“Oh! Vivek, it is nothing. I called her but she didn’t pick hers so I was worried. That is why I was searching her.”
“Did you find her? Where was she? Is she okay?”
“Yes. Your friend is okay. She was near the fountain.”
“Oh cool then. So how your meeting went?”
“It was a success. Have to work on the proceedings now.”
He shook hands with him and said,” Congrats dude.”
They both completed their work and started to head home. Varun went home and saw his paatti who was watching television. He went to her and said,” Hi Paatti.”
She held his ears and twisted it. He cried in pain saying,” Paatti, It is paining.”
“Let it pain. Why didn’t you speak to me yesterday? Do you know how long I waited for you?”
“Paatti, I came late yesterday. I came to speak to you but I saw you sleeping so I went off.”
Vasuki came and handed a towel in his hands and spoke,” Refresh yourself. Do you want tea or coffee?”
Meanwhile Padmanabhan also arrived from office. He came inside and hearing Vasuki he shouted from verandah removing off his slippers,” Coffee for me too.”
Everyone saw him and Vasuki asked,” Varun, What about you?”
“Ma, Anything as per your wish.”
