Avanum Ivalum Naduvule Nanum

Chapter 11

Saritha eyed the music room and the bedroom.

" Rendu room um close ah irruke...inthe allu yenthe room le irrukane teriyeleye," Saritha muttered.

She bite her fingernails and turned around, watching the boy and the dog eating their lunch heartily.

Saritha sighed and smiled softly watching the boy's happy expression and the dog's intense tail wagging as they both eat hurriedly and sloppily.

' Rendayum partha rombhe naal sapdathe mathiri behave panathunge...Yaar thaan Ivan appa amma,' Saritha thought to herself as she watched them.

Her eyebrows furrowed as she heard wailing from within Anirudh's room. She exhaled her breath and grabbed the bottle before walking towards the hall.

Saritha raised her eyebrows as she saw Anirudh hurrying out of the room. Anirudh stopped in his steps as he saw her inches away from his room door. Saritha swallowed her saliva and handed him the bottle while Anirudh shook his head and dragged her away slightly.

" Hey yenna-" Saritha began when Anirudh clamped her mouth and dragged her away towards the sofa.

Saritha's eyes widened while Anirudh looked anxious as he looked at her. He let out a groan when the baby began wailing louder. He shook his head when the dog barked and trotted towards his room.

" Naaya! Poga! F**k!" Anirudh groaned and ran towards the room while Saritha stood there bewilderedly.

She frowned as she heard voices coming from the room while the dog whined and Anirudh let out a nervous chuckle.

" Yennava irrukum;" Saritha mumbled to herself as she took small steps towards the room.

" Oh ho...ithan vishayama," Saritha said out softly as Anirudh was talking to a woman on zoom.

" Aiyo amma!  Oh wait Amma...Ah tho...Things lam vangitingala ? Baby rombhe aluthutu iruntha...Unge dog thaan pacify panna parthan," Anirudh said with a bright smile as he turned and looked at Saritha.

" Huh yena-" Saritha began when Anirudh took the baby and passed her to Saritha.

" Baby ke milk vangitingala ? " Anirudh asked Saritha to frowned at him as she pat the baby's bum, calming her down.

* Say yes* Anirudh mouthed to Saritha who narrowed her eyes.

She glanced at the laptop and saw a shrewd woman eying her. Saritha cleared her throat and gave a simpering smile to Anirudh.

" Ille veliya poga mudiyele sir...Anthe police officer kitte help keturuken. Thank you for watching her." Saritha gritted out while Anirudh nod.

" No problem, apidye veliya poga mothu door mattum close panirunge," Anirudh told Saritha who smiled and stepped on his feet.

Anirudh closed his eyes as he tried to control his pain while Saritha sweetly said goodbye and left.

" Deyh anthe dog ange thaan irruke," The woman from the computer said while Anirudh cleared his throat.

" Avanuku yennode music naa pudikum ma athan irrukan aprom poiruvan," Anirudh said with a charming smile while Saritha snorted as she feed the baby on the couch.

" Yaar da athu...yethuku née stranger lam veetuku vidure ?" Lakshmi said with a stern voice while Anirudh cleared his throat.

" Yennode opposite neighbour ma, pavom husband lockdown ke one day munadi thaan vitutu poitan," Anirudh said while Saritha turned her face towards the room.

She glared at Anirudh who ignored her determinedly as he looked only at the laptop.

" Irunthalum ippo ulle situation ke ithu not good!" Lakshmi told Anirudh who rubbed the back of his neck.
