That night, Sindhu and Priya came to out house,
Sindhu: Hey appa koopadraanga. Va
Madhu: Yen?!
Priya: Sonna thaan madam varuveengalo. Va.
They went to their house and she followed.
Appa: Una na ethuku inga kooptu vantha?!
She remained silent.

She nodded.
Appa: Athu mattum ah pandra?!
Madhu: Yenna pa solla vareenga?!
Appa: Puriyala la unaku.
She remained silent.
Appa: Abimanyu pathi thaan kekkara.
She was shocked. She didn't expect him to find out this early. She looked at her sisters. They smirked. She gathered her courage,
Madhu: Aama pa. Enaku avana pudikum. We love each other. But na padikavum thana seiyara.

Stepmom: Ungala vachikitu..
She glared at them.
Stepmom: Ennanga solra unga ponnu.?

She remained silent.
Stepmom: Evalo nenjazhutham paarunga.
