Arjun's POV:

Her cuteness, Her smile, Her attitude, Her spirit, Her game, Her voice, Each and everything about her made me fall for her again and again.Till yesterday  I had a doubt whether this feeling is love or not. But today I  am 100% sure this is love. But Is she connected to my soul?? "About whom you are talking about kanna"my Grandma asked , caressing my head which is placed on her lap

Arjun           : My minion paati.

Grandma  :Minion ?? Is this her name?

Arjun          : No paati. Actually she is very cute like a small kid thats why I named her minion.

Grandma  :Okay kanna what is her name??

Grandma  :My minion nu sonna. Athukkulla unnoda aagitala. Apdi enna special

Arjun         :Paati, she is my collegemate, my department junior paati. My friend

Days passed away. As paatti said frist I want to be a good friend of aadhi. Aadhi become a good friend of mine. She gelled with my gang . I never failed to admire her more over  her game .Frist year student's basket ball team has been formed. Our  favourite spot always filled with fun and laugh. Freshers day . We second year students are the organiser of fresher's day. In campus auditorium which is capable to contain 1500 people. Our seniors welcomed us in a grandeur fresher's day. Alway we want to do better than our senior. Today our band going to perform in fresher's day. Juniors started to enter the auditorium. I know so many eyes staring at me,but my eyes searching for those two eyes of my minion. I couldn't find her anywhere inside the auditorium. I saw Rohit sitting in the auditorium kept his college bag in the seat next to his seat.I called him through phone.

Rohit   : Hello anna sollunga.

Arjun   :Rohit . Where is aadhi da??

Rohit  : She will come anna. She went to sports board of university anna.

Arjun   :Okay da.

Our performance slotted as 2nd  event. The celebration has started.Still she is not in auditorium. I tried to call her .But its switched off. Its our time to perform.My gang arranged the instruments on the stage while compere introducing my band members .Her seat is still empty. I am standing in centre of the stage.First song by sarah adi penne song

 Yen enadhu idhayam
Thudikkum isaiyil
Kavidhai ondrai ezhuthinaai
Adhai vizhiyil korthu uyirin ullae
Paarvaiyaalae solgiraai

I put my heads down and lost in my own thoughts. Sudden silence in the auditorium, I raised my head to see my minion talking with rohit.I got my energy and hold the mike in my hands my eyes on her started to sing

Sirukki vaasam kaathoda
Narukki podum en usura
Mayangi ponen pinnaadiyae

Unna vachchen ulla
Ada vellakatti pulla
Ini ellaamae un koodathaan

I couldn't move my eyes from her. After our performance, all started to clap. My minion and teddy bear clapping their hands happily and she shouting my name loudly.I  admire the bond between my minion and teddy bear. She become my energy. I eyed her to come out of auditorium.I saw her move from her seat and came out through the back exit of the auditorium. I use the front exit door to go out. Outside the auditorium I see her walking towards me. I moved fast to reach her. She forwarded her hand. 

Aadhi   :Arjun semaya irrunchi. Your voice oh my god. Mesmerising voice.

Arjun    :Aadhi stop. Why are you late ??

Aadhi   :Sorry arjun . I went sports board of university to  give our  basket ball team list .

Arjun   :How dare you to give excuses to your senior( false anger)

Aadhi  :Sorry My dear senior.Here after I won't repeat it.

Arjun    :Good that's my minion

Aadhi   :Minion??

Arjun   :Yes you are very tiny and cute. Thats why your name minion

Aadhi   :Oh apdi. Irrukattum.Atleast now you can give your hand la??

I forwarded my hand. But someone hold her forwarded hand. I looked uo to found a guy.

Jai       :You are Aadhira right. Basket ball player first year.

Aadhi  :Yes(hesistantly)

Jai         :That day you played very well. I am your senior player team captain

Aadhi   :Thank you .

Jai turn to move . Aadhira turn to me and smile. All of sudden, Jai turn to aadhi and said.

Jai   : Aadhira and onemore thing. I love you. 

Jai left the place.Her smile swept away from her face and filled with fear. She hold my hand . She started to trembling in shock.I have seen the same kind of expression , when I proposed her that day. Some thing is wrong. She fell unconcious. I hold her in my arms.
