Nyaabagam Varuthe

Un Paasam Naan Ariven

Kathir stood culling the urge he had to rub his eyes..

He couldn't believe what he was seeing

He stood gaping at her..

He had just now informed his anni in the backyard that he was going to Murugan maamaa's house to bring Mullai back

He had not noticed her in the kitchen on his way to the room

He was happy but before a smile could form on his lips he saw her eyes spewing fire

Oh tea kuduthu sandai poda poraa ..sooper he thought to himself

He turned around to face her..arms crossed, legs at ease and an eyebrow arched

If anything Mullai squared her shoulders and stood tall

Tea inthaanga she muttered

He stood not moving

Enna paarkkareenga avvalavu seekkiram ellam enna ozhuchu katta mudiyathu..naan inga thaan unga kooda thaan iruppen ..

She placed the cup on the shelf with a plonk and looked at the mess the spilling tea created on the shelf with dismay..venturing a hooded look at him she continued

Ippudi puruvatha thookki vechukitta bhayanthuduvoma ..enakkonnum bhayam ille..

Saying this she swirled around and made a show of stomping out of the room

But once outside the door she literally ran to the backyard and leaned against the wall there in an attempt to calm her heart

She just couldn't understand what had come over her..she had begun leaving him sweet messages of apology..well she had afterall called him names and did owe him an apology..and he was right she knew he had not heard those messages ..but she had still lost her patience and spoken harshly yet again

It was like she had no control

When he had called her she had answered it almost immediately with all intent to apologise..but there had been no space for that..

Initially she was crestfallen thinking he was livid with her

But then she realised not with her but what she said ..the same thing one might argue..but she felt no..what she spoke had definitely irritated him..put him in a foul mood ..sure..but his fondness for her she was confident about..he had called..given her the comfort she needed..it had taken some time but she arrived at the correct conclusion that he was not annoyed with her but her words had definitely irked him

She had then decided that she would come back home first thing in the morning

She hadn't even packed her bag..she had just left..in fact she had told her parents that she was going to the temple..she would tell them she had come here once she could assess his mood she had decided

Only after she came here she realised there was no way he would send her back..that had been quite unnecessary really

She smiled at her own folly..

She decided to call her mom

Hello amma..

Hello Mullai..sollu dee..enga irukka

naan inga veettukku vanthen..avuhala paarkka

Oh seri..appo angaye irukka poriya ille thirumba variya

Ingaye irukken ma she said in a small voice

Plan panni kelambi poi irukka appudi thaane

Appudi ille ma..konjam kavalai ya irunthuchu..avara nerla paarthutta seri aayidum athaan
