M:En nga???
She asked him out of curiosity to know the reason for the name she gave her........
K:Hmm.........En nnu avasiyam theriyanuma??He asked raising his eyebrow making her leave the question behind and look away shyly.........He caught hold of cheek with one hand while his other hand started moving over her bare hip making her wriggle in pleasure......
K:Hmm.......sollu mulla.......theriyanuma????
M:Nee.......neenga.........pesarennu solli......ttu........hmm.........please.......she stuttered parallelly wriggling from his hold thereby giving him access to touch her more........
With her every wriggle his hand automatically reached deep inside her salwar top and landed in focal point of her stomach making her shudder in his hand but in pleasure........She instantly felt a struggle for breath.........
Kathir understood he had gone a bit overboard this time.....
Taking his hand off from her cheek he gently caressed and patted her shoulder to calm her down........
K:Relax......relax............Come here.......He made her lean on his shoulder and gently caressed her......while his one hand still staying back inside her salwar top but in rest......
Sensing mullai's palpitation getting reduced he started speaking gently......Apo nee kutty pillaila irukkaila anne kalyanathukku vandhiya.....
He started saying just like every mother says story to her kid.....
Whereas his kiddish wife said a faint "Hmm........" denoting that she is hearing his words.....
K:You know what naa erkanave sonna maathiri nee nalla bodhukku bodhukkunnu iruppa........chubby cheeks....busu busunnu on rendu kannathulayum maiah vera vechuttu......
Just nadakka aaramichurndha......bothu bothunnu keezha vizhuva.....
Saying so he smiled........Mullai got up and looked at him with a pout making him struggle hard to resist himself.......
K:Mulla......naa paavam......chumma iru.......
M:Naa ennanga senjen???
K:En prechanaiye adhaan........nee enna senja??Edhum seiyardhilla.......ennayum seiya vida maatengra.........
M:Ennga enna seiyanum??Sollunga seiren........
K:Oh naa enna sonnalum seiviya??
He asked with a tinge of naughtiness in his tone.......
M:Oh...seivenenga.........en ongalukku theriyaadha???
K:Amama........hmm......apo seri......eppavaachum naa onna onnu seiya solven..adha nee seiyanum okah??
M:Ada enga neenga eppavaachum enna.......daily neenga ennenna solreehalo ellam naa seiren.....deal??
She asked extending her hand for a shake......
Kathir with a playful smile took his hand from her waist and shook it.......
Both looked into each other's eyes for a few good moments with their entwined hands serving as a promise for something which they themselves were not aware off at that moment.......
Anyways.......
M:Apramnga........
K:Enna apram???
M:Ennga naa enga nga ongala vela seiyaadheehannu sonnen......naa enna kaiyava pudichu nippatunen.......
K:Indha nippatirukkiye........
He said pointing their entwined hands.......
M:Ennga idhu dealnga......mathapadi neenga enna vela seiyanumnnu sonnalum naa stop pannirkena ongala???
K:Oh apo enna vela seiyardhunnaalum nee stop pannamaatiya???
M:Maatene.........
K:Hmm.......Apo idhu nextu deal......naa enna senjaalum nee accept pannanum okah????
M:Ok done.......
She extended her left hand for the deal this time.....
Kathir caught her other hand playfully for a playful closure of this playful deal......
Knocking her head with his ones he kissed her cheek one after another giving her a silent compliment.......
Mullai accepted his compliment with bowed head and closed eyes.....
He then hugged her by her shoulder and caressed her side.....
Making the air lighter, he started speaking about their childhood.....
K:So I was saying you something right......adhukku varuvom.......Nee kutty pullaila nadakka theriyama nadandhu bothu bothunnu vizhuviya......
Apdi oru mora vizhaila thaan onkuda vandha kannavayum sethu thallittu vizhundhutta.....

Apo kalkandu kuduthena......nee "tings"nnu sonna......azhaga ipdi sirichutte.......
saying so he chuckled.....
Mullai pressed her head tightly on his shoulder...
Kathir felt something changing within him.......
And.....
He also felt something changing within her too.......
But whats the change??
He didnt understand that at the particular moment......
Also he didnt feel like thinking about it at that moment.......
Choosing to enjoy the present he continued speaking....
K:Adhukapram kalkandu saaptu nina ninannu ennavo sonna.......Enakku purila......
Apothaan onnaya theditrundha mama kanla nee pattu thanni kekkarannu purinjuttu kuduthaaru.......
M:Mamanna appava thaananga solreeha??

M:Ohh.......oknga........
K:So mama vandhu onakku thanni kuduthaaha.......Apram atha vandhaaha......vandhuttu ennavo sonnaha.....clearah nenappilla.......

Nee en kaiya pudichuttu maatennu sonniya......
Adhukapram 3 perum sendhu poi velayaada aaramichom........
Avan ennaya annennu kooptan........nee ennaya enna koopdannu theriyama muzhichiya......
With that he started dwelling in the past conversation when they were young.........
Mullai too was imagining the scenario which he was saying as she didnt remember anything personally.......
Mela paarunga.......
Ka:nna.....nna.....
K:Enna da??
Ka:Inda papa....aaru???
K:Hmm.......therilaye......namakku frienduhnnu vechupoma???
Ka:teyinnnaa......to mullai.......On erennaaa???
Mullai said nothing but gave him a frightened stare......
K:Enna muyikkara???
He asked in a stern yet kiddish tone of his age scaring her more and making her eyes well up instantly.......
Kathir and kanna looked at each other......
K:Eii........en ayura???
Mullai looked at the other two with a cute pout.......
Kathir and kanna looked at each other.........
Kathir got irritated with her tears.......
K:Eiii.......ayudha kadippen.......kanna toda.......
Mullai gave a scared look but didnt dare to cry that time........
And also she didnt wipe her tears.......
Kathir in an instant wiped her tears........
He then kneeled in front of the short kid and started speaking in a stern bossy tone.....
K:Eii papa.......ayakoodadhunnu sollenlla.......
M:.......
K:Ayamaatennu sollu.......illa kadippen........
M:Maa........maa........
K:Ongammatta poradhukkulla kadichuruven.......sollu.....
M:Maattttteeen......
K:Edhu sollamaatiya????
M:Illa........chinggaaa maatten.........
K:Edhu chingava???
She nodded her head as "yes"...........
K:Appina???
M:Chinga......chinga....she gestured as crying......
K:Oh ayuradha??
M:Mama.....mama........
K:Eii.....kanna chinganna ayuradham.......
He told his brother who looked at mullai as if she's an alien..........
Ka:Nnaaa..........
K:Enna da??
Ka:Eru.....
K:Iru keppom......to mullai....Ei papa......
She looked him in response.........
K:Inga vaa....
Catching hold of her hand and kanna on other side he took them to his playspot in that altar away from other noises........
There the three sat for some simple play as kathir was instructed not to run here and there for play since they may hit someone or something......
K:Eii papa......
Mullai still didnt say anything but looked at him in response........
K:Nee pesamaatiya???
M:.......
K:On perenna????
M:nna.....kka.......papa koopum.........
K:Papannu pera....Vera enna peru???
M:Adu.......adu......she tried to pronounce her name but didnt get properly.....mullllllllalaii.....
K:Mullllllaliyaaa???
He exclaimed as he felt something different on her pronunciation.........
And also the little kids chubby cheeks made this notoriously rugged naughty boy to pinch her cheeks making her wince in pain......
K:Illa.......
M:Eyu???
K:Nee........watermelon........
He proudly gave her the name of latest fruit that he learnt in his school......
M:Apina????
K:apina.....dharboosani.......
M:Boochi........
K:Ama........boochithaan.......
Meanwhile kanna who went to dining hall to steal some snacks for his gang came back with "Appalams"......
Ka:Nna.......
K:Enna da??
Ka:Nakku.......indaa.......To mullai.......inda.......
Mullai looked at kathir.......
He smiled.....
Mullai then took the "papad" that kanna gave her.......
Ka:Nna.......
K:Enna da??
Ka:Erenna???
K:Dharboosani.......sollu.......
Kanna tried hard to spell but in vain.......
K:Boo...sa....ni.......sollu.......
Ka:booni........
Kathir gave a stare to his little brother.......
He then punched him and taught him to spell the same......
When kanna again said "Booni" he had no other go rather than giving up as he lost interest in teaching the name anymore......
K:Ama.....ama......
Ka:Ohh.......naa.....kannu......He said directly to mullai......
Mullai said nothing but smiled.......
K:Velaadalama????
Ka:Ahn.......odi........
K:Illada......appa venaamnnu sonnaru........
Ka:Peechnna.......
K:seri.....kalanam mudinjadhum........ipo vakkandhu........
Ka:with a sad pout cheyi.......
K:Ei boosani.......
M:Enna nn........she closed her mouth remembering something.......
K:Enna???
M:Nna.......chonna.......nna diddum........
K:Ohh.......nee solladha.......
M:yenna.......koopa????
K:Neeyum naanum friend.......sollu........Friend........
M:Bread........
K:Bredilla......friend.......
M:Bread......
K:Eii........even before he could say something and scare her kanna interuppted......
Ka:Nna......velaada......
K:Seri va.......
With that the kids started playing with one another forgetting the naming ceremony happened moments ago........
Keezha vaanga........
K:You know what mulla.......appave ongannanukku onmela possessiveness undu.....Nee vera yaarayum anna nnu koopta avarukku pudikadhu theriyuma????
Mullai said nothing but smiled quietly.......
In an instant kathir remembered his BIL's efforts to unite the family......
With mullai leaning on him enjoying the warmth, his mind automatically drifted to his BIL.....
K:Oi watermelon........
M:Hmm.....
K:Ongappava indha veetukku kootitu vara onganne ennenna senjaaru theriyuma????
M:Ennanga senjuchu???
K:Karaipaar karaithaal kallum karaiyum nra maathiri dhenam pesi pesi ongappava karachurkaaru.....
M:Apdiyanga??
K:Ada amadrenla???
He said in his manly bossy tone making her shy away.......
Kathir understood her mindset......
He then caught hold of her chin and turned to face him.....
K:Beautiful.......
He said in a dreamy tone making her blush more and more.......
K:En mulla.....
M:Hmm......
K:Onganne onkitta idhellam discuss pannama enta pannirkaare onakku kovam varlaya???
M:in a confused tone enakkenga kovam varanum??
K:Illama avaru on kooda porandha anne.......avaru onnaya kekkama onkitta discuss pannama idhellam enta discuss panradhu onakku kovam varlaya???
M:Idhula ennga kovam varum??Anne ongakitta thaana suggestion kettuchu.....
Enta kettalum ongaltta kettalum onnuthaana???
Adhoda namakku oru vishayatha pathi therinja thaana adha pathi nammakitta suggestion keppanga......
Casually denoting what he thinks of their relationship in her mind she made him happy.........
While he continued his conversation......
K:En mulla onakku kudumbatha pathi theriyaadha???
M:Aana kudumbathula ulla problems pathi perusa therinjukkalaye.......
Therinjurndha naa eppavo solve panna try pannirpene........
Adhoda annanum naanum idhellam discuss pannadhilla........
Iniyum pannuvomannu therilaye........

Adhaan sollala......
Idhula naa ennga varuthapadanum???
Kathir looked at his kiddish wife in awe........
He was awestruck by her simple yet thoughtful explanation.......
Mullai was taken aback by his looks......
M:Enn.......ennanga.......thappa edhum sollitena???
K:with a gentle smile pch........pch......romba seriya sollirkka.....
With that he pulled her closer and kissed directly on her lips muttering an "I love you"........
Mullai blushed beet red on his kiss and "I love you".........
Caressing her reddened cheeks with the rear side of his hands he questioned her "Idhukku badhil solra idea irukka illaya madamkku??"
Mullai said nothing but looked at him quietly with varieties of unknown emotions lining up in her mind........
K:Raising his eyebrow Ennama????
Mullai on seeing his gesture forgot his question totally as usual.......
M:Neenga azhaga irukeeha......
Kathir let out a smile on this innocent confession.........
K:Hmm.......apram????
M:Ad........adhu........naa enna kathaiya solren???
K:Parra......raising his eyebrow again......ipdilam pesa theriyuma onakku?????
M:with a pout Ennga naa superah pesuvenga.........
K:Hmm.......hmm.........Nalla pesuva thaan.......
M:Hmm........apdi othukonga.........Ennga..........
K:Solluma........
M:Anne epdinga appava convince pannuchu???
K:Adhuva.........Firstu annaikku onganni roadla mayangi vizhundhu ongappa kondu vittare annaikku 2 naal kazhichu ongappakku onganne phone pannaru......
Ellam enga plan thaan.......
With that he started narrating the things which pugazh told kathir during their telephonic conversation.........
Ellarum mela paarunga.......
Mosquito coil please.......
One fine day......Jana received call from a foregin number.......
He suspected it might be from pugazh......
And at that instant he feared to pick that up thinking of many negative what-ifs with the first one being pugazh's well-being.......
still........
Jan:Hallo.......
Pu:........
Jan:Hallo............dei raja.......En.......magan.......en paiyan pugazh thaana???Hallo.......
Pu:Appa........
Hearing his voice the father heaved a sigh of relief.......
Jan:Happada........nee thaan kooptiya da raja......naa thideernu velinaatulerndhu vandhadhum onakku aabathunnu.........
His words stopped in an instant as it was at that moment he realised what pugazh called him.......
And thats when pugazh continued......
Pu:Epdingappa irukeeha???
Jan:Pugazhu.......
Pu:Appa......
He too was overwhelmed and was not able to speak further........
Jan:Dei raja.....
Pu:Appa......
Jan:Epdiyya irukka???
Pu:Naa nalla...he paused and corrected his statement....ongala yaarayum paakama epdi irukka mudiyudho apdi irukkenppa.....
He said in such a tone that showed tears in it......
Janarthanan teared up visibly.....
Jan:dei.....nee en da ipdi poi kashtapadra????
Pu:Andha veetla sammandham vecha papa kalyanathukku naa onnum seiyamaatennu solliteehaleppa........
Jan:En da kovathula sonna perusa eduthuppiya??
Pu:Naanum edho oru kovathula chithappannu sollitten......Ennaya aayusukkum mannikkave maatteehala???
Jan:Pugazhu.......
Pu:Appa.......
Jan;.........
Pu:.......
Both of them were overwhelmed with various emotions and just like that they ended the call.......
Keezha vaanga please.......
K:Ipdi oru mora pocha......Aduthu rendu naal kazhichu apdiye oru mora callah pottu pugazh avara neenga illama kudumbam romba kashtapadudhuppa nnu oru roundu polambirkaaru......

Ipdi imbuttu vishayam nadandha peragu thaan ongappa malaerangi othukittaru.......
M:Imbuttu nadandhuchanga??she asked him with wide eyed making him pinch her cheeks just the way he did in the childhood.....Caressing the spot he pinched.......ennga killuneeha??she asked in a snivelling tone........
K:Mulla sinungadha.......
M:with a pout oknga......
K:Ama en kaaranam irundha thaan killanuma???
M:Illayanga??
K:Illayenga......
M:Ennga enakku valikkume.......
K:Apdiya valichuchu???
M:Amanga.......
K:Hmm.......idhuve valikudha.......apo en paadu thindaattam thaan.......
M:in a confused tone.....En nga???
K:Idhuve valikudhunnu solriyemma......
M:Valicha valikkudhunnu thaananga solla mudiyum??she asked in her usual confused tone filled with innocence making him tighten his hold on her.......
Mullai squirmed a bit triggering the gentleman with him with other manly desires......
He in a hoarse voice filled with desire asked "watermelon onakku naa paaduna song nenappirukka??"
Mullai who was not at all in her senses nodded a "no" as she's not aware what he was asking....
K:Adhula oru stanza naa annikku paadala??nuzzling her ear Should I??
Mullai breath turned irregular turning him in more.....
He forgetting all his rules and control moved his hand and pressed her hip strongly making her squirm more within his hold......
Kathir lost his total control........He lifted mullai again and placed her on his lap in such a closer distance so as to access her all over........
With her losing her balance and senses on his sudden action she hugged him tightly by his neck making his lips curve with a smile.......
And it was at that instant he placed his hand over her leg and caressed that singing near her ear......
Adadaa kaalgal azhagiya vaazhai......
Ninaithaal manakkum ragasiya cholai.......
Singing so he inhaled a deep sniff on her hair that had a deep fragrance of flowers of his name......
Moving his hand over her leg he caressed her dainty neat fingers.....
Lifting them aside he kissed them while continuing his song for her.......
Nagangal yaavum pirai nilavu.......
Ival thaan ingae kalai nilavu.......
Kissing her here and there occasionally his hands automatically reached over her feet caressing the same.........
Naayagi paadham naayagan vaedham........
Naayagi paadham naayagan vaedham.........
N
eeyae kaadhal thaevaaram........
Vizhigal meeno mozhigal thaeno.......
Nilavin magalae nee thaano........
Pookkalin maelae dhevathai polae......
Neendhi varum mugilo oo oo......
Vizhigal meeno mozhigal thaeno.........
Nilavin magalae nee thaano.......
With that while his hand started caressing and massaging the sole that was on his reach mullai gained consciousness..........
She at that moment stopped his hand for the first time ever in that day making him gain his consciousness back and open his eyes.........
Kathir starred at mullai's eyes directly which showed nothing but immense shyness.........
Then........
Why she stopped????
He raised his eyebrow as if questioning her..........
Mullai leaned over his shoulder hugging his neck tightly........
Kathir gently patted her foot making her place her hand over his one again confusing him to the core........
K:Mulla.......
M:........
K:Mulla.........
M:Hmm........
K:Ennama????
M:Nee.......neenga...........
K:Hmm......naa..........
M:Neenga poi.......en kaalellam.....
Kathir heaved a sigh of relief as within him he was fearing something else........
In a lightened tone.......
K:Pondatti thaana kandippa thodalam.......
M:Illa......neenga.......ennoda.......snivelling tightly.......kaalah thodaadheehalen.....kochama irukku.......
K:in a deep tone Anga thodradhu mattum thaan koochama irukka????En matha edathulallam thodaila??
Mullai was taken aback on his question and tone......
K:I meant kaiya thaan ma.......
He said in a flirteceous tone which openly said he didnt mean that.........
But what he meant........
Innocent mullai gave a questioning look to innocent author who didnt know what to say.......
M:Ad....adhu..........
K:Adhoda......pondattiya kattipudikaila kaalah pudikardhu enna thappu????
He asked his next question making her squirm in shyness........
K:Pch.....mulla kandapadi asanju melum kelappi vidadhu......apram kaanja maattukku kambangallaiya kaatuna kadha thaan.........
M:in a confused tone Apdinna???
K:Eii........idhu oru saadharana pechuvazhakku..........idhu kuda theriyaadha????
M:Ipdilam pechuvazhakku irukkanga????
K:Sutham........
M:Ennanga??
K:Onnumillama......onnume illa.......
M:Hmm.......adhukku ennanga artham???
K:Arthama kekkara.....irukku onakku........oru nalla pasila kaanju kedakkara maadukku nee nalla kambankollaiya kaatuna adhu enna seiyum???
M:Paanju poi saapdum........
K:Hmm.......Kaanju paanju.....Nalla rhyming thaan......Anyways......adhey kadha thaan.......naa nalla pasila kaanju kedakkara maadu......
Before he could explain properly she interrupted in her usual tone filled with innocence...
M:Aiyayo.....en nga pasikudhu........kanji pathalaiya??Naa venna ammatta solli edhum senju thara sollava???
K:shocked Edhu????
M:Amanga.......irunga varen......neenga vidungalen.......
K:Total waste.......apo onakku puriyala??
M:confused tone Ennanga puriyala???
K:Iru puriya vekkaren.......
With that he lifted her more and threw her on the cot........
Hovering over her he smeared himself completely on her kissing her directly on her lips......
Mullai's eyes in an instant opened with wide shock.......
Moments ticked.......
When kathir lifted himself to look at her eyes.......
Her eyes showed........
A tinge of fear.......
Making him........
Roll his eyes in irritation..........
While they both were playing this unsaid hide and seek with romance........
Here......
Janarthanan...........
Returned home with worry painted on his face........
As the words his brother spoke moments ago........
Echoed with his mind.......Again and again.......
TBC........
