"Aaaah....." reacted Akash to the sunlight that hit him in the face as his mother opened the screen in his room, that remained closed for past two days. He have not left his room, had all three meals in his room, he have not talked to anyone too since the evening at the restaurant. "Mom I am trying to sleep here" said Akash wiping his eyes to adjust to the sudden change in lighting.

"It's enough Akash, you are behaving like a kid now" said his mother and sat in the chair in balcony and placed the two coffee cups that she brought on the table, she took one and had a sip "It's really good" she tempted and signaled him to come and have his. Akash still being in his same sweat shirt for past two days and messy hair, got up and sat in a chair opposite to his mother and started having his coffee. "Mmmm... what happened rejection?" questioned his mother. He is blessed to have the most understanding mother, he have always thought god has double compensated, for giving him a worst father, he will share everything to her. This is the first time he has not talked to her for two days, even when he was in US he used to video call her daily. "No, ma she made sure I did not propose" said Akash. His mother almost spat the coffee, "What????" asked his mother.

Flashback:

Still disturbed with AK's teary eye and tensed face Sivu could not be the same chirpy person as she was minutes before. Akash kept on questioning her but received only a smile or nod or "I am fine" as reply, he could not react before everyone in restaurant and he held back his disappointment. They were finally alone in his car and not able to take her silent treatment anymore he questioned "Enough Sivu what happened now? Just tell me" asked Akash angrily. "No, nothing I just can't take him out of my mind, I just feel like I want to comfort him and be there for him and not here" she said and she looked completely lost in thought, a drop of tear escaped her eyes. Akash was beyond shock on seeing his effect on her. He was more confused and angry about the very fact before his eyes. He asked "Is there anything between you and...." he did not even want to complete it, he also did not want a positive response for it, his heart beat raised so much while waiting for her reply. 

"Aama Akash, I love him, avarta na solten, avaru innu edhum sollala aana evlo love panren nu ipa dan theriyudhu. I can't see him cry" said Sivu wiping off her tears.

[Yes Akash, I love him, I have proposed and waiting for his reply, but just now realized how much I love him, I can't see him cry]

Akash stopped the car, he went blank, he felt a weird pain in his heart "I love him more, you understand" his father's words during his childhood echoed in his ears, he cannot control anymore and tears started rolling down his cheeks, but Sivu was so lost in thought to even notice that the car was stopped. He calmed himself down in a minute and started to drive, they finally reached Sivu's house. He shook her shoulder to bring her back to sense "Sivu, we are here" said Akash with a fake smile. Sivu was about to get down and he stopped her. He opened the dashboard and searched for something, he got hold of the ear ring box that he bought for proposing her, his eyes glistened but made sure she did not notice that, he pushed that far away and searched further and took out a dairy milk silk the biggest available one in store. He handed it to her "Cheer up idhu nalla illa paaka" said Akash and smiled at her 

[Cheer up sorrow doesn't look good on you]

Sivu smiled and went in.....

"oh, proud of you da kanna" said Akash's mother and placed her hand on his head. He got down from the chair and placed his head on her lap, "Still its hurting, but I will overcome it" said Akash. His mother continued to brush his hair "Mmm, what you did was so correct you should not have proposed her, aama ne epo un company start panna pora nyabagam irukulla, na wait panren enna dan andha CEO chair la first ukkara vappen nu solliruka, ipdi ulle irundha epdi ellam nadakum"

[Oh so proud of you dear][when are you going to start your company, don't forget the promise that you will make to sit in the CEO chair as first person. How will all that happen, if you are staying inside like this ]

                                                            *************************

"Madam adhisayama phone ah kela vachutinga bola" teased Sri, Sivu have told Sri about her relationship. After the day in beach Sivu was always busy with her phone, as AK was stuck in shooting since the next day and could not free himself out of the schedule, he had no other option but to stay connected through phone. They both missed each other so much, it never felt like two days for them it was already like so long since they met. 

[Madam finally kept your phone down]

Sivu hit her on the elbow with a blushing smile. "Indha shoot ellam ipa dan vapanga" said Sivu angrily. "Hello naanga inga movie ku wait pantu irukom edha update vangi thayen yaaru heroine aam" asked Sri, Sivu gave an angry glare and Sri started to laugh

[Why the shooting has to be now][Hello we are waiting for the movie here, who is the heroine in his current movie, can you slip me some info]

Before they could end their conversation Sivu again received a call from AK, Sri noticed it and signaled she will leave them alone and moved away.

"Madam enna panringa" asked AK. "Nenga phone ah vachu two minutes kuda aala Kumareyy" said Sivu with a teasing tone.

[Madam what are you doing][Its been only two minutes since the last call]

"Oh na apa torture panren nu solla variya ma" asked AK with mild tone, Sivu could sense his puppy face even in a voice call "podhum kumareyy nadikadhinga" said Sivu

[Oh then you are thinking me as a torture][Don't make a scene Kumareyy]

AK have never been this much happy and comfortable in a long time, he lied on the bed in his caravan and was talking to her, he just wanted this to be forever, he wanted her near him all through his life.

"Ma oru paatu paaden, thoonganum night shoot irukku again, ipo thoongna dan" he asked her and his tone showed that he was really tired, "achoooo" she said and started to sing 

[Can you please sing a song for me, need to sleep now as I have night schedule today]

"ondra renda aasaigal ..............

........kaalaba kaadhala" 

she finished singing and whispered to know whether he slept "Kumareyy..." . "yes Priya" he replied in a mild tone and no response post that, she could figure out he spoke in sleep. Her heart was shattered on hearing someone else's name, her eyes glistened and she cut the call immediately.
