Sivaangi was so excited as she was going to be an intern of AK photographs for next twenty days.It was her friend Priya who suggested AK photography as they were giving a chance for many talents.

She climbed down as she grabbed her cling bag.
'Poitu varen ma...',Sivaangi rushed out taking her scooter.Her mobile started ringing and she found that was none other than her friend Priya.
'Sollu di...',Sivaangi answered.

'Ena Sivu kelambitiya?',Priya asked.
'Haan kelambiten di..Heyy nalla visaarchitella di? Trustable source dhana?',Sivaangi asked, because she have stepped in many channels but they kept ignoring her as she has no experience.So that's why Sivaangi is here,to gain some experience and a certificate which proves that she was experienced.

'Heyy nalla visaarchiten di..Nee bayapadama po..', Priya assured.
'Serii..Nee sonna edathula dhan nikkiren ippo inga irundhu yepdi ponum?', Sivaangi asked.
'Kovil kittaya?',
'Aama'
'Seri straight ah poi right edu', Priya instructed her and Sivaangi followed.

A sudden noise disturbed Sivaangi from hearing Priya.She noticed there was some function happening in the temple and the sound was from loudspeakers.
'Right eduthuten aprom?', Sivaangi yelled but neither of them could hear eachother.

'Hello?Hello?..',Sivaangi was concentrating on the phone but failed to notice the car which was taking the same turn she took.She crashed on the car door and fell down.
'Ammaa...',she shouted and hissed in pain when she noticed some scratches on her hands.

'Sorry..',she heard a deep and hoarse voice and looked up.There was a tall man, approximately 5'11 was standing infront of her.
She was so tiny comparing to him,her doe eyes which was concentrating on the scratches,her pink lips which was pouted,few of her hair strands was fallen on her face looked beautiful in his eyes.Her bright multi coloured t-shirt and blue jeans made her more cute.

He gave his hand and she quickly grabbed it, balancing herself to stand.
What he expected was a thanks but what she did was least expected.Her eyes were soft until her eyes fell on her broken airpods.It was a brand new one and she searched the rare dark purple colour after a long time and got this.

'Yovv... arivu irukaa?', Sivaangi yelled making him frown.
'Unnathaan..Road la munna pinna paathu ota maatiya?Kanna enga vechutu otra?',she yelled at his face.

Both were at their mistake and they knew that but when he was ready to accept,her words triggered him.

'Hello Miss,phone pesite drive pannadhu naan illa neenga dhan..Gavanam road mela irukanum, phone la irundhaa..',he rolled his eyes.

'Hello enna naan phone pesitu vandhenu pazhiya en mela podra?Adhaan aal varaanganu theriyudhu la,naan turn panna aprom pannirundha dhan ennavam?',she asked.
'Same goes to you, munnadi car varadhu kooda theriyaama neenga yen turn panreenga?',he asked.

'Purinju pochu da un plan uh..Venumne vandhu iduchutu idho ippo un door damage aayiduchu nu enta kaasu vaanga dhana plan panniruka nee?', Sivaangi asked.
'Hey mind your words...',he snapped his fingers at her.

'Yov apdi dha ya pesuven..Ippo paaru unnaala dhan enaku adi patruku..Cha..',Sivaangi hissed in pain.
'Andha oru reason kaga dhan porumaiya pesitu iruken..And naan sorry kooda ketuten you are the one still arguing..',he said.
'Yaaruku ya venum un sorry..Panradhellam pantu sorry yaam..En airpod vera pochu unnaala..Vandhu olunga en scooter ah eduthu kudu',Sivaangi yelled pointing her fallen down scooter making him sigh.

'Help panlamnu vandhadhu en thappu..',he shook his head in disbelief before moving inside the car while she kept yelling at him.
'Yovv...Help pannu ya...',she yelled but the car disappeared from her sight.
'Chii..Sidumoonji',she sighed.

She sighed how her day started,
'Iniku naalu romba amogama start aagiruku pa..Ipdi oru sidumoonji mogathula mulichutu poren.. Internship kedacha maari dhan', Sivaangi rolled her eyes and took her scooter before grabbing her scattered things.

'Reach aayiten di..',Sivaangi informed Priya.
'Seri ulla poi formalities lam paaru..All the best di',Priya declined the call.
Sivaangi looked at the studio infront of her and heaved a sigh.

She entered in and saw a guy who was checking something on his camera.
'Bro..',she called.
'Sollunga..',he answered.
'Haann.. brother naa Internship kaga vandhuruken,Online la apply pannirundhe iniku vara sonnanga..',she informed.

'Ohh apdiyaa..seri irunga..Hey Ash..pudhu intern!!',the guy informed.
'Varen Vimal..',Ash came out and both of their eyes widened looking at eachother.

'Ayyaoo ivana?',she gulped when he was looking at her with no expression.
'Hey pudhu intern Ash..Nee paaru naan poi ipo edutha photos ah edit panren..', Vimal moved when Ash smirked at Sivaangi before nodding.

'Kadavule...un pullaiya koodave irundhu kaapathu pa..',Sivaangi gulped.
'Come in..', Ash left inside his office,which was a small room that allocated in the same studio.

'L.Ashwin Kumar,MBA',she mumbled looking at the name board and moved to his face.He was damn handsome,his noticed his hazel brown eyes,sharp nose and perfect jawline and how his hand was adjusting his hair for each minute.He was wearing a blue denim shirt and white pants, his first two shirt buttons were opened and his mole on the chest was well visible which made her gulp.She quickly averted her gaze when she heard a throat clearing sound.

'Miss?',he raised his eyebrows as he sat down before his laptop.
'Sivaangi..',she in a low voice.
'Huh? Kekala?',he asked.
'Sivaangi...',she stressed and he nodded.

'Hmmm..Good.. Your photography skill was nice but enaku oru question iruku..', Ash stood up from his seat and moved closer to her.
'Aathi..Enna keka poraanu therilaye..',she thought.
'Why do you chose photography?',he asked.

'Yenna enaku pudikum..',Sivaangi answered without thinking even once.
'Any reason behind?',he asked.
'Reason ey adhaan,pudikum adhunaala I choose photography',Sivaangi replied and he nodded.Even though he liked her simple answer,he didn't show it out.

'Hmmm..Naalaila irundhu join pannikonga Miss.Sivaangi..Regular ah varanum,thevai illama leave eduka koodadhu,late ah vara koodadhu and mukkiyama focused ah irukanum..Puriyudha?',he asked.

'Puriyudhu..',she nodded.
'And sorry..Iniku naan ungala apdi kathiruka koodadhu..Mistake was in both sides..En melayum thappu..',Sivaangi declared while Ashwin smirked.
'Fine',he replied.
'Avlodhana?',she asked.
'Vera enna?',he asked and she nodded nothing.

'Nothing Ashwin',she said.
'Ash!',he corrected.
'Huh?Unga peru Ashwin dhana?',she asked.
'I don't like anyone calling me Ashwin except my closed ones..Just call me Ash..',he said straightly.
'Aprom edhuku name board la ezhudhi potruku,kaailankadaila poda vendiyadhu dhana..',she murmured under her breath.

'Did you say something?',he asked.
'Nothing Ash..',she rolled her eyes.
'Sidumoonji..',she muttered in a low voice before leaving.

'Late uh!Late uh !Late uh!First naale late uh.. Aiyoo andha sidumoonji vera asingama kepaane..', Sivaangi cursed under her breath before parking her scooter.

'Yen ma first naale late ah?',Vimal asked her.
'Late aayiduchu na',she said.
'Paathu..Po ulla dhan irukaan..',the guy informed pointing the editing room and continued to focus on the client.

He was focusing on the screen while the editor was adding lights and filters.His eyes were keenly noticing the screenwhile Sivaangi stood beside him silently, twisting her bag's strap.The editor left the room and Ashwin sighed at the empty screen.
'Yen late?',Ashwin asked without looking at her.
'Ahh..bha.. Adhu...Veetla konjam late aayiduchu.. ', Sivaangi said and he turned his face towards her.

'Thoongitiya?', he asked and she nodded a yes with a slight smile and quickly nodded a no realising what was she doing.
'Hmmm..rathiri 2 maniku aduthavanga Instagram profile ah stalk panna ma thoongura velaiya paathurundha late aayirukaadhu...', Ashwin said with no expression, standing up from the chair making her eyes go wide.

'Ivaruku yepdi theriyum?',she thought before saying,'Huh.. Naan yaaru profile ah poi stalk panna poren...'.
'Hmm... Sivaangi Krish nee dhana?',he asked and she replied shrugging,'Aama'
'Appo Jan 15,2019 aniku naan pota post ah April 06,2022 aniku like pannadhu nee dha!', Ashwin explained while she sighed in embarrassment.

She was the one who stalked his profile last night and that's when it clicked to her that she has accidentally liked his post while scrolling down.
'Adhu..',she scratched her temple while he packed his bag.
'Naalaila irundhu late ah varaadha',Ashwin moved before she could explain making her sigh.

'Sheii enna aalu ivaru..',she rolled his eyes.
She went near him and saw Ashwin wearing a yellow tee and blue jeans.His messy hair and few of his hair strands were lying on his forehead.He was looking hot or more than the word she could explain.Ashwin's eyes were focused on fixing the camera's lens,and he was biting his lips which increased the temperature a little.

Can stop staring at the most handsome figure standing infront of?
Her gaze moved to his Adam's apple and she found a mole on his neck too.
'Sivuu...Avana sight adikaadha dii..', she averted her gaze.But he was so magnetic that pulling her eyes towards him.
'Sight dhana adikiro.. Idhellam manushangaloda freedom uh..',she shrugged her thoughts when he moved towards her.

'Sivaangi..Its your turn..Just focus and do it, Come on try', Ashwin gave the camera to her and explained about the angles while Sivaangi listened him keenly.
'Do it',Ashwin moved to the lights and adjusted it.

Sivaangi captured the pictures and the client was really happy with it.
'Ash,super ah vandhrukulla..',Vimal said and Ashwin nodded.
'Super da.. Nalla panniruka..',Vimal appreciated and she thanked him.

'Good!', that was the only word Ashwin spoke.
'Adha konjam sirichute sonna dha enavaam.. Sidumoonji',she sighed.
'Idhu ulla system la copy pannu and Sivaangi that's it for you today..Naaliku late pannama vaanga,I won't excuse you next time',Ashwin said.
'Okay Ash',she nodded and he left.

A week passed,Ashwin never spoke to her except professional but his attitude confused her.He was rude to her,she never saw him smiling.All the members in the studio was friendly going except Ashwin.She noticed none of them was calling by his name but everyone was calling him Ash.Even one person wasn't close with him?

Ashwin entered the studio and found Sivaangi how changed the studio into a lively one.For Ashwin everything should be professional,his surroundings and his Colleagues too but when Sivaangi came,the surroundings has changed completely.He heard laughing sound from the editing room and he peeped in.

'Anney anney..Naan oru joke sollatuma?',she asked.
'Sollu ma..',Vimal said while she was silently looking at them.
'Sollu...',the another guy said.
'Adhaan..Silent comedy...',she finished and started laughing which made her brothers laugh too.
Ashwin frowned as he couldn't understand the joke but what he understood is, Sivaangi was such a smile machine.

'Joke lam mudinchaa?',Ashwin entered and everyone became silent.
'Editing ku pictures kuduthene mudichutiya?',Ashwin asked.
'Mudichuten Ash..',she replied.
'Hmm..',he nodded and was about to move but stopped hearing her.
'Ash..',she called him and he raised his eyebrows with a hum.

'Hmm...1 week ah edit dhana pannitu iruken..Enaku photos edukanum..',Sivaangi said.
'Serii...',he nodded.
'Illa...Studio kulla illa..Veliya engeyavadhu try pannatuma? Edhavadhu different aana place la',Sivaangi asked while silence prevailed for few seconds.

'Come..Vimal client vandha paathuko',Ashwin moved grabbing his car keys while Sivaangi followed him.

'Ingeya?Yen idhaan romba different aana edama?',Sivaangi asked as her eyes travelled around the beach.
'Yen?Inga enna?',Ashwin asked.
'Suthi kootam,kuppai,satham..Nallava iruku?And what is different about beach?',she asked and he nodded a no.

'Photography ku vision romba mukkiyam Sivaangi..Nee suthi un kannuku theriyura vishayatha mattum dhan solra..Aana unaku theriyaadha vishayangal ulla neraya iruku..Unaku oru 1hr time tharen..Suthi paathutu va,Unaku ennalam thonudho, yedhellam pudichuruko adhayellam photo eduthutu vaa..', Ashwin said.
Sivaangi nodded as this was the largest sentence that Ashwin has ever spoke to her.

'En moonjila edhavadhu ezhudhi otteeruka?',he asked and she quickly nodded a no.
'Appo en moonjiya paathutu irukaama kelambu..',Ashwin said and she moved from there muttering 'Sidumoonji' under her breath.

Her eyes fell on some kids who were happily building a sand castle.No worries on their faces and the smile on their faces were priceless.Sivaangi captured them as she began to walk.

Sivaangi's eyes caught a little boy crying whose icecream has fallen down and his father quickly lifted him and made him sit on his shoulder.He started swirling around and the boy started laughing forgetting about the icecream.She remembered her long passed father and smiled as her memories flashed.She captured them in the camera before walking away from there.

A group of friends caught Sivaangi's attention,they were all laughing, pulling eachother's legs and playing on the waves.She captured them and her eyes noticed many many now.She has arrived to beach many times but never witnessed so many emotions.She even found shells,crabs,an old man and a horse, boys selling roasted groundnuts and chickpeas, people starving for the hot bajjis and never forget to capture it.

She looked a couple,may be newly married.The woman who was selling flowers gave them the flowers instructing him to place it on his wife's braided hair and husband was placing the flower on his wife's plait.She noticed the blush on their faces and she felt it cute.She captured even that and slowly continued her walking.

Atlast she found a girl proposing a guy on her knees while the guy accepted the proposal.She beautifully captured the moment and moved from there awkwardly when they started kissing eachother.
She smiled and looked at Ashwin,who was capturing something towards the sea.

This guy was something different.She understood he was not such a guy who everyone think of.May be he was the most interesting book which everyone failed to read,may be he was the flower which has the most beautiful fragrance which everyone failed to feel,may be he was the bird who has the most beautiful voice which everyone failed to hear..

Her mind told her something and without wasting seconds Sivaangi started capturing him on her camera.He looked perfect in each and every angle she took.Sivaangi moved towards him and stood beside him.

'Yevlo neram indha waves ahye eduthutu irupeenga?',Sivaangi asked.
'Un kannuku waves mattum dha theriyudha?',he asked.
'Apdi illa..Romba nerama ingeye ninnu eduthutu irukeengale... adhaan keten',Sivaangi said and Ashwin showed the pictures he took while she leaned to check on the picture.

It was the time to sunset.Both the Sun and Moon was present on the sky.The sky looked not exactly blue but a slight orange shade mixed with it.The clouds were scattered here and there.
Without her knowledge her mouth escaped a wow.
'Yedhayum velila irundhu paathu decide panna koodadhu..',Ashwin said.

'Purinjukiten',Sivaangi said making him frown.
'Huh?',he raised his eyebrows.
'Nothing..',she shrugged and looked at him.
'Thanks..',she said and he frowned.
'Illa.. I have came to beach many times but idhellam note pannadhilla..Thanks for making me notice the many unnoticed things',she said while Ashwin averted his gaze from her intense eyes.He found still she was standing close to him,her arm was brushing her's.He slightly moved from her clearing his throat.
'Kudu..Let me check what have you taken..',Ashwin took the camera from her hands.

He looked at all the pictures and each picture told each emotions.He frowned first when he found his pictures while Sivaangi was eagerly waiting for his reaction.His lips curved a little which showed the dimple on his bearded cheek.
'Ippo siricheenga dhana?',she asked.
'Illaye..',he said bringing back his face to his usual one.

'Naan paathen neenga siricheenga..',Sivaangi said.
'Enna yen eduthu vechuruka?',he asked.
'Neenga dhana sonneenga.. Unaku ennalam thonudho, yedhellam pudichuruko,adhellam capture pannunu..Adhaan',she confessed boldly making him chuckle a little.

'Paahh..Sirikalam theriyuma ungaluku?',Sivaangi asked.
'Hmm... Nalla iruku',Ashwin moved from there while she grinned from ear to ear.
'Neenga kooda siricha nallairuku..Konjam siringa appo appo!',Sivaangi shouted while he smiled more widely without turning back.

'Ash..Indha lighting okay ah?',Sivaangi asked.
'Illa...Konjam contrast kammi pannu..',Ashwin instructed standing behind her.
'Podhuma?',she asked as she reduced the percentage of contrast.
'May be konjam brightness increase panna nallairukum..',Ashwin said making her sigh.

'Yevlo changes solla poreenga innum?',she asked rolling her eyes.
'Inga nee enaku intern ah illa naan unaku intern ah?',Ashwin asked which made her to continue without speaking anything.
'Sidumoonji'

'Pch..Innum konjam sharpness decrease panlam..',Ashwin leaned forward on her back and held her hand which was holding the mouse to reduce the percentage.
Sivaangi's breath hitched when his masculine cologne reached her nostrils.His face was dangerously close to her's which made her tummy a flip.Her heartbeat raised its peak which caught Ashwin's attention.He turned his face at her who was already facing him.They could feel eachother's breath and that's how much their faces were closer.

'Ahh..Idhu okay dhan..save panniru..',Ashwin turned his face aside from her face.
'Indha manushan ta irundhu enna yaarachum save pannungalen..',she thought gulping.Ashwin slowly moved back and that's when she realised she was holding her breath for so long.

'Heyy..Ash mela geedhu kai vechana enna?Avan kovakaaran dhan aana kai lam neeta maatane..Adichaana?',Vimal asked sitting near her.
'Adhellam illa ney,yen?',she asked.
'Illa ma..Kannamlam ipdi sevandhu poiruke..', Vimal said and she touched her cheeks to feel the blush.

'Ahmm..Adhellam onnum illa ney..',she smiled biting her cheeks inwardly to hide her blush.
'Seri seri.. Continue pannu..',Vimal moved while she slapped her forehead blushing and smiling.

Ashwin entered the studio and found something was unusual.There was no laughing sound,there was no sounds of chatting.He looked around and found no Sivaangi there.
'Vimal...',he called Vimal who was focusing on the edit.
'Sollu Ash',he replied.

'Umm..Ava varlaya?',Ashwin asked rubbing his beard.
'Eva?',Vimal asked.
'Adhaan...Sivaangi..',he said and Vimal smiled teasingly.
'Ungaluku yedhuku andha information uh?',Vimal asked making Ashwin sigh.

'Seri seri..Po ulla dhaan iruka..',Vimal said and Ashwin entered the studio where Sivaangi was setting the lights.She looked preoccupied in her thoughts.
'Sivaangi..',he called her.
'Sollunga Ash',she moved to him.
'Inga enna panitu iruka? Editing lam mudincha?',he asked.

'Mudikkanum..',she said.
'Appo poi mudi..',he said making her huff.
'Konja neram kalichu poren..',she said settling herself on the chair there.
He didn't know what was bothering her but he found that wasn't the usual chirpy Sivaangi.

'Ennaachu?',he asked.
'Ennaachu nu sonnaa seri panniruveengala?',she asked annoyingly.
'Solradha irundha sollu..Illati enaku onnum prechanai illa..',he was about to move but stopped.
'En amma dha prechanai..',she said and he settled beside her.

'Amma ku naan photography photography nu suthuradhu pudikala..Avangaluku onnu naa nalla velaiku poi sambaarikanum,illana nalla sambaarikira paiyana kalyanam pannikanum..Aana enaku rendume venaam',she said as her throat went dry while Ashwin keenly listened to her.

'Appo enna venum?',he asked.
'Idhudhan venum..',she said looking into his eyes while he frowned.
'I mean, photography! Enaku pudichadhu..Indha internship mudichutu oru nalla periya channel la paathu settle aayidanum..Appodhan nimmadhi enaku..',she moved and that's when something hit him hard.

She won't be there in few days? But why its bothering him?She was just an other intern and he knew she'll stay just for 20 days.He just shrugged his thoughts and moved towards her.

'Sivaangi..Enkooda variya?',he asked making her frown in confusion.
'Coimbatore,naaliku..Oru marriage order vandhuruku.. It'll be useful for you..Unakum innum one week dhana iruku?', Ashwin asked making her stood froze.

'Umm..Vimal anna lam varaangala?',she asked.
'Appo yaaru studio va paathukuradhu?',Ashwin asked.
'Namma mattum dhan porom..Yosichu sollu..',he walked away from her.
'Varen!',she yelled running behind him.

'Unga car laya?',she asked.
'Aprom edhula?',he asked frowning.
'Illa..Night neram..Naan vera oru azhagana ponnu..Yepdi thaniya oru paiyan kooda??',she asked while he still staring at her.
'Andha aasa veraya unaku..Enaku vera velai illa paaru..',he sighed before getting inside the car.
'Sidumoonji'

She settled on the passenger seat as he took the driver seat.
'Polaam Ash..',she said while he glared her.
'Yen ipdi paakuraaru..',she looked around.
'Seatbelt!',he said while she sighed.
'Ippo enna race ah ota poreenga? Seatbelt lam podanuma?Adhuvum naanlam rowdy theriyum la, Seatbelt podra pazhakam la kedaiyadhu engaluku',she said lifting her imaginary collars and he shrugged.
'Appo I'm not responsible for the consequences',he started the car and in few minutes she regretted for not wearing the seatbelt.

'Rendu dhadava sollirundha naane potrupen..Adhukaga ipdiya..',she sighed wearing the seatbelt making him chuckle.
'Ennaachu rowdy madam?',he asked and she glared him.
'Oru rowdy kittaye modhureengala?Ungala vida maaten..En muscles ah vechu ungala gaali panniduven..',she said.

'Muscle ah?Inga kaatu..',he said while she showed her tiny biceps which made him laugh loudly.
'Enna nga sirikireenga?',she asked pouting while he was still laughing.
Somewhere in her heart felt happy to see him laughing his heart out.

'Indha kutty muscles ah vechutu enna gaali panna poriya?',he asked.
'Hmm..Dont underestimate the power of a rowdy Mr.Ash!',Sivaangi snapped at him.
'Hmmm..',Ashwin chuckled as he continued to drive.

Ashwin was exhausted as he was driving for the past six hours.He stopped the car at a tea stall and his eyes fell on Sivaangi who was sleeping,as wrapping her shawl around her to prevent herself from chillness.His lips curved looking how cute she was sleeping.
'Sivaangii.. Sivaangi..',he called her but no response.
'Sivaangi..Wake up..',he hesitantly patted her shoulder while she quickly grabbed his warm and big hand,used it hold her cheek which was pressing against the cushion.

'Po ma..Konjam neram thoonguren..',she said while he was speechless.
Ashwin slowly removed his hand from her hold which made her open her eyes quickly.
'Haiyoo sorry naa..Thookathula..',she adjusting her hair and he nodded.
'Tea sapdriya?',he asked and she nodded an okay.They both stepped out from the car and Sivaangi bought a water packet.

She washed her face while Ashwin was doing the same on the other side.
'Oru nalla strong aana tea podunga na..Adhula inji,elakkai lam thatti nalla thookala potu apdiye gama gama suda suda nu eduthutu vaanga..',Sivaangi said while Ashwin frowned at her.
'Enna?',she asked raising her eyebrows and he just nodded a no.

'Ungaluku sollunga..',she said.
'Oru tea...',Ashwin just said plainly and now its her turn to frown.
'Avlodhana?',she asked and he shrugged.
'Kashtam kashtam romba kashtam..', Sivaangi sighed as soon their tea received.

'Ada sheii enna aalu neenga?',Sivaangi asked and he looked at her plainly.
'Ipdiya tea kudipaanga?',she asked.
'Vera yepdi?',he asked simply sipping the tea.

'Ipdilam kudikka koodadhu...Wait let me show you..',Sivaangi said bringing the tea close to her,and her closed her eyes.She slowly inhaled the aromna of the tea and her lips escaped a moan.

'First,namma kudikiradhuku munnadi andha tea ah feel pannanum..Pannunga..',Sivaangi said.
'Enna?',he asked.
'Ada smell pannunga..',she said while he did which brought an immediate refreshment.The strong aroma of the tea made his eyes close automatically and a moan escaped his lips too while it curved a little.All his tiredness flew away in the air.

'Ahhn..Ipoo apdiye ipdi oru suthu,apdi oru suthu...',Sivaangi swirled the tea a little left and right while Ashwin followed her.
'Ippo apdiye konjam konjama kudinga...Porumaiya kudinga..',Sivaangi started sipping her tea and Ashwin chuckled.
'Oru tea la ivlo vishayam irukaa?', Ashwin asked.

'Neenga dhana sonneenga..Oru vishayathula eppavume namma kannuku theriyuradha thaandi neraya vishayangal iruku nu..Adhu photography ku mattum illa,life kum porundhum..',Sivaangi said and Ashwin smiled at her.
'Hmm..Paravalla ipolam adikadi sirikireenga..', Sivaangi said and they both moved after returning the glass.

Sivaangi was tired of the uncomfortable gazes around her.
'Hey anga paaru..Ponnu photographer',some voices sounded in astonishment,some was in mock.
'Ithana aambalaingaluku munnadi,yepdi sattaiyum pant um potutu vandhu nikkiraa paaren..',Sivaangi heard a woman speaking and sighed in disgust.She wanted to give back something to that filthy thoughts of woman but controlled herself as if her behaviour may tarnish Ash's reputation.

'Evlo periya photographers lam irukaanga,adha vittutu indha chinna pasangala poi kooptrukaanga..Kooda oru ponnu vera..Yedhuku indha ponnuku ivlo kashtam, padichu mudichoma,kalyanatha pannoma illa edhavadhu thagudhi ku etha velaiku ponoma nu ilama..Ipdilam vandhu kashtapadanuma..Enna solradhu indha kaalathu pullaingala..Pasanga panra velaiya ellam thaanum pannuvenu vandhu nikkidhunga',another old man sighed.

Sivaangi sighed in disbelief at such a type of people's existence which didn't miss Ashwin's ears.He noticed each and everything.

'All set Sivaangi?',he asked adjusting the lights.
'Pakka Ash!',she replied.
'Seri po,Poi photos edukka start pannu,Ill operate the drone and will check the lights',Ashwin said.
'Illa Ash,neenga edunga..Naan drone and lights ah paathukuren',Sivaangi said receiving a glare from him.

'Nee intern ah naan intern ah Sivaangi?Do what I say..',Ashwin said while she stood still hesitating.
'Photos edukka start pannunu sonnen Sivaangi',he sounded stern.
'Adhu illa Ash..',she stopped when Ashwin started to operate the drone without paying attention to her words.

She sighed ignoring the gazes around and started her job.
'Enna Ash idhu?',a guy in his early thirties approached Ashwin.
'Enna?',Ashwin asked.
'Unna nambidhana book panne? Experienced aana aalunga yaarume unkitta illaya?Indha chinna ponnu dhan kedachala unaku?',the guy asked making him sigh.

'Ava ennoda intern dhan,I know what she is capable of, adhaan kootitu vandhe',Ashwin said.
'Adhukaga..Oru ponnu?Ithana peru munnadi,Avaluku dha uncomfortable ah irukaadha?Illa mathavangaluku irukaadha?And enaku ava mela nambikkai ye illa.. Oru ponnu epdi photographer..',the guy sighed.
'Hmm..ava ponnu ngradhu dhan unga prechanai na maara vendiyadhu avanga illa sir namma dhan!Innum evlo naaliku sir..Evlo naaliku dha ponnungala mattam thattuveenga?

Avangaluku edhu varum,varaadhunu decide panradhuku namaku yaaru rights kudutha?

Come on sir,we are in the 21st century and still women are being judged for their behaviour,work and dress..Passion,love, sirippu,azhuga, kovam,desire idhellam pasanga ponnu nu paatha varum?Its all basic and equal for everyone sir.

Ponnu na adha panna koodadhu,idha panna koodadhu,ipdi dress panna koodadhu apdi dress panna koodadhu,apdi pesa koodadhu,apdi sirikka koodadhu,indha velai dhan ponnunga seiyanum,indha velai lam seiya koodadhu nu decide panradhuku namma yaaru sir?

Paarvaiya maathunga sir,Avangalum normal aana manushanga dhan, avangalukum aasa,kanavu ellame irukum la..Ipdi judge panni,avangala keela thalli,Yen?Avanga enna pannanum, ennava irukanumnu neenga decide pannadheenga,Avangaluku theriyum!Avangaluku enna venumnu..',Ashwin confessed while the guy hang his head down.

'And Sivaangi.. She'll reach more heights!Romba talented and dedicated.. Photos varumbodhu paarunga..',Ashwin moved from there and Sivaangi's respect on him grew more.
Sivaangi's ears didn even miss a single word of Ashwin.The way he believed her,No one have believed the way he did.She wiped the lone tear escaped her eyes and continued what was she doing.

'Sapdlaya Ash?',she asked Ashwin who was leaning on the car door and checking the photos infront of a roadside shop,he quickly looked at her.He has no one for the past few years to ask this question.Sivaangi looked at the yearning in his eyes but also noticed how he quickly covered his emotions.

'Pasikala ma..',he said and she smiled at the way he addressed her.
'Adhepdi pasikama pogum...', without waiting for Ashwin's words she moved to the roadside shop and bought two plates of Dosa.

'Pudinga!Pudinga...',she said forcibly fitting the plate into his hands and he smiled.They both ate together in silence and Sivaangi broke it after their dinner.

'Thanks..',Sivaangi said and Ashwin frowned at her.
'Neenga pesunadha keten..',Sivaangi said and Ashwin shook his head.

'Idhula thanks solla enna iruku... Opposite gender ah madhikiradhu onnum best quality oh illa superior quality oh illa basic quality..Idhu pasanga ponnunga rendu perukume porundhum...', Ashwin said.

'Adhuku illa..The way you believed me..Adhukudhan thanks..Enna yaarum ivlo nambunadhu illa..En life la first time..En appa ku aprom oruthar enna namburaaru..En appa pona aprom enna nambuna ore aalu neenga dhan..Adhukudhan thanks..',Sivaangi said and Ashwin just smiled at her.

'Ash..Naan onnu kekatuma?',she asked and he hummed.
'You are not the man whom you are outside..Oru super aana Ashwin irukaaru indha rude aana,strict aana Ash kulla..Yen avara hide panni vechurukeenga?',Sivaangi asked and Ashwin smirked.

'Therila..Nee solra andha Ashwin kaanama poi romba naal aagudhu..Nee solra Ashwin ku ulagatha paathu romba bayam..Manushangala paathu bayam..Enga close aayita vittutu poiduvaangalo nu..Yennaa naan face panna life apdi..

Divorced parents,Enaku kedaika vendiya chance ah kevalama use pannikitu iniku director aayirukura oru friend,Panakkaara maapla vandhadhum,picha kaara naaye nu moonjiki nera sollitu pona lover...

Indha pasam,love,nambikkai idhellam vecha thirumba hurt dhana aagurom,yedhuku idhellam kaatanumnu yosiche..And Im here now...Oru rude aana, strict aana cover up naan yen pannikiten theriyuma,To save the Ashwin inside me..Idhuku mela avan odanju poga koodadhunugradhukaga',Ashwin said still with no particular expression on his face.

'Ash...Indha ulagam romba perusu aana Vazhkai dhan romba chinnadhu..Indha periya ulagathula neraya manushanga irukaanga..And every individual deserves love..Neengalum..Ungalukulla irukura Ashwin ku kooda.. Ivlo periya ulagthula ungala namba,pasam vekka, ellathaiyu share pannika oruthar koodava iruka maatanga..Kandippa irupaanga,neenga theda vendiyadhilla avangale varuvaanga..Like a magic,oru accident maari..Nambunga Ash,I know its hard aana neenga nenacha mudiyum..Ivlo nadandhruku unga life la na kandippa kadavul edho ungaluku perusa setting pannirukaaru,wait pannunga..Kedaikum..',Sivaangi said and Ashwin smiled at her.

Sometimes,we don't need any life time experiment to change our thoughts or vision.A person or words from them is enough,to lift up our mood,to changs our opinion,to change our Vision of Life.Just like how Sivaangi changed his.

He never wanted to open up to anyone,but he himself didn't know why he opened up everything to her.But he felt relieved as he put down everything he carried.A new ray of hope formed inside him.The moment he felt that she wasn't just an intern to him.

'Accident maari..',he smiled at the day when he met Sivaangi for the first time.After losing all the hopes,he never invited or let anyone in his circle but she,she just entered inside without any information or warning.
They both felt the meaningful silence they had.They didn't know about the feeling they had for eachother but they liked it.May be was she the kadavul setting that she told?Not wanted to jump into any conclusions they both left from there as decided to go with a flow.

By then Ashwin started to smile at his colleagues, started speaking with them.Eventhough he wasn't came out from his circle completely but still he was trying.Its an mere shock for everyone but felt happy seeing Ashwin like this.

'Will miss you Sivaangi..',her brothers shared a group hug, bidding farewell to their most beloved sister.
'Naanum dhan na..',Sivaangi pulled back.
'Touch laye iru...',Vimal said and Sivaangi nodded.

Ashwin was sitting alone inside his cabin.Everything will be back to square again..No giggling and chatting sounds will be heard around, everything will be turn into professional and there will be no Sivaangi.

'Ash..',she called him standing outside his cabin and he excused her.He stood up from his chair and smiled a little at her.
'Kelamburen Ash..',she said half heartedly.Definitely she will miss her brothers,the studio and especially her Sidumoonji.

She didn't know what was he to her,but all her thoughts were about leaving him.
'All the best..',he extended his hand for a handshake while she reciprocated it.
'Poitu varen..',she removed his hold while he nodded.

'Appo enna miss panna maatengala?',she asked and he shrugged.
'Inga dhana iruka porom..Yen miss panna poren?Evlovo technologies kooda iruku..',Ashwin said making her sigh.

'Sidumoonji..Vaaya thorandhu sonnaa dhan ennavam..',Sivaangi pouted.

'Umm Sivaangi..',he called Sivaangi who already took some steps forward.
'Un certificates..Nee nenacha maariye periya edathula place aagu,Indha..',he said and she smiled receiving.
'Aprom..I have something for you..',he said and gave her a cover and a box.

'Airpods ah?',she asked.
'Purple colour! Aniku naandhana odachen..Adhaan and sorry',he said and she smiled as tears brimming her eyes.
'Idhu?',she asked and he smiled.
'Pirichu paaru..',he said and she opened the cover to find her photos.That was all taken at the day,the went to beach.

'Nee mattum dhan edupiya?',he raised his eyebrows and she smiled.
'Nalla iruku..',she said and he smiled.
'Bye Ash..',she left without turning back.

They both didn't want to leave eachother but something was holding them from opening up.May be the sudden moment of parting..They can be in touch through any technology but being together hits always different la?

Ashwin sighed as how she has came into his life and he knew she was something important to him.But its her dream to go more places and he can't hold her.She has changed his Vison of Life in such twenty days.
'Bye Sivaangi',he mumbled as watching her disappearing figure.

The next day,Ashwin walked into his studio.The usual joyous environment was missing around.Her sweet and positive aura,Her giggles all around,he even missed her cursing him Sidumoonji.He sighed and left to his cabin and shocked finding Sivaangi there.

'Sivaangi?', Ashwin mouthed in shock.
'Hello..Im Sivaangi Krishna Kumar, AK photography la intern ah work panniruken,and that's my experience..You can also go through my certificates..I just wanted to join AK photography as a photographer..Neenga ena solreenga?',she said and he suppressed his smile.

'Evlovo periya channels iruku, studios iruku..But why are you here?', Ashwin asked folding his arms.
'Because enaku idhan pudichuruku!',Sivaangi shrugged making him smile a little.
'Ippo siricheenga dhana?',she asked and he shrugged.
'Illaye..'

'Hmm..Ipdiye urutta vendiyadhu..Sidumoonji..',she twisted her lips.

'Fine then, welcome to AK photography Miss.Sivaangi...Im Ashwin!Ashwin Kumar!',he extended his hand for a handshake.
'Paravalla Ashwin ey,theriteenga..',Sivaangi shook her hand with his as they both decided to give a chance for the feelings they both were having!
