Ennai Maatrum Kadhale...

Marandhaye Marandhayee...

Episode 11...

Abi sat in her room, staring at the blank ceiling, her eyes puffy from crying. It had been days since she last heard from Ajay, and the silence was suffocating her. Her heart ached every minute, but the worst part was the uncertainty. She kept asking herself the same questions over and over again-why hadn't Ajay called? Why hadn't he fought harder?

Downstairs, her parents sat calmly, watching the news as if nothing had happened. But Abi knew that behind their calm facade lay the ruthless force that had taken control of her life. They had confiscated her phone, her only connection to Ajay, leaving her helpless and trapped within the walls of their house. The day they took it away, they told her something that shattered her heart.

Kousalya , with feigned compassion, had placed her hand on Abi's shoulder.

'Abi, its time to move on, Ajay already move on aiyutan' Kousalya said gently with a firm

Abi had stared at her mother, wide-eyed, her world spinning. She couldn't believe what she had just heard.

'What? illa, Amma. adhu unmai illa! Ajay enna vitukuduka matan. We love each other."

Her mother's expression remained cold and calculated as she spoke the cruelest words Abi could have imagined.

'nanga Ajay appa kita pesinom. He has moved on, avanuku vera ponnu kuda pathutangalam. It's over, Abi. He doesn't want you in his life anymore.' Kousalya said

The words hit Abi like a physical blow, making her stumble backward. Her breath caught in her throat, her chest tightening as the weight of her mother's lie settled in her heart. But in that moment, she didn't know it was a lie. She believed it. Every tear that fell from her eyes, every sob that tore through her, was because she truly believed the love of her life had abandoned her.

'No... this can't be happening' Abi whispered

Her father's voice, devoid of any sympathy, echoed from across the room.

'This is for your own good, Abi. You'll thank us one day. You need to forget him and focus on your future.' Subramanian said sternly

Abi sank to the floor, her heart shattering into pieces. The pain was too much to bear. All she wanted was to hear Ajay's voice, to know that it was all a lie. But without her phone, without any way to contact him, she was completely powerless.

Meanwhile, in the city, Ajay was living through his own nightmare. He sat in his college dorm, staring at his phone with a mix of anger and sorrow. It had been days since Abi last responded to his calls or messages, and he had no idea why. Every attempt he made to reach out to her was met with silence. Had he done something wrong? Was she angry at him? Or worse... had she decided to end things without even telling him?

'en Abi, en ipdi pandra' Ajay said frustrated

He tossed his phone onto the bed and buried his face in his hands, the weight of his emotions crushing him. His roommates and best friends, Rakshan and Naren, exchanged worried glances. They had never seen Ajay like this before.

Rakshan sat beside him and placed a comforting hand on his shoulder.

'dei avanga veetla kandipa ipo prachanaiya irukum da, Don't jump to conclusions.' Rakshan said

'machan ava enkita ivlo naal lam pesama irundhadhey illa da. Enamo thappa irukku, but I don't know what. Oru call, message... edhumey panla da, it's like she's just disappeared from my life.' Ajay's voice cracked

Naren, who had been standing by the window, sighed and walked over.

'You love her, right?' Naren questioned
