CHAPTER 43

When Ashwin and Shivanya arrived home the next morning , it had already dawned.

They spent the last night leaning on each other and watching the moonlight.

They've also, or maybe she had come up with a plan to smoothen their lives.
It appears that they will be friends first, again and after that they'll take things further when they're both ready.

Ashwin had no other options than to agree and go along to her plan. He had made his bed. He mentally consoled himself that it won't be long, he will find some way to sort out this obstacle very soon.

Ashwin very well knows that they can't just walk in to the house , hand in hand, on the very next morning of their wedding day. He knows that the unmeasurable teasings would be too much to bear. He sighed fidgeting his fingers in the steering wheel trying to figure how to manage this before entering the Villa's gate.

Ulla ponna kalaipangala?

Ashwin jerked his head towards her with widened eyes when he heard her talking all of a sudden. He remembered seeing her in deep slumber the next minute they got in the car. He didn't know when did she wake up and now she was sleepily staring at the Villa's too.

Ashwin cleared his throat and nodded humming. Shivanya's whip-smart mind quickly proffered an impish idea. It was an old one actually. One she used to escape Daadi's wrath after going down the lane to take a glance at the new motorbike her schoolmate's father had both on early morning, before he leaves for work.

Engkitta oru idea iruku, sollata?
~

Ippo yedhuku namba ipdi ore route'leh thiruppi thiruppi odithu irukum?

A very much confused Ashwin, asked the weirdly excited Shivanya after pacing up and down the lane in front of their houses for three times straight!

S: Appo dhane verkum!
A: Yedhuku ma verkanum?
S: Appo dhane jogging ponom'nu nambuvanga!

Ashwin made an 'o' expression when he finally got the plan.

After the fifth round, Shivanya stopped him before they entered the gates. She started to dishelve his hair with her hands to make them look messy,
A: Yei, yei! Yennama panra?!
S: Jogging poitu vandhu yaravadhu ivlo neat'ah irupangala?
A: Romba mukkiyam

She was finally done, Ashwin was staring at her frowning making her giggle at him. She suddenly put her hands on his shoulders, dragging him down to her height and looked at him solemnly. Ashwin didn't know what was she upto know,
S: Gavanama kelunga Mr. Ashwin Kumar, ippo namba jogging dhan poitu varom purinjudha?

Ashwin nodded like a school kid

S: Yenna analum yendha unmaiyum olara koodhadu, aprom avanga nambala kalaikiradha yaralayum thaduka mudiyathu. Purinjudha?

Ashwin snorted at her serious tone unable to stiffen his laughter anymore. Shivanya slammed his shoulders, he whined
S: Mr. Ashwin Kumar naa serious'ah pesittu irukken!
A: Ahh, Valikudha ma!

Shivanya rubbed his shoulders and asked him again,
S: Ippo sollu, namba yenga poitu varum?

Jogging'ku!
Jogging'ku!
~

Sathya and the others who were having their breakfast were bewildered to see the newly married walking to the face with both their faces lighting up to thousands watts.

Sa: Yenga da poitu varinga?
A: Jogging'ma

Ashwin said casually shrugging his shoulders and smirking at Shivanya when everyone else looked at them mystified.
Kathir: Paithiyathuku paithiyom dhan amayum'nu summava sonanga
S: Yen'ne?
Shivanya asked befuddled and it was too late for Ashwin to stop what was coming up next now.
