Tara was, thinking deeply about the recent events, especially her conversation with Nithya. Her mind is racing, and she feels a growing resolve to stand her ground.

Tara mv: Nithya ivlo confident ah iruka, Adi ah ava pakkam izhukka mudiyum nu nenaikra... Aana naan Adi vida maaten. Naama late panna namauku dhaan prechana epdiyachum avala veeta vitu anupanum adhuvum nalaiku ellamae pannnanum......ena seiyuradhu nu therilayae.....

Tara's phone suddenly rings. It's her mother calling.

Tara mv : aiyao amma kita sollavae illayae....

Radha : Enna aachu, Tara? En nee innum varala?

Tara (softly): Amma, adhu vandhu... Adi bakery ku vandharu. Na avar kudavae veetuku vandhuten.

Radha smiles on the other end, happy at the progress between her daughter and Adi.

Radha : Apo neenga rendu perum pesi solve pannitingala.

Tara : Aama ma

Tara doesn't mention Nithya or her leg injury, knowing her mother would only worry if she did.

Radha : Ipo dhan happy a iruku. Neenga rendu perum ipdi pesika dhaan naanum appavum wait pannom.

Tara can sense her mother's happiness. She doesnt want to to mention her leg injury or anything about Nithya to avoid worrying her mother.

After a few more light exchanges, Tara cuts the call, feeling relieved. Just as she sets the phone down, Adi enters the room, holding a plate of food.

Adi (walking over to her): Eppadi irukku? Kaal valikkudha?

Tara watches as Adi sits down beside her, gently checking her leg.

Tara (shaking her head): Ipo konjam paravala. Neenga en eduthutu vandhinga na keela vandhu saaptrupen.

Adi (sternly but with concern): Illai. Nee rest edukanum adhanala dhaan na eduthutu vandhen. Thirupi nadantha kaal dhaan valikum.

Tara felt happier for his care but at the same time, feeling a bit lonely at the idea of eating by herself. Then, an idea crosses her mind. If Adi goes downstairs, he'll end up with Nithya. So she quickly forms a plan.

Tara (innocently): Seri, aana naan inga than sapiduven, aana... Romba thaniyana irukku la... Neengalum en kooda saapdunga?"

Adi looks at her for a second and then, to Tara's relief, he nods without hesitation.

Adi: Okay. Naanum kooda sapiduven."
(Okay. I'll eat with you.)

Tara smiles, happy that her plan worked. Adi goes back downstairs to bring his plate of food while she waits, feeling pleased with herself for keeping him close. He returns back with a plate of food for himself. 

They both are sitting together, and eating the atmosphere filled with warmth and an undercurrent of growing feelings. Tara glances at Adi's arm and decides to bring it up.

Tara: Adi, ungaluku anaiku adi pattuchu la, ipo andha kayam innum iruka? Inneram kandippa seriyaayirukanum.

Adi, caught off guard, smiles and nods. Actually he forgot totally.

Adi: Yeah, it is.

Tara: Edhanala apdi aachu?

Adi: Onnum illa... just an incident.

Tara frowns slightly, not satisfied with his response.

Tara: Sollunga, enna aachunu? Edachum sandai a? Epomae ipdi dhaan aaguma? I mean, neenga police la, so fight edachum nadakuma nadakura, apo ipdi injury?

Adi: Epovum illa, anaiku konjam careless adhanala.

Tara: Edhanala careless? Epdi apdi aachu sollunga.

She looks at him with pleading puppy eyes, making it hard for Adi to resist her curiosity.

Adi: Unnoda scooty kaanamapochu la, adhu thedi ponen, apo konjam careless a irundhen. Apo ipdi aayiduchu.

Tara's heart sinks, realizing the weight of his words.

Tara: Maybe en scooty na uzhunga careless a vituten adhnala dhana ipdi

Adi: Illa, apdi illa. Idhu konjam sagajam dhaan. Ippo edhuku adha pathi free a vidu.

Tara: Adi, ungaluku indha police work-la kashtam a irukuma?

Adi (smiling): Kashtam-um irukum, aana enakku indha workkaaga oru santhosham irukku.

After hearing Adi's explanation, Tara's heart swells with a mix of empathy and admiration. She realizes how much Adi cares for others and how his job sometimes puts him in danger.

Tara mv : cha apove uzhunga scooty a lock pannirkanum illana ipdi nadanthirkaadhu.

Adi : Romba Yosikama saapdu.

Tara smiles softly, feeling a mix of concern and admiration for Adi. 

~~~~~ 💫💝~~~~~

As they finish their meal, Tara looks at Adi, her heart racing. She knows this moment is crucial, and she wants to be honest about her feelings.

Tara (taking a deep breath): Adi, Na unga kita onnu sollanum. Neenga en life la vandhadhu ku aprm en life la ellamae maariduchu. Enaku unga mela feelings iruku.

Adi's gaze intensifies, a spark of surprise and warmth lighting up his eyes. He is listening to her,  giving her his full attention.

Adi (smiling gently): Tara, Enakum un mela feelings iruku, aana enaku epdi express pannanumnu therila, romba confusing a irundhuchu.  We got married unexpectedly, and now... here we are.

Tara feels a rush of relief wash over her at his admission. She bites her lip, the tension in her chest easing slightly.

Tara: I know it's all so new. I didn't expect this either. I mean, it's strange to feel this way about someone you barely know."

Adi leans closer, his voice low and sincere.

Adi: Ana enaku una pathi therinjukanum, Tara. I want to take it slow. Let's figure this out together. I don't want to rush into anything."

Tara nods, her heart fluttering. She feels an unexpected confidence surging within her.

Tara mv : 𝄞 Idhu podhum enaku idhu podhumae.....verenna venum nee podhumae.......................................𝄞

indha oru vaarathai podhum andha nithyave idhuku aprm veeta vitu thorathuradhu dhaan velai. Ini yaar vandhalum Adi enaku dhaan.....
