Kavya… it's raining! What are you doing up there?
-Come down! -I have an umbrella, Mom!
I will not get wet!
Just come down, Kavya!
I'll be down in five minutes, Mom!
Kavya!
Stop dragging your feet while you walk.
How many times do I have to tell you?
-Kavya! -What is it, Mom?
Your shoes will get torn.
What's your problem?
Dad bought it for me.
-You are such a big mouth! -Hey!
Dad, don't call the dog.
Dad, don't call that dog. Just don't!
-Come with me. -Dad!
They won't do anything. Don't get scared!
-Look at me. -Don't call them.
-Hi, my dear. -Don't get scared, Kavya.
-They won't do anything. -Don't get it near me.
-See! -What's your name?
-Come with me. -Come, Mom! Let's go.
-Look at how cute they are. -Come with me, Mom.
Let's go, Vijay.
They won't do anything. Don't get scared.
-Let's go, Mom. -Hey!
Don't walk on the road. The vehicles are passing by.
-Come, Vijay! -Let's go, Mom.
Look at how cutely they are walking.
-Come with me. -Look at that dog's teeth.
He will realize only when he gets bitten by the dog.
Come with me.
Oh, no!
I got chased by a dog today.
That's the dog you pamper!
Just because you pamper all the street dogs,
they keep chasing me every day.
Please stop pampering them, Dad!
Please don't pamper them!
Such a dog!
In spite of telling him so many times, he still makes the same mistake.
Boss…
-don't compare humans with dogs. -Why?
Just don't!
Don't act smart with me, Kavya! I will whack you!
You can do all this with your dad!
Why did you change that?
I am going to throw it out!
Throw it!
I will ask dad to get me another one.
Kavya!
-What happened? -Nothing, Dad.
I was just telling you
that the dress I saw in Frozen movie is beautiful.
-Oh! -Dad, don't call it.
Dad…
Don't! Just come with me.
Please, Dad! Don't call it.
Please, Dad! Don't!
-Come with me. -Dad.
-Dad! -Just listen to me. Come!
-Come this side. -Oh! No!
-Come here. -Dad!
Don't get scared. It's nothing.
-Please, Dad! -Don't, Buddy!
-Okay! -Let's go, Dad.
Be careful! The vehicles are passing on the road!
It's going to bite me.
-Let's go, Dad! -The vehicle will hit you!
-Nothing will happen to you. -Sit.
-Dad, I'm scared! -Nothing will happen.
-What's its name? -Buddy.
-Hi, Buddy! How are you? -Dad, let's go.
-Please, Dad! -Don't be scared. Give me your hand.
Buddy, shake hands.
-Please let's go, Dad. -Shake hand, Buddy.
-Dad. -Shake hand.
Wow! Superb!
-Dad. -Nice meeting you, Buddy.
-He likes you.
You remind me of my office manager.
This is how it was when I shook his hand for the first time.
Aren't you cute?
He likes you a lot.
Doesn't it look like dad's office manager.
Look at me.
-Will you come home with me? -Enough, Dad.
-Let's go, Dad. -No!
You should get a dog.
Let's go, Dad. Please!
Let's go, Dad.
Okay. I am going to get one as cute as you.
-Okay? -Dad!
Okay, fine.
Coming!
You're sitting right. Can't you open the door?
-Why are you facing that side? -Because I'm back!
-Hey! Turn around. -Surprise.
Hi.
-Where is she? -She is inside.
Are you ready, munchkin?
Go!
Where's he going?
Go in front. Come on.
Surprise!
Oh, no!
What's this?
First take this out.
Don't be scared, Kavya. It's just a small puppy.
See how cute and chubby he looks.
Come here.
-Isn't it cute? -Hello!
Looks cute, right?
Why are you glaring at me?
That's not for you. I got it for your mom.
Hey! Don't just teach him your mother tongue.
Teach him Tamil as well.
Cutie!
What are you looking at?
Such a cutie!
Are you getting scared of him?
Come here.
Hello.
Touch him.
-Will he bite? -He is so cute.
Be careful.
Look here. Give your finger.
Give it to it.
He has no teeth.
Do you want to carry him?
Hold him like this.
An enigma
Scooby!
-Do you like him? -Yes.
He seems to have settled in.
Why does he have this, Dad?
-I don't know. -What is this?
What?
-Not here. You go to Kavya. -Come here.
-She's only your friend. -Come here.
Come to me, munchkin.
What is it?
Where are you going?
Why is he not coming to me, Dad?
He was with me all this while.
So, he's gotten used to me.
Where you going?
Hey!
Hey, shorty!
Someone
Why do I sense
Something within?
Someone gently is
Embracing the love on her own
Be gentle
He engulfs me Bouncing in my hand, this enchanter!
Hey, enchanter! My enchanter!
Enchanter!
Wait!
Dad!
He knows that you are coming.
He knows the fragrance of love
Hey! My mister cuddles!
He who became a part
Of our nest, oh, my amigo!
Hereafter there won't exist
A single day without the joy of playing
Hereafter there won't exist a single day
Where you won't search for me
What happened?
Hey!
What do you want?
Biscuit!
Scooby.
Where's your sister?
Like a child, it comes running to you
You will not look there.
I look for him
All living beings are equals
You taught me through your love!
You shouldn't look.
-Come here. -Hey, enchanter!
Hey, Scooby.
Like a child, it comes running to you
Oh, here you are!
My sweet dog.
Didn't Kavya let you go?
Hey! What is it?
You pet him and I'll pet you.
-That's my pet. -I've made sandwiches. Go have it.
This is my pet.
-Hey, Scooby. -Scooby.
Scooby! Come here.
-Would your mother be jealous by now? -To heck with them.
What?
Go! Scooby will make your sandwiches for you.
Mom, we were kidding.
Look at Scooby.
Hey!
-Scooby! -Come here, Scooby.
Come here! Scooby!
-Hey! -Oh!
Everything…
Was new
-Scooby! -As my family!
Scooby!
This is for posterity!
I was always within me
I was floating like an island
Everything changed
Because of you!
You disobeyed my words
-Sit. -Like a child being bestowed on me
-Naughty dog! -The happiness you
Bring is priceless
-Come to me, my enchanter -Hi, Scooby.
My Enchanter!
-Come to me, Mister Cuddles! -Mister Cuddles!
-Come to me, my enchanter! -My enchanter!
-Come to me, my amigo! -My amigo!
Running helter-skelter, picking fights
My angry boy!
Roaming around at your will Amassing troubles
My fighter cock!
Dodging everyone Never ever getting trapped
My smarty pants!
Coming home Never going elsewhere
My mischief monger!
Did you pull a fight on the street?
Look at me.
Look at me. Did you fight with somebody?
Scooby!
Scooby, did you fight with somebody?
Should I whack you?
Look at me.
Why did you do that?
What did he do?
He fought, Dad.
Can't you play at home?
I will whack you!
Come, let's play.
Let's play now.
Don't be upset. Come, let's play.
-Hey, enchanter! -My enchanter!
Hey, enchanter! My enchanter!
No, Scooby! No!
Scooby!
No!
-Scooby! -No!
Scooby!
Look at me, Scooby.
Hey, Mani.
He's just a puppy. Don't be scared.
Scooby, you've become a very bad boy.
Sorry, Uncle!
That's alright, dear.
It is hyper because it is young.
You have become a very bad boy, Scooby.
I'm not going to talk to you tomorrow.
Scooby!
Scooby! I am here!
Scooby!
Hi! Okay, I'm coming. Stop barking.
Scooby!
Did your sister yell at you?
Hey, Scooby.
Hey, Scooby!
Scooby!
I'm the one who feeds you.
But you wag your tail for her.
Move Scooby.
Bad boy.
I won't talk to you.
Go and sit there.
He got spoilt because of you.
Why are you behaving like this?
He's been waiting for you from the morning.
You deserve it.
Mom!
Don't scream.
Where is my math book?
Check if it's in the veranda.
Mom, I'll just the book to Janani and come.
Okay.
Lock the gate and go.
Kavya!
Scooby!
Kavya!
Kavya! Look he's coming behind you.
Why did you bring him along?
That's why I'm standing outside.
He won't do anything.
Close the gate, Kavya!
Okay, Mom!
He won't go anywhere. I will take care.
Give the book.
Don't get scared. He won't do anything.
Why do you take leaves?
Complete everything by tomorrow and come to school.
What's he doing?
I've been ignoring him since morning.
That's why. He wants me to pamper him.
Hey!
-Poor thing. -Scooby!
Nonsense!
He's been fighting with all the dogs on the street.
He's running away somewhere.
Hey, Scooby!
Come here. Uncle, please catch him.
Hey! Mom!
Kavya!
Kavya.
Carry him.
Hold the bike.
Auntie, the bike ran over him.
-Ka-- -Carry him.
Kavya, you go home.
Scooby?
The bike ran over Scooby.
Just sit here for a while.
What happened to the dog?
-Kavya! -Oh, no!
Don't look at this. You go home, dear.
You don't stand here. Go home.
I'm telling you.
Oh, no!
Kavya.
Take her home.
You take her home.
The dog has passed away.
She must have gotten really scared.
I'll take him.
Please inform your husband.
I'll take care of this. You take her home.
Yes.
-Scooby passed away, Vijay. -Hey.
What are you saying?
Kavya went out. The gate was open.
Scooby scooted towards the road.
By the time I reached, the bike…
Did Kavya see it?
I made a mistake.
I should've gone.
I just stayed upstairs.
Kavya is in severe shock. She's not saying a word.
-I went… by then the bike had-- -Okay.
I'm coming home.
I will come and make her understand.
I'm not able to do anything, Vijay.
-Don't cry. -I don't know what to do.
Don't cry, I'm coming.
Please come.
I'll come and handle it.
Dad, Mom warned me so many times.
-I only did not pay heed. -No darling.
-It's not your fault. -I am sorry.
It's not your fault.
-It's a dog's trait. -Sorry, Dad.
He will run and play.
He would have just scooted off in excitement.
It did not happen because of you.
Don't I know about you?
I know how well you take care of Scooby.
How can this happen because of you?
-You looked after him like me. -No that is--
Sorry, Dad.
He got excited and ran away and that's how this happened.
What can we do?
Where is it?
The ironman is taking care of it.
I'll check and be back.
Dad, I'll come along.
Stay here with me.
No, I will come.
You shouldn't go there, Kavya.
No, I will come. Please, Dad.
Kavya, this dog's body is a fantastic fertilizer for the tree.
Just wait and watch for six months.
The tree will be green and blooming!
-Bro. -Yes.
Come, let's go.
The dog has not died. It has become the fertilizer.
It will always stay with us.
He will never leave us. It will be here
in the form of a tree.
Okay.
-I'll leave. -Okay, sir.
Go and have bath. We will have food.
Kavya.
Kavya, are you going to bathe or not?
What happened?
She saw Scooby's leash and got upset.
Kavya.
Kavya, you should respond when you are called.
I felt sleepy.
Sorry, Dad.
Shall we order pizza?
I'm not hungry, Dad.
Kavya.
If a pet passes away…
it means that a major disaster was to befall on our family
and that averted by him, darling.
But he's also family, right?
Yes.
How do I explain it to you?
You're right.
Shall I cook today?
Cook tomorrow, Dad.
You go and eat, Dad.
Kavya, wake up. It's getting late.
Kavya!
Where is she? She's still sleeping.
Call her. Kavya!
Go and call her.
Call her.
Go. Go.
Don't spare her.
Scooby!
Dad!
Kavya!
Are you ready?
It's time for school.
Kavya!
Kavya, have you had your bath?
Why haven't you drunk your milk?
It's still here.
What?
Hey!
All will be fine
once she goes to school and shares everything with her friends.
You too…
should step outside after she leaves to school.
Okay?
Kavya!
Shall we go to school?
Dad, I don't want to go to school today.
Sweetheart, shouldn't you go to school?
Let her not go today.
Okay, don't go. Come here.
Kavya!
She's still thinking about him and crying.
She's feeling very guilty.
I'm leaving for office, darling.
Bye!
Really? What about breakfast?
You're in "cry baby" mode. I don't want it.
I'll eat outside.
What crap!
Don't leave.
I'll pack lunch for you.
Kavya, bye.
Kavya, dad's leaving to office.
Bye, Dad.
Come here and tell him.
Leave it. Let her be.
Bye.
Sweetheart, at least change your uniform.
Okay, Mom.
What do you want for breakfast?
I'm not hungry, Mom.
Last night also you didn't eat anything.
I've packed roti and jam rolls for your lunch.
Would you like to eat that?
Okay.
I've kept it on the table. Come and eat it.
Please, Kavya.
Okay.
-Are you feeling sleepy? -No, Mom.
Okay.
I'll bathe and come. Then let's eat.
Okay, Mom. Have your bath.
Then both of us can eat together.
Kavya…
get mom her towel.
Please, my love.
Go and change your uniform.
It's still school hours. Why should I change?
What will happen if I change later?
I am not able to handle this, Vijay.
Neither has she eaten nor done anything since morning.
She snaps when I ask her something.
There is so much work at home and I'm unable to do anything.
All days aren't going to be the same.
You have to adjust for a few days.
Are you a child or is she a child?
I don't know whom I'm going to pacify.
Okay, forget it.
You do your work. I'll do mine.
Lunch is ready.
Kavya!
You should be here before mom starts eating.
Kavya!
That's enough.
-No! -You haven't eaten anything since morning.
Why have you served so much, Mom?
I will never eat so much.
I am sorry, sweetheart.
I yelled at you in anger. Sorry.
I am also upset.
What can we do?
Everything will be fine in a few days.
Trust me.
Now eat.
There is nothing wrong with me, Mom.
I'm perfectly normal.
First, you have to accept the happenings.
Only then things will get better.
There is nothing wrong with me, Mom.
Please don't judge me.
I will whack you! Big mouth!
First you start talking like a little girl.
Don't talk like an adult. Eat!
I'm not a small girl.
Don't always…
I don't feel like eating.
Kavya, what--
Come here.
Okay, don't eat. I'm going to eat.
Let me see what you do.
-Hello. -Hello.
Yes, tell me.
I'm not able to take it, Vijay.
Was I the one who got her Scooby?
Why is she venting out her anger at me?
It's been so long since I asked her to change her uniform.
Hasn't she changed her uniform yet?
No!
She's reacting very aggressively.
I don't know what to do.
Did she at least have her lunch?
She hasn't eaten anything.
She hasn't sipped water since morning.
She's getting annoyed at the sight of me.
I'll wait on the veranda until you are here.
I'm not going to go inside.
I'm not able to take it.
Come fast for heaven's sake!
Okay.
I'll come immediately.
Hi. Good evening, ma'am.
How can I help you? Okay!
Good evening, Kavya.
Good evening, Dad.
Turn around and talk to me, my dear.
Why haven't you changed your attire?
Mom is feeling terrible because she couldn't save Scooby. Do you know that?
If you are going to be like that, then it will be difficult for Mom.
Let's get another Scooby, okay?
No, Dad! Let's not!
Please, Dad.
Change your attire.
What?
You asked me to change my attire.
You should go to school tomorrow, okay?
I will, Dad.
Will you eat something?
Oh, God!
She was scared of dogs.
Probably we should have just let her be that way.
Now this is worse.
Radhika…
we know that a mirror can break,
but don't we still hang it in our homes?
I'm trying to tell you that this is something I anticipated.
-What? -No!
I meant that after I got her Scooby,
I knew he would become her playmate,
and after 15 years, when she's 25,
and he's a part of her being…
he will die.
I wondered how my daughter would…
handle that and that is what I anticipated.
I didn't expect something like this to happen so soon.
We should get used to everything.
What to do?
She will learn.
She is a small girl.
What?
-What? -Well…
you're able to foresee…
that after 15 years, your daughter will be upset.
Scooby is not there. I'm feeling guilty, and you know that.
But you're only looking out for your daughter and consoling her.
Because she's your daughter after all.
Who will console me? Who am I?
Did you even give it a thought?
Hey!
Okay, come here.
-What? -Okay, come.
Sit here.
See…
She's a small kid.
So I don't know how she's going to endure it.
I feel I made a mistake.
No.
She is a small kid.
She'll be fine.
It's only difficult for us.
Kavya… you have yet not had your milk.
Kavya!
Oh, God! This girl!
Why haven't you had the milk as yet?
Hey! Drink it.
It's getting late for school.
Mom, I'm not going to school today.
Just today.
Okay, you needn't go to school.
Come sit here.
Even I am not going to go to the office today.
Let the three of us just hang around in Scooby's veranda.
The entire day!
Drink the milk.
I don't want to, Dad.
Why?
Scooby, Dad.
All these things are a part of life, darling.
You should face it.
You're not the reason for this. Trust me.
Okay?
Drink.
Shall I help you with something, Mom?
Mom.
No need, sweetheart.
Did you eat yesterday?
-Mom? -No, Kavya.
Mom, I'm really very sorry.
I wasted the food you had cooked for me.
I left you alone as well, Mom.
Sorry, Mom.
It's okay.
-Forget it. -I'll go to school today, Mom.
Why?
Don't go today.
Like dad said, let's all of us spend time together today.
Go and sit in the veranda.
I'm not going alone.
You come as well.
Hey! Get me a coffee.
You just had a coffee.
Won't you get me another coffee?
Radhika.
Why is your mom taking so long for a coffee?
Radhika!
Radhika, what are you doing?
Why are you taking so long to make one coffee?
What is this?
Hey! I don't want coffee.
You've left her alone.
That's why I put on this whole charade.
Let her be.
Let her be alone for sometime.
Let her be reminded of Scooby.
For the past two days she was getting scared to enter that area.
Isn't she better than before?
You only said that kids tend to forget things soon.
She's fighting with Scooby's memories within herself.
Let's open the door for her.
Let her come out on her own.
How did you come here?
Mom, get some biscuits.
Mom!
Hey! I don't have biscuits.
I don't have biscuits, munchkin.
Look here.
Hey! Careful!
Hey!
Okay, I'll go and get it. Wait.
The fragrance of the Artemisia pallens from Madurai
Go!
Don't come inside.
Go!
-Brother! -Sir.
Let him come inside.
-Let him come inside the house. -Okay, sir.
Hey!
He wants to play with you, darling.
Hey!
I don't have biscuits.
Hey! What are you doing?
Hey! Wait!
I don't have biscuits, munchkin.
Dad, get some biscuits.
I didn't go to school for two days.
Were you looking for me?
Wait. I'll get you some biscuits.
Dad, get some biscuits.
He has not come here for biscuits.
