'Bava' basically means brother in law, but it can also be translated as bro, buddy and is a common calling among peers.

Though it can also be called romantically.

Library pavilion

Vamsi Niranjan is busy copying the rules while Ved Aryan doing the same as punishment.

He eventually got bored and he crawled to the silent man.

"Bavaa.."
(Bro..)

"..."

He was ignored.

"Chinna bavaa.." He called with tilted head.
(Little bro..)

"..."

"Vamsi bavaa.." He cooed.
(Vamsi bro..)

"..."

"Ranjan.." He raised his voice in frustration.

Vamsi snapped at him in surprise, although it's more like shock.

Ved sighed as he finally he got some reaction from the other.

"Ranjan??" Vamsi knitted his brows in confusion.

"Hehe.. Baundi kadaa.. Nachinda?" Ved asked scratching his nape, grinning widely.
(Hehe.. Isn't it nice.. Do you like it?)

Vamsi kept silent for a few moments and then nodded quietly.

"Haha.. Nak telsu.. Ippudu nuv kuda nakedaina peru pettu.." He smiled showing his bunny teeth.
(Haha.. I know you'll like it.. Now it's your turn to give me a pet name.)

Vamsi nodded and thought for a few seconds.
While, Ved was staring curiously, wondering what will he choose.

"Vian"

"Uhh??"

"Vi. an." Vamsi repeated stressing the syllables.

Ved was speechless for a while. Thinking about what it can mean.

He finally gave up and decided to ask the other man.

"Adem peru!! Dani artham entasalu!!!" He asked scratching his head.
(What kind of name is it!! What does it even mean!!!)

"Vian ante chalakitanam." He replied calmly.
"Vian means energetic."

Ved felt his head spin.

"E-em bhasha adi??" He asked slowly.
(W-what language is it??)

"Samskrutam" The other replied without lifting his head from the book.
(Sanskrit)

"Ah!?!?"

He was speechless for the nth time that day.

Later that night

Ved was thinking about the name Vamsi gave him.

"Muddu peru samskrutam lo evaru pedataru!! Nuvvu mamulodivi kadu!!"
(Who chooses pet name from Sanskrit!! You're really something!! )

He murmured to himself as he chuckled shaking his head.

Meanwhile in Vamsi's room

He was writing something on a piece of paper.

"Payaninchi vachina o viyanama
Ranjanudayye nee raaka tho
Ee Niranjanudu
Nee Ranjanudu"

(Oh.. Energy wave who travelled from afar
I'm pleased by your visit
This sage who is not impressed by the worldly pleasures
Is pleased by you and I'm yours to please.)

He caressed the paper fondly and placed it inside the wardrobe under the cloths.

His heart strangely felt content.
