When I arrived home that evening, Anna, Appa, and Mom were engrossed in an argument, while Akka and Aththan were attempting to reason with them and encourage them to discuss the matter patiently. They didn't even notice me as I stood in their midst.

After observing their argument for a few minutes, I discovered that Anni's father had arranged her marriage with someone from their relatives as soon as my parents left their home and confined her in their home. Anni was now ready to elope with the support of her brother and mother, and the current argument was about where to take Anni after she eloped until their marriage and when to plan their wedding.

Anna, in anger, exclaimed, "Amma, anga avala adachi vachirukanga endha contactum illama, eppo enna aagum nu therila, ava thambi dha enakey inform pannan. Chinna paiyan avanala evlo naal avanga appa annana edhirthu avala paathuka mudium nu nenaikira?

Ippo poi nalla naal pathudha, veetuku kootitu varanum nu solra? ava odi vara pora, adhuku epdi nalla naal paaka mudium?

Kalyanam agura varaikum inga iruka kudadhunu solra, ennaum kalyanathuku munnadi ava kuda sendhu velia enagum stay panna kudadhunu solra, appo avala enga ma thania vida solra? ellathaum vittu vara ma, idhula thania vera yarum ilama engayo irukanum na epdi ma, pavam illaya ma?

Ava kelambhi varatum nee vena un room la stay panna vachiko, ila Sakthi or Shri room la vachiko, na ava pakamey pogamaten ma kalyanam varaikum."

Amma responded by pointing out, "Kalyanathuku munnadi onna orey veetla ellam rendu pethaum vachika mudiadhu da."

"Appo na vera engayadhu, stay pannikiren, ava inga irukattum," he shot back.

Mom countered," Avala thania irukka sollanum nu enakum aasa illa da. Veetuku marumagala kootitu vara time, nalla nerama paathu, kalyanam panni kutitu varanum nu nenaikradhu enna thappu? As a mother, I will also have some expectations about my firstborn's marriage. Kalyanam panna porapo nee veetla illama velia stay panna, unaku panna vendia sadangu ellam enga poi epdi panradhu ? Unga rendu pethaum kalyanathuku munnadiye inga veetla onna vachikita ellam thappa pesa matangala da?

Unaku innum rendu thangachi irukanga. Sakthi vidu chinna ponnu aana Shri ku kalyanam pannama epdi unaku panradhu? Idhu normal kalyanam na kuda ok, aana odi vandhudha pannanum.

Maapla veetla ellam enna nenaipanga? enna pesuvanga? Already avara avanga veetla madhikala, naama inum avara thappa pesadha chance erpadu panni thandha madri irukkum ne solradhellam panna. Naalaiki Sakthi ku kalyanam panrapo idhellam prechanaya vandhu ninna enna da panradhu? Konjam wait pannu yosichu decide pannalam nu solren, aana nee edhuku ivlo avasara pattu sanda podra nu enaku purila. Avasarathla yosicha onnum thonadhu."

I sat quietly beside my father and whispered, "Appa na oru idea sollata?"

He nodded, and I continued, "Pesama Anniya thatha veetla or periappa veetla vitrunga, adhuku nalla neram paakanum, Kalyanam pannanum nu avasiam illala?

Aduthu thania epdi irupanga theriadha veetlanu dhaney anna ku prechana? Periappa veetla Ramya irukka, venuna avanga kuda na, illa akka anga stay pannipom. Thatha veedu na, I will stay with anni, appo appo vandhu pathukonga.

Aparam aththan dha business start pannitaru renovation work mudia pogudhu, also like he asked 3 to 6 months for marriage, 3 masam dha aiduchey, so avangalukkum sethu pannidunga, aththan relatives ku vishyam therinja dhaney edadhu pesuvanga? Theria munnadi kalyanam mudichita avangala aparam paakaporadhu illala? ask Aththan.
