Started publishing on 1st of March 2016

Completed on 17th of August 2016

Hai readers, if you are still sticking with me, you are really great. A big thank you from my side. I am not a great author with a million reads, but I think I should take this opportunity to thank everybody who supported me.

First a big thank you goes to God. Without God's will this couldn't have happened. I am in the middle of my research work (I am doing my PhD now), took a break and mostly focused on this story for the past few months. A book with 73 chapters is not possible without God's will.

Next thank you to my dear readers who took the effort to press the star button, comment and message me. Early birds like aara_abdia, rajatamilselvi, muislam, marymfon, confused cakes, naajishaan, itzleanu who noticed my book when nobody did and gave me their precious votes and comments. Then came people like RogerVsDragon, pkaur (I am going to miss your long and sweet comments), preetgrewal 21, natashajess, sarupreethi, jothyjj, tommynivee, nahida, malarvizhijegan,gigglepot, ashamariam, Pharanicolas, Thivykamal, Dhivya 1998 who swept me off my feet.

Silent readers a big 'thank you' to you too. To each one of you. You matter too.

In our society we have high regard for writers and movie directors because they shape up our thought process and influence our mindset. In that way I am highly indebted to all my favorite authors like Balakumaran Sir, Sujatha Sir, Jeyamohan Sir, Vidhya Subramaniam Mam(Usha), Ayn Rand, Vennila Mam, Dhamayanthi Mam, Salma Mam, S.Ramakrishnan Sir, Amish Sir, Vishali Kannadasan, Kannadasan Aiya, Ki.Ra Aiya, Sudha Murthy Mam, Ramani Chandran Mam, Thiruvalluvar and many many more writers.

Directors like Mani Sir, Shankar Sir, Vineeth Srinivasan, Gautam Vasudev Menon Sir, Ram Sir, Antony Thirunelveli Sir (Director of Neeya Naana talk show).

My love to my Amma who introduced me to the world of books, who showed me the joy of reading, who taught me to appreciate music, who got me acquainted with her favorite authors, poets, movies and directors, who showed me what love is. Love you Amma.

My due thanks to my husband for bearing with me for the past few months when he almost donated his laptop to me (Yes, I am typing in his laptop). He doesn't read books but he still supported me when I said I am writing. Though he is still concerned about my PhD which is hanging in the middle :(

My Father who never fails to remind me that he is proud about me.

I don't want to sound like Chetan Bhagat, still I have to thank Microsoft Word. It makes editing a little simpler. Of course Google, and all those people who came forward to share their knowledge online, for free. There are many resourceful books available for free. Hats off to all those kind hearted souls. Then to Wattpad for giving me this platform.

Last but not the least my friend who introduced me to Wattpad. SPP, you may never read this book. But still if you are reading this a great thank you. You are what Anbu or Maari is to Kayal. We start our conversation from wherever we stopped last time, even if last time was almost a year back. Thanks for being that friend.

Will I edit this book?

I agree there are few grammatical errors in this book. There are few spelling mistakes Eg. I have spelt Imam as Imaam, Immam and Imam. Yes, I can spell the same word in three ways. I edit my work as much as possible before publishing. But there is always something which escapes my attention.
