Author's POV
Inside a restaurant a man was sitting in front of Uyir with a victorious smirk... That not all affected her...
He spoke...
"Hello again Uyir Shivashankar... Oopps... Now Mrs. Uyir Jayadev right... "
She was just looking at him with calm eyes... Seeing zero objection he continued..
"Congratulations on your first defeat that to by me now your publication is below mine.... In the second place how does this first failure feels like... Please let me know... I am eager to listen from you...... "
While he was speaking the coffee came up she thanked the waiter with a small smile and ordered more food items.... Her behavior add fuel to that man's ego...... Fumes were coming out of his ears....
Without minding him she sipped her coffee.... The MD of her publication is sitting beside her was trying to control the laugher that threatening to come out seeing their competitors fuming in anger even after getting the first spott throwing them behind ...
"What are you trying huh....you behaves like it was nothing to you..... Let me remind you... You lost in this business to me I brought your best selling writers and made them write for my publication.... And here you bahave like it wasn't your failure..... Is it because of your family background... Your father and brother would take care of it or your new husband Jayadev will help you by buying my whole publication just to make you win.... ... "
When he said that words mentioning her husband only she looked straight into his eyes... He was taken back due to the intensity of her eyes... It's still scary how can he forget angry Uyir's eyes.... He gulped....
Uyir leaned back on the seat comfortably after placing the cup down on the table spoke to him......
"Is that scar is still painful even after 8 years.... Tsk tsk tsk...... "
She said with pitifully face she is clearly Mocking him...
"Just because you won me once that doesn't mean you will win everytime..... Now you lost accept it... "
He said.. She chuckled....
"Yeah I lost so what..... I don't have the thirst to win nor feared of failures.......
And you should say me how actual failure feels like because even after all this year's you still consider your defeat..... Soo... "
She said with a smirk and he stood up left with anger and incapacitation of handling her calmness as usual....
Once he left the MD Aarthi looked at Uyir who now eating her cheese burger without any worries..
"Ma'am.... Aren't you feel disappointed in us.. I actually expected that you would scold us for this failure... We were always been on the first position now we were pushed back to second.... We did lost our major writers..... Aren't you worried about that... "
Uyir looked at her actioned her to eat the food.... Then asked...
"Should I??? "
Aarthi looked befuddled at her chairman's calmness regarding the issue... Uyir smiled at her...
"As I said I don't have the thirst to win like anyone in my family also like my husband..... Till I am doing what I like I consider that as win only.....don't worry that won't come in your life when you don't get paid on your salary day.....
Arrange board meeting to discuss this matter...... Remember neither me nor Aadhi started this publication to win anyone... It's about own satisfaction of doing good and bring out stories that need to be told....
Just to bring new consumers... Disappointing the existing ones is not my ethics..... Understand "
Uyir said her clearly... Aarthi nodded her head and took a bite of the burger finally with a smile...
Bracing up some confidence she asked Uyir..
"Maam can I ask you something"
Uyir nodded her head assuring her to go ahead
"Mr.Rohan spoke like he did that intentionally... Did he have any fight with you in past...he spoke like he was your enemy.... "
Uyir chuckled... And shrugged her shoulder
"He thinks like that... "
Aarthi nodded her head....she left when Uyir asked her to leave and now it was just Uyir and the food she was relishing...
"Seems like the meeting ends very soon "
Uyir looked up the intruder who dared to disturb her while eating... Upon seeing she signed...
"Owww.....That's rude little girl.... Remember I am your sister in law and you are the one invited me to join you for lunch. "
Tisya said with fake painful tone making Uyir shook her head in disbelief.... Tisya took her seat and ordered for herself because she knows Uyir won't share her food with anyone and seeing how much Uyir eating and the line up in front of her Tisya understood something was off with her best friend...
"What's upp Little girl.... You aren't someone who worries for getting any loss in any position..... And I remember I already paid you and no due was pending.... Its you who is not at all ready to give me any new designs so far considering your current confused life I didn't bothered you regarding that..... Did you called me to negotiate for that... "
Uyir rolled her eyes hearing her words....
"You clearly know it's not regarding any of that... Then why are you asking"..
Uyir asked Tisya..
"Because you're not saying anything... And I know I have to initiate a conversation even though it was you who wanted to speak with me.... "
Tisya replied her in a duh tone.... Being Uyir's only friend isn't a easy task at all and Tisya was too good at that for the past 19 years... So...
Uyir signed in defeat and looked at Tisya....
"Did Anna ever irritated you and you have no clue how to handle that situation and gone insane because you can't even shout at him or beat the shit out of him... "
Tisya laughed out loud hearing her.... Uyir glared at her.... Trying her best to control her laugh Tisya said...
" That's not a Question... He does that everytime . And yeah welcome to the club you aren't alone...... "
Uyir furrowed...
"What do you mean by that.... Anna is the calmest and considerate person I ever seen.... "
"Indeed your anna is like that...but here we are speaking about the husband aren't we??? "
Uyir looked at her best friend with wide eyes.... She easily got where Uyir is leading this conversation on the beginning itself...
Tisya continued...
"Okay Uyir... Forget the fact that I am your sister in law.... We are just the best friends so speak up what you want to ask and I will try my best not to sound like I am taking about your brother who is my husband... Now say what is the confusion.."
Uyir took deep breath and also took one bite of the cheese cake... And narrated what happened.....
Now Uyir was regretting calling Tisya to speak about this because she was now laughing at her without any gap... Like Uyir was doing a parody of best stand up comedy....
Frustrated Uyir throwed the fork at Tisya who catched it on perfect time...... Uyir was glaring at her...
"I can't believe this.... Woah .... Finally this day arrived wooww....... I became fan of your husband now.... ... He did something which is never done by others... "
She again continued her laughing...... Uyir now throwed another spoon this time it hit Tisya's head....
"Owww.. Girl you should through this on the man who is making you go insane but see you are showing your anger at me...... "
"I couldn't do that that's the problem"
Uyir said in frustration.... And held her head... Tisya signed and looked at her....
"You love Him Uyir.... "
She looked up at Tisya with a frown.... Tisya smiled at her..
"More than you that guy loves you.... "
"Yeah that's why he is making me go insane.... "
Uyir huffed.... Tisya chuckled...
"He doesn't want you to get hurt by his ignorance and distance.... So he was just diverted your mind using your Ego.... I must say he is smart.... "
Uyir didn't understand what she was speaking... Tisya continued..
"We both have something in common which is what binded us..... That's silence... Which you love and I hate..... Silence is my direct weakness and your indirect....
Also silence was something which make both us go insane..... If your brother keeps silent in front of me I will be more frustrated and he always does that when he need sometime and hiding something from me....... When he was ready to tell that to me he will broke the silence....
And by what you said... I can see the resemblance..... He needed time to accept the fact that you and the girl he loved without knowing was same....
That time period he wanted to be alone away from you.... He doesn't want that distance hurt you so he came up with this idea..... And he would surely don't mind to loose in this challenge when he was ready to say what he was hiding from you....."
"If you can predict this why I couldn't see this... I am not like this right..."
Uyir asked Tisya...
"Because you are in love ,that's what loves makes you do... Most wise person to become an blind believer when it comes to the person he or she loves...
You could have seen this when you aren't in love with him.....
Did you ever thought why his silence is bothering you ... Why you couldn't accept his absence......
You will get the answer Little girl.... .. "
Uyir was silent she was thinking deeply about what Tisya said and that actually makes sense.....
"Okay that's enough of eating today.... Now let's get going... "
Tisya said and paid the bills and dragged Uyir who was in her thoughts....
Once they both were out of sight....
"Whole family of your in laws seems more dangerous da Jai..... "
Said Vikram...Jayadev didn't reacted to that comment of him..
"Find out who is that guy and what problem he has with Uyir.... I want every single details"...
Jayadev gave him another work and moved out...followed by Vikram ..
Both of them stoped by to have lunch when they were supposed to leave they saw Uyir coming in... So they botb stoped and stayed in the same seat... Which is behind the seat of Uyir... A wall separated the both spaces still he could hear what they spoke as the doors were slightly open.....
