The next day, Malar finishes getting ready and walks down, calling Anirudh.

"Guess what?", she tells excitedly.

"What?", Anirudh asks sleepily.

"Time 10:30 agudhu, innum yenna thookam.", Malar asks.

"Ayy yenna venum di, yennaku thookam varudhu", Anirudh whines

"Sakthi ku ponnu paka porom", Malar exclaims happily.

"Yedhu? Ippova?", Anirudh asks suddenly alert.

"Hmm 11 ku kelambalam nu plan", Malar says.

"Naanu?",Anirudh says. Malar could practically hear him pout on the other side.

"Nee poi thoongu raja, na unna distrub panale", Malar smirks.

"Ayyy not fair", Anirudh whines.

Malar was about to reply to him, when her phone is snatched from her hand.

She glares at her mother, who is chatting with Anirudh.

"Ahn seri pa, na aprom call panren", Radhika says before Malar's phone back to her.

"Your mother invited me you know", Anirudh grins.

Malar smiles, "Appo va"

"Innaiku konjam busy, aana afternoon meet panlama?", Anirudh asks.

"Hmm seri, thoongi vazhiyama poi studio ku kelambu. Ama innaiku yaaru kooda recording?", Malar asks.

"Vertri Maran sir", Anirudh says.

"What?", Malar gasps. "Yennaku oru autograph vaangu."

Anirudh chuckles and says ok before cutting the call.

"Kelambulama?", Sarath Kumar asks from the hall.

"Nan ready pa, ana mapillai ya kanom", Malar says.

Sakthi who walks behind Malar smacks her head.

"Innum kalyaname fix agala, athukula na mapillai ya", Sakthi says causing Malar to snicker.

Malar observes Sakthi and notices that even though he tries smiling his eyes are dim.

"Dei yennada achu?", Malar asks starting to frown.

"Onnum illaiye", Sakthi says.

"Dei you know I can read your expressions. What happened? Yaaravudu love panriya?", Malar asks narrowing her eyes.

"W-what n-no, why would I? I'm way too busy.", Sakthi says thinking, na Sadhana ve kandhupidichalum it's not like she will agree to marry me.

"You are happy le?", Malar asks.

Sakthi smiles and squeezes her arm, "I'm fine di, don't worry too much. Aprom Ani bro varara?"

Malar shakes her head, 'Studio le vela."

Malar and Sakthi hear their father call for them and walk to him.

"Vaanga kelambulam", Sarath Kumar says walking out the door first.

Malar and Radhika follow him, chatting happily. Sakthi takes a deep breath before locking the door and walking to the car.

"Morning, I bought breakfast", Arjun greets Ayira holding up a paper bag.

Ayira grins and opens the door wide, Arjun walks in and kisses Ayira on the cheek before giving the paper bag to her.

"Sapdalam?", Arjun asks.

"Innum sapdaliya?", Ayira asks, making Arjun shake his head.

"I wanted to eat together", Arjun says, making Ayira smile and drag him to the dining table.
