As Kathir waited for the stock to arrive, he got thinking of all the words spoken by Moorthy, Meena and especially by Jeeva. All pointed to only one thing. Its for him to open up to Mullai. That’s the gist of all the talks.

He is beyond confused. He is unable to concentrate for even few minutes. Its only the second day since she went to her home and its not even night. He is afraid that he will not be able to sleep tonight too.

As mullai went to organize her things and dust her room, she found her old journals and kavidhai notes. Her treasured journal is still in their room. She remembered the last entry into it. It was made hardly a few days earlier. After her confession to the family on her feelings towards Kathir. The last time ever she smiled… twin tears slid down her cheeks.

He took his phone and checked it. No. There is neither a call or a message. He is waiting for some kind of indicator that showed she is missing him too. If he even get a small sign, he will run to her parents’ home first thing. He already went around their street 5-6 times in these two days. Its killing him to not hear her voice, not see her face.

As she sat on the bed with a heavy heart, she couldn’t help but wonder why she had this urge to run to the gate and look out or run upstairs to observe the street below all through the day since arriving last noon. Once she did try to go upstairs but then her mother called up for help.

The room felt so empty last night. The house felt like a strange place without her presence. He did not go home for lunch. He is not hungry. He knows anni will be worried, but he will not be able to fool the family anymore. They will find out. What if they questioned her and hurt her? He can’t stand it. He can never be the reason for her pain anymore.

Mullai thought of the words he spoke to her parents when they arrived. He kept repeating Varen. But not once did he even care to call her. Does he even have her number? She is doubtful. And what is that Kanna said? Is he really happy now that she is not there? Was kanna bluffing? But why should kanna bluff?

He got to bring his emotions in check. He has a loving family and a work he loves. His wallowing is not gonna be of any help at all but his gut is acting like a roller coaster and he is finding it hard to breathe as memories keeps assaulting him.

He remembered Kodaikanal memories, the night they shared a bed for the first time…. She looked hurt when he first refused to get on the bed. ….

Those few minutes when he thought he lost her… God! He truly did die a little that time. She looked so beautiful that day. He remembered the words he spoke to her that night.

“Thoolaya Vitu iruka maten. Enga irundhalum thaedi kandu pudichirupen”

Ipo ippadi tholachitu nikareyae da Kathiru! – He mused as he slightly combed his hair with his fingers.

He heard his name being called out.. He turned to find the stock had arrived. He helped the load men to unload from the vehicle and instructed them of the place to arrange the same. He checked the stocks. This time he remembered her trying to lift the mootai at home the other day. Her visits to the shop from time to time also flashed in front of his eyes…

He kept hearing his and her words

“Aahn! Appadiye indha mootai thookavum kathuka sollunga nae…
Thevai patta adhaiyum naanga seiyvom”

Pandian Stores - New Montage Review

This is my take on the new Promo Montage. A review if you may say so.   The seven lead characters, all happy, posing in front of the crux of the story, their home. Though the picture or the final freeze frame shows only that, the few seconds video as well as the frame by itself is the reflection of each character and their whole personality, so different, yet same. Sathyamoorthy Anna - The head of the family. In the center. His rightful place. He is the axis. Dhanam anni to his left, for she is his heart, his conscience. Kanna, the kadaikutty closer to the leader for he will forever be sheltered/ protected.  Though Moorthy resting his hands on Dhanam's shoulder looks simple, it shows that he always leans on her for support.  Dhanam is his strength yet his weakness. The video shows her smiling at Mullai for she unintentionally impacted her life and is now happy, it turned out well. Dhanam here looks contend and blissful.  ...

Puridhal - FF Part 2 - 1

Puridhal Chapter 1 Pic Courtesy: @kathirmullai_captures (This is taking place on the night of 26 th Nov) Kathir sat in his room, his back to the wall, legs stretched in the front. His eyes were closed and on closer look one can find a serene, calm smile, albeit a tiny one playing on his lips as he leaned his head on the wall. His mat, pillow and sombu were at their designated place, ready for their master. 😊 His mobile was playing melodies of 90’s but none of it registered on his mind, for he is beyond elated inside, hardly any reflection to the normal visible eyes. He re-played the day he had starting from the time, he gathered courage and called her up. Mullai! His Rosapoo! ***** Memories of the Day’s events ***** Kathir and Mullai stayed in their blissful state, unaware of the ungodly hours or their postures which on normal situation will surely be uncomfortable, or the prevailing climate, which is quite cold after a good rain. Her grip on h...

Puridhal - FF Part 2 - 10

Puridhal Chapter 10 Pic Courtesy: @kathirmullai_captures *********KM room – Present time************ Kathir sat thinking how to go about the last leg of his surprise plans as well as where to start and how to go about clearing the misunderstandings and miscommunications they have had so far. He knows it’s a long list and it cannot be sorted in a single talk or over the night. But, he wants to get started at some point, and today seems like a good day to set things in motion. If they wish to start living their life as husband and wife, in all sense of the word, it’s very important to clear the air before moving on further. He needs to know and understand her, for their life to be happy. She needs to know and understand him, for their life to be peaceful. Postponing or rushing through it all is not going to help in the long run, and this is a lifetime commitment. Till death do them apart. He may be the man in love, but he is also a very sensible and practic...

There was a missed call notification light on her mobile. But who would be calling her at this time of the night? She is tired of waiting for his call. She did not check the phone and decided to move near the window to look outside when her phone rang once again. She turned to look at the caller and her heart stopped beating for a second Has the earth stopped rotating? She found it really hard to breath! The caller Name displayed as “MY SUN “ with a heartbeat emoji at the start and end. M: h..h… hello!! Kathir was so happy and relieved in hearing her voice that he forgot to speak for a few seconds.
