***************

After a sleepless night Maya was sitting on the couch in her bedroom staring at the photo shared by the PI in which Aryan was carrying Sanju in a bridal style. After returning from Surendhar's home she locked herself in the room and didn't come out. She stayed without food and water and the dark circles under eyes were visible prominently.

Pugazh and her father were not in the house that night and they were not aware of these. By morning when Chandrasekar came to the house the maids informed him that Maya never came out from her room.

After lashing out at the maids for not informing him earlier about this he marched towards Maya's room. After a continuous knocks and pleadings from him finally she opened the door.

Immediately she hugged her father sobbing.

C: Maya What are you doing ? I told you that I would take care then why are you hurting yourself?

M: Dad, I don't want to live.

C: shut up Maya dont ever repeat it anymore. Don't you believe in your dad?

M: Look at these photos dad. Aryan is behaving a love sick puppy behind her. He is hurting me badly dad.

C: Maya listen to me. I have received all these photos already from my men. Aryan is very serious in her relationship.

M: Did you speak to Aryan at the party dad?

C: I started of taking our relationship to next level but he is smart. He guessed my proposal so he took lead and proposed for a business partnership and stopped further conversation. We need to take this a little slowly princess.

M: He will not accpet that easily atleast until she is around him. We need to clear her from his life for that.

C: Maya leave this to me and don't take any step of yourself to handle this. ok?

M: ok dad.

C: Now my princess fresh up and have food and a good sleep. Dad never wants to see you like this anymore.

M: Sorry dad, I won't repeat.

C: Good. Take care. I have my works waiting for me.

M: Carry on dad.

He kissed her daughter fondly and left to his study with a worried face. He was lost in his thoughts thinking about Aryan.

C Mv: I m sorry Aryan, after knowing about you and Sanjana I thought of convincing my Maya and make her understand but everytime I see her losing herself in love for you I couldn't bear to support you afterall I m a father and my Maya is my world. I m sorry Aryan I have no other options.

Sanju woke up first and saw Aryan sleeping with his head buried in her chest hugging her close to him. She ran her fingers through his messy hair and kissed his forehead. Sensing her kiss he rubbed his beard on chest making her to wiggle away from him because of the tingling sensation.

S: Aryan enna panra?

A: good morning sweetheart.

S: Good morning. Leave me, let me get ready.

A: hmm ok. Lets go home. I will drop you.

S: Are you going to office?

A: Yes, works are piling up so I will go today. You can join me from tomorrow.

S: hmm ok

She got up and went to the washroom when Aryan's mobile rang. He turned and saw the caller id. The call was from Chandrasekar and he answered it immediately.

A: Sir, Good morning. how are you?

C: good morning Aryan.

A: I m sorry, I could not stay back to give a send off from the party.

C: I understand young man.

A: Nice of you sir.

C: I called up to check if you still ok with our business partnership.

A: I would not mind sir. You can tell me on which business you wanted to us be partnered.

C: Yes, How about we tie up with cosmetics?

Aryan frowned rubbing his forehead.

A: Fine sir, Hope you don't mind if I take a week time to get the paper work done.

C: ofcourse I don't mind but I have 2 official clauses to be included in the paper and 1 personal clause or may be a condition.

A: And may I know those?

C: Will meet Aryan to speak those.

A: Sure. Let me know the date and venue.

C: Tomorrow 1 p.m for lunch at my home.

A: I will be there sir.

C: With your PA Aryan.

A: Sir....

C: I will see you Aryan. Have a nice day.

Chandrasekar hung the call without his reply.

Maya who was hearing this ran to him.

M: Dad, did Aryan accept to visit our home for lunch?

C: Yes Maya.

M: but Dad why did you invite her?

C: Maya listen, I m repeating just act wise and follow what I say. It is not that easy to get Aryan into our way. He may obey me and respect me but at the same time he is more than his father's attitude who was a ruthless monster when it comes to their loved ones. I cannot force him directly but I need to play with him.

M: I understand dad. Thank you so much.

C: Anything for my princess.

Aryan was sitting with tension running his fingers through his hair when Sanju came out of the washroom.

S: Aryan What happened?

A: Nothing love.

She sat infront of him and cupped his face.

S: why don't you share with me Aryan?

A: Chandrasekar sir called me

S: What did he say?

A: partnership accept panriya kettaru

S: What did you say?

A: I accepted it.

S: what else did he say?

A: He has three conditions for the partnership.

S: What are the conditions?

A: He has called to his home tomorrow to discuss those conditions.

S: Don't worry. Nee first po. Just speak with him and understand his conditions let us discuss about it later.

A: He wanted me to take you with me.

S: What?

A: He would have found about us.

S: What next then?

A: Paathukalam.

She hugged him to calm his racing mind.

S: Everythig will be fine. don't worry.

A: I love you sweetheart, I love you my love

S: I love you too. Get ready lets go home.

He pulled back from the hug and kissed her forehead.

By the time they got ready Ranjith arrived there and they drove back to Aryan Mansion.

A: Sanju I m not going office. I will be in study for an important work.

S: ok.

Sanju went to their room while Aryan and Ranjith went to the study to discuss further.

R: Maya tried her best to get details from Surendhar and Pradeep but they stood firm and sent her back.

A: What about her PI?

R: He is in our cell sir.

A: I guess Chandrasekar has dug out all the details. He has called me with Sanju to his home for lunch.

R: Can't we leave back Sanju?

A: No, this lunch meet is not for our partnership discussion. This is a complete plan for him to meet Sanju and impose his threat on her.

R: What if she is harmed?

A: No, he won't do that. Atleast for now. There is more way to go for that extreme before that we need to find a solution without any getting hurt to anyone but the possibilities are very less.

R: We can hold back Sanjana at home for sometime until these get settled.

A: He will have a checkpoint in every way to get her out so typically that will be difficult. Did you find out his secret cell?

R: No sir, I m still trying but no hint so far.

A: I have been with him for a long time but even I couldnot know it. Indeed he is still the same mastermind in business and taking revenges.

R: Can we take Pugazh's help?

A: Even he doesn't know. Keep trying but we need to know it for sure somehow.

R: Sure sir.

A: Call our lawyer tomorrow evening. Lets discuss the further details with him after meeting Chandrasekar.

R: Sure sir.

A: What about the civil work ?

R: We will start tomorrow sir.

A: good. check for every details I have said in it.

R: ok sir.

When Sanju returned to their room she called Pavi.

P: Yenna madam, office pakkam vara idea irukka?

S: Ayyo Pavi, konjam busy naala marunaal varuven

P: Apram enna matter?

S: We proposed Pavi.

P: oh my god oh my god.. Sanju i m so happy for you. Tell me who did it first

S: unga sir first pannaru next I did.

P: Finally it happened. So vera enna matter?

S: Vera onnum illa

P: Illaye nambura mathiri illaye

S: Vera onnum illa

P: Appo yen rendu perum office varala?

S: Andha Maya matter than problem. Her father has got a partnership proposal so he has invited us for lunch to his home tomorrow. Not sure what has he planned.

P: Aryan sir ellathayum semmaya handle pannuvaru. You don't worry.

S: I know. Seri I wanted to tell you so that you won't keep worrying.

P: Why would I worry. Infact I know you guys will end up together after seeing Aryan sir's PDA. He loves you so much Sanju.

S: I know.

P: Ippo sollu I know nu. What did you that day? Avlo amarkalam panna.

S: Seri vidu oru kovathula panniten

P: Anyway all the best and I m so happy for you.

S: Thank you. Seri I will see you in office.

P: ok bye.

Sanju came from the balcony and saw Aryan sitting on the couch lost in thoughts. she moved to him and sat on his lap and kissed his forehead.

S: Are you scared of losing me?

A: No

S: Then what are you thinking?

A: I thinking of anyway to get out of this without hurting anybody.

S: Aryan promise me that you will not take any stupid decision just for the sake of my life. Remember I won't accept or forgive you if you do anything.

A: I promise. You too promise me the same. Whatever happens we are not going to give up on us. You will follow all my words.

S: Yes boss its a promise.

He hugged her and kissed her hungrily. He groaned in her mouth as she tried to pull out of the kiss. After a passionate kiss they broke out for air panting heavily.

S: Yenda konja gap vittu kiss panna enna ippadi moochu vaanga vekkura.

A: I could not stop What do I do? You tempt me so much.

S: Seri I will go to garden. Birds pakkanum. Bala anna vera illa.

A: Don't worry our birds are happy and taken care.

S: I know just wanted to have a look on them.

A: Seri po.

Sanju left to the garden and saw Kousalya maa taking care of the birds.

K: Vaa Sanju ma

S: Bala anna eppo varuvaru maa?

K: One week la varuvaru nu Ranjith sonnaru da

S: Oh seri ma. Enna acchu sudden poitaru?

K: Avanga ammava paakka poi irukkaru da

S: seri ma. Neenga ponga naa food tharen birds ku.

K: Seri da.

Sanju was happily spending her time in the garden with the birds and Aryan was planning his plot to face Chandrasekar.
