Sujan and Pragyan came. Karthik started to serve them coffee.
Pragyan- "ungaluku yaen anna siramam. naan poduraen."
Karthik- "ithula enna da iruku? unaku thane poduraen. amam, Priyanka enna major?". Pragyan answered.
Sujan looked at Athulya with a concern look. Athulya smiled and blinked stating that she is fine. Sujan too smiled. Pragyan went near Athulya, caressed her head, and raised his eyebrow. She nodded as no and smiled with a wink. Pragyan smiled understanding her.
Karthik gave coffee to Pragyan and Sujan.
At the same time, Vinay and Logan entered. They all greeted them. Pragyan started to drink coffee. Sujan and Athulya exchanged glances giving a meaningful look.
Vinay- "ellam okay vaa papa? romba sorry papa.". Athulya nodded.
Logan- "ellam pasanga sonanga. nee onum kavalapadatha papa, ellam sari agidum. nethu nadanthathaye ninachutu irukatha papa. kandipa siddhan unna nalla paathupaan. nanga konjam avana olunga pathukitu iruntha ipadi nadanthirukaathu sorry papa."

Karthik- "ethunalum enga kita sollu papa. avan pecha kekatha.". Athulya smiled at him.
Karthik- "dei, Logan. priya papa va un company la sethuko daa. velaiku try panitu irukalam. un team la podu. "
Logan looked at Pragyan and said, "resume anupu prajju. ******* en phone number, contact pannu. naan ready panitu solren , intha week mudichudalam."
Pragyan widened his eyes in shock and then furrowed his eyebrows thinking about it.
Karthik- "muthallayae sollanumnu ninaichaen. irunthalum, neengala try panatum nu vituten. pullaya romba alaya vidatha da. pavam entha interview ku thaan anupuva."
Logan- "enaku thangatchi ellam illa. naan Priya va en thangatchi pola pathupaen. nambikai iruntha anupu Prajju"

Vinay- "athu ellam nanga pathukarom kulanthaiah. nee anupu". Pragyan nodded and smiled at his words. Ofcourse she is a kid.
Pragyan, Athulya and Sujan exchanged glances with a smile. Pragyan felt a relieved and happy to have them. At the same time they heard a shouting sound in Siddhik's room. Siddhik is shouting. Karthik ran from his room. Siddhik is following him, chasing him.
Siddhik- "dei nillu daa.. uthachidu oodina vitruvena?"
Karthik hide behind Logan and said, "apadi enna panniduva? dei avana pudinga daa..."
Vinay caught Siddhik and started to tickle. Siddhik escaped from him, waving his body and moved away from him, but Logan caught him and they both started to tickle him. Siddhik fell down but Vinay and Logan caught him and the trio fell down safely. They started to roll over and tickle him. Karthik too joined them. They shouted and kicked each other. All are smiling, Siddhik laughed out loud with Vinay, Logan and Karthik.
Athulya, Sujan and Pragyan looked at them without blinking. They know they are close but not at this level. Never at this level.
(AN: Imagine Siddhik instead of baby girl.)
Siddhik in between his giggling and laughing, "vidu daa.. dei vidunga daa"
Vinay- "enna thillu iruntha varama irupa.. inaiku unna enna panren paaru"
Siddhik- "ini pogala da.. dei vidunga daa, mudiala daa.. "
Logan- "vitta thanada nee poratha pathi yosipa.. inaiku unna... ", He started to tickle his feet too.
Siddhik- "Rakshaaa.. Rakshaaa... dei, Rakshaaa ... kaapathu... paaru da ivanungala"
Rakshan - "dei imsaigala enthiringa mothalla.. vidunga daa kutty ah.. avan inum coffee kooda kudikala daa.. ". no one listened.
Rakshan- "ipo enthirikalana oruthanukum veetla soru kidaiyathu"
Karthik- "order panikalam, poo daa",
Siddhik managed and pulled Rakshan towards them and said, "kaapathu daa".
Others started to tickle Rakshan too, once Siddhik pulled him. All four men are playing like kids. They are tickling, rolling, kicking, fighting, giggling, laughing and also scolding each other. But Siddhik got more importance here. They are targeting him.
Rakshan- "adei enna vidunga da, theriama ulla vanthutaen"
Siddhik- "rakshaaaa please kaapathu"
Logan- "vida matom kutty ... unna"
Siddhik- "dei anga ellam thodatha.. pakki, vidu daa.. rakshaa inga paaru"
Rakshan- "enna kaapatha ve aal venum polave.. adei erumaiangala.. dei kutty ennaya korthu vidura.. ipo paaru. "
Siddhik whined, giggled and waved his body for their touches.
Vinay- "dei enna da ipadi sinungi sirikura.. weakness ah anga vachurukiah?"
Karthik- "dei vinay avan thalaya pudi daa, logu, avan kuthula oothu.."
Siddhik- "ayyo vendam, vidunga vidunga Karthik vidu daa,please .. pisasu, vidu daaa.."
(AN: Four men like below)
Siddhik- "pothum.", he panted heavily and said, "pothum please... ennala mudiala"., he struggled to catch his breathe.
The four men stopped the teasing and fell on Siddhik.
Siddhik- "adei chi thalli padunga daa"
Vinay- "mudiathu poda.. ini nee jogging ku kooda ooda koodathu.."
Siddhik- "dei moochu muttuthu enthiri eruma.."
They all separated from him and lied next to him. All four started to laugh and smiled after relaxing themselves. Automatically Logan and Vinay rolled over and hugged Siddhik tightly. Rakshan and Karthik got up and moved away.
Vinay with tears, "romba miss panom daa.."
Logan- "ini poganum nu ninacha kooda kondruven daa"
Siddhik- "ipove atha thaan da panikitu irukeenga.. konjam thallunga daa... Rakshaa, raksha.. enna amukuranga.."
Rakshan came there, kicked the trio and said, " enthiringa daa eruma maadugala.. chinna pullaiga mathiri adichukitu.. dei inum avan coffee kooda kudikala daa.. "
Karthik gave his hand to them and one by one they got up. Siddhik took deep breathe and leaned on Karthik. He gave him coffee.
Karthik - "pallu thechitiah?"
Siddhik- 'haan, haan.. nethu kooda thechaen.."
Rakshan -"serupu pinchidum. dei coffee ah vangu daa.. muthalla poi pallu thechutu vaa daa paradhesi.", Karthik took the coffee from his hand back.
Siddhik glared at Karthik and said, "thechutu varum pothu thana da uthachaa apuram ethuku pudungura.. Rakshaa, avan enna uthachutaan naan velila varum pothu ennanu kelu daa ..Rakshaa, inga paaru da, coffee ah thara matikuraan.", he bought his coffee back

Siddhik- "inaiku thaan late agiduchu.", he looked at Sujan and asked, "sujju green tea kudichutiah?"

Siddhik went inside drinking coffee to prepare green tea for Sujan.
Karthik- "appo naan coffee kudukum pothu vanginiyae atha enna da panna". Sujan and Athulya exchanged glances.
Siddhik- "atha yaathu kudichurupa.. ava coffee addict daa, oru kudam koduthalum kudipa. ipo than kammi paniruka.. Sujju vendam nu ellam solla matan. amaithiah vangitu pooi ava kita koduthuruvaan."
Athulya smiled sheepishly at them. Sujan gave him a get caught look. Karthik slapped his forehead.
Logan- "Priyanka va en office la join panna solirukaen"
Siddhik- "un office la vela jasthi ah irukum, ava kulanthai da, avlo stress ellam avalala thanga mudiathu. ava vanthathe Prajju voda time spend panna thaan, kulanthaia paduthi eduthuduveenga."

SIddhik- "hmm, paathu da bathram. suthama avaluku vivaram pathathu. yaruvum avala kindal panama pathuko". Vinay and Logan nodded.
Siddhik- "break time ellam thaniah vidatheenga. ". Vinay and Logan nodded.
Siddhik- "avaluku adikadi pasikum, paathu vangi kodu.. apuram, dei Karthik.."
Karthik- " Enna da?"
Siddhik- "prajju avanoda new show ku idea varama thinaritu irunthaan. nee ennanu paaru daa, nee oru app onnu create pannala, atha use panna mudiuma nu check pannu... prajju ivana kelu, ivan ethavathu help panuvaan. ivanuku field knowledge kasthi."
Pragyan and Karthik nodded. Siddhik gave green tea to Sujan. Sujan got it from him and had it.
Siddhik- "Rakshaa, nee sujju vaa pathuko. ava kita vidatha"
Sujan- "enna ellam avalala onum panna mudiathu."
Siddhik smirked, caressed his head and said, "nee enna polave iruka pala visayathula. nama rendu perukumae orae weakness thaan. naan aluthathe pothum, sujju. nee risk edukatha. ava onum avlo important illa, naama handle panrathuku. unaku life la panrathuku neriah mukiamana visayam iruku.

Siddhik- "apadi nee kandipa intha visayathula involve aganumna athuku Malar othukanum.."

Siddhik- "ava thane da unoda sari paathi. deepika romba drama pannuva, nalaiku unakum Malar kum problem varalam ithunala. sonna purinchuko. Malar kita pesu, athuku apuram ithula irangu.. "
Rakshan- "papa kastapadurathu pothatha, inum ethuku Malar ah vera kastapaduthanum. deepika oru visa pambu. epo savadipanae solla mudiathu. unaku ithu vendam Sujju, sonna kelu, naan pathukaren"
Sujan- "naan malar kita pesaren.", he ended the conversation. Siddhik and Rakshan looked at each other.
Siddhik- "pathuko daa, ivan kovakaran. control panrathu kastam."
Rakshan- "nee sollanuma , naan pathukaren. sari naanga veetuku kilambarom. poitu office ku kilambanum"
Siddhik hide his sadness and smiled. But his eyes conveyed it. Athulya noticed everything. Sujan and Pragyan glanced at each other.
Rakshan- "adikadi varom daa, mugatha apadi vachukatha..". Siddhik nodded.
Karthik- "papa va pathuko da.". Siddhik nodded.
Vinay- "iniaku college pogatha leave podu". Siddhik nodded.
Logan- " inaiku oru nalaiku velila sapadu vangiko daa. Romba stress eduthukatha." Siddhik nodded.
Rakshan- "varom papa, ethunalum call pannu". Athulya nodded.
Karthik- "nanga thaan varanum nu illa, neengalum anga varalam papa", Athulya chuckled nodded as yes.
Four men bid bye to everyone and went. Sujan and Pragyan too went to their portion to get ready for office. Athulya closed the door.
Siddhik returned to hall and sat on the sofa.
Siddhik- "TV pakalama?". Athulya nodded and leaned on him. Siddhik turned towards her, back hugged her placing his hand on her waist.
Athulya- "TV pakanum daa Siddhu, vambu panatha"
Siddhik- "thalli irunthu thaan TV pakanum nu illa.. vaa di. senthu pakalam.. theatre la paatha thaan pakathula irupiah?"
Athulya chuckled and leaned more.
Athulya- "Sujju va vendam nu sonna, enna onum soalala"
Siddhik- "Naan thaan un plan ku okay solidutaenae.. nee enna senjalum enaku okay thaan"
Athulya- "deepika va enna senjalum ah?"
Siddhik- "yaara enna senjalum enaku okay thaan.."
Athulya- "nijamava?"
Siddhik- "nee ennayave enna senjalum enaku okay thaan. venum na test panni pakuriah. ", his hand snacked below her dress.
Athulya- "dei summa iru"
Siddhik- " yeaen intha shirt pudikalaya? nethu mari kaladidatuma?"
Athulya whined and turned towards him and started to beat him . Siddhik leaned towards her and started to kiss her, holding his hands with his. He then slowly moved below and kissed her neck.
They both looked at each other intensely, smiled and for the name sake TV is telecasting the programs. The couples are enjoying their intense and peace.
