The next day, Ashwin woke up and while getting ready, he noticed the reply Meyshna wrote on the sticky note. He smiled thinking she actually replied to this little crazy idea (sticky note).
While Ashwin was away for work, Meyshna spent the days with Abi and Sumathi (Ashwin's mum). Meyshna already had a good bonding with her mother-in-law but now it has become more. Sumathi is also used to treating Meyshna like her own daughter as she always hangs out with Abi. Meyshna and Abi decided to let Sumathi to rest, they took care of the cooking for the day.
Sumathi: Ma, how is everything? Are you going ok with it? I know it's new and everything can be overwhelming
Meyshna: I'm fine athai, palaka patta edam dhana adhunala enaku periya changes theriyala
Sumathi: amma nu kooptu dhana palakam, nee apdiye koopdu, anike solanumnu nenachen but slipped out of my mind. Veetla changes illanu theriyum ma, adhu nee enga kooda irukura appove I can feel. I meant with Ashwin; you both are ok right? Avan appo appo ipdidhan takkunu kelambi poiduvan, avanoda work apdi. Ennada ippodhan kalyanam aanuchu adhukula he's leaving you off and going nu lam thona koodadhula, adhunala kekuren
Meyshna: apdilam edhum naa yosikala ma
Sumathi: naa avan kitta solren, to take some time off, you both should get to know each other. Indha marriage ae takkunu dhana nadandhuchu, ungaluku pesi palaga kooda avlo time illa
Meyshna: (M/V: nalla dhana poitu irundhadhu). We are fine ma, neenga worry lam panna vena, everything is alright
Abi reassured her mum, Sumathi then felt better. She was equally worried for both Ashwin and Meyshna, though they both agreed on this marriage, she knows it's an arranged one which happened in a rush. She didn't want the both of them to have any regrets in saying yes for this wedding.
Having Meyshna at home didn't make Sumathi to feel uncomfortable or new, like how all her relatives told her. It still felt like a family to her, she was pretty confident on both Ashwin and Meyshna.
While getting his work done, he felt hungry and went to check if there's any left-over food in fridge. He quickly cooked a vegetable pasta for him and heard someone walking towards the kitchen. He turned around and saw Meyshna coming forward. He thought to himself "light on pani you woke her up da". Meyshna was surprised to see Ashwin at kitchen, cooking something.
Ashwin: heyyy, why aren't you asleep?
Meyshna: you're back, what time were you back? I had a bad dream, and forgot to bring my bottle to room, adhan came to drink water
Ashwin gave Meyshna a glass of water.
Ashwin: came back an hour ago. Bad dream? you're ok now?
Meyshna: thank you, ya I'm fine. Amma said you told her you didn't want dinner, adhan there's no food
Ashwin: thideernu pasichichu, quickly made some pasta, do you want some? Nambikayoda sapdalam
Meyshna: (smiled), ellarum ungaloda cooking'a perumaya dhan pesuranga so no doubt in that but I don't feel like eating, it's ok, you carry on
Ashwin: avlo teriyuma, not bad. Anyways, get some sleep, good night
Meyshna said good night and went back to room.
