"This one looks nicer than that one, Athhai. What do you think?"
Uyir asked showing a set of studs and presented them to her mother-in-law, who was examining the chains...
"Do you prefer that one?" Devaki inquired, to which Uyir responded by nodding her head.
"Then, let's finalize that one. I think this chain would look good on our Yazhkutty..Look at this chain I've chosen" said Devaki, presenting her selection.
Uyir expressed agreement with a thumbs-up. Meanwhile, the ladies were perusing the collection for the perfect anklet, presented by the man who was the general manager of the jewellery shop. This shop was among those owned by Tisya, and Uyir had ceased jewellery designing following Thulir's birth.
okay, it's time for some flashbacks....
Thulir was a very active child and always needed someone's company if no one was around her she would use the god's precious gift "Her pitched screams " to make people come to her on their own and she would mess up the drawings and tear the sheets just for fun....yeah childhood Thulir is a Troublemaker and over clumsy also chatterbox...
One day, Thulir didn't just paint, she splashed the paints meant for the room all over herself, from head to toe. Madam celebrated Holi with waterproof paints, and it took nearly 2 hours to clean the kids. Thulir didn't stop at herself; she also doused Agathiyan and Aadhavan in paint.
What happened was that Uyir decided to renovate the house and change the decor. While Devaki and Uyir were finalizing the design and patterns with the designers, Uyir found the preplanned and finalized designs unappealing. Consequently, she asked them to halt the work midway to discuss new options.
Agathiyan and Aadhavan are also at home and they are 7 and 6 years old respectively...Thulir was just 5 then...both the boys were playing with the puzzle....Thulir was taking her afternoon nap...Today was local holiday so the schools were leave Uyir said she would do the babysitting work and its easy to handle the boys compared to her devil daughter...
Hoping that nothing untoward would occur, Uyir and Devaki immersed themselves in their work. Meanwhile, upon waking to find herself alone with those little boys, Thulir became irritated and was on the verge of screaming out loud when Aadhavan and Agathiyan quickly covered her mouth with their hands, prompting a glare from her.
Pushing their hands away, she climbed out of bed and walked out, planning to scream at her mother right in her face if she got the chance, even considering pulling her hair as punishment for leaving her....
Knowing the troublemaker was likely to attempt another stunt, they followed her. She walked into her mother's library, hoping to find her, but Uyir was not there either. Thulir then proceeded to the next room. Not looking down, she stumbled over a paint bucket, lost her balance, fell to the floor, and the bucket, now hooked to her hand, tipped and spilled all over her.
Aadhavan stifled his laughter to avoid upsetting the little girl, but Agathiyan couldn't contain himself and burst out laughing at Thulir. In a rage, Thulir stood up, marched over to him, and without a moment's hesitation, pushed him onto the paint-covered floor, then poured the rest of the paint from the bucket over his head. Aadhavan moved to help his brother, but Thulir stopped him. As Aadhavan struggled, their scuffle resulted in all three of them tumbling to the floor, now all covered in dark brown paint.
Uyir and Devaki rushed upstairs once they heard something falling and Thulir screams but before they reach everything was done and dusted....
One day, their play resulted in the collapse of Uyir's library. The elders had to rescue them from the heap of books after Agathiyan and Thulir's book-throwing fight. Aadhavan, caught in the middle while attempting to pacify them, was also trapped as they inadvertently brought down Uyir's entire personal library.
