Eyes on you

01 | The first meet

Yet to proof read... kindly bear the grammatical mistakes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Mahadevan~~~~~~~~~~

I was waiting for more than half an hour for my sister to get ready. 

"Anna"

Ufff.. finally she is ready. "how long will you take to dress yourself? Come he might be waiting for us."

"Anna.. I am ready but what is this shirt that you are wearing? I don't like this color. Go change to a different one"

"Hey.. we are going to meet your groom not a girl for my marriage. So this is enough come on let's go. He might be waiting for us"

"No anna. Go change to a different one. While I am talking with Krishna, you can utilize the chance to sight the girls there. If possible pick one". She went inside and rummaged my cupboard. After 5 minutes she came out with a new shirt.

"here wear this and change to  black jean .. I don't like this faded one"

"Anju maa.. why da?? this is good . come we can leave"

She pleaded and pestered me for sometime and finally I changed to the attire she gave. 

"Anna.. this hairstyle..." she started which I aborted with my sentence.

"Anju..stop it there.. We are already late. As I said we are going to meet Krishna, your future husband. We are not going to meet any girl for my marriage"

She pouted. But I dragged her outside of my house and we hopped on to the bike. My sister Anjana is very talkative but a good at heart person. Yesterday Krishna and his family came to see her for marriage at our house. 

Though we all have agreed to proceed with marriage, me and my parents felt like Krishna was not ok with marriage. We made Anjana understand our concern as she has already fell in love with him.

Now we are on the way to meet him in the mall to discuss about his decision before we start with the marriage proceedings. 

May be he was forced to say ok yesterday. That is the reason, we have asked for a meet today with him in the mall.

We reached the mall in half an hour and went to the food court in search of them.  Upon searching for less than minute , we spotted Krishna who was sitting along with another girl. 

She was scrolling her mobile phone while leaning on his shoulder. Seeing us, I saw Krishna utter something to her and she sat straight diverting her gaze to us. 

She waved her hands at us. As we took steps towards their table, she and Krishna were indulged in some conversation. My confusion is who is she?? Is she his sister? or girlfriend? Is that the reason he did not show interest in the marriage talk yesterday at our house?

Within few seconds I had numerous thoughts about them running in my mind. But I did not want to come to a conclusion and remained neutral.

We sat in front of them and my eyes were fixed on her and Krishna alternatively. Krishna too seemed to notice the path of my eyes. May be he figured out what I was thinking.

The moment we sat, my very talkative sister Anjana started her talks and complimenting  Krishna.

"ayo.. serious ah..alaga irukeenga.. ama ivanga yaru.." (seriously ... you look handsome. And who is this?) Anjana asked Krishnan.

"Hi.. I am Sandhya.. his girl bestie" she stretched her hands for handshake to Anjana. She then looked at me. With a small nod I mouthed 'hi'.

"oh.. hi I am Anjana.. this is my brother Mahadevan.. I am going to marry your best friend. By the way, this earring looks good nga.. where did you buy?"
