Sakthi continues staring at Sadhana in shock, and she seemed speechless too.
"Dei anna", Malar shakes her brother, making him gain his attention.
Sakthi smiles stunned, feeling so overwhelmed by his luck in meeting Sadhana here, again.
Sadhana's eyes brighten and a blush warms her cheeks as Sakthi locks eyes with her and shoots her a smile.
"Amma nan poi ready ayitu varen. Sorry for the delay uncle", Sadhana apologises to Sarath Kumar, who shakes his head smiling.
"Nee poi ready ayitu va da thangam, naanga onnum nenachika matom", Radhika says smiling.
"Dei yennada da apdi oru look kooduthu avaluku? Kathitu vandha ponnu, silent ah pothu? Unna pudichirucha?", Radhika asks her son with narrowed eyes.
Sakthi blushes, "Ma nee vera yen ma."
"Dei anna they yepdi nirutharuthu, ponnuku unna pudichiruku nu nenaikuren", Malar whispers to Sakthi.
"Amma thaye, nee onnum panna vendam, silent ah okkaru.", Sakthi says.
Sadhana walks out dressed in a simple but elegant saree, carrying a coffee tray in her hands.
She passes the coffee around to everyone before going to stand near her father.
"Aprom da? Idha yen ponnu. Pakathula irrukura hospital le paediatrician ah work panra.", Krishna says talking to Sarath Kumar.
"Aprom ma velailam yepdi podu?", Sarath Kumar asks Sadhana.
"Nalla podhu uncle, neraiya kozhandainga ku treat pannirken and I love what I do", Sadhana says smiling passionately.
After some more chit-chats, Sakthi and Sadhana are sent into the room to talk alone. Malar smiles confused when she sees Sakthi happily get up and follow the girl.
Indha loosu paiyan yenna panran, Malar thought to herself before asking, " Aunty unga ponnu peru yenna?"
"Sadhana ma", Radha replies.
"What?", Malar shrieks.
"Yenna di achu?", Radhika asks glaring at Malar.
"Ah onnum ille, cockroach maari irundhidhu", Malar manages making Radha and Krishna laugh.
Appo indha ponnu dhan andha ponnu, andha ponnu dhan indha ponnu, Malar thinks stunned.
Sakthi follows Sadhana inside and he looks around to see it's her bedroom.
He smiles at the racks of books arranged near her bed and a collage of photos adorning every inch of the wall.
Sadhana closes the door lightly, before standing in front of Sakthi.
"Arranged marriage pudikadha?", Sakthi asks, breaking the silence.
Sadhana smiles shyly before replying, "Paiyana pudikalena, kalyanam pannika maaten."
"Adhu yepdi pakamaiye nee pudikela nu sonne?", Sakthi asks raising his eyebrows.
"A-adhu because, I already met someone, but-", Sadhana says hesitantly.
Sakthi's eyes dims as his heart squeezes painfully, but he forces smile and says, "Appo kalyanam venna nu sollidalama?"
Sadhana shakes her head stubbornly. "Andha paiyan oda peyar kooda yennaku theriyathu. Accident ah dhan meet panom", Sadhana says looking into Sakthi's eyes.
Sakthi thinks confused, yenna namba kadhai maari irruku.
"Apo na pesita unga parents kita?", Sakthi asks.
