Akshay barged open the door and the triad looks startled by his sudden outburst.
"Enna aachu da-"
"Are you guys done pulling stupid pranks?" Akshay leans against the doorframe, trying to keep his anger at bay.
"Nee etha solra-" Pretended praba, whose eyes flickered back and forth to Parvathi. She hangs her head low and Ravee looks confused.
"Ayyayo, Epdi da unakku intha maathrila nadikkathonuthu?" Akshay fumes in anger and Parvathi bites her lower lip.
"Inga enna nadakuthu?" Ravee asks, unaware of their pranks.
"Ivanga renduperum ennoda room la rubber snake setpanni saesha ah bayampaduthrkanga" Akshay explains and his gaze lands on his sister. He exhales out loud and walks over to Parvathi.
"Pothum nadichathu. Yen di ipdi panra?"
"Na chumma fun ku-" his sarcastic laugh stops her midway
"Fun ah? She is traumatized by that stupid toy and I had to convince her it was just a toy like for thousand times" He throws up his hands in frustration.The trio was too stunned to speak. They know very well about him masking his emotions and now that he is letting them see his real emotions, they are unable to talk.
"Sorry da. Na theriyama-"
"Nanga.nanum than senthu pannunen. Actual ah nanthan Parvathi antha muttalthananmana idea vey kuduthathu" Praba says, defensively. Parvathi opens and closes her mouth, not knowing what to say.
"Inime intha maathri nadakama na paathukuren" Ravee nods at akshay.

Akshay was too frustrated with himself for being protective towards Saesha but he couldn't digest the thought of anyone hurting her. The pained expression she had when she couldn't let herself believe it was just a toy and nothing real gave away Akshay. He knows there is something behind her that she is notready for anyone to see through her.

Later that day,Saesha walks downstairs, to the living room, to see the elders talking about some sarees they have seen online. She smiles instantly at how lively the living room looked. She quickly decends down the stairs and takes a seat on the couch.
"Pasikkutha ma? Sapdriya-" Asked, an elderly woman who looked exactly like Akhila but a bit older with grey hair.
"Illa aunty. Pasikkala-"
"Juice tharava da? Tired ah iruppa" Voiced another lady, who looked young.
"Illa illa athellam onnumilla-"
"Naanum inga ara maninerama ukkanthrken. Yaarume enkitta vathu onnume kekala" Parvathi whined, pouting. It was then when saesha noticed Parvathi and Ravee sitting just across her.
"Acho, nee ingaya irunthavama. Nee ethuvum ketka vetkampadamaatta. But Sai Ippothanvanthirka. Ethuvum ketkavey oru maathri irukkumla athan da-"
"Ayyo, na chumma sonnen" Parvathi chuckles and walks over to the couch where Saesha is seated and sits beside her.
"Pesi romba naal aanamaathri irukku" Parvathi confesses
"Neenga than madam praba oda busy irukkinga" Saesha smirks and turns her body towards her and looks around the living room to make sure no one is watching them and quietly whispers in Parvathi's ears. "Enna love ah?"
"Chi chi athellam illa" Parvathi's eyes widen and a blush creeps up her neck.
"Your body reactions says otherwise" Saesha chuckles
