Puvi and Naveen picked up the bags as they led the others out of the station."Will the auto go till Purasaiwakkam, pa?" Puvi's father asked the auto driver standing outside."Yes, sir," the driver replied, settling into his seat."Alright, Puvi, you two come later. We'll go ahead," his father said as he and Puviâs mother got into the auto and left.Priya instinctively stepped closer to Puvi, feeling uneasy in the unfamiliar surroundings."Okay, machan, see you at work," Naveen said casually, walking towards his bike and riding off to his hostel."H-how are we g-going?" Priya asked, her voice uncertain.With a playful grin, Puvi gestured toward a parked bike. "Tada!" he announced, proudly standing next to his Royal Enfield.Priyaâs eyes lit up with excitement. She had always wanted to ride on a bike.But just as quickly, her heart started pounding with anxiety. 'What if I donât fit? What if he canât balance properly?' she thought, looking hesitant."Priya! Get on the bike!" Puviâs voice snapped her out of her thoughts."B-but..." she hesitated."But?" Puvi raised an eyebrow, confused.Looking down in embarrassment, she muttered, "I think Iâm too big for it."Puvi immediately stepped off the bike. "Priya, look at me," he said firmly.When she didn't respond, he gently lifted her chin, making her meet his gaze."Youâre not too big for anything. Trust me. My bike would be honored to have you on it. Now hop on before the cops think we're up to something," he said with a teasing smile, releasing her chin.Blushing, Priya climbed onto the bike behind him.Puvi revved the engine and started riding out of the parking lot.As they passed by, they overheard a passerby sayâ"Look how big she is."Priyaâs face fell, the sparkle in her eyes dimming.Puvi clenched his jaw as anger surged through him.How dare they talk about his Priya like that? பà¯à®µà®¿à®¯à¯à®®à¯ நவà¯à®©à¯à®®à¯ பà¯à®à®³à¯ à®à®à¯à®¤à¯à®¤à¯à®à¯à®à¯à®£à¯à®à¯ ரயில௠நிலà¯à®¯à®¤à¯à®¤à¯ விà®à¯à®à¯ வà¯à®³à®¿à®¯à¯ à®à¯à®©à¯à®±à®©à®°à¯." à®à®à¯à®à¯ பà¯à®±à®à¯à®µà®¾à®à¯à®à®®à¯ வர௠பà¯à®à¯à®®à®¾, பா?" பà¯à®µà®¿à®¯à®¿à®©à¯ ஠பà¯à®ªà®¾ வà¯à®³à®¿à®¯à¯ நிறà¯à®à¯à®®à¯ à®à®à¯à®à¯ à®à®¿à®°à¯à®µà®°à®¿à®à®®à¯ à®à¯à®à¯à®à®¾à®°à¯."à®à®®à®¾à®®à¯ à®à®¾à®°à¯," à®à®©à¯à®±à¯ à®à®¿à®°à¯à®µà®°à¯ à®à¯à®±à®¿, தனத௠à®à¯à®à¯à®à®¿à®²à¯ ஠மரà¯à®¨à¯à®¤à®¾à®°à¯."à®à®°à®¿ பா, பà¯à®µà®¿, நà¯à®à¯à®à®³à¯ à®à®°à¯à®µà®°à¯à®®à¯ பினà¯à®µà®°à¯à®à¯à®à®³à¯, நாà®à¯à®à®³à¯ à®®à¯à®¤à®²à®¿à®²à¯ பà¯à®¯à¯à®à¯à®à¯à®³à¯à®à®¿à®±à¯à®®à¯," à®à®©à¯à®±à¯ à®à¯à®²à¯à®²à®¿à®µà®¿à®à¯à®à¯, ஠வர௠மறà¯à®±à¯à®®à¯ பà¯à®µà®¿à®¯à®¿à®©à¯ à® à®®à¯à®®à®¾ à®à®à¯à®à¯à®µà®¿à®²à¯ à®à¯à®©à¯à®±à¯à®µà®¿à®à¯à®à®¾à®°à¯à®à®³à¯. பிரியா பà¯à®µà®¿à®¯à®¿à®©à¯ பினà¯à®©à®¾à®²à¯ மறà¯à®¨à¯à®¤à¯à®à¯à®à¯à®£à¯à®à®¾à®³à¯, ஠நà¯à®¨à®¿à®¯à®®à®¾à®© à®à®à®¤à¯à®¤à®¿à®²à¯ பயணிபà¯à®ªà®¤à®©à®¾à®²à¯ தனà®à¯à®à¯ வநà¯à®¤ ஠வà®à®° à®à®£à®°à¯à®µà¯ மறà¯à®à¯à® à®®à¯à®¯à®©à¯à®±à®¾à®³à¯."à®à®°à®¿ à®®à®à¯à®à®¾à®©à¯, நாளà¯à®à¯à®à¯ வà¯à®²à¯à®à¯à®à¯à®ªà¯ பாரà¯à®à¯à®à®²à®¾à®®à¯," à®à®©à¯à®±à¯ à®à¯à®²à¯à®²à®¿à®à¯à®à¯à®£à¯à®à¯, நவà¯à®©à¯ தனத௠பà¯à®à¯à®à¯ நà¯à®à¯à®à®¿ à®à¯à®©à¯à®±à¯, ஹà¯à®¸à¯à®à®²à¯à®à¯à®à¯ à®à®à¯à®à®¿à®à¯ à®à¯à®©à¯à®±à®¾à®©à¯."நாம௠à®à®ªà¯à®ªà®à®¿ பà¯à®à®ªà¯à®ªà¯à®à®¿à®±à¯à®®à¯?" à®à®©à¯à®±à¯ தà®à¯à®®à®¾à®±à®¿à®à¯ à®à¯à®à¯à®à®¾à®³à¯ பிரியா ."à®à®¾à®à®¾!" à®à®©à¯à®±à®¾à®©à¯ பà¯à®µà®¿ , à®à®°à¯ பà¯à®à¯à®à®¿à®©à¯ à®®à¯à®©à¯à®©à®¾à®²à¯ நிறà¯à®à®¿à®±à®¾à®©à¯â஠வன௠ராà®à®¾ ராணி பà¯à®²à®à¯ à®à®°à¯à®¤à¯à®®à¯ ராயல௠à®à®©à¯à®à®ªà¯à®²à¯à®à¯! பிரியாவினà¯Â à®à®£à¯à®à®³à¯ பிரà®à®¾à®à®¿à®¤à¯à®¤à®©. ஠வளà¯à®à¯à®à¯ à®à®ªà¯à®ªà¯à®¤à¯à®®à¯ பà¯à®à¯à®à®¿à®²à¯ பயணம௠à®à¯à®¯à¯à®µà®¤à¯à®©à¯à®±à®¾à®²à¯ à®à®à¯.à®à®©à®¾à®²à¯ திà®à¯à®°à¯à®©à¯à®±à¯ ஠வளத௠à®à®¤à®¯à®®à¯ பà®à®ªà®à®à¯à®à®¤à¯ தà¯à®à®à¯à®à®¿à®¯à®¤à¯.

As he zipped past a puddle at full speed, the muddy water splashed all over the girls who had dared to comment about his wife.Priya clung to him tightly, startled by the sudden movement. Puvi couldnât help but smile at her adorable reaction as he gradually slowed down upon reaching the main road."Sorry, but I had to do that. No one talks about my wife like that," Puvi said with a mischievous grin, catching her gaze in the side mirror.Priya felt her face heat up at his bold declaration. All her sadness melted away as she buried her blushing face against his back, feeling warmth spread through her heart. பிரியாவà¯à®ªà¯ பறà¯à®±à®¿à®ªà¯ பà¯à® ஠வரà¯à®à®³à¯à®à¯à®à¯ à®à®©à¯à®© à®à®°à®¿à®®à¯?à®à®¤à¯à®¯à¯à®®à¯ யà¯à®à®¿à®à¯à®à®¾à®®à®²à¯, பà¯à®µà®¿ à®à®°à¯ ஷாரà¯à®ªà¯ U-à®à®°à¯à®©à¯ à®à®à¯à®¤à¯à®¤à®¾à®©à¯, வà¯à®à®®à®¾à® ஠நà¯à®¤ à®à¯à®´à¯à®µà¯ நà¯à®à¯à®à®¿ திரà¯à®®à¯à®ªà®¿à®©à®¾à®©à¯. நà®à¯à®ªà®¾à®¤à¯à®¯à®¿à®©à¯Â à® à®°à¯à®à¯ ஠திவà¯à®à®®à®¾à® பà¯à®à¯ à®à®à¯à®à®¿à®¯à®µà¯à®à®©à¯, à®à¯à®±à¯à®®à¯ நà¯à®°à¯à®®à¯ à®à®±à®¿à®¨à¯à®¤à¯, ஠வனத௠மனà¯à®µà®¿à®¯à¯ பறà¯à®±à®¿ பà¯à®à®¿à®¯ ஠நà¯à®¤ பà¯à®£à¯à®à®³à®¿à®©à¯ à®à®à®®à¯à®ªà¯ à®®à¯à®´à¯à®µà®¤à¯à®®à¯ à®à®¿à®¤à®±à®¿à®¯à®¤à¯.஠வà®à®°à®¤à¯à®¤à¯à®à¯ பிரியா பà¯à®µà®¿à®¯à®¿à®©à¯ à®à®à®²à¯ à®à®±à¯à®à¯à®à®®à®¾à® பிà®à®¿à®¤à¯à®¤à¯à®à¯ à®à¯à®£à¯à®à®¾à®³à¯. பà¯à®µà®¿ ஠வளத௠஠பà¯à®ªà®¾à®µà®¿à®¯à®¾à®© à®à®¤à®¿à®°à¯à®µà®¿à®©à¯à®¯à¯ à®°à®à®¿à®à¯à®à®¾à®®à®²à¯ à®à®°à¯à®à¯à® à®®à¯à®à®¿à®¯à®µà®¿à®²à¯à®²à¯. பிரதான à®à®¾à®²à¯à®¯à¯ à® à®à¯à®¯à¯à®®à¯ பà¯à®¤à¯ à®®à¯à®¤à¯à®µà®¾à® பà¯à®à¯à®à¯ à®à¯à®±à¯à®¤à¯à®¤à®¾à®©à¯."மனà¯à®©à®¿à®à¯à®à®£à¯à®®à¯, à®à®©à®¾ à®à®¤à¯à®à¯ à®à¯à®¯à¯à®¯ வà¯à®£à¯à®à®¿à®¯à®¤à¯ தானà¯. à®à®©à¯ மனà¯à®µà®¿à®¯à¯ பறà¯à®±à®¿ à®à®ªà¯à®ªà®à®¿ பà¯à® யாரà¯à®à¯à®à¯à®®à¯ à®à®¨à¯à®¤ à®à®°à®¿à®®à¯à®¯à¯à®®à¯ à®à®²à¯à®²à¯?" à®à®©à¯à®±à®¾à®©à¯ பà¯à®µà®¿, à®à®£à¯à®£à®¾à®à®¿à®¯à®¿à®²à¯ ஠வளின௠à®à®£à¯à®à®³à¯ பாரà¯à®¤à¯à®¤à¯à®à¯à®à¯à®£à¯à®à¯, à®à®¿à®°à®¿à®ªà¯à®ªà¯à®à®©à¯.பிரியாவின௠மà¯à®à®®à¯ à®à®¿à®µà®¨à¯à®¤à¯ விà®à¯à®à®¤à¯. தனத௠à®à®£à®µà®°à®¿à®©à¯ à®à®¨à¯à®¤à®¤à¯ திறநà¯à®¤ வà¯à®³à®¿à®ªà¯à®ªà®¾à®à¯à®à®¾à®²à¯ ஠வளத௠வரà¯à®¤à¯à®¤à®®à¯ à®®à¯à®±à¯à®±à®¿à®²à¯à®®à¯ மறà¯à®¨à¯à®¤à®¤à¯. வà¯à®à¯à®à®¤à¯à®¤à¯à®à®©à¯ ஠வன௠மà¯à®¤à¯à®à®¿à®²à¯ தன௠மà¯à®à®¤à¯à®¤à¯ மறà¯à®¤à¯à®¤à®¾à®³à¯, மனதில௠à®à®°à¯ à®à®©à®¿à®®à¯à®¯à®¾à®© பà¯à®¤à¯ à®à®£à®°à¯à®µà¯ பரவியதà¯.
