You Play A Role In My Rhythm (Tanglish) [COMPLETED ✔️]

Birthday Gift

Shalini's POV:

I placed the food items on the dining table, much to the dismay of my siblings.

"Neenga itha sapdanum nu oru compulsion illa, but order panna vida maaten" I warned them.

"Violin ah odachum nee thirunthala la? Unakellam yethuku di intha pozhappu?" Okay, now Lekha dragged my violin in the midst. I can't take this!

"Madhu, rendu perayum kitchen kulla izhuthutu vaa" I insisted and she followed me, bringing my sisters inside and holding them as tight as possible.

I heated the stainless steel spatula in a very high flame much to their shock.

"Naaka neetunga illati kai ah kaatunga, renduthula onnu kandippa seyal pada kudathu!" I pointed the spatula at them.

"Hey Shalini, unna kondruven!" Shiva threatened.

"Vanga annane, aduthathu neenga than!" I brushed off his statement.

"Ithukellam naa bayapada maaten! Un violin vechu nee daily engala torture pannathuku than odachom" he growled trying to get off from Ram's custody.

"Ram, avanayum kutitu vaa!" he further added to my fury.

But the sound of the reverse horn indicated that my father is parking his car. I signalled Madhu to get out from here with Ram and Krish through the emergency exit at the backside of the house. At first, they hesitated to leave me alone with my siblings but I forced them to go.

"Appa vantaru di, unnala onnum kizhika mudiyathu!" Rekha shoved off my hand and the spatula fell on my right foot, shit it's paining so hard!

They opened the main door to let my father and Preethi's family inside.

I turned on the wash basin tap and relaxed my foot with a cloth damped in cool water, ugh this is gonna take a while.

I came out of the kitchen and greeted Preethi & her parents. As usual my father was shocked on seeing me but kept it within himself.

"Shalini, unaku kaal vali eppadi iruku?" Shiva started the act.

"Ippo paravala" I replied trying to control my anger.

"Athu onnu illa Preethi, akka ku kaal la soodu patruchu...pavam" Lekha maintained with sarcastic innuendo.

"Burnol potingala Shalini?" Preethi was concerned.

"Cool water irukacha yethuku burnol butanol nu? Seri airuchu Preethi" I replied and smirked at Lekha.

The moment Preethi's father informed that my father didn't mention me before, I managed the situation "Dad always mentions his kids when they are with him, appo thana oru closeness irukum? Annan thangachi avarodaye irukanga. Naa konja naal ennoda friend veetula irunthen. Iniku morning than inga vanthen, antha santhoshathula enna pathi solla vittutaru"

"Aamanga, Shalini BBA mudichutu oru auditor ah vela pakura. Veetulaye chella ponnu na ava than" when dad mentioned me like this, Lekha started coughing and secretly chuckled behind.

Even if dad really meant it or not, I took his words as a compliment.

My phone rang and guess what, it's Vikram! Calling me after a long time!

"Excuse me" I left to the dining hall and picked up the phone.

"Happy birthday akkavey!" he wished me.

"Thanks thambi, but enaku un mela kovam" I pouted.

"Yen, midnight wish pannala nalaya?"

"Usually appadi thana pannuva, work irunthalum. Po da!" I said while smiling.
