Arjun’s PoV
I had already made arrangements for Anu to go to Salem where one of my acquaintances is practising as a doctor. We wanted everything to be lowkey and as subtle as possible so I avoided joining with her. I arranged a special transport for her from Chennai to Salem and dropped her.
“Thank you so much, Arjun.”
“Don’t mention it, Anu. Here, have this phone and use it to contact me at any time. I have saved my number in it. The doctor there will take care of you very well. All your necessities will be fulfilled there. If you need anything, ask them or me. Ok?”
“Sure, Arjun. About my request..?”
“I will surely make arrangements
Arjun’s PoVShe looked lovely in the lehenga I custom made for her. I couldn't hold myself back from touching her but did it anyway as the hall was full of people. As soon as we got in the car, I intertwined my fingers with hers and started driving towards Coonoor. Her nearness and her beauty was driving me nuts every passing second. She was talking non-stop about Danya and Akshitha and how they were going to be best friends. Of Course yes, Danya and Akshitha are just as talkative as Anika and they make the place lively wherever they are. Rishi and Yadav are cool guys too and since I am an introvert so far, I have had a borderline relationship with everybody and now I guess I have to be friends with them!It was about a two and half hour drive and we stopped twice on the road as she felt nauseous on the winding road. As soon as we reached, the helpers there broug
Anika’s PoVIt is my birthday tomorrow! I am waiting for my hubby to wish me happy birthday but it looks like all he is caring about now is to pack for our honeymoon tomorrow. I wonder whether he knows it is my birthday tomorrow or not. We are going to Coonoor tomorrow as I am in the first trimester of pregnancy and air travel is not advisable right now. Arjun talked to his relative Yadav Rishid who owns a resort in Coonoor for blocking a room for us. I remember Yadav Rishid and his wife Akshitha, they came to our home the next day of our wedding to congratulate us. He is now busy talking to his another relative Rishi to whom he has ordered a special outfit for me. He was the one that helped Arjun to choose all the clothes Arjun got for me.“Arjun…” I called him sitting on the bed.
Anika’s PoVThe house was in pindrop silence and no one was ready yet to take it in. I heard the sniffs of Dhanam Perima but she didn't dare to look Anand in the face. My dad gestured to my mom to go and talk to Dhanam perima. I think they need more time to sink in the information and understand their feelings over it. I am truly glad that Sivaprakasam Perippa stayed quiet instead of talking thick words that would hurt Anand out of overwhelming feelings. His silence is a good sign, he is thinking about it and I agree that this society has made up some rules that are ridiculous and he needs a huge courage to accept the truth against the society.As we parked the car, Anand got down from the other car that came towards us. He was waiting for our arrival. When we went in along with Anand, my mom, dad, Aunt, Priya and Rajesh were already in the house, talking to Peri
Anika’s PoVAll my anger flew away when I saw her in the hospital bed with the hospital patient uniform. She has lost so much weight and also lost her charm and beauty. Her eyes had dark circles around it. She was leaning back on the bed and was looking at the ceiling when I opened the door. It’s good that Arjun did not accompany me to see her, he cannot digest this sight. As she heard the door, she just moved her eyes to the door and her facial expression changed from nude to anger in just a matter of seconds.“Why are you here?” She asked me as soon as I entered the room.“I am here to see you. Isn’t it obvious?” I asked her back.“I hate to even see you. You made Arjun see me differently. How di
Anika’s PoVAfter a week,I was in constant touch with Sharanya to know the condition of Preethi. She was still in the hospital until yesterday and nobody tried to talk to her because the doctor adviced against bringing up the reason for her attempted suicide while she was still healing. Preethi chose not to talk to anybody also. Sharanya said that Praveen and his parents are still mad at Arjun but they dare talk about him in front of Preethi. She also said that it was very unlikely for Preethi to not ask about Arjun for a complete week.“They will come around when they know the truth. We are happy to wait and we are really happy that Preethi has recovered completely and is doing well.” I told Sharanya when I spoke to her two days back.
Anika’s PoV“Thank you, dad. I never knew you would be the invisible help I would get.” Arjun told his dad. Arjun and I went to uncle’s room to thank him for his timely help.“You are a grown man, Arjun. But you will always be my son no matter how big you get. I only wish for your happiness. I have enough trust in you to lead your life without my intervention but I also have that wisdom to see through you and read your heart. You are my son, dear boy and I can see what you were going through. I initially thought it was Anika’s fault but soon realized that she was in love with you. That is when I extended my support to her. I pointed out her mistakes and made her think out of the situation. I know you would come around as I saw your love towards Anika. I am happy you sorted things on a good note. So what are you going to do abou
