'Arjun...en nelamai unakku puriyudha illaya??...Naa veetula irundhu veliya vandhuten..Innum konja neram naan anga irundhurundhenna...That Idiot would have married me...',Thara said sobbing.

She was talking with him in a public telephone booth.Everyone was looking at her weirdly.She was in a wedding attire.

'Enakku puriyudhu di,aana adhukaga nee inga vandhaa..ellam seri aayidum ah??How will you come here?..',he asked her.

'Ipo enna anga vara venaanu solriyaa?',she asked wiping her tears.

'Ipodhaiku venaanu dhan solren,naa shooting la iruken di,adhumattum illama inga namaku yaaraiyum theriyaadhu..theriyaadha ooruku nee vandha naan unna epdi paathupen?Iniku oru night engeyavadhu safe ah stay pannu..Naa iniku shoot mudinjadhum kelambi varen...',he consoled her.

'Arjun...enna theditu irukaanga..Im coming there..',he didn't let her complete.

'Thara...Naan solradhu unaku puriyudha..Naandhan varennu solrenla..Ipo Mattu safe ah engeyavadhu stay pannu...Naa shoot mudinjadhu kelambi vandharen!Innum oru shot dhan,Naa vandharen..',he said.

'Arjun...kadasiya kekkuren..Naa varava?Venaama?',she asked.

'Pch...Thara..'

'Just tell me Arjun.. should I come or not!..',she asked.

'Venaam Thara..Naan..',she stopped him.

'Fine,en veetla sonnanga..Naandhan avungala nambala..Enaku ellame purinjupochu Arjun..Nee aana ipdi pannuvennu naan nenaikave illa...Thank you for everything and I love you Arjun',she said controlling her tears.

'Enna pesura Thara?Yaaru enna sonnaa?',he asked.

'Enough of your acting Arjun!Bye',she said.

Naa solradha oru..',before he complete she hung up the call.

She wiped her tears,she felt like thousands of arrows piercing her heart.

She looked around and started running from there..

'Pomm pomm',she heard a horn sound and woke up..

'Maa,un stopping vandhuruchu..Yerangu',the bus conductor said.

She wiped her tears and nodded.She stood up from the seat and started walking towards her office.

She entered the office and finally she smiled at a person.

'Thalaivi...ulla andha sotta thalaiyan ungala koopdraan.',Sakthi said.

'Vandha odane va da..',she rolled her eyes and entered her MD's cabin.

'Good morning sir!',she greeted and he greeted back.

'Sir..Did you call me?',she asked politely.

'Yes,Miss.Vishwanathan!Namma company la last few weeks ahve konjam dull ah poitu iruku...So we have decided to fire few of the employees in our company who has less number of ratings from the customers... Few weeks ahve unga rating kammiya iruku Miss.Vishwanathan, customers are not happy with your designs..So we have decided to fire you along with 30 fashion designers in our company.. I'm sorryy..',he said which made Thara's anger reach its peak.

'Thank you sir',she removed her Id card and threw it on the dustbin.She walked away from his cabin.

'Thalaivi...Enaachu?',Sakthi asked.

'Dei en rating kammi ya irukaam da,adhunaala fire pantennu solraan...Sotta thalaiyan...Enaku theriyum edhukaga ipdi panraanu...

Andha pudhu ponnu Sheela ku vela kudukanum,aana already seats full ah iruku...Doubt vara koodadhunu 30 pera fire panni utrukaan...Such a womanizer...How can he be this much careless about other's life...',she said with a irritation.

'Ayayoo Thalaivi...ippo enna panradhu?',he asked.

'Vidu da...Job thedanum,nallavela month starting layo..ending layo fire panla...Rent pay panradhu kashtam aayirukum..Konjam serious ah job search pannanu...Seri adha vidu,avara paathu pesuniyaa?Rate kammi panrenu sonnaara?',she asked.

'Yenga thalaivi,avaru adhey rate laye nikkiraaru..Aana enaku oru vishayam purila..neenga yen adhey edam ey venumnu nenaikireenga??Why shall we try another places?',he asked her.

'Dei,I didn't know da,but I decided,my restaurant should come in that place!Enaku andha edam dhan venum..',she said firmly.

'Unga mudiva maatha mudiyum ah thalaivi..Aana namma kitta irukura money vechu advance mattum dhan kudukka mudiyum..adhuvum namma solra rate ku dhan..andha aalu solra rate ku adhuvum pathadhu..Ipo ungaluku vera velai poiduchu..',he huffed.

'Paathukalam da...Naa job thedanum,naaliku poi andha building owner ah meet panni pesi paakkuren...Ipo naa veetuku kelamburen da...Kaalangaathala tension pantaan idiot!',she said and left from there bidding bye to Sakthi.

She reached her house.It was an old appartment,her house was in the 3rd floor.

She opened the house and threw her bag on the couch.

The house contains a living room,a bedroom with attached washroom,a kitchen and a balcony.She was living there alone.

She took her shower and changed into pyjamas..

She made herself a strong black coffee and switched on the tv.

'ARJUN PRATHAP IS NOMINATED FOR NATIONAL AWARD!

HIS PERFORMANCE IN HIS ****MOVIE WAS EXTRAORDINARY AND EVERYONE WAS HOPING THAT HE WILL WIN' the words were rolling on every media news channel.

'Atleast ivanavadhu sandhosham ah irukaane',she thought and smiled weakly.

~~~

Here in Preethi's fashion world...

'I didn't like this',Arjun he said calmly.

'Sir,naanum manushi dhan...Naa inum evlo suits design panna mudiyum...It was 7th already..Ellathaiyu paathutu reject pante irukeenga?What are you thinking about me?Huh?',the designer woman shouted.

'Preethi..Konjam porumai', Rakshan said and she shook her head.

'Idho paarunga Rakshan,Indha Arjun ah vittaa enaku innum neraya celebrities irukaanga...Enaku ipdi kashtappatu work pannannu endha avasiyamum illa..If you like my designs stay,if you guys not,just leave from here',she fumed.

'Rakshan...Let's move!',Arjun left from there with his manager Rakshan.

The travel went quietly.

They reached Arjun's mansion,and they went in.

'Paithiyama da unaku?Enna dhan panra nee?',Rakshan shouted.

'Naa enna da panne?',Arjun asked casually.

'Dei,andha suit ellame nalladhana da irundhuchu,ipo yen sanda potutu vandha andha ponnukitta?',Rakshan asked.

'Enaku andha suits edhume pudikala...',Arjun replied.

'Unaku enna dhan da pudichuruku...?Edha ketaalum pudikala pudikala ngra?',Rakshan fumed in anger.

'Aama da enaku edhume pudikkala....Enna da iruku en vazhkai la enaku ini pudikiradhuku...En life la enaku pudichadhu oruthi dhan!

Adhu en Thara mattum dhan!Avale ipo enkooda illa...What if these suits?',he roared and broke the flower with his hand.His hand was bleeding and Rakshan panicked.He hissed in pain.

'Deii loosu..yen da ipdi panra',Rakshan rushed and took the first aid kid.

He cleaned his wound and applied medicine.He dressed his wound and looked at him.

'Ellame ennaala dhan da...Ava anniku anga varenu sonna apove naan avala vara sollirundha...enneram ava en kooda irundhurupaalla...',he said in guilt.

'Machaa..'

'Illa da...En mela dhan thappu...ippo ava enga irukaa?Enna aana?Yedhume therila...',Arjun said.

'Dei Thara un lover na,ava enaku thangachi da...Enaku kavalai irukaadha..aana reality idhaan machan...Purinjikoo..Ipdi nee unnaiya hurt pannikira naala edhuvu maara poradhilla...',Rakshan said and Arjun just nodded.

'Seri macha...National award event vera varudhu...Enaku mudinjaa oru personal designer ah appoint panna mudiyuma?',Arjun asked and Rakshan nodded.After few minutes Rakshan left from there..

Rakshan was very much worried about his friend's state.Arjun became lonely and aggressive after the incident.

When he was thinking about him,he received a call from Pugazh.

'Sollu da',Rakshan answered.

'Summa dhan da...Seri avan enna panraan?', Pugazh asked.

'Adha yen da kekkura?..',Rakshan explained what happened.

'Dei ivan yen da ipdiye irukaan?I dont know when will all these come to an end!',Pugazh said worriedly.

'Enakum onnum purila machaan..',Rakshan huffed.

'Seri da..Nee avana paathukoo..!',Pugazh said and Rakshan nodded.They spoke for few minutes and the call declined.

Arjun looked at Thara's photo hanging on the wall.

'Yenga di pona enna vittutu?Unna indha 6 varshathula engellam thedunen...Aana en kanla mattu nee padave illa...Naan enna thappu pannennu nee nenaikirennu enaku therila...aana indha punishment podhum di...Please enkittaye thirumba vandhuruu Thara',he was cried,his face was buried in his palms.

He wiped his tears after few minutes of crying.His eyes were blood shot red.He smiled weakly at her photo.

Will these two hearts meet again?
