Ponniyin Selvan
It was midnoon.
Selvan was lying on his bed with his eyes closed. The sun shone it's heat on his face. He lived on an apartment on the 2nd floor.He was tired of yesterday's party. All his friends came over for his birthday. It was a huge celebration. He cut cakes, had sweets, desserts and a heavy dinner. Must mention, was the DJ night until 4 am in the morning. Selvan enjoyed it thoroughly, because it was a long time since he met his friends all at once. But a parallel thought about the one day drama and funs existed in his mind. Was this all worth the money spent? Never mind, you had fun said another voice inside him. He still lied in bed thinking.

A notification sound bleeped in his mobile phone. With half eyes open, Selvan took a look at the pop-up notification. Suddenly, he straightened up and sat up shaking his head. Now he looked at the message properly. Yes, it is indeed her. He smiled to himself sheepishly.
Ponni.

It read, 'belated birthday wishes senior.'
Selvan replied with a 'thank you:)'
He typed...'I thought you said you won't text me anymore.' But deleted it without sending. He kept on typing and deleting without sending while Ponni was online all along. Finally he sent another 'thank you' forgetting he had thanked her already for the wishes.

Ponni sent a laughing emoji. Selvan realised his mistake and sent a 'hehe'.
He went offline not able to bear the embarrassment. He went online just to check if she was online still. And she was.
Both were online for about 3 minutes...
