Dada came to the airport to pick me up. On the way to the flat in the taxi, I called Jithu on WhatsApp.
Mama😘 : Solri veetuku poitrukia?
Me: ama. Enna panra?
Mama😘: I miss you even more than before. Eppo d yen kudavey iruka pora?
Me: Therilaye.
Mama😘: Enna d oru madri mulikira? un dada irukara taxi la?

Me: Hmm, me too.
Mama😘: Headphone potrukia illa speaker la iruka?
Me: Patha therilaya unaku?
Mama😘: Therilaye un hair, ears ah full ah cover pannirukey.
I adjusted my hair so that he could see my airpods.
Mama😘: Superu. Unna uncle innum chinna papa nu nenachitu irukaru. Ana nee enkuda ennalam pannanu sollata? Oru kanni paiyan manasa keduthu vachitu, nee patla ooruku poiruka, ambhonu thania vitutu.
I gave him a stern look.

Mama😘: Illa venam. Saptu thungu. Endrichu pesu.
Me: Appo unaku midnight aidumey.
Mama😘: Paravala, pondati kuda night shift ku ippovey palagikiren.
As he winked, I understood his double meaning and blushed.
Me: OK, bye.
Mama😘: I love you nu unga appa vandhu solluvara?
Me: Aprama solren.
Mama😘: Vekkama? Never shy away from showing your love, papa. Yaradhu adhu thappu nu sonnadha thappu. I want to set an example for our kids, so start making a habit of showing your love before others. Ippo come on, mamaku I love you, sollu.
I looked him in the eye and my lips automatically curled into a smile.
Me: I love you.
Mama😘: I too love you and next time yellar munnadium kiss kudukradhuku, practice pannalam. Bye, d thakkali.
Me: Loosu, bye.
I hung up the phone, looked up, and noticed Dada was watching me with a smile. When I raised my eyebrows in question, he asked with a teasing smile, "Oruvalia avanta love panrenu sollitapola ?"
