ASHAANGI- KADAVUL SETTING ❄☃️❄ (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 17

"Vinayak knows?!?"

"Ya. You know I tell him everything. He is the one I go to sort my thoughts. He knows. I didn't tell him that we got together but he knows we love each other."

"Why didn't you speak with him about the... um... issue?" Ashwin asks referring to her insecurities.

"I didn't want anyone to know. I was scared anyone who comes to know will tell me my fears are true."

"Ma... it's your brother. How will he judge you? He knows more about you than you. He loves you so much? How will he hurt you?" He holds her shoulders.

"Ashwin please, vendam. Indha topic inum edho panudhu. You made me see sense but idhu poga time agum. I have heard these so many times that in some corner I believed it. Please." She replies moving his hands off her shoulders.

"Ok. I won't broach this topic again." He holds his hands up. "But nee enaku promise pannanum. One, you'll tell Vinayak everything. Two, eppolan you feel low you'll tell me. You'll tell me when something disturbs you. Adhu na panadha irukatum or anyone else. I will do what I can to make you feel better. I'll stand by you and do whatever you want me to."

"Promise. Thank you. You are the best." Shivangi pounces into a hug. Ashwin loses balance due to it. "Vinayak will call sometime today for the weekly catch up. I'll tell him then." She continues now lying on him.

Ashwin just hugs her to himself and inhales her scent.

"Ma, when will Pugazh come? I should maybe leave before he does. Rakshan left me alone with you because he knows about us, ana Pugazh edha nenachuka poran."

"Adhalan vendam. You stay with me. Anna won't think much." She snuggles closer drawing circles on his chest. "Can we tell him today?"

"Are you sure?" Ashwin asks stopping her hands. She just humms in response without moving her head. "Look at me." Lifts her face to face him. "Sure you are ok doing it? Don't do it just because I want to."

"I'm sure. I mean I initially wanted to just because you said that's the right thing. But after Rakshan anna told those things I want to. I don't care about how others get to know but my family should only know because I tell them. Even you must be feeling that way la. I don't know why I never thought of how you wanted to do things. I mean, you wanted amma and appa to know and you didn't tell anyone just because I said so. I'm sorry Ashwineey. Enaku idhalan ippo dhan thonudhu." She kisses his cheeks and goes keep her head on his chest when he stops her.

Ashwin sits up with Shivangi still on his lap. "I want to do only one thing. Love my Shivangi and keep her happy. I didn't tell anyone other than my sister because you weren't comfortable. And when you aren't ok with something how can I go ahead and do it? But thank you, ippo nee ok sonadhuku."

"So ippo namba amma, amma, appa, appa, Vinayak, akka, annas ta solanum. Did I miss anyone?"

"Enaku list la onu iruku. Top slip poi ooo nu kathanum. Shivangi loves me nu. Adha list la seru. Vena neeyum vandhu kathu." He says kissing her nose.

Soon it's time for the next episode and the two of them cuddle up against each other with a bowl of popcorn each.

"You know, it's romantic if there's one bowl. Our hands will brush against one another, we can fight for the same kernel. There's so much we can do. Ana, nee alu ku oru bowl thara." Ashwin complains munching his popcorn.

"Apdiyaa? Kai kami." Shivangi holds his palm next to hers. "Hulk mari kai iruku enoda compare panra che. How will the share be equal? Nee oru handful la paadhi bowl edupa. Idhan safe for my popcorn."

"Idhan problem na I have a solution." He says playing with her fingers. "Enaku popcorn mukkiyam illa. Na edukara popcorn unaku ooti vidren, nee enaku ootu. Un problem um solved, yen problem um solved." He says using her hands to feed him.

In a trance, Shivangi just nods her head and stares blankly at him. Ashwin blinks back at her making her blush and hug his chest.

"Epdi ipdi iruka?" He asks kissing her hair.

"Epdi?"

"Why do you freeze during the most normal acts?" He asks chuckling.

"Purila Ashwineey." She whines looking at him.

"For example, see now." He pecks her lips. She just grins and pecks him back. "Idhuku ipdi react panuva. But when I do this you'll freeze." He says winking at her and sending her a flying kiss leaving her flustered and blushing.

Shivangi mumbles something earning a hearty laugh from him causing her to join in.

"It's your voice and eyes. That low warm, husky voice does something." She tells him.

"Turns you on heh?" He says huskily going close to her making her slap his chest away.
