Not A Plan
>>>>———— ♥️ ————<<<<

Yenna da time iruku?

( What time do you have?)

Vasundhara asked Siddharth over the phone to which he scowled,

Engaluku kalyanam agi ippodhan rendhra varsham agudhu

( It's only been two and a half years since we've been married)

Siddharth's expression turned stern as he addressed Vasundhara, making it clear that he didn't want her to blow this matter out of proportion. He understood his mother's tendency to plot, and recognizing the importance of addressing the issue head-on, Siddharth decided to have a conversation and put an end to it before Vasundhara could start weaving her schemes.

Adhei, ana ippove plan panna start pannadhan da correct'ah irukum

( but you should start planning by now)

Siddharth clicked his tongue,

Ma! Nanga yenna building ah katta porom?

( Ma! It's not like we're going to build a building?)

Vasundhara pouted,

Inga paaru, indha oru vishiyam achum nadhaka vendhiya time la nadhakanumnu paakrom, yendha planning um theva illa. Adhu varaikum nee konja summa iru

( look, we want this one thing to happen in the right time, with no plannings, so don't you think of plotting anything)

Appo kekravanga kittalam yenna solradhan?

( Then what should I tell all the people who ask questions?)

Vasundhara asked mockingly to see what Siddharth would answer,

Avanga velaiya modhalla paaka sollu

( Ask them to mind their businesses)

Neha?

Hmm?

How do you plan a pregnancy?

Neha almost choked on air when asked such a question out of nowhere when they were taking their night walk in the neighbourhood park.

It's all that's been running on his brain since his mother mentioned. How does a "planned pregnancy" work? Don't these things just happen?

Yenna kelvi idhu?

( What kind of question is that?)

Illa nee doctor dhane, konjam sollen

( I mean you're a doctor, you should know)

I'm a cardiologist Siddharth

Yenna yelavo, enaku yellam onnu dhan, solluma!

( Whatever, it's all same for me, please explain!)

Siddharth let out a playful whine, causing Neha to shake her head with a smile. She then began to explain how most people these days choose to use protection until they're ready to start a family. She added that conception usually doesn't happen immediately, which is why some couples start planning ahead.

When Neha finally turned around, she found Siddharth staring at her, his eyes wide with surprise. It made her wonder, what on earth had he been expecting? Did he think babies were delivered by storks or magically appeared out of thin air?
