Ajji and i have had a beautiful relationship… we had agreed to disagree on most things except for Chiru… when it came to him we would think of nothing else but only the best for him…Chiru fondly calls her Darling! We have had our moments where we both have been equally stubborn and have even fought… but u have always believed in me and have given me the kind of love which only i can understand… without u, the fundation which the family stands on has shaken.. u have always been indestructible in my eyes… u held on strong!
