Siddarth returned from office with very tired and the top two button of his white shirt was undone revealing his bare chest. The sleeves were rolled to is elbow and he had his one hand his pocket as he entered the room and found it decorated with roses and candles everywhere. His eyes landed on the bed which was filled with rose petals arranged to form a heart and the chill air from the AC along with the fragance of the flowers made it completely romantic. His eyes roamed and stopped at his wife standing by the window with her back facing him.
His eyes betrayed him and he shamelessly stared at figure. She was dressed in a purple chiffon saree with the pallu pinned in single pleat and it hung exposing her bare waist. Her hair which was cascading to her front got a good view of her back. The sleeveless blouse did nothing but give complete view of her arms and her collarbone of one side.
Her bangles made the beautiful sound as she fidgeted witht he curtains out f being shy. Sid took slow steps towards her and traced her arms with his knuckles slowly and she leaned her back to his front. He kissed her nape and bit her earlobe earning a moan from her. She fisted her saree on sides when he removed the pin and letting her pallu fall down. She instantly covered her face with her hands.
Sid turned her around to face him and kissed her hand that was covering her face. His pants tightened witht the view of her bosoms in between her hands. He traced his fingers on her bare waist and drew circles on her navel and his fingers started moving up and stopped on her sternum.
Sid: Let me see your flushed face baby……
He removed and her hands and screamed holding his head and shutting his eyes. Panting heavily he opened his eyes slowly and saw a petite figure standing opposite to him with hands on her hip. He wiped the water from his eyes and gritted his teeth realizing that everything was a dream.
He removed his shirt and squeezed to let the water out of it and threw it away before turning to the only person who had the guts to spoil his best moments.
Sid: Seriously Yamini ? Have you sworn to not let me have first night even in my dreams Yami ? Ennadi pavam pannen naa ? ( What sin did I do girl ?)
Yami: deiii first kalyanam pannu da apram first night pannu. Daily oruthi kooda first night idhula perusa nallavan madhiri build up. ( first get married man then do the first night. Acting like a honest man but doesn first night with different every night)
Sid: If someone hears your words what will happen to my reputation. You are saying as if I m doing it real. Worst is you never let anything happen even in dreams. You just have barge in and stop even before I kiss her.
Yami: what color saree today ?
Sid: Same purple…
Yami: Stop….same pruple saree….same rose decoration..same white curtain…you were wearing same white shirt
Sid: So what do you understand from this ?
Yami: Nee saamiyar dhan di…( You will be a sage only )
Sid: No Yamu, its the same girl when I get that dream. So she is born somewhere and waiting for my arrival. So please get married soon and let me go in search of my anarkali.
Yami: Anarkali thedi pona salim and anarkali rendu perum gaali di ..sangu dhan..( Anarkai and Salim who went for her, both were killed…only conch sound for you )
Sid: Podi, seri enna panran un crush paathutiya ? ( What is your crush doing, did you see him already?)
Yami: Hey how many times should I remind you that was when we were in school and not anymore. Now my crush is Arjun das and no one else. By the way your brother is like strict officer who will marry him. Now get ready and I m going to kitchen.
Sid: Rascal clean my bed and then leave this room. Every time I m getting scolding from my mother.
Yam: kavala padadha nee chucha poite solren….onnum solla mattanga..( don’t worry, I will tell her that you peed in the bed and she won’t scold you )
She ran and he started chasing her as usual. Yamini reached the kitchen and hid behind Madhuri and Sid tried to hit but Madhuri stopped him.
Madh: Eruma maadu ( buffalo) Why are hitting my child now ?
Before Sid could reply he saw Vimal walking towards the dining table and smirked at Yamini.
Sid: Vaa di…he mouthed at her and she immediately came from behind of Madhuri and caught Sid’s hand as they moved a little away from her.
Yam: Please please…please solladha da..( don’t tell him)
Sid: Appo poi bed clean pannitu hot water open pannu naa kulikkanum. ( Then go clean my bed and open hot water for me to bath)
She stomped on his feet and left the kitchen passing a gentle smile to Vimal. Sid sat opposite to Vimal and pulled the newspaper from him and smiled at his mother taking the tea from her hand.
Vim: Hey did you brush your teeth Sid ?
Sid: Yep bro, yesterday I did…don’t worry….Are you getting late for office ?
Vim: what have you planned Sid ? Any ideas ?
Sid: I will tell you tonight for sure. Trust me this time.
“Dei Sid, seekiram vaa da” Yami yelled from his room and Sid rushed stuffing the newspaper in Vimal’s hands.
He saw her folding arranging the books in the shelf and saw him pulling out a towel to enter the washroom.
Sid: Hey Yami, Vimal is asking for ideas for business. Did you think anything if not after breakfast we will have group discussion to finalize the ideas. I need to tell him tonight.
Without waiting for her reply he entered the washroom and closed the door. Yami entered the kitchen and sat on the counter munching on a carrot. She saw Madhuri preparring salads and omlet.
Yam: Mumma, doesn’t he get bored of eating this thing daily ?
Madhu: I don’t know but I feel bored of preparing this daily. Lets do a plan tomorrow to test him if he will eat something different. What say ?
Yami and Madhuri hified and laughed. Meanwhile Yami heard her mother screaming her name and bade bye to Madhuri and reached her room.
She saw her father shaking the bell doing pooja in the pooja room and her mother walking towards her with a spatula in her hand.
Vijaya: Why can’t help me atleast a day in preparing the breakfast at home Yami ?
Yami: Don’t call me Yami, its only Yamu or Yamini. Only Sid calls me Yami. And for cooking, I already told you that I won’t learn cooking and will marry someone who knows cooking and can cook for me.
Vijaya: See, I m blessing you that one day you will run to and forth to kitchen cooking for husband and will call me hundred times to learn at that time.
Yami: Enna oru nalla ennam ( What a good thought ?) but don’t worry I will learn from my mother in law.
Vijaya: Aama, un maamiyar pakkathula irukka Madhuri paru ( yes, like your mother in law will the next door Madhuri )
Yami: Maa, what did you cook ? Give some for Sid and I will have with him there only.
Vij: Go take yourself or wait for sometime anyhow he will end up here.
Yami: We have group discussion today about his business so don’t disturb us please.
Vij: Is it ? ok then I will kitchen door because you both will be busy in discussion.
Yami: How could you be so cruel maa ? We will need snacks in between refreshment.
Manohar: Yes, a little snacks, some fresh juice. Also Vijaya don’t forget to turn on the AC once they fall asleep and also don’t forget to turn off the TV.
Yami: Appa, you are teasing us ?
Man: No chellam (dear) I m helping you. What if she really lock the kitchen after I leave for office?
Yami: Yes paa, maa will do that but she loves Sid too much than me so I can rely on her so don’t worry.
As they kept talking Sid entered and slumped beside Yami and greeted her parents.
Vij: Hey Sid, vaa pa, innaku appam kuruma senjurukken. ( Come , I cooked appam and kuruma today )
Yamini and Manohar looked at each other and turned their gaze to Sid who was already in the dining table and Vijaya placing a plate before him ruffling his hair.
Yami: I was waiting for him and that idiot has left me for that appam and kuruma ?
She angrily reached the dining table and sat next to him and without even turning to her Sid took a piece of the appam from his plate and turned to her and stuffed in her mouth. Just like that her angry flew away like every time and he was eating feeding her side by side.
Krishnan just face pamled at their antics and left to his office and Vijaya was serving hot appams to the duo as they kept eating chatting over the movie they watched yesterday.
This is how their day starts and nothing could keep them apart.
