CHAPTER 30

Mullai's Office

Sivanya was discussing with her co-workers when Mullai barged into the office and directly walked to her cabin ignoring her staffs. Everyone was shocked with Mullai's behaviour as they have never seen her behaving like this. They started to get scared thinking that they have done something wrong. Sivanya calmed them.

Sivanya: Neengge poyi velaiye paarungge. Naan akka kitte pesuren. (They agreed and continued to do their work. Sivanya entered Mullai's cabin and walked towards her. She gulped down her fear and placed her hand on Mullai's shoulder. Mullai turned to her and hugged her making her startled.) Akka, enna aachi?? Ethavathu problem ah?? (She could hear sobbing sound from Mullai.) Yen ka aluvuringge?? Unggale yaaru enna pannina?? Sollungge undu illei'nu pannidren!! En Mullai akka've ale vechittanggala?? Yaaru'nu sollungge, ka. (Mullai broke the hug and sobbed like a kid.)

Mullai: Naan thappu pannitten, Sivanya.

Sivanya: (confused) Athukku ethukku aluvuringge?? Thittina adicha thane aluvanum. Thappu pannina aluvanggala enna?? (Mullai sobbed again.) Sari, alugathingge. Enna thappu pannuningge??

Mullai: Naan avughale thittitten.

Sivanya: (confused) Yevughale??

Mullai: Dhaadikaarare.

Sivanya: Kathir anna've ya?? (Mullai nodded in guilt.) Athukku avaru thane aluvanum. Neengge yen aluvuringge??

Mullai: Avughale thittittenu enakku guilty'ah irukku.

Sivanya: Yen thittiningge?? (Mullai told her whatever happened.) Ellam nithanama yosichi seiyure aalu neengge. Neengge appadi pesirukkalama?? Pesum pothu vaarthaiye paarthu pesanum'nu yen amma sollirukkangge. Neenggalum athethan solluvingge. Varthaiya kottina alle mudiyathu'le.

Mullai: Naane appadi pesuven'nu ethir paakale. Anthe kannadi odenjittone, enakku….

Sivanya: Photo'ku ethuvum aagale'le, ka?? (Mullai shook her head in negative.)

Mullai: Photo'ku ethuvum aagale. Kannadithan odenjiruchi. Athan bayanthutten.

Sivanya: Bayanthuttinggala?? Yen??

Mullai: Kannadi odenja nallathu illei'nu solluvaghe. Athan.

Mullai: Eppadi kekkurathu'nu teriyale, Sivanya.

Mullai: Enkitte avughe number illeye.

Sivanya: Suththam!! Sari vidungge vidungge. Neengge kavalai padame irungge. (She wiped Mullai's tears.) Ungge rendu pereyum SERTHU VEKKE VENDIYATHU EN PORUPPU. Ellam naan parthukiren. Fresh flowers engagement'ku vendum'nu sonninggale. Ippove order panninathan engagement kullare kidaikkum. Naan nera poyi order pannidren. Neengge ingge relaxed ah irungge. (Mullai nodded and Sivanya left from there.)

Kathir and Kannan were standing in front of a shop waiting for JM who went to buy things for Lakshmi. Kathir is lost in his thoughts. Kannan snapped his finger on Kathir's face.

Kannan: Enna?? Mullai anni pathi yosikkiraya??

Kathir: Avale eppadi samathanam paduthurathu'nu yosikkiren.

Kannan: Mannippu ketiru.

Kathir: Athu pathathu, da. Vere ethavathu pannanum.

Kannan: Enna panne pore??

Kathir: Athethan yosichikittu irukken. (They heard a voice calling 'Kathir anna'.)

Kannan: Anne, yaaro oru paapa Kathir anna'nu kupidure mathiri irukku. Aana unakkuthaan thanggachi illeye. (Kathir glared at him and turned towards the voice.)

Sivanya was waiting for the auto when she noticed Kathir at the opposite of the road. She crossed the road and walked towards Kathir whose back is facing her.

Sivanya: Kathir anna!! (Kathir took some time before turning towards her. She waved at him.) Hi!!

Kathir: (smiled) Hey, Sivanya!! Nee enna inthe pakkam??

Sivanya: Oru chinna velaiya vanthen. Neengge ingge enna pannuringge??

Kathir: Engga annan anni kadaikku poyirukkangge. Avughalukku wait pannittu irukkom.

Sivanya: Hi, anna!!

Jeeva: Hi!!

Sivanya: Enakku time aayiruchi!! Appurom paakalam. (She stopped an auto and left from there.)

Malar's Cafe

Malar introduced Vinay to her workers.

Malar: Ivaru super'ah samaipparu. Ingge sila recipes kude ivaru solli kuduthathuthaan. Ivaru oru continental king.

Vinay: Appadi ellam illei. Enakku cooking rombe pudikkum. Athan eppothum different'ah try pannuven.

Malar: Sari. Mani, ivare kitchen kootitu pongge. Naan oru phone call pannittu vanthudren. Vinay, ithu namma cafe. So thayanggathingge. Mani unggalukku help pannuvangge. (Vinay nodded and followed Mani.)

Sivanya came to Malar's cafe after a while looking for Malar who is not there at the counter. She looked around when Malar came out from the kitchen.

Malar: Hey, Sivanya!! (Sivanya smiles at her.) Ippothan unakku call pannanum'nu ninaichikkittu irunthen.

Sivanya: Yen, ka??

Malar: Sari, Mullai eppadi irukka??

Malar: Enna yosikkire??

Sivanya: Onnu kekkanum. Aana unggakitte kekkalama vendama'nu yosikkiren.

Malar: Onnu kelu illena kekkathe. Rendeyum potu theliva kulappathe.

Sivanya: Ketudren. Athu vanthu….. (She thought of something and clapped her hands.) Akka, thank you, ka!! Kedechiruchi!!

Malar: (confused) Ethukku thank you?? Enna kedechiruchi?? (Sivanya didn't bother about her question and scrolled something on her mobile. She jumped looking at something and called someone through her mobile. Vinay came with Mani bringing a dish.)

Vinay: Malar anni, inthe dish taste panni paarungge. (Malar tasted the dish.) Eppadi?? Ok va??

Malar: Mmm!! Super!!

Vinay: Thanks, anni. Innoru dish irukku. Naan eduthuttu varen. (He went to the kitchen. Sivanya ended the call after smelling the food. She walked towards Malar and looked at the plate.)

Mani: Iva inggethan irukkala??

Sivanya: Akka, ithenna puthu item'ah?? Paakurathukku super'ah irukku!! Enakku konjom. (Vinay returned bringing another dish. Sivanya was mesmerized looking at him.) Akka, ivaru enna puthu samayalkaarara?? (Vinay is shocked to hear the word from her while Malar and Mani covered their eyes with their palms.)

Vinay: (whispered) Samayalkaarana??

Mani: Hey!! Yaare paarthu samayalkaaran'nu sollure??

Sivanya: Kitchen lernthu saapadu eduthuttu vararu. Appo samayalkaarar thane?? Illei waiter oh?? (Vinay looked at her in disbelief and looked back at Malar and Mani who were looking at him helplessly.)

Malar: Sivanya, ivaru nee ninaikkire mathiri…..

Sivanya: Akka, neengge pannine urupadiyana vishayam, ivare samayalkaarara eduthathuthan. Paake semmaya irukkaru, ka. Enggernthu ippadi oru specimen'eh pudichingge?? (Vinay is completely amused with her words. He looked at Malar in shock. Mani ran from there and returned with a small box.)

Mani: Hey, nee inthe paalkova'ku thane vanthe?? Eduthuttu appadiye odi poyidu. Inthe pakkam marupadiyum vanthurathe.

Sivanya: Inimelthan naan adikadi varuven. Ivare sight adikkarathukku. (She winked at him making him startled.) Ithu enna innoru puthu dish ah?? (She asked looking at the plate on Vinay's hand. Malar took the plate and tasted it.)

Malar: Vere level, Vinay!!

Vinay: Thanks!!

Sivanya: Enakku konjom!!

Malar: Sorry, da. Nee saapide mudiyathu. Ithu non veg.

Sivanya: Appadiya?? Sari paravale. (Her face became sad.) Naan varen, ka. Bye, samayalkaarare. (She waved towards Vinay and left from there. Vinay left a huge breath.)

Vinay: Malar anni, yaaru inthe ponnu?? Vere level'le pesura!! Samayalkaaran, specimen'nu.

Malar: Neengge thappa eduthukkathingge, Vinay. Ava appadithan pesuva. Manasule ethuvum vechikka maata.

JMKKan just finished visiting Lakshmi and got inside the car.

Kathir: Anne, kaalaile oru kadaile porul vaangginighale. Anthe kadai kitte irakki vitturighe.

Jeeva: Yen, da??

Kathir: Irakki vidu, ne. Ellam appurom solluren.

Jeeva: Sari, da. (He started the car and drove from there. Jeeva stopped the car at the shop and saw Sivanya there. Kathir got down from the car and walked towards Sivanya.) Inthe pulleye ivan ethukku paake poran??

Kannan: Mullai anni vishayama thaan. (He told them Sivanya's plan.)

Meena: Paravaleye. Anthe kulanthai kulle ivvalavo ariva?? (Jeeva drove leaving the place.)

Sivanya: Bayappadathingge!! Naan innum mulusa solli mudikkale. Kekkalama vendama'nu yosichi kekkalam'nu ponena….. (Kathir is getting impatient to know what this girl had done.) Apponu parthu ennode brilliant mind'ku oru super idea vanthuchi. (Kathir looked at her confusingly. She took out her mobile and showed something. Kathir smiled happily.) Eppudi??

Kathir: Super!! Malar kitte sollale'le?? (Sivanya shaked her head.)

Sivanya: Sari. Vaangge polam. (They left from there.)

Mullai's House

Mullai reached a bit late due to some works. She saw everyone except Kathir were sitting and chatting at the living area. Her heart was feeling guilty for speaking to him harshly this morning. She tried looking for him but she couldn't find him.

Parvathy: Mullai, innaikki rombe velaya?? Eppothum seekiram vanthuruviye.

Mullai: (in a lower tone) Aama, ma. Konjom jaasthi velai.

Pugazh: Rombe tired ah iruppe. Ukkaru naan tea eduthuttu varen.

Mullai: Vendam, aththan. Naan shower pannittu varen. (Pugazh nodded and she left to her room.)

Mullai's Room

Mullai opened the door and directly walked to the washroom after taking her towel and clothes. She came out from the washroom after taking her shower. She stood in front of the dressing table and widened her eyes in shock looking at the mirror.

Mullai: (shouted) Anna!! Akka!! Aththan!! (Everyone except MuPar rushed towards her room.)

Arjun: Enna aachu, Mullai!!??

Malar: Yen kathure, papa??

Akila: Cockroach ethavathu parthiya?? (Mullai pointed towards the wall. They looked at the wall and surprised to see a huge frame which is having Karthik's picture inside it.)

Mullai: Ithe yaar maatinathu??

Arjun: Teriyaleye. (He looked at VP.)

Vetri: Dei, naangge ippothanada vanthom.

Kannan: Mullai anni, ithe Kathir anne thaan maatinuchi. (Arjun looked at JM and they just nodded their heads.)

Mullai: (shocked) Avughala!!??

Meena: Karthik'ode photo odenjathu avarukku rombe kashtama pochi. Athan.

Kannan: Mullai anni, Kathir anne itheyum ungga kitte kudukke sonnuchi. (He forwarded a small photo frame towards her.) Ithule kannadi illei. Athunaale keele vilunthalum odeyathu. (Mullai's eyes are brimmed with tears looking at the frame. She is feeling bad for shouting at him.)

Mullai: Avughe ippo engga irukkaghe??

Jeeva: Keelethan enggeyavathu iruppan. (Mullai stormed out from the room before anyone could stop her. Others looked at the huge photo frame which is hanging on the wall.)

Arjun: (whispered towards VP) Namma oru plan pota Kathir vere ennemo pannuraru.

Pugazh: Athanda enggalukkum puriyale.

Vetri: Frame ok. Aana ivvalavo perusa va??

Vinay: Kathir Mullai anni'ye love pannurara?? (All of them are shocked with his question.) Yen ippadi shock aaguringge??

Vinay: Ithe paakurappo enakku appadithan teriyuthu.

Malar: Enggalukku appadi teriyaleye. Kathir frame odechathukku puthusa frame senji kuduthirukkaru. Ithule enna irukku??

Jeeva: Dei, Kanna pesame iruda!! Vinay, neengge ninaikkire mathiri ethuvum illei. Mullai'ye samathanam paduthanumthaan inthe mathiri Kathir pannirukkan.

Vinay: Sorry. Enakku strike anathe sonnen. Hurt pannirunthena, I'm really very sorry. (He left from the room. All of them felt bad for lying at Vinay.)

Jeeva: Innum ethanai naalukku Vinay kitte sollama maraikke porom?? Avare yemathurumo'nu rombe sanggadama irukku.

Akila: Aama, mama. Avarukkum vere santhegam vanthiruchi. Pesame avarukitte sollilaralama??

Pugazh: Ennanu solle sollure?? Avungge enna nijama love pannikittu irukkanggala, namma confirm panni pesurathukku?? Rendu perukkum mutual attraction irukku.

Vetri: Aana athu avungge realise pannale. (Pugazh agreed.) At least, Kathir strong'ah love pannuren'nu sonna pothum. Namma Vinay kitte thairiyama sollilaralam.

Kannan: Athu Kathir annan kitte nadakkuma'nu teriyathu. Sariyana vaatha irukku.

Malar: Kanna, un Kathir anna mattum illei. Love vishayathule aambalaingge eppothum vaatha'than iruppangge. (She said looking at Vetri. Akila and Meena agreed while PJ stared at them. ArKan chuckled silently.)

Mullai was searching for Kathir all around the house and found him standing at the fountain playing with the water. She ran towards him and hugged him from behind making him startled.

Mullai: Sorry'ngge!! Naan unggale appadi pesirukke kudathu.

Kathir: Hey!! Nee ethukku sorry sollure?? Yen melethan thappu. Naan odeichirukke kudathule??

Mullai: Neengge teriyame thane pannunighe. Naanthan loosu mathiri unggale thittitten. Enneye manichirughe.

Mullai: Mannichitten sonnathan viduven.

Kathir: Athukku nee enneye un mugathai paarke vidanum. Thanniye parthukittu mannichitten'nu solle mudiyathu. (Mullai realised she was hugging him from behind and pulled herself away from him. He turned towards her.) Kaalailernthu un mugathai paakame oru mathiri irunthuchi.

Mullai: Sorry'ngge. (Her tears started to make their way out from her eyes.)

Kathir: Hey, alathe. Naan un idathule irunthalum appadithan pesiruppen. Yen, athukku meleyum pesiruppen. (He wiped her tears and cupped her face.) Un mele thappe illei. Anthe photo unakku evvalavo mukkiyam'nu enakku teriyum. Athan naan pannine thappe sari panne puthusa oru frame'eh seiya sonnen. Anthe frame pudichirukka?? (She cried and hugged him making him startled again.)

Mullai: Neengge yen ivvalavo nallavaghala irukkighe?? Naan unggale appadi thittiyum neengge enakkaghe ivvalao pannirukkighe.

Kathir: Appadiya?? Unakku nyabagam irukka?? Kunnakudi'le oru naal naan unneye thittinene. (Mullai smiled recalling that day.) Athukkum ithukkum ippo sariya pochi. Nee manasu potu kulappikathe. (He embraced her and they stayed like that for some time.)

To be continued…..
