Meanwhile at Mullai’s Home

Parvathy is sitting in the hall and making preparation works for dinner. Mullai is by her side and helping her. She keeps looking at her mobile from time to time.

 Parvathy: Mulla… Mappila unna nalla parthukararila? Anga unnaku onnum prechanai ilaye?

Mullai: Ila ma. Enna avaru romba nalla parthukarar. Naan dhan apo loose madhri edhavudhu sollidaren.. senjudaren… apo kooda avaru porumaiya enna, eadhunu ketutu dhan pesuraru.

Even though the answer felt truthful, Mullai was not happy or joyous when saying all this.. It confirmed Parvathy’s suspicion of something being wrong between the couple.

Parvathy: Unnaku anga neraya velai irukuma? Rest eduka mudiyuma?

Mullai: Appadi onnum perusa velailam ila ma. Akka ve ellam senjuruvanga. Naan kooda kaiku irupen. Avlo dhan. Mathapadi Kadai vishiyam, Maama, ivuga, kanna ippadi ellam poga vara irukaradhunala eppavum busy ya irukum.

She decided to probe a little, so as to guide her daughter in the right direction if need be. She has concluded from everything that happened since the couples’ arrival that it has to be sorted between themselves and no 3rd person should be involved. But that doesn’t mean she can’t be a catalyst.

Like her husband, she too has a work to do for their daughter’s happy life.

Parvathy: Amma kita konjam koova padama badhil solluviya? Unnalladhuku dhan naan ketpen nu unnaku theriyum la!

Mullai: Enna ma?

Parvathy: Unnaku anga kaasuku kashtam ah da? Adhane Moothiratha vikka ponna?

Mullai: Amma. Adha pathi dhayavu senju ipo pesadha ma. Aana onnu ma. Athatchi ya konjam thaliye vai. Nambinadhu ellam podhum.

Parvathy: En ma appadi solra? Nee anga kashta pata ennaku theriyanum la. Kekka aal ila nu andha Dhanam nenachida koodadhu da.

Mullai: Akka voda unnaku appadi enna dhan ma prechanai? Envo ma… Aana athatchi ya nambadha.

Mullai was reminded of the whole humiliating scenario. This again led to Kathir’s care and affection towards her, continued by her efforts for buying him the gift and buying the gift itself. His excitement and expression of gratitude for the gift, which brought tears to Mullai’s eyes.

Parvathy observed the changing emotions on Mullai’s face. This once again confirmed her suspicion that it’s a husband-wife issue. She decided to guide Mullai in a subtle way possible.

Parvathy: En Mulla… Mappila phone panninara?

Mullai: Ila ma. Nethu dhana vitutu ponaga.

Parvathy: Inniku kupidalaya?

Mullai: Pagal nerathula Kadai la avlo velai irukum. Ipo Pudhu kadai velai vera sernthiruku.

Parvathy: Nee koopida vendiyadhu dhana?

Mullai: ila ma.. avagaluku velai nerathula disturb panna suthama pudikaadhu.

Parvathy: Pondatti phone pannuradhulam oru thondharava da? Ennava venum naalum irukatum.. Nee avaruku koopitu rendu vaarthai pesu. Seriya?

Mullai: Hmmm… seri ma… ( She said this very faintly)

Parvathy decided to divert the topic a little, but still stay with the family itself,
Anniki unna koopida unga appa vandhutu, avlo sandhosam avaruku…
“Mappillai ku mullai ya vitu iruka manusu ila.. Adhunala naan kootitu varla.
Enna avaru vaai niraya Maama nu koopitar nu”………

Parvathy went on talking… But Mullai has tuned her out on the reminder of not having spoken to Kathir for almost two days. It hurt her s bad, she was finding it hard to breath. She wanted to cry, wanted to scream, but was not able to do. The one person to whom she has opened up of her emotions for the past couple of months, is the one who is avoiding her, not wanting her.

Unknowingly he has become her friend. Close friend. Best friend. Only friend. Now that she thinks of it, he had been her only solace in all the trauma this past year.

Her eyes welled up. She stared at her phone.

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.

Oodal Chapter 11 Pic Courtesy:  @kathirmullai_captures Kathir arrived at the godown to receive the carpenter and to give instructions for the impending works. Its gonna be a long night. His thoughts are in chaos. He needs a plan. Time is ticking. All he knows is that he needs to see her and hear her voice on Nov 26. Its an “and”, not “or”. It’s a “Need”, not a “want”. Also, he wants that voice addressing him, speaking to him, even if its to argue with him and he needs to see her and have her look at him. Really look at him. He had plans for Nov 26. At first, when he first learnt her birth date, he thought of simply wishing her and may be get her a candy or sweet, for that time it was all that they were. Two strangers trapped in a relationship, that neither can get out. So, he would make it pleasant. Then, after seeing the effort she went through to make his birthday special, that time he was on friendly terms with her, and that instance pushed him...
