Kalyanam to Kadhal (His Accidental Bride) ~ Book 1

Chapter 24

Saritha kneaded the dough, rolling them into small circles as Rani flatten them into circles before frying them into crispy golden brown poori.

" Morning ma,unake guest vanturukange." Ravi Raghavendra smiled as he walked into the kitchen. (Good morning, you've got guests..)

Saritha gave a half smile, head tilting slightly as she wiped her hands on her kurti.

" Anusha ke iniki velai ache..." (Doesn't Anusha has work today...)

Ravi Raghavendra chuckled. " Vanthu paru," (come and see..)

Saritha gave him an amused smile, walked out of the kitchen wiping her hair from her forehead, tucking it behind her ears.

" Hrishikesh?"

The man in question beamed and stood up greeting her. Saritha's eyes widened seeing the books and pens on the table.
Hrishikesh smiled sheepishly and rubbed the back of his neck.

" Sorry Anni, I couldn't understand much, that's why I've come to ask for help."

Saritha smiled and looked at Ravi Raghavendra who was chuckling.

" Seri, no problem...mothele breakfast sapdu aprom unnade questions nambe review panlam ok va ?" (Ok, no problem.. First let's have breakfast before reviewing your questions..)

Hrishikesh smiled and nod. Saritha ushered them both into the kitchen, Lakshmi Raghavendra walked out of the pooja looking at Hrishikesh in surprise.

" Hrishikesh, eh suprise ah irruke...yenda tidirnu vanturuke ?" (Hrishikesh, what a surprise?what brings you here suddenly?)

" Ille perima, subject le doubt athan...afternoon vanthu photoshoot irruke athan morning le vantuten." (No aunty, I've got some doubts in the subject. There's a photoshoot in the afternoon, that's why I came in the morning itself)

" Yendi, iniki Unake class ille ?" (Saritha, don't you class today?)

Saritha shook her head smiling as she carried the bowl of poori to the table.

" Ille attai, inthe semester Friday vanthu class ille...Hrishikesh mothele rendu poori vekire," (No aunty, no classes on Friday in this semester.. Hrishikesh, I'll serve two poori's first)

Hrishikesh smiled and nodded. Saritha served the three of them before walking towards the coffee pot.

" Saritha, Ani ke coffee kudukule ? " (Saritha, did you serve coffee for Ani?)

" Tho poren..." Saritha poured coffee into 4 mugs and served the three before walking upstairs. (I'm going now)

She pushed the door opened and exhaled her breath, rolling her eyes. She placed the coffee on the bed stand before bending down and picking up Anirudh's stray clothes which he stripped last night before falling on the bed.

" Kaile padikavanthe avaru yengge, innum thoogitu irrukare inthe aalu yennge!" She muttered to herself as she carried the clothes to the hamper. (Look at him sleeping like this while his cousin has come to study)

Saritha sighed when the alarm rang and Anirudh mumbled before placing the blankets on top of his head.

Saritha soaped her arms and face when the door opened making her squeal and hide her chest with her hands. Her eyes closed shut, legs pressed tightly together. Her eyes stinging as a little soap went into her eyes when she opened her eyes as the door opened earlier.

" Yenge! Veliya ponge !" (honey! please go out!)

Anirudh smirked and walked towards her making her stumble back, her legs slipping slightly due to the soapy floor. Anirudh quickly caught her in his arms.
