You are so full of yourself uncle.

Keshav: Ofcourse aunty.

Myra: Ketchup, how dare you call me aunty ? Pray the god to save you from me.

Keshav rose to his feet and rushed to his room with Myra chasing him as they continued with their banters.
