When he asks her for her name and where she came from, she walks away without answering his questions.The doctor is intrigued and delves into the details of the patient and finds out the patients names is Vasudeva.

After work, the Doctors tells his friend that the old woman was from his village.He proceeds to a narrate a story from the days of his youth.When the Doctor was merely a young boy he lived in a small village. In that small village lived a wealthy family, Narayana Swamy, his wife Sardamba and their young son, Vasudeva.They were a kind and generous couple who contributed to the welfare of the community.Saradamba, in particular was regarded as pious, religious,generous and also very beautiful.She would sponsor lunch meals for students.Among the students is a boy called Kanakayya, who was also a very good student. Saradamba is very fond of Kanakayya and showers him with love and affection.Kanakayya too is very fond of Saradamaba and does errands around the house for Saradamba, such as giving her foot massages and plucking mangoes from the garden.

One day Kanakayya gets sick.He has a high fever that refuses to break.The village physician, Sri Hari claims its a stubborn viral fever and gives him medicine but there seems to be no immediate relief.Kanakkayas' fever gets worse and he mutters "Saradamba" over and over in a delirious state. Kanakayya's family brings in a doctor,Gopayya who practices alternative medicine.Gopayya claims that its "Dosha gunam", a STD that young men get from having sex with older women.The treatment for Doshagunam is apply the blood extracted from the thigh region of the older woman into the eyes of the young man. Kanakayyas family struggles with this information and word gets out.Narayana Swamy comes to hear of this and starts to suspect his wife.Saradamba too hears of this from Kanakayyas mother and becomes furious.Later, when Narayana Swamy brings this up with his wife it results in a huge quarrel.

Kanakayya gets even worse and Gopayya claims there is no more time to lose.Kanakayyas father approaches Narayana Swamy for Saradamba's blood.Fearing the boys death might result in greater scandal, Narayana Swamy extracts the blood from Saradamba forcefully. Sometime after Gopayya administers the blood to Kanakayya, the boy recovers from the grips of the viral fever.Narayana Swamy upon hearing that Kanakaya is now better, accuses his wife of infidelity and makes her leave the village.Kanakkaya learns of what happened when he recovers but no one is willing to listen to him.

The Doctor asks his friend about his take on the story.The friend replies that there is no way to tell what actually happened but must take into consideration that Kanakayya did get better. perhaps there was an illicit relationship between Kanakkaya and Saradamba.The Doctor counters by saying that it might have merely been a coincidence that Kanakkaya's fever broke after the application of blood.The friend replies that there is no way to conclude this and that the nature of the relationship is only known to two people, Kanakkaya and Saradamaba.

At this point the doctor reveals that he is Kanakkaya and that there was nothing illicit between him and Saradamba.He moved out of his house, went to Madras to become a Doctor and changed his name. The next day the Doctor goes back to the hospital to find the patient in a critical state and Doctor saves his life.He goes out to the place where he saw the old woman in hope she will return.

"Unless you believe in some principles to be true, there can be no peace. The intellect of all those who say "this is all we know, this what there is" is weak and fatigued. Perhaps there is another explanation, another truth, perhaps we don't know it yet!"- Chalam
