Aryan removed his hands from his hold as they reached the terrace and said " theva illa sitara "

Sitara was looking at him with tear brimmed eyes while he said with a sigh " odanju pona kannaadi kaayam dhaan paduthum ..... namma relationshipum apdi dhaan ... vitrunga "

Sitara held his shirt collar and asked " ethana varusham aanalum mannika maateengala ?"

Aryan controlled himself from drowning into those sparkling eyes and released himself from her grip and said " neenga pannadhuku equallaa naanum thappu pannirken . adhellaam nenachaale..... venaam sitara vitrunga .... ungalukum enakum ... edhum othuvaraadhu I want you to move ... "

Sitara looked at him and pulled him closer to her pecking his lips looking into his eyes with anger and a bit of obsession which was clearly emitted in her expressive eyes " move on... naanum seri thappu pannirkomnu porumaya pona un ishtathuku foreign poi ukkaandhupa varushakkanakula .... ipo vandhu pesna moveon aaga solluviyo. Thappu dhaa naa pannadhellam thappu dhaa adhukaaga ... un tarava thooki kuduthuruviya ? "

Aryan released himself from her grip and turned around not saying anything and his fisted hands and shivering body showcased his inner struggled to her without any hinderance she continued " idho ipo kooda enna izhuthu hug panna nenaikureenga aana control pannikureenga .... veruthuteengala Arya enna ?"

She sobbed while he shouted " ennaye enaku pudikala d ...... "

Sitara looked at him while he shouted " naa en apdi behave pannanum ... naa en adhellaam seiyanum... un mela irundha kovatha naa en apdi oru vidhathula express pannanu...... en en annan enna valathadha regret panra maari nikkanum .... venaa Sitara .... ennaalaye enna mannika mudila adhum nee pesnadhu kaadhukulla odikite iruku .... idhoda ennaala un kooda patch aaga mudiyaadhu..... enga enna vittu poirumo poirumonu bayandhu bayandhu oru vaazhka vaazhradhuku thani thaniya sandhoshama ilenaalum nimmadhiya irundhutu poiralaam please... "

Sitara was looking at him with tears and asked " so idhaan unga decision apdi dhaana ?"

Aryan closed his eyes and said " aama "

Sitara wiped her tears and said " appo en decisionayum ketukonga unga vaayalaye namma kalyanathuku naal paaka sollunu solla vachu ennodaye iruka vaikuren " still holding his shirt from front. 

Aryan turned around and smirked saying " tch tch tch ... india's famous playback singerla self confidence adhigama dhaa irukum . enaku 20 naalla marubadi singaporeku flight . Charu vikranth marriage mudunja next 3 hoursla naa India vittu poiruve ..... indha pinnaadi vandhu pesi en decisiona maatha vaikalaamnu kanavula kooda nenaikaadha "

Sitara raised her eyebrow and said " Challenge accepted my dear Arya aana challenge panradhuku munnaadi konjam unga kai enga irukunu paathutu pesna nalla irukum "

Aryan just now realised his hands were securely wrapped around her waist which he took away in a moment and slapped himself mentally while she kissed his cheek and left the place saying " varatta maamey " which he looked at with a smile after she left the place. Aryan have realised his fair share of mistake and though the words Sitara used was ringing in his mind still he could find that his actions were equally responsible for her rash behaviour in past. Though he could understand all these he was afraid to give them a chance .....not just because of the hurt he have experienced but for not hurting her anymore and the action he did out of rage have turned their understanding and trust into a question mark especially all the changes they underwent all these years made him think a lot before taking a step as he was clearly aware that neither of them are the same as they were when they fell in love . 

Aryan looked at the stars from the terrace while he found another person standing beside him . Aryan's eyes widened in happiness and he pounced on the figure squealing " jaggu " while Jagadish let out 2 drops of tears as he missed Aryan sooo much in these years . He wiggled away from his hold and said " yaar neenga enna edhuku katti pudikureenga ? oruthi pannadhuku ellaarkum punishment kuduthutu poiteengalla ponga "

Aryan let out a sigh and said " enda neeyuma ellaam therunjum ipdi pesra ?"

Jagadish looked at him with a sigh and said " ipdi sandaikulaam foreign poi varushakanakula varaama irukanumna naanum Mithravum vaazhnaal fulla foreignalaye kuppa kotta vendi dhaa . unga rendu perukum onnu evlo periya vishayamnaalum assaultaa poiranum illa chinna vishayathuku mothama vettikitu poiranum . en ipdi irukeenga ?"

Aryan looked at Jagadish with a sigh and said " unaku sonnaalum ppuriyaadhu . seri engala vidu .. nee enna panra ? maithrayie epdi iruka ? veetla therunju prechana aayruchunu kelvi patte "

Jagadish smiled at him and said " enakkenna na L & T la permanent job ... nalla salary.... mithravum anga dhaa work panra . caste problem avanga veetla othukave maatennu ukaandhurukaanga . iva dhaa avana thavirthu yaarayaachu kalyanam panna sonna yosikaama enga porenu sollaama poiruvenu merati vachuruka . avanga veetla oru step mela poi suicide threatlaam kuduthutaanga iva ennana assaultaa nalla kayara naane vaangi thare sethurunta . "

Aryan looked at him with widened eyes and asked " deii enna irundhaalum avala pethu valathavangada ipdiya pesuva ?"

Jagadish sighed and said " idhe dhaan anna naanum keten . adhuku avanga life mudunjuchu oru porukiyo porambokko illa mattamaana family irukuravana love panni vera reasonna kooda kekalaam castelaam oru reasonaa solli en lifeah keduka paakuraanga idhukulaam aama saami poda mudyadhu ennaala . 2 years paapom casteaye puduchutu thonguna veeta vittu veliya vandhuruve mama athaita ipove sollirunu solta . "

Aryan looked at him with a happiness erupting in him as the trust the both had on each other was clearly visible by the way Maithrayie has spoken . He also analysed for nth time on why the trust he and Sitara had on each other broke and why didn't they try to sort it just like these people instead of making a mess out of it . 

Jagadish read his thoughts and said " saapda polaama na 10 vagaila saapada vachurukaanunga . saniyanoda nichayardharthathuku vandhadhuku idhu mattum dhaa urupadi . seekram vaanga en rendu thollaigalum thinnu theekuradhukulla konjama vaaila potukalaam "

Aryan laughed and followed him . Maithrayie was out for an onsite project and she was unable to attend the engagement . Jagadish took Aryan to the dining and they sat opposite to Charu and Vikranth who were having their  food with sweet nothings and the next moment Aryan felt Sitara sitting near him and though he felt happy internally he glared at her to which she never paid any heed and started eating . Aryan noticed people gossiping and media channels covering them in all possible angles while Aryan said in a low voice " ippo edhuku ipdi en koodave orasitruka ? nee celebrity ella media channelum cover pantrukaanga ennanna news varumnu theriyumla ?"

Sitara shrugged her shoulder and said " valarndhu varum pinnani paadagi thirumana vaibavathil oru aadavanudan nerukkam .... kadhala ? apdinu ketu vapaan naa aamanutu poiruven "

Aryan bit his teeth and said " adhuku ennoda concernum venum "

Sitara looked at him with jeera dropping in her lips and said " neenga ippovum eppovum taravoda arya dhaa andha nambikka enaku iruku "

Aryan smirked and said " indha nambikka appo engad pochu unaku . vandhuta perusa pesa "

Sitara's face fell and Aryan mentally slapped himself for hurting her again even after years and said " idho idhuku dhaa idhuku dhaa solre othu varaadhunu "

Sitara corrected her facial expression and fed him a piece of gulabjamun even before he could react and said " appo enga pochunu therla ... aana ini naa sethaalum indha nambika pogaadhu. cheesyaa irukum keka aana unma adhaan ... saapdunga nalla iruku "

Aryan widened his eyes in shock and swallowed the gulab jamun with much difficulty. It felt more sweeter than it was ever and  he bit his inner cheeks to not let out a smile while she smiled and said " ungaluku naa ooti vittadhu pudikalana thirupi ooti vittu kadana muduchukalaam "

Aryan glared at her to which she smiled and ate by taking few food items from his leaf and feeding him inbetween which he got without creating a fuzz as he knew she would not leave him until he gets the food . Everyone in the dining were looking at these two wiedly while Sitara's parents and charu vikranth looked at them with happiness . 

Charu " naa dhaa sonnenla ivan avlo worth illa avala paathone flat aayruvaannu "

Vikranth looked at Aryan and said " mmhum ... nee nenaikura maari edhum illa un annan ippo dhaa confusion statelaye irukaan .... namba vaikuradhu romba kashtam "

Charu looked at him with fightened look and said " innum ethana varushamya saami "

Vikranth shrugged his shoulder and said " adhu en thangachi saamarthyam . mutti modhi varatum nee un annana paakama enna paaru ippovaachu "

Charu sighed and hit his cheeks saying " aama apdiye kandukaadha maariye pesunga . nichayam fix panra vara nalla dhaa irundheenga adhukaprom enna pei puduchucho therla thaniya meet pannave bayama iruku .... manushanada nee?"

Vikranth smirked and said " Kalyanathukaprom sollu manushana ennanu "

Charu gulped remembering their first kiss on the day her parents finalised their marriage date and said " oru bed solliru edhukum hospitalla "

Vikranth rubbed his nape with embarassment as he himslef found him unleashingly wild in her proximity and said " theva pattaalum padum " to which charu chocked on her food and glared at him and they both laughed together with blush creeping to their cheeks . 

Sitara was eating happily while she noticed a figure sitting to her opposite with yearning in his eyes while Sitara's face hardened and she turned her face aside and Aryan looked at the person and even his face hardened seeing him .... AYAAN.... '

The dark days widened infront of their eyes and they both looked at each other travelling back to those days . 

Aryan was in his last phase of internship and it was on L&T . Sitara was finely tuned by Ayaan that Aryan and Sitara had so many fights in between and she picked up fight for anything and everything he said in past while Aryan lased back and never thought of explaining as he thought if she needs explanation she should be asking and not lashing . though they had fights they will turn out all lovey dovey within 2 days and mostly Sitara would be the one to come down as Aryan once he attains his peak of irritation never attends her calls or her messages which had actually  created frustration in her which is piling up and finding time to burst out. 

Aryan was working in L&T and he also found Ashwathi in his team which surprised him and he did maintain distance from her at the first keeping her past deeds in mind . One week was fine and the next week she came near him as the office hours was over . 

Ashwathi " Aryan .."

Aryan stood and asked " yes " in most formal tone and Ashwathi looked at him with innocent looks and said " I am sorry Aryan .. naa andha timela.. ptch  epdi solradhu .... i was on my breakup phase and naa edhayume mean panni pannala "

Aryan folded his hands and looked at her with confusion and asked " idha ipo edhuku en kitta solitrukeenga ?"

Ashwathi stumbled in his looks and said " adhu .... idhuku munaadi ellaa internshiplayum i had someone or other to support me emotionally and morally ... like school friends and past college friendsnu ... indha internshipla i just know you .. adhumattumillaama sorry kekanumnu thonuchu adhaan . i am extremely sorry . Sitara tayum naa apologise pannirndhe "

Aryan remembered Sitara saying this and smiled at her saying " its ok neenga onnum venune pannalaye . vidunga innum 3 months ku we have internship here edhum prechanaina sollunga "

Ashwathi smirked internally and said " Thankyou aryan ... if you don't mind inaiku mattum enna enoda pgla drop pannira mudiyuma ? en vandi service vitruke "

Aryan thought for a moment and said ok and thought of dropping her . Ashwathi smirked and sat beside him and thought of holding his shoulder before which Aryan said " sidela iruka supporta pidichukonga and konjam thalli ukkaarunga i don't feel comfortable with this proximity " straight to her face which made her face darken and she held the bars while she smirked at someone who had already took a picture of her trying to keep hand on her shoulder while he was smiling which gave another dimension .

Sitara was smiling looking at her ring and she was caressing a portrait she drew recently . The portrait had their moment of exchanging the rings drawn perfectly in backdrop of beach and she thought of gifting this portrait as soon as he comes back to the college for their 2nd love anniversary.

Aryan called her and she picked the call with a smile and he called " oye baarya ... enna panreenga?"

Sitara smiled at the way he addressed her as wife in malayalam and she replied " thinking of you bartha ... 2 months aagudhu paathu "

Aryan said " aamama miss panra letchanam 2 maasathula 20 sanda potuta "

Sitara was angered and said " eppovum enna dhaa blame pannuveengala  sandaiku ? naa enna venune va panren "

Aryan himself was irritated as she has lost the way of even interpreting jokes and taking everything offensively and said " innoru sanda poda enaku mood illa thara vera edhaachu pesu pls irritate pannaadha neeyum "

Sitara thought of reverting back but the tiredness in his voice made her calm and asked out of concern " ennaachu pa romba workaa iruka ?"

Aryan smiled and said " mm pulunjedukuraanga . aang andha ponnu perenna en classmate ... mm... nee kooda sorry ketaanu sonniye "

Sitara smiled and said " Ashwathi ... kooda padikura ponnu per kooda nyaabagam illaya "

Aryan smiled embarassingly and said " mm ava dhaa innaiku vandhu sorry keta ... naanum avalum orey team dhaa pola onsite worksku so konjam kooda maada work pannanumnu pesikitom "

Sitara didn't find this settling well with her but still she tried to maintain her calmness and said " mm ok unga ishtam you know better than  me "

Aryan smiled and said " eppoda intern mudiyumnu iruku d "

While Sitara smiled and checked the message notification and said " oru nimisham Arya " and opened the message to find the pictures of Ashwathi sitting in Aryan's bike from an anonymous number  and the picture gave another dimension for her inbuilt insecurities and Aryan started speaking without knowing her mindset " inga ponnungalaam nalla semmaya irukaanga tara . andha style , the way they speak , andha confidence ... neraya per admire pante irukalaam pola andha gethu avlo attractive. nee andha maari confidentaa  "

Sitara got irritated by his way of appreciating other girls and refrained herself from saying anything to not spoil the mood . Though the pictures created a havoc in her and the way he was sharing the way he admires few qualities of other girls were kindling her insecurities the trust she had on him was the only thing which was driving her still now . she said to herself " if he had any other intentions he don't have the need to explain you . maybe as a help avar drop pannirkalaam perusa eduthukaadha " to herself and talked with him for few more minutes before retiring to bed . She opened the anonymous number and texted " who are you ?"

while it replied " your wellwisher "

which confused her and she drifted off to sleep with confusions and insecurities slowly eating up the beaty of their relationship and the trust she was having on Aryan .
