Konjum Salangai
"Amma..naan schooluku poren" shouted Priya rushing out of the house.
"Ding Dong..Ding Dong"
"Kaalangaathaala yaaru ithu calling bell adichikittu" nu pulambiavaaray came Anu, Priya's mother and opened the door.
"Vanakkam. Naanga "Anbu Illam" orphanagelenthu varom. Unga veetla school pasanga padikkara mathiri used books ethaachum iruntha donate panna mudiyuma. Enga kozhanthaigalukku usefulla irukum"
Anu looked back at her husband who was looking blankly into the newspaper.
"Kudukattuma?"
"mmmm" said Anil.
"Ellathaiyuma?"
She only got a sickening silence for response.
Priya came home back calling out loud in her sing song voice..."Ammmmaaaaaaa....pasikuthu"
Anu was talking to her maid.."Aiya vantha coffee poattu kuduthuru..naan kovilukku kelambaren"
"Amma..." stood the maid, scratching her head
"Enna"
"onnu ketta thappa nenachukka maateengalay"
"Enna sambalam ethanuma? intha maasam thaana 50 rupees increase pannom"
"athu illama...vanthu...Priya kannu schoolla thaan en ponnum padikara. Avanga uniform ethaacchum pazhasu iruntha kudutheenganna"
Anu stood in silence.
"Thappa nenachukatheegamma..naan ketrukka koodathu..mannichukunga"
"Illa...iru..naaliku vaa tharen" said Anu turning back into the house.
"Ennama aachu..en kann kalangureenga.."
"Cha..athelaam ila...ithana naalaachu...inimay enna....contact lense uruthuthu..athaan..normal glass poattuka poren"
Anil came home some time later and plonked himself onto the sofa.
"Haiyaa..jolly....Appa vanthaachu" Priya was jumping with joy..."Appa...vaappa...naama velaadalaam"
"Aiya..."disturbed the maid..
"..amma ungaluku coffee poattu flaskla vachirukennu solla sonaanga..koviluku poirukaanga..."
He was unmindful of what she was telling and was looking pointedly at the newspaper on the table.
"Aiya.."
"hmmm?"
"Naan kelambaren"
"mmmm"
"Cha..intha veetla naan oruthi irukarathaiye ellarum maranthutaanga..." stomped off Priya in anger.
The newspaper, dated 5 years back, fluttered in the late evening breeze. On the front page carried news of that tragic accident.
"School kid killed in Hit and Run accident"
"Ding Dong..Ding Dong"
