Shakthi nervously bit her lower lips when she was asked to be seated at the fire altar .

Shiva sensed it and squeezed her palms in assurance . 

Shiva was concentrated in chanting priest's mantra while she was joblessly sitting infront of the whole world who could judge anything and everything .

Her mind went back to her favourite conversation with her favourite hooman .

" inda time la en amma patha avlodan Shiva , thungu d , kannu veengirukum , photo nala irukadhunu advice pani thalliduvanga " Shakthi said climbing the stairs to the terrace .

" Shh polambama vaa " he quickly dragged her .

Closing the door , he extended his  upper limbs to relax while she looked at him with a frown .

" Ena kootitu vandutu , vaanatha paathutu irukaaru sutham " she thought .

" Relaxed ah iruka dan inga kootitu vanden , vaa " he called her sit on one of those wooden counter .

" aiio mela eri okanda , namba thala teriyum keezha irundu paatha , keezha vaanga " she dragged him to sit down .

He sat down folding his legs and pointed her to sit before him ,

She had a gleeful smile when he pulled her into his embrace .

She lied down leaning on to his chest scribbling erratically on his palms ,

he looked amused how she was too silent for a long time ,

" ena tension ah irundiya ? " he asked caressing her hair .

" romba romba tension ah irunden , nalla time la kootitu vanduteenga , edo neriya rules  podraanga , enaku padhatama aidudhu "

He kissed her hairline , " ore ponnu kalyanam  nu avanga tension idu unaku ore kalyanam nu unaku pudicha mari iruka unaku tension adaana "

She nodded positively , " thonrada sei d , naaliku namba thirumbi paatha , aaaha nu irukanum " he said .

After the stress relief ,

" adu ena ore kalyanam " she asked to tease him .

On shifting the focus from nowhere to her face ," adipaavi "

" Ungala kalyanam panni papen , idan first but idu last lam ila solliten "

" apram  "

" Namba 5 years ila ila 1 year once panikalam , ok va ? " she asked .

He laughed , " adu seri panita pochu , guinness record daan "

Voices from either sides made her to be back to reality ,

" Shakthi " he whispered with sincerity in eyes and overflowing love .

She nodded her head with a smile indicating him to proceed with the sacred yellow thread .

Shakthi grinned widely making Shiva to press a long kiss on her forehead after tying it ,

The elders shook hands and hugged each other in happiness wiping their tears of joy .

Shakthi was no lesser than a crying mess before she left her home .
