It was afternoon, they spent the whole morning talking and laughing

"Maa lunch ku appa amma vah kupdalama"

"Enna veladriya your kitchen is right in front of the living room. Ethachum paatha enna aagurathu"

"Ohhh apo neenga romance ku plan potrukeenga apdi thaana"

Tara gave her thirutu muzhi

"Apdi laam ila incase ethachum paathanga nah enna aagurathu nu keten"

"Invite panlam ma lunch cook panitu" Adi chuckled

"Seri what if they had already cooked by the time we call"

Adi laughed "You really think so?"

Tara laughed as well. There's no way her parents would cook by 1.

.....

They entered his kitchen and once again Tara looked at everything like she was a kid in a museum.

She was engrossed in looking at a cute container he had. He came by and hugged her from the back.

"Enna ma panra"

"Adii intha dabba semma cute ah iruku" he moved away from her

"Inga 6 feet la oru manushan nikuren. Enna vitutu oru dabba va cute nu solitu iruka nee"

"Kumareyyy rendu vishyam
1. You are 5' 11'' not 6
2. un dabba kita kooda posa posa va?"

"Nanum rendu vishayam
1. En height epdi theriyum kedi fellow!
2. posa posa nah enna?"

"1. Athellam na kandupudichiruven
2. Possessiveness"

"Rendu vithama pesunathu pothum and posa posa laam ila"

"Seri seri va samaikalam" she dragged him and tried to get on the counter but it was higher than the one in her house.

She was jumping up and down cutely

"Ivlo kuthikirome, thookividrana paaru. Shei" she mumbled

He wanted to see how long she'll do this before asking for his help

She gave up and walked towards him in anger
"Ennaya aalu nee"

"Enna ma meratura"

"Pinna oru ponnu avlo kashta padra counter la erurathuku oru kai kuduthu kooda help panala" she yelled adorably

"Nee kutty ah cute ah iruntha athaan pathute irunthen"

"Unaku punishment thara poren" She said and jumped on his back.

He was startled by this action so he lost balance and both fell on the floor.

Adi got up first. Tara laid there pouting.

"Punishment kaathu pona balloon mathiri busnu poiduche" Adi laughed

"Adi help me get up. Apro sirichiko"

He acted like thinking

"Hmmm ila nee apde iru na poi samaikren"

"Adi Adi Adiiii you are not seriously doing this are you? Nillu! Don't you dare walk past me" she yelled as he walked away un bothered

She held a cabinet door and stood up

He was washing the vegetables when she came.

Tara did not waste a single second. She started hitting him.

Adi was enjoying this side of her. But he knew he should make up for the frowns he caused, he wanted her smile back.

He turned around and lifted her to place her on the counter. He stood between her legs and looked into her eyes

She looked back at his eyes which held nothing but love for her. She could get lost in them. Adi slowly hugged her and placed his head on her shoulder.

"Nee varathuku munnadi, kitchen la na ivlo siripen nu nenaikave ila ma. Thanks for filling this place with life"

Tara caressed his hair

"Namma veedu epovum ipdi irukum I promise"

He pulled back and looked at her

"You are already making my house a home Sithara. To hear you talk about our future is driving me crazy. You are my magic"

He kissed her forehead

"And you are the cheese to my pizza. Nee ilana enna ennake pudikathu" she poked his chest with her finger

He rubbed his nose with hers.

"Unnala mattum thaan ipdi laam yosika mudiyum"

...

They got back to cooking

She was getting bored. So he gave her a chocolate

"Intha saptuko"

And she smiled at him like he hung the moon and stars

"En ma apdi paakura" He asked affected by the intensity in her look

"Pinaaaa this was the sweetest gesture. People always make fun of the fact that I love food. Apo gym ah irukatum ipo un veeda irukatum, you never made fun of it. Not even once. Hell, I even compared you with food. Apo kooda nee kalaikala. How did I get so lucky Adi"

"As long as you have atleast 2 healthy meals a day, I will never complain" he smiled

"I-"

Cooker whistled

"I-"

One more whistle

"I-"

One more and Adi switched it off

"Ipo sollu ma"

"I need to get down. Keela eraki vidu"

Adi helped her get down

"Enna aachu" he was confused

"Onnum ila na un veeda olunga pakuren. Vanthathu la irunthu un pinnadiye la suthitu iruken"

"Seri nee poi paaru. Lunch is almost done, I'll call them and ask them to come over"

She hopped and left

...

Adi was overwhelmed. Something so little and so random like a box has given him a memory to cherish.

It's a wonderful feeling -- to belong.
