Lost love

Uyiraanaval!

Kaveri, Yamuna and her paati entered the house tired and drained.

“Enna oorudi ithu? Ivalo paraparanu…enaku pudikave illa..”paati lamented sitting down and pressing on her knees.

“Enna paati? Kaal valikudha?” asked Yamuna concerned.

“Aama di..antha bus kootathula eri irangi podum podumnu irku..”

“Nantha apove sonnenla paati…nanum yamunavume poi pathukrom..neenga veetlaye rest edungannu..neengatha kekave illa”, kaveri gently chided her.

“Illadi…pudhu ooru.. college la Vera sekka poreenga..periyavanga yaarum illama thaniya pona nallava irkum?” Paati reasoned.

“Seri irunga. Enakku porapave thonuchu…ungluku alachal athigamanathula kaal vali vandrumnu…athaa naatu marunthu kadaila ninnu namma thailam vangnen. Na unglukku thechi vidren” kaveri said taking out two bottles from her bag.

“Nalla Vela pannakka. Aama unaku kadai angatha irkunnu epdi theryum?” Yamuna asked curiously. 

“Na nethe varra vazhila pathen di. Inniku takkunu athu nyabagam vanchaa..atha ipo useful a irku.” Kaveri said massaging her paati’s legs. 

Yamuna noticed the other bottle and asked, “ennaka, athu enna apo?”

“Athuvum ithe thailam thandi.” 

“Edukukka rendu bottle? Kadai ingathane pakkathula irku..mudinjapram poi vangikalame..”

“athu enakku theryadha. Nethu andha veetu kalyani paati pesrapo kaal valinu sonnanga. Paati ku vangrapo nyabagam vanduchu…athan renda vangiten. Avangalukkum kudupomnu” kaveri explained.

“Nalla Vela senja kaveri nee.” Paati praised her, while yamuna teased her, “ennakka, ipove avanga kita nalla per edukanumnu bayangra muyarchiya iruke…enna sangadhi?”

“Ei…enna nakkala?” Kaveri scowled,“Paavam valikudunu sonnanga. Vangunen. Odane kalaikura..sundal size la irunduttu neeyellam kindal panra enna?? …ellam en neram..” kaveri sighed and got up to wash her hands, “seri, itha poi andha veetla kuduthutu variya? Aprama namma maranthaalum maranthruvom” She asked Yamuna.

“Ada pokka. Neethane vanguna..neeye kudu.” Yamuna replied.

“Naana…na anga….” kaveri rolled her eyes thinking about ‘him’. ‘Anga poi andha aalu kannula sikkita enna panradhu…ammadiyo. Vera venaiye vendam. Avanum Avan kurukuru parvaiyum’

“Akka, enna yosikra? Neeye poi kudu.” Yamuna repeated.

“Illa illa nee po.” Kaveri immediately denied.

“Seri unakum vendam enakkum vendam. Rendu perum povom. Ok va?”, yamuna asked.

“Aduku neeye polamla..” kaveri whined. 

“Enakku thaniya poga oru mathiri irukukka. Neeyum va. Naane vena kudukren.” Yamuna volunteered. 

“Athuku naane kuduthurven. Nee eduku?” Kaveri asked sullenly. 

“Apo thaniyave poriya?” yamuna needled her again.

“Illa. Illa. Neeyum va. Sernthe polam” Kaveri sulkingly took the bottle and went with yamuna, not knowing the ruckus she was walking into.

Meanwhile, in Vijay's house, 

“Vijay…engada iruka? Vijay? Appa…appa?” Chithi’s voice echoed with bubbling frustration and anger.

“Ennama Radha? Ennachu? En ipdi satham podra? Nee adutha varam thane oorla irundu varadha irunda?” Thatha asked her even though he had a clear idea on why she was so upset. Kalyani paati and Vijay slowly dragged themselves to the hall, getting ready for the unavoidable confrontation.
