Chapter 23 - Her Fear

The whole house was running on the wheels to make the arrangements for " pon uruku ", a ritual where the gold is melted to make the Mangalyam. When everyone was busy with the ritual arrangements one soul was suffering looking at the mobile for the umpteenth time from last morning.

Surya sighed at the message screen with her final message with two double ticks and no reply before throwing her mobile on the bed.

" Enna Madam.. ulla varalam ah ? "

Surya turned to find Maya at the doorstep with a smiling face and smiled back at her.

Surya: kekati enna ulla va.

Maya walked into the room and sat beside her and looked around.

Maya: Kavya enga ?

Surya: avunga apava keela poitanga..

Maya: oh.. Seri nee yen inum keela pogama iruka ?

Surya: pogala apdiya ukanta.. epadi irunthalum kupduvanga illa.. nee pola..

Maya: Nan thoongitan ipa tha ready ana.. vara apa nee room la irukaratha pathan atha kuptu polam vantha..

Surya: Seri va apa polam..

She said getting up but stopped when Maya got hold of her wrist.

Surya: enna di va polam..

Maya: ukaru..

Surya: ellarum wait panuvanga..

Maya: panatum ukaru..

Surya sat down on the bed and frowned when Maya simply stared at her.

Surya: aii keela ellarum namakaga wait panitu irukanga di... nee yen ipadi enna pathutu ukanthu iruka ?

Maya: yaru di antha payan

Surya's eyes went wide in surprise.
