10. Judgement Day

Anika's PoVIt's Friday today and I am too scared to open my eyes. I don't know when I fell asleep last night but even in my sleep, I dreamt of the worst things that would happen. Not even a flake of good flashed in my mind. I heard shuffling in the room that tells me everyone is wide awake. I am to explain myself and make them understand that LOVE is not a sin and I didn't do it deliberately to disrespect them in any means. I woke up and went straight to the restroom without facing anyone. To my surprise, Advay was awake and was having his morning tea. The home was inconveniently silent and everyone was so rigid and moody. "Good morning, pa!" I went to my dad after doing all my morning work including yoga. "This is not a good morning, Anu. You and I

11. The Grandparents

Arjun's PoVI am now driving to Tirupur to my grandparents home. My mom hails from Tirupur and my dad from Coimbatore. We now live in Chennai because of our work. Mom hates to be in Chennai for she dislikes the traffic and heat. But the most important thing she hates about Chennai is the language they use to talk. She often would say that people here are killing Thamizh. Though I was born in Tirupur, I have been in Chennai for all my life and I love the regional Thamizh in Coimbatore, Tirupur and Erode. Their Thamizh is like music to our ears. The way they address you, you would feel compassion from even a stranger. I love being there to enjoy the love of my grandma and grandpa. "Ma, When is the 'Kumbabishekam' exactly? Why is Priya not here?" I asked mom. "Kumbabishekam is on Sunday. Priya is not

12. The Hardest Phase

Anika's PoVAfter making up my mind just like mom said, I felt a lot better. I called up Nithu and told her about the change of plans. I am still reluctant to let her know what actually happened. But anyways I must tell her on Monday before I tell Arun to wait for me for a year. We got ready and went to the bus stand to go to Tirupur. It is 2hours travel from Coimbatore to Tirupur. Once boarded I found a window seat and sat comfortably there. Advay sat near me leaning on me to sleep. "Akka, did you tell Arun about your decision?" he asked me. "Not yet da. I have to tell him on Monday. It is not nice to tell this on the phone. He will come to college on Monday. I will explain to him then." I told him and myself that I can do this. "You know dad w

13. The Meeting

Arjun's PoVIt really hurt me where she dashed on me and I lost my cool. I turned to scold her but she was already on the ground and was apologizing to me. I tried to help her and that is when I noticed her, she was crying and panic evident in her face. I helped her stand and she again apologized to me and turned to run. I stopped her and asked what was bothering her. She was struggling to speak out but I made out that something is wrong with her father. She took me to her home and I saw my 'Mama' (father in law) there. That girl's dad was laying on the floor and with just a look at him I can say that he had a stroke and is now paralyzed. I waited no longer and took him in my arms and ran to my car. My Granny's home is in the next street and my mama and the girl and her mother came along. I drove the car as fast as I could and reached the nearest hospital in the neares

14. His Eyes

Anika's PoVI could not meet his eyes. I could not manage his presence around me. That feeling of acquaintance is something I could not shake off. He is the most charming and handsome man for sure. He is for sure a good man at heart because he never hesitated even a second to help us. He carried dad in his arms like he was no burden and literally ran. All along the drive to the hospital, I could not take my eyes off of him. I could see the genuine rush in his driving to save my dad. My rational mind ordered me to stop this nonsense at a time like this. It kept on reminding me that this mishap happened because of me. Dad is in this condition because of me. Even though one part of my mind strongly believes that my dad will be alright and will come back to me, the other part kept scaring me of the endless possibilities of horror. In the midst of all this chaos in my

15. Chasing Thoughts

Arjun's PoVRemember I have partnered with my friend in his concern? I am now going to Coimbatore to see him. There is a function and he wants me to attend it every year without fail. I agree to this because I like to see the laughs of young people there who don't even know what life holds for them in future. Their laughter is something I envy. It is more pure like a baby's laughter. "Arjun, welcome." My friend Shravan came to my car. Shravan and I studied in the same college and he is a son of a minister. That central minister is my dad's friend and that is how we were made friends. When he came to me looking for a financial partner in his new concern, I readily agreed to him because I like looking at the fresh faces. Though I don't visit here often, I never miss this time of the year to attend this fun

16. Him, Again?

Anika's PoVOur home is devastated is a very small word to describe our state now. My dad lost his job and as he was not working in a government office, he got very little benefits from his industry. It really never was supple to even cover his hospital expenses. Every time I saw my dad, the feeling of guilt that surged through my veins knew no bounds. It literally kills me. Though mom consoled me saying that it is not my fault and dad already had this condition, I know deep in my heart that this happened because of me. I called up Arun to let him know of my condition. But he already knew of it from Nithya but he decided not to call me. I was in a way, relieved that it won't be that hard for me to ask him to stay away from me. "Hi Anu, how are you doing?" he asked me like it's usual when I called him three days

17. Ouch!

Anika's PoVI came back home after a little help in cleaning up the auditorium. As I went early for the set up, HOD asked me to leave early. I felt relieved when he said I could go. The three hours on the stage was too overwhelming for me. It was so hard for me to not see him while giving him the certificate and medals. His cologne was so addicting and I hit my head hard twice for enjoying his nearness. He acted as if I was invisible to him. I don't know what I expect of him but his ignorance, anger and pity infuriates me like anything. Maybe I am overreacting for anything that comes out of him but I could not help it. I came home frying him in my thoughts. I saw a car in front of my home and in an instance I knew whose car it was. What is he doing in my home? Why is he here after shaming me in college? My anger knew no bounds and I rushed into my home.

18. A Good Job

Arjun's PoVThat audacity of this girl to talk to me like that. She even shoved my card back to me. She sure is going to pay for all that she did. But something tells me that she tries her best to avoid me. Why? She knows that what she did was wrong but she did it anyway. All she wants is to not see me again? Why? Even though I felt like teaching her a lesson for her behavior with me, I left it to rest when her mom gave her a tight slap. I cannot stop that joyous smile that erupted out of my mouth when she got that slap. Come on, she deserves that! "Ajju, What were you smiling at?" Praveen asked me. Yeah, we are at our lab and she was constantly pestering my mind. "Nothing. Just thought of something funny." I diverted him by talking about our research related things.

19. A NickName

Arjun's PoVI went home, had a hefty dinner with my mom and went to my floor. It's actually been a week since I came back from Coimbatore and I could still not forget her face. The way she closed her eyes when I tried looking at her cheek, it was like she went into trance when I touched her. I felt like she yearned for that touch but I also know that it was wrong. She is an arrogant girl with very rude behavior. It is still fresh in my mind. I know she is a little girl just out of college and possibly wouldn't know how this world will treat her if she goes on with her behavior. I almost feel pity for her, for she is going to suffer hard if she is not going to change her attitude. I could not take her out of my mind so I decided to take a swim to relax my disturbed mind. I got rid of my clothes and jumped in the pool. It is so relaxing to have a swim in this silence. I
