Author's POV:
Gayathri and Prabhu walked together for a bit before parting their own ways and went to the temple that day. The next day, Gayathri was annoyed at her mum about the ponnu paakkura thing. She hated the idea of it. She likes someone else and is in a secret relationship with that person. She doesn't know what to do. All she can do is find a way to reject her cousin Rudran and go on about her life afterwards.
Gayathri's POV:
"Gayathri! Seekram ezhnthri! Maapilai veetula irunthu vanthuruvanga!" amma shouted from outside my room.
I woke up a bit annoyed and upset. I took a shower and found a really beautiful saree laying on my bed along with the jewels and all. I wore the saree and the jewels with the help of amma and paati.
(what Gayathri was wearing)
I sat down on my bed and was fidgetting with my fingers, when someone knocked on my door
"Ulla vanga!" I said, and paati came inside
"Enna paati, ethachum venuma?" I asked getting up from my bed
"Illa kannu, aana summa solla koodathu, en peththi oru azhagu devathai thaan, en kanne paatrum pola." she said and I weakly smiled
"En kannu, muham oru mathiri irukku?" paati asked putting her hand on my shoulder
"Illa paati, enakku intha ponnu paakura function lam pidikkaathu. Athuvum enakku Rudrana suththama pidikala. Enakku verum 26 vayasu thaan, aana antha Rudranukku epdiyum oru 33 vayasu kitta. Itha amma kitta sonna engazhukkulla sanda thaan varum." I said to paati
"Puriyuthu maa, aana unakku Rudrana pudikkala nu sollalam thaane. Athukku en ivlo soham, anga avangazhukku tea illa coffee ya kuduthuttu, angaye sollu unakku Rudrana kalyanam pannikka ishtam illanu." paati said reassuring me
"Aana amma epdi eduthuppavo therila." I said worried
"Un ammava naan paaththukkuren, atha pathi nee kavala pada venam." paati said
Just then my mum barged in.
"Aththai, seekram, Gayathriya kootikittu vanga, Maapilai veetula irunthu vanthuttanga." she said beaming.
"Itho varom nee kudukkurathukku coffee ya poi pottu eduthu vai." paati said
"Sari aththai, seekram vanga." amma said closing the door behind her
"Inga paaru maa, ithu un vazhkai samanthamanathu. Unakku enna thonutho atha apdiye sollu. Nee edukkura intha mudivu thaan un vazhkaiya theermanikkum. Yosichchu sollu. Sari vaa, veliya povom." paati said walking me out the door.
"Intha Gayathri, intha coffee ya guests kku poi koodu." amma whispered handing me a tray with cups of coffee on them
I gave the coffee to the guests and sat down opposite them next to my father, just waiting for all this to be over. They were talking about things etc etc and I was just sitting there.
