 “After much thinking, I have chosen Aathiyan for my place. He’s the right person, what do you say?” Raja asked his wife.She took a moment to answer, “It’s your choice, you know better than me,” she answered. “But still you are their mother, you might have an opinion,”“What’s there for me to tell. I can’t choose one of our sons. I will never do that,” she says, “Ever since I gave birth to my sons, I was afraid to meet this moment where I need to choose one. I cannot do that."“I won’t compel you. I had the same thoughts when I was asked to choose one of them and this decision was taken by the royal ministers and people in the court who have watched them grow up.”“I understand, Aathiyan is our first son, I am so proud to say that I am his mother

“Taste this,” Sumitra gave a piece of raw mango. She took a bite, the taste of sourness shivered her. “It’s too sour,” she said. “Yes, that’s why I like it,”“Do you really want to eat this?”“Yeah, I want to,” she took two more bites and that made Kayanangai squint her eyes.“How could you eat that?”“If you get pregnant, you will understand,” Sumitra said. “Where did you get these mangoes from?”“I don’t know; brother came with a basket when I told him that I want to eat mangoes.”“He’s such a sweet brother,” Kayanangai smiles and thought, He's not just a sweet brother but a sweet husband too.“Yes. He is,” Sumitra nodded.“He does whatever I ask, after my parents he has a tremendous love on me,”“Don’t mistake me for asking

Rumors started spreading about Mathinila’s alleged pregnancy and it went to the queen’s ears too; thanks to her morning sickness. Rani asked the sisters to come and see her in her chamber to inspect this matter without any delay. Anxiously they both went there, Mathinila didn’t utter a word and Kayanangai was hesitant to start a conversation. “Tell me what’s the truth? Are you pregnant?” she asks.“Yes,” she shook her head slightly without hiding further. “Why you didn’t tell me sooner?” she asks. “I was afraid and ashamed,”“Why you need to be ashamed, my dear. There nothing wrong with this,” she assured holding her hand.Mathinila starts to cry. She thought she will be judged but the opposite is happening here.“You gave me the best news. I can’t wait to see my grandchild,” he said.“I will ask the maid to look after

“He’s a good person. He treats me better and he’s kind.”“I told you and I am so happy for you sister,” Kumaran says hearing Kayanangai’s praise on her husband.“Why our sister didn’t come to see us?”“She will come and meet you both soon,” she answers. Previously, she thought she needs to tell these things to her brother but she doesn’t want to share anything about her sister which will result in problems. Like Aathiyan advised she decided to stay silent in their matter.“Is she talks with you normally?” he asks.“Yes,” she nods but only she knows how much her relationship with her sister has ruined in the past month. In the future, it’s going to be even worse and she feels it now itself.“Sister?”“Hmm?”“No matter what, I will always stand by your side, okay,” he said. “I k

Standing by the river banks, Aathiyan watched the astonishing scenery ahead of him. But his thoughts were all about tomorrow. It’s going to be one of the important days of life. He doesn’t know whether he should feel blessed or afflicted because of these circumstances. He couldn’t put his mind at ease. He’s worried more than he was before. “Aathiya,” Narenthiran’s voice snapped him from his thoughts. “We should go, everyone must be looking for you,” he said. Aathiyan nods. He climbed on his horse, and they both rode slowly without sharing a word. “What are you thinking, I hope you are not afraid?” Narenthiran asks. “I am not, I am just worried,” Aathiyan answered. “Just worried? You look like you absolutely hate this,” “Yeah, that’s partly true. You know how much I am compelled to take this decision when my father is still alive. It doesn’t feel right,” Aathiyan said. “It’s time to stop this confusion. Tomorrow you won’

Slowly Kayanangai is coming out of this dreadful pain in her muscles and she opened her eyes to see Aathiyan sitting before her. “Finally you woke up,” he said and his face was stern lacking the concern for her. He has been watching her for some time. Her eyes instantly welled in tears, “I am sorry. I am not well when I woke up,” she said. “You are not well? So you came late and left without even seeing me?” “No, I couldn’t stand. I felt giddy,” she reasoned. He doesn’t look like he’s convinced. “I have asked the healer to come and see you,” he said and got up. “Wait, where are you going?” she asks. “Where do you think? I have many things to do,” Aathiyan said without looking at her and walked out. The palace physician came and saw her. “You are having symptoms for a flu but it’s strange that you don’t have a fever,” she said. “I don’t know. My head is still throbbing and I couldn’t get up in the morning,” Kayan

“You are going to be happy. I will do anything for that,” Kayanangai whispered to her child growing inside her. “If you ask me whether I am happy now, I don’t know, my child. But when I am going to hold you, I know I am going to be so happy,” she smiles saying that. The sky looks marvelous and she’s feeling lonely than ever before. Heaving a sigh, Kayanangai smiled watching it. Everything she ever faced in her life has only lasted for some days or months or years: the way she was happy with her family, the way people treated her nicely here, the way her sister was affectionate, and then finally Aathiyan’s love. It fading and she can feel it. Ever since the day he becomes the King, she realized that he’s getting far from her. They were not like how they used to be. He showed his anger a couple of times when she asked him where he was or why he didn’t come earlier. It just irritates him so she stopped asking those questions and stay silent because it’s

28. "Come soon or we will miss this chance," Sumitra said while walking towards Rani's place. Kayanangai followed her slowly as she's not at all interested to go there. Rani has summoned a sorceress, who's famous in the town nowadays. They heard her specialty was predicting the future accurately so Rani wanted to know what her son's future will be and about her husband's health. Ever since Aathiyan became the Raja, his father's health kept deteriorating.    Kayanangai couldn't understand this. How can one predict a future just by looking at the person.  No one is going to live an eternal life, so these future predictions seem insignificant for Kayanangai. But Sumitra was so keen to know about her future, especially her child's gender so Kayanangai accompanied her to see the mage half-hearte
