Adam Joan (ആദം Joan)

Mother dear, O pray for me.

Whilst far from Heaven and Thee

I wander in a fragile bark.

O'er life's tempestuous sea.

O Virgin Mother.

From Thy throne,

So bright in bliss above.

Protect Thy child.

And cheer my path.

With Thy sweet smile of love.

Mother dear, remember me.

And never cease Thy care.

Till in Heaven eternally.

Thy love and bliss I share.

Mother dear, remember me.

And never cease Thy care.

Till in Heaven eternally.

Thy love and bliss I share.

And don't expect a grand function like last time.

Tomorrow she will turn 7 years old.

I told Unni, that we need not have these celebrations from this year onwards.

But he won't listen!

What will she feel?

After celebrating it grandly all these years,

when there is a sudden stop;

That's also true.

Kids, right? They would feel bad.

What's the plan today?

Are you going home straight or any other trips?

No. We just have to go to Garden Centre.

Some shopping-

We haven't bought anything for tomorrow. - Carry on then.

See you tomorrow. - Okay.

Ya. We're leaving.

Sorry Daisy.

What is this, Cyriac?

Still hung over from last night?

Oh! You came and bumped into me and the blame is on me?

Okay.

What is it, Unni? Aren't you going home?

We are waiting for Ila and mom.

Where did they go?

Grand-mom's & granddaughter's prayers are not over yet.

Aren't you ashamed, Cyriac?

To ask this in front of the Church during lent?

Because of lent, tomorrow's function would be strictly vegetarian & non-alcoholic.

That's awesome!

So, I won't be there tomorrow I have better things to do!

Don't be upset, Cyriac.

We'll figure out a way.

What way?

Unni.

I agreed to host tomorrow's function because you promised me all these.

Don't forget that.

Rest you can tell her.

What is this, Aunty?

Looks like you were giving Christ a tough time with your prayers.

I am getting older, son.

So I'll be thinking about God all the more.

Hello birthday girl!

As usual, your song was amazing!

Thank you uncle!

Even I felt devotional.

Shall we leave then?

We have a lot of things to do. - Shopping?

Ya. We haven't bought anything for tomorrow

Okay.

Get in.

There's an offer on liquor at Sainsbury's now.

Mom,

haven't you prepared a list of the things to buy?

I can't roam around too much over there.

That's all ready!

You just look straight and drive!

If not anything else, hasn't it been around 12 years,

since I've started coming for shopping with you in this country?

It's from France.

Hello! Who is this?

Your dad lnjasshery Pothan's elder offspring!

Brother! Is that you?

Where are you calling from? France?

Didn't you understand that seeing the number, you fool?

Yes. I did.

When did you reach there?

It's been two days.

Didn't I tell you,

about an international meet of strawberry growers?

I came for that.

Where is mom?

I am here, dear.

Mom, I've been trying to call him for so long!

It was switched off.

Bro, we were at the Church.

Since you don't believe in God or the Church,

you wouldn't have remembered that today is a Sunday and that we have to go to Church,

rig ht?

Or is it because you're still hung over from last night?

Actually both, mom!

So ya. I'll stop wasting time and tell you why I called.

Ya. Say it.

My job here is over.

So, I'm thinking if I should come there as well, on the way back.

What say?

It's been long since I saw you all.

Good that my son felt so at least now.

Praise the Lord!

So I'll call in the evening after booking the tickets.

Unni.

Okay, bro.

Okay.

Grandma, shouldn't we buy coal for the barbecue?

That's rig ht!

That's over there. Come!

This offer looks quite good. - Hello!

Well, I was just..

Shall we go?

Thank you.

Grandma, I want to go to the wash room.

Hey!

She wants to go to the wash room.

I'll take her.

Should I come, mom? - No. You carry on.

Come, dear.

What happened to your brother?

To suddenly have a desire to see everyone?

Well, he has come so close, right?

So he would have thought he'll see everyone and leave.

If that's the case, fine.

What else can it be?

Well,

He wouldn't have forgotten what happened and what he said long back, right?

As far as I know, he doesn't have Alzheimer's.

And my brother always stands by his word.

And he has proved that through all these years.

Unni!

Leave her!

Mom!

My child!

Ila!

Mom!

Mom!

Ya. Good morning.

Mr. Cyriac, what time is the cremation?

We are still waiting for her elder son.

Is that him?

Ya. That's him.

Adam.

Ichaya, (brother)

lchaya,

Unni, I'll sleep in the living room.

That will be comfortable for me.

The heater in that room is not working properly.

And, later in the night;

It will be much colder than this, lchaya.

This is Mom's & lla's room.

Ila used to sing really well.

She was really active,

in the Church Choir.

Actually,

what was it that happened here?

To do something like this,

who has so much grudge against us?

I don't know, lchaya.

As far as I know, there's no one like that.

Apart from some petty issues that have happened in the office;

Me and Shwetha have never had any such clashes with anyone here.

In.

I have a slight headache.

Shall I go to sleep?

Good night.

Why isn't this getting over?

It's taking so long!

This is why I don't come for Christian weddings.

They will keep us waiting to be bored to death.

But our weddings are so much better!

Just go there, tie the wedding chain,

wear the garlands, get the girl and run three rounds.

Finished!

But it gets over there, rig ht?

After that, it's all vegetarian, right?

Kalan, Olan, Avial & Sam bar.

But is it like that here?

We will have a feast today!

This wait becomes meaningful only when we think about that.

Oh! All of you are here?

You came alone?

Didn't your husbands & kids come?

Well Pothan, don't you want any of that?

In our batch, you are the only one left to get married!

Where does he have time for all that?

He's making an Eden Garden at the High Range, right?

New Generation Adam.

Yes.

Only after his garden is fully ready, he will get married.

But you should see his younger brother Unni.

Before he turned 22,

he got married to a classmate of his,

and is now settled in Europe.

But our man is still walking around getting leech bites in that plantation.

Your world is between Fort Kochi & Oberon Mall, right?
