Ratan walks out of Lalita's room.

Ratan POV:
I know the reason behind my worry. But I didn't want to enclose to anyone at the same time can't keep it myself. Diya's sudden behavior towards me was so much troubling. I found it so rude. Who would block just like that? Even if she isn't cared about it why should I? Who would like to be avoided that too without any purpose?

I hate myself to think about her but desperate to know why she did.
The world is like that... using people like tissues and throwing away after their work is done.... i didn't feel Diya would be one of them... same time i shouldn't be judgemental. Right now I need to ditch her thoughts and start to focusing about my future. As paati said I must be dutiful towards my family. Like my brothers I should be contributing something. Diya is like temporary cloud in my path.. she faded away and its all over. I made up my mind to get serious.

My happiness depends on me and I will not temporary things to ruin it. Yea man! That sounds like Ratan! Now I feel somewhat relieved... Ada! By now briyani must be ready! That is truly fulfilling sundays... yes... i moved to kitchen to relish that...

***End of POV***

At the kitchen, Nandhini was transferring the briyani in a hotbox and Durga making vegetable gravy.

Nandhini POV:
I was manually putting the rice into the hotbox. My mind was totally taken away by him. I still felt his touches on me. Even when I close my eyes his racing breath near my neck, arms around me, his soft hair tickiling my ears was flashing. Omg... he is really... very worst! I never expected him to make up in the kitchen! I would love romancing in kitchen but not never like this...

I blushed hard... his attitude makes me fall for him again and again. I was too afraid as Durga akka or someone might barge in. But he... especially while having the carrot! His cool look especially when his first shirt button is opened it is so hot.
I hell love this side of him more than the caring or tender side. His smirk, naughtiness, features, intense eyes... damn the way he looks at me, it makes me so lost and nervous. It would give goosebumps even if I think about it. Ohhh... Nandhini! he is driving you crazy. As I always say, he has my heart and i have completely given it to him.

Biting my lips, as my thoughts run around him i went to fridge to take curd. I was still feeling he standing behind me.... i am so stupid! I tried my best to hide my expressions before her but..

"What are you thinking?" Durga akka asked smiling. Die Nandhini!
"Nothing... about briyani... hehe"
I said. I know its so lame. She was about to ask something, Ratan barged in correctly!

"I am back!" He said enthusiastically. He is cute person. I would wonder sometimes are we long lost siblings. Most of the things between us match.
"Yes your favorite meal is ready!"
She remarked. I felt its the perfect time to escape from there.

I excused myself to call Chandra for lunch and walked to our room.
Entering in, i saw him sitting on the sofa with legs crossed watching TV. I resembled myself to be grumpy. I folded her arms and looked at him. I felt insulted as he didn't notice me.

"Chandra?" I spoke out trying to be stern.

"Yea!"
He answered normally looking at the TV.

"Look at me."
I demanded.

"yes, tell dear!"
He turned to me. He gave a expressionless face expecting me to speak up. How dare he? How he acts like nothing happened?
