Ashwin woke up to his alarm stretching his arms. He didn't wanna move a muscle but reminding himself he'll get to see and spend time with her today he got up in swift and got ready. He got into his car, switched on his playlist and started driving. After sometime sirikadhey started playing and he can't help the smile that formed in his face, no matter how many times they've sung this song togeather in front of camera his thoughts always goes to the 1st moment this song became special offscreen.
Before 1 year(CWC set)
Ashwin was pacing back and forth in his room really tensed. Rakshan tried starting a convo but he knew better to leave him alone ri8 now. Rakshan left the room and saw his thangam waiting outside.
Rk: inga ennada panra
Sk: avara paakalaam nu vandhen na, avaru mogame sarilla ungalta edhaachu sonnara
Rk: illama vandhadhulendhu moonji kuduthey pesala, tension aave irukaan ne vera edhaachu ketu thitira poraan
Sk: illana na enaku manasu kekala neenga ponga na pesi paakren
Rk: sari da paathuko
He said and left from there
Sivaangi was feeling nervous and worried as she slowly knocked on his door. She could only hear a hmm kind of response and she opened the door to see ashwin sitting on his bed with his head held down.
Sk: Ashwin neenga okay va
Ashwin suddenly looked up hearing her voice. She looked dazzling in her yellow saree type dress with a red bindhi. All the while ashwin has only seen a cute little innocent girl and today was the 1st time he noticed a beautiful women in her. The color complimented her complexion and the dress appreciated her curves. Shaking his thoughts away he simply nodded to her question. She looked worried, let out a sigh and just sat beside him.
Sk: neenga sollamaatinganu theriyum but whatever it is it's going to be okay
She said gently touching my hands. Does this girl know the effect just her presence can bring. I suddenly felt a lot better, like calm after the storm just by her simple gesture. I gave her a faint smile and looked into her eyes. She turned away after a while with her cheeks reddening and I smirked within myself sensing the effect I had on her.
Ak: na thothuruvenonu bayama iruku sivaangi
He said looking straight ahead
Sk: iniki celebration round thaan tension aagathinga
Ak: na life pathi pesren 
I said and turned to her side to see her eyes widening at my confession
Sk: en ipdilla pesuringa nethu thaana 1M celebrate panninga ennachu thidirnu
Ak: nethu oru director paaka poirundhen oru remake movie pannanum nu aasa antha movie ku lead audition attend panni select kooda aaiten aana producer vandha apram enna sonnan theriyuma, oru cooking show la 4 episode la nalla per eduthu 4 fans vantaanganna hero aairamudiyuma Intha fame la verum temporary thaan romba aasaya valathukaadha nu enna anupchitaanga.
He knew his walls were breaking down and he would burst out any minute but it felt ri8 amd easy to share with her.
Ak: iniki morning thaan therinjadu they gave that movie to a starkid who dint even attend any audition nu
Tears started falling as I was beyond hurt hearing that and I closed my eyes using both hands.
Sivaangi took my hands and held it tightly within her small ones. I looked upto her and noticed tears in her eyes and felt heavy how genuine she would be to take my pain as hers. She gripped my hands hard and said
Sk: hope vitraathinga ashwin, neenga intha opourtunity um miss aairuche nu feel panringa aana enaku vera etho perusa ungalukkaga amaiyum nu thonuthu, enga amma solluvanga kadavul oru vishayatha thalli podraaru na namma edhirpaatha thoda perusa namakku thara poraaru nu
I let out a short laugh saying
Ak: apo ithuvum kadavul setting thaan nu soldriya
Sk: ellame avar setting thaan, ena periya star kid uh avangalukku ungaluku irukura fan base irukuma, ila unga talent la paadhiyachu irukuma
Free ya vidunga neenga vena paarunga indha show mudiyaradhukulla neenga atleast 2 movies sign pannirupinga
Just hearing those words from her made my heart smile, I loosened her grip from my hands and now held hers within mine.
Ak: thnx ma, ipo feeling much better
Sk: neenga enta share panningale athey pothum, epovaachu ipdi irundhuchuna enta sollunga sariya, thaniya ullukulle vachu kastha padathinga
Ak: ok madam, mannar kattalai padiye aagatum
I said bowing my heads and she gave me her contagious laugh. She took out her phone and headphones plugged them and gave me one
Sk: konjam unga mood eh maathalaam pottukonga ethaachu paatu keklaam she said giving me one end. I shrugged and wore it in one ear moving close to her. I dint realise the closeness until she looked up at me, it was the 1st time we were being that close and being any other circumstance I would have definitely moved away but ri8 now I felt like I needed it. I was amused at how hard she was trying to act normal to ease the tension by asking me for song suggestions and I couldn't help but chuckle at her cute antics. Finally she settled on sirikadhey song and was humming along. Her messy hair, her soft eyes, her dancing jhumkas, her teasing dimples along with the bgm was making me go crazy. I took a deep breath and I froze when she turned towards me. She raised her eyebrows asking if I was okay, I gently removed the earphones without taking my eyes from her and said
Ak: ne paadu
To say she was surprised was the least because I myself couldn't beleive my actions, she gave me a shy smile, something only I get to see. I always liked that she was this easy going girl filled with grace for every other people  but she always shows her shy woman side to me. Without taking her eyes off me she started
"Manam vittu unmai mattum unnodu pesida vendun
Ne ketkum kadhalai alli un meedhu poosida vendum
Naan kaanum otrai kanavai un kaadhil olarida vendum
Enai meeri unnidam mayangum ennai naan thaduthida"
I would have normally averted my gaze but this time our eyes were just stuck on eachother. She turned and looked down, trying to cover her face and I chuckled to myself looking at her blushing.
Ak: super ma, semaya irundhuchu
Sk: thnx ashwineey
Ak: ashwineeyyy va
I laughed hearing her say that amused that only she can come up with such things
Sk: ne ipdi sirichitu irundha evlo nallaruku theriyuma, inimel ethaachuna enta share pannuvennu promise pannunga
She asked looking at me intently
Ak: promise ma I placed my hands over hers and held it.

I had a scene which was shot here in my 1st movie and immediately fell in love with this place, as sivu always had a fascination for beaches I brought her here.

7 months back
Sk: enga ashwiney kootitu pora enaku already sema thookam varudhu
She complained as I opened the car door for her to get down.
It was early morning and I knew she would be annoyed but she always does when I ask her for something and that's why I asked her to be ready by 5.30 am. I kept quiet just wearing a smile I took her hands and walked into the beach. The smile she had at that moment was worth everything and she looked at me surprised. We were ri8 at the time of sunrise and the image of her looking angelic just in her track pants and hoodie with her clear morning face under the morning Ray's was going to be etched in my heart 4ver.
Ak: pudichirukka
I asked bending down
She shook her head like she always does in an animated way and I just laughed at her gesture.

Present
Ever since then this has been our own space, away from the world. Public are not allowed as it is a private beach mostly only used for shootings. I managed to get permission by tipping the guy who manages this place now and then so that we could spend some time alone avoiding ppl. All of our outings has always been accompanied with pugazh or rakshan but this is the only place we like to spend for ourselves. The sun started rising and there was still no sign of her. I started getting worried especially after remembering the way she sounded last ni8. I quickly dialled her
Ak: hlo ma enga irukka na reach aaiten
Binni ma: ashwin na amma pesren pa
Ak: amma ava enga
Binni ma: avaluku thidirnu nethu ni8 high fever pa, konjam bayanthuten ipavum fever lit ah iruku thaan, thoongitu iruka
Ak got tensed after hearing this, because she wasn't a person who falls sick often. He worriedly asked
Ak: ma hospital ponningala
Binni ma: illa pa ava appa vera oorla ila
Ipo thaan doctor ku call pannirken varen nu sonnanga
Without wasting any minute ak got into his car and started the engine
Ak: kavalapadathinga ma na ipo odane varen.
He said and cut the call, he pressed the accelerator and sped to check on his rowdy praying she should be alright.
