Ponniyin Selvan oneshots

Lost at the sea |Arulmozi Varman x Vanathi

She was just thinking about Arulmozhi. How would he be? What must he be doing? Is he ok? All these questions had been roaming in her head. She had been sleepless for many nights. A weird sense of worry had taken over her. She had been seeing his face in the water. The face always looked at her as if it had been calling her to join him.

Just then Varini burst into the room. "The prince had drowned at the sea!!! " She shouted out loud.

It was as if all her blood and energy had drowned out of her. She grabbed the railing trying to register this fact. Her Arulmozi, her Ponniyin Selvan, her Yaanai Paagan had drown. Her dreams, her hope, her life, everything had drowned with him. Her head started to feel dizzy, her legs buckled up, she finally was able to understand why was she seeing his face in the water. He had been calling her. To join him. How idiot has she been! .

She looked up around the room. All the girls there had been staring at her as if saying that it had happened because of the bad luck Vanathi brings.

She wasn't able to face so many faces, so she ran out of the room. She ran and ran and ran. She ran till she was at the bank of the Ponni nadi. 'Ibhad been a fool!' She thought, 'All this time the prince had been calling to me! There was only one way left. This lake flows to the river and the river flows to the sea. The prince is waiting for me at the bottom of the sea. I will meet him there....... '

As she started to decend into the water, she saw a boat a bit far away. Kundavai and Vanthyadevan were on it. Has he told her about her little brother? He must have. How can I go to him without saying bye to Kundavai Akka who had showered her with love and care? Never mind, it's him whome I should meet first.

With her yaanai paagan in her mind, she fully submerged herself into the water.

She started to sink into the water. A crowd of radiant figures surrounded her in the golden ripples of the water. 'He is calling me' with this last thought, she lost her consciousness.

The ripples carried her away to a Pavillion where the prince stood with a broad smile on his face. With some auspicious music playing in the background, they exchanged garlands and got married. Unable to comprehend what is happening she fainted.

She felt two strong arms grab her. At first she thought it was her yaanai paagan who was lightly patting her face which rested on his lap. Then she heard the clanging of bangles and Kundavai's voice saying her name. The marriage had all been a dream. It was Kundavai's lap on which ahe had rested her head and it was her loving akka taking care of her. "Is he really dead" Vanathi was able to ask this to Kundavai before she passed out.
