"I apologize for disturbing you, Mam. But I am here to inquire about my misplaced parcel!" Naveen said, keeping his tone formal. He was hesitant, and that was evident.

 

"Parcel?" She asked, as he wasn't too gettable for her to understand.

 

"My parcel was delivered to the wrong place because of the improper address! Will you please let me know if it's here?" He explained and quizzed at the end.

 

"No, I don't think so." She said this while thinking to herself.

 

Nithya's mind was constantly trying to remind her about something related to the word parcel. 

 

"Okay, sorry for the disturbance!" Naveen said, feeling unsettled because the parcel had not been found and for agitating a young lady. 

 

Before Naveen could turn and leave, Nithya said, "A second, sir!" 

 

Naveen turned and stayed unaware of what to do. Nithya immediately went into her room, and after her disappearance, some kind of argument was heard by Naveen, which kept him perplexed. 

 

"Na ipe yena pane? Avar Vandhurkar. (What should I do now? He has come here.)" Nithya said this as she was on call with her mother. 

 

"Yenak yenai teriyun avan ipdi varuvan? (How come I know that he will come like this?)" Her mother said.

 

I was stuck in an awkward situation now that, due to some misunderstanding, my mother took the parcel with her to her native. I had kept the parcel in my cupboard to later hand it to the watchman, but before I could use the idea, my mother left the apartment carrying the parcel with her. What's my fault? 

 

"Kaduvule! (God!)" She exclaimed, stomping her foot.
