After lunch , 
" seri veedu lam suthi kaatu da , naanu appa vum saptu varom " Amritha said and Shiva nodded . 
Shakthi followed Shiva and he entered his room , 
She stopped and noticed it , 
She had been to his room long back which was a whole different scenario , 
He smiled and signalled her to come in , 
She looked around happily , noticed even the small details , how meticulously the room was maintained , everything . 
She touched the glass cupboard which had a bunch of medical books and she tilted to see the novels kept aside . 
She sensed his presence too close and turned , 
" Ena achu ? " she asked crossing her arms with a teasing smile .
He smiled and looked at her palms , without any second thought , he slowly grabbed her palm to which she looked amused . 
He took her palms , " I realised that your looks were different for me in this room , from that to this , aniku nee oru paarvai paathutu poniye , avlodaan , ipo evlo maariduchula " he fondled her palms . 
She sensed he was overwhelmed , too happy  and more than that it was too difficult to decipher . 
" Ohww unga fracture apo naa paka vandena anika ? " she questioned . 
" Aniku dan , aniku en student ah vanda , aana ipo paaru " he shook his head smiling at the change .
" Pudikaliya ena ? " she knew she was questioning only to hear from him . 
" un koodave irukanum nu thonudhu " he said looking into her eyes entwining her both palms . 
She was rendered speechless .
" Shivaa " she called out which was almost like a whisper .
He expected an answer from her , 
" enachu " she asked not able to believe his words , 
" Teriyala nijama , suddenly I feel , nee veetuku iniku vanda apram , I am an inch more closer to you " 
" Sandoshathula enamo aiduchi daana ungaluku " she still wanted to hear from him but presented herself unaffected . 
His hold on her softened and it felt he was going to leave her , 
She didnt want that , 
He gently held her palms and threw it on his shoulders and she encircled his neck , 
" naa ipo romba sandoshathula iruken " she declared . 
He shook his head negatively and his hands embraced her waist . 
Now , without any verbal communication , even she understood his turmoil , extreme happiness or whatsoever . 
She wasnt smiling , wasnt serious , but was entrapped into the moment with him . 
He admired how her eyes was still not  able to believe that he only did this . She was beyond shocked .
" Na dan Shakthi romba sandoshama iruken , thala kaal puriyadha sandosham " he smiled .
" Sandoshathula thadumatram teridhu " she now answered for him .
"  enoda emotions eh enanu enaku terila but I really wanna dive deep into the emotions " 
She looked at his eyes alternatively and all he did was to lean forward , 
She closed her eyes in reflux , 
She sensed him closer , the hair on her skin already attained goosebumps from his mere contact which was just an anticipitated contact . 
His nose poked her cheek and she started breathing heavily . 
He leaned and kept his face as close to her right profile of face with closed eyes . 
Him , breathing love could be heard by her ear since he was so close . 
"  car la varum podhu bayama irukunu sonene , adu sir kaga ila , enakaaga " he whispered . 
She tilted her face a little right only to be hit by his stubble , 
" purila " she said a low tone .
" Purinjum puriyadha mari nadikra Shakthi iniku " he replied .
" kekanum nu aasaiya iruku " the decibel was low but the words were as clear as it could be . 
" apdina ketuko , enaku Shakthi nu oru ponna romba pudichiruku , epdi , epo nu enake teriyadhu , na love panrena ila panaliya , ila idan love aah nu teriyadhu enaku , aana romba naala na un kudave irukanum nu thonudhu " he said and the earning tone was enough to rekindle her emotions .
When did the flood of emotions erupt ? 
Why there is suddenly quest and desire ? 
" Shiva " she whispered again . 
" apdi kupdadha d " he said and kept his eyes closed for the entire time .
He didnt dare to open , 
" I love you " she confessed .
He peeled himself to look into her eyes whether the phrase he heard wasnt an hallucination . 
" I love you Shiva " she said sincerely .
He held her cheeks gently and she smiled when his hands felt too cold against her cheeks , 
He kissed her forehead to seal the moment , 
 " Enoda heart ku oru chinna prechanai daan " 
She smiled to listen more ,
" it turns romantic in a second when I am next to you , kaatika mudiyadha edathula irupen , control panitu , smile oda niruthitu " he confessed .
It was more like a fact which was new to her , 
" The more I resisted , the more I felt , 
Idu enoda decision ah ila promise ah nu kooda terila , but you are taking me into a path which is irreversible , into the depths of an unknown emotion , iduku per love na " he looked at her eyes which turned a little mist . 
He continued , " Na othuka maten , its more than love nu thonudhu , Love word chinnadha teridhu Shakthi enaku solla , last time nee en room vanda apo , nee love panranu purinjidhu , ipo ne vandruka , ena enamo thonudhu , aana onnu strong ah solata ? " 
She nodded quickly , 
" next time inda room la enaku nee enoda wife ah varanum nu thonudhu , unaku ok va ? " he asked 
She chuckled in tears and jumped to hug him , 
" ok ve solala " he waited for her reply , 
" doctor aitu vandudren seriya ? " she promised and he couldnt contain his happiness anymore .
He lifted her in utmost joy and elation .
