The Pooja got over and Adithya asked everyone to pray. After few minutes Maya joined them and she also joined her hands and stood there with them.

They completed the rituals and all started to eat. Meanwhile Varun reached home and he saw his paatti reading some book. He saw her and she signaled him that she had kept a silent fast today so they can speak tomorrow. Understanding it he nodded his head, refreshed himself up. He came to the hall and started to see television. His dad was also doing Pooja so he also shouted,” Switch off Varun.” He turned it off went to his room, closed the door and switched on his computer and started to play games. His mind of was full of Maya.

He wanted to chat with her but didn’t know what to speak. So he took his mobile and typed, ‘Hi Varun here’ in WhatsApp but she hadn’t seen it. The day passed for both without doing anything.

Next day morning Maya got up and rushed to her office. On the other hand Varun also got up and hurried to the office. Maya had tied her shawl around her head and above it she wore a helmet. They both were running late so both speeded up. Maya saw Varun near the Thiruvanmiyur signal who was wearing a helmet and dressed up in blue checked shirt and half white jeans. Seeing his eyes through the helmet she was able to recognize that it was him so she waved Hi to him. He wasn’t able to recognize who it was so he ignored it. Maya found gaps so she went and stood beside him. He saw the girl next to him in black scooty who had dressed herself up in ash-pink kurta and black jeans. As she had tied a shawl around her he was unable to see her face but he noticed that she was waving him Hi. He didn’t want to disappoint the girl so he waved back and turned to see the signal. The signal turned to Green so he raised up his speed and went. Seeing his behavior Maya understood that he wasn’t able to recognize her. So she thought to play with him using this today.
