SHREYA POV :

     My vision was gloomy as I cried in the bus for nearly 15 minutes . MONICA mam offered me water and it helped me to calm.

     But later , I felt ashamed to cry infront of my students but as I was hurt immensely it did not bother me much.

    The bus dropped me at me street enterance as a pit was dig for the pipeline connection.

     As I walk , " malipoo ,  mulapoo..poove poove.. " a lady shouted who was coming in the opposite direction with a fower basket in hand.

    I walk past her not wanting to remember the MALIGA who grabbed my MADHAN but again the loud speaker tied to the tower on account of upcoming temple function roared with the song

    " MALLIPOO vechu vechu vadhudhe... " my sour mind got much sick though I had vibed for this song uncountable times now it felt like " vecha vadhatha seiyum. "

        I paced faster into my house and closed it with a thud. My parents of home yet I was welcomed with the song " Malligayae malligayae  Maalai idum mannavan yaar sollu.. sollu.. " .

     To my ears it sounded like " Maliga .. maliga maalai idum MADHAN thana sollu "

     I grabbed TV remote and switched it off. I stromed into my room.

     I sat in the bed and looked at the gift in my hand with teary eyes.

      It felt like ... I have lost my heart. I have lost a part of soul. I can't take the sight of him being close or love with any girl .

     I slept without even changing my dress.

       Since , I had slept in the evening. I was wide awake at night scrolling through insta.

        " Are you awake ? " A message from MADHAN in whatsapp.

        Should I respond back.

         Noo...

         But ... the thirukural has said இன்னா செய்தாரை ஒறுத்தல்அவர் நாண .....
Ohh I forgot the rest ...

        But giving respect to thiruvalluvar. I replied him " Ya... "

        " Come to terrace  . " He replied.

        " how come I come to your terrace now. ? " I questioned genuinely.

          🙄🙄🤯🤯

          He replied " To your terrace ... "  with the above emoji.

          " What are you doing in my terrace ? " I questioned while I push the duvet and  opened the door.

           I paced faster with thoughts ... How did he come? What was he doing  ? If someone caught him in my terrace then..?

           I unlocked my door and ran upstairs.. I wondered a lot all through out the path just to find him staring at the stars in the sky.

           " What are you upto ? Why did you come here ? " I asked in alow tone on reaching him . I am sure I sounded quite irritated.

         He just turned and took a moment then with a smile said " Wish me . "

         " What ? " I asked confused.

         " Just still four mins left for my birthday to end. I expected you to wish me in personal or text .yet you did not so I came to get what I want. " he said, and his eyes held a lot of anticipation and hurt.

          I ran down while he yelled my name at my back.

         " 2 mins " saying I ran like being chased by a stray dog.

         I rushed into house and grabbed the gift then the Athirasam ( Indin doughnut ), which was in the shelf grabbed my attention.

         Taking it along with a candle , I ran back.

          A relief washed over his face when he caught my sight.

          I lighted the candle and urged him to blow, making a wish.

         " Can I wish for a lifetime with you ? " he asked.

        " Huh ? " I questioned taken back by his question
  
         He cleared his throat and asked " Can I make a lifetime wish ?"

      Frustrated ... " wish whatever and blow it just a minute left. " I said forward the plate of Athirasam

         He, too,  did with a chuckle and smile.

        Then I took a part of Athirasam and stuffed into his mouth while he did the same .

         I gave him the gift saying " manda bathram MATHS sir. "

       He unwrapped it and chuckled asked " Gifting for a life time journey aa Science mam. "

        " Life time ku lam chance iruka ??... atha Maths sir ku MALIGA mam irukagalee," I said, little annoyed.

        " Ellarum iruka mam. Yaralum innorthar edhatha replace panna mudhiyuma mam " he asked leaning forward.

        " Mudhiyadha sir ?" I asked leaning along with anticipation.

          "  Kastam nu solla mudhiyathu mam but impossible nu sollala " he said leaning much more .

          " Ena bike la kottithu povigala , epo... " I asked with anticipation leaving all the vekkam and mannam .

          " Uttaravu rani avargale " he said dramatically bending his head as if he took my summon

         " 2 mins " I said and rushed to change into something descent from the night wear and jumped the compound wall of my house with his help.

         This man is making me do the things I least imagined ever in my life.

        I never imagined .. I would elope in the middle if night butter here.
