Sivaangi was sitting before her friend who was unusually silent and composed than her usual chirpy being. Tarunya took a sip of her cappuchino in front of her and looked into sivaangi's eyes before giving a faint smile.

Sivaangi " ennaachud thideernu koopta pesanumnu sonna nethu andha paiyanta pesurenu sonna ennaachu ?"

Tarunya took another sip and said  " he said he never intented to look at me that way "

Sivaangi was beyond shocked by the words she heard . She was observing the bond her friend shared with a guy for almost 4 years down the time . the way he cared for her , the way he looked or admired her , the way he gets posessive over her for spending more time with sivaangi almost made sivaangi beleive that he was madly into her friend . Tharunya was gradually developing deep feelings for that guy and confessed her feelings just yesterday after longtime of emotional turmoil and the answer she got was obviously unexpected . 

sivaangi " adhepdi d avan unna admire panradhu posessive aaguradhu ellaame naanga kannaala paathurukome . infact once he even fought with you for spending more time with me than him la ? idhukellaam peru love illena then what is love ?"

tharunya let out a smile and said " oru chinna vidhyasam iruku"

sivaangi scrunched her eyebrows and asked"what ?"

tharunya " admirationkum lovekum oru hairline dhaand difference . sometimes naama enna dhaan posessive aanaalum avanga illaama nammalaala irukave mudiyaadhunaalum we wont intend to have a romantic relationship ahead with them . .... epdi solradhu may be a kind of platonic relationship? "

sivaangi's mind started muddling up with thoughts and as tharunya was speaking she found something coming into her way and her stomach started developing invisible knots unknowingly . 

tharunya continued " enakume avanoda romanticaa irukanumnulaam idhu vara thonunadhu illa sivaangi just oru PRACTICAL thinking dhaan . nammala nalla purunjukita paiyan nammala nalla paathukura paiyan avanoda irukela safe and warmaa irukum idhu lifepartneraa irundha nallaarukumenu thonuchu . i confessed aana avanuku apdi enna paaka mudila and thats fine ."

sivaangi " aa.... aana tharu appo what is love defined as even d ?naa kannaala paathuruke yoou guys were something magical and paakeleye avo azhaga irukum ... avanuku un mela apdi ou intension illanu sonna namba mudilad . appo edhu dhaan love ?"

tharunya got that he friend started comparing her own life with that of hers and held her hand " love.... it is something unexplainable d . namma lifela neraya peruku indha maari oru platonic relationship irukum . every platonic relationship might not turn into love but every love starts from a platonic relationship . adhu oru spark oru sudden magic . silaruku adhu nadakkum palaruku adhu nameless and labelless bondaave mudunjurum . "

sivaangi fell silent by hearing to all these and her naturally overthinking mind started to compare this with the bond she shard with her wellwisher ... or more precisely the person she has a huge crush or beyond that . ASHWIN. her mind started to ask the question which she always avoids or brushes off to answer " WHO IS ASHWIN TO YOU ?"

sivaangi asked in a low voice " unnaala avan innoru ponna kalyanam pannikitaalo illa commit aanaalo bare pannika mudiyuma ?"

tharunya smiled and said " idhukaana answer theriyala d . lifela next secondey nichayam illa nee  ennana years after nadakka pora vishayatha kekura . mm.... may be may be not aana edhuva irundhaalum i will start accepting and move on ."

sivaangi was clearly confused and her mind started asking her questions one after the other . 

"will she be able to see him lead a life with another girl ?
