Hello, makkale! 😁

Brume Infinie (Infinite Mist)

****

(1st January, Somewhere in Madhikettan Solai)

The densely forested highlands were so calm that only bird chirpings could be heard in the faraway distance. The dense forest was blanketed with a never-ending mist, sending a cool breeze through it.

A young lady with flowing hair and a white flower on her left ear walks through the gloomy forest, holding an earthenware pot. She embodies natural beauty and innocence while also wearing a milk-colored saree with a red border in a distinctive way.

(Saree style like from Kumki movie. 😜)

She arrived at a gorgeous waterfall in a remote region in the forest. Water was falling from the tall stones to the shallow lake at the bottom, which had crystal pure water.

She sat beside the pabble-filled lake and began to wash her the pot and gather some water in it. Suddenly, she heard a sound in the misty forest, prompting her to turn around.

🙎‍♀️: 🙄

There was no one there, but she smiled mischievously since she knew who that sneaky peaky fellow was.

🙎‍♀️: Dey Chellam, enna velaiyattu en kooda? 😜

There was complete silence.

🙎‍♀️: Cheri nee porathukku varamatte pola, naan pinnale velaiyada polamnu nenaichen. Naan agathulaye irukkaporen. 😏

She took her pot and went to leave, but was startled to see a large creature standing in front of her.

🙎‍♀️: Athey! Chellam! Ipdiya pinnale ninnu bayam kaatuve? 😝

Chellam made a massive roar with its trunk, which reverberated throughout the misty jungle.

🐘: 😁

(I have upgraded Chellam the doggy from my previous story to Chellam the yaanai 🤣)

🙎‍♀️: Enna nee thaniye chuthikittu irukke? Unakku idhe choliya pochi, cheri vaa namma agathukku pogonam. 😁

🐘: 😁

They both began walking across the jungle while the woman casually talked with Chellam.

🙎‍♀️: Hey, anguttu paaren. 🙄👆

🐘: 🙄

A leopard casually walked past them.

🙎‍♀️: Paarthiya indha Chinnasamiye nammale kandukamale thimira poran. 😏

🐘: Avan vaale anniki midhichipoten adhen gaandule poran. 😜

🙎‍♀️: Cheri nee vaa. 😏

They continued travelling through the deep forest till they reached the village. The village was enchanting, modest, and blanketed in cold mist, with wooden huts. The atmosphere was lively, and everyone appeared to be having a good time. They were all wearing the same milk-colored fabric with a red border. Some wild creatures can be noticed roaming freely around the village, as if nothing is unusual.

👩‍🦱: Kuyili mavale, engedi pone? Un aatha nee kaanomnu ore aarpaatam pannita. 🙄

🙎‍♀️: Indha aathavukku vere choliye ille, cheri en appan enguttu? 🙄

👩‍🦱: Puliyeru thambi en agathukararode thaen eduthutu vara poyirukku nee verava agathukku po.

(Vijayan's house)

In the wooden house, Kuyili was preparing meals by starting a fire with twigs.

Kuy: Indha Papathi pullaikku konjamkooda poruppe ille, oru kodam thanni eduthutu vara imbuttu kaalam. Oru kaataye chuthittu varradhu. 😒

Papathi (Pavithra Lakshmi): Ennathov thaniya monavikitu irukke? 🤭

🐘: 😁

The: Unga renduperukkum oor chuthuradhe choliya pochile? Velaile agathukku varradhille, ellam un appane chollanum. 🤨

Nit: Povathov rombadhen thitture. 😝

(Same day, Rameswaram)

As the sun rose high in the sky, the wind blew air across the ocean to the shore. A bicycle was travelling on the route along the sandy shoreline. It was a young woman with free hair dressed in a half saree.

The bicycle soon arrived at the location with the large board saying Karunai Illam. She halted her bicycle and cautiously entered Karunai Illam.

👵: Sailaja! 🤨

Sailaja (Sivaangi): Pochi! Pochi vasama maatnom. 😬

The elderly woman in the saree approached Sailaja.

👵: 🤨

Sai: Good afternoon, Sister Mariam. 🫡

Mariam grabbed Sailaja's ear and began twisting it.

Sai: Ah! Ah! Valikkidhu! 🤪

Mar: Ismail Bhai veetu compound sevuru eri avaru veetu marathulendhu puliyanga thirudurele? 🤨

Sai: Abandamana poy! Yaar ipdi ennepathi purali kelappuradhu? 🤪

Mar: Aaga renduperum serndhudhan thiruda poyirukkinge, ille Zurich? 🤨

Zurich (Sakthi): Ketappaye andha Bhai kuduthurundha naanga yen thridapporom? 😅

Mar: Ennadhu? 🤨

Mar: Nee oru teacher nee oru forest ecologist. Adhukku ethamadhiri konjamachum poruppa nadandhukka koodadhu? Ungale paarthu illathule irukkura pillainga ellam kettuporanga. 🤨

Sai & Zur: 😁

Mar: Ponga renduperum, new year annikkum edhachum alapparai panradhu. 😒🚶‍♀️

Sai & Zur: 😁

Mariam turned and went away.

Sai: Poyitangala? 🙄

Zur: Aama Thalaivi. 🙄

Sai: Vaa vaa andha poruppaali enna panrannu paarkalam. 😏

They both approached a room and barged open the door.

Samuel (Sam Vishal): Amma! 😱

Sai & Zur: 🤨

Sam: Edhukku ipdi bayamuruthuringe!? 🤪

Zur: Nee enna avlo periya paruppa? 🤨

Sam: Ennadhu? 🤪

Sai: Sister Mariam apdiye pugazhuranga, poruppana paiyan paruppu kadainja kaiyannu. 🤨

Sam: Unmaiya sonna unakku vayiru eriyudha elikuji? 😝

Sai: Yen sollamate, nee sonnenudhane puliyanga thirudunen. 😏

Sam: Eduthu vandhiya? 🤩

Sai: 😁

She opened a tiny basket and dropped all of the tamarinds onto the bed.

Sam & Zur: 🤩

Three of them sat on the bed, each taking a tamarind.

Zur: Vaanga vaanga indha varushathukkana sathiya pramaanam pannanum. 😁

They lifted their tamarinds into the air.

Sai: Elikunji Thalaivi aagiya naan! 😁

Zur: Thakali chedi aagiya naan! 😁

Sam: Sambumavan aagiya naan! 😁

Sai, Zur & Sam: Ekkaranathirkondum enakku vaaytha rendu saniyangalai vittu piriya maatom! Idhu Ismail Bhai veetu thiruttu puliyangaay meedhu aanai! 😁

They devoured on sour tamarinds.

Sai, Zur & Sam: 😖😋

Sai: Dey Sambumavane, ketkanumnu nenaichen Thanjore excavation team-le join pannanumnu sonniye ennachida? 😁

Sam's face sank.

Sai & Zur: 🙄

Zur: Ennachida? 🙄

Sam: Naan orutharkitte email pannenle, avaru nethu sethupoyitaru. Murder pannitangalam. ☹️

Sai & Zur: 🤣
