Adi called Varun over to his house

Adi: Machan bring your camera da

Varun: Kandipa da. Iniki photos edukurom. Kalakurom!

Adi: Seri en car leh polam la. We can pool. You me, Sithara and Tarun

Varun: Enaku okay da. Thambi Tarun ah paathu romba naal aaguthu

...

Tara woke up early and had the first step of her plan figured out.
She would call Adi and ask him if they could travel together as their homes were nearby.

Totally foolproof la. Adi has no reason to refuse. Apde rendu per mattum car ride. Semma jolly ah irukum -- She thought

*Incoming call*

"Hello Sitharaaa"

"Adi naane call panlam nu irunthen. When are you leaving? Namma en onna poga koodathu. Veedu pakathula thaana iruku. Na address anupata"

Adi was silent

She heard a honk outside

"Veliya va" he said

Her heart skipped a beat

"Inga irukiya? Address epdi theriyum?"

"Tarun vazhi sonan. Nee variya ilaya"

Tarun en sonan. Seri veliya povom she thought

Tara went outside with so much happiness. And then she saw Varun and Tarun waving at her. She was pissed off. Ada paavi Adi she cursed in a low tone

Adi controlled his laugh

And Varun was sitting in the front.

Great. She thought

Tara sat on the back seat grumpily

"Enna rara morning eh kadups ah" Tarun asked

"Deiii rara nu kupdatha nu soliruken la" she started hitting him. Taking out her frustration

Adi laughed as he started the car

"Adi siri nalla siri" she said in an angry tone

Adi didn't react. He just kept driving

Varun started a conversation now and then. But Tara remained silent. She was very mad.

However that mood changed when they reached the carnival and she saw many food stores right away!

She saw Arjun and Kirthi waiting. She ran over and gave Kirthi a hug.

"Epdi irukeenga rendu perum"

"Nalla irukom" Arjun answered for the both of them

Kirthi and Tara started talking about various things when Adi came back after parking.

"Adiii va polamm" Tara said dragging him

"Maaa Rakesh Aditi laam innum varla" he said resisting her pull.

As a result she dashed into his arms
They blushed

Tara felt like it was now or never. So she said

"Varun anneyy Rakesh Anna Aditi laam vara varaikum wait panreengala. Nanum Adi uhm porom pleasee" she asked with puppy eyes

Varun couldn't say no

"Aiyayo plan sothapidum polaye" adi thought

Tarun already went it and yelled
"Tara va va"

Adi smirked
"Va ma polam"

Tara was furious. Tarun messed up her second idea too.

The trio went and checked out everything. They made an itinerary.

Soon all of them assembled. Throughout the day, Tara kept trying to get Adi alone but there was always someone with them.

Adi tried so hard to not be alone with her. He made sure atleast one person was with them. He would pull Varun, Tarun, Rakesh or Arjun when others went away.

Tara grew tired. But she knew there was one more chance. Food. Everyone would have different preference, they would all go to different stalls.

She yelled "Time for food"

Like her plan, all of them started to scatter.

Adi knew they would be alone in a few seconds. So he used the ultimate weapon

"Group picture" he yelled

And just like that everyone came back
Tara was excited for the picture. So she didn't realize that Adi did it on purpose.

After a photo session, Tara felt like it was pointless to try and get him alone when they were out as a group. So she decided to let go and have fun. She started talking to Aditi and Kirthi.

Adi looked at his watch. It was the perfect time. Sun was about to set, and the giant wheel was looking magical. Now all he had to do was to get her alone. And drag her to the ride. If he brought up the giant wheel now, everyone would want to go and Tara will probably ride with one of the girls. He couldn't risk that.

But time was running and the boys kept talking, not leaving him alone. Tara was busy with the girls.

Finally the boys stopped. He turned to see Tara. She spotted a pizza stall and her face glowed

"Oh no"

Adi knew it was impossible to draw tara away from food. Especially pizza.
