Adhaa neenga irukkinga'le?
(Aren't you there with me?)
Those words might be simple for her, but for me, they sparked a maddening change. She changed, not in any real sense, but solely through my eyes.
On the way to her house, I silently followed her, pausing my bike before resuming. Even in the evening sunlight, the animals in human form are more natural nowadays, so I didn't think twice about safeguarding her until she reached home safely.
Then, I went to that old man's house, parked the bike, and headed straight to my room, giving a glance at him who was sitting on the couch with another elderly man in front of him.
Furrowing my brows, I left the place, closed the door behind me, removed my watch, took out my key, phone, and wallet from pockets, placing them safely. Then, unbuttoning my shirt, I tossed it into the laundry bucket, and headed for a hot bath to warm up from the chilly weather.
Afterward, I emerged with towel wrapped around my waist, and stood in front of the mirror, lost in thoughts about her plan.
The only thought running through my mind was, what if Vinitha ma'am or the coordinators at the Naan Mudhalvan course club found out that Seetha was selected for the chairperson position, but Jiji is working instead her?
If Vinitha ma'am called her parents to inquire about Seetha's absence, the entire plan would collapse. I doubt those two best friends, who support each other in life, are not aware enough to consider this way of possibility.
The negative possibilities swirling in my mind were unsettling, What would Vinitha ma'am do if she found out? If she called Seetha's father to inquire about her absence, how would he react? That could be the last day Seetha and I could see each other. So, what should I do to get rid of this problem now?
Thinking of some ideas, I ran my fingers through my beard and noticed that had grown more than usual. I sighed, realizing I hadn't noticed it before my bath, and decided to trim it in the morning.
Then, changing into a loose white vest and cream-colored shorts, I plopped down on the balcony attached to my room, lost in a same thoughts.
But when I heard a phone ringing sound, I stood up, grabbed the phone from the table, and sat back down on the balcony bean bag to answer Elango's call.
After sharing my idea about the part-time job, Elango wished me the best of luck. And, I decided to keep Seetha's involvement a secret, not wanting anyone to interfere in my growing connection with her. Yet, she openly admits her feelings, and now the whole class and college know she has a crush on me; even her close friends are aware that she loves me.
