Dhanam turned around to that sweet voice
An equally sweet looking girl stood in front of her
Yaarunga
Yen peru Mullai
Sollunga
Inga velai ethaachum gaali irukkuma
Acho illeengale..ithu kudumba thozhil..ippo Thaan aarambichu oru varusham aaguthu..ore oru aal thevai pattuchu..ippo thaan sontha kaara ponna vara sonnen..
Oh seri..
Something about her
Mullai Dhanam called
Ahn
Oru tea kudiyen
Mullai smiled
Ille venaam..naan varen and she walked away
Dhanam would have forgotten this incident but she bumped into her again in the temple a week later
Found her sitting leaning on one of the temple pillars..lost to the world..
Something about her expression..it was so bleak that Dhanam's heart went out to the girl
That night at dinner
Kathiru namma Aishu kaalaiyum rathirilayum varaa..mathiyam lunch koottam naanum Meena vum thaan paarkkarom..
Kashtama irukka anni
Ille kashtam ngartha vida Mullai nu oru ponnu..Aishu va pesi mudichathum kadaikku vanthu velai irukkuma nnu ketta ..athaan mathiyathukkum rathiri dinner preparation kum antha ponna vechukkalaamaa yosikkaren
Kattupadiyaagumaa anni
Theriyale
Hmm 15 varushama namma kadailaye avvalavu yosippom aal poda..neenga enna na aarambichu 1 varusham kooda aagale athukkulla 2 aalu..ithellam agala kaal sollitten Moorthy muttered
Ungalukke nichayama theriyalenna..Appuram yen anni aal podanum sollareenga Kathir asked
Dhanam was miffed by Moorthy's muttering..and said nothing
Kathiru saappaadu mudinjathum ithu pesunga..anni neengalum saappidunga Jeeva interjected
Kathir took the cue and continued eating
After dinner the 2 younger brothers and anni sat talking
Ippo sollunga anni
Ille antha ponnu Mullai..ennavo velai kudukkanumnu thonichu
Kathir looked at his anni..she was speaking based on emotions he could see ..his anni could be like that he knew
Anni mathavangalukku nallathu pandra alavukku namma mess valarale..athe samaiyam ippothaikku antha ponna mathiya neram mattum vara sollunga..athukkethapadi sambalamum kammiya thaan irukkum..athukku ok na serattum.. muzhu neram velai tharatha paarthu pinnadi yosikkalaam
Hmm seri da..athu
Antha Mullai kitta appudi enna paartheenga anni Jeeva smiled
Oru vaaram munnadi vantha..nethu marupadiyum koil la paarthen..vaazhkaiye tholaicha mathiri ukkanthu kittu iruntha ..athaan manasu kekkala
Hmm seri anni neenga antha ponna vara sollunga
And they went in to sleep
Dhanam did not see Mullai for another week
Mullai sat in her single room home..all alone..staring at nothing..her savings would see her through for another year at least..but after that what she wondered
Should she go to a larger city like Chennai..
She really didn't know why she had come to this town of all places..
She was educated..she could easily find a well paying job in a corporate she knew.. if she went to Chennai..
Heaving a sigh she got up and locking the house she started walking towards the market area
Dhanam had gone with Murugan appa to buy some vegetables and she saw Mullai walking towards them
Hi Mullai she smiled
Neenga
Pandian mess..annikku vanthirunthiye
Ahn sorry sattunnu nenaivukku varale
Parava ille
Velai kedaichuducha
Innum ille
Enna panna pore
Chennai ku polaamaannu yosikkaren
Oh Dhanam's brow knitted
Hmm periya oor na innum easy ah velai kedaikkum la athaan
Hmm..enga mess la oru arai naal velai irukku.mathiya saappaadu neram mattum..sambalamum athukku etha padi kudukka mudiyum..
Athu pothum ..ippove kooda varen Mullai was all eager
Seri vaa Dhanam smiled
She almost felt at peace
Mullai inga vanthu tiffin sappittu lunch velai mudiyare varaikkum iru..oru 4 -5 mani varaikkum irunthu velai mudichuttu..nee kelambalaam
Ahn seri madam
Ethukku madam ellam..en peru Dhanam..akka nu kooppidu ille per solli kooppittaalum ok thaan
Naan akka nne kooppidaren
And Mullai started work at the hotel
She followed instructions to the T..and was quite hard working
But what Dhanam loved was her willingness to do all work..from prepping to cooking to tea station handling to clearing tables, washing vessels she did all jobs willingly
She even went with Murugan appa for shopping
But the best was the way the babies took to her
Dhanam and Meena did not have to worry about them at all..
They clung to Mullai who became a child herself with them
She seemed the happiest when around them
At home after about a week
Appa ippo thaan nimmathi Kathiru..kadaila Aishu vum seri Mullaiyum seri nalla set aayittaanga..avvalavu uthavi ya irukku
Set aayittaanganna nallathu thaan anni Kathir smiled
Hmm innum konja naal la paaren mess nalla laabagaramaa pogum Dhanam smiled
Nichayamaa anni

Things moved in a lazy pace
