Ey 🎶 Paadal ondru 🎶 Kathaiyum Ondru

Pirai Thedum Iravile Uyire - Part 2

She fed him a few mouthfuls..

The invigorating bath, the fresh clothes, the hot food but most importantly her presence..the oh so warm presence was all infusing him with some much needed energy..

That calm aura that she had about her..oh he knew that was a facade..but it helped him..her tears would have broken him

He realised she wouldn't have eaten either..

He held her hand and gently guided it to her mouth...she took the bite without a fuss..

Wanting minimal exertion for him..she simply fed him one mouth and ate one herself...as long as he ate..

But frankly her heart was not in eating...

The plate was empty soon enough...he could have had 2 more dosas...but he didn't have the heart to ask her..

It didn't occur to her to ask him if he wanted more...the scar on his palm and the many more hidden under his tee were her undoing..

She quickly got up at the pretext of leaving the plate and washing her hands...

Kanna met her at the hall and gave her the ointment that he had used .

Mullai : eriyuma daa..

Kanna : ille anni..konjam kulumaiya nallave irukkum..

Mullai : thoonga poraiya..

Kanna : enga anni thookkam varalai

Mullai: thevai patta kooppidaren..pottu vidu.. she turned around to walk away..but paused..Kanna thoongu..onnum ille..ippo konjam nalla thaan irukkaaru..

Kanna : hmm seri anni..aanaa neenga naan thoongittaalum ezhuppunga..thevaipatta

🎶 Azhuthaal un paarvaiyum;Ayanthaal un kaalgalum 🎶
🎶 Adhikaalaiyin koodalil;Sogam theerkkum podhuma🎶
🎶Nizhal thedidum aanmaiyum; Nijam thedidum penmaiyum🎶
🎶Oru porvaiyil vaazhum inbam; Dheivam thantha sonthama🎶

Mullai went to the kitchen.. The counter top had been cleared up already.. having washed the plate..she stood leaning with her hands pressed against the counter top for support and finally let the tears flow...she needed to cry...the welt on his palm..she didnt think she could forget it ever...she cried unabashedly...

And thats how Kathir found her when he came looking for her..

He walked up to her and hugged her from behind sushing her...

Kathir : onnum ille nnu nee thaane sonne..onnum ille.ethukku azhuvara..neeyum tired ah iruppa..vaa roomukku polaam

Mullai leaned against him and composed herself and they went back to the room..

Mullai: Kanna ointment kuduthan...avana koopidattuma..

Kathir stood mum for a moment as if struggling to make a decision...but slowly started to remove his T shirt..

He realised how painful it was to remove with bruises on his shoulder..

Even with her help he yelped out in pain a couple of times..

There were only a couple of marks on his shoulder..but they were an angry red..

She was no longer even trying  to hide her misery

Wanting to divert her

Kathir : ippudi thaan nadu rathiri kelambi varuviya..hmm

If anything it only upset her more ..
