They must have slept for a good 2 hours before Ashwin's phone vibrated waking him up. He played with her hair for a few minutes before waking up Shivu.

"Ashwineey its 4am now. Romba thoongitom. Na vera veetla sollala."

"No problem ma. Na ipo dhan amma ku message potten. Namba porumiya polan. Ivalo karthala poi elupina avungluku thookam kedum."

"Ok ma. Nee vetuku poitu enna elupen. Enaku kannu inum eriyardhu."

Ashwin nods and smiles inside happy that his surprise will remain a surprise for her. He started driving to their favourite spot to hang out. He reached Juhu beach just in time for the sun rise.

"Oi, Rowdy. Wake up." He kissed her cheeks till she wakes up. "Va va. Namba enga irukom paru."

"Woah! I didn't expect it." She grins at him looking at the beach. "Let's go." She jumped from the car making him chuckle and follow her.

You are truly comfortable with a person when the silence are also comfortable. This minute, it was comfortable and beautiful. The waves washing their feet, the orange rays of the rising sun hitting them. They were content.

Ashwin stood hugging Shivangi from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. He held her hands in his, spreading them wide. They stood there basking in the glory of nature.

They slow danced to the happy music played by the waves. In that moment, they needed nothing more. Just two people crazily in love with each other holding each other.

The birds chirping and early morning joggers broke their trance. The two sat in the sand allowing the occasional high waves to hit their heel.

Shivangi lifted her head from his chest making him look at her. She smiled with a warmth rivalling the early morning sun and pecked his lips.

"I love you and I like you." She whispered giving Ashwin goosebumps making him blush.

They stayed for an hour and then walked back to the car holding hands. "I was gonna bring you here anyway today. Its been ages since we came here. I missed this. When you casually commented I knew it was the right time." Ashwin tells her.

"Great minds think alike." She grins back.

"Next is my house. We'll brush, bath, change and then we can decide what to do."

Shivangi was rummaging his wardrobe when Ashwin entered with piping hot filter coffee. He kept the mugs on the night stand and pulled Shivangi on to the bed making her land on him.

"Rowdy, why are you selecting clothes for me?" He asks moving the baby hair from her face. His fingers were tracing the contures of her face making her red.

"Why will I select clothes for you? This is for me." She tells him hiding her blush.

"You know it's unfair. You get to wear and steal my clothes. I can't do that." He whines nuzzling his beard on her neck and shoulders.

"Apdiya? Idhu enna sir?" She asks pulling couple of her oversized tshirts which were correct for him. "If I remember correctly, you bought me a bunch just so you could have mine."

He just shrugs before picking up one from the pile she held and wore it. She followed him into the kitchen as he went to make breakfast. She sat on the kitchen slab and drank her coffee. Ashwin stood between her legs drinking his. Shivangi was quick to lock him wrapping her legs around him.

Her fingers gently stroked his beard absent mindedly while she was relishing the coffee. Ashwin sighs letting her do her thing, enjoying every second of it.

The empty mugs sat next to her on the slab, long forgotten. Shivangi held him in front of her and her hands playing with his fingers as she rested her head on his shoulders.

"Shivangi ma, what happened? Nee ivalo silent a iruka matiye."

"I always knew you'd stand by me and stand up for me. It's just that I didn't know you'll stick by my side even as I'm doing something which I have no clue about. Master was right in a way. I'm not that helpful in power tasks. I end up loosing the advantage round. I'm not such a great assistant. You know these things. You still chose me after Master said he'll ruin my cook's dish. I know you knew it was me. Don't give me one fake innocent look." Ashwin chuckled and closed his mouth. Eyes closed and no view of his face she still knew his every action. "You knew it was me. Thank you. That's all I want to say."

"Ma, why is this shocking? When you do something you are good at, you don't entirely need a support. Ana in cases where you are clueless, you need all the support you can find. And I for sure will be the first one by your side. You'll always find me next to you. Also, you might not be the most helpful during tasks, but your moral support is immense. You stand put for your cook. Don't underestimate yourself. Ok?" He lifts her face off his chest and flicks her nose making her nod.

"I'll make kara bread." She announced and jumped off the slab. She was quick to touch him and then her eyes as an apology for kicking him during her jump.

"Hey iru, ipo enna pana?" He asks holding her from behind.

"Kaal patudhu la na jump panache. Adhan."

"Ivalo neram kaal vechu dhane enna piduchu vechundha?" He teases.

"Adhu romance, vera department. Idhu respect and habit vera department." She pats his cheeks running off to the fridge to grab the bread.

She was excited to show off the one thing she was great at. Mixing up her spice blend and applying it on bread to toast it. Ashwin took her spot on the kitchen slab admiring his masterchef at work.
