The First Empress

Sevili blushed

'At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.'

After the festivities in Malaiyoor, they returned to the palace two days before the coronation ceremony. The whole palace was gearing up for the ceremony.

Veera and Subodhan were working in full swing. Aditha was busy addressing the people as people flocked in thousands to meet their new king.

At the same time in the eastern pavilion, Sangamithra was praying in the inner temple.

Sevili came running towards the inner chamber and stopped after seeing Sangamithra.

Once she finished her prayers, she came out of the temple. As she smeared a small line of thiruneeru on Sevili's forehead, she asked.

Sangamithra: Edharkaga ippadi odi varugiraai Sevili??? Enna aanadho???

Sevili: Devi, Innum irandu naatkalil thangalin padhavi yerpu iruppadhaal, thaangalum thayaar aaga veandum endru koorinaar periya piraati Rukmani theviyar.

Sangamithra: Enaku peridhaana endha aadambarangalum veandom. Padhavi yerppil anaivarai pola naanum pangu kollave pogiren. Adhu ennudaiya naal alla... Avarudaiya naal...

Rukmani: Appadi elidhil koori Vida mudiyaadhu Perarasiyaare...

Sangamithra: Atthai... Vaarungal..

She then touched her foot.

Rukmani: Ezhundhu kollamma...

She then blessed her by placing her hand on her forehead.

Rukmani: Nee malaiyoorin sivanadiyaarai kandu vandhaai endru Sevili ennidatthil koorinaal.

Sangamithra: Thaangal avarai ariveera atthai???

Rukmani: Ariven amma... Avar dhaan Enakku pala nerangalil thunaiyaaga irundhu irukiraar.

Sangamithra smiled warmly.

Rukmani: Un mana vedhanaigalaiyum pokki iruppaar endru ennugiren..

Sangamithra: Pokka dhaan seidhaar atthai...

Rukmani: Adhu podhumamma.. Padhavi yerpu vizhavukku nee thayar aagavillaiya???

Sangamithra: thayaaraga enna irukkiradhu atthai???

Rukmani: Niraiya irukkiradhu... Nee Perarasi aanalum enaku marumagal dhaan. Sendru unakkaana yerpaadugalai nee petru kolla thaan veandum.

Melum sila gurumaargal unnai payittru vikkavum varuvar. Avargalidatthil nee kalvi kattral avasiyam...

Sangamithra: Mundhaiya Arasiyar kattranara???

Rukmani: Illai...

Sangamithra: Appodhu enaku mattum yean??

Rukmani: Nee Vora desatthu pen... Zila desatthin varalaattrai arindhu irundhaal dhaane nee sevvena aatchi puriya un kanavaruku udhava iyalum... Aagaiyaal nee payiludhal veandum... Oru yezhu naatkal payindraal podhum...

Sangamithra nodded her head.

After Rukmani left, Sevili took her to the bath chambers.

Sangamithra: Naan kaalaiye kulitthu vitten Sevili...

Sevili: Illai Devi... Thaangal neeraadi pudhu pattu udutthi payila sella veandum enbadhu periya piraatiyaarin aanai...

Sendru kulithu Vaarungal.. naan thangalukku aadaigalai edutthu vaikkiren...

She did as Sevili asked. She reached her class and the classes dragged on for the entire day. She was feeling too sleepy when she reached her chambers.
