Good day, makkale. 😁

Déchets Et Trésor (Kuppaiyum Pudhaiyalum)

****

Sailaja has been in NYC for two weeks now. The enormous changes in her life overwhelmed Sailaja, yet she handled everything well with the assistance of the VAKS family. She misses everything in Rameswaram, but she is able to divert herself with daily Zoom calls.

Vikram, on the other hand, kept the same uncaring and bitter demeanour towards Sailaja, although his emotions played a different game. Vikram's brain sometimes causes him to show off about his wealthy life to Sailaja, but it quickly backfires when Sailaja replies with humour. Vikram also became possessive because his family treated Sailaja with great attention and did not even notice his existence.

Despite being on pleasant terms, Sailaja and Vikram never shared any intimate moments or even slept together with the pillow walls between them. They also took Sailaja on a tour of New York City's major attractions. Sailaja had a euphoric experience.

Sai: Aprom naanga Thakaliye apdiye andha manal thittule vittutu padagu valichikkittu vandhuttome. 😂

Vikram went inside his room and started changing his clothing.

Vik: Vitta nammale marandhuduvanga pola ivanunga ellam. Apdi enna magic-dhan indha Rameswaram ponnu vechirukkalo theriyale, apdiye thaanguranunga. 😏

Vikram was quiet for a minute.

Sai: 😁

Vik: Enna venum? 🤨

Sai: Ille dining table-le romba amaidhiya irundhinge, adhan edhachum pretchanaiya ille odambu seriyillaiyanu paarka vandhen. 😁

Vikram's heart felt warm when he realised Sailaja was also paying extra attention to him.

Vik: Onn....umille. Office poganum. 😒

Vikram took off his shirt.

Vik: Button pochi, indha shirt-eh thooki poturu naan vere shirt potukuren. 😒

Vik: Nee enna romba interrogation panre? 🤨

Vikram grabbed the shirt from Sailaja.

Vik: Nee help panlena enna, I have YouTube. 😒

Sai: 😐

Vikram took his phone and began scrolling through it.

Vik: 🧐📱 Ipdi suthi adhu ulle vittu thirumba edu....

Sai: Vaanga inge. 😊

Vik: Enna? 😒

Sai: Button theykka sollitharen. 😊

Vik: Onnum vendam. 😒

Sai: Ada rombadhan salichikiringe. 😝

Sailaja took the shirt and sat beside Vikram.

Sai: Inge paarunga, modha namma noole oosiyile korkanum. 😊🪡

Sailaja began teaching Virkam how to sew a button, but Vikram's attention was not yet there. Vikram was discretely admiring the simplicity and charisma of the woman seated next to him. The fact that she was sitting so near him caused turmoil in his heart.

Vik: 😌😳

Vikram received a jolt as Sailaja's shoulder rested against his.

Sai: Avlodhan mudinchi. 😊

Vik: Mothama mudinchi. 😳

Sai: Ennadhu? 🙄

Vik: Onn....umille onnumille. 😒

Sai: Paarthingala, button thechonaya epdi putham pudhu shirt madhiri aachinu. Idhe poyi thookipoda sollitinga. 😁

Vikram chuckled softly as he glimpsed Sailaja, running away.

Vik: Loosu ponnu. 😒

Vikram exited the cabin, and Kailayanathan took out the phone he was concealing under the table.

Kai: Ketiya? Nee pota bit-eh enakke poduran un purusan. 😂📱

Sai: 🤭
