"heyy heyy... Iru maa..." 
Ashwin hurriedly stopped shivangi before opening the car door for her and she gets inside with a smile... Bending down he took the bottom of her gown that was hanging out of the car and put it inside while she wore the seat belt... 
Closing the door after cross checking her comfort, he walked to the other side got inside, beside her... Wearing the seat belt he starts the car and Shivangi gazed out of the window only to see the evening sky turning dark as if it was going to be night soon... 
The darkness of the pouring rain aroused the sky which was supposed to be orange by the time... The rain which was drizzling all the while started to get hard again in its pace and she sighed throwing her head back to the head rest... 
Ashwin was gazing her in between as she kept her eyes lingered to the dark sky... "Maaa..." His voice passed through her ears as she started to drown in to some deep thinking and she just hummed to him... 
"Yennachu maa... Yen oru maari irukka..." He asked frowning to himself and she nodded a no before turning to him with a slight smile, "hmmhmm... Onnula Ashwineyyy..." She said shaking her head again and he turned back his attention to the highway, "madam thaan romba deep aa edho think paneetey vandheengale... yenna vishayam ..." 
He asked smiling at the flash of the lightening that passed them and she closed her eyes in reflex... Her closed eyes shrinks further more when the loud thundering was heard making him smiles at her reaction and he took her hand into his... 
Removing her fist he slides his fingers in between her's and held it tight, pressing it in assurance, "maa... Baya padaatha... Naa thaan irukken laa..." He said rubbing the skin of her upper palm with his thumb and she opened her eyes only to gaze lock it with his...
His soft gaze made her relax and he smiled when the lines on her forehead disappears as soon as she gazed into him... Turning his attention back to the highway he gazed over the welled up streets through the whipper that is moving to and fro... 
He can feel her grabbing his hands with both of her palm and smiled to himself... Taking the right turn he slowed down the car speed as the road seems a bit problematic and shivangi turned on the bluetooth, connecting it to her phone... Grabbing his left hand with her right, she used her left to go through the mobile and switched on a random playlist...
'Akkam pakkan' from kreedam becomes the starter and she smiled leaning back to the seat... Gazing out with their joined hand on her lap she smiled feeling the peace arousing her whole... The rain started to get heavy blurring her view and Ashwin squeezed her palm now and then as the lightening returned...
'Akkam pakkam yaarum illla
Bhoologam vendum...
Andhi pagal Unarugae
Naan vaazha vendum...
En aasai ellam un irukathilae
En ayul varai un anaipinilae...
Verenna vendum ulagathilae
Indha inbam pothum nejinilae
Ezhezhu jenjam vaazhndu viten...
Akkam pakkam yaarum illla
Bhoologam vendum...
Andhi pagal Unarugae
Naan vaazha vendum...'
The music goes on as the rain started to pour hard and Ashwin kept on rubbing her palm to make her feel ease... Certainly hearing her humming Ashwin titled his head to her only to smile seeing her already gazing at him...
"Nee pesum vaarthaigal segarithu
Seiven anbae orr agaraathi..." His eyes softened when she sang along the song gazing at him with full of love and she smiled blinking her eyes at him, "Nee thoongum nerathil thoongamal
Parpen thinam un thalai kothi...
