Explanation:
Velu was hungry because he hadn't eaten anything except a few peanuts and jaggery for a long time. Velu was exhausted and had stomach pain as a result of his hunger. When the girl saw Velu's face, she realised he was hungry. The girl asked him to accompany her as no one will come to feed him if he sits here for a long period of time.

Velu felt very hungry
Velu did not respond to the girl. So the girl took her bag, and she started walking. Velu remained seated on the bench, and he was thinking about where to go, whether he wants to follow her or where she will take him. Velu saw the girl was quickly disappearing into the large crowd. Velu had to make a decision soon because he only knew the girl in the vast city, and no one else could provide company for him. Velu needed to make a move before she vanished into the crowd. Finally, Velu decided to go along with the girl.
Immediately, Velu jumped up from the bench and ran behind her. But the girl was not at all turning back to see whether Velu was following him or not.
