One day she receives a letter with a gift from a messenger (a street vendor) who claims he is asked to pass the gift and the letter to the beautiful lady in the house by an unidentified person whom Joe Abeywickrama suspects an adulterous partner of his young wife.
On their Journey to Andiris' place, Vasanthi remembers her past when she meets Joe Abeywickrama after fleeing her village home in Thrikonamduwa, fearing LTTE terrorist attacks.
One day, the messenger who carried gift and the letter identifies Gunapala as the secret person who gave them.
He tells the messenger that he was an army soldier and had rescued Chathurani from LTTE terrorists when she was fleeing her village.
Since that day, he had a huge crush on Chathurani, but unfortunately the colonel (Joe Abeywickrama) took her to his sister's place and married her.
