Once everyone finished the dinner. Athulya with deep thinking went inside her room. He saw Siddhik sat in the corner of the bed playing with his finger ring by sliding in and out. Athulya smiled at him. The same gesture in which he had at the theatre. May be this is his mannerism while he gets tensed.
Athulya locked the door and neared him. He looked up at her due to the sound. Athulya sat near to him and extended his hands. Siddhik widened his eyes unable to believe that. Athulya looked straight into his eyes. He automatically hugged her. At first just wrapping but then he hugged her tightly. He need her embrace to console himself.
Athulya patted his back like consoling him. Siddhik moved a little away and looked like analyzing her.
Siddhik- "ennachu? santhosapada vendia nerathula oru mathiri iruka", He calmly asked her. Athulya looked at him and left out a long breathe.
Athulya- "new program koduthathula santhosam thaan. but athuku reason, avlova letters varala.. comments varala nu thaan.. atha ninaicha thaan oru mathiri iruku.."
She didn't lied. This is the first thought she had, when she came to know that there are no mails to read further for the existing program. She just told him now, to made it up.
Siddhik- "Athulya, Munnadi rendu pera show panitu iruntheenga, ipo nee thaniah panna pora.. Sometimes, situation are meant for the growth. Ipadi oru situation varalaina nee kandipa thaniah panrathuku volunteer paniruka maata.. Go with the flow. kandipa intha program success agum."
Athulya- "success agalaina?"
Siddhik- "agalaina, then this is not your cup of tea. avlo thaan.. This is not your passion or dream. Itha nee oru experience kaga thaan panra. It is to explore yourself. Sachin Tendulkar ah avaroda, cricket experience ah vachu thaan talent ah illianu decide pananum, avaruku vegetables vanga theriuratha vachu decide panna koodathu.. oru vela avar sariah vendakka vangalaina velaiku aga mataru mudivu eduthuda mudiuma?"
Athulya laughed and Siddhik too chuckled after muttering. Athulya - "mudiathu thaan"
Within seconds, Athulya- "oru vela success agitenna?"
Siddhik chuckled and said, "you are a multi talented person, avlo thaan. Nee konjam kooda ninachu paka mudiatha visayatha unnala nalla panumudium na unnoda kanavaium unnala nijam aaka mudium nu eduthuko.."
Athulya- "en kanava? enaku enna kanavu?", she asked him with a confusion.
Siddhik- " sonthama company arambikanumamae unaku.. un amma sonanga.. "
Athulya- "eppo?"
Siddhik- "un graduation appo pesinatha kaamichanga.."
Athulya giggled and said, "athu dialogue nalla iruku prepare pani pesinen.. avlo thaan". Siddhik looked at her with an amazing expression and giggled.
Athulya leaned on Siddhik soldier and hold his hands.
Athulya- "ungaluku ethavathu goal, dreams irunthatha?". His body stiffed once and then relaxed.
Siddhik- "apadi ellam perusa onnum illa ma.. "
Athulya- "Just explore yourself.. ", She told him looking at his eyes exactly like him. He chuckled at her and nodded as yes.
------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, In the college as usual Siddhik was taking his class. Athulya came at that time and waited at the door. Siddhik noticed her when he turned to the board.
Siddhik- "yes come in"
Athulya came and neared him without any hesitation in front of all students.
Athulya -"kilamba poren"
Siddhik- "Athukullaya? okay poitu vaa"
Athulya- "veetu savi venum.. veetuku poga poren", he took the key from his pant pocket and gave it to her. Everyone saw that.
Siddhik- "ethuku?". Athulya got it from him and started to answer him.
Athulya -"dress kilinjuduchu.. bench orathula maati... poi change pananum.."
Siddhik- "appo nee bike la poga vendam.. en cabin la iru, naan class mudichutu vanthu kootitu poren. car la polam"
Athulya- "unglauku aditha hour um class irukume"
Siddhik- "nana vera yarkoodavavathu change panikuren.. nee poi wait pannu". Athulya nodded and went.
In Siddhik' s cabin, some girl students came.
GIrl1- "hey yaar nee? inga ethuku inga utkanthudkitu iruka?"
Athulya- "sir thaan inga iruka sonaru"
Girl 2- "naangalum konja naala pathukitu thaan irukom.. Nee romba sir oda close ah palagura mathiri iruku.."
Athulya mind voice- "en purushan kooda thane palaguren.. iva yen pongura?"
Girl 3- "nee relation ah irukalam athukaga romba otikitu alayatha.. avarku inga already heavy competition iruku.. nee elam kita kooda vara mudiathu"
Athulya looked at them like 'are you all mad' and thought, 'ithunga ethuku ippo mudinju pona kalyanathuku molam adichukitu irukunga?'
Girl 4- "intha ore veetla stay panra velai ellam vendam.. mudinja vera veedu pathu odidu.."
Athulya mind voice- "ithu veraya?, yesappa.. "
Girl 1- "epadium engalla oruthi than unaku varungala relative, so olunga paathu nadanthuko..", They said and left giving a death glare to her.
Athulya mind voice- "ithunga alumbal jasthiah irukiae.. ethavathu pananume.. panuvom"
Siddhik came within seconds and looked at her. She is in deep thoughts.
Siddhik- "polama? enna ore yosanaiah iruka?"
Athulya- "namma ore veetla thanga koodathame athaan yosichutu irunthen... "
Siddhik- "WHAT??"
Athulya got her consciousness and said, "illa illa, just comedy scene one yosichutu irunthen inaiku program ku.. vanga polam.. deep thinking la irukum disturb pana, ipadi than ethavathu yekkuthappa varum.."
Siddhik looked at her, nodded as no and they went home. She changed her dress and Siddhik himself dropped her in the FM station. This is the first day, she is going to speak as sagi in the diary.. Everything is already prepared. She went in and started.
Program- "saga nu irukura ella idathulaium sagi nu maathiyachu.. neenga ipo just itha apadiye padicha pothum... all the best and rock it..".. Athulya muttered thanks and entered.
She positioned herself before the mike and stared at the paper once. No doubt that she is going to read his lines with emotions.
Athulya- " vanakkam makkalae naama inaiju irupithu 106.4, hello fm il, naan ungal sagi, diary nigalchiyil... inaiku namma nigalchiyin nanbar 'kadhalil kadhalan' oda sinthanagaloda thaan intha nigalchiya thodaraporom.. ivara neenga maranthiruka mudaithunu ninaikuren .. apadi oru thakkatha avar sila varushangaluku munnadi namakulla vithachurunthar.. antha nanbaroda sinthainaia silathagala intha nerathula pagirunthukurathula naan rombave santhosapaduren.. vaanga nanbar enna solararunu paakalam..

Athulya finished her recording and returned back to home with Pragyan. Her thoughts are fully filled with Siddhik. The way he introduced her as his wife to everyone in the college is also flashed by her mind. Now she understood his feeling. Once she reached home, she started to wait for Siddhik.
Sujan too came home and the trio started to prepare dinner. Siddhik arrived. Athulya looked at him with a smile. He too smiled at her. Athulya looked at his retiring figure. They all had dinner and dispersed. Siddhik and Athulya too entered their room.
Siddhik- "enna yosichutu iruka? yen ennyaave adikadi paathitu iruka? enna kekanum?"
Athulya- "namma oru reception vaikalama"
Siddhik- "ipova? ivlo naal kalicha? yen ennachu?"
Athulya -"college la naan ungaloda relative nu ninaichukitu irukanga.. naan unga wife thaan nu neriah students ku theriala athaan.."
Siddhik- "enna nadanthuchu?", he looked at her with a concern.
Athulya- "perusa onnum agala.. reception vaikalame nu thonuchu... "
Siddhik- " Ippo poi reception vacha nalla irukaathu Athulya.. unaku ethavathu problem na sollu, naan pathukaren. nee than en wife nu naan solren.."
Athulya- "hmm, college la nadakura singing competition la naan kalanthukatuma?"
Siddhik- "unaku interest iruntha kalanthuko... nee paduratha paaka naan varalama?"
Athulya- "hmm.. vantha enaku konjam bayam illama irukum.. ungaluku free period ah iruntha vaanga..", she started to plan the next thing to do..
