On the other side, they are walking on the garden side of the hotel.

Sujithra- " aththaan relax.. enna ithu ivlo stress agura?"

Arjun- " itha epadi share panrathunu puriala jiira kutty, epadi anni kitayae poi anna va correct panna madhu ku idea kuduthen nu solrathu"

Sujithra- " atha nee yaen correct panrathunu solra.. oru understanding create panna try panom nu sollu.."

Arjun looked at her via corner of his eyes. Sujithra smiled with a get caught look.. Arjun automatically smiled. 

Arjun- " epadi sonalum reason athu thaan, en annan enna pacha pachaya kepaen"

Sujithra- " nee pavama mugatha vachuko. ipo namaku perusa vera vali illa"

Arjun started at the vehicles which is crossing the road without telling anything. They sat in the bench at the garden.

Sujithra-  "aththaan.."

Arjun- " naama panathu thappu Jiira kutty. antha thappa othuka oru thani thairiyam venum.. atha enakulla theditu iruken"

Sujithra- " nalla thedi paaru, ulla thaan engayachum vachiruppa.. mun jenma memories ellam vera vanthiruku unaku.. so nalla deep ah thedi paaru". Arjun instead of smiling or chuckling left out a long breathe. 

Sujithra-  " enna aththaan yosikura..", She leaned on him.

Arjun- "onum illa jiira kutty..", He leaned on her and clubbed her hands with his.

Sujithra- " romba kastama iruntha vitru aththaan, naama vera yosikalam.."

Arjun- " ennoda intha thayakathunala bathika padaporathu naama illa, thuri.. ithu ava valkai aache jiira kutty."

Sujithra left out a long breathe and said, " venumna onnu pannu, first mama kita pesu apuram akka kita naama pesalam.". Arjun looked at her with thoughts.

Sujithra- " try pannu aththaan. mudincha pannu illaina vera option yosikalam. ithu onnu than vali nu kandipa irukaathu. en annana keta kandipa vali solluvan. enaku nambikkai iruku, romba kastapaduthikatha.. "

Arjun left out a long breathe and said, " mind blank ah iruku di.. oru mathiri light ah tension aguthu.. Anni, etha serious ah eduthupanga, ethu easy ah eduthupanga nu enaku theriala jiira kutty. naama solla porathu avangala hurt pannumanu yosanaiah iruku.. "

Sujithra -" ipadi yosichutae iruntha epadi aththaan? ithuku enna artham?. "

Arjun- " i think i am not ready"

Sujithra- " this is just a reason pa. ellarum ella visayathaium ready anathuku apuram panna mudiathu.. ipo naama kulanthai pethukanumna namma appa amma va akurathuku ready agitu thaan pethukanuma?". Arjun looked at her. 

Sujithra- " epadi kandupudipa aththaan, naama ready agitom nu.."

Arjun furrowed his eyebrows and asked, " namma kulanthaiah naama yaen valakanum.. athuku thaan un ananum en anannum irukanungallae.."

Sujithra- "haan, correct aththaan, ippo mattum avanga illaya? ithaium avanga pathuka matangala?". Arjun chuckled understandingly. He is trapped by her successfully.

Sujithra- " akka ku yetha mathiri pesanumnu ninaikatha aththaan, nadanthatha sollu, unaku thonuratha sollu.. mathatha avanga pathupanga..". Arjun  looked down and stared at his hands. 

Sujithra- "inum enna yosanai aththaan"

Arjun- " pesaren, first annan kita pesaren apuram anni kita solren.. nee poi anna va vara sollu". 

Sujithra- " mudiuma? illa vera yosipoma?"

Arjun- " illa pesalam.. pesita enaku oru peria relief irukum." Sujithra nodded his head and went in. 

Inside, When Sujithra entered, everyone looked at her. 

Sujithra- " aththaan velila thotathula utkanthirukanga.. unna kooptanga mama", there is no chirpiness in her voice. She just stated blankly. 

Vihaan looked at Madhav. Madhav blinked with a smile. Vihaan let the room. 

Madhav- " ennachu Suji ma, nee yaen ivlo dull ah iruka?", he extended his hand. Sujithra settle herself in him. 

Sujithra- "aththanuku kastama iruku.. enakum valikuthu.. ithu onnu than plan ah anna?", she looked at him with expectation

Madhav smiled and asked, " enna nadanthathunu unaku theiruma Suji ma?". 

Sujithra nodded her head and said, " thuri sonna"

Madhav- " ipo irukura situation ku namakulla hide and seek game ellam iruka koodathu Suji ma. athulaium antha smoke ippo Chithi kita thaan iruku.. Namma weakness ah purinchukitu sari panna thaan adutha step ah strong ah eduthu vaika mudium"

Sujithra- " naan venumna enna nadanthathunu solren anna"

Madhav chuckled and said, " unalla  avanoda kayatha thaan solla mudium ma, avanoda valiah solla mudiathu", he kissed her forehead and said, " Naan pathukaren da"

Sujithra nodded her head and hugged him. Madhav gently combed. The chirpy girl is not found. only Mrs. Arjun is here, who is silently praying for Arjun. 

Of course she is a magic who can make anyone to be happy, who can anyone to laugh whole heartedly but she needs her soul partner to make that magic work on her. Dharshini and Aishwarya looked at each other understanding her inner self. They decided that they should not lead the discussion as an emotional one. They should take it in a smooth way as much as possible. 

On that side, Vihaan went to the garden to see Arjun. Arjun is looking down staring at his fingers in hands. He is just playing with his fingers absent mindedly. Vihaan smiled and neared him. 

Vihaan- " enna da??". Arjun looked at him blankly. There is no emotion in his eyes. It says he is blank. Something is troubling him, even after realizing himself. 

Vihaan hugged him once and patted his back for a minute. They both then separated. 

Vihaan- " enna da thonuthu.."

Arjun -" oru ponnoda character visayathula naan yaen maatikuren anna? intha visayam naan matum samanthapatathu illa, thuri-um thaan. avaloda personal ah just naanum athe room la iruthaen nra ore karanathukaga, epadi anna share panna mudium? romba kolapama iruku.."

Vihaan smiled and said,  " madhu nadantha visayatha yarkitaium solalaya? "

Arjun- " jiira kutty kita matum share panikita.."

Vihaan- " avlo thaan Arjuna, manasu vitu pesa koodiyavanga kita ava solita.. Nee than yar kitaium sollama iruka."

Arjun looked at him once trying to see his soul. 

Vihaan chuckled and said, " enna da?",  he asked him in a calm lovely way.

Arjun- " solatuma anna?"

Vihaan- " sollu daa, nee ipo solaporathala namakulla ethuvum maridathu.. naan paathukaren. Maddy irukaan. "

Arjun -" naan un idathula irunthiruntha koodava?". Vihaan looked at him straight into his eyes.

Arjun- " nee seiya vendiatha naan senju, atha nee senja mathiri kaamichukita koodava?"

Vihaan looked at Arjun with deep stare. He then asked, " appadina anaiku thuri room ku nee Arjun ah poniah illa vihaan ah poniah?"

Arjun, " Arjun ah pogala.. "

Vihaan eyes moved between Arjun's eyes, "yaen daa"

Arjun- " appo enaku athu thaan sari nu patuchu.. vera vali theriala anna.. Thuri adi vanguratha paaka mudiala... un kita vanthu avalukaga pesa-vum mudiala.. Anba ellam ketu vanga koodathu nu nee thane solli thantha.. ava unna ovoru thadava meet panna varum pothu nee perusa eduthukala.. athanala,  "

Vihaan- " athanala.."

Arjun- " thuri ammava yematha, naanum jiira-vum than unaku pathila ellam pannom, nee panna mathiri kaamichukitom.". Vihaan looked around to digest the things that he is hearing. His eyeballs moved here and there.

Arjun- " anna" 

Vihaan- " yaen da ava room ku pona? antha pisasu pathi therinjum ethuku pona?"

Arjun- " thuri ku periods anna, ava already weak ah iruntha.. naan ulla poi avala velila kootitu vanthiralam nu thaan ponaen.. but "

Vihaan looked at him with unbelievable look. 

Arjun chuckled and said, " athu kooda nallathu thaan anna. oru vela nee poiruntha antha pisasu, game aadi unga rendu perukum kalyanam panni vachirukum.. nalla vela apadi nadakala.. ippo, unga rendu perukumae unga kadhal kdidaichuruku"

There is a prevailed silence in the environment for a minute. 

Vihaan- " sari ulla vaa, vanthu ellam sollu naan pathukaren...", Arjun looked at him with a shock and surprise. 

 Vihaan- " enna pakura?"

Arjun - " anna sorry anna", he hugged him again.

Vihaan- " sari sari vidu.. enoda horoscope la thane nee valantha appo ipadi thaan irukum. ", Arjun chuckled. 

Vihaan- " vaa polam avanga ellam tension oda waiting". Arjun nodded and they both entered the room. 

Once they entered, Arjun looked at Sujithra. Sujithra is trying to read things from Arjun's face. Arjun winked at her. Sujithra smiled widely. 

Vihaan knocked his head and said, " inga enna prachanai poikitu iruku, nee enna panitu iruka? Maddy, ivangala inum konjam olunga valathirukanumo?"

Madhav giggled and asked, " yaen da enna aachu?"

Vihaan- "ippo soluvan paaru"

Arjun- " anna..", he whined.

Vihaan- " sari sari utkaaru, time aachu".. 

Arjun seated near Sujithra. Sujithra and Arjun looked at each other. Sujithra looked at him raising her eyebrows and Arjun nodded with a smile. Sujithra smiled. They thought that no one noticed. Vihaan neared Madhav and mumbled something in his ears. 

Dharshini- " okay, ipo all set. vaa Arjun.. ipo flashback la ethana varushathuku pinnadi poga porom"

Arjun & Sujithra  looked at her the next moment with amusement gasping- " haan". They surely didnt expect this kind of conversation starting. 

Aishwarya- " athuku munnadi oru intro kuduthudu.. Thuri um neengalum close friends aanathu epadi? relatives ah irunthu apadiaye friends agiteengala?"

Arjun- " illa akka, relation mattum illa, thuri ennoda classmate. Naanga ore school. thuri-kum enakum same age akka. She is three months younger than me.. "

Dharshini-" oh appo ava unna vida china ponna?". Arjun nodded his head.  

Arjun- " amam anni. Ava 5th la irunthu en kooda than padicha. appo than mama intha ooruku transfer aagi vanthirunthanga.. Naanga ellarum ore school la thaan padichom... enga moonu perukkum oru visayam common ah irunthathu athu thaan engala sethu vachathu.."

Aishwarya- " enna matter da?". 

Arjun- " akka appo naanga chinna pasanga, antha vayasula naanga apadi thaan ninachom.. but ipo engaluku ellam purinchuduchu.. neenga.."

Dharshini & Aishwarya- " shaabbaa...", they both said in unison with a boring tone. 

Arjun and Sujithra blinked at them while Madhav and Vihaan chuckled silently. Madhav and Vihaan completely understood why they are behaving like this. In-fact they are not treating it as a session or revelation. They are handling both like talking gossips and teasing them funnily. Madhav felt a relaxation on the way Aishwarya handle Arjun. 

Arjun and Sujithra looked at each other.

Aishwarya- " Arjun, manae thenae ellam nanae potukaren.. Enna nambu Arjun, naan oru psychiatrist.. intha manae thenaea va epadi podurathunnu degree ae vachurukaen. enna matter nu sollu.."

Arjun and Sujithra chuckled by the way Aishwarya muttered. Waiter came and served them the snacks. Madhav and Vihaan ordered it. Of course they are ready for the show and truth. Both Madhav and Vihaan sat behind Arjun and Sujithra. Dharshini And Sujithra stood in front of Arjun and Sujithra.

Sujithra- " athu perusa onum illa darling, enga parents ku engala pudikathu nu ninachom.."

Aishwarya- " neengaluma.. nanum apadi thaan ninachaen", they hi-fied each other. 

Dharshini- " nanaum apadi than ninachaen but en parents ku illa iva parents ku..". They all giggled. 

Aishwarya- "hmm, appo madhu-kum athe nilamai thaan. apuram?", She took a chips and passed it to Dharshini. Arjun and Sujithra too took snacks. they started to munch while sharing.

In between these, Vihaan conveyed Madhav whatever they conversed in the garden in the mild voice only Madhav could hear. 

Sujithra - " Madhu namala vida paavam.. Nangalachum compare panna siblings vachurukom, athanala adi vanginom.. but avaluku epavumae adi thaan. antha pisasu chithi sonna udane ava senjidanum, illaina semma adi vilugum avaluku. paaka pavama irukum.."

Arjun- " engalukum athe nilamai thaan. naan anna mathiri illainu pala naal amma kita adi vangiruken. anna romba reserved anni, avlo seekram mingle aaga matan. but naan ellar koodaium palaguven. athuku vera thaniah adi vanguvaen, ' munna pinna theriathavanga kita palagatha.. pesathanu' nu vachu adichurukanga"

Sujithra- " enaku ellam kekave vendam. ipo kooda adi vilugum. etho en annan naduvula vanthu thadutha konjam kuraium. sollapona, enaku ipadi ooda pracise pannivitathe amma thaan. amma kita irunthu thappichu odi odi ipo athuvae palagiduchu.."

All four chuckled. Arjun and Sujithra forgot about Vihaan and Madhav and Started to share as if they are friends. They are munching and discussing.

Aishwarya- " Madhu ku romba adi viluguma?"

Sujithra- " ama darling, neenga guess pana mathiri Madhu ku childhood trama thaan. adi vangi vangi ava amma sonna automatic ah senjuruva.. avalala meerave mudiathu. romba bayapaduva.. perusa yaar koodavum palagamatta, thaniah thaan irupa. naanga than wanted ah poi ava kita palaginom. ava thaniah irukurathu engaluku pudikala.. aththaan pesi pesi ava normal akiduvanga. apadiae friends agitom"

Arjun -" oruthadava, First rank vangalanu veetla semma adi vangitu class ku vanthiruntha.. paaka romba pavama irunthathu. ava kaila, kaal la ellam veengi poi irunthathu.. muthugula kai thadam apadiyae irunthathu.. naan than first rank eduthirunthaen, ava second rank vangiruntha. ennala ava adivanguna mathiri feel agiduchu enaku."

Sujithra- "athuku apuram aththaan first rank edukuratha vitutanga.. onnu rendu perum first rank edupanga, illaina ava first rank aththaan second rank nu edupanga.."

Dharshini- " paah, nee first rank ah vitu kuduthutiah Arjun? nijamava?", She asked surprisingly. 

Arjun- " ennaku, veetla adi vangama annan pathupaan anni. pavam ava veetuku ore ponnu. mama vera work work nu suthura aalu, perusa ivala kandukala.. athan naan second rank eduka arambichaen. Naan entha rank eduthalum, en veetla perusa reaction illa, annan strict ah naan pathukaren nu solitaan. Naan first edukalainalum anna en mela pasama thaan irunthaan, kovapadala.. So enaku athu affect agala. sollapona benefits thaan irunthathu, naan first rank ah vitu kuduthathunala, thuri enaku sila help pannuva"

Aishwarya- " enna help?"

Arjun- " annan school mudichutu ponathum naan thaan  assistant school people leader ah iruthaen.. apuram school people leader agiten. appo ellam naan adikadi class ah cut adipaen, sports practice, culturals practice nu poiduvaen, Jiira kutty aium ellathaium sethu vitruvaen.. practice iruko illayo naanga rendu perum permission ketu velila vanthu onna sernthu vilayaditu irupom, onna suthitu irupom... appo ellam thuri thaan enaku back up yenna avaluku class ah cut adikura alavuku thairiam kidaiyathu.

Aishwarya- " appove vaa daa. nee pinjula palukala daa.. paluthutu thaan pinjagiruka."

Sujithra- "en aththaan mela kannu vaikatha darling.. "

Aishwarya- " ithu veraya?". she mocked. Arjun rubbed his nape while Sujithra, Aishwarya and Dharshini giggled.

Sujithra- " athuku apuram enga veetla vanthu thuri ah antha pisasu padikurathu vitutu pochu. appo thaan mamavum anna-vum avaluku solli koduka arambichanga. mama ku avlova porumai kidaiyathu. takkunu thuri ah thitiruvaanga. thuri ku mama kita oru bayam undu.. mama adicha thaan nu illa, morachalaae ava payapuduvaa..  aana antha pisasu mamakita thaan padika vitutu pogum, mamakita thaan ' avala pathirama pathuko, solikodu' nu solitu pogum, en annana kandukaathu. thuri, enga kooda vilayanda thitum... mama kooda poi vilayada sollum"

Dharshini and Aishwarya looked at each other. 

Arjun- " enaku jiira kutty than avaluku naan thaan nu epavo mudivu panitanga.. so general ah pesum pothu kodoa devi athai, 'naan soli pathuten ka kekala.. avala katika poravan kooda thane pora pogatum' nu soluvanga.. veetla epovame perceptions apadi thaan irukum"

Aishwarya- " avanga intention ennanu epadi kandupudicheenga?"

Sujithra- " aththanuku mama polave Archelogist aganumnu asai.. mama va paathum en anna-va paathum vanthathu thaan antha asai. so avanga padicha college layae join panitanga..

Dharshini- " plan ah?"

Aishwarya- " epadi daa?"

Sujithra- " athu onum peria visayam illa darling.. ipo ethuku antha pisasu ethuku archeologist thaan aganumnu solluthu"

Aishwarya- " anna ku archeology thaan pudikum athanala.."

Sujithra- " athuku naan, 'mama enna sonanga'nu kekanum.. antha pisasuku kekura alavuku sathama pesi.."

Arjun- " athuku naan, 'en annan reject panitaan, avanuku same field la irukura ponnu vendamam.. pudiakalaiaam, bore adikumam. Doctors, engineer kooda vendamam, romba time spend panna mudiatham..  so vera field la irukura ponna thaan kalayanam pannika poranam nu sollanum. "

Arjun- " en annan power enakae appo thaan full ah relaize aachu. avan pera solli perform panathum thuri life ae change agiduchu.."

Dharshini- " simple worthy plan.. epadi ipadi ellam yosikureenga?"

Aishwarya -" apuram enna aachu?"

Arjun and Sujithra left out a long breathe and said, " athuku apuram thaan ellam start aachu"

Madhav- " apove vaa?"

Vihaan- " inum ethana ragasiam thaan vachirukeenga rendu perum"

Arjun and Sujithra looked back at them blinking realizing they are sitting at the back.
