Recap: Vaishu and Mithun execute all their plan for the elections. Later Vaishu release a video about the blackmailing of the opposition party with Lavanya.
*****************
Reyansh woke up and saw Vaishu asleep with Ishu babies snuggled on her side. His lips curved looking at them. He quickly got ready and reached the kitchen waving his hands for everyone to leave. He quickly made breakfast for Vaishu and Ishu babies with a constant smile on his lips. Pouring the hot coffee in the tea pot he made bottles for Ishu babies and returned room carrying the tray in his hand.
Vaishu was awake and sitting leaning on the headboard. Ishu babies were sitting playing with their toys. They greeted each other and Reyansh passed the bottles to Ishu babies and informed Vaishu to fresh up.
He started playing with them until Vaishu came ready for the day dressed in another favourite saree of Reyansh. He poured the coffee in a cup and passed it to her which Vaishu too with a smile.
Reyansh: I made breakfast today for you and muffins. I spoke to doctor and he suggested only purees and liquid foods for three days because they are teething now. He also said gum massage will be helpful
Vaishu: hmmm. How do you feel Ansh ?
Reyansh: Good with you all around me as a rock support.
Ishaan: Appa…
Reyansh saw Ishaan crawling to him and Ishaan stood holding Reyansh’s finger.
Reyansh: Ishaan, come on son try to take a step. Appa will hold you and we will go for a walk now. Just few steps.
Reyansh bent and caught Ishaan under his armpit and Ishaan was walking slowly but in real it was Reyansh who was making him walk. Reyansh chuckled when Ishaan curled his legs after a few steps. He was smiling looking at his father who was nuzzling his nose Ishaan’s stomach.
When they returned to the couch Ishika was in Vaishu’s arms still playing with the bottle lazily.
Vaishu: She is playing with the bottle and milk is long forgotten. Lets go give them breakfast.
Reyansh carried Ishaan and they reached the dining where Mithun was waiting for them scrolling through the mobile.
Reyansh: Shall we watch news ? Just to know the election post poll survey.
Mithun: We don’t want you to get stressed for anything Rey so it is better you stay out of everything for some days.
Reyansh looked at Vaishu in the hope she will agree but she shook her head gesturing the maids to serve the breakfast. Reyansh gave up and didn’t push further again understanding her reasons.
Once Reyansh left the dining with Ishu babies Vaishu looked at Mithun who was grinning and started to dance making Vaishu laugh out loud.
Vaishu: Will you tell me the reason for your dance first ?
Mithun: Lavanya and that opposition chief were arrested early this morning. I gave the address of her location in Goa which helped them a lot. People have started burning his effigies and the post poll survey has confirmed that our efforts had worked out.
Vaishu: I should meet Lavanya after the election results. Plan for it.
Mithun: Kajal is flying back today and she wants to treat you for everything you did to help her father though we had selfish reasons in it. She is 100% sure of winning this election too.
Vaishu: Lets wait until the results are out.
Mithun: Finally I got some time to relax and I m going out for some time to relax. I will meet you in the evening also I will pick up Kajal from airport. Inform chef to prepare food for a dinner party tonight in the lawn.
Vaishu hummed and saw Mithun leaving whistling. She watched the news from Lakshman’s i pad yet there was no expression on her face.
She was calm as a still water and only she knew what was running in her mind. She felt exhausted physically and mentally. Though she had Reyansh, Ishu babies, Mithun and Asha around her all the time, she really missed the warmth of being cared and pampered especially by Reyansh. A gentle caress on her hair by him, a tight hug, a forehead kiss, a squeeze to her palms, a stroke on her back was all she needed from him but fate as decided really to be cruel with her. A lot was on her mind. Will everything turn out to be normal between them ? Will Reyansh get over his anxiety attacks ? Above all they are yet to have a open conversation about the past or should they just keep the promise and move on without bringing the night into discussion.
With all the thoughts clouded in her mind she dozed off with her head on the dining table. Looking at her sleeping all the staffs stopped their work not to cause any sound that might disturb her sleep. They may not be aware of what is happening between Vaishu and Reyansh but sure they do know Vaishu was going through a tough phase since the day they got to see the doctor arriving at the manor and the way Reyansh was being treated with utmost care by her and Mithun.
Reyansh who reached the dining with a fussy Ishaan saw Vaishu asleep on the table and she looked too exhausted. If it was any other day he would have carried her in his arms and felt her rubbing her cheeks against his chest but he was helpless and he scurried back to the room and sat on the couch wiping his tears away with his thumb.
Ishaan: Appa…
Ishaan turned too cranky and Reyansh knew it was due to the teething. He gently started massaging his gums which stopped his cries for some time but he badly wanted to divert his attention and right now the toys were not helping.
Reyansh: Ishu shall we go to pool and play with ball, dolphin.
Ishaan looked at his father who was caressing his hair.
Ishaan: Appa…baww..
Reyansh: You want ball ? Shall we wait for Ishi to wake up ?
Ishaan: Appaaaa bawwww baww… fheen
Reyansh: You want ball and dolphin ? We will go and play as long as you want. Your amma is very tired and lets not disturb her. Now be a good boy and lets play with blocks until Ishi wakes up.
They sat on the carpeted floor and Reyansh dumped the blocks from the box and they started spending time waiting for Ishi to wake up. Still all this while his mind was with his love who looked like the same when she entered the manor for the first time.
Once Ishika was awake he got them dressed and reached the pool after informing Asha to convey the same to Vaishu once she is awake.
Ishaan and Ishika were having an amazing time in the pool with Reyansh. An hour later Vaishu arrived with towels in her hand and sat on the sun lounge looking at them.
Vaishu: Ansh, get them out. You are in for a long time.
Reyansh: They have been fussy so I got them here to distract their mind. Now once we feed them lunch they will sleep well after playing here for so long.
Vaishu hummed and carried Ishu babies back to room. True to his words once they were fed with lunch they dozed off immediately in a deep slumber and Reyansh watched Vaishu too sleeping with them.
Reyansh Mv: I can’t let her get her stressed in the process of me healing from my own problems. I should do something to keep the smile on her face.
At a old age home Sugumaran and Leela were sleeping peacefully after lunch. They had been pleased with the way they were cared and felt relieved that finally they could live without any problem.
Sugumaran felt someone patting on his shoulder and saw it was the security of the old age home.
Sugumaran: Enna achu sir ? ( What happened sir ?)
Security: Wake up your wife and come with me to the office now.
Sugumaran: Office ? But tea will be given in the garden right ?
Security: This is special tea for you so make it quick.
Sugumaran smiled and woke up Leela. Together they reached the office and saw few policemen which made them gulp. Before he could speak anything one of the lady staff grabbed Leela’s hand and slapped her.
Lady staff: How dare you to steal the money from our office ?
Leela: I didn’t steal. I don’t even know what you are talking about.
Lady staff: We searched your bags and found the missing money in it. We gave you shelter but you dare to loot money from us ?
Lady staff showed the money and the bags of Leela which were on the floor. Leela pleaded with the manager of the old age to not believe anything but he gave furious glare at her.
Manager: You said your son died in an accident but we got to know that he is cheat and involved in child trafficking. We are genuinely helping people who are in need of help and not someone like you.
The manager informed the staff to call the police but Leela and Sugumaran pleaded to not get them arrested.
Manager: Take your things and get out of this place now or sure I will get you arrested.
Leela and Sugumaran picked their bags and walked out of the old age home. They kept walking aimlessly until a car stopped abruptly by their side making them in shriek in fear. Leela was cursing as usual but stopped when she saw the person once the glass slid down.
Mithun: You know something oldy ? Your mouth will get you to the grave one day for sure. So how is life going ? Looks like you are enjoying walking in the evening.
Leela: Shut up and get lost.
Mithun: Ofcourse my work is over for now so I will take my leave and see you once you get settled in the next place.
Sugumaran: You framed us and got us kicked out the old age home ?
Mithun: Why do you doubt my capabilities ? I m more than what you think. If you are not satisfied with what I did today may be next time I will plan something strong for you involving Rey. He is the best in planning.
He smirked and drove off leaving the duo look at each other with fear from Mithun’s words. He reached the airport and stood waiting for Kajal with his guards around him. He cared less for the media and stayed dumb to all their questions. On seeing Kajal walking out as usual with a shawl covering her face he chuckled and sauntered to her.
Kajal: You have come without even a mask. Media is covering us Mithun.
Mithun: I m not intended to hide anymore Kaju but you don’t have to reveal your face until you are ready. Lets go now.
He casually snaked his hand around her waist to get back to the car but stopped when Kajal wasn’t moving. He cocked his eyebrows questioning her act. Kajal removed her shawl and smiled at him snaking her hand to his back. They were welcomed with continuous clicks and questions but they ignored and got back to the car hand in hand and started their drive to Rey’s manor.
Kajal: You are right Mithun. We don’t have to worry about people who actually have nothing to do in their life other than stalking and throwing abusive words at us.
Mithun: Rey’s life is an example for me. We don’t know what happens and when, so its better we live the present in a way so that our future will be filled with love and happiness.
Kajal: How are they ?
Mithun: Lot of improvement and they are trying. Vaishu is exhausted after all that happened recently. It hurts to see them like this. May it was my evil eye they are suffering. I used to tease them a lot for being all lovey dovey in any place they feel like being and today they can’t even touch each other. I don’t know what to do. But trust me Vaishu is the strongest girl I have ever seen. She amazed me with her acts and the way she handled everything without letting Rey involved.
Kajal: She is. Dad wanted to meet her personally and thank her for everything she had done. Infact the party leader wants to meet Vaishu but I explained to dad that this not the right time and he understood. All the exit poll survey has confirmed our win this time too.
Mithun: Just a week and we shall celebrate. Also I m not sending you back anytime soon. Vaishu has lot of plans with you and I wanted you to stay by her. She needs someone very badly now.
Kajal hummed and patted his arms knowing how much he was worried for Reyansh and Vaishu and Mithun squeezed her hands knowing how much Vaishu meant for Kajal too.
Reyansh was in the room pacing when Vaishu arrived with coffee for him.
Vaishu: Ansh, Kajal has arrived in Chennai and on way to our home. God, I missed her a lot and I m sure she must have made lot of plans already for us to spend time together. Finally I can now tease Mithun bro and you know those two have revealed themselves before the media at the airport. There are lot of news trending about them now. We should be ready for their wedding soon. I will do everything she did to me when we got married. My time for revenge. Let me go check if the dinner is ready. Mithun bro wanted to have a dinner in the lawn today so get ready.
Vaishu saw Reyansh looking at her with mixed of emotions. She cocked her eyebrows questioning him but he shrugged smiling at her.
Reyansh: Unakku kovame varalaya Avi enmela ? (Are you not angry with me Avi ?)
Vaishu: Why should I be Ansh ?
Reyansh shook his head and Vaishu sat opposite to him with an assuring smile.
Vaishu: Ansh, don’t think of anything. Everything will change very soon. We will live our life happily setting example for everyone who look at us.
Seraatha kaadhalarkellaam serthu naam kaadhal seivoom
Kaadhal kondu vaanai alappom
Puthiya kamban thedi pidithu
Lovevaayanam ezhuthida seivom
Nilavil koodi kavithai padippom
Konjam konjam oodal kolvom
Nenjum nenjum mothiikkolvom
Sandai pottu inbam valarpom
Poovum poovum mothi kondaal
Thenai thaanae sinthi sitharum
Kaiyil alli kaadhal kudipom
Vaishu: Enna naa sonnadhu correct dhane Ansh ? ( Am I right Ansh ?)
Reyansh: You can never be wrong Avi and yes everything will change very soon like you said.
Vaishu nodded her head and was about to leave the room but his voice stopped her.
Reyansh: Will you go on a date with me Avi ? Our hot chocolate dates like we used to have back before we got married.
