Scene 1:
R is in class four . She comes back home all sad and feeling bad.
Amma: என்னடா ஆச்சு ?
R: Illa ma i feel very bad today ... you know in school they were talking about being vegetarian. That it is bad to kill things and eat them. Athan i am feeling very bad ... we eat Non--veg sapadu every day ... so i was feeling very bad .
A: இய்யோ ... you are very correct . so from no one you don't eat. You become vegetarian. I will support you in any ways possible.
R: இய்யோ ... I meant you and appa should stop eating meat amma... i never said i want to become veggie ... cha... you never understood me properly ....

Scene 2: ( about 19 years later)
SM: I am going on fast ma from tomorrow. Cos i am going to Iyyappan Koil .. so no more meat and all
R: Oh ok ok .... I will also fast with you pa ..
SM : cha cha ... no need you be yourself ... no issues ma ....
R:(thinks to herself... ok no need to tell him, i shall fast anyways) ... seri pa ... ok ok ... i won't fast and all .. leave it ...
But R has decided to fast with SM until he does it too .....

R realizes that she is not practical and that she is too romantic .... i mean how can she become so involved with someone ... who she is in love with only for 6 months .... that too .... hasn't seen face to face ... only through internet and phone calls .... and she is willing to change so much for what .... what a stupid girl R is ..... starting from amma, appa, to all her friends are saying the same thing .... be realistic ....including SM ..... so .... R why so stupid ? So R thinks .... yeah in this world that is so realistic and practical there is no place for romance or sweet nothings or undying love ...so R does what she knows best ... R shuts down ... .... R shuts up .... R gives up ..... welcome to the Real World R ....
