Janaki's POV
I am staying in a private hostel, sharing the room with my cousin Vidhya. I have been waking up Vidhu from 6 AM. Now the time is already 7.30 AM. I already did my morning routine and yoga. But my sleepy head cousin is in her own dreamland, blushing in her sleep. I captured a picture of her blushing to use it later to tease her.
Do you know? Choosing your best friend who is also related to your family is a very risky choice in life. But I am very happy to choose her. She is trustworthy and she is the type of friend who knows what to tell me to make me feel better at any situation and support me to bring the best in me.
Even at the time of some disagreements between our parents, we didn't mind their scolding for going to each other's houses which are practically located in the same street.
I and Vidhu have planned to celebrate her parent's anniversary. For that, we are going with Prabhu mama to get necessary things. (Mama is commonly used to call uncle/cousin when the person is elder.) With these train of thoughts, I successfully finished my bath. I wore my black T-shirt and blue jeans pant.
Vidhu is nowhere in the room and the door is opened, as usual, she would have gone to get some coffee for us from hostel canteen. Even though we are not a big fan of our hostel food, we got adjusted to it now.
I applied some mascara, pink lipstick and my favourite Javadhu powder (Javadhu powder is produced from natural herbs. It gives an enchanting smell. A natural substitute for perfume)
As I guessed, Vidhu is still in half sleep, entering the room with two mugs in her hands. She gave one mug to me and leaned her head on my shoulder.
"Janu (Short form for Janaki) you should have woke me up little earlier you know."
"What can I do? My dear friend is in her dream world and doesn't want to return to reality"
"Shut up! I am not in the dream world" She tries to sound angry but failed at the end of her sentence and now she has a small smile on her face.
"Are you dreaming about Ajay?"
"Can you please shut your mouth?"
She is now blushing. Ajay is our senior. He is attending CA-Final classes now.
He is a very popular guy in our coaching centre. To put it in simple words he is a stylish and intelligent Tamil guy. She had a crush on him.
"Oh yes! I will but only after you explain this!"
I showed her the pic of her blushing in her sleep. The reaction in her face worth a million dollars. She is now shouting and then begging me to delete it.
This is the right time to make your friend do which she doesn't want to do!
"I will delete the photo only if you promise me to clean our room for this whole month."
She is glaring at me with fireballs and finally, she accepted it and went to take a bath.
I sat in my bed and checking whether we have missed out anything in the list we need to purchase today. I got interrupted by Vidhu's mobile.
Her mobile screen displayed 'ANNA' (Brother) which means the call is from Prabhu mama.
Janaki's POVI attended the call from Prabhu mama."Hello mama, How are you? Have you started? Please don't tell any reasons to cancel or postpone the plan. Because we have just 2 weeks for anniversary""I am very fine Janu! And I am not going to cancel or postpone the plan. I already started and on the way. I called Vidhu to tell that we can have breakfast together. No need to eat your hostel food today. And I very well remember the anniversary."I heard him let out the breath held to answer my list of questions."Okay, mama. Fine then. I am ready to go but your little princess is taking bath now. But we will be ready by 9 AM""Okay, Janu! Please don't make me wait longer in front of your hostel.""Haha. Don't pretend like Lord Sriram! You must be enjoying the view. Who knows you might be already here, looking at the girls. Am I right?""Janu! I have better taste. And I am not at all interested in Saturday sleepy faces. I am d
Prabhu's POVAfter speaking to my mama, we are now going to Express Avenue(mall). These girls are a big fan of Adventure films especially Marvel films. I like those movies but not a fan of them.They already booked tickets online for the movie 'Antman and the Wasp'. Thanks to mobile. We have more than 1 hour time for the movie.And these girls planned their menu in the car itself. I went to EA (Express Avenue) a few times before. But these girls are something else.Janu is a master in planning these kinds of things. She scheduled the timetable 'eat and enjoy till night'.As they planned, we went to the food court and ordered dominos pizza and garlic bread and beverages. We discussed the anniversary arrangements while eating. We exactly finished our lunch 10 mins before the movie. And we entered the theater on time. The movie is nice but they two watched the movie without even blinking eyes and also waited till the post credit scene which raised the
Janaki's POVWhen did Vidhu start to have secrets? What is she hiding from me?My emotional side of the brain tells me to confront her. But my Detective side tells me to observe her without her knowledge till I get full details.What shall I do? I decided to dig into the details without her knowledge. From tomorrow onwards 'Detective' Janu must be in full alerts. I silently smiled. My full suspicion is on that jerk, Ajay.Yes, I am calling him a jerk because he is soooooooo mean and arrogant. Once I tried to ask him a doubt in cost accounting as my friends suggested he is great at the subject. But that jerk ignored me with an irritating comment 'I am already busy this month girl! You may try me later. Better luck next time!' I felt annoyed as he winked at me before driving away.My most of my seniors were very nice and always clear our doubts. How dare he think me so cheap? And he called me 'Girl'. What does he think about me? How the hell can he j
Janaki's POVThis should not be happening. Oh my dear God! Why are you always having fun by putting me in embarrassing situations?"Mama! When.. did you.. come?"I gasped as his eyes filled with full of anger.He didn't reply to my question which is evident that he watched the whole thing. He took his mobile and called Vidhu. But it seems her number is busy. He tried again."Wait mama. I will get her"Without glancing back at him I ran to my room.The bomb is now ticking. I have to calm him down. I saw Vidhu speaking on the phone. She and that damn Ajay! Can't she see his brother's call on the second line?"Vidhuu"I shouted her name while entering our room. She almost dropped her phone and placed her hand on chest."Oh Janu, you scared me to the death"I am not in the mood to explain her anything."He came. We have to go"I took my bag and lock and glared at her.She quickly whispered
Prabhu's POVAfter the great dinner, we settled to watch TV. I noticed Janu went out to talk to her parents. Its been 30 minutes and she didn't return. She won't go anywhere without informing us. I want to check her. So without grabbing much attention of others, I walked towards the front gate.There she is, in deep thoughts leaned on the side of the front door facing the street. My mind reminded the morning incident so I decided to tiptoe near her so that I can pull a prank by shouting in her ear. It will be funny to watch her scared face and her reactions.I almost went near her but she suddenly turned and bumped into me. My hand automatically snaked her waist to stop her from falling. She didn't realise that I am holding her because she didn't open her eyes for a couple of minutes. She looks more gorgeous in this dim streetlight. She widened her eyes realising our closeness then she immediately pushed me and rushed inside.I stood there still. What the
Janaki's POVAs there is nothing interesting to do inside my house, we decided to sit at Thinnai. (It is open sit-out built using cement with the support of pillars to the top, usually constructed in front of the house used for resting.)We are watching some songs on YouTube and singing. Practically shouting along, not bothered about our neighbours. I heard my appa bike coming. I jumped from thinnai and stuffed my mobile into Prabhu mama's lap making them jumping a little by my sudden actions. I chuckled a little before running towards the gate and now I'm standing in the middle of the road waving at my parents and smiling at them.Prabhu mama and Akash are leaning at the gate smiling at my action. I ran to hug and kiss them as soon as my appa parked his bike. They laughed before returning my hug and kisses. My appa went to hug Prabhu mama and shook his hand with Akash then invited them both inside."Epdi irukinga mama? Iniku vyabaram epdi pochu?"
Nandhini's POV(Saturday)ARGH! HANGOVER!I shook my head trying to get rid of the worst headache and blinked my eyes a few times as I didn't remember how I ended up in this place. All I remembered is last night, I went to a pub with my friends. I drank 7 shots or maybe more.. then... Hmmm... I couldn't recall anything after that.I tried to get up from this soft and comfortable bed but I realized an arm snaked around my naked body. I tried to recognize the muscular guy lying in his birth state besides me but I couldn't. GREAT! I took a warm long shower and wore my clothes that were scattered all around the room. Suddenly the room door opened and another hot tall guy entered with a glass full of lemon juice."Hey hottie! You have already got ready? I thought you would like to spend some more time with us."Us? Never mind! He gave me the juice. His eyes were all over my body as I am wearing a short gown and revealing most of my long legs.
Prabhu's POV(Saturday - Morning)Akash is now settled with our place. He is having a good time with my family. Vidhu went to Janu's house as soon as she got up. She is very much attached to Banu athai. After having breakfast, Akash and I settled on the terrace as he showered me with some tips for my meeting with Nandhini.After a few minutes, we spotted Vidhu and Janu walking in the street. They were seriously discussing something. I thought they were coming here but they walked past our house. We decided to pull a prank on them. They examined the front of my house but not the terrace. So we climbed down cautiously and managed to reach behind them without a sound. We both shouted as loud as we can near their ears making them jump in the middle of the street.My sweet-brave women had a priceless expression. Vidhu screamed loudly and to avoid any public comments, I quickly walked them a few steps away. My sister started shouting at me for terrorizing them.
