Pratap hugged Madhuri with love. Pratap then cupped her face, then kissed eyes soulfully.

After few minutes, Pratap and Madhuri returned to the car and looked at others. Arjun and Sujithra gave a teasing smile to Madhuri. Madhuri looked down in shy.

Arjun- " vidamuyarchi vishvarooba vetri nu periavanga solrathu evlo correct pathiah jiira?"

Madhav- " Arjuna"

Arjun turned towards Sujithra and said, " nee intha padathuku trailer pathiah jiira, nalla irukum"

Sujithra- " achacho naan pakalayae. nee enna scene nu solriah?"

Vihaan- " atha padam pakum pothu pathukalam papa. rendu perum intha pakkam vanga. Pratap nee pinnadi poo. Madhu nee munnadi vaa"

Sujithra- ' enna mama athukulla jodiah pirikura?"

Vihaan- " correct than, Ajju nee munnadi vaa, Pratap neenga.."

Sujithra- " ethu? illa illa palaya idea ve okay. nee pogatha aththaan", she clutched his hand. Everyone chuckled while Arjun blushed a little with a chuckle

Pratap went and sat near to Arjun. Before Arjun reacts, Pratap hugged him once. Arjun is shocked.

Vihaan- " dei Pratap, unna utkara thaan sonaen"

Pratap- " nee hug panna koodathunu sollave illa da", he wrap his hands around Arjun;s shoulder. Vihaan glared at him via mirror and Pratap chuckled happily. Sujithra giggled.

After a while, They went to the hospital. Dharshini and Aishwarya talked with the doctor and they went in with Sujithra and Madhuri. Men waited outside. After sometimes, they were called inside.

Doctor- " Congratulations Pratap"

Pratap- " thanks doctor."

Doctor- " intha tablets ah daily eduthukanum avanga"

Vihaan-  " avanga travel panalama doctor?"

Doctor- " panalam, konjam pathu panunga"

Madhav- " Scan eppo panalam doctor, Madhu health ippo epadi iruku? "

Doctor- " scan next week pathukalam. Madhu konjam weak ah than irukanga, healthy food ah avanga eduthukanum"

They discussed further more for minutes. Aishwarya and Dharshini too stood there. After a while, they return to the allotted room. They saw Arjun, Sujithra and Madhuri are laughing at each other.

Others looking at themselves and looked at them eagerly. Sujithra and Madhuri stood on the either on the side of Arjun, had their hands in their hips and argued. But Arjun teasingly replied them. Sujithra and Madhuri slapped their forehead at the same time. They looked at each other. Arjun looked at both via corner of his eyes with a mocking smile. They both then started to plead for something in unison. Sujithra and Madhuri are requesting him for something.

Pratap- " apadi enna than kenjuvanga rendu perum Arjun kita?"

Madhav- " vera enna, antha maragatham related ah ethavathu plan kepanga. Ajju kandipa thappa guide panna matan. nee worry panikatha."

Pratap- " DNA report pathathuku apuram than Madhu ipadi marita. Ellamae antha report kudutha thairiam than. oru vela antha report poi nu therincha enna agumnu ninaikave bayama iruku", he said with concern filled eyes looking at Madhuri.

Vihaan- " theriathu da, theriama pathukalam. Madhav plan ithuvaraikum fail anathu illa. Nee, namma plan padi Maragatham, Madhuri ah contact pannama  pathuko. athu pothum."

Dahrshini- " ipo pregnancy hormones um sethu Madhuva change pannum. So ipo Maragatham ava kooda iruka koodathu"

Aishwarya- " everything falls in place as per the plan, anna. Antha report fake-nratha maranthudunga. ipo Maragatham-oda feelings ah vida, Madhuri oda life than mukiam. Maragatham mudincha avanga side la prove panatum, Madhu avanga ponnu thaannu apuram naama enanu plan panalam.."

Pratap looked at Madhuri who is laughing along with Arjun and Sujithra.

Dharshini- " expect panna mathiri Madhu open up aga arambichuta. Arjun-um Suji-um romba talented ah, different ah ella unmaiyaium velila kondu vanthutanga, Madhu kaga. athuvum ava suffer agakoodathunu konjam kooda kovama pesama, romba cool ah handle pani. avanga Madhu-kaga pannathu, ipo kulanthaikum nallatha amanchiruku. ini Madhu va cool ah maintain panna vendiathu unga porupu."

Everyone smiled.

Aishwarya- " intha nerathula avanga romba tension aga koodathu, athu kulanthaikum nallathu illa, avalukum nallathu illa. Neenga first chennai ku ponga, anga irunthu, you just go for some other cool place, yarukum inform panama ponga.. like honeymoon."

Pratap- " Hmm, kandipa", he said with a smile.

Vihaan- " business pathi yosikuriah?"

Pratap- " athu problem illa. i will manage da.".

Madhav- " apuram vera enna yosanai?"

Pratap -" unga kooda iruntha intha naatkal enaku romba pudichurunthathu. Ungala mattum nu illa, en wife yarunu kooda ipo than purinchukiten. ungala piriyanumae nu thaan konjam.."

Vihaan- " priva? dei..", he wrap his hands around his shoulder and said, " athellam kidaiyathu."

Madhav- ' naangalum Chennai kilambiduvom, Dwaraga project ku kilambanum, mudichathum marupadium meet panalam"

They heard a laughing sound. All turned to the room again where the trio is having the pillow fight.

Vihaan- " intha mathiri nerathula Madhu santhosama irukurathu mukiam. ava santhosam nama ellarum sernthu irukurathula thaan irukunu therinchathuku apuramum epadi da?"

Pratap hugged him with a content smile.

Dharshini-" sari sari vanga polam. avanga enna settai panranganu pakalam". They all moved to the room. When they neared the room, all three are settled silently and obediently in the bed. 

Aishwarya- " paah, enna oru nadipu", she mumbled in Dharshini ears. 

Dharshini- "kanna paren, appavathi thanam kottuthu di " , They both chuckled and entered with others.

Vihaan and Madhav updated the news and they all went back to home. Everyone retired to their rooms happily.

In Arjun and Sujithra room, They changed to their night dress. Arjun lied on Sujithra lap. 

Sujithra- " nadanthatha pathi ellam yosichukitu irukatha aththaan, namma thuri pregnant ah iruka atha pathi mattum yosi"

Arjun- " apadi thaan nanum ninaikuren. aana, manasu ulukulla aluthitae iruku jiira."

Sujithra -" naan iruken aththaan, namma samalikalam"

Arjun looked at Sujithra. Sujithra started to sing for Arjun soulfully.

(song: Nenjodu kalanthidu uravaalae film: Kadhal Kondaen)

Nenjodu kalanthidu uravaalae
Kaalangal maranthidu anbae
Nilavodu thendralum varum velai
Kaayangal maranthidu anbae

Her voice is audible even outside their room too. Through the open window other couples too heard the song in a low voice, in her honey voice. Inside the room, Arjun smiled at her.

Oru paarvai paarthu naan nindraal
Siru poovaaga nee malarvaayae
Oru vaarthai ingu naan sonnaal
Vali pogum yen anbae anbae

Sujithra kissed his forehead while singing which makes Arjun to look at her lovely.

Nenjodu kalanthidu uravaalae
Kaalangal maranthidu anbae
Nilavodu thendralum varum velai
Kaayangal maranthidu anbae

She extended her hand inviting him. Arjun sat up and hugged her soulfully. Arjun started to kiss her stopping her from singing. They kissed like there is no tomorrow. Slowly Arjun started his play and soon they forget their whole world. Other couples too had their moments enjoying the night. The closeness between Pratap and Madhuri increased.

The next day, everyone started to do their chores. When everyone assembled in the hall, Pratap came there with Madhuri with holding hands.

Pratap- " unga kita oru santhosamana visayam sollanum thatha"

Moorthy and Rajan looked at each other with a questioning look once and then looked at him.

Pratap- " enga varisu uruvagiduchu.."

Maragatham- " nijamava? en ponnu masama irukala?", She got up with a smile and shock and neared Madhuri.

She tried to touch Madhuri but Madhuri moved to the other side of Pratap moving away from Maragatham. Maragatham and Thamarai looked at her with shock.

Thamarai- " enna di ithellam, un petha amma va nee.."

Pratap- " paati oru nimisham. ithu ava santhosama iruka vendia neram. ipo avala kastapaduthatheenga"

Maragatham- " athukaga enna.."

Pratap- " epavumae unga istapadi thaan ava irukanuma? ava istapadi neenga iruka koodatha. avaluku pudikalaina vilagidunga"

Thamarai -" enna mapla ipadi solreenga. ava petha amma"

Madhuri- " naan onum avanga ponnu illa, enaku intha kudumbamae vendam. sollapona naan ivanga ponu illainu therinchu naan vilaginathuku apuram than enaku nallathu nadanthiruku nu ninaikuren"

Thamarai- " nee ellam"

Pratap -" paati..", he shouted once and then calmly said, " ava masama iruka. ipadi summa summa emotional aagi, masama irukaanu kooda neenga pakama avala thituveenganu thaan naan vilagi irukalam nu solren."

Maragatham- " mapla enna nambunga. ava naan petha ponnu than. naan than ava amma"

Madhuri- " illanga nambatheenga. naan ivangaluku poranthiruka mudiathu. ivanga kandipa kulanthaiah mathirupanga"

Maragatham -" venumna thirupi oruthadava DNA test eduthu paarunga."

Madhuri smirked and said, " athellam ethuku, enga en birthday eppo nu solla solunga pakalam, yaraium kekama"

Pratap looked at Maragatham for answer. Maragatham is struggling to answer that question. She looked around for help. No one knows about her birthday date.

Thamarai- " Birthday therialaina amma illainu agiduvala?"

Pratap -" epo piranthanu kooda theriatha amma ethuku nu thaan ava kekura". There is a silence in the environment.

Pratap -" thatha, intha DNA report ah vachu mothama ellaraium pirikanumnu naan ninaikala. but ivaluku pressure vendam nu ninaikuren. ivaluku entha alavuku pudikalainu ungalukae purinchurukum. So,"

Moorthy- " naanga varamatom pa, nee kavala padama poitu vaa"

Maragatham- " appa en ponnu"

Moorthy- " avala nee than thedi pakanum. kulanthaiah ethuku mathina?"

Maragatham- " naan mathala paa"

Moorthy- " appo vera yaaru mathinathu? nee pethatu mayakathula iruntha. kulanthai maralainu unnala uruthiah solla mudiuma?"

Maragatham remained silent. Everyone started to believe that the baby is exchanged. Maragatham started to think whether Madhuri is her real child since she is not having any characteristic of Maragatham.

Moorthy- " Maragatham, avala nee un ponna valathiruntha avale unkita irunthirupa. DNA report ah patha nimisham thaan Madhu athirchi aana, konjam thadumarina avlo thaan. aana athuku apuram ava avlo santhosama iruka. ivlo santhosama en pethi ah naan ithana varushathula pathathe illa."

Thamarai- " appo namma ponnu santhosam"

Moorthy- " thappu panavanga santhosathama irukanumnu ninaika koodathu. Neenga kilambunga paa"

Maragatham- " neenga solita naan kekanuma? naan en ponna kita poven", she said in a stubborn voice.

Moorthy- " ipo unaku ponnu matum than illa. enna meeri pona apuram unaku amma appa-vum illama poiduvanga. unna yaen ponnae illainu akiduven. athu matum illa, en sothu ellathaium trust ku eluthi vachuruven. unaku oru roobai kooda varathu"

Thamarai -" ennanga neenga namma ponna.."

Moorthy- " nee konjam pesama iru.. avaluku ellam venumna inimae Madhu va paaka poga koodathu. ava ponanu naan kelvi pata avlo thaan, sotha mathi eluthiduven. veeta vittum thurathiduven. en kooda contact la illaina mapla yoda contract um illama pogalam yosichuka sollu"

Thamarai looked at Maragatham with a plead.

Maragatham- " naan pogala", She said with tear flowing eyes.

Madhuri looked at Pratap with a glowing and smiling face. The freedom is visibly felt. Other couples too look at each other. Arjun and Sujithra hugged each other in happiness.

Madhav- " engalukum next project ku date kuduthutanga thatha. naanga kilambarom.". Rajan with a smile nodded his head. 

Everyone had breakfast and started to pack their things. Once done, everyone got ready and they started to Chennai. Yes everything is going back to the routine.

Pratap and Madhuri went to chennai. Pratap and Madhuri journey with us ends here. Let them enjoy their life.
