Kathir turned towards mullai.. His face beaming with lots of love and enthusiasm as though he waited for this for quiet long time...

Mullai was blushing hard.. Her face as red as an apple and lips curved with her signature smile.. kathir could feel the warmth in her cheeks..
Admiringly touched her cheeks to feel it... Both their smiles widened more...

M : Santhoshama ipo??

K : romba romba.. (delighted)
Aama per soli tha kupida sonen.. athu ena extra bit.. dei poda elamm...

M : oru extra kick ku tha antha extra bit (winks)
Epadi iruku enoda kick..

K : (lifts his eye brows in appreciation) chumma apadi iruku...

M : apadi na??

K : aaapadii... ( stressing on the word more)

M: epadi ??

K : apadiye kaathu la parakara madhiri... ( hits his forehead to hers with lots of love)

Mullai pinches his nose happily and asks

M: sari ipo potu vidarengala..

Kathir nods enthusiastically and gets thali in hand and glances her..

K : Oi Ipo una paaka epadi iruku theriyuma ??

M : epadi?? (Eye brows raising questioningly )

K : ipadi thirumbu..

Kathir makes her turn and face the mirror and he stands behind her such that both can see each other..

Kathir is seeing mullai's face and mullai sees kathir's face in mirror..
The moment passes in silence..

Kathir breaks the moment and places his chin in her shoulder with a wider smile..

M : solunga epadi iruken...

K: en pondati mullai madhiri illaa..

M: appuram???

K : en mama ponnu mullai madhiri iruka...

M : enathu?? ( astonished and confused with this answer)

K : ( holding thali in one hand moves his other hand to mullai's forehead where she used to keep kumkum) inga kumkumam illa...

( plays around her neck slowly) inga thali illaa..

Athan sonen...

Mullai smiles at his answer and takes his hands, wraps around her hip... He tightens the grip more.. still the eye lock hasnt changed...

M : ungaluku tha unga mama ponna pidikathe.. ( she couldnt hide her pain in those words)

K: apadinu sonangala????
