*Kathir in that Room far away from Her : 2.30am – 3.00am(ish)*

M : Nee vaa..neethaan venum..

K : Argh! Mullai!..Mullai!... Kollereyedi! Kollehkaari!

He looked at the time and it was 3.00am and he couldn't even blink his eyes thinking of her..of what she said. There's no way he was going to get any sleep now after all that just happened. So he did the only logical thing any man would do at times like this.

Go to her!

He got up in a flash, got dressed and ran down the stairs, without any plans of course, but he will find a way. Then, he bumped into a big burly object standing at the foot of the stair.

Driver Anneh : Paatupa paatu.... .athukulleh kelembithe poleh....unneh paakeh thaan vanthen..

K :Athu...athu..illeh'neh...velehneya kelembanumnu.... athaan..kelembiten... ungge kitte sollithu polamnu nenechen aana mani..hmm..athan phoneleh message panniten'neh...athu..

He stuttered beyond his own believe, why was he blabbering so much?

Driver Anneh : seri seri...purithu pa... naanum unneh elupulamnu thaan mele vanden..paata neeye keele vareh...

Kathir avoided looking at either of them, stood there blushing to the roots of his hair because everything she said was true, word by word.

K Mindvoice : tho...manam kappal mele poghuthu...potum potum... unmei thane... 3 mani'ku vaa mama'nu kuptha..naanum poren..hmmm hehehe..yenn pondatti kuptha poven... kolehkari!

K mindvoice : innore kappal'leh irukure konjum nanjam manam'um podhu..

Both the husband and wife were having a great time teasing the restless blushing lover boy who couldn't wait to see his wife. He wasn't even standing still, there's a constant spring in his steps, waiting to run to her if possible.

DAW offered steaming hot coffee and he drank it fast and it burned his lips.

DAW : ayo paatu thambi! Soodhe pa..meduva oodhi kudi.. hmm enna pa nee...rombe sutherecha?

K : ehehe..illeh ka..athu gavanikileh..athan... paraveleh..

DAW : hmm... Kathir.. Mullai... pere'leyeh jodi poruthum tookethede! Hehehe...seri Seekaram ungge marumaganu'kuh ore moreh ponnu ready pandre veleyeh paarungge...

He looked at her questioningly, slightly confused at what she was referring to.

Driver Anneh : engge maganeh solra pa...enneke 4 vayasuleh payan irukan.....Satish... aven ippoh ooreleh taata paati kude irukan...

K : oh..

After a while, someone came to came to give the key and both the men bid goodbye.

Driver Anneh : Seri di..varen...ulleh po...pani'leh rombe neram nikkathe..

K : ka'..varum ka..ellathukum thanks..

DAW : thaambi... unggele paataduleh sandosam...innoru vaathi varumpodhu, Mullai'yum koothithu vaange. Apparum yenn marumaghe... maranderadingge....hahaha.. athuku thaan coffee kudethadu...veetuku poi toongiradingge! Paavum Mullai..kaathukithu irupanggeleh..hehehe

She made him blush all over again. The husband, laughed out loud and rode the bike to the location of the lorry.

With the wind, blowing in his face, his heart fluttered at the thought of being with her again. The thought of hugging her...kissing her...just holding her in his arms...inhaling the smell of her hair...feeling the velvety softness of her skin...

K Mindvoice : Mullai! Nee kupthe naa varameh irepenah?..varen... Maman varan di!
