Athai Dhanam gasped
Intha vishayathula nee thothu thaan poitta..innonnu solven unakku valikkum..she paused
Dhanam looked at her sharply
The daughter-in-law knew she was being accused of over compensating for not having a child of her own
Lakshmi amma met her stare head on
Jeeva walked in then speaking on the phone
Ele Kathiru kadaikku tiffin konduttu varom athe solla thaan phone potten Jeeva said
He was lifting another bag so put the phone on speaker
Aiyo anne eppudi aachum athe thavirthudu nne ..naane idly lernthu innikku viduthalai ..poori saappidalaam nu ippo thaan kelambaren..please ne please ne ethaachum pannu ne..Kathir could be heard
Unakku rathiri irukku dee Jeeva chuckled
Yaaru Kathir ah pa..en kitta kudu
Kathiru
Amma
Kaalaila sonnathu thaan pa..anga koil ku Akash oda function ku nee innum 30 nimishathula kelamba mudinja kelambu..athuvum nalla alakkina vella veshtiyum palichunnu sattaiyum pottu kittu..athu illaama..anni sonnanga nnu delivery pora athe azhukku sattaiyum paratta thalaiyumaa sothu timeku correct an vanthu ninna..amma naane unne kevalamaa pesiduven..
There was silence on the other end
Enna purinjutha..the mother snapped
Neenga sonnathum maathu thuni konduttu vanthutten ma..came the meek answer
Nallathu pa..ippo poi un aasai theera poori saappidu po..the mom smiled on the phone and cut the call
Jeeva wasn't aware of the conversation that had transpired just then and had been tickled by Kathir's innocent wish
Athai dress vechu thaan mathippa
Ille ya pinna.. un purushana appudi koottittu po..Po Moorthy poi Kathir lungiyum thoikka pottu irukkara shirtum pottuttu vaa naan wait pandren Lakshmi said
There was an uncomfortable silence
Lakshmi amma waited a minute
Hmm appo unnaala mudiyathu aanaa thambikku eduthu solla maatta..un pondaatti naan sollum pothu athellam thevai illennu pesuvaa..etho unakku udambu seri illennu padippa niruthittu kadaikku vanthaan..ippo ellam seri aayiduchu la.avan vaazhkai ya seer seyya enna yosicha..
Again an uncomfortable silence
Ithellam vittaachu..oru idly chutney kondu poi kuduppennu oru akkarai ..thevaiye illatha mannaangatti akkarai
Athai avan enga sonna kekkaraan..
Aiyo saamy..nee kekkalenaa vittuduva paaru appudiye..ithu thaan kadaisi unakku..en pullainga kitta amma naan pesum pothu naan pannaatha soldrathaye pannungara mathiri pesinaa mariyathai kettudum she snapped at Dhanam
Jeeva getting uncomfortable took the last of the bags with him and walked out
Namakku thaan ellam theriyum nu irukkaatha Dhanam..unakke ithu oru naal mana varuthatha thaan tharum..she said in a kinder tone
Dhanam simply went in to leave the packed breakfast in the kitchen
Moorthy wheeled his mom out not knowing how it all suddenly got so squeamish
When Dhanam walked out again there was a commotion outside
Ey unakku asingamaa ille..ungalukkum engalukkum thaan aagathunnu othungi thaane irukkom..appuram yen vara inga
Bheebatsa
Start from the beginning
