Sakthi
It was already the second week of February. My days followed the same pattern. Attending classes, studying, chatting, and speaking via video calls with Jithu. The last two weeks have been mildly hectic since I had back-to-back assessments.
Finally, since no exams were scheduled for the following week, my classmates invited me to accompany them on a short trip. Everyone suggested visiting the Dolomites in the Alps because it was ski season. I initially refused to go with them because I was unfamiliar with skiing, but eventually agreed after they promised to teach me how to ski.
On Friday, after classes, we all went to Decathlon to rent ski equipment for our upcoming trip. We planned to leave on Saturday morning, spend the night there, and spend the rest of Sunday at the ski resort until that evening. After returning from Decathlon, I had lunch and called Jithu because I could not attend his phone call when he called earlier.
Me: Hi Jithu na friends kuda velia poirundhen to rent ski gear. Adha call cut panniten. Enna panra?
I noticed him at the station, still dressed in his uniform. He appeared to be more handsome than usual.
Jithu: Sking po poria? Eppo? Yarkuda?
Me: Nalaiki. Dolomites ku. Oru night stay, then next day evening return. Sari nee ipdi station la okandhu kadala podriye yarum onnum solla matangala? speaker la vera pesura, elarum kepangala nama pesuradha?
Jithu: Yarukum tamil theriadhu d inga and I am also in my room. Na onnum epaparu pesala epovadhu dha pesuren. Yellarum avanga avanga pondati ta pesadhadha na pesidaporen?
Me: Hmm, correct, dha.
Jithu: Yaar kudapora? Epdi pora?
Me: Nee vandhapo pathala? Andha, a UK couple, then Marco and Leonardo. Marco will bring his SUV.
Jithu: Sakthi ethanavati sonnalum puriadha unaku? When I asked you to stay away from him, you planned a ski trip with him. Na police Karen, I can sense that he likes you.
Me: Please podhum eppa paru idhey sollitrukadha. Apdiye interest, Irundhalum; he didn't do anything for that and never hinted at anything. Apdi irukapo yen avoid pannanum? Na onnum ingaye settle agi avankuda vaazh naal full ah ooru sutha porana? it's only until September. Aparam India dhaney varaporen, avan kudava suthitrukaporen? Don't be paranoid. This behaviour of yours is becoming increasingly irritating to me.
Also, unna dha boyfriend nu intro kuduthachula? So I am not available nu clear ah sollama solliachu. Jithu, please drop this.
Jithu: Sari, sorry. Avana enaku pudikala but inimey unta argue pannamaten. Please siri papa ipdi kovama nee nallavey illa.
Me: Pakadha nalla ilata.
Jithu: Vera vali illaye unnadhaney pakanum.
Me: No one is forcing you or holding you back. Paka nalla illata poda phone vachitu.
Jithu: En angry birdey jakradhaya poitu va d. Mama, two days ku busy adikadi ellam pesa mudiuma nu therila. Nee photo, Anupu Naraya. Video too.
Me: Hmm, ok.
Jithu: Dolomites photo illa d, un photo and video.
Me: Nalla illanu sonna?
Jithu: Na eppo d apdi sonen? kovama paaka nalla illanu dhaney d sonen? Sari moraikadha vidu ma. Unaku ski panna theriuma first? Nee paatla kelambi pora?
