Meendum Avar 💜✨

~Eighty Five~

"Andha ponna custody la eduthurukkom... Neenga station varaikum vara mudiyuma..."

The inspector asked through the phone as Ashwin rose up from the dinning, "yaahh sure sir... I will be there in half an hour... Thank you..." He said before hanging up the call and his gaze faced her first...

"Yennaachu Ashwin..." She asked after chewing the idli and he released a sigh, "inspector thaan maa... andha ponna custody la eduthurukaangala, station varaikum vara sonaanga..." He said, and every one's attention was on him...

"Ohhh.. appo irunga naanum varen..." She said raising up but Ashwin stopped her, "illa illa... Venaam maa... Nee iru naa poitu vandhuren..." He said motioning her to sit down and stepped away from his chair...

"Irunga Naa varen..." Vinay said standing up but Ashwin denied, "illa paravala vinay... Naa poyikiren..." He said but Krishna Kumar came in between, "Ashwin... Indha kaiya vachitu neenga eppudi drive pannuveenga... Vinay kooda varattum..." He insisted and Ashwin couldn't deny him...

Ashwin and vinay moved out with the car key and a file he brought yesterday to show Krishna Kumar, while shivangi walked over to her father... "Appa..." She called out for him, and he turned to face her fidgeting with her fingers...

"Vaa sivu... Yenna vishayam..." Patting the seat beside him, he insisted her to come closer... "Sollu... Yenna vishayam..." He asked as she sat beside him on the swing placed in the balcony and she hesitated for a second, "illa... Unkitta onnu sollanum..."

"Sollu..." He insisted, turning to her completely and shivangi looked at him but everywhere... "Adhu... Vandhu... Ashwin... Ashwin pathi thaan pesanum..." She said seeking the whole of her courage but there is no change in his expression before he stated, "Ashwin pathi thaan pesa poranu nee pammi pammi vandhathula irundhey theriyuthu, nee yenna vishayam nu sollu..."

Hearing him, she clicked her tongue and her father raised his eyebrows at her, "unaku thaan ippudi thayangi thayangi pesurathu set aavala la... apro ethuku chumma try panra... sollu..." He said shrugging his shoulders and shivangi huffed out a breath...

"seri serii... Naa direct aaveyy sollren, enakku avara pudichiruku..." She said looking at him for any change in expression but he seems careless, "adhu thaan enakkey theriyumey... Adhuku naa ippo yenn pannanum..." The disinterest was evident in his tone and bewildered was an understatement for Shivangi's state...

"Paa sondha ponnu oru paiyana love panrenu sollren, nee yenndana adhuku naa yenn pannanum nu kekkura..." She asked in shock and her father shrugged, "eppudiyum nee indha arrange marriage ku laam seri pattu vra maattanu Enakku munaadiye theriyum, and konjam naala nee andha paiyana paakura vidhathula irundhey theriyum eppudiyum oru naal nee en munaadi ippudi vandhu nikkatha poranu..."

His answer made her flush but she didn't show it out, "paaa... Yenna nee... Sondha ponnu kitta pesura pecha ithu..." She rolled her eyes at him and he twisted his lips down, "yen... Appa kitta pesura maariya nee enta pesra..." He asked back and she averted her eyes from him...

"Aha... adha dha bha... Adha vidu...naa evlo serious aa oru vishayam soleetu irukken nee yennada naa ippudi careless aa pesura..." She pouted and he gave her a strange look, "ippo naa care panni mattum Yenna aaga poguthu, naa venaam nu sonna nee andha paiyana vitruviya..." He asked blandly and shivangi felt a sudden pang on her chest...

"Paa..." Her words chocked and he smirked, "mudiyaathula aprom yedhuku enkitta vandhu time waste panra ..." He said straight to her face and her expression started to change as if she was about to burst out in tears...

"Paa... Yenna paa... Ashwin unna yenna panaaru, edhuku avaru mela unaku ivlo kovam..." Her eyes started to well up and when he refused to answer the tears found its way down to her cheeks... "Avaru paavom paa... Naanaaa avaruku avlo pudikum... Nee yen avara paathaley moonjiya oorunu vaikura... Avaru paavom illaya... Avaru kitta unakku yenna prechana" Her voice choked in between and Krishna Kumar restricted himself from looking at her...
