Trick question

My parents are laying down rules and are getting pretty strict. So I have many techniques to tackle them.
This is one of  them :) Let me explain it with couple of examples

pAdukA - ammA naan hair color pannikalaamaa? (Can I color my hair?)
ammA - no
pAdukA - yaaravadhu color pannuvalA thalaila. colors laam paper la dhaan (does anyone color their head? color is for paper only)
pAdukA (a little later) - ammA, mehendi pottukattumA? (Can I put mehendi on?)
ammA - apparam pottu vidaren pattu (I will do it  later dear)
pAdukA - mehindi color dhaane ma? (mehindi is also color right?)
ammA - amaam (yes)
pAdukA - appo inda color mattum potukalaamA? (so, this color is ok to put on?)
              - color pottuka kudaadhu nnu sonna (you said I should color myself?)
ammA - (thinking) - I have to get sharper before she is a teenager !

ammA - pAdukA ippo sonna pecha ketta dhaan cheese tharuven (I will give you cheese only when you follow my instruction)
pAdukA - (finishing her milk after 20 mins) - done. cheese thaa (give me cheese)
ammA - No, nee naan sonnadhai immediate-a ketkalai (you did not do as I said immediately)
pAdukA -pAdukA kupudu (call "pAdukA" now)
ammA - yen (why)
pAdukA - kupudu please (call please)
ammA calls pAdukA and she comes closer to her by a step
pAdukA - nee kupta odane naan vanden (I came as soon as you called)
pAdukA - cheese kudu ippo (give me cheese now)
ammA - huh?
