ONE-SHOT (OS) STORIES

OS 2 - KOVIL

Kathir and Mullai was enjoying the bike ride – Until Kathir just passed by the temple they should go – Luckily Mullai realised –

M: Ennaghe! Kovil pinnadi pochu! Enge poringe! (laughing)

K: Achachooo....Etho nenapu le.....Cheh! (making a U-turn)

M: Nalla velai naan konjam theliva irunthen! Tho! Kovil vanthuruchu!

K: Kovil engeyum varale! Nambe tha kovil ku vanthurukom! (laugh)

M: Paaahhhh!!!! Nagaisuvaiya? Semmaya iruku Nge! (sarcastically)

K: Ennake vaa! Pothum! Vaa ulle polam!

M: Hehehehehe! Ennaghe! Archanai thathu vangikonge!

- Both went near the shop - Brought the Archanai thathu – take off the slippers and placed them next to each other's – went in the temple together -

Pusari (Pr): Vango! Yaar peruku Archanai?

Both K & M: Enge peruku saami!

Pr: Pere sollungo...Besha Archanai pannirelam!

- Kathir puts his hand on the Archanai thathu and tells

(Mullai ****raasi ****natchatram)

- Mullai was shocked but without thinking much...She placed her hand on top of his hand on that Archanai thathu and says

(Kathirvelan ****raasi ****natchatram)

- Even Kathir was shocked too – Both removed their hands as the Pusari started saying mantras – Kaigal kuupi, kangal muudi, mounamai Kathir um Mullai yum Kadavulai prathanai seigiraargal–

K (praying): Kadavuley! Unnaku eppadi nandri sonnalum pathathu! Ennaku ippadi oru kalyanam...ippedi azhagana anbana oru manaivi....appedi azhagana oru vaazhkai....naan ethirpaarkeve illai! Ethuku ellam Nee tha karanam! Engelukule irukure inthe santosam, purinthunarvu, paasam, anbu, akkarai, kadhal, ithu ellam eppothum irukanum....enge vaazhkaile aduthu kathuthuku eduthu poganum! Neethan arul puriyanum, Saami!

M (praying): Kadavuley! Evanghe kuude eppadi vaazhe poreno nu Unkitte neraiya vaathi aluthuruken! Aana nee thirupi eppadi oru santhosatha kuddu pe nu naan sathiyama ethirparkele! Ivanghe kude vaazhrathu rombeve pidichiruku....Ivangelaiyum rombeve pidichiruku! Ivanghelum sari inthe vaazhkaiyum seri rombe naal ....en kadaisi muchi irukure varai enkudeve irukanum! Enge vaazhkaile adutha katha mudivu eduke, Neethan engeluku thunai puriyanum, Saami!

Pusari returns with the Archanai thathu to them!

Pr: Inthagoo! Ithe vangiko Ma! (hand over the Archanai thathu to Mullai) Thambi... vibuthi eduthuko pa! Thambi intha! Kungumam! Ithe un manaivu ku veichi vidu!

K: Athu...Naana! (looking at Mullai) (She was already blushing there)

Pr: Enna Pa ithu? Un manaiviku thanne vechi vide sonne! Ippedi yosikire! Paaru! Anthe pulle eppadi vekkathodu ekkathode unne paarkuthunu! Vechu viden Pa!

Kathir saw what the Pusari said about Mullai was clearly seen on her face and was very happy – he took the Kungumam and did a small line on her forehead and to her shocking moment... Did on her middle hairline too! Mullai was on tears – Pusari saw all these cute acts of this couple –

(Song: Netri Kungumam / Movie: Kaala Koothu)

Netri kungumam nee sooda
Eththanai thavam naan seitheno
Ottrai thingal unai sera
Ingoru piravi edutheno
Oonil oorum uyirenavae
Unnodu unakkulae vaazhven

Pr: Rombe shanthosham! Yen Pa...ungelukku kalyanam aagi ippothan konja naal aacha? Ippothan nee muthal muraiya manaiviku ippediyellam seiriyo? Un manaivi santhosathule kann kalagi nikirathule theriyuthe! Evvalo naal aachi Ma kalyanam aagi?

Mullai was shocked to hear this from a stranger as his guess was correct – She wipes her tears and answered –

M: Illainge Saami! Kalyanam aayi oru varusham aachi!

K: Aama Saami! Iva en Mama ponnu tha....Aana seriya lam pesikemaathum! Aana santharpe sulnalai....Pidikathe rendu peraiyum kalyanam pannivechithange!

M: Ippothan konjam konjama pidike arambichu vaazhrom, Saami! Athu...Avenghe....Neenghe sonna mathiri muthal muraiya ennaku ippadi Kungumam vekirange....Athan...anandha kaneer! (smile)

Pr: Adada.....Theriyithu Ma! Thambi yum unmele rombe paasama irukurathu nalla theriyuthu! Neeyum avar mele paasama iruke! Neenge rendu perum rombe varusham nalla irupinge! Kolanthai kuthingelode shanthoshama irupinge! Inthe Kadavul paarthuparu!

K: Rombe santhosam Saami! Unge vaarthai palikethum! Varom Saami! Vaa Mulla!

Both thanked the Saami, take their Archanai thatu and left that area! Then, Kathir and Mullai sat near a pillar – Mullai stared at Kathir in a wow look –

K: Enna appedi paarkure Mulla? Yeppadi un raasi...Natchatram lam theriyum nu kekeporiya?

M: Aaha! Illaiye! Athuku than ennaku bathil theriyume!

K: Ethu theriyuma? Enge sollu?

M: Akkarai iruntha ellam theriyum nu solluvinge! Athetha naanum solluven, ennaiyum neenghe ketta! Eppadi???

K: Paarda! Arivali than en Pondatti! (smiles) Apparom yen ennaiye appadi paarthe mothe?

M: Athu seri....Athuku nambetha ethavathu seiyanum! Verumane pesithu iruntha eppadi? (laughes)

K: Ey, ithu kovil! Enna pesikithu iruke? Unnaku ennamo aachitha! Cheri! Vaa! Kelambelam! Unge veethuku....illai illai....EN MAMA, EN ATTHAI veethuku ponom le! Time aaguthu paaru!

M: Paarda! UNGE MAMA UNGE ATTHAI ya...Serithan! Vaange polam!

- Both turn to God's alter – Both Kathir and Mullai touched their chin and chest repeatedly indicating their respect to God and went out of the temple – Both their shoulders touched when they were about to wear their slippers which was very close to each other's – Both turned and smiled – Then, they got on the bike - the same hug around his waist and his smile seeing her on the mirror doesn't change – They start their journey to Kathir's in-law house –
