Sivaangi began reading his diary while Madhumitha slept next to her in college.

Diary:

En valkaila Marakamudiatha naal inaiku. athana per irunthum enna vanthu avlo santhosathoda katipudicha nee. Sathyama thappana enathoda una pakala. aana unmaiyave anaiku thadumariten. Udalala mattum illa ullathalaium thaan. Unaku pudichathu enamo Chanakiyan thaan analum Enaku enna solra mathiriye irunthathu. Unakave naan chanakiyana pol maranum nu asaipaten. 

(Today is my life's best day. Despite everyone being there, you still gave me a hug. Do not misinterpret my intentions. Today I felt shook. I had the impression that you just liked Chanakiyan, despite what you told me. I'd like to become a Chanakiyan.)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thinamum nee pora vali ellam nan poo pooka vaikuren, unala oru poo la kooda enna unara mudialaya? Pala naal nan unna ninachu muthamitta poova thaan nee thalaila vachitu poiruka, en mutham una sernthathu therialaya?

(Have you ever sensed my presence in the flowers that I planted daily on your pathway? The flower I kissed is often the one you choose. A kiss from me have you ever felt?)

Sivaangi had chills as she read those words. She is aware of Ashwin's deep love for her, but he expresses it in a unique and profound way. Sivaangi flushed today as she remembered that day. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Annanuku Visayam therinchu pochu. Enaku ithayame ninnu pona mathiri irunthathu di. Kutty enaku support panraan aanalum enala ethuvum pesa mudiala di. Ulukula orumathiri irunthathu. Muthal muraiah enala pesa mudiama thinarunen... Nee School than padikuraa nu anna sollum pothu ore kutra unarva irunthathu. Enaku un kooda pesanum palaganum nu asai irunthathu atha apadiae enakulla potu puthachukiten, un vaalkaila ennala entha bathippum vara koodathunnu. Enake acharyama irunthathu Ram sir um Mam um enna support panathu thaan. Enna thappa ninaipangannu ninachen, but avanga ithu ellam sagajam nu pesinanga. 

(My brother come to know about the news today. My heart seemed to have stopped pounding. Kutty is helping me, but I can't speak despite his assistance. I experienced an odd sensation inside. First time I have trouble speaking. I felt bad when he said, "You're just a schoolkid." I yearned to converse and interact with you, but at that time, I repressed my emotions. I don't want to ruin your life in any way by what I do. The support I received from Ram Sir and Seetha Mam shocked me.)

Unkita pesa koodathu nu anna sathyam panna sonnapo ennaku udambellam nadunga arambichuduchu. Unaku naan yarne theriama irukalam, aana ennoda santhosam nee thaan. una pathale enakulla oru nimathium santhosamum vanthidum. Ellarum enakaga support pana arambichutanga veetla, aana nan amaithiya thaan irunthen. Enaku peche varala. Un valkaiya nan keduthuruveno nu enake bayama irunthathu. Unna kadhalikurenanu ketapo unmaileyae ennaku theriala ma, una nan thavara kanotathula pathathu illa, una katipudikura mario, unaku mutham kodukura mathirio enaku kanavu kooda vanthathu illa. unkita naan enna ethir pakuren nu enake theriala. Natpu mattum pothuma? illa nan unna virumburena? 

(My body shook when my brother asked me to swear that I wouldn't talk to you. Despite the fact that you may not know me, you bring me happiness. You are all I need to look at to feel happy. At home, everyone began to help me. I couldn't even speak. I'm worried I might ruin your life. I'm not sure if I still love you. I never intended to hurt you, and I never fantasized about giving you a kiss or a hug. I'm not sure if I hope for love or friendship from you.)

Enaku matum thaan en unarvugal puriala, aana matha ellarum nan unna virumburen nu mudive panitaanga, epadi nu enaku theriala. Unaku 20 vayasu aana piragu thaan nan en kadhala solanum, naan un kadhala na irukanum nu sathyam panna sonanga anna. enakum athu sariana mudiva thonuchu. sathyam paniten. Enaku mudhalla unaku nanbana irukanum nu asai. Una mulusa purinchutu, en kadhala unaku unarthi athuku apuram naan en kadhala solanum unkita.  Ithellam nadakuma nu kooda enaku theriala, aana nadakkum nu oru nambikkai enakulla iruku. 

(Except I didn't understand how I was feeling, but everyone else in my house did. They came to the conclusion that I adore you. I'm not sure how they came to a decision. My brother advised me to make a pledge that "I should not propose to you before you reach 20." I shouldn't act like a lover around you. I must be your friend. I made him a commitment that I would embrace this concept as well. I want to be your friend and truly comprehend you. I'll make you my proposal after that. I'm not sure if any of these will come to pass. But I harbor a glimmer of hope.)

Nan anathai nu enna othukidathadi, naan kadhala sollum bothu yethuko.. Enakaga nan thernthedutha ore uravu nee than. Un annanunga kooda nanum friend aganum nu asai di. Enaku kutty matum thaan nanban nu irukaan. Una kalyanam panita, un annanungalum friend agiduvanga. En melaium anbu vaipangalla. 

(Don't reject me by saying that I am an orphan, please. Please accept my love. The only person I select to be in a relationship with in my life is you. I would like to be friends with your brothers. I just have kutty as a pal. They will love me and become my friends once I get married.)

Enaku peria kudumbama vaala asai di, neraiah kulanthaigal pethukanum. Un rendu annangal kudumbam namma kudumbam nu ellarum pakathula pakathula irukanum. 

(I would like a large family. We ought to expand our family. We and your brother's family ought to dwell close by.)

She sensed Ashwin's voice close to her ears as she was reading. Every word he wrote was audible to her. He engulfed her in his love.

Within minutes she felt her body was shaking. 

Madhumitha- "yemma para-thevathai, konjam boologathuku vaa" , she told by shaking Sivaangi. (Oh God, Angel, please come to this world.)

Sivaangi- "enna di?" (What?)

Madhumitha- "Ipadi neeya sirichu neeya vetkapata, paaka bayama iruku. Enna visayam?" (If you smile and blush by yourself then I will be scared. What is the matter?)

Sivaangi- "kadhal romba vithyasamanthu illa" (Love is very different, right?)

Madhumitha- "illa" (No). Sivaangi glared at her.

Madhumitha- "Kadhalicha thane di therium athellam , sari atha vidu. velila polama?" (Only those who love can know this. leave that. Shall we go out?)

Sivaangi- "enga porathu?" (Where?)

Madhumitha- "rendu theru thalli oru roattu kadai iruku, vaa poi saptu varalam. nalla irukum" (Within two streets of here is a hotel on the side of the road. There is good food. We'll get that..)

Sivaangi- "Epadi porathu?" (How can we leave?)

Madhumitha- "sevuru yeri kuthichu thaan" (Climbing the walls.)

Sivaangi- "ithuku munnadi panathu illa, nee help panuviah?" (I haven't done before. Will you help me?)

Madhumitha- "definitely,  definitely"

Sivaangi put a message in her family group that , "nan college sevuru yeri kuthichu  velila poga poren, roattu kadaila sapda. First time sevuru yeri kuthika poren. romba exited ah iruku" I'm going to the hotel on the side of the road after climbing the college walls. As this is my first time, I am quite excited..).

Madhumitha and Sivaangi both climbed the college wall, leapt from it, and headed to the roadside store. Sivaangi adored the meals there. After thanking Madhu, Sivaangi kissed her cheeks. They are both having a great time. 

They scaled the wall once more to enter the college. Their professor, Sudha mam, who didn't like them, caught them in the act.

After reprimanding them, she escorted them right away to the principal room. To call their parents, Sudha persuaded the principal. The Rakshan and Madhumitha family was called by the principal. 

Rakshan visited and spoke with the principal there. The Madhumitha family did not attend.

Rakshan- "Sir, I am Rakshan. Sivaangi' s brother.", The same time Ashwin too entered the Principal's room. 

Principal- "Sir, unga sister college sevuru eri kuthichu velila poirukanga" (Sir, Your sister climbed the wall and left)

Sivaangi had some scratches on her leg, which Ashwin discovered while inspecting her.

Ashwin- "kaal-la enna adi paturukku, ennachu di? (Your leg has been wounded. what happened? )", he forget the surrounding.

Sivaangi- "thirumbi sevuru yeri kuthikum bothu, sudha mam pathutanga, bayathula vilunthuten" (Sudha Mam caught us when we were climbing. I was overcome with fear and fell.)

Ashwin- "avanga paatha pathutu pogatume, unna yar vegama kuthika sonanga",  (Anyway, let her take attention. Why did that make you nervous?) , He was looking at the injury.

Rakshan- "pakathula ethavathu kallu vachu athula yeri poirukalamla, varum pothu iranga easy ah irukumla. Sir, medical kit enga iruku?" (Why not have a nearby stone to climb? It might be simple to go back.. Sir, where is the medical kit?)

Principal- "anga iruku" (There it is). Rakshan took the kid. 

Rakshan- "Madhu, ungalukum adi patruka?" (Madhu, Have you been wounded?)

Madhumitha- "light ah?" 

Rakshan- "machan, konjam cotton eduthu kodu, neenga utkarunga naan marunthu potu vidaren"  (Ashwin, give me some cotton. Sit down, please. I'll apply cream.)

Madhumitha- "paravailla vendam" (its okay. No need.)

Sivaangi- "en annan thaan di, marunthu potuko" (he is my brother only. get treatment.)

Rakshan- "potuko ma, enna oru doctor ah ninachuko"  (Get treatment ma, just consider me as a doctor.)

Ashwin- "machan ointment edu (Give me the ointment)", when Ashwin applied Sivaangi hissed in pain.

Ashwin- "first time kuthika pora, konjam carefulah kuthikalamla. illaina enna kooptrukalam la naan pudichupen la" (You cannot be any more cautious when climbing for the first time. Why don't you call me? I might have been able to assist you.)

The principal is unsure of her next steps. That Sudha Mam departed after complaining was a miracle, he thanked God.

Principal- "Ashwin sir, ipadi sevuru eri kuthikurathu ellam.." (Ashwin Sir, climbing the walls like this...)

Ashwin- "neenga enna decision eduthalum engaluku okay thaan sir, but iva illama naan intha college la work pana maaten" (We accept your decision sir, But without her I won't work here.)

Principal- "this is not fair"

Ashwin- "exactly sir. Morning fees katumudiama velila ninna students ku neenga entha guide um panala, ippo ivangala mattum punish panrathu epadi sari?"
(Exactly sir, Morning Few students stood outside for not paying the fees. You didn't guide those students, How can you them punish now?)

Principal- "avangalukku naan enna sir panamudium?"  (What can I do for them sir?)

Ashwin- "ungaluku neraiah welface organisations therium, yaraiyavathu at least contact pana solalamla... neenga recommend panalainalum atleast avangaluku muyarchi pana oru valiyachum katirukalam la sir"
(You are familiar with a lot of charities. Why not direct the pupils to make contact with them? Even though you didn't promote it, you can at least direct them to the contact information and payment options..)

Principal- "ok sir, naan avangaluku guide panren" (Ok Sir, I will guide them.)

Ashwin- "naan already paniten sir" (I did that already)

Principal sighed. Ashwin is always right. He is very humble but very adamant when comes to Sivaangi. Principal always need Ashwin to work here. 

Principal- "neengalavathu inime ipadi ellam pannum pothu yaarkitaium matama panunga, enala adikadi mannika mudiathu" (At least you student told get caught while doing things like this. I can forgive you all the time.) , He said leaving a long breathe thinking that love can man a person crazier.

Madhumitha grasped Rakshan's shirt in distress as he applied lotion to her legs. Rakshan's hand caught a single drop of her tear. He was filled with an unknowable feeling.

When Rakshan turned to face her, She was holding back her tears as she gazed longingly at Sivaangi and Ashwin. The scene that Madhumitha is longingly eyeing caught Rakshan's attention. Ashwin was holding Sivaangi's leg in his lap.

Ashwin- "kuthikum pothu enna kooptrukalamla, romba valikutha?"  (Why didn't you call me when you fell down? is it paining?)

Sivaangi- "illa nga, light ah thaan" (No lightly)

Ashwin- "Sudha mam paatha thaan enna? atha ellam nan pathuka matena? en bayapudanum?"
(What if Sudha mam noticed?  Do you think I can take care of these. Why you get scared?)

Sivaangi- "sudden ah pakavum bayanthuten paa. athula vilunthuten" (I got scared of her sudden visit. So I fell down)

Ashwin- "Nee ipadi bayanthu vilugurathuka naan oruthan inga iruken" (Am i here to watch you like this scaring and felling down?)

Sivaangi- "ini naan ethukum bayapuda maaten" (Hereafter I won't )

Ashwin- "elunthu nikka mudiuma?" (Will you able to stand?)

Sivaangi- "enaku avlo vali illa" (I am having much Pain now)

Ashwin- "Cab book pani po veetuku" (I will book a cab for you)

Sivaangi- "athellam mudiathu naan unga kooda bike la thaan varuven" (No I will come with you in Bike.)

Ashwin- "kaal veengidum ma" ( It might got swelling.)

Sivaangi -"Athellam paravalla please"  (Its okay, Please)

Ashwin- "machan nee sollu da (Machan you say)", he uttered while examining her legs.

Rakshan and Madhumitha then turned away from Ashwin and Sivaangi and collected themselves.

Ashwin- "machan"

Rakshan- "sonnathum ava ketra porala? neeyae kootitu vaa. athukunu romba vegama ootatha"
(She will never listen. You taker her with you, But don't cross your speed limit.)

Ashwin nodded.

Rakshan- "neenga thaniah poiduveengala?" (Will you go alone?)

Madhumitha- "hmm"

Ashwin- "nee poi un bike ah vitutu car eduthutu vaa machan. muthalla avangala veetla kondu poi vitutu vaa, apuram en bike eduthuko naanga car la varom." (You leave you bike at home. Get here in a car, then drive Madhu to her house. You take my bike, and I'll drive the car with Sivaangi along for the ride.)

Sivaangi- "ithu nalla idea". (Good Idea)

Rakshan - "sari naan poitu varen. Mapla nee rendu peraium paathuka. Nan poitu car eduthutu varen", (Okay I will go. Mapla, Take care of both. I will go and return by car.) he left.
