Recap of yesterday - Sekar peeping through maama's
windows and maama unhappy about that look.Sekar goes
to his seat and the peon comes with some files. Sekar asks
him to send maama in. Maama comes in to meet him and
Sekar is asking about some stock check - Maama assures
that Mano has already talked about that and it will be done
the next day. Sekar goes on to ask about an outstanding
loan of 6 lakhs. Maama says that the customer is a good
person and has helped Mano a lot when he started this
business. He goes on to say that the money will come soon.
Sekar hesitantly asks about Senthil and wants to know if he
is related to maama or he got the job with maama's influence.
Since Senthil is seen with maama all the time, he is forced to
ask this. Maama answers with all his experience-" my vethilai
petti is with me - 24 hours a day for the past 30 years!! That
does not mean that I have to carry it on my head!!! I know
my limits and if people take things for granted, I can do
nothing" - leaves and Sekar has a sheepish look.
Sekar is pensive and thinking - " however I probe, maama
has an apt reply. I need to be careful with him" - Mano walks
in ( they still share the same cabin) and finds Sekar in a
trance. Mano asks about some work but Sekar is oblivious
to his presence. Mano goes to Sekar and calls out to him a
few times - Sekar still looks sheepish and tries to make up.
Mano gives him a look of disdain and asks about payment
list. Sekar says that he will get it ready soon and Mano is
not happy with that answer -Sekar wants to wash his face
and then get the list ready. He leaves and Mano is thoughtful.
Calls maama to his cabin. Maama comes to Mano who asks
about Sekar. Maama says that Sekar saw him and Senthil
talking to each other in the morning and gave a weird look -
" he asked me if I am related to Senthil as he is very friendly
with me". Mano asks about maama's reply and maama says
exactly the same words he said. Mano has a displeased look
and maama wants to know if he said some thing wrong to
Mano's BIL. Sekar again plays peeping Tom. Mano tells
maama that he does not care about relationship where
business is concerned and goes on to say that maama comes
next to him with regard to business. Any decision taken by
mama has his otal support. Mama laves after thanking Mano
and Sekar is angry that Mano never said a word of support
for his own BIL. Rajabother arrives to bother Kappu and
mom again!!! He has some kovil prasdam in his hands and
Kappu is sweeping today also - all set with the broom in her
hands to sweep Bother away!!! Kappu's mom admires him
in dhothi and says that he looks like a "mappillai". Bother
cunningly says that he wants to become one but Devi is not
willing. Mom blesses him " may all your dreams come true"
but Kappu is sweeping closer to Bother - as if she is sweeping
him out. Bother says that he came to get mom's blessings on
his B'day - falls at mom's feet much to the chagrin of Kappu.
Mom asks Kappu to make coffee, Kappu refuses and Bother
is all understanding. Kappu makes a rude remark about
the "kuppai" coming back always - both mom and Bother a
re shocked. Bother goes on to say that he went to
Karpagaambal temple and Kappu goes in angrily. Bother
wants to know if D took mom to the doctor and mom happily
says that D did just that. Bother gives a senti talk about growing
up in an orphanage and how he studied well to earn his living.
He goes on to boast that he is rich now and well settled but
has no one to call as his relative. He says that he met D ,
came to his house and immediately liked them - " only
money is lacking here, there is a lot of love and affection
in this house, wish I were part of this household." Mom is
only too willing to adopt him in to their family and asks him
to stay for lunch. Bother refuses the offer and says that he
will come some other day and have a "mapillai" feast.He
leaves and mom is sighing " thangamaana pillai, kattikka
entha ponnu kuduthu vaichirukkalO??" (Huubbbaaa, this
was a long segment - Roja is tired!!!)
Senthil is waiting for Kappu near annachi's shop. Kappu
is not to be seen. Annachi probes about their relationship
but Senthil is clear about feeding annachi with gossip. He
says that he is just helping Kappu in getting a job and he
has brought the reco letter. Annachi wonders as to why
Senthil can not meet her at home or send the letter by post.
He further offers to play postoffice - " since she has not
come so long, leave that letter with me, I can deliver".
Senthil agrees for this proposal and hands over the letter
to annachi - " pls tell her that I waited to meet her" - as he
is about to leave, he sees Bother's car going towards
Kappu's house - " oh, his car to Kappu's house?? that is
why she did not come??" -
