"Soha please stop. I accept his voice so beautiful but you are only talking about his physique, you never mentioned anything about his voice."

"Have you ever seen his photo?"

"No, I have not seen him"

"Have not you seen his image while downloading his songs?"

"I have downloaded his songs in my iPod. In my iPod, we cannot see any image. We can only hear songs and also I think the website from which I downloaded the songs didn't have any of his image"

"What rubbish website is that, not even single image?"

"I told it didn't have his image but have group image of fab 5 where I cannot see any their faces clearly and I am not interested"

"Anyway I have successfully added you to Manik's fan club".

"Fan club?"

"Yes, I am head of Manik's fan club of my area and my college friends are member of it"

"Group of insane girls. And I am not fan just I like his voice and songs."

"Okay. Fan of his voice"

"It seems better"

In evening, I saw 8 missed call, 5 from Navya and 3 from my Manager. I forgot my mobile in PG, Navya is going to blast me for not attending her call. 5 times she called, it must be something important. But why that stupid manager called me, he could have pinged in Skype to office mail id. I just ignore him and called Navya.

Surprising Navya didn't mentioned anything about the missed call.

"Why you suddenly planning to celebrate Pongal in Chennai"

"In Chennai DC, the management is conducting some special events"

"What is so special?"

"That is surprise my baby"

"What is the surprise?"

"Nandhini, you are acting like child. Surprises are meant to be kept secret."

"Navya, I need to know, is there anything you are hiding from me?"

"Arrey... No. Why should I hide something from you?"

"You didn't shout at me for missing you call that you usually do, which makes me to doubt"

"Doubt! You are suspecting your best friend that too for planning a festival celebration with you. TOO bad. Don't I have the right to plan for my bestie?"

"Okay Drama Company, stop. Definitely you are up to something. Anyway we can go ahead of your plan. Okay? Happy now?"

"Yea, Happy.... "

"When is your so called special event?"

"Wednesday, 5 pm"

"Navya, Wednesday is working day, if APPA came to know that I take unnecessary leave he will taunt".

"I have booked ticket for you on Tuesday night and my Anna(brother) is calling now. Bye meet you in Chennai". Navya cut the call to avoid my questions. She is acting really weird. What is so special, why she is acting like this? She is not telling, no option left... I need to go to chennai and find that out.

After hectic schedule of 35 days my team submitted the app to our Team leader. My team of 7 member including Aryaman, Soha, new member Shahid, 3 onsite member and myself working on java mobile application developers.

"Day after tomorrow is Sunday and can we plan outing to Lonavala?" Shahid always wanted to go to Lonavala whenever we plan for outing. Soha and Aryaman's native are Pune, so they have went to Lonavala many times. Shahid is from Bengal, he never went there like me. As usual Soha denied as she have some other plans for weekend. So we decided to go to Lonavala except Soha.

"Soha, NO. I am not coming"

"Nandhu, please...pretty please. This is the last time I asking you, I will do what ever you say"

"You should not even say name of Manik for one month after we return from Pongal holidays. Is it ok?"

"Okay, Promise"

"I am sure you cannot keep that promise"

"No, I am damn serious"

This is third time, everything is set to go to Lonavala, but as usual not able to go as Soha convinced me to accompany her for shopping. She is so desperate for shopping as she has to look special and she didn't explain it to me why. I am sure this might be related to that Manik so I didn't compel her.

"Why Nandhini you don't want the reason"

"I don't want to hear anything related to Manik."

"Why, is this because you really don't want to know anything related to him or other girls' feeling for Manik is irritating you?"

"I am not bother about anyone's feeling towards anyone. Why should I feel irritated?"

"Because I feel you started to develop some feelings for him" Navya's voice started to trouble me in my head.

"I think you started to develop feeling towards Manik" Navya told her judgement after hearing my purana of Manik's song for 15 minutes. I accept acted like little girl who have seen rainbow for the first time but I cannot accept her concept. I should stop listening to Soha and her stories.

"I love his voice, that's it.

"I really love his song especially the mysterious significant other song, nothing more than that. And another thing that, I have not yet seen him, so feeling for him and other things are really stupid"

"How can anyone fall for others without even seeing them?"

"You will be answer for you question Nandhini. You have never admired anything this much as far as I know. Yes, I know you love song and the singers. I remember you are crazy for S.Bala Subramanian's voice but I didn't remember you are as crazy for SBS'S Manik's voice"

"These are your imagination Navya"

"Say to yourself"

"Nandhini, come to earth" I was brought back by Soha's voice.

"Sorry I spaced out"

I am not shopping type. Navya used to tease I am the most boring person, and no girl in this world hates shopping.

The man going to marry Soha definitely need so much patience. I have not seen any girl who goes to 20 shops and takes 6 hours to select nothing. After getting inside 21st shop, she finally found one. It is cream color lehenga with dark pink and light grey color borders in either side. The dangling dropping down from the back looks really attractive.

"Nandhini, why you are not shopping for you, the festival season is coming and I heard in Tamil Nadu they will celebrate Pongal for 3 days, so you can select at least one dress for you"

"I am not interested Soha".

"Okay, what is your favorite colour?"

"There is no particular colour, it keeps changing."

Soha gave me you are impossible look.

"What, is it compulsory in Indian constitution to have at least one favourite colour?"

Soha ignored my question and started to shop for me. I fear that she will make me to go through another series of 20 shop, so I took the responsibility to choose a dress for me. After 30 minutes hour of searching in the same shop, I select one dress for me. I selected a lehenga which lower part of the Lehenga choli is red in color but the blouse is total black. It is long sleeve and at the wrist of the hand sleeve and neck wonderful golden design is portrayed.

Soha shouted," Nandhini you told are not interested but look at the dress you have selected, it is so beautiful that I am really jealous of you now. You know what, Manik's favorite color is red and black and you have chosen the same combination".

I thought of giving the dress to her as I can see she totally love this dress but when she mentions Manik's name, I don't know why I am not ready to give the dress to her
