After buying the thakalis from the vendor, just as Naveen's luck would have it, It rained. And oh how heavily it rained. Maybe it was the atmosphere or general gloomy mood of the area, Naveen couldn't pry his mind away from how he got dumped by Aishwarya. It was on a rainy day just like this. Losing her had been bad but her sheer coldness to him had been worse. And just like that it all hit him then and there. It was over.
Falling to his knees, thakalis scattering everywhere Naveen feels like absolute shit. His legs didn't seem to work anymore. He was so tired. so. tired. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to lay here and get run over by some car.
The rain abruptly stops above him confused he opens his eyes and sees a pair of feet, green crocs. Looking up he sees a REALLY attractive man gaze down upon him with worry, his umbrella held over Naveen's head the stranger says, "uh- uh ninu ara- arama?"
"...huh?"
"uh english?"
Naveen nods his head.
"bro you good?"
nodding Naveen suddenly embarrassed at having been caught at such a position by this random hot dude quickly gets to his knees accidently hitting his head on the umbrella.
"O-OH- careful haha"
he laughs a familiar warm laugh and ruffles Naveen's hair. "don't get drunk this early in the day, It's only 2."
"WH- I- I'm not drunk dude."
The stranger looks at him skeptically, shakes his head and says "well okay then i guess. I'm Nithin. You are?"
"Naveen."
hearing this Nithin takes a sharp intake of breath between his teeth. "Oof i've heard of a Naveen from someone. Not good things."
"oh haha."
After standing awkwardly for a few minutes in the rain Naveen makes a move to leave and Nithin says "Hey, uh, I know i'm a stranger annol but take care of yourself."
"sure thanks"
"oh and keep the umbrella I live close by anyway and it looks like you need it more than me."
"no no I couldn't."
"I got it for ₹5 at some fair anyway bro keep it."
saying this Nithin jogs away leaving Naveen dumbfounded. Why did he remind him of someone...
