It's been a month. Vijay's POP was removed by then. He was started on physiotherapy. Slowly he was regaining his arm's function.
In the meantime, Arun found a tutorial center and admitted Vijay there. He bought all the books required for him. Vijay started attending the classes regularly.
Initially he found his subjects very tough, since he lost touch with them long ago. He started studying sincerely. With the help of the classes, availability of Google search and with some tips from Arun, soon he got back his form.
*********
Days were passing by quickly then. Arun handed him, his 2 wheeler key. Vijay using it to attend the classes. Now He was teaching him 4 wheeler driving.
It was one beautiful Sunday. Sun started his journey to the West. The sky appeared so romantic with mixture of orange and blue hue. After finishing their driving class, Arun and Vijay entered the house. Vijay went straightaway to the washroom.
Whereas Arun headed towards the kitchen, where anitha was preparing some wheat dough for the dinner. Arun hugged her from behind, and instantly placed a cute kiss on nape of her neck. Anitha poked him in the stomach, by using her elbow, and struggled to get rid of him.
"I got angry with you"
"Why baby?"
"I was requesting you to teach me driving for a long time, you didn't turn up. See! Now You are teaching him", anitha showed her jealous on the dough.
Arun turned her towards him. Anitha was not looking at him. She was looking some where else. Arun tried hard to hide his smirk.
"Go now, I won't talk with you",
"Oh, dear! Look at me! Why u wanna learn driving? You got a permanent driver with excellent driving skills, standing before you.
Now she looked at him furiously.
"Always at your service mam"- Arun said with a bow...
Anitha started moving to the living area.
"You are so pretty in that furious look darling", Arun followed her, before she could escape, he caught hold of her and hugged her tightly.
"I can't be able to bear if anything happens to you in the form of an accident even at a small scale, that's why", mm... okay! next time you also join us", he whispered at her ear.
At the same time, Vijay came out of the washroom and happened to see this romantic scene. Immediately he turned and rushed inside his room. He was a bit embarrassed. His face became red with blush. It took some time to calm himself.
*********
Next day, it was 'Aadi amavaasai', a perishable day in South Indian culture. The house was filled with full of 'saambrani' smoke with sweet fragrance. Arun left to office already. Vijay was getting ready for the class.
When he got into the hall, anitha was coming out from the Pooja room with aarti plate. Vijay rooted to the spot on seeing her. She was utterly beautiful in that yellow ' kanjivaram' pattu saree with red jari border. Her face was glowing, due to the orange flame coming out of the lighted campher. She looked like goddess 'Mahalakshmi' in the picture frame.
He was speachless by her stunning appearance.
She offered him the ' viboothi- kumkum' , He was standstill.
" Vijay" she was calling his name for the 3rd time, still no response. She , herself placed the ' manjal- kumkum' on his forehead and went inside the Pooja room.
Vijay was in a state of trans, all that was happening, looked like a dream to him.
*****
" Anitha"
When the name was called out in the class, Vijay suddenly lifted his head, and looked at the girls side, puzzled.
" Tell me the answer" madam was asking.
He was taken aback, when he saw, Anitha standing there with the same 'glowing' face in the Divine look.
He shook his head and looked again.
Now, there appeared the ' 2nd' Anitha , the girl who belonged to that class was standing, and answering the question.
Since he was staring at her quiet a long time, after completing her answer, she looked at him and smiled.
Butterflies were rounding Vijay's heart, while he felt a tight knot in somewhere deep in his abdomen.
