You know what is the drawbacks of love only you are in a serious relationship. I was always tortured daily by Pixie-cut through phonecall or messages…. Not that she was rude,but so much of calls and messages is a little...no....very annoying.

But whatever… It felt really good to be loved by someone. I made sure that Yash doesn’t know about this because I was afraid that my cousin….and his girlfriend Shalini may think about it. I got a Whats’app call from Gayu at 8pm.

“Hi Mafia baby….. how are you”

“Hey… how many times will you message and call me daily? How do you have so much of balance in your phone?”

“My dad gave me postpaid sim so…he only pays the bills..hihi”

“Here my dad thinks hundreds of times before he gives me a ten rupees note!”

“Ha ha! Maybe your dad thinks that you may even sell his house and property if he closes his eyes”

“Ena nakkal huh?”

“What?”

“Oh you don’t know tamil na? It means whether you are being sarcastic”

“You told that you will teach tamil na? Please teach me….. please”

“No..”

“With cherries on top…. Please”

“No no no no no…”

“Puppy eyes…Pretty please”

“Ok I will teach later gayu…not now! I have some work to do”

“Hey… actually I called to tell you one surprising news!”

“And what is that?”

“Shalini is coming to meet Yash day after tomorrow…”

“Huh why?”

“They are in love silly.. they want to meet each other and stuff..”

“The romance as they show in movies blah..blah..”

“Shut up for a second and listen to me mafia”

“Ok I locked my mouth and threw the key out of my house”

“Ha ha silly.. we both will be coming tomorrow and stay at the same hotel”

“Hmmm..”

“Shalini doesn’t want you to know about meeting Yash it seems”

“Hmmm….”

“I also didn’t tell her that we love each other”

“Hmm…”

“I have told her that I will be meeting a friend in Coimbatore tomorrow.. so can we meet each other tomorrow?”

“Hmmm…”

“Shit Mara speak something…. Open your mouth… Here is the key to your locked up mouth”

“Ha ha…. Yeah thanks Pixie-cut! Well you are welcome here.. Where can we meet?”

“Somewhere Romantic?”

“I know a perfect place…. Just message me the timing and the deatails about when you will arrive okay? I have some work to do so.. gotta go”

“Yeah sure baby”

The feeling of meet a girl who loves me was totally ..well..incredibly…. yes crazy. I did the work I had to do, and slept in the bed earlier than usual.

Next day morning, Pixie-cut called me through mobile phone.

“Hey Ritu! This is Gayathri”

“What….. pixie-cut.. this is Maradona”

“Actually I am at coimbatore now”

“I already know that silly..”

“So can we meet together today keerthi?”

“ I’m not Reetu dammit.. see my voice is too manly to …”

“Where should I come now?”

“Pick a taxi and come to Gass museum at cowley brown road, RS puram”

“Ok….i will be there in an hour okay?”

“Okay Gayu… no problem but I have college today”

“What… no… maruuu..I mean ritu….. You should come that’s all”

“Ha ha I was kidding.. will be there in an hour as well bye”

“Bye loosu”

I got myself ready and reached Gass forest museum. As I was waiting, I saw a taxi approaching me. Out of it came a very beautiful face I knew.

She was wearing a white chudidhar and her honey brown eyes were hidden by the nerdy glasses.

“Hey Gayu… how are you? You are not pixie-cut anymore!”

“Ha ha ! How are you dear.. Where are we going?”

“In to the museum of course!”

“What! you call your girlfriend on a date to an old Musuem?”

“This place is calm and silent as if it is extinct”

“I can see that mafia”

Saying that, she came near and hugged me gently. As I was too shy, I smiled and covered my face.

“Actually you know what? I only should be covering my face Maru dear”

“Ha ha.. See I’m not used to hugs…especially I haven’t even touched a girl”

“Lier..!! You even slapped me the first day we met”

“I mean… In love sense I’m saying”

“Relax Mafia.. You seem a little emotional today it seems”

“Na nothing like that… hey you know what? You are not at all hot or sexy today”

“Well…. my mom scolded me for having that pixie-cut so I’m growing it up now... Btw don't I really look good?”

“Ha ha in this look you look pretty and beautiful. I am not going to call you pixie-cut from today Gayu!”

“Then?”

“That will decide today ok?”

As I was speaking with her, she started pinching me at my sensitive spots. I couldn’t stop giggling because I liked what she was doing to me.

"Stop it miss imsaiye!!"

"What.....???"

"I have decided this as your official petname... Miss Imsaiye!"

"Tell meaning or I'll pinch the most sensitive spot and you know that will hurt"

"Ha ha stop it.... It means what you are doing now to me..... Disturbance....Miss disturbance!"

"Me? Disturbance? How dare you! Bad mafia"

"Kidding my dear Imsaiye!"

"You flatter me well with your crazy names...Smarty pants"

"And why did you call me Ritu on the phone btw?"

"Shall was near idiot! Thought you must have guessed it"

"Oh.... Ok... Hey let's go in.... I have to show you some fossils!"

"This date can't be more exciting"

"Come on don't be sarcastic.... You know I love this place and the library which is opposite to the museum.... No imsai except you miss Imsaiye!!"

"Can I hold your hand dear mafia?"
