"Sakthi oru azhaga ponnu ku un number kuduthaen nu vechuko! Ne enna pannuva?" I asked while continuing to repost the stories and mentions of the symposium in my IG.

"Thalaivi! Ponnu ku number kuduthalae ungaluku selai vepen! Azhaga ponnu ku number kuduthirukeengala? Unga paer la namma Medical College oda 50 acre um patta potruven thalaivi!" Sakthi answered back with his sausaged eyes.

"Idhu dhana normal reaction! Apram en avaru apdi react pandraaru?" I asked looking at Ashwin who is giving instructions to the stage decor team.

"Unga look anga pogudho? Andha avaru Ashwin a?" Sakthi mumbled in the lowest voice possible, though Ashwin can't hear us from there.

"Aama da! Oru ponnu ku Ivar number kuduthen! Moonji a thooki vechukitaaru!"

"Thooki vechukitaara? Apo neenga erakki vechirunga?" Sakthi said and broke into a hysterical laughter which stopped abruptly after my glare.

"Seri seri morakkadheenga! Ungaala velila kootitu poi samaadhanam pannanum! Neenga summa instagram la bommai stickers podureenga!" Sakthi nudged my shoulders and snatched my mobile.

"Dei! Avar posts, stories dhan reshare pannitu iruken! Neeyum Pannu," I instructed and tried to grab his hands which were over my head.

"Edhu Ashwin sir Instagram la irukara?"

"Adhuku ne en da ivlo shock aagura?"

"Namma first year exam leave la request kuduthen thalaivi. Next time check pannapo profile ae ila. I thought he had already deactivated his account to focus on his studies." Sakthi took his mobile from his bag and typed something.

"Apdilam avar panlaiye da?" I replied after a thought.

"Inga paarunga! Ipo kooda enaku avar profile varla!" Sakthi showed his mobile and true to his words, Ashwin's profile wasn't found.

"En da unaku matum varla?" I took his mobile and typed Ashwin's id again by myself for double-check.

"Ungaluku innuma purila? Ungaalu enna block pannitaru! Oru handsome paiyan a irundhutu innoru handsome paiyan profile a block pannirukaru paarunga! Avlo jealous en mela!" Sakthi said looking at Ashwin's direction.

I followed his gaze and ended up meeting a pair of dark-brown inquisitive eyes which stared at me for a second holding me under its spell before abruptly breaking the contact.

"Pochu da! Kannala aayiram pesuveenga polaiye?" Sakthi teased me, playfully hitting my shoulder.

"Sivaaaaangggggiii!" Ashwin called me, taking me surprise as he stressed my alphabets more than needed in his base voice.

"Sir!" I immediately rushed to him, crushing Sakthi's right foot in the process of 'standing infront of Ashwin in 1 minute.'

"What about the printouts?" He asked confusing me as I don't remember him instructing about it to me.

He flicked his fingers infront of my eyes and signalled me to the exit with his eye movements.

This time my brain understood his signals and I literally hopped outside the seminar hall after saying, "I will get it sir!"

"Wait!! I'm joining you!" He shouted from behind but I have already exited the room.

"I'm sorry!" We both uttered in unison as soon as we reached the Library.

His already huge eyes widened in surprise, and he gave a sheepish smile, "I shouldn't have got irritated. It's not like you got me into trouble. But you know, that was just- just-"
