Nee Indri Ini Ennal Irunthida Mudindhiduma? (PART ONE)

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Aachiriyama iruku, naa itha avarkita ethirpakave illa. Aana Samar oru actor, Shalini oda engeyachu velila pona..."

"Avanga safe ah than irupanga. Avan oru celebrity ah irukalam, innoru pakkam avanum sarasari manushan thana? I guarantee you, avan irukura varaikum Shalini pathi neenga kavalaiye pada vendam"

As Madhavi held her hand, Purnima expressed
"Shalini ku neenga kudutha care, avaluku oru family ah neenga irunthathu, ellathukume oru nandri sonna pathaathu. Avala nenichu varutha padatha naal eh illa, ippo neenga ithellam sollum bothu enaku nimmathiya iruku"

"Shalini happy ah irukrathu thana namakku mukkiyam? She is happy with him" Purnima said in between her little tears.

"Aama Pa. Naa Samar bro oda personal ah interact pannirken, he's awesome...and funny too" Lekha chuckled.

"Hmm. Avan solli thana laptop la irunthu antha CCTV footage eduthu anupina...enaku theriyum ma" Krishnan said in a low tone.

"Athu nala avaluku nariya chances kedaikum Pa, namma avaloda theramai ah appo purinjukave illa" Shiva said.

"Ippo ava oru independent album eh pannita. Now it's clear who is more successful among us" Rekha mused and walked inside her room.

"Pasangala valathu avangaluku nallathu kettathu solrathu than namma kadamaiye thavira, avanga life 'appadi than irukanum, ippadi than irukanum' nu mudivu panra rights nammala vittu poiruchu. Avanga oru vayasuku vanthuta edukura choices correct ah irukum, unless they know what they are capable of" Purnima concluded.

Krishnan removed his spectacles and slumped against the sofa, dumbfounded by the conversation. He peered into his family photo hung on the wall which was captured before the "family business" ruckus took place. Purnima looking at her phone home screen which had Shalini's childhood picture, landed her in extreme speechlessness.

6 years back, Shiva used to be loving and caring towards Shalini like how Vikram is. Now that she's not present here and his mother explained everything, a bout of guilt stroke him as he is missing her.

Despite Lekha casually communicates with Shalini nowadays, the fact that the latter didn't confront her misbehaviour and gradually accepting her made her even more guilty.

Rekha was totally stuck due to her rigidity in considering Shalini as her competitor. She didn't know how to react properly.

*•*•*•*•*

Sahana brought a distraught Shalini home as there were gossips of her on the way to her office.

Samar looked at her state and walked towards her. "Shalini, I'm so sorry...naa romba careless ah irunthuten"

"Don't blame yourself, ippo itha solve panra vazhiya papom" she grasped his hand strongly.

"Inga ivala kootitu varathukulla pothum nu airuchu...public ku arive illa, kelvi ketu ketu kodayuranga. Pavam iva" Sahana expressed her annoyance.

"Avanga keka than seivanga Saha. Ippo kavalai ennana Shalini oda family than..." he locked the door and sighed.

The next hour, an anxious silence filled the atmosphere. Shalini fiddling her top's long sleeve, Samar rubbing his palms, Sahana resting on Rajan's shoulder and Lakshmi folding the clothes.

Samar broke the silence and said "Naa oru mudivu pannirken Shalini. But unaku keka kashtama irukum..."

Sahana instantly woke up and sat erect, clearing her throat.

"Hmm...ennathu?"

"*sighs* Namma intha relationship ah mudichukalam."

She and the rest of the members gaped at his unexpected statement.

"Dei theliva oru mudivu sollu da, velayadatha" Lakshmi said after dropping a cloth down the floor.

"I'm serious Lakshu. Ennala than iva news la vanthurka. Media kita naa explanation kuduka ready ah iruken"

"Nanum media ku answer panna virumbaren Samar"

"Hey, avan etho muttal thanama pesaran. Neeyum avana support panriya?" Sahana hit her arm.

"Ithula enna thappu iruku? Career vida namma life la ethuvum perusu illa..."

"Ivalo naal rendu perum love and career ah balance panningale. Athukaga urava mudikanum nu enna avasiyam?" Rajan confronted.

"Enga career than mukkiyam uncle. Engala force pannathinga please" she requested having no other way.

"Force pannala, practical ah yosikka solren"

"Ithu ungaluku practical ah therilaya chithappa?"

"Un kita pesi saathika mudiyathu da. Shalini, neeyachu purinjupa nenichen ma" Rajan groaned in disappointment.

"Rajan, avane nonthu poirukan. Nee vera yen da thittura..." Lakshmi calmed him down.

"Konjam eduthu sollu Ma avanuku, un peran thana. Career oh love oh, namma peaceful ah vaazhurathu than mukkiyam" Rajan vented out his annoyance.

"DING DONG" the sound of the doorbell created tension for them.

"Amma kadai la irunthu vanthutangalo?" Sahana doubted.

"Iru naa pakaren..."

Samar stood up and looked through the peephole. He paved way for Shalini's parents and Shiva to enter inside.

Shalini's heart began palpitating rapidly because she assumed that they were going to blame Samar.

Shalini's parents and Rajan & Lakshmi greeted each other with mixed emotions.

"Mr.Rajan, ungala aniku mariyatha korava pesinathuku enna mannichurunga. En ponnu ellame thappana mudivu than eduthuruka nu nenichu avala seriya purinjukama poiten"

Shalini shedded a single tear from her eyes, unable to believe what's going on including Samar, who glanced at Krishnan.

"Athellam paravala sir. Neenga ivalo thooram purinjukitathu periya vishayam" Rajan said in contentment.

"Athu mattum illa. Naa nariya thappu panniten Shalini vishayathula, athuku parigarama..."

"Yen Pa izhukaringa?" Shiva whined and turned to Rajan.
"Uncle, Appa amma ku avanga relationship la entha objection um illa. Samar ah pathi nanga nariya therinjuka virumbarom."

Lakshmi and Rajan grin at each other and then look at ShaMar in an anticipation to reconsider their decision.

"Finally, amma appa pakkam green signal vanthuruchu. But enga relationship ippo sikkal la iruke...atha eppadi solrathu?" Shalini was stuck in a cataclysm of profound joy and deep hesitation.
