'My life has never been the same since I met you.'

Monica waited for him for a long time. He did not come out of his office. Nathan went into his office after sending off Suhasini.

Nathan: Sir... Madam kelambitanga...

Adi: yeah that's fine.. I will talk to her after reaching home.. Ippo enaku urgent ah oru conference irukku with Y country's President. Bring me the files submitted by external affairs minister this morning..

I was about to attend it after reaching home. But our appointment moved an hour earlier due to a small crisis. Don't disturb me for an hour and no calls..

Nathan: Sure sir.. Your files are here..

Nathan did not tell him the fact that Monica was waiting outside because of the conference..

------

An hour passed.... She still waited...

He came out after an hour...

Adi: Monica.. When did you come?? What are you doing here???

Monica: I came when your wife left... She did not even wait for you.. Unakaga illa naalum mathavanga irukkanga le.. Avangalkachi wait pannirukalam.. Unaku ivlo insulting ah pannitu pora.. Enaku pidikave illa... Enna pandradhu?? Avanga veetle ellam avlo dhaan solli tharuvanga..

Adi observed her expression...

Adi: She knows that I will come home at the end of the day.. So poiruppa... And idhule insulting ah Enna irukku???

Monica: nee idhukullaiye avalku ivlo support pandre....

She then teared up....

Adi: I was just stating the facts.. Don't cry..

Monica: Ava Enna ellam sonna theriyuma... Ava dhaan first lady ahm.. Princess ahm.. Naan unnai Paaka vara koodadhu nu ellam sonna...

Adi: Ava apdi ellam solla matta.. Nee thappa purinjutu iruppe.. Sari vaa.. I will drop you home...

She knew well if she insisted on complaining about Suhasini, then Adi would doubt her. So she did not continue her complaints.

When they both were getting into the car, he sat at the shotgun..

Monica: why don't you come and sit with me in the back??

Adi: I feel uncomfortable... You know right???

This strange disease of him irritated her to the core. If not for it, she would have already married him and became the first lady.

He dropped her in her house and went back. When he reached home, Suhasinu was sound asleep on the bed. So he did not wake her up.

------

Next day, He left for office earlier in the morning. He was busy with the united nations conference which was going to take place by the coming month. And as a Prime minister, his shoulders were always burdened with works.

She understood his work and got ready to go by herself to the engagement. She did not want to bring him as she felt her chithappa family did not deserve his presence. And also she wanted to deal with her problems on her own. Even though they were married, they were still two strangers under one roof.

She donned a beautiful silk saree with a paired necklace. She had styled her hair in a bun. She looked like a traditional queen...

She was chauffeured to the Hotel Luxury and everyone welcomed her when she got down from the car. Guna was so nice to her. Manohar's parents were also good to her who never really looked at her in the past. Manohar's parent especially invited media and every guests as they were going to become connected to the royal family in a way.. She looked gorgeous in that saree and everyone was calculating its price inside their minds.

Manohar saw her coming and he wanted to go and greet her.. But kala tucked his sleeves..

Kala: please don't leave me...

He looked at her begging eyes..

Manohar: I was just going to say hello.. Don't worry.. I will not go..

She then smiled at him..

------

Suhasini was brought to bride's room by Guna.

Lakshmi: Maharani enga veetuku viseshathuku vandhurukinga... Sandhosham..

Suhasini: nee thirundha mattiya chithi??

Guna: ma... Ippo avaluku Kalyanam aayiruchi.. Ava namma veetule kooda illa.. Innum Unaku Enna kovam??

Suhasini despised both of them. She had little amount of gratitude towards her chithappa. But when he decided to get her married to Muthu, she lost every ounce of respect she had on him. All his appeasing words were just to curry favor with her.

Lakshmi: naan poi kovichika mudiyuma??? Avanga yaaru... Maharani aache... Epdi maharani aananga nu ellarkum therinja Innum nalla irukkum..

Lekha: summa iru ma.. Look at there..

Manohar and Kala came inside the bride's room after addressing the guests.

Lakshmi: naan yean vaaye moodanum?? Thappu pannitu thaali kattikitta mattum sari aayiruma???

Manohar: summa irunga Atthai... Thappu ava mattum pannale...

Suhasini walked out of the room.

Manohar joined her from behind..

Manohar: Suhasini...

Suhasini: Enna???

Manohar: Sorry for earlier...

Suhasini: chithi Therinja kadhai dhaane.. I don't bother about her these days...

Manohar: naan kekanum nu irundhen.. You are not forced into this marriage right??

Suhasini: Puriyaleiye??

Manohar: Illa.. Prime minister kooda wedding... He is royal... rich...

She could see the bewilderment in his eyes.

Suhasini: I don't deserve Adi nu soldriya??

Manohar: Apdi illa... I just found it hard.. You had an one night stand with him.. Apram one week leiye Kalyanam.. Enna irundhalum we are commoners.. They are royals..

At that moment, she realized how well Adi treated her.. Even though he disliked her way of doing things. He never chided or despised her and never treated her like a poor girl. He respected her.

Suhasini: Manohar.. Enna irundhalum adhu engaloda personal.. I hope you don't talk about it anymore.. I know you are concerned about me.. I'm doing good and we do have some feelings for each other..

Yes she had feelings for him and it was gratitude for saving her from this pit.

Manohar: Sorry, If I had sounded little intruding.. Thideer nu ellam nadakkave enaku Onnum puriyale...

Suhasini: No problem.. Okay.. I will see you later.. You carry on with your party...

Manohar smiled at her and moved away.. Lakshmi walked towards her and started berating her.

Lakshmi: Unaku oruthan pathadha?? Un Akka purushanum veanuma??

Suhasini: nee romba pesure chithi... Varutha paduve...

Lakshmi: oruthane paduthu mayakkite.. Ippo innoruthane pesi mayakkuriya?? I know from the beginning.. Unaku enga maappillai mela oru kannu irundhuchi nu...

Lekha walked next to Suhasini and dropped her cold coffee on her 'unintentionally'... She was not able to digest the fact that Suhasini who always wear their hand-me-downs was now wearing an expensive saree.

Lekha: Sorry ka...

Suhasini's saree's was spoiled. Her saree was dripping wet from the coffee and she felt sudden chillness on her abdomen area as it was so cold. She glared at Lekha who was smiling.

Guna pulled lakshmi slightly..

Lakshmi: summa iru ya.. Iva en kannu munnadiye en ponnu vaazhkai eh kedukka paappa.. Naan summa irukkanuma???

Hey enga di poga paakure.. Nillu...

Guna: ava pinnadi paaru... Yaar varadhu nu??

She was shocked to find Adi there.. As the room was secluded from the stage, there were not many people present around them. Suhasini looked at their line of sight and noticed him. She was shocked to find him there..

Adi nodded his head at Guna. But he did not talk with any of them. He removed his coat and wrapped it around her.

Adi: what happened to your dress?? This is why I told you to wait.. Chumma 5 minutes vandhu attend panna veandiya function ku yean ivlo seekram vandhe??

She understood his intention and felt touched. This was the first time in her life that someone had stood for her.

Suhasini: yeah my bad.. I should have listened to you...

Sari vaanga kelambalam...

Manohar's parents came there when they learnt about prime minister's arrival..

M father: Your highness.. Please wait.. Full ah attend pannitu ponga...

Adi: My apologies.. My wife's dress is spoiled. And I don't want any one to see her in this state.. I hope you understand...

They then left swiftly and entered the elevator..

Suhasini: naama yean ippo mela porom?? Keezha pogama??

Adi: This is our hotel.. This is one of the hotels under our companies.. My brother is taking care of everything...

Suhasini: 5 star ah??

Adi: Namma group ku keezha irukka ella hotelsume 7 star dhaan...

Suhasini: ohhh... Wow... Appo country le irukka paadhi assets ungaldhu dhaan..

Adi: yeah.. Namma year ku avlo charity pandrom le.. Adhuku ellam sambadhikka veanoma??? Even Royals have to work..

Naan power le irukka en title mattum pathadhu.. Nammaloda indha business ellamum dhaan kaaranam...

Suhasini understood the difficulties of the position he held.. He never faltered from his goal. He was ruthless against his enemies and country's enemies. He was lovable and honest to the people of the country. People showered her so much love these days which was mainly due to him.

They soon reached a suite on the upper floor. She went inside the bedroom. It was a large suite with a living area and bedroom.

He soon called his assistant to bring him a dress for her measurements. He then entered the bedroom.

She removed her saree and now had a bathrobe on her which was too big for her. So it looked loose.. She kept on adjusting the sash on her bathrobe.

Adi: edhuku ippo ivlo adjust pandre?? Naan dhaan ellam already paathutene....

She turned away from him..

Gangster.. Gangster...

Suhasini: sari Sollu.. Why did you come today??

Adi: this is the first function you are attending from your side after marriage.. As your husband, I should come right???

She felt touched with his words.. He considered her even though they were bound by the contract marriage.

She then heard a knock..

Adi: wait here.. I'll get the door..

He opened the door and Manohar was waiting outside.

Manohar: your highness... Is suhasini fine??

Adi mv: indha amul baby ah avaluku pidichiruku...

Adi: Yeah she is fine...

Manohar: If you can permit, Naan paakalama avale???

Adi: Sorry you cannot.. She is undressed.

Manohar: okay..

Adi nodded his head and then he closed the doors on Manohar's face..

Suhasini: yaaru veliya??

Adi: yaaro paithyam...

Suhasini: hotel ulla paithyathe viduvangala??

Adi: nope... He just looks nice on top..

Suhasini: Ohhh....
