My Dearest Enemy

9. Maira

"you wrote a poem on me??" agastya bhai asked.

Yes I have written poem on him because he is very special person in my life. He has been always there for me. I don't know what happened to him when he was in london. I want know it but i know he is not ready to tell so I'm giving him the space.

"Yes big brother" i said.

"Why?? I'm not that special"

Really bhai. You are my brother. you are very much special.

"Because you are the person who know me very well. You are my big brother. You're my sunshine. I know sometimes you act like a grumpy ass but i know you'll do anything just to keep me safe. So i love you big bro" i explained to him.

Bhai is looked at me like he want to cry after hearing my words but instead he hugged me and i hugged him back. Seeing him happy makes me happy.
Usually he doesn't show love and affection but now he is doing it so I'm happy and emotional at the same time.

"I don't know whether I'm special or not but thank you for doing this. And i love you too little angel. Also don't use bad words maira" he said with smile on his face.

"Aww, my babies" maa and dad said at the same time.

"Angel, best of luck for today" dad said.

"Thank you dad. I'll give my best" i said.

"Okay enough of these senti scenes. Let's go before we gets late" bhai said.

"See you later beta" maa said kissing my forehead.

We said goodbye to our parents And then we get into the car and leave for college. All the way i keep thinking about mr. Yamraj's poem. I have no idea on whom he wrote the poem.
I tried to get information via annika but she said he borrowed some of her books. I wonder why?

What are you gonna do mr. Yamraj?

We reached the campus on time. The first person i see is annika who is coming towards us with so much excitement. Usually she bunk her classes but today she decided to come.

"Yoo babes. You gonna win. Don't drown my name in water. My girl go and show my big bro his place" she said with so much enthusiasm.

That's why i love her. She has always been a good friend to me. Inspite her brother's hate towards me she loves me. And I'm really grateful to her for being such a good friend to me.

"Hello to you to anni" i said with a smile.

"Leave hello and all, just tell me, are you gonna kick my brother's ass or not" she asked impatiently.

Agastya bhai clear his throat just to remind his presence.

Translation: He wanna say: Don't curse.

Annika roll her eyes and completely ignored him. A ghost of smile appear on my face. Seeing my brother completely clueless in front of my best friend is best part.

"Yeah. I'll do my best anni"

"Can't wait to see my big brother's reaction" she said.

"Maira, it's time for your class. All the best" bhai said.

"Thank you bhai" i said and we said goodbye to each other and went for my english.

I'll be lying if i say I'm not nervous obviously I'm nervous. Presenting poem in front of whole class is scary but I'm maira Malhotra and i know how to handle pressure. So i took a deep breath and went inside the classroom.

I can feel the competitive spirit already. I see no sign of mr. Yamraj. I went to my seat and sat there.
I decide to practice Little bit before the class begin.
