Mudhal mudhalil parthen..-II

Ok, as promised, here is the part 2 of the story:

Innoru room-ku ponoma, he sat, and naan konja neram nikkaradha utkararadha-nu yochitrundhen (no one had taught me, and all movies had the girl standing), appo payyane utkarunga utkarunga-nu solli varpuruthinadhala (mattumdhan) naan utkarndhen.

Utkarndha udane he started talking about himself, naan inga work panren, enaku ivalo salary, indha madhiri family nanga adhu idhu-nu. Seri right, naamalum same type of information bytes transfer panvom-nu naanum sonnen.

He: Neenga velaiku ponum-nellam kidayadhu, house wife-a irundha kooda enaku ok
Me: Illa, I am career oriented (carrier eduthukittu office poye theeruvenama)
He: Compulsion ellam kidayadhu, neenga poganum na pogalam, illana its fine. I can support the family.
Me: Illa, I would prefer working, but if I decide one day that I want to stay at home, I should be able to do that. (adhavadhu naan velaiku pogalanalum vachu thanda soru potte aganum, adhan enga condition)
He: Ok cool, enna plans vachirukeenga?
Me: MBA pannalam-nu idea, IIM target panren (seri seri, enaku light-a arivu illamaya poidum?)
He: Oh fantastic, en friends kitta material vangi tharen
Me: (ennadhu? friends kittaya? naama innum mutually ok kooda sollikala, adhukulla promise ellam panraru? Oruvelai othukalanalum friends policy?) oh ok, sounds good
He: Enaku indha indha idathula ellam lands iruku, so wherever you are interested in these places, we can get a house built. Illana kooda andha lands-ku nalla value
Me: (*More bewildered* naan solra edathula veeda? ayyo kuzhaparare, adhu eppadi ennai pidikudha illayanu kooda decide pannama arasiyal vakkurudhi ellam?) mm..

Inga ennoda appa entry kodutharu. He was already tensed that the guy had asked to talk to me alone, ennada panranga ivanga-ntu he came with the pretext of asking the payyan if he wants coffee or water. Enaku sema siripu, 'appa, enpa unaku indha tension'-nu. Payyan vendam-nu soltar, and my dad was standing there not knowing what to do, then he reluctantly left the place. Then we continued..

He: Enna interests ungaluku? naan movies buff, ella moviesum parpen
Me: Enaku suthama movies pidikadhu, I go only if I am compelled. I am interested in reading books. I just try my hand in drawing and painting. And I love traveling.
He: Reading books? Enaku suttu pottalum varadha pazhakkam adhu!
Me: (aaha, enna porutham!) :) oho seri..naan ippokooda was reading John Grisham's The Client while waiting inside.
He: (laughs) Endha place-ellam poganum neenga? I have travelled to all places, if you want to settle abroad, we can do that.
Me: (Whoa! enna nadakudhu naatla? If I want-a? nambadha Usha, arasiyalvadhi type poliruku, votes ellam collect panrar payyan!) he he
He: so unga job profile enna? Evlo experience ungaluku?

Ingerndhu ellam interview range-ku ponadhanala, censored. Kadaiseela nanga velila varumpodhu, ellarum sema tension-la irundhanga. Everyone had the same question on their faces "30 minutes ennadhan pesineenga appadi?"..

Konja neram pesitu they left, and ellarum were tensed. Naan mattum decide panniten, eppadiyum payyan wants a housewife and wants to settle in India (background soltanga-la!), and naama opposite, work out aagadhu-nu. But I was telling my Mom, "Ivaroda height-ku ennai thavira yaarum vazhkai thara mudiyadhuma chennai-la"-nu kindal pannitrundhen (he he)

Next day was fun, suthama call varala. Ivanga ellam enna appadi pesina, they arent even responding-nu ore imsai ennai. I was saying "cool ma, first person to meet me, udane mudinjidanuma enna?" and all that. (enna panradhu, disappointment kattika mudiyuma enna? enna irundhalum handsome person *sigh*). "Payyan veetlerndhudhane call varum, naama epadi kekkardhu?" - amma's anguish.

Scene shifts to payyan house: Payyan angayum ingayum suthararu, and he looks at himself in the mirror 'ponnuku ennai pidikalaya?, en call-e varala?' - "Enna ponnu veetlerndhu no call? Amma, can you call up?", "Illada, ponnu veetlerndhu dhan call varum, that is procedure". 'Enna procedure-o!'-nu kaduppagi, payyan kilambi cousin veetuku porar. Anga poi restless-a suthittu, cousin brother kitta, "anna, neenga panreengala?" "illapa, ponnu veetladhan call panvanga.." "Romba sandosham!". He again goes around the entire house restlessly, and it is 5 PM. Still no calls?! What the heck-nu, "anna, ippo neenga call panreengala, or shall I call up directly and ask?". Cousin anna arandu poi, "ayyayo illapa, naane pannaren, casual-a visarikaren"-ntu he made a call.

Enga veedu: *Tring tring* "Phone vandachu!! Amma, phone eduma!" - my anna (aama oorla phone namma veetlayum payyan veetla mattumdhan iruku!). Amma eduthu listens to something, and says "Yeah yeah, ponnuku ok, payyanuku?" (dhoda! ennai kekkave illa? naandhane adhai sollanum?). After a few thavippana seconds, a bright expression came over her face, and she told me, "Usha, nalaiku unnai payyanoda amma, periamma elam parka varanga, definitely saree!!"

PS: Porkodi, Viji and Ravi, part 2 pottuten, inimel you cannot scold me, I have kept my word. Erkaneve there are speculations that naan mokkaiya mudipen-nu ;), hope I have met that expectation. Jagan, ippadilam unmai pesina appuram en photo munpakkam thirumbum, ellarum bulb vanguveenga..grr!
