 It asked, “Are you a real whale or the whale in my dream?”
The whale did not understand anything.  It said, “What is the meaning of ‘Whale in dream?’
Kubuk said, “I was talking about this now only.  I don’t know how to explain it to you.  If l sleep, a thing will come in my mind.  Do you know the meaning of the word ‘THING’ l uttered now?  ln that thing, you’ll come, why, humans will also come.”
The whale said, “Lie.  No one can get me into dream,” in an angry voice.
Kubuk said, laughing, “lt is not a getting thing.  If you come in dream, it’ll be great fun.”
The whale said, “You do not know me and are you talking fun in front of me?”
Soon, Kubuk said angrily, “What for me if you are a big whale?  I have seen a thousands of whale, what will you do?”
The whale said confused, “What means saw?”
Kubuk said, “ln dreams, one who is sleeping can see anyone in his dreams.”
The whale said, “Then can l see a human under the sea in my dreams too?”
Kubuk said, “Certainly.  Why not!”
The whale said, “That’s why the men from the ship is trying to catch me the place l am going.  What can I do for avoiding me in the dream?”
Kubuk said, “No one can avoid you from their dreams.”
The whale was afraid and astonished.
It said, “ls dream a horror?”
Kubuk said, laughing, “No need of becoming afraid.  It is just like a game.”
The whale asked, “How many people will come in the dream?”
Kubuk said, “Two people can come.  Thousands of people will also come.”
The whale asked nervously, “What will they do in dream?”
Kubuk said, laughing, “l itself had slapped and chased away a whale in my dream.  Why, a shark, a sea cow, a ship or someone or something also cannot harm me in my dream.”
The whale said, “l cannot believe it.  How did dream come to you?”

81.The Hindu news.



            I have translated a book.  The Hindu news paper was the last of all the interviews and articles I came in.  We thought that the news paper won’t come anymore.  But it did not happen.  At last of all, an author called Akila came from The Hindu news paper.  She came with a note book to interview me.  She first asked what is my name.  Then she asked which class I’m studying in.  Then she asked how the interest came for me to translate the book. “First, l translated a Panchatantra story called ‘The blue colored fox.  The story was like a fox doused in blue die.  I translated that story from my Tamil reader.  My father said that, it was nice.  My father then said me to translate S.Ramakrishnan’s book called Kaal Mulaitha Kathaikal.  It was a collection of small, children’s stories.”
                 She noted it down.  Then I said, “When I went to my native place, Kanyakumari, l took the original book, my note book and pencil with me.  in 15 days, l translated 20 stories.  After six months, I finished translating the whole story book.  It was released on March this year.  My translation was named ‘Nothing but water’.  It was released by Director Balu Mahendra.  I got several awards for this translation, including the ‘Nalli Thaisai Ettum Award’.  I know to read and write Malayalam, Tamil, Hindi, Sanskrit and English.”
                 Then I said that I had a blog too.  So, Akila said that she also had a blog.  Then, I straight away went to my father’s laptop to see if she really had a blog.  When I searched, she really had a blog.  Then Akila told me to read her blog.  She said that she would also read my blog.  Then she took some photos of me and went away.

85.Kathai kambalam - Part VII


                        
Kubuk said, “That’s what is dream.  If l see a dream, you’ll come there by yourself.”
The oyster became confused.  It said, “How will l come in someone’s dream without taking my permission?”
Kubuk laughed and said, “Can you understand what is dream?”
The oyster said, “Dream means… dream only.”
Kubuk said, “That is the matter.  When l’m sleeping, you will come in my dream.”
The oyster became confused again.  It said, “For seeing a dream, should l be asleep or awake?”
Kubuk said, “l don’t care all about that.  the dream will come when l’m asleep only.”
The oyster asked, ”When you’re asleep, will all the awake things will come in your mind?”
Kubuk said, “Keep it like that itself.”
The oyster asked, “lf l come awake in your dream, what will happen?”
Kubuk said, “Yes.  Nothing is going to happen when you come asleep in my dream also.  When I wake up, you’ll also wake up.”
The oyster said, “How will l wake up when you wake up?”
Kubuk said, “That is only dream.”
The oyster said, “l’m very much confused,” and was about to run.
Kubuk said, “Nothing is there to confuse.  Dream is an easy thing.”
The oyster asked, “When l see a dream, will you come in that?”
Kubuk said, “l’ll come by myself.”
The oyster said frightened, “lf a whale comes in my dream!?”
Kubuk said, “Nothing will happen if a whale comes.”
The oyster asked frightened again, “Who said nothing will happen?”
Kubuk said, “lt cannot do anything in dream.”
“Lie.  A whale will remain like a whale only!,” a cruel voice said.  The oyster ran as fast as it could.  There was a whale in the size of two large and fat elephants in the opposite of Kubuk.
Kubuk was very scared to look at it.  But also it gathered some courage.


                   

84.Kathai kambalam - Part VI


                 
Kubuk said, “Am l blabbering?  You are only becoming afraid of nothing.”
The sea turtle said, “You should not talk one word after this.  I can understand that dream is a very bad thing from your talk itself.  If l think of that, l’ll die of becoming afraid.”
Kubuk scolded the sea turtle, “For remaining like an idiot, you better die”, and went away.
The sea turtle pulled its head inside the shell and started to become inactive.  Purposefully, Kubuk shouted, “See if the dream comes and holds your neck.”
There was no movement in the sea turtle.  Kubuk thought, “Oh!  What is this?  No one knows about dream”, and swam to the whale’s house to ask if it knows about dream alone and brave.  On the way it met an oyster.  The oyster asked, “Brother, whom are you going to meet?”
Kubuk said, being irritated, “l’ll go anywhere!  What for you?”
For that, the oyster replied, “In this path, there are a huge number of whales.  If one sees you, it will eat you like a lollipop.  That why l asked.”
Kubuk said, “l am not scared of all that.  do you know anything about dream?”
The oyster asked, “Who is dream?  Is he your friend?”
Kubuk said, “It is not my friend or enemy.  Dream means dream only.  That’ll be very nice.”
The oyster said, “Then give me some to eat.  I’ll eat and say.”
Kubuk said, “lt is not a chocolate to eat.”
The oyster said, “Then what’s that?”
Kubuk said, “Dream means dream only!”
The oyster asked, “Like whom will the dream be?”
Kubuk said, “Dream will be…. like you too.  Not like you, you itself.”
The oyster asked, “How can l come in dream?”

83.Kathai kambalam - Part V


               
The sea turtle’s house was in a slanting way.  That place was dirty with black colored dirty things.  That sea turtle was the oldest in the sea and it makes freaking noises like “sss… kkk… sss…” 
Kubuk shook the sea turtles nose saying, “Turtle grandpa, turtle grandpa!  Wake up!”
The sea turtle said in a weak voice, “Say what is the matter.”
Kubuk, “Grandpa, l’m here.  Thippi’s son.”
The sea turtle said without opening its eyes, “l saw when you came itself.”
Kubuk asked, “You don’t even open your.  Then how will you see?”  
The sea turtle said, “It had become ten years when my both eyes stuck.  But also no damage in that.  I can see everything with my eyes closed.  I can go anywhere outside as I have leg pain.  Your father is my friend, you know?”
Kubuk asked to the sea turtle, “Turtle grandpa, do you know anything about dream?”
The sea turtle asked, “What are you blabbering like human beings?  Did you go at the side of the sea?”   
Kubuk said, “No, grandpa.  Do you know anything about dream or not?”
The sea turtle said, “It is like known also.  It is like unknown also.  Is the dream coming to catch you and eat you?”
Kubuk said, “No, grandpa.  Dream is a thing.  I don’t know how to say the meaning.  Dream means dream only.”
The sea turtle said frightened, “You are speaking just like human beings.  First say to your mother to buy good medicines to cure this habit or you will loose your intelligence.”
Kubuk said, “Oh, grandpa!  You cannot understand what l’m saying.  Now you’re closing your eyes and seeing, aren’t you?  Like that, when we close our eyes, we can see it.  When we open our eyes, we cannot see it.”
The sea turtle said, “How can it go?  Now if I open my eyes, you will be there, won’t you?”
Kubuk asked, “lf l and this sea vanishes, how will it be?”
“Oh, my god!  Don’t talk about that.  l’m very scared.  I cannot think myself if this sea vanishes.  Your intelligence has damaged by hurting it when you hit some where.  That’s why you are blabbering some thing” , the sea turtle said shivering.

82.Kathai kambalam - Part IV


 
Tilapia said, “The dream will not come for me.  I should somehow join in fight school.  That is the only worry.  that is why I am making my body fit.
Kubuk asked again, “Then you don’t know what is dream, eh?”
Tilapia said, ”I don’t know what color the dream will be and what is the taste of dream also.”  
 Kubuk said, “Get lost, you idiot!  You don’t know anything other than eating and sleeping”, and went swimming to ask others that they see dreams.
Kubuk thought that the seahorses would certainly know and went near the seahorses’ house.  The seahorses were swimming up and down.  Kubuk stopped a seahorse and asked, “Brother, did you see any dreams in your life?” 
The seahorse said, “Come with me.  I’ll tell you”, and went to the level of the sea.  In the midway, the seahorse started coming down.
Kubuk asked again, “Brother, did you see any dreams in your life?”
The seahorse said thinking, “Dream?  I have heard someone say about it.”
Kubuk said, “My dream was like I went to the sea and captured two humans from the land.”
The seahorse nervously said running here and there, “What!  Humans?  Where?  Where?”  Kubuk said, “Humans won’t come real in dreams.”  But also, the scared seahorse hiding somewhere screamed, “Run everybody, run!  Humans are coming inside the sea to capture us!”
Kubuk thought, “Huh!  This is also foolish”, and went to the sea turtle’s house to ask weather it sees any dreams.

80.Kathai kambalam - Part III



Mother said, “There is nothing meaning dream.  Don’t lie.”
Kubuk said, “l read about it in a story book.  It itself came in my mind.  You’re only saying lie, not me.  You cannot understand what I’m saying.  Hereafter I won’t talk about dream to you.”
Mother said, “I should not leave you alone in the house.  You have become bad.”
Kubuk went all alone angrily.  Its elder sister came and asked what is the meaning of dream.
Kubuk said, “l won’t say to you.”
Elder sister said, “You’re not saying because l’ll identify your lie easily.”
Kubuk said, “No.  If I say to you, you’ll also not trust me.”
Elder sister said, “Then say like trusting you.”
Kubuk said, “When we start to sleep, dream will come on its own.”
Elder sister, “How do you know that it is dream?”
Kubuk said, “l read it in a book.”
Elder sister, “How can you see what is happening when you’re sleeping?”
Kubuk said, “I don’t know!  But it wiII come.”
Elder sister said, “Get lost, you liar”, and went away.
Kubuk thought, “No one is understanding my dream”, and went to the playground.
It went searching for its friend tilapia as it wanted to know that every baby fishes see dreams.  Tilapia was doing hard physical exercise.  When he saw Kubuk, he said, “What friend?  If you exercise and make your body fit, you can join in the wrestling match conducted inside the sea, no?” 
Kubuk asked to tilapia, “Tilapia, you saw any dreams in your life?”, saying that it cannot join in the wrestling match.
Tilapia asked without understanding anything, “What is the meaning of dream?”
Kubuk did not know how to tell.  It said, “The meaning of dream is we see something in dream, but if open our eyes and see, that thing will not be there.”
Tilapia asked, “What is the name of it you said?”
Kubuk said, “DREAM.”
Tilapia asked, “Who taught you this?”
Kubuk said, ”Know one taught me.  I myself know.”

79.Kathai kambalam - Part II


  
Kubuk  doesn’t like that game.  It dreams about something on the day which it is alone.  It dreamt that, ”Kubuk went out of the sea straight away to the land.  It brought two human beings from the land to the sea.  The human beings begged to leave them alone.  Kubuk said that, “I’ll not leave you.  How much trouble you’re giving us?  Today’s minimum is at least your ear.”  They begged and begged.  ”How many days we panicked?  You didn’t even leave us”, Kubuk said these words and started biting the humans’ noses.  The humans loud scream woke up Kubuk.          
Kubuk thought, “Wow!  What a nice dream!”, and went to say to its mother.
The humans caught Kubuk’s father and killed it.  So, it had a mother and only one elder sister.
Kubuk’s mother told, “Dream?  What is that?  What are you blabbering? Don’t imagine like that reading bad story books.”
Kubuk said, “No, mom.  Really I saw it.”       
Mother said, “Show me what you saw.  Then only I’ll trust.”
Kubuk said, “Only l can see my dream.”
Mother said, “l can see a big sea myself.  Then how come I cannot see your dream?  Why are you lying to me?”
Kubuk said, “No, mom.  I really saw a dream.”
Mother said, “What is mean by dream?  Say it first and go!”
Kubuk said, “The things that won’t happen, will happen.  That is only dream.”
Mother said, “What is mean by won’t happen?”
Kubuk said, “Example, “I went to the land and brought two human beings inside the sea.”
Mother shouted, ”Oh!  Why is your brain going zig - zag?  How much time should I say to not think about going to the land?  From where are you learning all these bad things?”
Kubuk said, “l did not learn, mom.  The dream itself came for me.”
Mother said, ”l hate the word ‘DREAM’.”
Kubuk asked, "Mom, why am I dreaming?”
                
     

78.Kathai kambalam - Part I

                                                                                             Why am I dreaming?
There was a baby fish called Kubuk in the east side of the sea.  The principal of the sea school did not allow Kubuk to study as he was very tiny.  So, Kubuk go to the nearby crab’s house, borrow a story book, come home and read it on its own.  Kubuk’s elder sister and mother go to a place called Sippi Thattu to help people peel the skin of peanuts.  When they are returning home, they bring something to eat.  So, the full day, Kubuk remain all alone.
There are three schools under the sea.  One school’s name is food school.  There the people teach what to eat, what to not eat and about health. 
Baby fishes, turtles, seahorses, octopuses, why, one or two baby whales also come here to study.  An old tortoise is the teacher of this school.  He can see only half of the earth.  If he is sleepy, he’ll forget the class and sleep.  The class studies on the day he wakes up.  Till that, the students play freely.
The another school’s name is fighting school.  There they teach how to catch an animal, or if an animal is coming to catch us, how to escape, who is the enemy, what he is planning to do with us, etc.  There, baby fishes are not allowed to study here.  It is very difficult to get seat hear.
The sea living things certainly send their children to study hear.  Here, half of the time, the teacher teaches.  Half of the time only practice.  Every baby fishes love to join here.  A sea cow was the teacher of this school.  That was a very kind animal.  It is a vegetarian animal inside the sea that eats only plants.  It is called Aavuliyaa ( In Tamil ).  It looks like a tall, fat elephant.  It does not get angry or scold someone.  It’ll remain quiet all the time. 
The third school is about humans.  The teach lessons like why the humans come to seas, how to escape from fishermen, if caught in a fisher man’s net, how to act or how to attack humans and escape.  This school is the most difficult of the three under the sea.  How much ever the students study, the fail in the examination.  Only little children are studying in this school.
This school’s teacher is a shark.  That is a torenose shark because, it fought like this and the enemy tore its nose.  So, the shark always scold humans angrily.  The animals who studied in this school present their thoughts of humans.
Instead of these three schools, there is a big playground under the sea.  There baby fishes, crabs and oysters play their favorite game “Catch and catch”, running and jumping, day and night.  The baby fishes like the game that who is not shaking for longer time.  There are many races in that game.  The baby fishes play this game the whole day.       
  
         
  

76.The goose.

                William sat on his house's stair case.  There was a goose passing by.  William thought that the goose would make a tasty meal.  So, he took a sharp knife with him to kill the goose.  The goose was not that easy to catch.  The goose ran away when William tried to catch it.  William managed to corner the goose among some bushes but it decided to fight back.  There was a big fight inside the bushes.  At last, the goose won the fight.  It bit William in many places and a part of William's shorts.  So, an ashamed William had a fish as a combination for the afternoon meal.  The goose was nothing but trouble.  It is better to leave it alone.

70. The dog



               Once, two naughty boys, Saral and Mrithul were on their ways back home when they saw a dog sleeping under a tree.  It was tied to the tree with a chain.  The naughty boys planned to trick the dog.  Saral threw many sharp things on the dog while Mrithul made silly jokes and faces.  With the disturbances, the dog woke up and started pouncing on the two boys.  However, the chain could not break and the dog could not hurt the two boys.  They moved a little back.  The dog tried to break the chain, but it could not do so.  It tried harder and harder and at last, the chain snapped and the dog ran to catch them.  The laughing boys turned afraid and ran for their lives.  For their luck, there was a tree nearby.  Both climbed into the tree.  The dog was barking at them till it was tired enough to get away.

                                 Mughil was a daredevil on his motorcycle.  He drove it very fast.  He bent his knees in every corner like the riders shown in T.V. till his knee scratches the road.  He wore a safety-helmet and slippers, which were not safe for the feet.  Mughil would not mind if there are any vehicles or walkers infront of him, he would just dash off.  Some times, an accident occurs.  It would kill many walkers or people inside the vehicles.  But, he would somehow manage to escape from the accidents.  Once, there were many pits in the road.  So, when Mughil tried to bend in one corner, his motorcycle fell into a pit.  The vehicle dashed away by its own and Mughil dashed from the motorcycle and bashed into a tree.  That was the end of Mughil.  Today also near his grave, the thing left is a marker which means, a sign for reckless drivers like Mughil.

58. Wet for nothing.



                            Rahul was a greedy boy.  One day, when he was taking his evening stroll, he saw a ripe mango hanging from a mango tree.  So, he got hold of the branch but could not reach the mango.  So, he moved some more front.  The branch wasn't able to hold on Rahul's weight.  The branch broke and he fell into the river below.  He was able to cope with the river, as the water was not too deep.  When he lifted the mango from the river, he found that the ripe mango was full of worms.  Rahul learnt a lesson,"Do not be greedy." 

57. Mysskin uncle's visit.



                                  I said that my 9th birthday ended up.  But that did not really end up.  That night, when I and my father returned back from leaving Nutty to her house, Mysskin uncle phoned my father soon and he came to my house.  We greeted him.  He had Sher Lock Holmes Volume 1 and 2 with him.  He wished me Happy Birthday and gave me the books.  He also gave some hints how to read it easily.  He sat in our sofa and started talking with my father while I brought potato chips for them to eat.  Then he talked with my father for 2 hours and left.  That was the best birthday I've ever celebrated.

55.My birthday party.



                            Today was my birthday.  Todays date was 5-10-2013.  All my friends came.  First, my friend called Prarthana came.  She phoned and asked me,"Chaitu, I came to Balamuthu krishnan street.  Where's your house", coming in right front of my house.  I shouted to her from the balcony of 1st floor, but she did not hear.  So, I went down and invited her.  Her grand pa wished me happy birthday and we came up.  Prarthana and her grandma came.

                             She gave me 2 books as a gift- one is Diary of a Wimpy Kid (The third wheel.) and the other one is the magazine of the book TINKLE.  Then her grandma said that she's going to a temple.  She waved goodbye to us and went.


                             Prarthana and me played skipping for sometime.  It was a very comedy scene.  I skipped continuously for 10 counts.  But what Prarthana did is, she told that she knew to skip very well and I said skip.

                            When she skipped each time, the skipping rope caught her leg and she couldn't skip.  I asked,"Is this what you said as skipping?"  She laughed.  We went inside and she asked for board games.  I took out the Ludo pad from its cover, took out the coins but couldn't find the dice.

                              Instead of the dice, what I did is, tore 6 pieces of paper, wrote 1 in one paper, 2 in the second paper and so on, folded it into smaller pieces and started the game.

                              We kept on putting, but, 6th number did not come.  After playing 5 games, Prarthana took 6th paper and she went on playing.  But I did not get the number 6.

                              For my good luck, my another friend called Vishwa Priya came.  She came with glitter pens as a gift.  She said,"Don't show it to Teju.  Other wise, she'll cry and grab it."  Teju was my sister.  What Vishwa said was correct.  She'll cry and grab the glitter pens.

                               Then my mother said me to change my dress.  I changed my dress and my mother combed my hair.  After that, I put my new earrings, wore my favorite bracelet and wore my 'C' chain.  Then every one asked me for T.V.  I put the T.V. and kept our favorite channel Nick.  In that, our favorite programme Ninja Hattori was running.  That time, my father called me for going to call Natassya (Nutty), Director Mysskin uncle's daughter.  I said to Prarthana` that I'm going to call her and said her to say the message to everyone.

                                On the way, when I was climbing down the stairs, I saw Prarthana's mother & grandma.  We invited them to our house.  Her mother said,"Many More Happy Returns of the Day", and gave me 2 Perk chocolates.  I kept the chocolates in my car and we drove off to call Nutty.

                                 When we reached Nutty's house, on time she came down to the ground floor.  We invited her to our car & we drove off.  On the way, we brought the cake we ordered & bought a knife.

                                 When we reached our house, Prarthana, her mother & her grandma were missing.  I asked my mother ,"Where did they go?"  My mother & Vishwa Priya said,"They went just 1 minute ago."  I thought that she would cry.  Then, we took the cake inside.  Sindhu aunty from ground floor also came with her i-pad.  When she was about to take the photo,  she couldn't find where was the camera.  She gave it to Nutty to find where was the camera.  But, she also couldn't find the camera.  For the good luck, Sindhu aunty had also brought her mobile phone.  

                                 They all sang,"Happy Birthday to you", and I cut my cake.  The cake was round in shape and brown in color.  The candle had the number 9 which means, I was 9 years old.  The cake had the message,"Happy 9th Birthday V.Chaitanya."  We helped ourselves to cut and eat the cake.  My sister said that she was also going to cut the cake along with me.  But she couldn't do it because the candle was in the middle & I had to cut in the side of the candle.  My sister thought that the burning candle would hurt her.

                                  After the cake cutting, we compelled my mother to participate in our game.  The game was "Musical Chairs."  To play the game, there was no music.  So, we asked my father to clap instead of music.  When he suddenly stopped, first itself, Vishwa out.  She went out.  The next time, Nutty was out.  She and Vishwa stood in a separate place and cheered for me.  At last, like the cheering, I
won.

                                  The next game was 'Current Shock."  The game was like there should be 5 players.  They should hold the 4 players' hands.  The catcher should say whom to whom, like suppose the catcher is saying Nutty to me, Nutty should press my hand.  When I get the shock, I should say 'RECEIVED'.  If I say received, the catcher was out.  It was a superb game.

                                  The next game was 'Truth or Dare, Double Dare, Burning House or Situation.'  The game was like the catcher should have a remote like thing to rotate.  The front part of the remote is the question and the back part is the answer.  He/She should rotate it.  Suppose the front part of the remote came to Nutty and the back part to me, Nutty should ask me, "Do you want truth, dare, burning house or situation?"  Truth is if Nutty asks me ,"How many people live in India, I should say the correct answer.  If the answer is correct, I score 1 mark.  If I say dare, if she says me to dance, I should dance.  The next task is double dare which means Nutty should give me two actions, like 1. Dance  2. Sing.  I should choose any one of it, and do the action.  If I do it, I get 2 points, for dare and double dare.  The next task is burning house. This task is Nutty asks me what burning house do you like?.  I can say anything, suppose I say, "My Mathematics teacher shouldn't scold me."  The next task is situation.  Situation is, if someone is troubling you, you should find a situation to control them.  It was one of the best games I've ever played.             
                                   Then it was time to return Vishwa and Nutty to their houses.  On time, Vishwa's father came.  He had his hair cut a little bit.  Vishwa asked, "Why did you cut your hair?"  Vishwa's father replied, "That;s why I did not come up!"  So, my father and Vishwa's father, Nutty and my mother talked for a long time, while I and Vishwa played running race.  I should run till the car parking and return and give pass to Vishwa.  After a while, Vishwa went with her father while I, my father and Nutty got into the car to return her to her house.

                                   Then, my 9th birthday made an end.
