No way !
Kathir declared high in a firm voice .
Sadha and Uma looked helplessly at each other .
The three of them were sitting in the guest / attenders room next to the room where Ranganathan was admitted .
Since the time he opened his eyes he had wanted to see Kathir only first and had asked him to stay beside him itself .
Even without the old man s request , Kathir seemed to have no idea of leaving his sick granddad' s side .
He was beside attending to him though a mini battalion of staff nurses were appointed to take care of Mr Ranghanathan .
The problem wasn't that .
Now the old man had enquired about Kathir s wife for which Kathir had given a befitting reply without disclosing the divorce issue .
But it didn't stop with it .
The elderly man wanted to see her .
He was diagnosed with active block and was advised a CABG surgery once he was bit stable . The doctors had given a cut off of few months for it .
Now with that request of Ranganathan , Sadha had asked Kathir to bring Mullai to Chennai atleast for once ,to present before his old dad .
Kathir refused curtly ! !
Sadha : Kathira ....yenpa ipadi vettu onu ,thundu renda pesura .
Unaku thaatha mela evlo paasamnu nenachen,
Uyira kodukra alavuku erukunu perumaiya , Vikki kitta kooda solluvoom .Sadha tried to act sentimentally !
Uma hit her forehead with the way Sadha enacted dramatically .
Kathir wasn't moved at all ... instead he retorted back with a more sentimental drama than his mama .
Kathir : C'mon maams. Thaatha mela enaku illatha paasama ?
Awarkaaga naan en uyira kandipaa kodupen !Sadha : Apuram yen intha Adam pidikara ?
Antha pullaiya kootitu vara vendiyatha thana ?
Awara Kannu mullichu kettathu athanae .Kathir didn't speak for sometime .then he saif in a small voice ,
Kathir : Thaathakaaga ennaiya enna venumnaalum panna sollunga , panren.
But not this ,
Enaku sontham illatha.....he choked suddenly unable to continue more ,then said clearly , antha ponna enaala ipo kootitu vara mudiyaathu .
Sorry maams !His voice was so stern .
Sadha : Yenda ipdi urumura ? Antha ponna ? Athu unaku enna paavam pannuchu !
Nalla pulla ....thaatha ku ipdi , unaiya theduraaru ma , oru nadai vanthu awara paathutu poirumaanu sonna pothum , vanthrum ...
Atha poi ...
Paavam da !Sadha said , knowing Mullai s soft and tender heart .
He was sure that she would immediately come on knowing about the old man s ill-health .
But he didn't understand why Kathir was so adamant and refusing to bring her here .
Just for a day or so !
Kathir didn't speak again .
Sadha continued ranting ,
Sadha : Enna , kaalaila oru flight pudicha araimani nerathulla , Chennai ku vanthrulaam .
Appa va paathutu adutha flight layae kondu poi vitralaam .
Ithuku yen da unaku ivlo ego ?
