When Muthu and Karpagam reached the main gate, the main gate was closed. However, they both have access cards to enter into the colony. So, they have used it and got into the colony. They both were walking towards the passage, their minds were rewinding the thoughts 15 years ago. Their minds were regaining the memories about the day they came into this colony for work in 2009.
In 2009:
It is almost 3 years now, Muthu and his family moved to Palavakkam for their living. Muthu thinking in his mind that, the family expenses got high and he could not bear it all alone.
Muthu: We cannot run the family with this little daily wages.
Karpagam: Yes, am feeling the same. Now, Meena is also growing up and she has started going to Primary college.
Muthu: I don’t know what to do? I am trying to get a better job but no luck.
Karpagam: Can I also try for a work. I want to support you financially.
Muthu: If we both go for work, then who will take care of Meena?
Karpagam: Meena is going to college in the morning and come back to home in the mid afternoon. So, during this time, I will go for work.
Muthu: But what sort of work you would do during this time? Where will you go to work?
Karpagam: Our neighbour Gowri aunty was saying that, there is a requirement of doing household works in a colony. They are paying a decent pay, I can go to work after 9 and come back in the afternoon, This could be financially supportive for us.
Muthu: Ok then! It’s fine, but we should take care of our child.
Karpagam: Yes sure. I’ll try to join tomorrow itself.
Muthu: Ok…
Karpagam asked Gowri aunty about the work and got the address details from her. Next day morning she approached the colony. Karpagam reached the colony and pinned the intercom at the gate. She heard a voice in the intercom.
Ramanathan: Hello! Who is this?
Karpagam: Hello Sir! My name is Karpagam. Gowri aunty told me to meet you. Am here for the household works.
Ramanathan: Oh yes! Come in.
The main gate opened and Karpagam entered into the colony. She is mesmerised by the beauty of this colony.
She approached near the right side first home and found a lady standing outside of the home waiting for someone.
Jamuna: Are you Karpagam?
Karpagam: Yes madam! Am here for work.
Jamuna: Yes come in (I asked her to come in and went inside the home).
Karpagam: (What a beautiful home!)
After their basic chit chats, they discussed other things and finalised her work. She was told by Ramanathan, that what will be her work here, about her work timings and her salary. She said ok and bit satisfied with the conditions and salary, so she immediately joined the work and started working.
It’s been 2 weeks that Karpagam has started working here, she slowly comes to know other families in that colony. She started talking with Pallavi and Priya in free time. Priya was newly married and she is being living in that colony almost a month now.
One day, when Karpagam was doing household works in the kitchen Ramanathan came and asked Karpagam;
Ramanathan: Karpagam, we wanted to have a security to be placed for this colony,do you know someone?
Karpagam: Sir! My husband is struggling to find a job for 3 years. He does all sort of works you say. Can you please appoint him as a security here!!!
Ramanathan: (Thinking for few seconds and said) Ok! Ask him to meet me tomorrow, I’ll see what I can do.
In the evening, at Muthu’s hut, Muthu, Karpagam were eating their dinner while Meena was sleeping next to them.
Karpagam: Do you know one thing! today Ramanathan sir asked me that, if I know someone who can work in that colony as a security.
Muthu: What did you said?
Karpagam: What will I say, I said I don’t know any security!
Muthu: You could have told him that I can work as a security right?
Karpagam: Oh really! Now you will work as a security too (in a kidding tone and laughing)
Muthu: (In a series tone) Don’t make a fun of this. Am series!
Karpagam: Ok. Ok… Don’t get tensed. I was just kidding. I have already told him that my husband can work. He asked you to come and meet him tomorrow. So, go and meet him tomorrow morning. Ok.
Muthu: That’s my sweet and intelligent wife. I’ll go and meet him tomorrow morning for sure
Next day, Muthu went to sunshine colony to meet Ramanathan. When he reached the main gate, he pinged the intercom.
Ramanathan: Hello! Ramanathan here. Who is this?
Muthu: Good morning sir! Am Karpagam’s husband Muthu. Am here for the security work.
Ramanathan: Yes! come in (The main gate opened)
Muthu: (As soon as the gate opened, I went inside the colony. I felt, what a beautiful environment and well maintained place. I slowly approached towards the Ramanathan Sir’s home, there he was waiting outside).
Ramanathan: (Glanced Muthu too to bottom and I asked him) Do you have any experience in security job?
Muthu: No sir! I was just doing daily wages work, but I believe I can do it and I’ll learn it quickly).
Ramanathan: (Quite impressed by his honest answer) Ok (I started telling him what sort of work activities he is supposed to do , work timings and salary. I’ve asked him by when he can join the work).
Muthu: Now itself am ready to join sir.
Ramanathan: Good! Then get to your work now.
Muthu: Ok sir! Sure…
Now, Muthu has started working as a security in this place. He does all sort of works, such as ensuring the water level in the water tank, getting groceries, vegetables for the families who are living in that colony. He feels this work is better, and the payment is comparably good than the daily wages. He slowly comes to know every residents and their name in that colony and the residents are comfortable with him now.
