Author's POV

Niraimathi furrowed looking at the weird Mail Id.....

"Nothingtosay" and the subject is "Health"

it's just a " Hii..."

okay, it's not Instagram to receive a Hi from a random ID, her mind alarmed her about him which she ignored and kept the phone aside and indulged herself in his thoughts.....

It was not like she heard her mother speak about her love story....but today it felt different....each word of Kannu keeps on reminding Nirai about him....is it because she confessed that she loves him today? or her anticipation to receive a message from him regarding the Date? yeah, that's a date. she asked him to spend a whole day with her and sealed that deal too...Nirai surely didn't say that consciously she just blurted it out and now thinking about it brings Excitement, Anxiety and Delectation all together.

she had no idea where to take him if he finally let her know about the day he would be free. Her rational mind said "Reject this date and look after your own life"

and the lovely side said

"Look Nira you have no big issues in your life to deal with you are following pretty much the same routine you have nothing to worry about....oops okay ignore your paternal grandparents and the relations also Kannu started thinking about your marriage.....except that you have no big issues to deal with and don't you feel your life is too boring in short you don't have anything to grumble about. Your life badly needs spices see Nirai your parents have that much beautiful love story to say to you ...what do you have...your life has zero drama to share with your future kids...your kids surely going to be more inquisitive than you if by chance you say your boring story then think how would they react......so sad!!!"

"The lovely side does have a valid point" Nirai supported it.......her rational mind smirked and came up with its side of counter-argument....

"Oh madam let me remind you This Girl Niraimathi is a Librarian and this girl has read a hell lot of books and knows that many stories to narrate to her kids so keep that shitty argument with you, Nira don't listen to that girl you have a peaceful life and she is suggesting all ideas to throw a stone at it.....she unapologetically agrees that man is going to bring problems and chaos in your life this girl is just sugar coating it don't fall for it"

Nirai agreed with her rational mind too... of course who would voluntarily bring problems in their life surely not her that's why this woman is still single......even before the infatuation blooms Nirai will prepare for its funeral listening to her rational mind all the time...sad Liap guys ...

For the first time, she ignored her rational mind today and embraced her lovely side

"yeah sontha selavula sooniyam vachuka pora " her rational mind mocked and left leaving the dreaming Nira.....

(she is going to bring hell into her life at her own expense)

Nirai eventually slept on the sofa itself dreaming of many movie scenarios recreation by them...

On the other side, someone else is going crazy as his 10 emails went unanswered and this woman sleeping peacefully after spoiling his sleep.

Niraimathi's sleep was disturbed by a tap on her shoulder, she panicked and with that sudden motion, she fell from the sofa to the floor and screamed...

"Aaaaaahhh Aaammmaaaaaa"

Kannu panicked and sat beside her daughter who was now holding back and sat up

Kannu looked at Nirai with an apologetic face...she surely didn't expect that.......

"Ne sathama en pera kathiruntha kuda ivlo shock agiruka matein kannu.....En? ethuku? ipadi kalaila katha vaikure.."

(if you woke me up by screaming my name I wouldn't have been shocked this much......Why? why are you making me scream in pain morning itself )

Nirai grumbled and clearing her eyes she looked at the wall clock only to gasp.....she looked at Kannu and the clock back to back ...

Kannu smiled sheepishly holding her ears....Nirai Glared at her mother.

"Really Kannu..... it's not even 6 am and you are waking me up what Tsunami came this early huh..."

she asked surely annoyed in the morning itself...Kannu blinked her eyes innocently and tried to put the answer in words but didn't know how to say it........... But Nirai knows her mother well and her eyes widen when it hits her...

"That's too much Kannu.... too too much.... "

"En chello laa.."

"Ila"

("My chello right"

"no ")

"We are going there next month, not tomorrow.......and you are scared of your mamiyar keep it with you don't pass it to me....That Old lady can't intimidate me......I am not going to draw Kollam from today itself to be in practice and do the same in our Village.....no not possible....go and sleep for the next one hour and today is my turn to cook I will wake you up now leave me "

Nirai spatted and stood up.....Kannu also stood up with her and held her daughter's hand and pouted at her...

"No, I am not falling for that cute face of you....no means no kannu.....its early morning and it's cold outside "

"Please chello.....Your paati won't scold you don't even raise her voice in front of you because she loves you and she would be happy if you draw Kollam this time visit and it our village festival and Trust me if you do it once there your patti will trumpet that till next year festival....she likes you so much you can do this much at least right.....and I know you learned Kollam by the help of your Appa just to make her happy the next festival by drawing it........unfortunately we didn't get a chance to go there again as a family........but this time please do it for her chello....you do remember right when you me and appa goes to village fest every year he would help me and his mother to draw big kolams and you won't even come out as your Appa don't want to spoil your sleep and you would complain later and fight with him for not waking you up.......Like us, your Patti would also miss those moments with her son right......if you do this time she would be delighted "

Kannu explained and yeah she felt emotional too....to bring her out of remembering the loss Nirai agreed...

"Sari sari Kolam podrein ...monjiya apdi vaikatha pakka sagikala...and nee ulaiye iru veliya paniya iruku naa kolam potutu varein nee nala suriyan vanthathum veliya vanthu pathutu review sollu..sariya.."

( okay okay... Don't keep your face like that... It's ugly... I am going out to draw kollam.... You don't come outside it's cold and you come after sun fully raised and give your review later... Understood)

Nirai said childing her mother....kannu smiled and pinched Nirai's cheeks....Nirai twisted her lips at her and turned towards the door with a smile...Kannu looked at her daughter with a happy smile and moved to the kitchen to make coffee for her daughter...

Nirai came out pandiculating her arms to get rid of sleepiness and yawned moving toward the tap, opening the tap she splashed water on her face and washed her mouth, then fetched water in a bucked picked up a jug and moved towards the gate and opened it without looking up she splashed the jug full of water on the road along with over one person standing Infront of her.....

she furrowed seeing feet and raised her head only to gasp like a fish seeing him wiping the water from his face.....she smiled sheepishly and blinked her eyes innocently ....he was glaring at her folding his arms ...

"Sorry collector sir........I didn't see you standing there... hehe.."

"I wouldn't have standing here if you had seen my 10 emails and replied at least once"

He said.....she thought for a second and asked him...

"In any chance that Nothingtosay@gmail.com was your mail ID"

he nodded his head .....she tried her best to control the laughter trying to break out from her mouth by biting her inner cheeks......composing herself she asked him..

"Why the hell do you have such a weird mail ID....your name is Maaran right.....How can you expect me to think that my district collector has such an email ID and why did you send just a Hi.....and nothing else what do you want me to get out of that "Hii..."

she finger coated that Hi

"Really you could have got it if you waited and read the second mail......Sent mail can't undo.....that's why I sent you a detailed mail after that but you didn't reply.......I was anxious...I thought you pranked me and gave me the wrong mail ID and I kept on thinking of every other possibility and ended up losing my sanity along with my sleep so I had enough and came here directly to see you and ask "

he shouted at her back....she didn't know why she was finding this irritated man cute right now......she was just looking at him and he was agitated....he was about to speak further that's when madam realized they were at the street and her neighbourhood aunties nope spy cameras would come out soon......

without intimation she pulled him inside the gate and locked it ...he didn't expect that ...she jumped multiple times to see if any auties were in sight.....

and yeah she was standing way too close to him and her jumping surely tested his sanity to its highest level. He fisted his hands tightly not to do anything to get into her bad books and closed his eyes to calm him.

she let out a relieved sigh when she found none...then looked at the poor man in front of her...and remembered what she had done a moment before... Her face flushed....she face palmed herself.......

coming out of her embarrassment she looked at Maaran who still hadn't opened his eyes and his fist loosened...

she took a deep breath and patted his shoulder.

"Maaran..."

hearing her voice he opened his eyes and saw her flushed face and groaned...

"I.....ahmm...ah...I....Sorry....that.....I.mean....I..."

she stammered struggling to form words...he chuckled,.,

"Thanks for that.....and yeah it's okay......You don't have to read those emails now.....next Sunday I am free and I am willing to spend that whole Day with you as per the Deal.....If you are also free then mail me back after thinking.....hmm that's it and I am leaving"

he said with a straight face....with a small struggling smile...

"oh...ohkaay..."

she said ...he nodded his head and turned towards the gate to open it...she took a deep breath...but her breath hitched again when he came back and leaned towards her...

she felt Goosebumps when his breath caressed her nape....she gulped the lump ...

"Will you dress like this after our marriage too... "

he asked that made her furrow....he moved back and smirked at her and moved his eyes from top to bottom once again before moving out shouting

"Happy morning Indeed"

she was still confused ...Nirai moved inside her house thinking about his words and what he meant....she entered her room before getting inside the bathroom she stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself....she was wearing a loose T-shirt and a night pant...

It's normal nothing special about it...she said to herself and touched her chest...her eyes bulged out when it hit her.....she didn't wear anything inside that T-shirt.........
