'A friend in need is a friend indeed.'

Even though he asked her to cook, he ended up cooking the whole noodles as he didn't want her to stand for a long time. They returned to the dining hall with a piping hot cup of noodles.

She looked at him as he ate his noodles graciously.

Suhasini: Were you so busy today??

Adi: A little... And I didn't have lunch...

Suhasini: Apram edhuku ippo maggi sapdre????

Let me go and make something for you...

She stood up and he stopped her by holding her wrist.

Adi: Don't go.. Sit next to me... Idhu podhum...

Suhasini: Ipdi pannadhe Adi... Ippo dhaan unaku vayiru sari aayirukku..

Why are you hurting yourself again???

Please don't hurt yourself. I know this country needs you. But we are the ones living for you and relying on you forever.

She looked at him with her puppy eyes.

Adi: Don't look at me like that... come here..

He hugged her slowly.

Adi: I will never leave our family.. especially you...

After dinner, he sat down on the floor as he read something and she laid down on his lap.

Adi: Go and sleep peacefully in bed.

Suhasini: I missed you whole day. I don't want to stay away. Let's go to bed together..

Adi: Hmmmm....

Suhasini: You usually don't sit on floor often right??? When did you start doing this???

Adi: After the accident... We didn't know your whereabouts for sometime then.

Nee enna kashta padre nu enaku appo theriyadhu... That's when I started sleeping on floor.. adhu apdiye pazhagiruchi..

After Nasya was born, I know you were safe. Then I started using bed but still I preferred floor.

Bed seemed big without you...

She hugged him without words...

Adi: Jaan....

Suhasini: Konja nerathuku edhuvum solladhe, Adi... Please....

They stayed in that position for sometime.

Suhasini: I was initially planning to fight with you for leaving me alone for a whole day...

Nee ipdi pesuna naan enna pandradhu????

Now I feel that I should be the one asking sorry....

And I'm sorry for putting you through that, Adi... I would never leave you again...

She cried huge lump of tears. Adi was shocked for a moment. He removed her from himself and looked at her face.

Adi: Hasini, are you crying???

Suhasini: Enna???

Adi: Don't cry, Jaan...

Suhasini: Enaku theriyale.. azhaiya varudhu...

He understood her. She became extremely emotional after pregnancy.

Adi: Sari azhadhe.... I will not say any sobbing stories anymore...

Suhasini: Illa illa... Nee sollu.... Naan kekuren...

Adi: Apdiya??? Then, I love you...

She blushed instantly and he smiled at her..

Adi: We have been married for almost 6 years, Hasini...

Suhasini: but you rarely say I love you...

He smiled and lifted her.

Suhasini: Enga thookure???

Adi: Floor chill nu irukku... We are going to bed... You cannot sleep on floor... Vaa...

In bedroom, he tucked her properly in bed. He noticed her smiling.

Adi: What???

Suhasini: when did you become so great in tucking someone to bed???

Adi: I have always been good...

Suhasini: No you always used to....

She stopped her words in midway.

Adi: Finish it... Let me hear it...

Suhasini: You were good in getting into my sheets than tucking me in my sheets...

Adi: Naughty girl... Do you want me under sheets??? Adhe olunga sollirukalame...

Suhasini: Hey Adi... When did I say so???

Stay away... I'm still in my first trimester...

Adi: I was kidding... But don't tempt me Hasini...

She quickly nodded her head and turned away from him. He smiled and got into the bed.

Suhasini: Adi....

Adi: Hmmm....

Suhasini: Naama eppo Empress grandma ku solla porom???

Adi: Seekram... Once everything settles down...

She turned and looked at him.

Suhasini: What are you talking about???

Adi: I mean the deal with your father. If we inform palace, they will announce it to the world.

I will convince your father and then we can inform...

Suhasini: Ama le... Sari sari....

Adi: And you will stay in home from now on.... Un first trimester varaikum...

Suhasini: ofcourse.. I don't have anything to do in the company by the way... For some strange reason, Prerna is also working from home... Kannan and Rohit are handling things pretty well. I will just send my designs through email.

Adi: That sounds better.

He hid the real reason from her. He was scared to send her out. He was scared to keep her away from his eyes. He did not want to live those days again. He pulled her slowly into his arms and they fell asleep.

Adi visited his guesthouse early in the morning. He saw Latha in the living area. She smirked at him when she saw him entering the house.

Latha: Enna ennikum illama Prime Minister Inga vandhurikinga???

En paiyan enna Pannan???

Naan dhaan sonnen le... He will kill everyone of you... And he will take me away from you...

Adi laughed at her words. He looked like devil to her eyes when he laughed.

Latha: Edhuku sirikure???

Adi: Nee sonnadhu nijam dhaan un paiyan vandhutan.... Inga vandhutan..

Her heart soothed for a moment..

Adi: Ana Avan Inga irundhu uyiroda poga mattan...

What did you say??? Enga ellaraiyum kolluvana Avan??? Adhu naan irukka varaikum nadakkadhu...

Avan panna veandiyadhu ellam already pannitan... This is his paytime...

She saw the fury in his eyes...

Latha: Avane edhuvum panniradhe, Adi... I beg you...

Adi: Avane idhu varaikum edhuvum pannale... Inime dhaan panna poren.. paakuriya???

Nethu un paiyan en kitte vilayada paathan... Adhuku avanuku naan kaatanum le....

Latha: Enna panna pore???

Adi: Neeyum paaka dhaan pore.... Wait.....

----------

Rajeev: How did the budget go wrong????

Former FM: Adi intervened and corrected things...

Rajeev: you wastrel... Get lost...

Former finance minister left the hall.

Big guy: Sir... Sir....

Rajeev: What??? Why are you making noise in the morning itself??

Big guy: Look at this, Sir...

He handed him a file...

Rajeev: How did this happen??? How can someone buy all of these shares overnight???

Big guy: This person was buying our shares under different companies for four years and then he moved all those companies under his conglomerate.

Since they bought less number of shares each time, this news escaped our eyes...

Rajeev: Find out the identity of that person...

He owns 43% shares.... I own only 41% shares...

Big guy: You still have your uncle, Sir... He owns 6%...

Rajeev: I cannot believe my uncle... If he comes to know that I was the one who hurt his daughter... He will openly give his shares to that person and kill me...

Kandupidichiya????

He became impatient with every passing second..

Big guy: Yes sir....

Rajeev: which company????

Big guy: Credence group....

Rajeev started thinking...

Big guy: Proprietor's name is Arjun Kailashnath... People call him AK....

Rajeev fell on chair...

Big guy: Sir... Sir... What happened???

He handed glass of water to Rajeev who was clenching his jaws and fists.

Rajeev: Aaaaahhhhhhhh......

He screamed in high pitch....

-----------

Latha: What are you going to do???

Adi: One minute...

Adi attended the call.

Adi: You're here...

AK: I'm just here to sign papers, your highness...

Adi: Ulla vaa da....

After sometime, an handsome and tall guy in his early thirties entered the house. He was dressed in black suit.

AK: Ivanga dhaana adhu???

AK asked Adi pointed at Latha. Adi nodded his head..

AK: Your son thinks he is smart... But he isn't, old lady...

By the way, I'm Arjun Kailashnath. Our PM's acquaintance..

Adi: Dai....

Adi embraced him.

Adi: How are you doing???? How are Sindhuja and Abhimanyu??

AK: She is doing great.. He is becoming naughty these days. and Sindhuja is pregnant with our second child... 6 weeks...

Adi: Congratulations buddy...

AK: You always forget business when we meet...

Adi: and You always prove you are a pure businessman...

AK: I worked four years for this... I'm not wasting any minute... Pay without fail...

Eeshwar entered with a big smile.

Eeshwar hugged AK. He then apologised to both of them for being late.

Adi and AK signed the files followed by Eeshwar.

Adi: I paid you back... And thank you for these four years, buddy... You really did help me when I was down..

AK: I'm your friend... Naan pannale na yaar pannuva???

See this is why I say... Being a businessman is better than being a politician... Nee dhaan naadu naadu nu irukka....

In my country, all the old members are fighting for positions.. and here you are handling a country like Z in your thirties..

PM responded with a smile..

Adi: Come home... Suhasini will be happy to meet you...

AK: Next time for sure.. Prakash is waiting in car for me... And Sindhuja will look for me... Enga ponalum night vandhuru nu madam order..

Adi: Angayuma???

AK: Ingayuma???

They laughed.... Latha was irritated to see them laughing.

Eeshwar: Enna aunty??? Edhuvum puriyaleiya???

Latha: You guys think that you all can destroy my son... No you can never...

Eeshwar: Summa irukka mattinga polave... Irunga varen....

Brother... Is it the time to make that call???

Adi: Yes...

Eeshwar called a person and asked him to inform the news.

---------

Big guy: Sir.... Look at the news... That Arjun sold our shares to Crown Industries....

Rajeev hit the glass table....

Rajeev: It's Adi.... I guessed... Arjun should be Adi's friend....

Big guy: Sir, what are we going to do???

Rajeev: we cannot do anything.... we cannot do anything to Suhasini for time being...

Big guy: If I hurt Suhasini, he will topple my company...

If I hurt Suhasini, my uncle would never support me... Either way it is suicide for my business....

That bastard planned everything for years... I tried to sabotage his finance budget and he entered my company....

He is threatening me.... Face to face threaten pandran big guy.....

Big guy stood silently on the corner as he saw his boss going crazy...

------

Latha was shocked to see the news...

Latha: you bought shares in my son's company... You own more than him...

Adi: Yes....

Latha: But they are saying your brother's name...

Adi: See I'm Prime Minister after all... I cannot own business... So my brother will own it...

But I own this master stroke...

And un pullai ku theriyum idhu naan dhaan pannen nu....

Latha shrieked....

Adi: This is just a beginning....

You wished for your brother Nayak's fortune right????

Latha: Adiiii.... Please....

Adi laughed and came out of the house with Arjun and Eeshwar.
