AN: This is a continuation of the one shot. Again just for fun. Please wait for a day or two for the other serious story. Thank you for your support and comments.
Vetri makes tea and marinates the chicken for soup. Quarter brings the tea things for Vetri into the room.
V: Quarteru! Vechuttu kilmabuda! Avalukku dressing change pannanum! (and locks the door!)
Meanwhile Kanmani had gone to her room and washed her face after a good cry. She comes out and is going towards Vetri's room.
Quarter: Kanmani! Enga pora? Annan Annikku dress mathanumam! Yaaraiyum vara venamnu sonnaru!
Kan: Ennathu dress mathanuma?
Chi: Amamma! Ava kai adi pattirukku illai?

Pei: Sariya sonna! Avungale 8 varusham kazhichu konjam sumugama irukkanga! Ellarum mathi mathi disturb panna eppadi!
After some 15 min the door opens. Vetri is carrying Abi.
V: Dei Pei! Sofa lenthu ellathayum clear pannuda! Thalagani mattum vai!
He carries her to the sofa! Abi is still wearing Vetri's clothes but with a towel as a dupatta!
Kan: Iyo Vetri! Unga chattai kai kizhinjirukke!
V: Ithai ippo than pakkariya? Kaila kattu potrukku illai? Athanala cut panni pottu vitten! Oru jibba thane! Vera vangikkalam. Dei Sathuram! Kadaila ellam iva inga irukkannu sonniya?

Vetri starts to make the soup and keeps going back and forth arguing with Abi and asking for finer points in recipe.
A: Mothalla antha chicken piece inga konduvanthu kaatu! Eppadi irukkunnu pathuttu than solla mudiyum! Itho paaru! nethikku nadanthathu oru accident!

The gang is now watching this back-and-forth forgetting their own breakfast. Kanmani's father is fully into the arguments and has forgotten his newspaper. Even Kanmani's curiosity is winning over her sadness and disappointment. Now everyone at the dining table is fully looking at the two.
Pei (whispering to the table): Kanmani! Pathiya? Eppadi gap vidama sandai pottukitte soup pathiyum pesaranga paaru! Ithellam romba miss pannittom illai chitappu? Ippo Anni mattum namma koodave iruntha entertainmentukku vera ethuvume venam.

Vetri starts feeding her.

Vetri takes the spoon half way before she finished the spoonful and tastes it.

Kan: (mv Evvalo naalu irukka poraru?) Naan eduthu vaikkattuma?
The gang look at each other and at Kanmani!
Qu: Kanmani! Avungalai vidu! Naane eduthu vaikkaren! Annan ennai thane sonnaru?
Vetri and Abi are busy with the soup and bickering about the ingredients, how he is feeding and how she is eating and so on.
Kanmani sees them eating from the same bowl and spoon, oblivious to others. She holds her chest and falls on her back. As someone catches, she opens her eyes happily only to see that her father is holding her.
After the soup Abi feels better as the fog from painkiller has started clearing. So, just then realises about Sudar and Vetri meeting in her house. Now its her turn to catch her chest and fall and of course, Vetri catches her and is frantic trying to revive her.
Poor Kanmani! The truth is now hitting her hard and is again about to faint but doesn't because, everyone else is around Abi and Vetri tending to them. She silently installs the property app in her phone!
