Would you like to play Hide & Seek with Jillu ? I will definitely guarantee a unique, fun filled and hilarious experience. But only if you play by her rules :)
Stage I :
You ask her to go and hide somewhere. She runs away and the moment you start saying "Jillu yenga kaanum" (Where is Jillu?), there she will come whooshing back to you in lightning speed and look at you so ecstatically and expectantly that you end up saying "Dho irukkaale" (Here she is!)
Stage II:
You tell her that you shouldn't come out of the hiding place and that she should be hiding till we come and find her. Then, you make someone else hide her. Then she is wise enough to say, "Kanna moodu" (Close your eyes). And if you just close your eyes, she says "Kaiyaala kanna moodu" (Cover your eyes with hands) and will point to a wall, so you got to cover your face with your hands against the wall and close your eyes while she hides. And then when you start searching for her, 5 seconds into the search, she will again be in front of you in a flash :). But mind you, you have got to say, "Dho irukaa daa"
Stage III:
The next stage is she will point to the place where she hid the last time and will tell you in all earnest "Ippo nee inga ozhinjukko nae. okvaa" (Now, you please hide here. Ok?) . And this will play in a loop
And the last one:
This is the latest. We both are on the bed playing, and she simply jumps up saying "naa inga ozhijukkaren" ( I am going to hide here) and goes behind the curtains right in front of my eyes without even asking me to close my eyes :)
