KADHAL AASAI

CHAPTER - 12

"Sometime suffering is just suffering. It
Doesn't make you stronger. It doesn't build character. It only hurts.
- Quote of the Day ✨️

The next morning

It was 6 in the morning. The newly weded couple were peacefully sleeping. As if knowing that the sun rays slowly peeked through the windows. Shreya squinted her eyes due to the light and slowly opened her eyes.

She turned to her right and saw her husband sleeping soundly holding her close to him. His hair was messy and lips were slightly parted leaving little snores. She chuckled at this and admired his sleeping face for sometime. Later she slowly removed his hold on her without disturbing his sleep and moved towards the washroom taking her necessities to do her morning chores.

After bathing she came out wearing a red colour cotton saree drying her hair with a towel. She saw Aadhi still sleeping.

Her vanilla fragrance hit his nostrils and he slowly sat up on the bed still closing his eyes. He slowly rubbed his eyes and opened his eyes smiling.

Aadhi: [in morning hoarse voice] Good morning Tara ma.

Tara fluttered for a moment but composed herself and replied to him.

Tara: Morning Aadhi. Enna nalla thookam pola.

Aadhi: Hmm aama ma. [He stretched his hands and got up from the bed.]

Tara: Seri poi kulichitu vaanga. Adhukula naa ready agidren

Aadhi: Seri ma.

He took his towel, went to his washroom to finish his morning chores. After bathing he came out wearing his vest and shorts, drying his wet hair with a towel. He saw Tara standing in the balcony. He put his towel in the dryer and went and stood behind her.

Aadhi:[intense voice] Tara inga enna panra?

Tara jerked for a moment and was about to fall. But holded her and made her stand properly.

Aadhi: Paathu ma.

Tara: Hmm. En ipdi dhideernu pinnadi vandhu pesuninga. Bayanthuten pa.

Tara mv: Adhum andha base voice irruke. Yappa.

Aadhi: [smiled sheepishly] He he sorry ma. Inga enna pannitu irruka nu kekalam nu vandhen?

Tara: Onnum illa pa. Chumma intha view ah paathutu irundhen. Romba azhaga irruku.

Aadhi: Unna vidava.

Tara: [controlling her blush] Ahaan apdiya?

Aadhi: Aama ennaku epome en pondatti dhan azhagu.

Tara: Nalla pesuringa Aadhi. Seri seri vaanga keela polam late aagudhu.

Aadhi: Okayy.

They both went down and saw the other three were in the living. Akshu was the first one to notice these two.

Akshu: Mama [she jumped from Moni's lap and ran towards Aadhi widening her hands].
