K- Ava than solitaila.. Ethuku vantha.. Una pidika..

M interrupting- Rajesh nee ula va nama pesalam.

Rajesh- Ethuku ivan inga. Una kedthathe ivan tha.. Kudika vera solikuduthurkan.. Mothala intha naya veratanum..

M irritated- Rajesh Konjam mariyathaya pesu.. Avana ethum sola unaku urumai ila..

Rajesh- Ey ena de.. neega rendu perum serthu kudichu koothadikaringa.. atha keta ena nee pesama iruka solara...

K- Mulla kita oyunga pesu ilana oyunga ooruku poi sera mata..

M- Kathir please... Neeyavathu porumaya pesu.. Ula poidu..

Kathir tried to calm down just for mullas sake, but he felt agitated and angry. More than anything seeing him touch her and talk to her like she was his made his blood boil. He wanted to get this man out of the house as soon as possible. Somehow he also felt uncomfortable leaving them alone. He did not trust this guy.. What if he hurt her?. Mulla had just broken up with him and he had come here to do what? No he would not leave them alone.

K- Mulla ena pesanumo ingaye pesu..

Rajesh- Ey nee yaaru atha solla. Neeye inga vendam nu solren..

M- Rajesh niruthu.. Kathir na rajeshta thaniya pesanum.. Purijuko..

Rajesh and kathir were still glaring at each other. They did not seem to be hearing her. Mulla stared at both of them feeling helpless and upset to be caught in the middle.

Rajesh- ena da moraikara?? Itha moraikara velaya un oorla vechuko. Ilana...

K coming closer- Ena da panuva..

Mulla who was already panicked, was scared this would turn physical. She tried to physically move between the two of them. She pushed kathir back a bit. Kathir took her hand.

K- Mulla ivan kuda una thaniya vida Enaku bayama iruku.. Na un koodave iruken.. ena pesanumo ingaye pesu..

M- Kathir please nee un roomku po..Na unkita aparam pesaren..

Rajesh- Roomka atheliam venam..  Nanaga pesikarom nee velila po.. un ooruku kelambu..

K- Nee Yaaru ena poha sola.. Na mulla kuda than irupen.. Avale..

Rajesh- avala paathuka na vanthuten.. nee inga ethuku.. Iva en aalu.. Ithu lovers kula irukara vishyam..

K- Un aala.. Cha.. Ava tha una ved...

M- Kathir Niruthu..

Mulla cut him off. She did not want Rajesh to hear about it from kathir. She had to be the one to tell him. Whatever it was the decent thing to do. He deserved that respect from him.. In her panicked state, She  dragged him into his room. Rajesh tried to follow but mulla stopped him and shut the door firmly in his face. Rajesh began knocking the door insistently. Mulla urgently without thinking  whispered to kathir.

M in a low voice- Na Rajesh kita inum breakup panala. Un kita atha Oru theiryathakaga than sonen. Nee avan kita pota odachudatha.. na..

Kathir tugged off her hand.. He felt numb for a second like she had slapped him.  Mulla had lied to him. She was not broken up with that guy.. That meant.. that meant she was not telling him the truth about liking him too.. 

K- Enathu.. Nee avan kita solalaye?? Apa..

Mulla who had not meant to blurt it out like that looked guilty.

K- Apa.. apa en kita sonathaelam poiya.. Ethuku apidi poi sona..

M- ila ila. Avan kita solanum nu mudivu paniten ana sola bayama iruthuchu. Un kita soliten nu sona oru theiryam varum nu neichu than ..

K- Athuku?? Nee ena vechu velayadriya.. Avana pidikala ena pidikum nu sonathu?? Vera Enalam poi solirka... Elame poi thane..

Mulla looked anguished and tried to control her tears.  Rajesh was still hammering the door. This was all getting a bit too much for her.

M-Aiyo apidi ila.. Na avankita sollanum nu neichen..Na una pathi sonathu unmai than.. Enaku una nejamave..

Kathir raised his hand for her stop.

K- Chumma sona poiya thirumba thirumba solatha.. Kudichutu chuma ootriya ena. Ena ematharthula apidi ena santhosham unaku...

M in tears - Kathir please..

Rajesh shouted from outside louder than ever- Kathava mudikitu ula ena panringa rendu perum. Na kathava odakporen.

They could hear him banging the door harder. Mulla not able to bear the shouting and banging any longer  went to open the door fearing it may fall through. Immidately rajesh grabbed mullais hand and dragged her away, kathir who was still in shock made no effort to follow them. Rajesh took mulla to her room and shut the door.

Rajesh- Unaku ena theiryam.. Avan kuda Kathava pootikitu ula iruka. Athuvum ena Velila vechukitu.. asigma ila.

Mulla was frustrated angry and upset. She just felt exhausted.  She more than anything just wanted to talk to kathir and sort out their issues. But she needed to get this over with Rajesh first. She stood still for a second  thinking, then deciding it's better to be honest and say it out than just prolong it any longer.

M- Rajesh am sorry enaku una antha mathri pidikala. Nama break up panikalam. Ena Manichudu..
