???? Nenjemellam Pala Vannam ????

As Mithra lit the lamp, Aanav watched her adoringly with his hands crossed against his chest. Her face sparkled due to the illumination of light. He kneeled beside her and tugged her strand of hair. She looked at him and smiled.

Aanav: ivvalavu easy ah nee enaku kedaipanu naan nenachu kooda paakala di.

Mithra: namma parents ku than thanks sollanum. Avangala mathiri parents kedaika namma kuduthu vachirukanum.

Aanav: unmai than. By the way madam ippo ellam extra va jollikuringale. En ponnu pannura velaiya?

Saying so he was about to touch her tummy. But she swat that away.

Mithra: first uh samy kumbidunga.

Aanav huskily: athuku appuram unna kumbidava?

She looked away blushing and held his cheeks, turning him to look at the god. She kept the camphor in pooja plate and lit it before the both together did arti to the god.

Aadarsh looked at the living room wall, where his pictures were hung along with other family members. There were collection of his photos from his childhood as well. Those were taken when Aaditya brought him to their house along with Sanvi during his 10th standard.

Since then Aaditya had seen him voluntarily at schools and interacted with him so many times. He always invited Aadarsh to their house for each and every function. That's how Aadarsh got mingled with everyone in the family. He didn't knew till now that his moments with Sanvi and others were captured by Aaditya and made as beautiful memories.

Aadarsh mv: avanga panna torture ala ippadi patta oru thangamana manushara kaaya padutha nenachane. Neenga enna ungala amma nu koopida kooda neenga vitathu illa. Ella kuzhanthaiyum, yen valanthathuku appuram kooda sudden ah hurt analo illa azhuthalo first amma nu than sollum. Ana appadi kooda enna neenga solla vitathu illa. Aarambathula kashtama irunthalum athuve enaku pazhagiduchu. Athuvum oru vithathula nallathu than. Ennaikume en vaayala amma appadindra vaarthai ungala nenachu varave koodathu. Varavum varathu. Enaku enna kashtamnalum en manasulayum vaailayum first varathu en Sanvi than. Naan amma nu enna ariyama sonnalum athu en Sweety ah nenachu matum than. En vazhkaila neenga entha vitha santhoshathaiyum koduthathu illa. Ana ungaluke theriyama oru periya nallathu pannirukinga. Athu than en Sweetyum ava moolama enaku kedacha ithana uravugalum. Unga oruthar anbukaga yengi athunala naan bathikapattu, ippo varaikum oru muzhumaiyana vazhkaiya vazha mudiyama kashtapaduran. Ana ini konjam konjama nallagiduvenu enaku nambikai iruku.  Yena enaku kedaicha unmaiyana uravugal athigam en Sweetynala. Ini naan kandipa santhoshama vazhvan entha vitha kutra unarchiyum pazhi unarchiyum illama.

He bite his lips, controlling his emotions. All of a sudden his lips curled into smile when he felt his girl's hands wrapped around him from back.

Sanvi: rompa nerama ingaye ninnutu iruka. Appavum mathavangalum keezha poitanga. Namma room ah poi pakalama?

He took her palm, which was resting on his chest and kissed it with smile.

Aadarsh: appadi enna aarvam ennamo pudhusa paakura maathiri? Already than namaku decoration panni paathurukome.

Sanvi: appo unaku aarvam illa appadi thana?

Aadarsh mv: aarambichuta da. Iva track ah maathi sanda potu intha naala spoil panni athuku appuram kutra unarchila azhuthu vadikurathukulla nee track ah vera pakkam maathidu.

She moved before him, keeping her hands on the either side of her hip with raised eyebrows.

Sanvi: enna bathilaye kaanom?

Aadarsh grabbed her waist between her palms and squeezed them, sending shivers down her spine. He pulled her close to him and crushed their fronts.

Aadarsh huskily: atha paakuratha namaku mukkiyam. En aarvam ellam unna paakurathula than iruku di sweety.

She blushed instantly and pushed him away with much difficulty.

Sanvi: unaku athula aarvam eppadinu eanku theriyum. Ana ippo urutturanum enaku theriyum. Naan intha naala spoil aka maatan. Bayapadatha. Amma appava paathu sorry kekanum.

Wouldn't she know her fourteen years lover? Though she said everything confidently, she said last line with bit hesitant, unable to guess Aadarsh's opinion on this.

Aadarsh: dharalama kelu. Ana naan vara maatan.

Her face dropped more. He smiled and pinched her nose.

Aadarsh: nee avanga kooda thaniya konjam time spend pannu, Sweety. En pondatti en munnadi ava parents munnadi kooni kurugi nikkuratha ennala paaka mudiyathu. Unakum mama athaikum naduvula vara enaku viruppam illa. And naan already en mamanar mamiyarkita mannipu ketutan. Ana avanga enna sonnanga theriyuma?

She listened to him with wide eyes. She felt immense happiness to get him as her life partner. At the same time, she was bit scared about her parents reaction. She knew they had accepted them long back. But they would have definitely disappointed on their secret marriage. She felt guilt for that.

He held her shoulder and made her sit on the living room couch, before sitting down on the floor, keeping his head on her lap. She started caressing his hair habitually.

Aadarsh: avanga purinjukitanga enna. En insecurity ah. Innum neraya. Athellam naan innoru naal unkita soldran. Enaku konjam time kudu. Antha vishayangala nenachale en nenjellam baramaguthu di. Naan first uh athula irunthu velila vanthutu unkita share pandran.

Sanvi: nee enkita etho maraikuranu enaku rompa naala theriyum, Darsh. I understand you. Nee normal ah happy ah irunthale enaku pothum. Nee atha maranthudu. Enkita share pannanumnu illa. Ippo namma evlo periya family ah irukom. Namma family da. Thaniya secret ah vazhntha vazhkaiyoda stress ellam illama ini nimmathiya santhoshama vazhalam. Illa?

Aadarsh just nodded his head while thinking about his mother. He instanly shivered and gripped her saree tightly. She held his hand and patted his cheek.

Sanvi: ennachu da? Yen nadungura? En amma appa ethavathu...

Aadarsh corrected: namma amma appa enna ethuvum sollala, Sweety. En vishayamnu vantha nee avangala kooda santhega padura illa.

He lifted his head and looked at her. She cupped his cheeks and kissed his forehead deeply.

Sanvi: en amma appava naan santhegapadala,  Darsh. Avanga kandipa kova patruka maatanga. Ana avanga varuthapatrupanga thana? Avanga varuthathula manasu kashtapattu pesi, athu unakum kashtama irukanu keka vanthan.

Aadarsh: illa ma. Avanga enna avanga paiyana accept pannitanga. Amma appa nu koopida sonnanga. Enaku than avangala atha mama nu koopidanumnu aasai. Vazhkaila uravugale illama valanthavan di naanu. Inaiku enaku unnale ellame kedachiruku. Azhagana anbana pondatti kedachiruka. En appa kedachirukaru. Moonu mamanar maamiyar. Rendu amma appa. 5 thangachinga. Oru akka. 6 machanunga. 1 machinichi. Evlo uravugal intha anathaiku kedachiruku.

His eyes watered while saying itself. She slapped his cheek lightly with tears.

Sanvi: ethana thadava soldrathu unna neeye anathainu sollatha. Anathaina yaaru theriyuma? Veembunalayum varattu gavurvathalayum thanakunu oru uravu kooda illama thani marama nikkuravanga than. Unna naan ennaikavathu thaniya vitrukena, Darsh? Nee en uyiru da. Unna paatha secondla irunthu nee en manasula uruthite iruka da. Velila vanthathe illa. Appuram eppadi nee anathaiyava?

Aadarsh smiled and stood on his knees before hugging her, burying his face on her chest.

Aadarsh: love you di!
