'Anbu, you should have not done this to Raja. After all who is she to you?' Kingsley calmly sweet-talked to reclined Anbu, while massaging his legs.

Anbu took his arm which was resting on his forehead, covering his eyes from the bright late morning sun and shoots a glare at Kingsley.

'Illa Anbu... Raja is not someone who acts like that... we should ask both sides before acting la......' Kingsley tries in vain to make Anbu go find Raja himself. But Anbu's mind has lots of things running; several train of thoughts that are going to collide soon and become one big mess.

'Leave Y/N only with that DSP. Not with anyone else. Update me your every move.' With that, Anbu dismissed Kingsley, who walked away from the balcony, defeated.

Raja is missing since morning. The maid told Anbu that Raja left early morning in jeep. His wheareabouts are not known.

Anbu hates his own hands that made Raja's face bleed. But when the image of Raja grabbing Y/N and attacking her flashes in his mind, his hands are so ready to bash him again.

Anbu feels this feeling is wrong . 'What kind of drama I have indulged myself into?' he thinks now, but he fell deep into the well that he cannot go outside now. Its too late. His mind indulges in thoughts about Y/N.

Anbu's phone rings. Its his brother. He immediately accepts the call,

"Sollunga Na---"

"Dei Mutaal! (Idiot) Arivu iruka unaku ( Don't you have sense?) Do you think you are some hero or something? Perusa poraanam Kaadhala sethu vaika (Look at him go to join the lovers). Did you change your job, huh?"

Anbu's veins popped up from his neck and wrist hearing such cheap, insulting words from his brother. He is surprised that his brother who never ever changed his tone of speaking to him, raise his voice, as if he is talking to one of his servants.

"Anna this won't affect you, don't worry." Anbu tried to make his brother calm down but no, it only infuriated him more.

" Won't affect me, my foot! That Rajendran, who used to be scared of me, sent his men to warn me to get you to send his daughter. You made him to disrespect me, because of your women problem. Chi." His brother's barks stung Anbu more and more.

His brother continued,

"To add oil to the fire, you also kidnapped that new DSP's fiancee. If you wanted girls, don't you know the places to go? Kidnapping women for you and your friend----"

Anbu cuts the call, unable to hear anymore. He never thought about anything of his own, personal life. There's no women, relationships, friendships(other than his goons), or his own property in his life.

But there's many pending cases, with-held warrants that are re-written on his name instead of Ram's, an underground bunker as home where his brother has a castle.

Anbu never thought of comparing his life to his brother's until this phone call. It made him rethink his certain life choices.

Following his Anna's call, his Anni (wife of brother) calls him now,

Anni: Dei thambi(lil brother), don't take your brother's word to heart. He is very angry that enemy of his sent his men to warn him da...

Anni, who is the only mother figure in his life, takes it upon her to make Anbu feel better after Ram gave him heavy work, or send him to Jail in place of him.

She thinks feeding him good food and taking him out to shop with her daughter, who likes to be around Anbu is the bare minimum she can give to Anbu, for the protection that he is giving her family.

Anbu: I know Anni... my mistake too... tell your husband it will be all over today. Y/N will be home. Rajendran's daughter is in Rome. It is that DSP's headache hereafter.

Anni: oh so that beach-girl's name is Y/N? haha

Anbu was surprised his Anni knows this.

She chuckled and continued.

Anni: Your men told me everything during lunch.

Ahh, Anni, her classic way of getting the info needed. Cooking and calling to lunch. Whomever eats will spill out the truth in gratitude.

Anni: Dey, you have a murai ponnu (potential bride within family 💀), don't you forget that!

Anbu: Anni! I do not see Banu like that. Its weird to even hear, stop saying that.

Anni: Look at you! You never said anything when I suggest you marry my daughter, but you oppose now? Because of Y/N right?

Anbu: Iyo anni... I never cared because I thought you were playing.

Anni: Let's see who is playing. Come home fast, da. Take care.

She cut the call. Anbu hops Anni is still not serious about marriage to Banu.

His phone screen brightens with a notification.

Banu: Hey Mams (dear/uncle). Why no messages this week? I see you're busy 😏😏. Appa said you went to Bali with two girls💀💀😂😂😝. Is it worth it?

Anbu: Yep. Worth it so much I'm not coming back.

Banu: Then you won't marry me ah? 🥺🥺👉🏾👈🏾

Anbu: if you agree to be the second wife.

Banu: Well, if you are okay with being a second hubby to the DSP's wife, then why not !😂😂😂 Let's all share!!🤣

Anbu: You're weird.

Banu: Jokes aside, please send a pic of the beach girl 👀.

Anbu: No.

Banu: Pweaseeee. I wanna see the girl who made your virgin ass think about adding romance to your dry life 👀😏😋.

Anbu: I will whoop your ass once I come.

Banu: 😏😏 waiting.

Anbu: Oh gosh. I did not say it like--, nevermind. 😑

Banu: The picture, mama🥺

Anbu: okay.. wait a second..

Anbu send the picturesl he took on the beach, once upon a time.

There's no response from Banu for a minute.

Banu: Well, she is okay-ishhhh. She doesn't really look like your type though. Wonder why you have feelings for her. 🤔🤔

Anbu: I don't. She's to marry the DSP.

Banu: And you to me. 😉😉

Anbu: Okay bye. Have work.

Anbu and Banu's relationship, to the outer world, would look like a protective boyfriend and a princess girlfriend. His brother ordered him to never leave his daughter anywhere alone; basically a body guard. But Banu treats him as he is the only real friend she can make because of her father's tight survellience. Other girls are just so scared to come to their home so Anbu waits on the veranda while Banu hits up her friends' home.

Anbu have mutilated atleast ten men who tried to misbehave with Banu in clubs and in college.

All the girls in the college says Banu is damn lucky. And at point, between playfully flirting with her body guard mama and feeling his presence, she too, started to feel she is, indeed, damn lucky.

Anbu did not read between the lines as he had no idea women find a man doinh such jobs like him, lovable.

He went inside Y/N's room and saw that ring he repaired for her lie on the side lamp table.

"Guess she really does hates him?" Anbu thought, and a warm possibility of having a chance with her struck his mind all of sudden.

"What? Its not like Im begging for her. Engaged or not, I don't care."

Somewhere outside

?: Hey, where are ya'll going?

Kingsley stared at that hooded man. The man wears thick sunglasses and his shadow completely consums both Kingsley and Y/N.

'Move aside, coconut tree! What's it to you?' He tries to push the man but the man tossed him aside. Y/N dropped her luggage and went to lift Kingsley.

'Brother.. you okay?.... HEY YOU MANNERLESS PRICK..." Before she can dive down to more unpleasant swear words the man closed her mouth.

It's a sunny afternoon. Kingsley stopped near an eatery to have some coffee. The mysterious man had beaten up Kingsley and took them both forcefully in a jeep.

"yei, you have no idea whose man I am! You will regret!" Kingsley threatned the man who starts to drive.

"I am that man's bestfriend." He took off his hoodie and glasses.

"Raja! What the hell! I need to go back to India! Turn around the jeep!!!" Y/N shouted in his ears.

"Not today, Missie."

**********************

'She would be on her way to the DSP by now. God knows whether he will drop all the cases on Anbu and Ram like he promised or do us bad 2x because I got his fiancee. I am not a coward either. I will end his life if anything happens' Anbu told Yogi over phone.

'and then take his fiancee, yes Anbu! Now you are in right track!' his goons shouted from the other end. Yogi silenced them.

"dei ****! speaker la potruka naa inga enna kadhaya soldren (hey ****! Am i telling a story for you to put this on speaker?)" Anbu roared.

'Anbu, forget these fools, I think she was after you for some reason. She is a journalist for god's sake. I don't think she'll leave you that easily." Yogi warned with a stern tone.

"dei I packed her to India. She can never c--"

"Anbu!!! Anbu!!!"

Anbu: "Whatthe-"

Yogi: sonenla.. sani otnadhu othnadhu dhan.. bhatram Anbu (Told you so... once Bad omen sticks, it won't leave.. be careful Anbu)

Anbu cuts the call and rushes to the door to see Y/N and Kingsley's arms are grabbed and dragged by Raja.
