Pillion rider 2 - The Reception

Oru vazhiya chennai vanthu saenthen. Vara vaendiya nerathukku, oru mani neram late. Yaro, romba kovamaa irunthaanga. Phone panna udaney, "eri malai eppadi vedikkum" ringtone pora mathiri irunthuchu. Sorry, delay, ok, seri, sorry, ok, thirupee call panren nu status update panitu. Luggage collect panitu velila vantha akka + amma + aaya wait panittu irunthaanga. Goods vandila nilakari allik pottu vantha mathiri iruntha akka, seems her journey was so tiring. While mom and aaya were waiting for Ashok mama. Akka had a set of things to do and I had a special person to meet.

Appuram ena, electric train pidichi Mambalam poitom(TNagar) - the shopping hub of Chennai. Fact that Omana was coming with me made someone to take extra time to get ready. Chennai as usual felt like home. Akka kooda shopping nu vanthutta, watch kazhati vechidanum. Anaiku athisayamaa shopping 2 hours la mudinjiduchu. Omana got her bling and stuff, we grazed around pondy bazaar and decided to have lunch at GN Chetty road.

Having got seated, I was glancing at the door whenever it was opened. Mathu didn't keep me waiting much as well by walking in about 5 mins. She came with Sham, while we were munching on some starters. Can see that she was excited and a bit nervous, supremely confident on the outside though. Bouquets to her machi, how thoughtful and chweet. That evening fizzed away quite rapidly. Bought a kurtha for the reception next day.

Rightu, neramaachu, phone vanthaachu, maama calling, met maama+aaya. Vazhakkam polave maama assertive comedy try panitu iruntharu. Government bus kooda seekiram poyee irukkum, enga driver 55-60 la urutti, pondy vanthu serave oru evening 7 aaiduchu. Usualaa nadakkura last minute kelambura scene laam mudinju,  big beach(Mahindra resorts) ku finally kelambinom. Oru 25-30 pola makkal iruppaanga. Nan ethir paathatha vida, anga iruntha elaarukkum ena therinju irukku. Was not a blast, but had a nice time. Came back drunk but not high. Bacardi Limone was smooth.

Next-u day, ootukaarama ku phone, night sarakku la, so konjam dose. Konjam alachal, resort ku poyee - bill settle panittu vanthom. Then Isha+Anand mama+Legha vanthirunthaanga, mathiyam poora Isha paapa koodave pochu, rombave kova padra, adam pidikkala but enna venum/venaam ndrathula clearaa iruka. Kedacha gapla, took Omi out for shopping, and went with Anand mama for buying some fruits. Innum konja nerathula, bus from Chennai.
