Mullai is losing her patience as time passes..

He is not picking up the calls for the past 3 days..

Neither replied to her 52 texts..

She just checked again to see if there is any text/call from him..

No..

Nothing..

She was sitting on the cushion of hope and was waiting for the time to come just to take them into the happiness and the peace that they found within themselves, till now..

But, not more than this..

Okay..

She is accepting the fact that she did a mistake..

What she spoke is wrong..

But, that's the fact atleast..

Why he is so stubborn?

She curses herself for being so vulnerable when it comes to him..

It's a habitual issue, she names..

She drafts a plan..

She changes her dress and goes out of her room..

Parvathy-Enga di kelambitta..

M-Koviluku poitu varen ma..

Pa-Innerathukka?

Veyil vera adikkidhu..

M-Paravalla ma..

Inga dhana iruku..

Pa-Un mogam yen ipdi vaadi poi kedakku..

M-Aama, vaadudhu..

Yen ma nee vera..

Pa-Yen di salichikra?

M-Pinna kovil na 100 kelvi kekriye ma nee dhaan..

Pa-Unga appa va kootitu poga sollu..

M-Naan idho poitu varen..

Vandhuruven..

Varen..

She goes out ignoring Parvathy's shouting..

She walks fastly..

She knows it's gonna trigger him more..

But, still she wants it to happen..

She reaches the PS shop..

Kathir sees her and gets infuriated..

He goes and yells at her..

Unna kada pakkam varaadha nu ethana vaati solliruken..Arive illaya?

M-Yen..Naan vandha enna? Periya mama ve onnum sollala naan inga varadhukku..

K-Thani thaniya vera sollanumaa unakku?

M-Enna dhan Kathiru un prachana?

K-Nee dhan..nee varadhu dhan prachana..

Solliten la..Inime varaadha..Kelambu 1st..

Noi noi nu pesikittu..

Imsa Imsa..

M-Sidumoonji sidumoonji...
Kallu maari moonjiya vechittu..Siricha ennavam konjam..

K stares at her..

Moorthy-Dei Kathiru, Yen da andha pullaiya edhachum sollite iruka..

Poda ulla..

Kaalailaye vandhura vendiyadhu..en uyira edukka..

K murmurs and moves..

M is hurt..

Really hurt..

K goes into the store room..

Moo-Nee ulla vaa pa Mulla..

Avan kedakaan..

Vera velaye illa avanukku..

M smiles and goes inside..

Moo asks her to sit..

M-Irukkattum mama..

Kum Mama just enters the shop..

Hey Mulla..

Vaa vaa..

Hey nee inga dhan iruka nu pathu kadai thaandi naan kandupidichiten..

Ha ha ha ha..

M-Vaanga pa..

She lets out a weak smile..

Kum-Enna indha pakkam?

M-Varadhu dhana epodhum?

Kum-Illaye..nee vandhu romba naal aache..

Edhum vishayama?

Illama nee yen vara pora..

M rolls her eyes..

She wants her boiling blood to be calm..

Adhellam onnum illa pa..

Chumma dhan..

Tailor kadaikku vandhen..

Apdiye..

Ingayum vandhen..

Moo-Yen mama..Andha pullaye eppovachum dhan varudhu..

Edhachum kettukittu..

Ponga..

Poi velaya paarunga..

Before Kum mama could reply, Kathir comes out..

He stares at M..

It clearly asked, 'Innum pogalaya di nee?'

M stares at him with the same fierce..

Imsa..

He murmurs..

M-Jeeva Mama illaya?

Moo-Avan collection ku poirukaan pa..

Late aagum nu nenaikren..

Yen na karaikkudi poganum..oru chinna vela irukku...

M-Apdiya mama..

Sari..

Naan kelambaren apa..

Moo-Ada..Irundhutu po pa konjam neram..

M-Irukattum mama..

Amma edhachum sollum..

Naan varen..

She fixes her eyes on K more than 2 seconds and leaves the shop..

Kum-Hey..Andha pulla mogame sari illa..

Ennaachu..

Nee edhaachum sonniya da kathiru..

K-Aama, solraanga..

Ava yaarayum edhachum sollama irundha pathaadha..

Kum mama-Andha pulla kitta ipdi erinju vizhaadha da..

Nalla pesi pazhagu..sariya..

K-Pesraanga..

Ponga mama..

Velaiya paarunga..

Customer varaanga paarunga..

Kum mama attends the customer..

Kathir taps his mobile on his left hand..

He thinks for sometime...

Annae..

Naan poitu Arumugam annachiya paathutu Tea kudichitu varava?

Moo-Veyil adikidhe da..

Inneram poi tea ah?

Venumna moor kondu vara sollava?

K-Illa nae..

Tea kudichitu varen..

Oru maadhiriya iruku..

Moo-Sari paathu poitu va da..

K nods and leaves with his TVS..

His mind is pre-occupied with so many thoughts..

He doesn't know how to vent out his anger...

His insecurities are hitting him hard..

Again..

After all these years..

Frustrations and Anxieties are permanently dancing within him..

He sees M walking slowly..

He gears up and stops near her..

Indhaa..

M turns..

Enna kathiru?

K-Vegaadha veyil la ipdi nadakka unakku enna vendudhalaa?

M is silent..

K-Unkitta dhana kekkren..

M-Illa..Kadaikku vandhen la..

Adhan..

She fidgets the end of her Dhavani..

K-Eru..

Veetla vidren..

M-Veetlaya..

K-Venaam unakku pidikaadhe..

Theru monai la erakki vidren..

Variya?

The 1st arrow..

M is hurt..

M-Naan apdi sollala Kathiru..

K-Idhukku vera enna artham irukum..

Veetula vidava nu kettaa veetukaa nu kekkra nee..

M-Naan nijamave apdi sollala kathiru..

K-Sari vera epdi sonna..

M-Nee veetla kondu vida poriya nu dhan ketten..

K-Oh..Ennoda vara maatiyo nee..

Adha marandhuten..

Naan..

Varen..

The second arrow in a row..

He knows that she is hurt..

But, he wants her to be..

She is getting back all her words probably..

If she is hurt by now, the reason is her own words and K can't be blamed..

M-Kathiru..

Please..

Naan pesinadhu thappu dhaan..

Aana..

Yen pesinen nu..

K-Adhukku velakkam verayaa..

Ennala kekka mudiyaadhu..

Enakku thevai ey illa..

M-Sorry kathiru..

K-Modhalla ipdi ellathukkum en pera yelam podradha vidu..

Sari nee pesina pesite irupa..

Naan varen..

He moves but she stops him by placing her hands on the steel bar of the TVS..

K-Indhaa..

Enna ipa unakku..

M-Veetla vidriya..

Pleaseeee..

K looks into her eyes..

Tears are beginning to well up in her eyes..

K-Azharadha niruthu modha nee..

A tightening of her throat and a short intake of breath happen as she bites her lower lip harder to control her tears..

A single tear squeezes out of her moist eyes..

K-Indhaa niruthu nu solren la..

M-S..o..r..r..y..

Ka..

Th..

I..

Ru..

The words come out in the middle of the hiccups..

K intertwines his hands..

Azhadha...

He doesn't know why his tone changed so soft all of a sudden..

Her moon face that's glistening under the sun?

Her tears?

Or her yellow Dhavani?

Who knows?

Azhuvuradha niruthu..

Vandi la eru..

Veetla vidren..

Neram aachu la..

M wipes her tears and a glimpse of smile sits on her lips..

Nesamava?

K nods yes..

Aama, vaa..

M-Enmela kovam pocha?

She asks as she sits on the TVS..

K-Theriyala..

Irukku nu dhan nenaikren..

Aana, adha apram pesikalam..

M-Sorry kathiru..

K-Unakku apram iruku..

Ipa ozhunga ukkaru..

Vazhila vizhundhu vechu adhukkum unga amma en pullai ah thalli vittutaan nu sollava?

M smiles..

K starts the bike and moves slowly..

They didn't speak anything..

The silence spoke many things..

Many emotions were being conveyed..

He stops at the end of the street..

M-Yen ingaye niruthita..

K-Kovam nu illa..

Innum prachana dhan aagum..

Naan..

Aprama koopadren..

M-Nesamava?

K-Aama..

Ipa kelambu..

Naan varen..

He smiles and moves..

M reaches her home with the joy..
