It was the last period before the school bell was set to ring. Narmadha kept glancing between the window and her watch, hoping that somehow, by checking often enough, the bell would ring sooner, letting her finally go home. She was particularly excited today because her older sister, Kaveri, had promised to bake a chocolate cake with her. There wasn't any special occasion—just that they both felt it had been too long since they'd done something fun together.
But suddenly, her teacher's voice boomed through the classroom, snapping her out of her daydream.
Teacher : Pasanggala, nalaikku ungge ellarodaiyum egg-drop model, science project competition-ku, edhuthu vanthudunge. Naa unggeluku ellam 1 week ago-ve remind panniten, yaarum ningge sollule appadi ippadi excuses sollathinge. Yaaru nallaiku eduthu varulaiyo illati maranthingalo, unggaluku punishment irruku. Ippove solliten, ollunge remember panni vechuokenge. All the best to all of you.
Narmadha's face went pale; she had completely forgotten about the project. She realized she'd be in big trouble if she didn't show up with her model tomorrow. The only solution she could think of was to ask her sisters for help. She vaguely remembered seeing Kaveri akka assist Yamuna akka with a similar project. Just then, the bell finally rang, signaling the end of the school day.
Once Narmadha reached home, she told her mum about the project and confessed that she'd forgotten about it and needed to bring a model to school the next day.
Saradha Ma : Yendi, kadaisi nimashuthula thaan sollure ?? Ippo eppadi pannurathu ? Gangavum Kumarannum order-ah mudhichithu night romba late-ah thaan varuvangenu sollitangele...ennakum itthe patthi seriya theriyathu....nee venumna Kaveri kitte poi kellu. Ava unnaku uthavi pannuva.
Narmadha : Serri ma. Naan poyi Kaveri akka-ve paathuthu varen.
Saradha Ma : Ehh irudi. Uniform ma maathithu, saaptu po.
Narmadha : Serri ma.
After freshening up and having lunch, Narmadha quickly rushed over to her sister's house for help. As she reached her sister's house, at the entrance, she spotted Thaatha, relaxing on the swing, while Vijay sat next to him on the sofa with a laptop, chatting about something. Thaatha noticed a shadow at the entrance and realized it was Narmadha. He invited her in with a warm smile. Vijay also looked up, saw Narmadha, and greeted her with a friendly smile.
Narmadha : Thaatha akka veetule illaya ? (She ask nervously)
Thaatha : Illaiye ma. Ungge akkavum Paatiyum velliya poyirukange. Ningge ellam etho cake seiya poringalame. Athukaga thaan saaman vaange poyirukange.
Narmadha : Oh apadiya (Said in disappointingly)
Vijay : Yaan ma ? Akka-ve ippove thedure ? Night thaane neenge rendu perum bake panna porratha sonna
Narmadha : Ille Maamaa. Atthuke ille. Ennaku oru science project nallaiku due agathu. Athaan akka-voda help venum-nu vanthen.
Vijay : Appadiya ? Atthu enna project ?
Vijay shut his laptop and leaned forward to listen to what Narmadha had to say about her project.
Narmadha : Atthu onnum ille maamaa. Engge school-le nallaiku egg-drop project seirange. Naame oru secure-ana model senju atthukul antha muttai veikkanum. Approm antha whole model-le enge school 3rd floor lernthu kille drop pannanum. Kille pottathume, yaaroda muttai kille secure-ah vodaiyamma irrukutho avange thaan winner.
Vijay : Avvalothaana ? Serri, naane unnaku help pannuren
Narmadhaa : Aiyoo maamaa. Parava ille. Neenge busy ah irupinge. Naan akka-ke wait pannuren
