Sunday evening went in bed... she made poha at around midnight and they ended up watching Gravity until 3, and went to bed soon after
II slept on the couch... when he went to pick her up she threw a fit and curled right back up on the backrest
"You dont let me sleep" she whined
"I can come pick you up if I want to u know" he sniggered
"Po da!!" she dismissed
He lay on the couch by her until she fell asleep and brought her back to the bed at 6 ish Monday morning,
to reward himself for the tough labor he woke her to make love
"I KNEW IT with you nothing's free!!" she groaned... arching for him... her eyes still closed
"U are the least philanthropical of all the men I know" she declared as he pushed
"Do u know all of them?" he asked hot and husky in her ear
He was in the shower at 8 ish when she woke... Akka called to ask when exactly she was returning, she didnt remember promised to check with Rakshasan and call back
She brushed her teeth and sat down with her "as close to filter coffee" in taste espresso on the kitchen table and made a list of what all she needed to buy
She counted the cash, between the cab to the Doc visit, the grocery and meds that night and the being lost on Monday a week ago, she was down to 118 EU
The tees she saw wandering around the strip mall by the butcher's on Saturday, all of it tanged between 15-20EU each
She could get 6 tees and a few key chains?
Harris Jayaraj Hits played on his ipad FM "Iyengar veettu azhage"...
R&B had a Breville Oracle Espresso maker, they ran for over $2,500 a piece... Appa and Amma both loved coffee
It took II a a day to figure out how to make coffee in these, she drained atleast 6 cups
Looking at him sheepishly, he gave her a look of"
"If u are looking for something to fight about we can find other topics, 6 cups of wasted coffee wont cut it II"
"U can say learn it first or something sharp like that" she muttered apologetically
"So u can stop using it completely?" he challeneged
She blushed... "ummm no"
"Liar!" he said
A simple one costed between $150-200, she could go over to D II on Sunday and make coffee for all, she smiled out the window unaware she was being watched
The contents of her purse spread out on the kitchen table, her hair in a oily knot, she wore, a red kurta and a cream chudidar
Like she was going to take one of those oil baths, her body glistened... a plastic sesame oil bottle sat on the counter, a bowl of heated oil sat on the kitchen table
She dabbed some and rubbed on her feet as she thought... deeply
"OK 5 tees and 10 key chains?"
"A board game, 3 tees and 10 key chains"
She wrote down a mathematical model for it
And turned the Post it pad upside down
She walked over to the espresso machine and looked at its every attachment, carressed every inch of it fondly
and talked to herself... "Appa this is how you make it seriya"
She showed him how to grind coffee beans, how to turn on the water supply pour milk
She quickly ran to the gas range pulled a towel and draped it on her shoulder pretending to be a barista
And whipped up a steaming cup
Added 2.5 spoons of sugar giggling
"Idu enakku pa" she raised a toast to her Dad and sipped, licked the foam...
"Rakshasan will say its too sweet or too foamy but its good for us all" she declared wandered over to the balcony to watch the pigeons
Her things lay on the table he walked a couple steps into the kitchen, and saw what she had laid out
It was complex, goofy and random like her... feminine
A change purse with treble clef pattern, a pair of pink earbuds, a bunch of Indian and EU change, some Grace moisturizer/lotion,
feminine hygene products, his favorite brand of gum (Spearmint, he had those lying around everywhere in Malcha Marg,
they had fought over the last piece the day after the wedding
he had let her have it, and gotten sex in exchange),
her ipod, MP3 player... each with a set of earphones wrapped
Some Rs.500 and Rs 1,000 bills
What looked to him like 100 EU, MAC lipstick and Burt's Bees chapstick, and some bindis... a
key chain/pendant pic with Shravu and her feasting on ice cream sundae.
In a ziploc bag..A pink 2.5* 2.5 inch post it with a twist on the I.O.U,
it said "II OWES YOU" a smiley face..A face of what she thought was a Rakshasan with a Rs.5 coin pinned to the center
A CMU lapel pin in silver...his reward from his Game Theory Professor for acing the class
It was on the top drawer of the bed side table, now it was in her purse... or part of its contents
He broke into a half smile
she made mental count, on her finger, set the transparent espresso glass mug on the rail and turned
"Counting pigeons?" he asked innocently
"How did you know?" she lied😳
"U have 6 fingers open, and I see 6?" he offered lamely
"Darn it!" she said😳
she quickly walked over to the kitchen table and stuffed the ziploc and the lapel pin in the purse and then stuffed everything else slooowly
He ran a finger on her arm... feeling the oil
"Champ Elysses opens at 10, we can get there and eat breakfast, dont eat here, he said getting water out of his hair rubbing his towel furiously
He was dressed in blue jeans and yet another attractive shirt, white and navy stripes
She didnt know of ANYONE that looked so good in blue jeans and a simple shirt
Mahathi crooned for Mudhal Mazhai (Bheema)
Ornaal Unnai Naanum Kaanavittaal..
n Vaazhvil Andha Naaley Illai..
Ornaal Unnai Naanum Partheyvittaal..
Annaalin Neelam Pdhavillai..
(The day I dont see you that day doesnt exist in my life
The day I see you, the day doesnt seem long enough to me)
She felt her heart thud painfully... he was so effortlessly handsome so lazily casual, not taking his appearance seriously at all
Everything about him smelled good enough to eat, his soap his hair... even his towel was a gleaming white with bold navy stripes on both sides
He was rarely bare feet, his feet were lighter than Lasya's belly... pink and well groomed
She quietly placed her things in her purse...
He threw the towel on her like a canopy she inhaled for a secret minute, and smiled
Recorded that one minute in her mind's harddrive in a file name "For ever & ever"
It was filling up fast...
Can I add extra storage to "For ever & ever?"
What can the second file be named as?
Part 2?
Part two in the second week of honeymoon? How many Forevers will you have di?
A million😭😭
He removed the towel
"Its all oily now" she muttered grabbing it back from him
she wanted it... there was no easier way of getting it
"I want coffee" he said
"Umm sure"
"Extra foamy?" he asked
She looked up startled wondering if he overheard her mocking him
"Thats the only kind I know how to make"
He didnt usually have his with milk... she made the best coffee she could and watched him sip, he smiled his half smile
She picked up her purse...
"Idhayathai edo ondru izhukkudu yeno indru" Chinmayi sang
Something in my heart
tugs a little today.
never been like this before.
like a sea wave
pulling me to shore
my heart didn't hesitate
to drown itself.
I've one little heart
which was mine till now.
I could see it slipping
away from me slowly.
this is a dream state
dont like disturb it.
I dreamed and saw myself
in my own dream.
what would I want ?
won't you stand and ask once ?.
you and me are same,
when is time to say that ?
to come with bunch of flowers.
to give you with joy.
i am desiring
to share my mind.
what is that stopping me
my heart is helpless
like a leaf i wash away soaked in your river
a bud becoming a flower
is beautiful.
for a 1000 years this transformation has been repeated☺️.
Like a silver anklet in legs,
this mind is murmuring.
like an unworn diamond in my body
a new shyness
will shine on it.
Something in my heart
pulling me a little today.
never been like this before.
like a sea wave
pulling the seashore
my heart didn't hesitate
to drown itself.
this is a dream state
didn't like disturb it.
I dreamed and saw myself
in my own dream.
She put stuff away without talking... heard the pigeons over the sound of the song and went back to stare picked up her mug from the rail
He leaned on the wall, one foot up, one hand tucked into his pocket the other holding his cup, his eyes followed her
she returned with her cup... and set in the sink and let the water flow... over flow
She shut the faucet and looked up to find him looking...
(Author's Note: OUTSTANDING LYRICS by Tamarai, and Chinmayi has just KILLED IT!!👏👏)
