A familiar voice was heard by the baby....it was Mullai.... She has done it many times...while she was in the backyard..she has spoken to the baby many days....

And that's how she calls her " bujji ma...chella kutty" everytime they meet...

She interacts with the baby...everytime she gets a chance while she is in the backyard... daily... So of all the people the baby found Mullai's voice to be familiar...

Mullai went close to D and called the baby again.....she immediately stopped and started looking for Mullai and as she neared the baby instantly reached out to her..

With love she grabbed the baby from D...and D did not have a choice but to give in

D: ei epdi unta vandhuta...

Ka: azhugayum nirthutheeruchu paarunga

J Mo n Me were at awe as well

M: as she got the baby.... Kutty chellam azha koodathu....Enna venum unakuu..she cradled her in her hand

Adhuu Akka naan dhinamum ivala pinnadi pogumbodhu pathu pesuvean..vilayaduvean

Adhan avalukku paritchayamana kural nu enta vandhuta...

Illa da chellam...naanga dhinamum vilayaduvom illa.....

Lamma: appada ...ippo dhaan nimadhiya irukku

J: Appa mazha penju onjaapula iruku

Ka: ama illa...shabbbaaaa

Me: uffffffff......

Mullai settles down near the pillar with the baby...in her lap...

Mo: enna di ipdi dhideernu vandhu pullaya kuduthutu poiyta Kala...

D: adhaan mama onnum puriyala..Ava Andha pakkam ponadhum ipdi azha arambichuruchu...onnumae odala...

J: dei kanna Enna konja nerathula kanna kateeruchu pola..

J: dei chumma iru da....edhayadhu kilapikittu

Me:nee vaanga pora da...

It took a good ten minutes after the baby settled for all to come back to their senses

Ka: appo iniku plan avlo dhaana..mudincha

D: Enna mama...

Mo: vaadi..iva oruthi...dei kanna jeeva vangada polam..Meena vapa

Ka: ahnnn polam nae

Me:.seri mama....as a chamathu pillai

Every one leaves and D is very skeptical about leaving..

D: Mullai ipdi takkunu engala poga soleetiyae..neeyum evlo aasaya kilambina

M: Akka adhunala Enna Ka..innoru naal pona pochu

Idhellam prechanaya...poitu vaangaka nimmadhiya

D: Ennavo Mullai..manasu kekala... seri nan varean pathuko...edha irundhalum phone pannu...

While she reaches the door Jeeva is dialling a number....

D: dei yaarkuda

J: Anni...adhu Kathirku phone potu Vara sollalamnu.... Andha pulla thaniya epdi chamalikkum...

D: amam da..nan nenachanean... kathir ah veetuku Vara soleeru da

As J calls kathir...others get into the car...

Mo asks Meena to sit in the front as they want to ensure she is seated comfortably..

K picks call from J

K: Anne idho Vela mudinjuchu.. kilambeetean

He is under the assumption they are calling him to come soon

J: dei nee kadaila irukiya...vazhilaya...

K: kadailerndhu kilmabarean nae..sollu

Mo calls jeeva to get into the car...

J: Anne oru nimisham...pesitu

Mo: dei car la eri pesuda...apdiyae pesi kittae polam

Ka: annae erunae modhella

Me: dei seekiram eruda...

J: kathiru ..iruda...

He gets into the car...and hands over the mobile to D as he needs to drive

And he starts driving.....

K: on the other hand hears all these and assumes that they have already started, so he will be asked to come in the bike..

He is a little annoyed ..his plans were totally collapsing... The flowers he bought...and his urge to meet Mullai everything is getting distorted.... But he remains calm to hear from them

D: dei....kathiruu

K:Sollunga Anni...

D: Dei kathiru...Naanga ippodhaan kilmabinom.....Nee veetuku po

K: he is a little confused why she didn't say... "Pinnadi bike la vanthuru"

He is not sure how to ask...

Anni....

D: amam da...pakathu vee .....t.....u....l

The signal is not good.... He doesn't hear half of what she speaks...

Athaiya......pa...Ka......aal....illa.... Adhun....aalla

K: he couldn't understand any bit...

Mo: veetuku poooooooooooo

K: veetuku pogava....

Mo: ammm ammmm ammma mmmmm

K: seri nae... He didn't get what exactly is happening but he assumed he will get to know from his mom at home..

And he dechipered what he heard as ....his mom needs someone to attend to ...so go home ...mullai is there with them...there is no help from the neighbours..

He had a 1000 questions running...but couldn't find any cues on what could have happened... But he knows he can reach home to get answers or may be call them back from there.....

He worried a lot thinking about Mullai.... He knows she must be clearly upset... He assumed she has left with the family..

K: naan epdi varean ...epdi polamnu aasaya ketala..... avanga kooptadhum poirupalo..

Hmmm Ava Enna pannuva....ivangalam vaa nu sonna...epdi maruka mudiyum...

Ana naan seekirma veetuku varalanu nu kova patrupalo... Manasu kasta pattu poirupalo....

He starts home quickly with umpteen questions , amidst a turmoil of disappointments, emotions and feelings for Mullai..❤️❤️
