Am I the One?

Chapter 5

Days passed and occasionally she will have the image of Madhan kissing her eyes. She will smile automatically. She is not sure why that moment is repeated by her brain. But her heart and mind stuck to that moment. Radhi completed 10th exams. She stayed in home.

One day, Vinoth and Madhan had a foot ball match in college and so the family planned to visit the match to encourage them. But Ragu had an important work in hospital and so he denied. Rohini too denied stating that she need to be there. So Sathya and Radhi went to college. She sat with Sathya, and waited for the match to start. A girl came at that time. 

Akshaya- "Hello uncle Naan Akshaya.. Madhan oda friend.". Sathya smiled at her. 

Akshaya- "Madhan daddy.. ", she asked like a confusion..

Sathya- "naan thaan ma", Akshaya suddenly fell on his feet and got blessing. Radhi didn't mind anything, she was searching for Madhan and Vinoth munching snacks. She dressed in a very simple manner, since in these two years she didn't went to any shop nor any purchases. Everything was bought to her by her parents, still she used the old one. Akshaya looked at her from top to bottom. It gave Radhi a disgusting feel but ignored it.

Soon, Madhan and Vinoth came towards them. They bought chocolates for Radhi. Vinoth gave that to her. 

Radhi- "eppo start agum?"

Madhan- "inum 15 mins la agidum di .... Hi Akshaya, enna intha pakam?"

 Akshaya- "un parents ah pakalam nu vanthen"

Madhan- "oh okay, appa ithu Akshaya enoda classmate. Akshaya ivar en appa,  iva en mama ponnu, Radhi", While introducing he pulled the snacks she was eating so far now.. 

Madhan- "pothum ma.. avlo thaan sapdanum.. ", Radhi pouted. 

Madhan- "Naan unaku onnu vaangi tharalam nu irunken pogum pothu, itha sapta apuram atha sapda mudiathu... so pothum sariah? ", Radhi smiled at him and nodded at him. He packed the snacks in the bag.

Akshaya- "Hi Radhi". Radhi smiled at her innocently.

Akshaya- "Nee school padikura thaane, unaku ethavathu doubt naa enkita kelu sariah? naan 12th la district first. naan unaku easy ah padika solli tharen.. "

Radhi looked at her with a confusion, went near Madhan and hold his hand. Madhan chuckled.

Akshaya- "enachu? "

Vinoth- "athuku  enaku district first venam naan state first kitaye kathukuren nu artham"

Akshaya felt shamed and glared at Radhi. Radhi hide herself behind Madhan. Madhan and Vinoth noted this and glanced at each other.

Madhan- "Radhi ma, nee enaku inum all the best solave illa.. ", he changed the topic.

Radhi smiled and gave a hand shake to him muttering, "all the best". Madhan kissed her forehead in return. Radhi then went to Vinoth and did the same, Vinoth kissed both her cheeks. Radhi smiled. Boys started to kiss her like before hoping that one day she will change, like walking with Sathya daily. 

But Akshaya hated this act. Akshaya- "rendu perukum sister ah irukurathu kooda nalla irukum la"

Madhan- "enaku sister nu eppo sonen? enaku iva mama ponnu.. avanuku thaan sister.". Radhi felt an unknown relief and happiness. Radhi and Madhan looked at each other once, Radhi blinked her eyes as an appreciation with a smile. 

Madhan was sure that he started to like her and so he denied her to be his sister. When Radhi looked at him with a smile, he conformed that she too wished him to be a friend and not as her brother.
