Malar- "hmm", she blushed with pinky cheeks.

Sujan neared her a little closer and she leaned on his shoulder. Sujan hold her hands and pressed it. 

Malar- "ellam sariah poidum.. avangala kavalai ellam kadhal la maranchu poidum.. "

Sujan- "naanum apadi thaan nambitu iruken. aththu kannula kaneer vantha avana kondruven nu oru kalathula kathitu irunthaen. ipo aththu alugaiku avan thaan karanam nu therinja piragum avanuku support ah nikka thudikaren.. epadio manasula ninutaan avan". He chuckled.

In the evening, Everyone assembled in Siddhik's apartment waiting for Sanjeev. 

Siddhik- "epo varen nu solirukaaru?"

Sujan- "inum 10 mins la vanthiduvaru"

Pragyan- "avaru matuma?"

Sujan- "wife varuvanga nu sonaru.. avaroda wife um saernthu thaan case ellam handle panuvangalam"

Pragyan- 'kuduthu vacha manushan"

Priyanka- "naan venumna FM station la ethavathu vela irukaanu pakava?"

Pragyan- "vendam.. avaruku avanga wife help panuvanga.. aana, nee vantha naan en velaiah vitutu unna pakura mathiri agidum", he mocked.

Priyanka- "unaku en thiramai ah pathi theriala..", she pouted and turned aside.

Logan- "athane, apadi sollu ma.. nee enna pannu, nalaiku enga company ku interview ku vaa.. un thirmaiah nana pakuren. apuram namma senthu ivana kalaikalam"

Priyanka- "interview vaa? unga complany laya?", She asked shockingly and turned towards Pragyan. Pragyan chuckled. 

Vinay- "nee vaa Priya, kandipa unaku velai kidaichudum. naanga porupu"

Priyanka blinked and said, "appo kandipa velai kidaichuduma..". she asked sadly.

Logan- "unaku velai vendama?", He teased

Priyanka- "venum thaan. aana ipo vendam". She said with a get caught look. 

Everyone looked at her with a shock. Siddhik giggled. Athulya raised her eyebrows at him questioningly. She knows that he must be the reason with his gesture itself.  Siddhik blinked at her once. 

Siddhik- "Priya, nee velaiku ponalum, pogalainaalum kandipa inum one year la unna ponnu ketu vanthiduvom.. velaiku polaina thaan varuvom nu ninaikatha.. athu anaiku ,prajju kita avana othuka vaikurathukaga pesinathu". 

Others bite their lips to control their smile. Pragyan blushed and looked down. Priya gave him a worried look. 

Priyanka- "athu enna one year? ipove kekalame anna?", she said with a worried genuine tone. Everyone smiled at her love. Pragyan rubbed his nape not knowing how to react. 

Siddhik - "inga vaa Priya" She neared him and sat next to him. 

Siddhik caressed her head and said, " avanuku inum one year la promotion vanthidum daa. salary um increase agum. un parents ku oru expectation irukum la avanga ponnuku vara pora mapla ipadi ellam irukanum nu.. avangalum santhosama unaku kalyanam panni vaikanum la..".

Priyanka- "appa amma othukita thaan kalyanama? nee engaluku kalyanam panni vaika matia anna? ragu sonane nee pani vaipanu..", She asked him with full of expectation in her eyes. 

Siddhik- "unga kalyanam en porupu thaan, avangalum iruntha nalla irukumla. Priya nalla ponnu, appa amma ku pudicha ponnu. athoda Priya ku ava appa amma va romba pudikum la.. athaan, avangalaium samathanam panni kalyanam panni vaikalam nu iruken.. un kalyanam nadakum pothu appa amma illainu apuram nee aluga koodathula athaan. "

Priyanka - "naan athellam aluga maten. pattu pudavai matum konjam weight illama , kallu kuthama eduthu thaanga, athu pothum. athu kuthina thaan alugai varum. "

Everyone chuckled with her innocent answer. Indeed she is different from everyone. She is brought in a very different way by her parents. They had her in their hands it seems. 

Vinay- "appo appa amma varalaina aluga matiah?"

Priyanka- "athellam aluga maten. avanga summa veembuku pesuvanga, aana vanthiduvanga.  enaku olunga oru function kae ready aga theriathu ama thaan thiti thiti kilapuvanga. ithu valakam thaan, athunala thititae marriage ku vanthiduvanga"

Karthik- "appo unaku thappu pani palagiduchu avangaluku thiti palagiduchunu sollu.."

Priyanka- "atha apadium solalam anna.. apadiyae manikavum palagitanga"

Logan- "appo daily nee kilamburathu ellam.. amma va miss panriah?"

Priyanka- " illa . malar akka solli tharanga anna. ivanga en amma voda photo copy mathiri nadanthukuranga.. but thitama konji konji soluvanga.. keka nalla irukum.. prajju ku kooda avlo konja theriathu.. Sujan anna koduthu vachavanga.."

Malar- "Priya..". Everyone laughed. 

Priyanka- "apadi solla koodathu nu sonnala , maranthutaen ka.. Prajju ku theriala nu thaan solla vanthaen..."

Athulya- "athu ellam nee enna venalum namakulla solalam.. akka vidunga ka namma thane. irunthalum neenga sujju mela konjam parithaba padalam", she teased. 

Priyanka- "itha thaan nanum solluven. en pecha yaaru kekura?". 

Malar looked down unable to handle the teasing. everything is new for her. Priyanka didn't understand her feel and continued. But Rakshan understood malar. 

Rakshan- "nee than konjaen da prajju, thangatchi ma asai paduralla..", He intentionally changed the topic to save Malar. 

Pragyan- "anna summa irunga anna. ithukae intha paadu, inum naan konjina avlo thaan"

Priyanka- "enna salichukitu solra appo nee muntha nethu konjiniyae athu entha kanakula varum? athe pola...", She continued by counting her fingers. 

Pragyan rushed to her and closed her mouth. Everyone laughed at them. Siddhik looked at Pragyan.

 Pragyan- 'anna, athu interview nalla pananum nu thaan..."

Siddhik- "ithuku ellama karanam solluva lusu.. poda", He beat his back and giggled. 

Pragyan dragged Priyanka with him and moved aside. Athulya laughed while everyone giggled. 

Athulya- "enaku prajju va ipadi paaka pudichuru.. nalla mulikuraan matikitu", She said whole heartedly. 

At the same time, Sanjeev and Durga entered the house. Everyone stood up welcoming them. 

Siddhik- "hello sir, I am Siddhik."

Sanjeev- "hi Siddhik, I am Sanjeev. She is my wife, Durga"

Siddhik- "hello Madam"

Durga- "hello mini jesus"

Siddhik- "jesus?", he asked him with a questioning look.  

Durga- "aduthavanga enna panalum manikuravangala naanga jesus nu soluvom.. neenga ellam specially made product theiruma. anegama brahman time illama, 400 bc aala alter pana maranthu poi apadiyae marupadium ipo padaichutaru pola..". 

Siddhik blink at her not knowing what to say. He smiled then. 

Sanjeev glared a little and said, "silvandu ipo than vanthirukom..". 

Durga- "chuma oru compliment thaan Jeeva..". Sanjeev opened his mouth to say something but Athulya interrupted. 

Athulya- "super nga, enaku unga compliment romba pudichuruku.. Naan Athulya, ivar ennoda husband."

Durga and Athulya hugged each other casually. Sanjeev blinked at Durga. She is jovial but hugging other is not her cup of tea. Sanjeev felt that Durga is having some affection with Athulya. Everyone then introduced themselves. 

Sanjeev- "enaku call pannathu.."

Pragyan- "naan thaan sir. enga show ku vanthirukeenga. ena gnabagam iruka?"

Sanjeev- "una epadi maraka mudium. you took that show very well. Controversy ah illama, romba personal ahvum illama, different ah knowledgeable ah athe samayam comedy ah host paniruntha.. i am very impressed. unnpola oru than thaan venum.."

Pragyan -"thanks sir, intha problem ah neenga than solve pani tharanum.. please."

Sanjeev- "Naan pathukaren. okay ipo case pathi pakalam, ipo antha center la yaaru work panitu iruka?"

Vinay, Logan, Malar, Priyanka went to cook dinner. 

Sujan- "naan than sir. apuram ennoda senior guide Rakshan. avaru epovavathu thaan varuvaaru"

Sanjeev- "okay. Karthik ungaluku hacking theriumla?"

Karthik- "yes"

Sanjeev- "ippo centre la irukura ella CCTV footages um hack panunga..". Karthik nodded and started his work. Pragyan went and joined others in kitchen. 

Sanjeev- "First anaiku nadantha sambavatha eduthupom. athula ethavathu clue kidaikutha nu pakalam.. Raskhan, neenga thane Deepika inject panrathuku munnadi Project details ah mathinathu?"

Rakshan- "yes sir. starting la iruntha avanoda failure project ah eduthu mathi vachaen."

Sanjeev- "intha project start panum pothe neenga moonu peru thane iruntheenga?"

Siddhik- "therium. ovoru attempt kum, proper ah gugan sir kita sign vanganum.. six months ah paninen ella progress um enga moonu perukum therium. neraiah failure attempts ku apuram thaan intha project 90% success koduthathu"

Sanjeev- "so, fully completed project illa, apadi thane"

Siddhik- "therium Mam. inum konjam work iruku 90% completed project nu solli thaan anupinaen"

Sanjeev- "Rakshan neenga phone la pesum pothu, Deepika ku project knowledge kidaiyathu so project marinathu kooda theriama, details ah follow panni patient ku inject panita nu sonenega"

Rakshan- "yes sir."

Durga- "90% matum thaan complete agirukunu therium thane.. project knowledge illama irukalam but fully complete agatha project ah prepare panni patient kita test panna koodathunu koodava theriathu"

Rakshan left out a long breathe and said, "therinjirukum Mam. Already rendu thadava 98% complete ana project kooda failure aagi naanga thirumba first la irunthu start pannirukom.. She knows that.."

Sanjeev- "what is your opinion Siddhik?"

Siddhik- " I dont know sir."

Durga- "dont know? really?", She widened her eyes and asked. 

Siddhik- "yes Mam. enaku unmaikum poikum vithayasam theriathu.. ethu nadipunu kandu pudika theriathu.. Rakshan will say that"

Sanjeev- "yaar nadikuranga, yaar unmaiah irukanganu theriama epadi oruthara nambuveenga? neenga oru proffessor, do you think your answer is right?"

Siddhik- "May be. I trust my wife sir. I depend on her to believe people. ava pathupa."

Durga- "itha auto pinnadiyae eluthalamae pa.. ". 

Sanjeev- "silvandu". 

Durga blinked, smiled sheepishly and then turned towards Karthik, "Karthik  hacking mudinchatha? connect paniteengala?"

Karthik- "panitaen mam"

Sanjeev looked at the screen and then said, "Rakshan and Siddhik. anaiku nadanthatha sollunga, I mean entha roomla irunthu epadi nadanthathunu.."

Siddhik looked at Athulya. Athulya smiled and nodded her head. 

Durga- "Dialogue ellam theva illa boss. marupadium sentiment scene ellam otta vendam. neenga just, naan antha room la ninaen.. intha room ah vitu odina.. naan pudichu iluthaen. antha guagai sorry sorry gugan vanthutan nu matum sollunga.. athu pothum la Jeeva?"

Sanjeev looked at her with folded hands. 

Durga- "meendum meendum na bore adikum Jeeva, dialogue venumna naalu scene munnadi poi paathuta poguthu.. thirumbium sonna enaku alugai vanthudum Jeeva. unaku theriumla enaku alugaina allergy nu.. "

Everyone giggled at the way she said. 

Sanjeev chuckled and said, "okay details matum sollunga"

Rakshan and Siddhik started to say everything. Siddhik told everything without any hesitation and emotionless voice. It is evident that he has come out of the guilt. Once done Karthik ended the hacking. 

Sanjeev- "Sujan, neenga neraiah peroda pattern rights kanum nu sonenegalla? epo check paneenga? epadi therinjathu?"

Sujan- "enaku intha project assign pannum pothu thaan check panen. pothuva oru project edukum pothu first atha already panavangala contact panni details kaepom. aduthu namma ath modify panalam nu ninaikum pothu namma try panra formula la irukura reactions yerkanave yaravathu panirukangala nu check panuvom.. apadi check panum pothu sila perodathu miss aachu"

Durga- "neenga atha antha project pannavanga kita sollalaya? unga pattern rights poiduchu nu.."

Sujan- "illa mam. avanga yarum ipo center la work panala"

Sanjeev- "yaen panala?"

Sujan- "theriala sir. personal problems nala relieve agitatha thaan sonanga.."

Durga-"athu epadi athana perkum personal problem varum Jeeva? corona mathiri"

Sanjeev- "visaripom silvandu" There is a prevailed silence in the room. 

Durga- "Jeeva enaku oru doubt". Everyone looked at her. 

Sanjeev- "enna silvandu?"

Durga- "ippo saptutu room ku poga poroma? illa anga poi order panika poroma? late aachu Jeeva pasikuthu.. inga sapade pudikala Jeeva, seekrma solve panidu. "

Sanjeev calmly said, "saptutae pogalam. un choice thaan"

Everyone looked between themselves. Athulya and Siddhik exchanged glances. 

Durga- "night video call panren nu solirunthaen. un paiyan thedavae matikuraan"

Sanjeev- "namma paiyan", he said in a strict tone. 

Durga- "haan, haan.. namma paiyan theda matikuraan ipo okay vaa". Sanjeev giggled. 

Athulya and Siddhik exchanged glances. There is an expectation in Athulya's eyes.  

Siddhik- "if you dont mind, ingayae thangareengala? enga veetu sapadu ungaluku pudikalam"

Vinay- "ellarukum sethu thaan samaichirukom sir". 

Pragyan- "veetu sapadu nalla irukum sir, oru thadava try panni paarunga"

Priyanka- "amam, ragu samayal asathala irukum.. aana epovachum thaan samaipaan"

Everyone chuckled and waited for their answer. Sanjeev and Durga looked at each other.
