Mithra and Vaani were in the lawn , with Vaani trying to teach her paper origami.
In Vaani's leisure time , she experiments the folds on the papers. Vaani is an example of A doctor trying to experiment with colors and paper while balancing Physiotherapy.

To Mithra , the directions of fold went directly into her brain and exited in a swift . She gladly escaped when Mithra got a call from her friend , leaving Vaani alone in the lawn with the papers.

Akash who was busy with his client calls , sat in the couch placed in his balcony. His eyes caught Vaani engrossed with papers and wondered what is she even up to ? He couldn't ask her since the client was presenting there budget .

He had a note pad beside him , he removed a page from the pad and wrote few things on the paper ...

"Paravala ! Handwriting avaluku puriyum nu nenaikuren ... idhuku mela neat ah ennala ezhuda mudiyadhu " He sighed

He folded the paper in such a way that it formed a paper rocket. On the other hand , The helpless client was busy explaining and here Akash was busy folding paper , The Almighty had a hearty laugh from the heaven.

He aimed the paper rocket to her direction and it flew rightly with a bang on Vaani's head .

Before she could catch him, he enacted as if he is listening to the call. She turned towards the west side and east side to find none . But she saw the paper rocket , and opened the folding to see a note " Andha paper ku vaai irundha azhudhurum Loudspeaker "

Reading the note she looked up to his balcony who was responding to the call . She wrote her reply back on the paper and folded the folding back . But to her dismay , even though she is old enough... she was shy enough to admit that she is not well-versed in flying the rocket . The science behind flying the paper rocket never reached her mind .

She did not want to give up in front of Akash , who would have a reason to mock at her again. She tired flying the rocket once but it fell down next to her . She kept trying and that resulted in many unsuccessful attempts , making Akash to fall hard and laugh !

"Nalla siringa ! Comedy pannitu iruken la ? "
She cribbed , sitting in the lawn

Akash kept his index finger pointing to his ears and shook his head negatively indicating he couldn't hear her whines .

Vaani out of restlessness crushed the rocket and aimed at his balcony , for a change it rightly landed on his forehead resulting in him to screech... the meeting that went on was long forgotten by Akash . It was now time for Vaani to smile wholeheartedly at the victory of the paper landing right on his head.

Vaani took her origami and went to Akash's balcony when the thing that was placed on the right side shelf caught her attention  but Akash walked in to the room from the balcony interrupting her thought process.

Akash : Origami la enna iruku ??

Vaani : Na onnu solata ? This is a single paper illa ? She asked pointing to the paper she held.

Akash nodded his head wanting to listen to her perspective
" Verum paper nu nenacha onnume panna mudiyadhu ? But idha parunga Paper butterfly , this is also made with the Same single paper ... avalavudhan everything lies in the way we see things ! We can create things Hitler,  Life gives u a paper ... How you use it depends on us. Butterfly ah maturadha illaya nu namma kaila dhan iruku ! " Vaani finished

One thing Akash noticed was , when she speaks about something she loves from the both of her heart , her eyes shine with glitters . All this time he had encountered with people who live a life devised by others and there Vaani is standing out from the crowd ... her perspective of looking at things is an unsolved mystery in Akash's eyes.

"Maalz and Na sendhu origami pannuvom , ana chinna pilla tannama onnu pannivom "
She told with a mischievous smile

"Yenna pannuvinga ? " He was curious to know.

"Nan ennaku edhavudhu puduchadhu nadakanum nu nenachu andha origami la ezhudhi we will throw aiming at the stars.. Kind of manifestation mari ! Sometimes nadandhuruku ... adhe time nadandadhum illa. " She told with a smile as she sat on his bed.

" Interesting " He muttered and sat along looking at the paper craft.

" Namma yen innaiku andha mari ezhudi parakka vidalame ? " An idea popped in her mind while Akash shook his head and raised his hands above his shoulders indicating he is not a part of it .

But Vaani being Vaani nudged him to write and he finally gave in . They began writing while Akash pepped in to check what she wrote , she hid her rocket.

"Eppudiyum nan dhan adha paraka vida poren ! " He sighed loudly

They finished and Akash demanded that he wanted to read what she had written . She showed him her rocket and his jaw dropped when he read " Brownie ... A tub of icecream ... Biryani "

Vaani : Nammaku eppavume Soru dhan . She told shrugging her shoulders.

"Unnaya lam thirutave mudiyadhu Loudspeaker " He chuckled.

"Seri ! Na kamuchen la neenga kaminga "

"Mudiyadhu " He kept repeating like how a broke tape recorder use to play the same song .

Vaani had her ways and got held of his rocket to find " Music " written on it .

"Nan kekanum nu irundhe why music ? " She posted her question.

"I was a guitarist back during my school and college days ! " He confessed while She shooted her next question " Adhu enna was , once u learn a skill you can never forget "

Akash : After a period , you reach a stage where you have to give up your passion to take up and live up to the responsibilities laid on you .

"Seriyana lusu neenga ! Hitler enna 60 years ayrucha ? Ila la ... vayasu agum adhe mari porupu adigam agum dhan .. but not at the cost of your passion ." She rolled her eyes .

Vaani walked upto the right corner in his room . Dusted the guitar which had dust particles and walked upto Akash .

" Learn to balance Responsibilities with Passion , Hitler " She told as she handed over the guitar to him.

He realised he was sacrificing his passion in the attempt to be an idol son , businessman in the cost of  forgetting the guitarist in him.

He run his fingers on the guitar and loved how he use to spend most of his leisure time with the guitar.

" Enna mari iruka introverts ku lam art is best form of expressing ... unnoda allavuku express lam panna teriadhu Vaani " He told as he ran his fingers against the string

From Doctor - Loudspeaker to Vaani, she realised the drastic change in there equation . For the very first time Akash had called her Vaani.

" Sometimes we extroverts also love to listen ! " She told fixing her gaze with his eyes which came as a shock to Vaani herself while Akash was taken back.

He decided the play few notes , why not when he as an active listener .
He began playing the chords and began humming to the song.

"Paadite play pannungale " came her request.

"Kalloora paarrkkum paarvai ulloora paayumae
Thullaamal thullum ullam sallaabamae
Villodu ambu rendu kollaamal kolludhae
Penpaavai kangal endru poi solluthae..."

He sang with his eyes closed , while Vaani was engrossed deeply into listening to her favourite... illayaraja song !

"Mundhaanai moodum raani selvaakkilae En kaadhal kangal pogum pallaakkilae Thaenodai oramae neeraadum neramae
Pullanguzhal thallaadumae pon meni kelaai raani....."  Akash opened his eyes to see how Vaani was humming to the song .

"Raaja raaja chozhan naan
Enai aazhum kaadhal dhesam nee thaan " Both sang these lines with there rhythm entwining little did they know there hearts were entwined long back.

Good / Bad edhuva irundhalum sollunga???

Okay I am a person who loves Paper origami ! This portion of the chapter is from my personal experience. My perspective of origami is what I have shared .

Update delay annadhuku karnam " Sita Ramam" I literally went crying for hours wondering why destiny had to drift these two . I had been overthinking on why Ram was taken away . The story will always remain close to my heart. I ended up squeezing my little brain wondering if we will ever encounter a person like Ram or Sita .... if we do I hope we hold on to them 😭🥺
