The birds were tweeting and flying
joyously to welcome the serene fall to New York City on a beautiful Monday morning after a relaxing weekend. A basic appearing home lies in a
peaceful residential area away from
the rush and bustle of the city, where a man in his forties was hanging an
antique wall clock by the wall.

Theeba(T): ENNANGA! 😑

That man jerks in response to his
beloved wife's yell and clutches his
chest in surprise.

Vijayan(V): Yen ma kathuna? 😥

T: Mani enna aagudhu unga ponnu innum bed-eh vittu nagarala. Semester holiday vittaalum vittanga iva alapara thaangala. 😤

V: Elupuna kadika varaa ma. 😢

T: Kadikiralaa? Iru di varen. 😤

Our heroine is resting soundly after a night of watching K-drama series
without being aware of the chaos
downstairs. Theeba walked into the room and
glanced at the duvet-covered sleeping
log. She didn't do anything, simply
turned off the fan and the air
conditioner and walked downstairs, a wicked grin on her face. 😈Theeba took a seat on the sofa and
began counting from one to ten. She
heard her gorgeous daughter scream
from upstairs before she finished
counting.

Sailaja(S): AMMAAAA!!!! 😠

Sailaja stormed down the steps,
muttering angrily.

S: Yen ma AC fan-ah adaicha!? 😤

T: Evlo neramdi thoonguve? Ennamo nethu andha pechu pesuna? Indha semester holidays mudiyura varaikum Sam payyan café-le work panna porenu? Ippa partha maadu madhiri thoongikittu irukke? 😤😑

S: Unakku naan thoongunale porukkadhule? 😭 Hmph eppayavadhudhan en darling Arjun Das kanavula varuvaru, adhayum keduthutte. Po ma. 😴😏

T: Maniya paaru poyi kulichittu ready aagi café-kku kelambu.

S: Kulikkanuma? 😐

T: Sudu thanni eduthu munjile uthiduven po di! 😶

To protect herself from her mother,
Sailaja dashed into her room. She
showered and prepared herself for
her first day at Samuel's café. After
double-checking that everything was
in order, she sat down to eat her
mother's breakfast.

T: Anga poyi olunga settai pannama nalla pillaiya velai seyyanum. Kudukkura kaasukku nalla table todaikkanum, seriya?

Sailaja swallowed her breakfast and
choked. Vijayan burst out laughing at his wife's remark.🤣 When his daughter glares at him,
he eventually comes to a halt. 🤐

S: Enna ma pesure? Oru cashier-ah work panna pora ponna parthu table todaikkaporenu solra. It is an insult. 😒

T: Unna nambiyadi andha payyan cash counter-le okkaara vechirukkan?

S: Appa paaru pa! 😭

V: Seri vidu ma. Nee saptutu seekiram kelambu, late agudhule.

T: Ahn solla marandhutten. Naanga rendu perum aprom oru function-kku porom night vara late aagum. Saavi flower vase keela irukkum, engeyum suthaama veedu vandhu seru.

S: Seri ma. 😊

Sailaja said her goodbyes to her
parents and began walking towards
Samuel's café after finishing her meal. Samuel's aim was to own a café,
which he eventually achieved. The
café just opened a few days ago and
has already garnered positive
feedback from residents in the
neighbourhood.
Sailaja was standing in front of the
café, staring at the entrance, intently
contemplating something. After sometime had passed, she dashed into the café.

S: SAMEYY!!! ENAKKU ORU DOUBT-U!!! 🤔🙄

Fortunately, Samuel did not drop the priceless red velvet cake that had only been prepared a minute before.

Sam: Yendi kathune!? 😨

S: Oru doubt-u. 🤔

Sam: ennadhu?

S: Adhu enna Kondailerow?

Sam: Kondailerow-ah? Apdina? 😑

S: Naan unna ketta loosu thirumbi enna kekkure. Adhu ennada café-kku kandraviya Kondailerow-nu peru vechirukke? 🙄 Yaar kondaile yaar row pottadhu? 🤔

Sam: Ada mala korange 🤦‍♂ adhu Kondailerow ille adhu Coin De La Rue apdina French-le street corner-nu meaning.

S: Café street corner-le illaiyam ana peru mattum street corner-am. 😏 (she murmured)

Sam: Kettichu kettichu. 😒 Seri customers vararadhukkulla andha plates-e thodachi vai.

S: Nnaadhu 😱 plate thodaikanuma?
Ennoda talent-kku naan cash counter-ledhaane okkaaranum, how can you do this to me? No no no i won't do that. 😑

Sam: Ivunga periya maharani, kaluthu melaiye poduven olunga poyi plate thodai aprom matha velai ellam seyyalaam. Ippa nee plate thodacha naan aprom chocolate souffle seyya solli kodupen.

S: Yaaay (clapping her hands) ok ok naan poyi plate thodaikkuren apromel olunga souffle panna sollikudu.

While Samuel chuckled at her cute
attics, she hurried into the kitchen
and began working. For Sailaja, the day had just flown by. She had a great time working at the
café. Samuel has been being killed by her inexhaustible supply of
unfounded doubts.

It was almost time for the café to
close, and Samuel and Sailaja were
cleaning it up.

Sam: Sailu epdi veetukku pove? Mazha vara maadhiri irukku.

S: Naan kodai vechirukken Sameyy naan nadandhe poren kavala padaadhe.

Sam: Are you sure? Naan venuna drop pannatta?

S: It's OK Sameyy, nee seekrama veetukku po I'll manage it. 😊

Sam: At least veedu varaikkumaavadhu varen.

S: Okayyy

Following the closure of the café,
Samuel and Sailaja strolled down the street to Sailaja's home.

Sam: Seri naan apdiye kelamburen, mazha vararadhukkulle veetukkulle po, bye bye! 🖐 Naalaikkavadhu time-kkulla café-kku vandhu seru. 😆

S: Poda! Bye Sameyy! 🖐

After saying her goodbyes to Samuel, Sailaja began walking down the street to her house before it began to rain.
But something stopped her, and she
turned to look at the playground
across the street. She noticed a man
seated on a bench near the fountain,
staring into the abyss of the
neighbouring woods. It began to pour. 🌧
