Sorry for the late update friends😅! It's because of my health problems!

Happy reading📖 ❤😘!

கண்ணாளனின் காதல் பார்வையில்,
கற்சிற்பம் கூட உயிர் பெற்று சொல்லும்..
மீண்டும் தன்னை பார்க்க சொல்லி..

Kannalanin kadhal paarvaiyil,
Karsirpam kooda uyir petru sollum..
'Meendum thannai paarka solli'.

(Seeing his lovely intense look,
Even the statue turns as human begging him to just look one more time at it.)

Kannamma's POV!

I saw them coming towards us. Pooja waved at us enthusiastically with a bright smile. As soon as coming near us, she engulfed us one by one in a bear hug. When she went to hug my anna, he hesitated a bit but she didn't even care anything and hugged him.

Enough ammu enough.. Shall we move if you are done with your greetings? Kavin asked her teasingly.

Shut up you dummy! You didn't even intro us properly! She pouted. He gave a oops look.

Yeah.. Leave him ammu! He is such a waste! Ryt! Let me introduce them! He is Mr.Mughilan, my Ilakya's.. I mean our Ilakya's would-be. She is Kannamma, his sister and my lovely mi chan😉. And she is brinjal aka Maya, his another sister. Kathir introduced us with a flirty tone.

Wait wait! What you mean by Kannamma is your mi chan? Maya questioned him. He smirked.

Uhmm.. If I'm her doraemon means, then obviously she is my mi chan ryt?? Kathir questioned back her with a playful smirk. Maya narrowed her eyes at me.

Can you explain kanns? She asked me in a warning tone. I glared Kathir.

He is playing maya! I whined glaring Kathir.

Ouch! How can you say that kanns! You wounded my poor heart! Kathir said faking worried tone placing his hand over his chest.

Then can you explain us? Mughil asked him raising his brow. I think Kathir forgot that mughil also here🤭! Poor Kathir!

Uhmm.. Nothing machan! I'm just playing! Hehe😁😁 Kathir said with a sheepish grin. Pooja laughed at him.

Anna don't leave him like this! He is always flirt with all cute girls including me! Just give him a punch😂 Pooja said while laughing.

If you are all done with your playing means, shall we move now!? Kavin said sounding little annoyed which I don't know why.

Ok! Let's go! Pooja chirped.

We all walked for few minutes. Maya jumped seeing a merry go round🎠 there.

Anna! Please can we ride that!?? Please Anna please😫🙏🙏💓! She showed her best puppy dog eyes. My anna nodded with a smile. She jumped in excitement. She dragged all of us. I resisted to go. But she is no mood to leave us.

I love these kind of rides, but if I go means some will mock me like if I sat in that means it will broke. I hate that kind of comments. So, I control myself from getting excited for these kind of things.

She dragged all of us and asked the man who operated how much price. After asking him, my anna paid and she ran and sat in one horse gesturing all of us to come and sit in swings.

Kathir and kavin sat in one swing. Anna and anni in one. I stood still not knowing what to do. Pooja dragged me and sat in one swing and made me to sat beside her. She gripped my arms like I'm her favorite toy.

The ride started. At first it was slow and smooth. But it gets faster sec by sec. We all yelled in excitement. Pooja literally hugged me tightly while giggling. I too giggled and yelled. Kathir started video recording in his mobile.

After few minutes of ride, it slows down and stopped. We all got down and started walking towards the sea.

It is pure bliss to gaze the sea! I love sea gazing, moon gazing and rain gazing ❤! It reduce my stress and calms my tensions. We all stand in the sea shore. Waves slowly came towards us and wet our foot. The chillness gave a tingling sensation to my whole body.

While enjoying that closing my eyes, cold water splashed in my face with a force. I opened my eyes irritatingly to see the culprit. That was kathir!

I glared him and tried to pour water on him. But he started running. Pooja caught him smiling victoriously while maya splashed water on his face. Kavin, anna and anni was laughing badly at him. I joined them in laughing.

Kathir saw us laughing and poured water on Kavin's face. He was shocked first but soon composing himself, he started splashing water on all of us. Within seconds, we started water fight. Kathir, pooja and I on one side while anna, anni, maya and kavin on other side.

Beach was already crowded and everyone was enjoying in their own worlds so we didn't got any unwanted attentions which I'm really grateful for.

After playing enough, we laughed realising our craziness.  We all joined and started walking towards the sand. While walking, I slipped. I closed my eyes to face the pain which I'm going to get. But suddenly two arms wrapped around my waist locking me from falling.

The touch was familiar yet disturbing. I slowly opened my eyes to know who is my savior. It was him! Kavin!

He locked my waist with his arm looking my eyes intently. Oh my goodness! Why he is doing this to me!? God! Save me!

I felt my heart started its marathon and the sleeping insects and butterflies in my stomach started dancing. He didn't leave me nor I tried to get rid from his hold.

The sound of someone's clearing throat bring us back to earth. He hurriedly left me after making me stand carefully and distanced himself. I felt some emptiness when he left me.

Pooja cleared her throat again. We saw everywhere but each other. He muttered something under his breath while ruffling his messy hair.

Loosu! You can't even walk properly! My anna scolded me. I know it's just the beginning. The main picture will be in my home after we return.

I just smiled sheepishly not knowing what to do. Kathir came and hold my hands.

Come on kanns! It's my duty to protect you. I'm your doraemon isn't it!? Kathir said with a wink which my anna cleared his throat. I saw him. He saw me with mixed expressions like confusion, suspicion, etc..

I know what this look means. I just gestured him that I explain him later. He nodded little.

Anna!! Icecream🍨!!!! Maya yelled in excitement seeing the icecream truck in beach with 100 watts face.

We chuckled and went near that and bought icecream for everyone and we enjoyed it.

Come on guys! Let's take a groupfie😉! It's a sin if we didn't took a selfie when we dressed good and come for outing ryt? Pooja said.

We all stood for taking selfie in her apple iPhone. We all smiled brightly. We all took several selfies. Individually and in groups.

Kathir dragged me and took a selfie. Maya dragged me from kathir and she took a selfie. But kathir in no mood to leave, he again dragged me. Later they both started their eye fight and it turned to hand fight. I secretly took their pics while they fighting.

And about others, anna and anni in their worlds. Taking pics, blushing, smiling and all. I secretly took their candid pics.

Kavin and pooja was laughing and taking selfies. I felt little discomfort. Not because they are together, but he didn't took pics with me!??, I guess.

While talking with her, he saw me suddenly. Damn! He caught me while staring him!! Great!

He tried to tell something but gulped back his words. Pooja saw me and asked me to come there. I went near her. She took selfies of three of us. I smiled brightly than before which I can't control from doing so.

Later that, we decided to go home. Pooja became friend for all of us in a short time yet I can't mingle with her wholeheartedly which I don't know why.

Anna invited her to our home. She agreed and told that she'll surely come after the engagement happily.

We returned to our home after that. We had our dinner. We shared about Pooja and the happenings. They too liked Pooja. In fact, my anna is the one who made them like her. Actually, he liked her a lot because of her coolest attitude. After that, Maya went to her bed straight because of her tiredness.

I decided to go to bed early today. But my anna stopped me by holding my wrist. I saw him questioning. He gestured towards the terrace.

I nodded and we both went to terrace. He saw with little hesitation.

Spill it anna! What are you thinking?  I asked him. He smiled nervously.

That Kannamma.. I know you'll share me every thing which is important but I can't control myself from asking this! He said. I nodded with a smile. He continued.

That Kathir.. Is he liking you? He asked. I know what he meants! But I decided to play with him!

Yes anna! What about that!? I asked innocently suppressing my laugh.

Uhmm.. You didn't understand Kannamma.. Okay now answer this! Did you.. like him? He asked hesitantly.

I nodded Of course anna! I'm! I like him! Why are you asking this!? I asked him with a confused expression.

Not like that d! I'm asking.. That.. He's flirting with you.. And.. You too didn't mind it.. What this means!? He almost whispered.

Yes! What's wrong in that anna? I showed my best innocent face suppressing my laughing. He let out a frustrated sigh!

Kannammmaaaa!!!! I'm asking did you have a crush on him or what?!? He asked with annoyance.

I can't control anymore, I started laughing my heart out! 😂😂  he saw me like I'm one of the weirdest creature in this world.

Why are you laughing like mental? Did I said some joke? He asked frustrated and confused.

Then what! Isn't that a joke? We both became friends anna! That he saved me one day! I blabbered without thinking.

Oops! It's going to be tough!

What! He saved you?? How!? When! Where? He started his never ending enquiring questions.

I mentally slapped myself for my stupidity.

That.. One day, I fainted in the road. You remember? That day before your pre engagement, I texted that I'll be late that day. I paused, he nodded.

Yup! That day, I fainted and he saved me by getting me to hospital. And we became friends. About the flirtings, that's his natural character. I saw him as like you only anna. And he too saw me as his good friend that I know very well! Don't confuse yourself! I said the half truth about that day.

Kannamma! Why the hell you hide it from us all?!? He asked while glaring me.

That anna.. I hide this because you all will worry about me and your whole pre engagement will be spoilt then. That's why I hide it anna. Sorry! I held my both ears cutely. He smiled and patted my head.

Hereafter don't even think like that! Nothing is more important than my cute devil's life! He asked. I nodded smiling😊.

Come let's go to sleep! He said.

No anna! You go! I'll come after spending sometime for moon gazing. I said. He shook his head negatively with a smile (like 'ithulam enga urupada poguthu' look😝) and left.

My mobile beeped once. I ignored. Then it beeped twice, thrice and started ringing. I took it and saw the caller id which is unknown number.

I attended it and placed on my ear. I heard the voice which the least I expected. Him! Rakesh!

Hello dear! How are you? He asked. My hands become shaky hearing his voice. I don't know what to do. I just turn on the record option.

Why.. Why are.... you calling me? I stammered. He laughed evilly.

Why? You are asking me why?? Don't you know why?? Why because For what you did to me! Because of you, I'm now living my life hiding! He barked.

No! It's not because of me but you! You  are the only reason for what you and I are now! As you sow, so you reap! I said mustering the courage in me.

Oh wow! Looks like my kannamma became courageous now! Isn't it!? Then be more courageous d! You have to face more!! He said gritting his teeth.

What you want? Why are you torturing me? I literally begged him.

Because I want to! I want to torture you! And I forgot to ask, who is he in that shop? He asked me evilly.

That's not your problem! Get away from me! I said angrily.

What! How come that he is not my problem when he is your boyfriend! No.. No.. More than that! Isn't it? I heard the conversation my dear kannamma! Don't try to hide it from me! He said.

I don't know where the hell he was that day and noticed everything!

No.. You mistook. He is.. He is not my boyfriend and if so also, that's not your concern! Stay away from me!! I'll call police! I said.

Do you think I'm this much dumb to call you with my own number. It's from someone I don't know who he or she is. I just borrowed this mobile to call you! And I'll be gone from this place within seconds! They can't find me.. Even you can't! Anyways bye dear! Meet you soon! Wait for me! He said and hung up.

I cried hugging my legs while sitting in the terrace for sometime. The next day is Sunday. I woke up and texted Kathir that I want to meet him today. He agreed.

I said that I'm going to Jo's house as excuse to my parents. I got ready and went to the ice cream parlor which is in the place where we met that demon and we both became frnds.

He came within 5 mins and took seat opposite to me.

What happened kanns! Any problem? Why you asked me to come here suddenly? He shooted the questions one by one.

Wait Kathir! I said and took my mobile with a headset and asked him to wear that. He did what I said. I played the audio which I recorded yesterday night.

He heard that calmly and tensed within few seconds. He saw me with a shock face. After hearing that, he did something with my mobile keeping near his mobile.

Don't worry kanns! I forwarded it to my mobile. I'll surely give this to police and we'll find him soon and hand him to police! He said. I just nodded.

Kanns! Why are you like this!? Just be calm and smile! This serious face doesn't suits you!! Trust me! I'll take care of him! He whined like a kid. I smiled little.

Uhmm.. Kannamma! I guessed one thing. But I'm not so sure. He said.

What? I asked curiously.

I think he is not here for somedays! During your convo, we can hear the horn sounds. And he gave the hint that he'll be in somewhere within few minutes. So obviously, he is moving as he may guessed that police is searching him here! He said which relaxed me little. I nodded thoughtfully.

He is right. I can hear the horn sounds while he talked. And he said that he'll be not in one place. May be he is in bus station or something!

After that we chit chatted for sometime.

Oyee! Kannamma! Did you talk with your brother!? Did he ask something about me? Kathir asked suddenly while talking.

Huh!? What? I asked confusedly.

I think mughil machan mistook us. I mean mistook my flirtings! Saying this, he smiled sheepishly.

That.. How you know? I asked surprisingly.

Come on kanns! I'm also a boy! I can guess what's in his mind by his looks. He said.

Then I said what happened. He laughed hearing me.

He is really my doraemon! He knows how to lighten up my mood within seconds!

After that, I left to my home. And the next day is engagement. So everyone is busy with the arrangements. I helped my mom in the things.

The day went by. And the next day, that is Monday! It's my brother's engagement day! Or 'Pattu kattuthal' function.

I got up early by my amma's nice words. I quickly took bath and tried to drape the saree which is selected by him.

I smiled and blushed at the thought. Maya too showered and asked me drape the half saree for her. I successfully draped for her but me. I can't take the fleets properly. It slipped everytime. Already I spent more than one hour. Maya too tried but all in vain.

I heard Jo's voice in hall. I think she came early to help🤩! My savior. I mentally smiled and sent maya to call her here. Within minutes, I heard the door knock sound. Jo yelled that was her.

I opened the door slowly. She came inside and laughed seeing me. I just wore my blouse and inskirt. I wore my appa's shirt to cover myself 😁. She came and took the fleets properly and draped the saree perfectly.

Within 10 mins, she draped it. And I quickly combed my hair and let it fall free on my back. I farded mildly with kajal, lipgloss and small bindi.

Maya also ready in her half saree which I draped her. We went outside from my room and saw surya sitting in sofa with my brother. Diya in my brother's lap.

We all had our breakfast and started to their home. Some of our relatives also came as most will come for marriage only. We all reached there in van with our relatives and neighbors.

We entered their home. My eyes automatically searched for him.

May be because I want to show the saree🙄!

Tell that to yourself!

My mind mocked me which I shrugged it off! We all seated in hall. Pooja came and sat besides me. She was indeed beautiful in her saree. She looks too cute. She came near my ear and whispered Kavin and kathir went out to buy some things!

I saw her shocked. Why she is informing me this.

Kathir is your bestie ryt? I know you'll be searching him. That's why I told! She said casually relaxing me a little. I nodded with a nervous smile.

You look super cute and stunning in this saree! She complimented me.

I felt little proud! Like who don't when some beautiful girl is praising us beautiful 🙈!

You too Pooja! You are indeed awesome! I said.

Hehe thanks! But trust me kanns! If I'm a boy, I'll surely will kidnap and marry you! She said making my cheeks pink.

Aww! Don't blush kanns! I can't control! Saying this, she pulled my cheeks.

I smiled shyly and casually looked at the door. He was standing there with Kathir seeing us without blinking.

Wait! He's wearing the same color shirt matching with my saree border.

My cheeks turned more red at the thought.

Kannavin's attire.

Thirya's attire.

Pooja's attire.

TO BE CONTINUED!

SORRY FOR THE LATE UPDATE GUYS! IT'S BECAUSE OF MY HEALTH PROBLEMS!
