Recap: Raghav plans work from home and later a transfer to Mumbai
*****************
The bitter memories of Keerthy and Ajay didn’t seem to carry away the happines of the families as they put their every effort not to ruin the happiness of Raghav and Malini with their betrayal. Its been two days since marriage and everyone of the family successed in putting up the smile on their faces and to be normal. They spent time together having their meals and chitchatting and sitting together for playing cards. Every minute they tried best to bring a joy n each other’s face.
Raghav managed to do his office works and turned into a strict master when it comes o studies for Malini. They all have been in the home and none left outside except for Raghav who visited his office. Malini the always carefree going girl felt lost being shut in the house for almost 2 and half days. Raghav woul not let her do anything other studies which made her irritated.
Devika who came to call Raghav and Malini for lunch from their room saw them sitting with grumpy faces and sitting in extreme corners of the room. This wasn’t something rare the family has seen. Everytime Malini has her exams the same scenario would be seen but now they being married just two days ago and sitting with annoyed expressions made Devika to worry and as usual she called her favourite first to solve the matter.
Devika: Malini kanna enna achu da? ( Malini dear what happened ?)
Malini: Ma, unga paiyana veliya kootitu ponga. I m very angry. ( Maa, take your son outside. I m very angry)
Devika: Enna da panna? ( What did you do boy ?)
Raghav: Maa avakitaye kelunga. ( Maa, ask her that )
Devika: Maalu nee sollu enna achu. ( Maalu, you yell me what happened )
Malini sobbed and wiped her fake tears and walked over to Devika and hugged her still with her fake cry.
Devika: Azhadha chellam enna panna sollu da. ( Don’t cry child. What did you do boy ?)
Malini: Maa, ivana yen ma enakku kalyanam panninga? ( Maa, why did you marry me to him?)
Devika stood rooted with those words and looked at Malini.
Devika: Yenna acchu da? ( what happened dear?)
Malini: Kalyanam aagi two days agudhu yarachum ippadi veetlaye irupanagala. Oru ice cream sapda kooda vida mattenguran ma. ( Its been two days of marriage and who stays at home like me. He doesn’t even let me eat ice cream)
Devika left her breathe which she held so long.
Raghav: Maalu exam mudiyama engeyum poga koodathu. ( Maalu, you will not go anywhere before your exams are over)
Malini: Enakku claustrophobhia vandhudum pola appadi torture panran enna. Eppo pathalum padi padi padi. Kadavule enna kaapatha yaarume illaya? ( I think I will get claustrophobia from the torture you give me. Always screaming at me to ready. God, is there anyone to save me ?)
Devika: Nee iru Maalu ma. Yenda ava chinna ponnu dhane ennamo indha exam ku ippadi torture panra avala. ( you wait Maalu. Hey she is still a little girl only and you are torturing her for this exam)
Raghav: Maa neengalum ava kooda senthu ippadi pesuringa. Last semester final exam olunga padichita apram enna pora ava. ( Maa, you too don’t join hands with her now. This is last semester and what will she do after that)
Devika: Ava ellam nalla padippa nee avala engayachum kootitu po. pavam avalum evlo naal veetlaye iruppa. ( She will do good. Now take her out somewhere. how long will she stay at home only. Pity her)
Malini: Nalla kelunga. Oru dinner, oru ice cream yedhuvum illa sollitan. ( Question him like that. He refused even for a dinner and an ice cream too)
Devika: Seri ippo lunch saptutu evening rendu dinner ku veliya ponga. ( Ok now have your lunch and evening you can go out for dinner)
Malini: Thank you Maa.
Devika: Yenna da kettucha? ( Hey did you hear ?)
Raghav: Kootitu poren vera vazhi. ( Do I have a way other than taking her out ?)
Devika: Seri sapda vaanga. ( Fine now come for lunch)
Devika went down leaving the duo who was now in a war of staring. Malini flicked her hair and left down while Raghav stood smiling at her disappearing figure.
Raghav called his friends and asked them to make some arrangements to surprise Malini and left downstairs and joined the family for lunch. Soon after lunch Devika called Raghav to her room.
Devika: Yen Raghav ippadi panra avalukku pudichadha seiya vendiyadhu thane. Ippo thane marriage ayirkku adhukkulla avala hurt panra. ( Why are you doing this Raghav ? Why can’t you behave to her wish ? You are married newly and you are hurting her ?)
R: Maa, avala pathi enakku theriyum. Marriage achunu naa change aana avalukku pudikadhu. Adhuvum illama nane initiate panni kootitu pona marriage nala naa force panra nu ava feel panna kodadhu la. Naa eppavum pola irundha le avalukku enna pudikkum so neenga adha pathi worry pannathinga naa paathukuren.
( Maa, I know about her. She won’t like if I change only because we are married. Moreover I don’t want her to feel that I m forcing her because we are married. She will like me only if I am the same as always so you don’t worry about anything. I will take care)
Devika: Rendu perum nalla irukkanum avlodhan da. ( I m want both of you to be happy)
Raghav: Don’t worry ma.
Raghav returned to room and saw Malini with her notes and studying sincerely.
Raghav: Enna sincere sigamani adhisayama sollamale padikura ( Hey sincere actor what is with you reading without me even saying to do it ?)
Malini: Evening padikka mudiyadhu la adhan compensate panren. ( I cannot read in the evening so I m compensating for it)
Raghav: Pannu pannu. Evening 5 ku ready agu. ( Do it do it. Be ready by 5 in the evening)
Malini: yen avlo seekiram dinner dhane porom. ( Why so early ? We are only going for dinner right?)
Raghav: oru edathukku kootitu polam nenachen venam na vidu. ( I thought of taking you to a place but leav eit you don’t want it)
Malini: Ayoo illa polam. Na ready aguren. Enga porom. ( Oh no, we will go. I will get ready. Where are we going ?)
Raghav: Adhuva adhu pona unakke theriyum. ( You will know once we reach the place)
Malini: Raghav sollu pa. ( Raghav, please tell me sweety)
Raghav: ippo mattum pa amma kitta avlo vati da sonna. ( Now I m sweety is it but you were calling me in singular to mother?)
Malini: theriyama solliten sorry. Ippo sollu enga porom. ( I did that out of innocence. Sorry, now tell me where are we going ?)
Raghav: Mudiyadhu. Evening paathuko. Ippo padi I too have some work. ( No, See it in the evening. Now read and I have some work to do)
Both sat with their works and study and by evening they got ready twinning in red and black and came down to see the parents. They bid bye and lft the home in his royal enfield. Malini sat in the back and held his shoulders. Soon he drove and reached a resort. Malini saw the resort and looked puzzled.
Malini: Pa resort edhukku vandhu irukkom? ( Why are we at resort ?)
Raghav: Ulla va theriyum. ( Come inside and you will know)
Malini held Raghav’s hand they walked inside the resort and she saw her friends Lekha, Arthi and Raghav’s friends waiting for them. Malini squealed and ran to them and they got in a group hug. Malini’s friends congratulated them for marriage.
Raghav: Seri polama? (ok shall we go ?)
Malini: Innum enga? ( Where to now ?)
Raghava held Malini’s hand and walked behind the resort which led to a private beach. Malini hugged Raghav thanking for the surprise. They all walked to the beach and started to play in the water. Malini spend a quality time with her friends when Raghav called her to have her favourite ice cream and she ran to him and took the ice cream rom him. Lekha and Arthi was witnessing all the moments Malini was sharing with Raghav and they felt genuinely happy for her.
Malini: Raghav enakku konjam deep la poganum kootitu po please. she asked with her puppy eyes. ( Raghav, I want to go a little more deep. Please take me.
Raghav: Seri va. (ok come)
He held her hand and walked into the water until the water reached above her hip. The held each other close and every time the wave made them stumble they leaned on each other and hugged to stay still. Their friends who were on the shore was looking at them. Finally Malini was tired and walked back to shore as Raghav held her close to him.
Malini: Dress lam wet ah irukku enna seiradhu ? ( Dress are wet. What should we do ?)
Raghav: Room reserve panniyachu ma. Poi change pannu. Dress kooda room la irukku. ( I have reserved room. Go change and dress is also in the room)
Malini: Ellame plan panni irukka ( you planned everything ?)
He gave the keys of the rooms to Malini and asked her to take her friends too for changing. He went with his friends for changing.
The girls got changed and were walking towards the restaurant of the resort where the boys would be waiting for them. Lekha nudged Arthi to start conversation.
Aarthi: Malini happy ah irukkiya ? Raghva than nee marriage pannuva nu naaga expect pannom but ippadi oru situation la agum nu expect pannala. ( Malini are you happy ? We expected you to get married to Raghav but not in this situation)
Malini stopped in her tracks and looked at her friends.
Lekha: appadi look vidadha. Malini seriously neeyum Raghavum perfect pair. Avara thavira vera yaarum unna nalla pathukka mattanga. ( don’t look like that. Malini in a serious talk you and Raghav are perfect pair. Other than him no one could care for you)
Malini: Raghav ennoda best friend. ( Raghav is my best friend)
Aarthi: Podhum stop pannu best friend na marriage panna koodadhu nu rule irukka. you guys know each other well and have a better understanding which is far enough for a marriage life.
( Enough stop it who said is there any rule that you should not marry your best friend ? )
Lekha: Actually you love Raghav but adhu unakku theriyala but ippo marriage ayiduchu la ippo nee adha realize pannuva. ( Actually you love Raghav but you haven’t realized it. But you are married now and you will soon realize it)
Malini: Nenga yen ippadi pesuringa? ( Why are you talking like this ?)
Aarthi: What we say is the truth Maalu. Try to understand. You both were fooling yourself by giving your relationship in the name of friendship but destiny has brought you both together.
Lekha: If you married someone else and Raghav was totally out of your life would you be able to accept it ?
Malini: No , Raghav yen life last vara irupan. (No, Raghav will be in my life forever)
Aarthi: Idha than nangalum solrom ( We too said that only). Give a try to this marriage and you will realize what is real love and who is that love for you. Believe me Raghav anna surely loves you.
Their convo was stopped by the voice of Raghav who came in search of Malini.
Raghav: Malini yen ivlo neram. Vaanga polam. ( Malini why you took so much time ? Come lets go )
He held her hand and walked as her friends walked next to her giving wink at her. Malini was looking at Raghav who was showing so much of care towards her but her mind questioned if did it out of friendship or love as her friends said. She ignored those thoughts for the momet and went to the table reserved for them.
Raghav and Malini sat next to each other and soon Sanjay and Prakash came with a cake and place infront of the couple.
Sanjay: Raghav, Malini lets celebrate your marriage now.
Raghav and Malini cut the cake together and fed each other and fed their friends too.
Prakash gave a envelop to Raghav and he opened it find tickets for a new released movie.
Raghav: Movie ticket Malini for tomorrow evening show.
Malini: polama? ( Shall we go ?)
Raghav: Unakku ok va? ( Is it ok for you ?)
Malini: double ok. Prakash anna thank you so much illana enna thriumba eppo veliya kootitu vandhuruppan theriyala. ( Prakash bro, thank you so much otherwise I don’t when he would have taken me outside )
Prakash turned to Raghav who gave a wink at him.
Prakash: Paravala thangachi adhan naa book panniten la. ( It sok sister, we did it right ?)
Malini: Thanks anna.(bro)
Bala: Seri pasikudhu pa. ( I m hungry man)
Sanjay called the waiter to serve the dinner and the food were all already decided by Raghav.
Malini gasped at the dishes which was served. All of which were her favourite. She looked at Raghav who shrugged his shoulders. They enjoye the dinner with lots of fun and banters. After the dinner Sanjay, Prakash and Bala left with Lekha and Arthi. Raghav and Malini drove towards their home. The cool sir and the tiredness made her doze off and he laid on his back while Raghav felt a shock in his spine. He stopped the bullet and took her hands from his shouler and placed it on his waist and started driving with one hand holding her hand on his waist. Upon reaching home he carried her in briday style without disturbing her sleep and laid her on the bed.
