As he starts towards the Goodown, he comes to a
halt near a enclosed tree shade as it starts to rain again. He cant afford to
get wet or drenched.
As he sat on his trusted TVS 50, he remembered
how she had requested him, pleading him to teach her. That memory brought a
smile to his face with all her antics.
Suddenly it sparked to him
“Sollikudutha badhiluku enna tharuva?
Enna Venum….
Naan yosichu Solren….”
YES.
Kathir got his trump. He got to see her. Got to
speak to her. There are certain things that one spoke only in person and not
over the phone. This one he got to do in person. But there is a hitch again. He
needs her alone for this. He doesn’t want others to know that they are meeting
in the middle of the night. Especially his in laws.
Her mom’s home is hardly 5 mins walk from where
he is stranded. If the rain stops, he will be able to go to her mom’s place.
But what to tell them? He checked the time … its 11.20. The rain has started to
slow down. Its just a little drizzle. Thats fine.
He picked his mobile and dialed her number… A
song played.
He was shocked, saddened and kind of delighted
all at once on hearing the words. Did he do this to her? Is this the song she
has? He never knew. But …
The call went unanswered.
Is she sleeping? If so, does he want to disturb
her sleep? Does he want to disturb her
sleep? What if she is avoiding him?
No. This one, this once, he is going to do what
he wants. Yes. He is going to be selfish here.
He rang her once more…
“ Ennakaga eriyum Kathire….
En Vazhvil Ooli thanthayae…..
Nee indri yengumme irul aanadhe….. “
He once again heard these lines. Does this
mean… Again his call went unanswered. He looked at the time. Its 11.27. Time is
running out. He needs her to pick his call if his plans has to work. But what
if she is avoiding his call …. He was not sure. May be he will call her one
more time. If she is not picking the call, then he will leave and go home for
the night.
