~Past Scenario~

RK's POV

I walk in madhu's room taking one of notebook I brought in noon... she gave me big smile then taking her books settled on floor eyeing me to sit down too...

"Okay I did most of the sums... first you copy them rishu then will continue further..."

She told and I took her book then started to copy it all... I kept writing mindlessly as I m not getting a single thing... I m not good in studies... Back to Nagpur I was attending school just for name sake moreover in village study things hold not much importance... most of time I would help dad in his business...

"your handwriting is like some doctor!!"

Madhu giggle commenting I stare in my book and smiled seriously my handwriting are worst no one can read what I write... I told her..

"thanks for compliment..."

She laughed hard and I kept staring at her face like fool... don't know why I feel strange with her... she is my first girl friend in fact I never talked to any girl like this ever before and I was doing same with her since first day when we enter in her house... but madhu is really different... I was unable to resist her when she asked me to be her friend I was taken aback then thought nothing is wrong in being friends that's why I said yes...

I completed whatever she had written declaring

"done!!"

"okay let's start with next question... you know how to solve this problem sum??"

She showed me next question asking... I seem to be like a fool... now what to reply her that I m not interested in study... still I shook my head in no... her mouth turn to o shape then she spoke...

"really?? It's so simple... here see I will solve it..."

She begin to write in her book solving the problem sum I intently look at her... studying her features... her brown eyes hold a glee saying how she loves to do maths... her lips curving into different shape when she got stuck solving it... a big toothy smile which erupt when she successfully solved it...

"see I did it..."

She clapped her hand excitedly making me turn away my gaze from her face... I compose myself replying back..

"that's good... I think you are genius in maths..."

"Yess!! I m rishu... in last exam I got 50/50..."

She spoke like a child... I smile saying...

"wow!! Brilliant..."

"can I ask you something??"

"yes madhu??"

"where were you since afternoon??"

I got confused on her inquiry means why is she asking this... she got it and said in hustle..

"Umm actually I didn't saw u since lunch thats why... if you don't want to reply then it's ok!!"

She completed herself in low tone... this thing amazed me... means she was thinking about me... don't know why but this information made my heart flutter with happiness... I replied her...

"it's ok madhu you can ask anything we are friends right! actually I went to jay's place then he took me market for shopping of school things..."

"ohhh okay!! so you bought everything ??"

"yes almost..."

She nodded in agreement... my mind drive back to morning incident when I walked in classroom without wearing uniform and also without bag... It was such an embarrassing moment of my life... everyone was staring at me like I was an alien... only madhu was exceptional case as she was knowing reason behind it...

"You want help means in completing other books??"

My trance broke when she asked me...

"what?? Noo madhu I will finish it myself..."

"You don't know rishu there is a lot to complete you wouldn't be able to do it alone... let me help you so go and bring books for other subjects..."

I tried to say no again but she didn't give me a chance and walk out of room... I stare her figure until it disappears from view...

After 5 mins she came back holding two three books... what?? she went into my room to bring books... god she is totally mad girl... why want to write my books? I know there is lot of pending work but I don't want to trouble her...

She walk near her bookshelf took out her notebooks coming back to me she settled on floor putting books down...

"here you write social science and I will write science... okay??"

I didn't utter a word and kept staring in her direction... she is really crazy I remember back how she replied to her aunt while lunch... I wanted to laugh like mad but somehow controlled myself...

"rishu start so I can copy your handwriting..."

"Okay fine!!"

I begin to write first chapter's question answer she peep in my book keenly observing how I m writing... after a moment she too started on it... when she wrote some line I peep into her book and was shocked she is copying my writing perfectly... no one can differentiate it... what a talented girl...

"You have good talent of copying other's handwriting ... I am impressed!!!"

I compliment her with amuse... she chuckle with smirk plaster on her face... after that we continue our writing session with little bit talks... she asked me about my liking disliking and also gave information about school and professors and ma'am... I must say she is a chatter box...

I was so much engross in writing that didn't make out her chattering is stopped and came to know when her head fall on my thigh means she felt asleep while writing only... I turn my head around to know what time is it... then saw a huge wall clock striking 12:15... I freak out it's quite late...

Closing all books and keeping them aside I lifted her head from my lap then called out her name...

"Madhu!!! Madhu wake up!! Madhu!!"

But in vain she is in deep slumber... I thought to myself...

"what to do now??"

Then it clicked me supporting her I stood up on my feet then pulled her too making her stand... she was going to fall but I hold her both forearms coming before her very next moment her head fall on my shoulder I froze over there... I never went through such situation holding a girl that too from so near... I quickly walk near her bed pulling her along with me... then made her lay on bed properly...

I sigh in relief when my mission accomplished... I took blanket and cover her up... she fidgeted in bed adjusting herself... I kept staring at her for some good mins her sleepy face still holding a cute smile... her hairs little bit falling on her face... coming to sense I asked myself
"what is wrong with you RK???"

Then I placed her books on study table and walked out from her room switching off lights and closing door behind me...
