Author's POV
Agathiyan massaged Thulir's feet as she lost herself in deep contemplation. He furrowed his brow, calling her name twice, but received no response. Abandoning her feet, he rose and sat beside her, gently touching her shoulder, pulling her back from her reverie...
"Ena dii"
Thulir signed...
"What do you think about Appa's suggestion Agathiya? "
"That's actually an order not suggestion Thulir you know that"
Hearing his reply Thulir shook her head in disbelief..
"You can also say it's his love and excitement of soon to be grandfather"
"Yeah of course"
He said in nonchalantly making her giggle at his acts...
"Agathiyaaaaa.... "
Thulir dragged his name..... Agathiyan rolled his eyes
"Please don't use that tone, Professor Madam. I can already anticipate what you're about to say if you begin with that dragging manner. "
Thulir hits his shoulder pouting at him....
"What now.... You want to go there at 5th month itself.. Right... Go no one is stopping you... Nee poo"
As he prepared to leave, Thulir grasped his wrist, her eyes pleading. He sighed deeply and settled back down beside her. Thulir hugged her arms, leaning against his shoulder, and neither of them spoke a word....
After Sometime Agathiyan spoke...
"Thulir, I understand your desire to visit your parents' home, but there are important considerations. Amma wishes for us to return to Revathi Illam, especially since she'll soon be a grandmother and wants to be close to you and the babies. While I empathize with your feelings, remember that my own childhood was spent away from her. Fulfilling her longing to be with our children is significant to her. Rejecting this could hurt her, even if she doesn't show it openly. Additionally, by staying away, we indirectly affect Perima and Peripaa, as it aligns with their wishes too. I recognize that you were upset initially and wanted time alone, but it's been three years. As the first daughter-in-law, your presence holds significance. Let's also consider that Aadhavan and Amudhan will likely marry soon. Although it hasn't been discussed directly, because the eldest daughter in law of the family didn't came there yet and also remember the firstborn of the next generation will inherit the heirship directly from me.... "
Thulir placed palm over his mouth stopping him from speaking.....
"Let's don't talk about business and heirship and all now Agathiya.....that surely never going to be my first priority nor my kids.... Don't burden them even before they born.....
And what made you think I don't consider all this and bluntly saying I want to go to my parents house to say....
I already spoke with Athhai and periyatthai about the same....that we will move in to Revathi illam after my delivery....... Also I am not angry or holding any grudge towards anyone.... Even though none asked everyone know that something is not right between me and ammu, perimama and periyattha... Of course Aadhavan that's the reason I didn't move in to Revathi illam after marriage...
Agathiya I am going be a mother....I couldn't see my ammu being distant from me thinking I wouldn't like her being around...... That hurts me... I crave for my ammu's presense at the moment also I can see Thalir was also being distant from me....
She is my first baby Agathiya...I want to sort things with them about anyone else...
About perimama ,periyatthai and Aadhavan I would shift back to Revathi illam after babies birth.... I will talk to them after that...About Issai Aathai, don't worry-she'll have plenty of time to relive those missed moments with your babies
Also I am concerned about Thugil as well...I don't want her to feel like maid or something..... Shifting to Revathi illam means we should take her with us... It's not like There is no room in Revathi illam to accommodate her.... But when I would go to my parents house after baby shower in 7th month... What she would do in Revathi illam....She would accompany me to my parents... She would never feel like home if that happens....
Taking her to Revathi illam didn't feel right in any manner... Even though those who live in Revathi illam won't say anything that would hurt her....what about the relations....Cyinhu athai, anju atthai, even periathhai's family members surely would say something for sure.... They still can't keep their mouth shut regarding Aadhavan even though they known him from childhood and seen how much our family treasure him... Yet they badmouth him...... I don't want they do the same with Thugil.....
The fifth month ceremony we can keep it simple in this house itself with our family alone without much guest or relatives.... I would go to my parents home along with Thugil....
Those who will speak if Thugil stay in Revathi illam won't even dare to do that if she stays in my house because they dead fears my ammu.... Also Thugil would feel home as she already attached with Kannu.... And Thalir surely would let go of her jealousy on her knowing her....
You know Thalir always wanted another siblings so that she could be the elder one as she was the youngest in our family...
Thugil is younger than her Agathiya... Her closeness with me and the guilt is what making Thalir restless.... I want to sort that misunderstanding between them... So that Thugil would feel home... If I say she is my sister I mean it in every sense......
Aadhavan's marriage.... What do you mean by that... What made you think Thalir would let go of that idiot that soon.....
About Amudhan surely that talk won't come till Aadhavan's marriage...
I just hope before this duo Aadhi don't come up and say he want to get married..... "
Thulir said and shook her head, prompting a frown from Agathiyan.
"Aadhi... He's just a child," he defended, earning a narrowed gaze from her.
"Yeah 25 year old child...... Ethachu solidaporen "
(Don't put words in my mouth)
Agathiyan chucked and again pulled her into his embrace and kissed her head.....
" Do you realize you become more considerate nowadays "
"I know Agathiyaa......I do have to take up the responsibilities... I can't run away from it for long.... And I am going be mother soon.... I have to think about them to.... It's not just about me anymore..... "
Thulir said... Agathiyan nodded his head...
"You would be great mother for our babies Thulir.... But"
"But what? "
Thulir furrowed....
"Madam thought about everyone else but she forgot me.... "
"What about you ACP sir"
"What I would do without you? "
Thulir looked up from his chest and narrowed her eyes at him..
"ACP sir...it's not like sir didn't came to my house at all and feeling shy to stay there......Let me remind you.... Sir literally grew up in my house.... My ammu actually take care of you more than she care about us..... Now you are her son in law too.....you would get king treatment there.... So don't start the drama... "
Thulir said rolling her eyes...
