Athira Patel

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT RIYA?" I asked. No almost shouted on the call. "Are you talking about the same Abhilash? I think you misunderstood him with someone else" I asked pacing the room not able to grasp anything. 

Many questions were running through my mind at this moment. Is this what he was trying to say? Is this about that two years? Then why the hell have I never seen him in college? Am i that oblivious really?

Urghhh… it's so frustrating. 

"Yes Athira. I am damn sure about it. Because I even called our classmates and found out about it, and guess what? they too said the same thing. He was the silent guy in college. He only joined in our college for two years to complete his PG. Before that he studied in Bangalore. He used to stay in college hostel with his gang. There were even rumours that he joined in our college just for a girl on whom he has a crush from childhood. But don't know what is the truth about it. Because no one saw him talking to any girl or interacting with any girl closely in two years if that's the case. But he has many followers in our college since he looks handsome" explained Riya from the other side while I just sat on the bed listening to her. 

"How did you get all this information?" I asked wondering. Because even she didn't see him much in our college. 

"Asked our friends though. You are forgetting that it's Riya here. And my charm still works wonders." She sighed dramatically saying that line. Ha, how can I forget her charm. She used to flirt with boys just to gather the information she wants to know. Looks like it's still working. 

"Ya ya. I got it. I just forgot how manipulative you can be if you want to." I said sarcastically knowing too well about her reaction. And i am correct since she reacted so quickly.

"Hey woman, that's not manipulative ok. It's called charming. It needs a lot of talent to be like that." She said with rather pride in her voice to which I chuckled in return. She can be dramatic if needed. 

"Ok madam. Whatever you say. So you are saying that he was our senior and we didn't know anything about that?" I asked still confused about the topic. 

"Probably yes. And to say frankly Athi, we were in our own world at that time. When did we glance or gave a shit about others or anything about what's happening around us?" She said to which I too have to agree. Because that's the truth. We were in our own little world. 

"And at least i use to talk with other students in our class and campus. But you? Damn girl. You were such a nerd. You didn't even know how many boys in our class use to try you. You were that oblivious." She explained accusing me for being silent in the class. 

"Hey, don't blame me for that. We both know the reason behind that. And yes, i agree that i was a silent student but that was ok for me. Who thought that this Abhilash will be our senior?" I asked sighing loudly because i kind of got frustrated. I was silent because of my breakup and didn't want to interact with any of them. It was my depressing state to say frankly. 

"Ok ok. Sorry for that. I know the reason. Look, we both don't know about it. And it's rather surprising that he was our senior. And maybe it's just a coincidence that he was our senior in college. But my gut feeling says otherwise. I think it's destiny." She explained in a singsong way letting me know that she is excited about our story. I sighed listening to her words and thought about it.
