Chapter 6--A Day to Mark in Life


            The Sun was shining above the head, everyone was about to have their lunch. Like every day, every student went to their corresponding trees for having their lunch. My crew gathered under our Meeting Tree. I knew that Susan would have informed Madhu in prior about my proposal to Jeni.
            “I think we have a good entertainment this day”, Madhu said by opening his tiffin box. All giggled. Susan asked, “Baby what’s in your box?”
            “It is tamarind rice”, Madhu said and was about to take a share for all. Susan held his hand and said, “Today I want you to share this only with me”. I burst into laugh on hearing that. Susan got anger and said in low voice, “I was talking for you IDIOT”. My laugh vanished on seeing her anger.
            “What?” Jeni asked. “I spit out wrong words in anger. Who the hell are you to laugh at me?” Susan turned to me.
            “Sorry”, I said and looked Madhu. He signaled me not to speak more. Susan said, “Baby I was bored in eating roti all time so, give me your lunch we can exchange”.
            Madhu had no choice there, he nodded and extended his tiffin box. Susan restricted and she took a piece and dipped it in a gravy she had aside which is red and embedded with some panner and capsicum. She took that piece to Madhu’s mouth. He took a moment to think what she was doing and he opened his mouth, ate that piece.
            Jeni was enthusiastic, she opened her mouth wide and turned towards Susan and Jeni’s index finger pointed her mouth saying that Jeni need a piece of roti. 
            Susan took a piece and dipped in gravy and she again moved to Madhu. Jeni mouth was open still. When Jeni saw her giving the piece to Madhu, she closed her mouth and turned down. I was angry with Susan at that moment. I hated her the most and I don’t know why she did that. I looked at Susan, she smiled and me and mad a rapid movement with her eyes to Jeni’s direction.
            Then I understood, Susan was doing everything for me and Jeni. I grabbed the box from Susan and took a piece of roti with gravy and extended my hand near Jeni. She looked at roti and me twice then she took it from my hand and ate it with a smile.
            She took some rice in her box and made it like a ball and pierced a piece of potato over it then she gave it to me. Without any thought, I took it from her and ate it. I felt like finishing my meal. I closed my tiffin box and stood up. Jeni asked me, “Why are you closing the box before eating?”
            “I am done with lunch”, I said. “Should not waste the food”, Susan started her lecture over food. She ended up the lecture in a minute. I stayed down, opened my box and finished my lunch in a minute without talking to anyone.
            “I am going”, by saying I stood and packed my box and water bottle. “Why are you in hurry?” Jeni asked. I got air from my mouth but no words.
            “He must go and check what Josphine’s doing”, Susan said by repeating her actions from first and Madhu was following her by spooning her with his lunch.
            I had a plan to go up and I need privacy so I need to escape from them. “I need sometime for my own. Please”, I said.
            “Will he propose her? What do you think about him Jeni?” Madhu asked. I stood there and turned to them. “I request you not to discuss about me further.”
            I was smiling inside whenever they tease Jeni with me indirectly. I started to dream, Madhu and Susan were teasing me with Jeni and we both are teasing back Madhu and Susan. I was not afraid then I knew that Jeni was my girl at that time. I had confidence in me in proposing.
            I went to my desk, took the globe I bought for her. I kept it over the desk and wished to add some hand work over it. I looked all over the globe to find a place where I could add my art over it. The only place left for me is the bottom of the crystal globe.
            I went to Sunil’s place, I searched his bag and got a pen whitener. I took it and wished to write the best line for her. The only word that came to mind was, ‘JENI. I wrote at the bottom. I thought it would attract her the moment I gave her.
            I need to hurry then as Jeni and Susan may come at any time. A spark lit in my heart, I drew a bag a corner, a teddy bear next to it and a globe followed by it in order. Finally I marked that timeline to a doodle of boy and girl in which boy is proposing that girl.
            I thought of adding more work over it, and I didn’t wanted to spoil that gift too so I packed again and hid it inside my bag.
            The moment I was keeping the gift inside my bag Kathir and his troop entered the class. Then every other classmates came one by one. I spotted Jeni and Susan entering the class, Susan was looking outside and waving hands to someone and I knew it was definitely Madhu but Jeni was looking at me, I waved at her.
            Jeni sat next to me as usual. Susan came and sat next to Jeni and pushed her to me. Three persons were sitting at the two sitter bench. Jeni struck between me and Susan.
            “Nithu, Jeni was in anger with me chill her”, Susan said to me. “You avoided her and what I do for that?” I asked
            “Jeni’s anger’s enemy is you. I saw it many times”, Susan said me. I smiled and asked Jeni who is sitting closest to me, “Is It?” Jeni smiled at me at an edge of her lips.
            “Don’t you know why I did like that?” Susan asked me with a high and low mixed tone. I struck a moment, Jeni turned to her for listening what Susan was about to say.
            “I am possessive with Madhu that why I did like that”, Susan said. Jeni bent down and was seeing something on floor. Susan showed some hastening actions to me such that Jeni would not see her. Susan asked me to put my hand over Jeni. On seeing Susan’s signs I shook my head rapidly from left to right saying that I will not do that.
            Jeni’s head raised suddenly. She asked Susan, “Why are you sitting here?” I was shocked on hearing this line from Jeni. Susan’s eyes filled with waters on hearing that. She didn’t showed up anything, I became a reason for a dispute between them. Susan stood and walked rapidly.
            “Why are you speaking like this?” I asked Jeni. She didn’t responded. I made my way faster to Susan, I saw her sitting next to a girl, who never bother what was happening in class she will be studying all time.
            Susan wiped her tears and spoke, “Yes Nithu”.
            “Are you alright?” I asked.
            “Yeah am fine”
            “Your eyes are wet”
            “Don’t worry it will fade away soon”
            “Sorry, I became a reason between you. All you did was for me”
            “It was not only for you it was for her too”, Susan said and wiped her tears.
            “I will say her everything”, I said.
            “No let her scold and have anger on me. But I know when she get to know that I did everything just for fun she will be my friend again that’s our friendship”
            I nodded and walked to my place. “Where were you?” Jeni asked. 
“Jeni, Sue was crying how could I let her and you should not have spoken like that”, I said. While I was speaking Sunil came to me and asked, “Is this mine”, by pointing it to whitener. I said yes and handed over it to him and hurried him to go away.
“Is there any problem?” Sunil asked me on seeing our faces. “No nothing”, I said and put a great big smile. He went back to his place. I turned to Jeni, she was turning some pages randomly in her book. “Ask sorry to Susan she is crying”, I said in a low voice.
She raised her head slowly and turned to me, I say a glowing water in her eyes. “No one sees my tears”, Jeni said and closed her eyelids. The tears came out but she wiped it and again started to see her book.
Jeni LOOK”, I said with bold voice and she turned to me. “What is your problem?” I asked.
“You Susan Madhu and everyone”, she said in a cracking tone.
“What have I done?”
“You ran to Susan on seeing her tears and no one cares for me”, she said with a weep.
“I will be there for you”, I said.
“You are behind Josphine and they are having their own time I will be the one to stand alone”, she said.
I Love You Jeni”, I said without any thought. “I hate you and all”, she said. She was in anger and she could not hear what I am saying. I want to show her the globe that would be solution for all.
            I held her hand and said, “Look if you doesn’t want me to propose Josphine then I won’t”. She turned to me with a laugh and asked by pointing to her, “Will you give your beloved one for this idiot?” I showed a sign of yes with my nod.
            “Really you are my anger killer my boy”, she said and held my hand tighter. “I will be with you my friend”, I said. “What about Josphine?”
            “I will reject her proposal”, I said and wrinkled.
            “Hey! What about the gift you bought for her?” she asked. “You gift it to Kathir”, I said. She laughed and closed her eyes. Tears slide from her eyes, I knew it was tear of joy.
Jeni’s tears dripped over my hand, she freed her hand and wiped it and lost from my hand. She called my name, “Nithu”, I turned and looked her eyes. She gave a pause and said, “Do what you like. Make your life beautiful with Josphine”.
I said, “It is beautiful with you”. She froze a moment and I added, “, Susan and Madhu”. The class went by and it was break. I went out with Jeni along with Susan. I had convinced Jeni that she was more possessive with Madhu so that she behaved in such a way. Jeni told that she was not mad at Susan then.
After break we entered the class, there was a gathering around the teacher’s table and we are excited to see what was there. I made my way by making myself into some random gaps between some boys. I came to the front line.
There was my globe over the desk and everyone was admiring it. Suddenly Kathir took that globe and rotated it in all directions. He spotted the name I wrote. “Jeni”, Kathir said in a low voice. There was a whispering noise at the next moment. “Finally Kathir is going to propose Jeni”, someone’s whisper reached my ears. It made me anger.
Someone from back line said, “Jeni is here”. The next moment, the crowd dispersed. Kathir took that globe in his hand and walked slowly near Jeni. Jeni spotted the globe and she looked at me. I was just standing like an audience.
He gave it to her and said, “I think it was for you and it was not from me”. He put an evil smile over his face. She took it from him and said, “Thanks for your kindness”. While she was getting it from him, the spy boy came into the class along with the teacher.
She could visualize Kathir gifting it to Jeni. Jeni held the globe tighter. Teacher was staring at them, Kathir was advancing himself before her words, “Mam, someone gifted her”.
“Isn’t that you?” teacher asked him. The crowd gathered again when the teacher came in. She took Jeni to the principal room without asking anything. She also said, “Kathir come with me”. The crowd again started the whispers of gossips. A boy said to me, “Another couple for this academic year”.
“What the Fuck!” I got anger. Everyone in that crowd thought Kathir bought it for Jeni and he was there to propose her. I was freaking at that moment. Susan asked, “What would they do to Jeni?” in a low tone.
“The Principal would call Jeni’s dad and mom, then they start to lecture for them”, I said in same volume. “Oh, well then you propose her tomorrow”, she said.
“What the hell are you talking about?” I showed my anger over Susan and continued, “I was the idiot here, and if I gave that gift earlier she might be free from these issues”. Susan tried to start something, I held her words and said, “I am going to the Principal’s Office”.
“Why?”
“I going to reveal myself”
I stepped out of my classroom, Principal’s PA came to class and asked me, “Who is Nithish here?” I said it was me. He said, “Principal wants to meet you”. I added, “Yeah, I’m coming I too in need of meeting him”. He confused a moment and took me to the Principal’s Office.
I entered the Principal’s Office, there were some waiting chairs outside his cabin and there was a table flooded with files all around. I entered the cabin, it was chill and the air conditioner was making an irritating sound. The cabin was painted in green and my principal was sitting at a rolling chair with his hands stretched over the table by holding the globe. My class teacher was sitting on the opposite chair. Jeni and Kathir were standing on the left side of the principal. I joined them by standing on the right side of the principal. He stared at me a moment, “Don’t you have sense to ask permission while entering?” he said with anger and added, “Please get out”.
I almost forgot it was Principal’s cabin, I made my way out and again I opened the door in half, extended half of my body and requested, “May I come in sir?”  
He looked at me with the same look he made before. “Get in, get in”. I walked slowly and stood next to Jeni this time. “Move a little”, principal said. I moved away from Jeni. “No, no come closer and stand next to her”, he said. I stood closer to Jeni with inches between us.
“Mam is this couple looking good?” he asked my class teacher. She spoke nothing. “Not good sir”, Kathir answered. “Hmm, then Nithish move aside”, he said, I moved and he added, “Kathir you come closer with Jeni”. Kathir moved near her, there was a parallel movement. When Kathir moves near Jeni, Jeni moves away from Kathir.
“Kathir you can wait outside”, principal said. Kathir walked out. Principal asked my teacher to stay out too. She asked, “Sir I have a class, can I go for it?”
“Yeah handle your class first”, principal allowed her to go. She thanked him and took her notes over the table and walked away. “I know you guys are involved”, he started. I didn’t know how they get me before I was approaching. I started, “Sir”. “Let me to complete”, he said by interrupting my words. I kept silent.
Jeni was in fear I could see it in her eyes. “Jeni you like Nithish?” he asked in a pleasing tone. She nodded. “Like what?” principal asked. “She is my friend”, I said on the next moment. “Oh friends would share these kind of gifts uh?”
We both were speechless. “Jeni loves you and she gifted you this gift. You kept it in your bag and went off but my spy caught you”, he said with a laugh. He was totally in an invert assumption. I wanted to tell him that I bought it for her. “Sir actually that was my gift”, I started.
“Yeah it is what I am saying it is for you”, he said, laughed and added, “I too got many gifts like you in my school days”. I and Jeni looked at each other’s face a moment and turned to Principal. “I should take necessary actions on you”.
I wanted to say that Jeni knew nothing about it and it was me who is going to propose. Jeni spoke, “Sir, I love Nithish but he doesn’t loves me. I bought this gift for him, he said it is unfair and he accepted it from me not for the sake of acceptance. He said that he would keep for the sake of friendship”.
What she was telling? She too joined that dumb principal and talking something irrelevant.  According to her, I was about to propose Josphine but she totally changed it. I could not answer anything at that moment if I tried to make up anything, Principal will not be believing with those words. So, I kept my mouth shut.
Jeni handled the situation in right way. “Sir, Nithish said it is not the right time for us and asked me to wait. I think he gave the counsel that you would give. I am sorry for bringing this thing to you sir”, she said and turned to me, “Sorry Nithu we will be friends as before as you said”.
Principal called me near, I stepped slowly. He held my hand and gave a hand shake. He said, “I am proud of you my child. What is your grade?”
“A”, I said in a low voice. “Studies support your life but Character lead your life”, he said by tapping my shoulders. I was completely speechless then. He said, “Jeni you got a good friend stick around and be a good girl”. She nodded. He asked us to leave. I took some steps, and I turned to him, “Sir, that gift”. He gave a staring look. “Please keep give me. It is my token of friendship now”. He smiled and asked me to collect it after completing my schoolings.
            “Come”, Jeni hurried me. We came out of the cabin and walked to our class. “Why the hell you said like that to him?” I asked Jeni. “Do you want Josphine here and her parents too”, she said.
            I stopped and asked, “Why are you involving yourself in this?” She stood a moment, “Keep walking and speak”, she said and walked. I caught her speed and asked again.
            “Look Nithish if it was you and me, then my parents know about you and your mom know about me. So, there will not be any further issues. Just think if Josphine’s parents and your parents came up there will be a mess creating up”, she ended her speech.
            “Look Jeni it’s unfair, everyone think Kathir proposed you”, I said.
“Idiot, he is the one who took that globe from your bag”, she said.
“How you know?”
“When Principal called me and him, he told principal that he saw this in your bag”
By speaking we reached our class. The whole class was turned their attention from teacher to us. We entered the class and we sat at the same bench together. Gossips started at that moment and fell down next minute.
I caught Susan looking at us. She talked via actions and asked, “What happened?” I asked her wait by action. She asked me to call Jeni. I said, “Jeni Sue calls you”. Jeni turned to Susan and they were talking about 5 minutes in actions, I understood nothing and I turned to board and watched the math on the board just by eyes.
The school ended, Madhu hurried to our class. He ran to me and said, “Dude be confident don’t mess the thing up with your blabbering mouth speak the words clearly, understand?”
I stared at him a moment. He asked, “Why are you starting at me idiot? Go ahead”. I explained him what happened at principal’s office. “Didn’t they call your parents?” he asked.
Susan and Jeni were discussing something inside the class. “Madhu call Susan out, I need to talk with Jeni”, I said. Madhu nodded. He shouted, “SUEEEEE”. Susan asked him to wait a minute by raising her fore finger.
I didn’t had a minute so I rushed into the class. Susan and Jeni were standing opposite to each other. Susan was in the direction facing me. Susan pointed to me and Jeni turned to me. I was standing straight to her now in opposite. Jeni’s eyelevel equals my nose, her eyeballs rolled above and met my eyes. “What?” she asked without a blink. “I am sorry”, I said and my eyelids too in frozen state.
“For?”
“Everything”
“So”
“The gift was gone”.
“Yeah Josphine will understand”, still her eyes didn’t blinked and mine too.
“Are you still acting out?” I asked.
“As you are”, said with a non-blinking smile.
“Am I acting?”
“Yes you are”, her smile and eyes continued.
“So?” I raised my left eyebrow.
“You love me”
“Yes, I am what about you?” dropped by raised eyebrow.
“Maybe” she said and blinked and turned to other side. I closed my eyes and her eyes comes into my eyes looking into me.
“Hug me if you yes or push me if no”, I said with my closing eyes. The next moment I said, someone pulled me from back and I got slipped and fell over the floor. It was Kathir.
“Sir we are friends, sir”, he imitated in a girly voice and anger laugh. “He may be a dumb ass to trust you idiots but not me”.
He neared Jeni and asked, “I bought you an expensive gift and proposed you”, by the time he was saying I stood up. He continued, “You rejected me but you love this freaking nerd”, he turned and punched on my face. I turned to look at Madhu he was held by two boys those who fought with him that day and he was jostling with those boys.
Kathir was huge and of absolute strength. I wanted to hurt him, I didn’t stood up. I made a kick at his back leg with the maximum force I can. He stumbled and fell down, with anger he wanted to give back to me. He stood and raised his hand to beat me. Jeni grabbed an Oxford Dictionary nearby and threw it over Kathir’s head. Kathir was at the peak of his anger.
He held his hand over his back head and kicked me over my thighs harder. Turned to Jeni with his hand at back head. I extended my left leg between his legs, he got slipped and fell down at the legs of Jeni. When he fell at the legs of Jeni, a group of girls entered the class accidentally. They started to laugh at Kathir. One of the girls exclaimed, “What a girl Jeni is!”
I stood up and taped my dress meantime, Susan and Jeni ran from the place they are standing. Susan took the same dictionary Jeni threw at Kathir. Susan stretched her arm to her extent and back and threw it towards those boys holding Madhu. Those boys freed him in the fear of getting hurt. Susan action was good but her aim got missed and it hurt Madhu’s fore head.
“Hurray, credits to me I freed my boy”, Madhu held his hand over his back and walked slowly near Susan. He congratulated her for throwing the dictionary. I and Jeni burst into laughs. Jeni held her arm around my neck. Those girls nearby shouted in same tone, “Oh-ho”.
Kathir made rapid moves and pushed some desk nearby, made rapid noises. He could have beat me that time. He just grabbed me and pushed me towards the group of girls standing.
They grabbed me, “My Nithish”, Jeni ran to me and pull me from them. Everyone laughed, “Don’t speak any words what happened here”, I said to the girls standing in group. “We never speak about Jeni saying ‘My NITHISH’”, a girl said and laughed. “No I meant everything happened this evening, Please”, I requested. They nodded.
All left that place, only four of us were standing. Susan took my hand and twisted it with Jeni’s hand. “Jeni this is why we acted odd this morning”, Susan said. Jeni hugged her with the other hand and I opened my other hand for Madhu. He gave a gentle dash to me and hugged me. All four of us were connected with each hand and the bonds of love and friendship.
“I need to go to out”, Jeni said. “Let’s go tomorrow”, Susan said.
“I need to go with my Nithish”, she said and grabbed my arm with both hands by putting a cheerful smile. I was happy to see my naughty, cutie, little Jeni. “Then you guys can go”, Susan said. I requested, “Please, please, for us please, it was our first outing”.
“Haan”, Susan opened her wide mouth and continued, “Do you think, I haven’t seen you guys flirting each other when I was in fight with Madhu”.
“Have you seen it?” Jeni said and gave a tongue out expression. “I haven’t noticed you”, Madhu said.
“How will you see us when you are busy lying with Susan”, I added a sparkle for fight between Susan and Madhu.
“Lie?” Susan got anger. “No, no he was lying about lying”, he hurried with words in seconds. “What you try to mean?” Susan got confused a moment. “Look all he need is that we need to accompany him and Jeni, why can’t we go?”
“Ramasamy Anna will be coming, Jeni we will go other day”, Susan said. “I know that’s why I asked him to come to the same food stall”, Jeni said happily. “Rascal do you know that Nithish loved you before?” Madhu asked.
“Actually I planned this for Josphine, but it finally came to me”, Jeni said.
By talking we all moved, and we took out cycle. “Nithu”, Jeni called. I turned with smile. “Will you ride with me?” she asked. I opened my bag. Searched for something without any knowledge about what to search. Something big got in my hand, it was bag’s rain pouch. I folded it into half and another half and kept it over my cycle’s carrier. I tapped the carrier as a sign for Jeni to sit. She smiled. I climbed over my cycle. Susan walked near us, “Oh, fun ride uh?”
“Yeah”, I answered. “Can you do me a favor?” I asked. “Absolutely I can”, Susan said. I removed my bag and gave it to her. She got it from me. “Please take it to café, it was not making us feel comfortable”, I said. Susan gave a staring look. “Only today”, I said. She accepted.  
I started to pedal the cycle, I didn’t felt myself over the cycle that day. I felt like floating over the air with Jeni. After I crossed the school zone, hands of Jeni leapt from back and grabbed my shoulders. Hand bar jerked a moment, she feared and tilted her head over my back and forced her right cheek over my back. “Jeni”, I called slowly.
“Nithu”
“I, I”
“Speak out”, she said by sitting straight, but her hands are over my shoulders.
“Am sorry”, on hearing my say she beat me gently.
“Idiot, I know about you”, she said.
“I am still wondering how I get you”, he said with a laugh.
“You didn’t caught me I am the one to get you idiot”, she said.
“The first day you came Ellina”, I said and laughed.
She laughed and asked, “What you think of Josphine’s proposal?”
“She never proposed me I just lied you”, I said.
“No more lies”, she ordered me. “I will try to”, I replied.
“Nithish, I haven’t been with any boy before”, she said. “I haven’t even spoken other than you”, I said. She giggled.
“Any girl will fall for you because you are so kind”, she said.
“And for you too”, I said.
            “Nithish can you ride faster”, she requested. On her hear I pedaled as much faster I could. She grabbed me tighter with a hug. On her hug, I pedaled faster. Suddenly a car came in, I lose control over the speed so I turned to side and cycle moved down from road. There was construction work going on, sand was dumped over and cycle skid over the sand. Jeni left holding me and we both fall over the sand. We were lucky to fell over the dumped sand. Both had scratches at arms.
            “Nithu what happened?” she hurried to me before looking her hurts. My heart too searched her when I fell and didn’t cared about my wounds. “Sorry I should have asked you to go faster”, Jeni said.
“I think we would be sharing lot of sorry today”, I said. She stood and gave hands for me. I turned and looked at both ends of the road, to my luck no was there on the road. I grabbed her hand instead of getting up, I pulled her to me.
She fell over me, and she stood again by murmuring, “Idiot, naughty Idiot”. I stood our uniform became dirty. I climbed over my cycle and said, “Come on Jeni”. She grabbed my face and kissed my cheek. By kissing the next moment she climbed over the cycle. I could not recollect what she did as she was very fast and everything held in a minute.
I was in an alcoholic state, I was riding my cycle without my knowledge. We didn’t spoke a minute. I reached slowly to café. I stopped the cycle slowly and asked Jeni to get down. She stepped down slowly.
We entered the café and found our place. We sat down and waited for Madhu and Susan. “Should we wait?” I asked. “Let’s order one juice”, Jeni said. I called waiter and said, “1 lemon juice 1 by 2”.
Jeni called waiter and corrected my order, “Not I by 2, bring it as 1 with two straws”. On hearing her saying I smiled and I was jumping inside.
“Are you serious?” I asked after the waiter went. “If I was not serious I wouldn’t have said him”, she said and extended her hand over the table. I kept my arm near her hand and touched the finger tips by watching her eyes.
            She wrinkled at me, I pinched her fingers which were with my fingers. The juice came by, there were two straws floating opposite to each other. Jeni asked me to sit next to her.
“In all movies couple will be sitting opposite right?” I asked. “I asked you to sit next to me”, she said with a firm voice. I changed my seat by sitting right to her. “Let’s drink now”, she said.
Both bent down to sip, before our mouth grabs the straw our cheeks scratched each other’s. They repelled for the second sip, scratched again for the 4th sip and they attracted together like opposite poles of magnets until the last drop.
Suddenly a voice came up, “Look Sue, some people are having their own time”. It was Madhu, attracted magnets repelled on hearing the voice.
“We just thought of having a juice initially as we were thirsty”, Jeni said. “I think Juice is not for thirst”, Susan said. I and Jeni giggled.
“It is just a start my buddy, now your enemy will be possessiveness”, Madhu said to me.
“I am not possessive and she is not too”, I said and looked at Jeni she nodded rapidly. “Susan do you remember it is the exact line we spoke on that day”, Madhu said to Susan and they both laughed on their own.
After some chats and eating everyone went home as usual. I went home, my mom hastened on seeing my wounds. I told that I just slipped and it was nothing she tended my wounds.
I logged into FB, Jeni sent me a lot of kiss emoji and heart which I could not count. I sent double hearts than her. Jeni updated her status to ‘In a relationship’. I commented, ‘How is that unlucky guy’ followed by Susan and Madhu’s comments. That day marked was as an important day in my life.

Chapter 9-Who Is Guilty?

Chapter 9 Who Is Guilty?       Days passed, it was really hard for me to smile in front of others. But, I forced a fake smile with friends and family. The absence of Jeni hadn’t made much impact on anyone in the class even for Susan and Madhu as they were fully engaged with their romance.        Susan and Madhu will always ask me to move on. Some times, tears dripped without my acknowledgment. Days were passing with the piece of paper she gave. It was the only thing lasts with me that Jeni gave me.        Whenever  I miss her, I read the paper she gave me. After reading, my minutes with her comes inside my head and tears will overwhelm from the edge of the eyes. While reading the last line at which she said that to keep her smile I need to smile. On reading that line, the tear slips followed by my smile. I smiled imagining her smiling.         Every time I read it, I take some moments of breat...

I had no expectations or special planning over her birthday but Jeni and Madhu had. My excitement was little emerging as Jeni showed an excitement.                     I heard with Madhu, he told that he had many special dreams and desires over her birthday and he also planned for a love proposal on that day. This added my curiosity, ‘ How she would react?’                       Madhu asked me to accompany him to a gift shop and buy a gift for Susan. I reached that shop.
