Anu was still waiting for Anand.

Anamika was sitting impatiently in the wedding hall. The muhurat was over. The marriage and food were done. Still, Anand was not seen. She called and he did not pick up the phone.

Suddenly, another message from Kiran came to the phone.

"What is all the fuss about? Where has Anand gone?"

Seeing this Anu felt completely uneasy.

Kiran has been sending WhatsApp messages recently. She does not know from where he got her number from.

Anu's Facebook account is open. She writes on it. She posts dance reels. So, anyone can see it.

Kiran joined her as a fan a year ago. For so long, there was no other trouble. But now his actions are mysterious. She knows everything about Anu. Anu started getting scared since the WhatsApp messages started coming. She made up her mind that it shouldn’t be too late to tell about this stalking at home.

Definitely she doesn’t have any plan to discuss about this to Anand first.  At first she will tell this to Asok. She knows her Appa well.  He will handle it patiently.

Kiran's message came again.

"Are you angry my girl? When you get angry you look so beautiful. I like to see your angry face."

After that, he sent a photo of Anu with a disdainful face. Again, photos of her in different poses. None of them were taken today. They were taken in past time.

Anu felt very angry and scared. The fact that Kiran was somewhere nearby doubled her fear.

She might block him right away. Just as she started blocking him, his message came.

"Are you going to block me, Anukutty? That's my girl. But I will still come. I didn't start to follow you today or yesterday. When Anu used to perform Bharatanatyam in school, I used to be in front of the stage. For some reason, I never had the courage to come forward. When I saw you in that saree today, I lost my control.  Yellow is my favourite color If I stay late again, someone else will snatch my beautiful girl. I won't give you to anyone girl."

Anu stared at the phone for a while in dismay and blocked Kiran.

Then Anand's phone received a call from Anu. Then only Anand thought about Anu.

But the call got disconnected.

When Anu called him again his phone was engaged.

"What about this Nandettan? I have left the gift on the table. Didn’t he see it?"

She quickly sent a WhatsApp message.

"Nandettan, to whom you are talking? Come here quickly. Everything is done. At least we should give the gift. The gift is on the table."

She felt completely embarrassed and sad.

Anand was in the hospital, in a dilemma.

When he went to call Anu, the doctor came.

He had no plan to tell anything to Anu now.  He knows Anu will become faint.

When he was about to call her again a call came.

While he was sitting there silently  Anu called again.

But Anand didn’t pick it.

Anu felt like throwing the phone away.

"What's wrong with you, girl? Don't throw that phone and break it. Try to keep your face straight. Anand will come."

Kiran's message again from another number.
