Part 45


The Poojari brought the the aarti tray. After touching it to his forehead, Armaan picked up the kumkum and put it on her hair parting. The Poojari then gave a strand of flowers, which he put in Riddhima's hair. He then blessed them saying they should happily together for many years.

Both stood with their eyes closed and palms joined, praying to Lord Muruga. Armaan thanked God for saving his wife's life and giving him a chance to redeem his mistakes. He also prayed for forgiveness, for the way he had treated this wonderful woman in the past and sought His blessings for giving her the greatest joy of her life ' a baby.

While Riddhima said in her mind, to the Lord, "I've always complained to you for having cheated me and depriving me of all joys in life. Today you have given me almost everything I asked for. I thank you for it and will make every effort to keep my athaan happy. I do not know what plans you have for our future, but if I've done any good deed in my life, bestow on me the boon of motherhood." They performed the pradakshina and sat on the side steps for a few minutes.

A: What did you pray for?

R: One shouldn't disclose one's wishes. Otherwise they won't be granted.

They just looked at each other and smiled. Both of them surely knew what the other had asked for. When he asked "Shall we leave?" she nodded and got up. Once again turning to have a look at the diety, they bowed their head and moved out.

Once out of the temple, Armaan took her to the side and pulled out his camera. He clicked a few snaps of her with the temple in the background. He wanted a photograph of both of them together. When he saw some other tourists coming out, he requested them to click their snap. He went and stood beside her, his arms tightly wound around her neck, his palms reaching below her chest. She looked up at him and smiled, wondering why he was getting so close. The other gentleman smartly clicked at that precise moment and captured that look on camera. They thanked him and left.

When they came back to the hotel, they were told that a cosmetic company was running an ad campaign in the hotel. They were giving the guests a makeover, free of cost. When they were asked if they'd like to register for the same, Riddhima shook her head, but Armaan put her name down. They were told to report to a particular room at 2 pm.

"I never use any cosmetics. I'm not going to let them plaster my face with all those creams and stuff." Riddhima grumbled as they moved to their room.

A: What's the harm in trying something new? We've nothing to lose. They aren't even charging us. And it's a renowned company, so the materials they use will be of good quality. Don't worry.

Riddhima wasn't happy with the arrangement. She kept requesting her athaan to cancel the appointment. But when she spoke to Suja, she also sided her appa, asking her to give it a try.

When Armaan went to drop her at the scheduled time, some of the company representatives requested Armaan also to have a makeover. "What makeover can you do for me?" he asked them surprised at their request. "You come in sir and see we'll make you look like the dashing tamil film hero, Surya" they challenged. Tit for tat thought Riddhima and said "Yes, yes take him along." So as she entered one room, he was taken to the adjacent one.

The girl seated Riddhima on the chair and introduced herself as Tanvi. Riddhima gave her a sweet smile and hesitatingly told her that she had never ever used any cosmetic till date. Tanvi assured her that she would be tested for allergy, before application of any product. She started with washing her hair. When she started trimming it Riddhima wasn't very happy. But Tanvi assured her that she wouldn't make it short, but was only giving it shape. "You have lovely hair maam," she complimented and Riddhima proudly told her that she oiled it regularly and washed it with shikakai powder.

The girl was very talkative, so time passed very pleasantly. When she started doing the facial make-up Riddhima kept insisting to keep it light. When having completed her job, Tanvi asked her to have a look in the mirror, Riddhima couldn't believe what she saw. She couldn't remember looking so beautiful ever before. Her hair which had been held left open was like the softest silk, courtesy the company's shampoo and conditioner. The foundation cream added to the glow of her face and her eyes lit up with the beautiful make-up. The light touch of lip gloss gave her lips a seductive look.

Tanvi had clicked a photo of her at the start and wanted to click one now. She requested Riddhima to remove the pin from her pallu and instead of pleating the pallu, leave it flowing, pinning only one edge. After clicking, when she showed her both the pictures, Riddhima couldn't believe the change. She thanked the girl profusely and was immediately lured to buy the products. Riddhima tried to get away saying she would have to ask her husband because she didn't even know how to use them.

The girl then asked her if Riddhima would permit her to show her 'before' and 'after' pictures to other visitors. Seeing Riddhima hesitate the girl explained to her that it would only be to convince them of how different they could look. Riddhima was still hesitant as she walked to the door. But when she opened it, what she saw there, left her dumbstruck.

She was seeing her athaan as he was before he left for the US, with his dark wavy hair falling over his forehead. Hearing the door open, he put down the magazine he was reading and stood up looking at her as dazedly as she was. She looked so very beautiful, with her hair flying about and her pallu flowing down. He saw a film heroine instead of the usual prim principal amma, who never had a hair out of place and always had her saree neatly pinned up.

As they both stood staring at each other, the company team stood watching them, as did the waiting visitors. Tanvi stepped up to them and asked Armaan "Sir, how does your wife look?" "Beautiful, awesome, mindblowing," adjectives kept flowing out of his mouth in quick succession. Riddhima immediately turned scarlet and looked down. But Tanvi wouldn't let her be.

T: Maam, now you tell us how sir looks.

Riddhima was flustered. She wasn't used to using such flowery language. So she simply said "He looks much younger." When the guys burst out laughing she looked at them wondering what was funny about that. They clarified saying "Sir also said the same thing. He said "You've made me look ten years younger." As she stared into her athaan's eyes, she seemed to become oblivious of everyone around and said "No, you look twenty years younger. You look as you did before you left for the US." He flashed his dimpled smile at her compliment.

"Can we have a picture of you both together?" Tanvi barged in. "Of course!" came Armaan's spontaneous reply. Moving closer to Riddhima, put his arms around her shoulder and handing his cell phone to Tanvi said, "Please click one with this also." Both of them had a beautiful smile adorning their face as Tanvi clicked.

They were then asked to put down their opinion in the visitor's book and both of them lavishly complimented the team. They also permitted them to show their pictures to other visitors. Finally Armaan asked Tanvi to pack up all the cosmetics, she had used on Riddhima, paying no heed to Riddhima's protest that she wasn't aware of how to use them.

As they moved from there thanking the whole team, Armaan said "We can't just go back to the room and waste their efforts. Let's call a taxi and go for some sightseeing." Not wanting to dampen his enthusiasm, Riddhima agreed. They hired a cab and asked him to drive them to the Silver Cascade waterfalls.

All through the ride Armaan kept Riddhima's hand tightly clasped in his. She too didn't object. When they reached there, they couldn't hear anything else but the sound of gushing water. They clicked photos of each other and the other tourists obliged by clicking photographs of them together. Riddhima felt so elated. She couldn't believe that her changed appearance could make so much difference to her own self. She felt younger, more vivacious, a changed person altogether.

Armaan also noticed the marked change in her. She seemed to have become more carefree. Not bothered about what people would think. She was wading in the water and splashing some on him from time to time, like a naughty child. They had to wait for sometime after coming out, to dry themselves a bit, before getting into the cab.

They were quite tired by the time they came back to their room, with all the walking and climbing up and down the rocks. Riddhima changed and decided lie down for a nap. Armaan sat with his laptop, busily uploading their photos. First and foremost he mailed it to Suja. Then called her up, asked her to take a look and call back.

Riddhima was woken up with the ringing of her cell. She happily picked up seeing it was from Suja. But what she didn't expect was for her to holler "Amma, what's up? Looks like you took my honeymoon advice very seriously. But you really look fantastic amma. Everyone's going to be asking me if you are my sister now."

R: Hold on Suja. What are you talking about? I'm sure your athaan has filled your ears with some rubbish and you believe him.

S: Appa hasn't told me anything. I'm talking only after seeing the photos.

R: What photos?

S: The ones you took at the water falls.

R: But how did you see them?

S: Amma, appa has uploaded them and sent me an e-mail.

That silenced Riddhima.

S: So what do you have to say now?

Riddhima didn't say anything, only chuckled.

S: Honestly amma, both of you look so wonderful. You look so good together. I've never seen you exuberant. Your eyes are gliterring like diamonds, with happiness. I can't thank appa enough for it. Amma make the utmost of this opportunity and enjoy as much as you can. Let it make up for all that you've missed all these years.

Then after talking about Suja's health, Priyam etc. Suja asked "Where's appa? Give him the phone." Riddhima saw that he was asleep on the sofa itself, with his laptop still switched on. Neither the ringing of the phone nor their talk had woken him up. He must also be tired she thought and told Suja, she'd ask him to call her later, as he was having a nap.

Having finished talking with Suja, she thought of switching on the TV, but then thought it might disturb her athaan. So she went and sat on the recliner in the balcony, switched on the music player in her mobile and selecting 'favourites' on the playlist, sat listening to old tamil film songs. She sat with her eyes closed, her mind replacing the hero and heroine in each song with herself and her athaan. The best part was she found each and every song so apt for them, as if they were written for them only.

She had no idea how long she sat like that but when she opened her eyes hearing her cell ring, it was pitch dark. She was surprised to see that it was her athaan calling. So she opening the sliding door she went in wondering where he had gone. But the minute she entered he came in front of her and bombared her with questions. "You were sitting in the balcony all along? You should have at least switched on the light na? I got worried not seeing you here because I knew you'd never go out alone. It's so late. Why didn't you wake me? Aren't you hungry? It's way past your dinner time." Then looking down at her arms which he was holding he said, "See how cold your arms are. Why didn't you take the shawl?"

She just stood before him with folded arms, a smile playing on her lips, waiting for him to finish. When he stopped seeing her calm posture, she affectionately touched his cheeks and said, "Sorry I got you so worried. You were napping so I didn't want to disturb you. I went out to the balcony not intending to stay so long. I was listening to my favourite old songs and didn't realize that it was so late."

Impulsively he took her in a rib crashing hug and she too wound her arms around his waist, resting her head on his shoulder.
