Next day morning....

5.30 AM...

Mullai, manju and suji were in deep sleep with their room door unlocked..

Kas : ei... yelunthurenga de... inum thongarenga...

Man : mani yena athachi...

Kas : anjarai achu...

Suj : anjarai maniku yethuku ipadi pei madhiri ulaathitu irukenga...

Kas : vaailaye poduven... yelunthu kulichitu kelambunga... de mulla... kanna thora...

Manju and suji sat up in bed with kasthuri's continuous nagging...

Man : athachi.. kadai eh 9 ku than thorapanga... ipave poi anga yena pana porom...

Kas : illaa de.. kamatchi amman koil, ekambareshwarar koil, perumal koil yellam poitu appuram kadai ku pogalam nu mudivu paname... maranthuducha..

M : schhhh... athachi na vanthu padukum bothe oru mani ku mela agiduchu... pesama ponga...

Mullai covered her head with a pillow and started sleeping...

Kas : vanthu paduthala... yenga pona iva...

Manju and suji exchanged a alarmed glance...

Man : athu nanga moonu perum chumma vilaiyaditu irunthom... paduka late agiduchu.... atha solra...

Suj : aama aama athachi...

Kas : aama de.. chinna pullainga.. vilaiyaditu irunthurukenga...

Parvathy came in..

P : ei yelunthurika yevalo neram anga thambinga yellam kuda yelunthachu...

Mulla.. mulla... yelunthuru ma...

Mulla woke up immediately with her favorite suprabaatham... She know how the music will twist if she doesn't wake up...

M : yena ma.. ivalo sikiram...

P : koil ku poganum de.. kamatchi amman koil la unaku mapillaikum oru archanai pananum... yelunthuri...

Mullai got up yawning as it was something to do with kathir...

P : Veliya hall la yelarukum tea vechuruken.. vanthu kudichutu ready agunga..

All three got freshed up and left to the living room to see everyone having their morning drink...

Kathir smiled at mullai as she came out... His smile became wider when he saw her giving a salute at him with a cute yawn...

P : mulla....ithu unaku coffee...

M : sari ma...

Mullai took her coffee and sat down near manju...

San : mulla... kathir ku coffee pidikaathu tea than pidikum... neeyum pesama tea ku maariko...

Suj : ava yen maaranum vena kathir maaratum... yena kathir...

Mu : ada nalla iruke sankaru....

Suj : super idea mama...

Man : aama aama super idea...

Chorus : parrrrrrra....

Kathir smiled warmly at mullai...

Je : neeya de ithu...

Kas : yen na unga thangachi ku yeduthu kuduthathe illaye... yetha solida poren.. ponga.. poi kelambunga...

All chuckled at jega...

K : athellam pidikum....neenga yedunga...

Kas : aama muhurthathuku avanga yeduthukatum.... namma ithuku yeduthuduvom... photo anupi ketta pochu...

M : appo ok...

They discussed for sometime, got ready and started to temple...

As they finished the dharshan and walked back to car,

K : Oi...

M : hmmm...

K : madam ku bayangara thookama...

M : aamanga... thoongina madhiriye illa... late ah thoonginama udane elupitanga... tired ah iruku.. nalla velai iniki enaku shopping illaa... illana olunga kuda select paniruka mudiyaathu....

K : hmm... mogatha paathale theriyuthu... ivalo alaga saree yellam katti kuda dull ah iruke...

M : oh appo na alaga illaya...

K : Oi... face la tiredness theriyuthu nu sonen... nalla illa na sonen... yepavum pola alaga than iruke...

M : alaga than iruke nu yetho salichikitu solriya...

K : ithenna varthai ku varthai mallu katara... apdi yelam na onum solala madam.... vaanga polam....

M : hmmkmmm...

They had their breakfast and started the shopping again...

First they went to gents section and completed muhurtham shopping for kathir in just five minutes...

He took a plain silk dhothi and silk shirt for muhurtham...
He didnt want any colored ones for murtham nor did mullai..
They preferred a classy and majestic look...

Mu : mapilla aapdiye inoru paatu sattai pattu veshti vangikonga...

K : muhurthathuku vanginathu pothum mama... mapillai alaipuku avangaloda vangikaren... nalanguku vera dress... karaikudi illaana trichy la...

Mu : athu appuram vangikalam mapilla... ipo innum onnu vangikonga...

K : illa mama... vangi yethuku waste pananum... pattu yellam yena dailyuma podarom...

Mu : athuku illa mapilla...

Je : dei sadanguku vanganum.. onnu vangiko... chumma venam venam nu tu...

He looked up at mullai who was smiling naughtily...

K (embrassingly) : oh sari ne...

He picked up another set of dhothi and plain silk shirt..

M : yenga...

K : sollu...

M : color sattai edukalame...

K : potathum kalati vekka porom... athuku yena color yedutha yena...

M(blushing): chumma irukeyala.. yarukavathu kettuda poguthu...

K : kekatum... yenaku yena... unmai ah than eh solren...

M : athu sari...

They selected matching dress for everyone in the family asking the sizes and took a silk dhoti and a yellowish orange color shirt....

All together the gents purchase was over in less than half an hour...Then they came back to the ladies shopping...

Everyone settled just like the previous day... Just a difference, Kathir was not in game anymore as mullai's purchases were over... He started looking out for something in his mobile...

First, they started seeing pink sarees for all ladies for mapilai alaippu and nalangu...
They selected sarees, made video calls to gayathri, dhanam, meena and selected sarees for everyone and passed on to next set....

As time passed, mullai could feel something uncomfortable... She could get the answer for her irritation, body pain and tiredness from morning...

Seeing her wriggle in her place, parvathi got a clue whats all about... Mullai left to washroom and came back irritated to the core that her happy shopping day is spoiled and she has a whole long travel to go through with this...

P : yena de achu.. mudiyalaiya..

M : aama ma... thoram agiten...

P : nenachen... sari veetuku po... unaku mukkiyama vangiyache elam... mathathe na vaangikaren... poi kulichitu paduthu thoongu.. thirumbi vera poganume...

M : aiyo nenachale kashtama iruku ma...

She irritatingly placed her head on her mom's shoulders...

Man : yena achu de...

Manju, suji and kasthuri learnt the sitch and they suggested the same to leave and take rest...

Kas : yen atha.. ivaluku ipadi vara nerathulaiya plan panuvegha.. kashtam ila...

P : illa de.. inum oru vaaram iruku... thidirnu agitta...

Suj : sari vidunga.. ava romba neram ukara mudiyathu.. poi rest edukkatum.....

Man : aama.... kelambatum chithi... thirumba 7 mani neram poganume...

Parvathi informed the same to murugan... The concerned father wanted his daughter to rest immediately... He saw kathir was totally bored and disoriented with shopping today in contrast to yesterday.. Off course he could get the reason too...

Mu : parvathi mapilla ah kutitu poga soluvoma... avarum inga bore adichitu irukaru... yethum thappu illaye.. vena neenga yaaravathu kuda porengala...

P : avale mudiyama iruka... ipo poi yethuku athelam paathutu... ithula yena thappu... avare kutitu pogatum... inum yelarukum eduthu mudikanum.. appuram mullaiku konjam saatha pudavai yedukanum...neram agidumnga... avanga pogatum...

Mu : appo sari...

P : mulla ne mapilla ah kutitu veetuku po...

M : sari ma...

Mu : mapilla mulla ku konjam udambu mudiyala... neenga rendu perum kelambunga... nanga mudichitu varom..

K (concerned): Oi yena achu...

M : onum illa... vanga polam...

As he had already seen her tiredness and irritation from morning , kathir didnt question anymore... He got the house key and car key and left the place with mullai...

Off course jega,dheena and sankar could get what it could be.. They informed they will come by taxi when kathir offered to pick them back and asked him to proceed....

As they drove to home,

K : Oi...

M : hmmm...

K : yena achu... periods ah...

M : aamanga...

K : oh sari... napkin yellam iruka...

M : ilanga.. ipo yethir pakala... athunala yeduthutu varala...

K : sari vidu paravala... vangikalam...

He stopped near a medical shop and mullai tried to get down...

K : Oi... pesama ukaru... na poi vangitu varen... yena venum nu sollu...

M : neenga yepadi vanguviya... athelam venam... naan eh poren... kaasu kudunga...

K (stern voice) : pesama iru nu sonnen...

He mentioned few brands and asked what she uses regularly..
With a surprise face, mullai informed about her brand...
Kathir came back with the same...

They drove back home and mullai rushed to her room without a word... She took her time well and came out after a fresh bath with changed clothes and wet hair searching for kathir who was in the balcony...

M : yenga...

K : Oi vanthutiya... ipo konjam comfortable ah iruka...

M : hmmm ok nga... kulichathum ok...

K : appo sari... thalaiku yethuku kulicha... chumma udambuku uthina pothatha...

M : illanga thalaiku uthanun....

K : sari... thalaiya nalla thuvattu... vera yetha vanthuda poguthu...

M : hmmm saringa...

K : ne thuvatitu iru... na vanthudaren...

Mullai was so exhausted to ask where was he going.. She just nodded as ok...

Before she could see him again, she could smell coffee and there he came with his steady gait....

K : Oi intha coffee... vanthu kudi...

M (surprised) : neenga poteyala...

K : aama... thalai kaanjuducha...

M : oh...

K : sari room ku vaa...

Without waiting for her reply, he went to her bedroom... As mullai too joined him, he gave her the coffee as she sat on a chair...

M : yenga yepadi coffee poteya...

K : annike potten than eh....appuram yena...

M : anniki decoction irunthuchu...inga yepadi irukum...

K : instant coffee powder irunthuchu ... athula packet la eluthiruntha madhiri poten.. ok ah iruka...

M : super ah iruku... thanks nga..

K : pode....

M : ungaluku tea??

K : illa venam... ipo thevai padala... konja neram pogatum...

Truth is he doesn't know to prepare tea and he didn't want her to strain now just for making tea for him....

M : saringa... aama napkin brand yelam solriya... yepadi...

K : periods vantha moolai velai seiyatha.. ipadi oru kelvi kekare...

M : lollu than eh ungaluku...

K : pinna kadai la athelam vikkarom la athukuda theriyatha... veetuku annanga eduthutu povanga.. paathuruken... stock list poturuken...unna vida athigama theriyum enaku... yellathoda rate kuda theriyum....

M (sheepishly) : oh aama illa... maranthuten... aanalum poi vanga koochama illa...

K : namaku venugratha kettu vangarathuku yethuku koocham... nalaiki kalyanathuku appuram vera yetha vanganum na koochapatu ninna neeye enna thorathi thorathi adipe...(smirking)

M : yenanga vangarathuku... na yen adikanum... puriyala...

M : venamna vitudunga... kashtapatu enkuda onum iruka venam...

Mullai's eyes became moist...

K(confused) : Oi...yena chumma kindal ku sonna alare... inga paru.. sorry... inime solala... yena achu unaku...

M : paravala... vidunga...

K : athan sorry solren illla... sorry....

M : sorry yellam venamnga.. intha time la apadi than irukum... oru madhiri yerichala... athan... nanum sorry nga...

K : ada paravala... athan kalaila irunthu thotathuku yellam yerinju vilunthutu irunthiya... ipo than puriyuthu...

M : sorry nga... athu control pana mudiyathu... hormone fluctuations...

K : oh ho.. vidu... paravala palagikaren.. sari nee thoongu.. chummave rendu night ah thookam illa...travel vera... thirumba iniki poganum...

M : saringa...

As she pulled out a bed spread to place down,

K : yena panre...

M : bed la yellam paduka kudathunga.. athan kila padukaren...

K : yen paduka kudathu...

M : theettu achenga...

K : pesama mela padu... loose madhiri yetha pesikitu...

M : yenga ungaluku ithelam theriyathu... bed la elam paduka kudathu, saami room, kitchenku elam poga kudathu, koil ku poga kudathu, yaraiyum thoda kudathu... inum neraya iruku... inime therinjukonga....

M : apadi yelam illa.... neengala karpanai pani pesatheya...

K : thitaama...

M : sari sari vidunga... melaiye padukaren... neraya pesatheya...

K : yaaru naanu...athu sari....

Mullai retired to sleep in bed seeing kathir pulling out the curtains, grabbing the quilt and making things comfortable for her...

M : yenga...

K : hmm...

M : illa.. athu... ungaluku bore adikum ila.. tv paarunga.. athan sola vanthen..

K : oh aapadi aapadi...

M : aama...

K : athu sari.. malupaama yena sola vantha nu olunga sollu....

M : athu... thappa nenaikatheya... ingaye irukeyala enkuda... na ungala thoda kudathu than.. chumma konjam thalli inga...

She patted the place near her...

K : pesama padu... thevai ilama pesitu... na varen....

He left the room in a jiffy and came back with his mobile just to see her in tears...

K : yena de achu... yethuku alare ipo...

M : varen nu solitu poneya...

K : varen nu than eh solitu ponen... kadavule... mobile anga irunthuchu.. avanga kadaila irunthu kupitangana athan yeduka ponen... ithena ithukelam aluthutu...

M : thevai illama pesitu nu thitiniyale...

K : thoda kudathu nu sonna illa.. athuku apadi sonnen... yena de achu unaku...

M : oh sorry nga...

K : mudhala ne thoongu... na unkita than irupen.

He lied down cuddling her making her squirm...

M : neenga enna thoda kudathunga...

K : thaaye... thayavu senju ne thoongu.. ne pesarathelam ketta ne sonna hormone fluctuations enaku vanthudum pola....

She giggled at his irritated tone and funny words and tried to sleep...

M : yenga... itha pathi elam enkita pesa kashtama illaya...

K : suthama illa... nee than eh.... yen unaku kashtama iruka... na romba open ah pesarano...

M : open ah pesaregha.. aana kashtama illa... enakum neenga than eh...

K : appo sari... thoongu...

M : avalo than ah...

K : na yetha ketta ne thirumba arambippa.. periods time la ithelam kudathunga nu...thevai ah enaku...

M : romba thanga...

K : thoongu de... appuram pesalam...

M : hmmm saringa....

She hugged him tight as he started caressing her hair and slept peacefully. ..

Kathir never expected things to change in just one hour... He was extremely bored in shop was planning to ask her out for a drink alone but it changed to hours of togetherness.. He knew others would not reach here for another three hours... Its all their time till then..

Though he felt bad for her getting sick during travel , deep inside he liked this... He lied aside pushing her hair falling on her face, adjusting the quilt and adoring her innocence while sleeping.... He called up murugan and informed that she is ok and getting some sleep...

Kathir had absolutely nothing to do, was satisfied with good dose of admiration and was drowned by same less sleep nights... He too dozed off...

He woke up by his mobile after two hours... It was murugan on line...

K : hello.. solunga mama...

Mu : mapilla.. mullai elunthutala...

K : illaa mama.. thoongitu tha iruka... anga yellam mudinjutha

Mu : mudinjuthu mapilla...inga hotel ku vanthom...ungaluku sapida vangitu vantharalam nu than kupiten... yena venum nu sona vangitu vanthudarom...

K : yetho onnu mama... yethunallum paravala...

Mu : sari mapilla... nanga oru arai mani nerathula vanthudaren....

K : saringa mama...

Kathir turned to see mullai still sleeping at ease in his arms.. The call, the talks, his movements nothing seemed to disturb her...
He saw her with atmost love and zero lust though they were in close proximity than anytime...

K mindvoice : inime iva kuda night romba neram elam phone pesa kudathu... pathu manikula pesitu vechudanum... paavam thookam illama romba kashtapadara...

As he finished speaking to himself, he giggled at his own thoughts...

K mindvoice : neeyum pesa arambicha naal la irunthu ithaiye than solre... aana oru naal kuda phone ah vechathu illa.. yethuku intha vetti velai....

Azhagi...nalla thoongattum...

Kathir pecked mullai in her cheeks adoringly  and slipped out of the bed keeping a pillow in his place. He made his side of bed neat and took his wallet, mobile everything that he placed on sidetable before sleeping just not to leave any traces of him in that room...

He came downstairs and sat in the living room pretended to see mobile keeping the main door open...

TBC.....
