The Chosen One

Chapter 34 - Fate's game play

"Yes, that I did, but I did it for all of our welfare, what did you expect me to do?  come and tell you, 'Hey Sivu, I too have feelings  for Ashwin' " Mika too asked little frustrated

"But you didn't have any problem telling that to Ashwin right? " Sivaangi argued back

"That too was an accident, in one overflowing emotional moment, I showed him my feelings, but I immediately regretted it and moved to Mumbai completely and after that I made sure my interactions with him are to the bare minimum, until you forced me to do that vlog" she replied

Sivaangi did not reply, her face clearly showing pain, indicating that she was re living that day from her memories.

"I wouldn't have if you had told me about your feelings" Sivaangi said her face clearly reflecting the pain.

"Yeah that was my huge mistake, I became over confident, I thought my feelings for him has vanished and I have moved on and accepted it" replied Mika with guilt

Sivaangi did not reply.

"Sivu, oru second think panni give me an honest answer, would you have told me if our roles had been reversed? " asked Mika looking straight into her eyes, shocking Sivaangi

Sivaangi thought for a while, and her truthful mind immediately gave the answer for her

"She wouldn't have"

Sivaangi nodded her head as a no.

"Then how can you blame me? I know this is all so much screwed up, there was no right or wrong scenarios in this situation, but whatever happened has happened and I think it is high time we all move on from this" Mika said strongly.

Sivaangi did not reply.

"Sorry Mika, in this entire situation most of the mistake was from my side yet I punished both you and Ashwin for something that I did" Sivaangi said sobbing.

"Oh, trust me I was not as genuine as you think of me to be, I too have my share of skeletons in my closet" Mika said hugging her sister.

Sivaangi looked at Mika confused.

"You do know me and Ashwin were living in the same house for more than six months right? " asked Mika 

"Oh that, yeah I know, forget house, I would trust Ashwin even if you both have been living in the same room for 6 months" Sivaangi smirked

"Adi paavi, appo un nambikai ellaam Ashwin mela mattum dhaana? en mela illaya?" Mika asked her with false anger

"Hey chi chi, naan appadi mean pannala" Sivaangi dragged

"You were right not to trust me" Mika said with a grave smile

"Enna solra onnum purila? " Sivaangi asked.

"Well it is quite a long story and sitting on the steps like this is piercing my bony structure, oru chair la okkandhu pesalaama" Mika said getting up.

"Hey iru, vandhadhula irundhu enna saapadra nu kooda kekala? enakkum pasikudhu, vaa poi Ashwin kitta enna lunch kekalaam" said Sivaangi finally playing the hostess job.

When both of them entered the house, they saw Ashwin in the kitchen with an apron.

"Kids enga? " Sivaangi asked looking at Ashwin who was busy stirring something on the stove.

"Thannila vilayaadinadhula tired aagi thoongitaanga" Ashwin replied while giving a warm smile to Mika who responded back with the same

"Ayo, saapadalaye?" Sivaangi asked in a concerned tone.
