The Wrong Person... (CH -5)

Previous Chapter: http://passionofasoul.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/is-this-lovech-4.html

Sun has gone down to bed, the sea was sleeping in silent, and even the wind was calm. Mother Nature herself, is seems to be in such a peaceful state. From a five year old kid to 60 year old person looks happy on this peaceful night. As it was the 365^th day of the year the 31^st December. Party animals are partying; lovers are waiting for the clock to strike 12 midnight so that they can kiss their better half. Some are celebrating with their friends, few with their family, cousins, and relatives. Somehow everyone is seems to be happy including Anand who is out with his friends celebrating the New Year’s Eve. Except that one soul who is crying her heart out. Yes that is our Madhu whose heart was shattered into pieces by Anand. The soul whom she loves a lot, the soul that she trusted the most, the person without who her life would be filled with darkness. She is not able to imagine a future without Anand. It may be a short span of time she has been with Anand. Yet, he has become the song in her heart. She hates her herself for falling for him.

She hates herself more and more for not able to hate him. How can he say that it wasn’t love what they shared between them. She thought to herself, “has he forgotten the times, when he said I was his lucky charm then.  He claims everything to be such an illusion now. The past few months of my life, the precious memories that we made together was it all untrue. Why did he become such a selfish creature? Was he always selfish? If so how can I not know this all these days? I have never seen such a stone hearted person ever in my life. And congrats to my stupid heart for falling for Mr. wrong. Does every girl go through this? Or only some cursed souls like me go through these unfortunate moments. I wasn’t even looking for love; it came at an unexpected time and has given me the incurable pain of all times. I did not beg him to be my friend in the first place. I did not asking him to come, all the way to Bangalore. He himself came into my life, became a friend, cared me like a mother, protected me like a father, fought with me like a sibling, and was always there for me like a best friend. Now he has left me in despair. He denied the fact that we are soul mates; instead he proclaimed he is just a passer-by. Anand, I love him so much but he made clear that I’m not his souls mate. Instead he asserted me as just another passing cloud in his life.” The clock has stroked exactly 12 midnight it is NEW YEAR.

Happy New Year wishes have started to flood Madhumitha’s phone from all her friends, relatives, family and everyone. Each and every time the phone rings or messages crops up Madhu’s heart would skip a beat hoping it to be Anand. But she knows he won’t wish her. from the way, he spoke to her today evening she knows he has gone far away from her already. The rash rude ridiculous attitude he showed to her, the worst side of Anand. Another side of him that has never been shown out to her she saw that today. He wasn’t the same sweet, cute, romantic Anand she fell in love with. Even Anand is like other men out there who would behave like as if he is in love with the girl. By showing all the fake emotions, misleading romantic gestures, and flirting in the name of friendship. The poor girl would fall for those smart tricks played by him. She would open up her heart hoping that  he is falling for her too. The girl at last would end up heart broken, feel like been used up, betrayed, back stabbed by him. Madhu came to a conclusion now all men are the same. Selfish animals, who would not even think twice before playing with a girl’s heart, forgetting the very fact his mother was a young girl once, his own sister is a girl and in future his own daughter will be a girl. Still he doesn’t care about anything. What he cares about the most is a girl, who he can roam around with, a girl just to flirt when he feels like to. Somehow Madhu managed to pull herself together emotionally by self-motivation saying that “Anand is the WRONG PERSON” for her. There is no better medication than music for a scarred heart. Madhu listening to few sad romantic songs cries herself to sleep. One of the music tracks from those sad romantic collections http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E61HNXjgyqA.

Preethi, Abirami and Malini have gathered at Preethi’s house along with Madhumitha to console her. Of course being her friend’s it’s their primal duty to curse the whole of mankind in the process of scolding Anand for what he has done to Madhu. (Being a passionate soul who is concerned more about the two souls involved in feelings & problems etc. what I don’t seem to understand is why would these so called friends always curse the man kind for just one individual’s fault? I don’t think Anand requested for the whole male population’s permission before becoming close with Madhu or while breaking her heart. Still there is no possible justification for why would these friends blame the whole mankind. Only the almighty god himself should know the answer dear God do you know the answer? Or even you are clueless like passionate soul?) It has been nearly 18 hours since her meeting with Anand. However Madhu is still in such a miserable state mourning for her heart break. The clock strikes exactly 12 noon now within just 5 minutes she receives a call from Anand. Everyone including Madhu herself is puzzled by that phone call. Why is he calling her now? to worsen her heart break? What does he wants now? Madhu is not ready to attend that call now. 

She lets that one ring goes to numerous rings and now it’s been nearly 15 missed calls. At the 22^nd missed call Preethi picks up the call and answers (yes every group will have this one friend who suddenly feels pity for the guy). Preethi “Hello” Anand “Madhu is it Madhu I wanna talk to you Madhu” (he breaks her heart yesterday evening and now he uses her name thrice in a sentence? You shocked right don’t worry not only you even Madhu’s friends are. Oh come one while typing up even I’m shocked let’s get back to the scene). Preethi “Anand it’s me Preethi, Madhu doesn’t want to talk to you now”, Anand reply’s “Preethi please convince her to talk to me it’s very important”. Madhu nodes her head as “NO I DON’T WANNA TALK TO THAT STUPID GUY” Preethi says to Anand “I am sorry Anand she is not listening to me, she doesn’t want to talk to you”.  Anand “fine dont let her go away anywhere, I’m coming there now” saying this he hangs up the phone. Madhu is irritated she doesn’t want to see his face at all Madhu says to Preethi “he is he coming here now? Why is he coming? I am going to leave before he comes here, I don’t want to see his face.” There enters Anand spot on before Madhu leaves. It’s the same exact spot where they first met Preethi’s garden

Anand: “Hey Madhu listen listen I want to talk to you”

Madhu: “JUST GET LOST, GO AWAY” (I guess u can feel the heat of the moment from the caps lock)

Anand: “hey listen, Madhu I LOVE YOU” (Madhu stops and turns around)

Madhu: “WHATTTTT??? You you such a cheap guy, yesterday you humiliate me and now you”

Anand: “listen listen I have a reason for all that”

Madhu: “reason? What possible reason could it be”

Anand: “see me and Karthick had a bet, it’s the consequences of it”

Madhu: “what???”

Anand: “yes basically, I should not propose or accept any girl’s proposal until Jan 1^st 12 noon. So..”

Madhu: “SO?? SO ? YOU PLAY WITH MY FEELINGS??”

Anand: “see the bet was made even before you came into my life. Then you came into my life, I fell in love with you, I wanted to express it to you, was just waiting for the right moment you know”

Madhu: “what do you mean by a right moment?”

Anand: “like today after Jan 1^st 12 noon, after the bet is over, but before that you proposed me”

Madhu: “huh I proposed you? Excuse me Mr, I never said I LOVE YOU Anand did I, I just said I’m falling for you. There is a huge difference between I LOVE YOU and I’m falling for you”

Anand: “OKEY madam whatever, chuck all that I love you Madhu”

Madhu: “chuck all that? you cannot even listen to what I am saying and you wanna chuck that just get lost, and you say I love me?? do I have to believe you even after all this? I HATE YOU I HATE YOU SO MUCH”

Likewise, the argument continues between Anand and Madhu for a while and at-last Madhu storms off like a wind from there. Anand chases her and tries to explain himself still no use. Numerous missed calls, none have been returned back by her. And by 8pm he learns from Preethi that Madhu has left to Bangalore in 7pm Train. Irritated totally by the whole situations Anand is in his terrace now with Barath and Karthick.

Anand: “its all because of you bloody idiot” (pointing at Karthick)

Karthick: “how will I know things will get this worse?”

Anand: “you know I have come across many girls in my life so far. But none is like Madhu, such an  attitudish, arrogant, untamed, foul – tempered, sharp – tongued, spirited female, she she shh shee..just gets on my nerves you know”

Barath: “who Madhu? hey come on she is just a nice girl”

Anand: “nicee—eee what you know about her? You know how she fights and argues with me? For no apparent reason she will get angry with me and pull up a fight I should remain calm. And she herself will come and say sorry, I should forgive her and start talking. Oh man you know how much torcher I have gone through with that female in this past few months?”

Barath: “oh really!! If so then you should have avoided her and thrown her out of your life”

Anand: “well yeah that’s what I am going to do now”

Barath: “ha ha dude, if you really wanted to do you would have done that the 1^st or 2^nd time you guys fought. Not now though, remember today you told her you love her”

Karthick: “yeah true, even yesterday you gave us party saying you found your soul mate in Madhu”

Anand: “yes that was yesterday, but now this girl doesn’t even understand me, she is not the right one for me, I can get so many girls in snap of a finger”

Karthick: “yes bro you can remember Meera? Your Ex she is there right”

Anand: “ahan true true, she is not only my ex, my best friend too, family friend too, my mom likes her, Meera always takes care of me, she never argues like Madhu”

Barath: “You mean to say Meera doesn’t have her own brain!! She just nodes her head for whatever you say” (Barath says this with a sarcastic smile on his face)

Anand : “No no not like that Meera is smart, talented and all. But she is not attitudes like Madhu you see. And I know Meera for many years now. Madhu must be something less than a year”

Karthick: “you are right dude...we meet Madhu on Preethi Birthday only, so hardly 6 or 7 months. And look at Preethi how arrogant she is, of course her friend Madhu is going to be like her only. So leave it bro”

Anand: “yeah I have decided Madhu is the WRONG PERSON for me, Meera is the right person she is perfect in all sense. You know what tomorrow I’m going to tell this to Meera and propose her”

While this conversation is going on at Chennai, Madhumitha is heading off to Bangalore in the happiness that love of her life, Anand loves her too. Preethi, whose is sitting next to Madhu teases her about the whole situation whatever happened so far. Madhu blushes in shyness with a confident smile that there is a bright wonderful future ahead with Anand. The anger she showed to Anand was just a fake emotion just to hide her real feelings for him. How can she accepted whatever Anand says. How irresponsible Anand was, just for  a bet he nearly killed her emotionally. He needs to suffer atleast a tiny bit of what she went through right. Remember love is always a mutual feeling, never one side. The one sided feeling is just a crush or infatuation. Where there is true love the happiness and suffering should be felt by both the souls at the same intensity. That why they are known as soul mates. Madhu is trying to punish Anand for his irresponsible behaviour. He did have two choices. Either he could have told Madhu regarding the bet beforehand. Or Anand could have broken the bet and proposed her or at least told her even he loves her when she expressed herself. Cannot he loose in a small bet just for his lover Madhu? so yes Madhumitha has a good reason for her behaviour towards Anand. 

However, Little she knows, that Anand has changed his mind AGAIN now. In less than 10 hours of proposing Madhu already Anand started to fluctuate about his decision. He is has decided to propose Meera now, the girl whom he knows for years, his family friend, who knows him inside out moreover a very good friend of him too. May be that’s why Barath said during the phone conversation with Anand, that he did not like the way things go between Anand and Madhu. Barath being Anand’s best friend must know him very well. There is a possibility that Barath knew Anand have always loved Meera. And that why he didn’t like Anand playing around with Madhu’s life in the name of friendship if it’s true, then how would the poor little soul Madhumitha is going to face the second heart break? What’s going to happen next? How is she going to face all those problems?

Is this Love...(Ch - 4)

Previous Chapter - 3: http://passionofasoul.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/best-friends.html

Nearly a week now since Madhumitha has come to Chennai. December semester holidays facilitated Madhumitha to have one of the best times of her life. She can’t stop herself from thinking about Anand. He was always on her mind, day and night, regardless of whatever work she had. She never felt this way about anyone so far. Well she is a third year college student must be 18 or 19 years old. Of course she would have had crushes in the past, but nothing serious so far. She hasn't thought about this feeling, what it is, why it is there, does she has to do something about it. Nothing she has thought about this feeling she gets when Anand is around her. She just enjoys that feel.

As usual Malini, Gayathri and Madhu meet up on an evening at a Coffee shop. Gayathri and Malini where gossiping about some random people they know, suddenly their attention was drawn towards Madhu. Malini goes “How is Anand”. With a shocked look on her face Madhu replies “why you asking ME?” Malini giggles and says “well you both have SOMETHING between you right”. Madhu in a slight angered voice says “what do you means? We are just friend alight” Malini replies “JUST FRIENDS Oh yeah we BELIEVE you”. Gayathri somehow managed to calm Madhu down and she explained Madhu how there is a rumour going on about Madhu and Anand. It’s not Malini’s fault that she questioned Madhu today, this is what every person who knows Anand and Madhu is been talking about behind their back. Madhu not been satisfied with their explanation leaves the place in an annoyed state of mind.

After reaching home, Madhu did kind of felt bad for getting furious at Malini. Come one what sin did Malini do? She was just reflecting everyone’s view about Madhu and Anand. She thought to herself that But why would everyone talk such things about me and Anand? Don’t they have anything better to do? Why talk about someone else’s private life. What wrong with these people even if we are lovers, in what way it affects them? Why to make it a big deal. Hang on a minute, what did I say to myself now? More than friends? Gosh!! No I said LOVERS!!! Do I myself have these doubts? This is really confusing. It’s better to talk it out with Anand regarding this. Isn’t always good to confront with people rather than bottling up emotions. She texts Anand saying “hey I want to talk to you about something, temme when you are free.” Anand replied back “alright sweety, will call you in 30 minutes”

Something suddenly cropped into Madhu’s mind Anand calling her sweety? Oh and then the other day he called her darling, on some other occasion as sweet heart, honey, baby, sexy, beautiful, gorgeous, sweetie pie, lucky charm….OH GOD what is this. Madhu doesn't let anyone else call her with such names does she? Last month a guy in her college when he called her as “hey sweet heart” she did really get furious about it. And made sure that guy never calls her with those fancy little random names. So when that guy gets such a furious response for calling her “sweet heart” how can she allow Anand only to call her with such weird random names. Madhu is aware of the fact that she “likes” Anand. She wasn't sure until this day that it could have been more than like. Yet now everything makes sense to her. All the events happened between Anand and herself from the day they meet at the party till today, everything appeared in front of her like a flash back. All those beautiful moments, the crazy fights, the pointless late night phone calls, texting each other constantly until they both got tired. She could feel how wonderful where those memories she shared with him.

She can now picture her whole life ahead with Anand being in each and every moment of it. She cannot imagine a life without Anand. Everything with Anand is so perfect. Though he may not be the perfect person on this earth still she knows they both together make a perfect couple. I feel so lucky to have him in her life. She can’t imagine she has already found the love of her life. She realises she not only likes him, but she loves him too. What is that made her to fall for him? She has no clue about that. One thing she knows for sure is that her life would be happy with Anand. She feel as sleep with that same happiness filled inside her heart, mind and soul, dreaming about her future ahead, each and every minute with Anand. Next day morning she wakes up with a new hope for their (herself and Anand’s) future ahead. Everything seems so different to her, different in a good way. However, Madhu have completely forgotten about the fact that Anand hasn't called her back last night. He did tell her he will call her back in 30 minutes. But he hasn't yet it doesn't matter to her now because she is the happiest girl alive on earth now. Instead of getting angry with Anand’ irresponsibleness to call her back she was enjoying the beauty of sun rise while sipping her coffee. Why does she need to worry about just one phone call now, when she has rest of her life to live with Anand. Does this one phone call matter at all?? No way!!  

Later in the day Anand did call back and apologised for not calling back last night. They have planned to meet in the evening at the beach. The time has arrived now. She is on her way to meet him, the man who she is in love with. She is going to express herself to love of her life. The atmosphere in beach has made her feel even more romantic. “The dusking sun smiling in joy, kissing its love of eternity the goddess of Sea, just before its own bedtime, Sea goddess trying to cover their own romance, with her roaring waves” there was Anand just like the sun, waiting from the morning till dusk time to romance with its Sea goddess. Anand was waiting for Madhu. Anand said “You look stunning Madhu” Madhu replied with a smile “Thank you” Anand goes “so what's so urgent you wanted to talk about” Madhu suddenly starts to feel so nervous, she mumbles “errm well.. err, I wanted to tell you…err” Anand “yes Madhu temme what is it”. Nope she couldn't do it at all; she doesn't have enough courage in her to tell him directly that she loves him. She started to think in her head “maybe I should have thought it through? May be spoken to my friends about it? Or might have waited until he express it himself”. Somehow she gathered courage and asked Anand “Who am I to you Anand”, He replied “you? You are my friend Madhu” she was shocked with such a reply from him. Oh no she hasn’t thought about how he might have felt about her, this was such a shocking answer for Madhu. She was EXPECTING something else.

Anand became worried seeing that beautiful blossoming face of Madhu suddenly starting to wither away. Anand asked “is everything alright Madhu” Madhu replied in such a feeble voice “I I.. I… I thought we..we…we are more than friends” Anand smiled and said “oh yes we are not only friends, we are more than that of course”. That very sentence from his mouth made her bloom again into happiness. And with a wide open smile she said “yes yes I knew it !!! Even you are in love with me I knew it, I’m the….” Even before she can finish her sentence Anand interprets her “what??? Love? who told you  I am in love with you? Are you kidding Madhu? I was going to say we are more than friends like best friend not lovers” Madhu “I thought even you loved me” Anand “haha come on Madhu stop being silly, me in love? huh no way. you have just mistaken our friendship for love that’s all” Madhu “mistaken? Then why would you call me as sweety, darling, this that” Anand “hey hey stop its so common yaar to call your best friend, close friend as sweety, darling etc how could you think it as love” Madhu “well I don’t let my other guy friends call me with such fancy names, the late night phone calls, and you coming to Bangalore to see me” Anand “WOAH WOAH girl calm down will you? Just because a guy does all this it doesn't mean he is in love with you got it”. Madhu “Anand but you’re the only guy who did all this in my life” Anand “just because no other guy friend has done all this to you, you cannot mistake my gentle friendly gestures as me being in love or seeing you as a lover sweet heart” Madhu “JUST SHUT UP STOP CALLING ME SWEET HEART” Anand “look whats your problem now? you made me to come all the way up here and now being all dramatic. I don’t love you simple got you answer?” Madhu “yes I did get my answer and I am such a fool to even think you might have love me too” saying thing Madhu just storms away from that place. Anand did try to stop her, but she just carried on. That time it has started to drizzle, as if Sun was feeling pity for Madhu and shedding tears.

Best Friends... (Ch-3)

Previous Chapter - 2 :  http://passionofasoul.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/friend-request-ch-2.html

Madhu is on her way to Bangalore now, cold breeze of the September month brushing against her face and the disturbing thoughts of Anand. She likes him, the way he speak, the soft voice; everything about him came into mind. She hoped he felt the same way about her too. She wanted to hear his voice that very moment. She started wondering when they would meet again. She has already started to plan her next trip to Chennai. Can she call him now? What would he think of her, if she did so? She had so many mixed feelings. She wasn’t sure she can call him now or not. Will he welcome her call in a positive manner or her call would be ignored. After analysing lots of facts and at last she gathered her courage to communicate with Anand. She messaged him, but was really nervous about the response. After around 15 minutes she did see, he had read her messages. But no reply yet. She convinced herself, may be he doesn’t want to reply, in the middle of the night. Just because she is travelling, she hasn’t slept. So she could message or wait for a reply or whatsoever. But he is at home, must be half asleep isn’t it almost midnight already. So he would reply in the morning. In that hope she falls asleep.

She reached Bangalore her dad is driving her back home, after dropping Preethi at the place where she is staying. When she enters home, nothing is the same. It feels completely different, she wasn’t sure what has changed her, but something has. For past four or five years travelling from Bangalore to Chennai is a usual thing for Madhu. Then again this time there is something unusual. She can feel that she is not happy returning back to Bangalore. Anyways, that was just a vacation it’s over now. She has to get back to the normal day to day life. She got freshen up and left to college. The day was so dull for Madhu. Looking at her lack of usual enthusiasm Preethi did question her strange behaviour today. Preethi “What happen to you Madhu, you are not your usual self” Madhu replied with a fake smile “nothing, Preethi I am alright, just a little tired.” And Madhu headed off to her house. Throughout the day Madhu was kept on checking her phone, longing for that one reply from Anand. She just ended her day with disappointment.

On her way back home, she was telling herself that she shouldn’t bother about that Anand. Who is he anyway? Just a random guy she meets at the party so she shouldn’t be worrying about him. Within a couple of hours of her retuning back home. She gets a phone call from Preethi telling her to come immediately to the place where she stays. Madhu wants to distract herself from those stupid thoughts (yes now it is stupid thoughts, because it only gave her disappointments so what’s the use of those thoughts?) hence it’s good that Preethi called her to hangout with. Madhu reached Preethi’s place, and rings the doorbell. The door is opened and a voice says “hi” to her in such a cheerful manner. Madhu is shocked to see that person. Is it dream or reality? Whats happening she is totally confused. By now you might have guessed that was none other than Anand who opened the door for Madhu.

The disappointed face of Madhu suddenly lightens up in happiness. Preethi’s voice wakes Madhu up from her dream world. Then Madhu learns from Preethi that Kathick, Anand and Pradeep came to visit Bangalore because they were bored of Chennai. While everyone else was talking to each other and socialising, there was two pairs of eyes secretly looking at each other. That was of course our Anand and Madhu. Anand stole longing looks at Madhu and would turn around just a split second before Madhu silently threw her looks towards him. She in turn would look away even before he could find out that she was watching him. They all decided to go out for dinner. Likewise, all five of them Preethi, Madhu, Anand, Karthick and Pradeep was spending time together for next one day. Karthick and Pradeep did leave for Chennai the very next day evening. Anand somehow managed to stay behind in Bangalore. He told the guys Karthick and Pradeep his distant relative uncle, wants him to stay for another week in Bangalore. While he told that distant relative uncle (and his own parents) that he had some college project work. So he has to stay in Bangalore for another one week. 

After Karthick and Pradeep left to Chennai, Anand continued to meet Madhu but they made sure Preethi doesn’t find this out. After a week Anand leaves to Chennai, however not whole heartedly. After coming to Chennai, Anand feels as if he has left something of his own out there in Banglore. From September, till now mid-December it’s been nearly four months. Since Anand and Madhu has become from strangers to best friends. Strangers from best friends, when they both live like 346 KM away from each other are you kidding passionate soul? (I can hear you asking me this question) Why not you my reader? Why not? For two strangers to evolve into friends then to best friends just the emotional bonding between them is more than enough (at least for some of them anyway). We live in a technology era right. These two souls had technology like Skype, Whats app, Viber, Blackberry messenger, email, Facebook, and our classic means of communication cell phone. These technologies came in handy for these two souls to evolve from friends into best friends.

it was a friday night, Anand and Madhu over the phone;

Anand: I can’t wait to see you…!!!

Madhu: (with a gentle smile) you will see me tomorrow…!!!

Anand: will meet you at 5 p.m. in the evening…?

Madhu: yes, sure I had to go meet friends in the day time. Let’s meet up in the evening

Anand: Sure, no problem

Madhu: shall I keep the phone down…??

Anand: why so soon? Talk for some more time…!!!

Madhu: comeone Anand..!!! I need to get ready, I can’t miss my train right…!!!

Anand: hmm..!! (with a big sigh) true, still I miss you..!!!

Madhu: we are gonna see each other tomorrow…!!! Bye pls let me go now..!!

Anand: hmmm..alright bye, have a safe journey…!!!

Madhu: bye cya tomorrow…!!!

Immediately after Madhu hangs up the phone, Anand’s phone rings now. Its Barath a tiny part of their conversation goes like; in a happy note says “Madhu is coming to Chennai tomorrow”. Barath says, “hmm..but I don’t like the way things, go between you both”. Anand “Oh come on, nothing strange its just usual”. Barath “Yeah that’s my worry.” Anand “hey we are JUST friends”. Barath “hmmm, lets see”.

We can see that Barath doesn’t like Anand being close with Madhu. But why though? Barath is Anand’s best friend. He should be happy for Anand and Madhu. What could it be, making Barath to speak in such ways? May be Madhu is Barath’s ex girl friend? Or Barath likes Madhu too? or Barath is jealous his friend is getting a girl’s attention when he himself is still single? These might be the possible reasons, yet what’s the actual reason behind it? let’s find out sooner. May be after Madhu comes to Chennai we might able to figure out, the reasons for Barath’s strange talks. Untill then to be continued….

Friend Request (Ch -2)

Previous Chapter - 1 :  http://passionofasoul.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/first-meet.html

Anand is surprised with himself, how can he fail to notice such an amazing doll Madhu. It is a very big crime for a guy like Anand. He is a kind of a guy, who always gets the best score among female crowd especially the pretty ones like Madhu. Anand did go to one of those extreme strict (Engineering) colleges where the concept of co-education has been jailed in the name of management rules. If you are from South India probably you would know for sure what I am talking about here. For others, lets me walk you through those weird college experiences. The students has to be dressed in certain way, their hair styles, side burns for guys, are monitored. If any student is found to be going out of the dress code they are faced with consequences. Basically, guys and girls are not allowed to talk to each other inside their college campus. 

What?? Are you serious passionate soul? Does these things ever exists are your living in some olden days era? I can hear you people asking me this question. But, this is the truth. Even though Anand is among those poor souls who had to go through this torcher, yet he managed to be a guy who can charm any girl with ease.So what’s next for Anand? Obviously getting closer with Madhu, automatically his mouse clicks the “FRIEND REQUEST” icon on her profile. He drops an inbox message to Madhu, just in case what if she takes ages to respond to the friend request. Just in 2 minutes he gets a reply from her. BINGO…!!!! Their conversation continues for another 2 hours more or less. 

Hey you passionate soul, how can Madhu chat with this guy for this long. Remember when the meet you said she was a bit rude to him. She wasn’t being friendly at all. So how is this possible now? Come on my confused reader Madhu is a typical girl. She is supposed to be acting not interested face to face even though she is interested compared to the Facebook chat where all these rules doesn't apply. I can hear my male reader saying “ha ha spot on passionate soul, we have seen girls do this annoying thing a lot” and my female reader, saying “Ouch passionate soul why did you tell the truth out?” 

an example conversation between Anand and Madhu:

Anand: “So Madhu which college are you studying?”

Madhu: “I don’t think I have to tell you this”

Anand: “hey come on yaar what am I gonna do. Whats wrong in telling that”

Madhu: “I don’t see it’s necessary to tell u al that, did you tell about your college?”

Anand: “haha good question, I am from Engineer College”

Madhu: “oh which department?”

Anand: “CSE department yaar, how about you?”

Madhu: “just because you are stupid enough to tell all your details. It doesn’t mean I am a stupid one too, to tell you about me”

Anand: “huh? What??”

Madhu: “Okey I am a final year BBA student. I gotto go now bye”

Anand: “hey which college temme that and go”

Madhu goes offline, and he doesn’t get any reply after that. You might have got an idea how she would have replied to him in these 2 hours. But still, he liked her way of response and he liked him too. Otherwise why would she waste her time in talking to him? So passionate soul can you tell us how did Madhu felt about Anand.

Well after the party, or I should say even during the party when Anand was talking to Madhu. She liked him all along. She doesn’t know the reason what made her to get attracted to him. She kept on thinking about it after the party (obviously, before that Facebook conversation with him). Is it that manly look of Anand? The 5 feet 11 inch tallness of him she wasn’t sure is he 5.11 or 6 inch tall? the wheatish (not whitish) complexion of him or that confident smile he put across which obviously enlarges in size when he is talking to a pretty girl or the soft romantic voice of him? She doesn’t able to figure out what attracts her towards him. Only one thing she is sure of he is not like the other men she has seen so far in her life and there is something quite unique about Anand. However, she did make sure her liking towards him is not visible to anyone in the party. Even during their Facebook chat she was so conscious about he shouldn't find out that she likes him. Now this would have answered your question why would Madhu behave in such strange ways towards Anand so far.

This is next day evening around 4 p.m.; our hero has managed to find Madhu’s phone number. He whats app’s Madhu now. (Dear reader if you are not sure what this “WHATS APP” is, it is a kind of messenger application in the smartphones for more details just Google it) She is Happy at the same time surprised to see a message from Anand. The first thing she does is add him to her contacts (don’t Question me how she found out it was Anand? Obviously the display picture tells that FACT). Their conversation continues as:

Anand: “Hey Madhu Anand hereJ”

Madhu: “Anand? Which Anand” (Obviously she knows, but she has to show some attitude rite)

Anand: “the same Anand with whom you went on a movie date last week”

Madhu: “huh when did I go to movies with you?”

Anand: “you know very well who it is. Still showing attitude eh..?? That’s why made up a story”

Madhu: “haha lol a good one”

Anand: “Thanks so wat you up to?”

Anand thinks in his mind “all these girls are the same. They show you attitude until you come up with something like this. Girls and their stupid fake attitude”

Madhu: “hmm nothing much, just packing”

Anand: “oh going somewhere?”

Madhu: “yes”

Anand: “where? When?”

Madhu: “today for 6pm bus to Banglore”

Anand: “why to Banglore”

Madhu: “well that’s where I study right, college starts from tomorrow”

Anand: “WHATTTTTTTTTTTTT?? You stay In Banglore? You never told me”

Madhu: “well you never asked me. K I gotto go cya bye”

Anand is shocked know, all this dreams of getting closer to Madhu, roaming around with her, the movie date everything is ruined now. How on earth all this is going to happen between them. When she is staying like 346 KM away from him. Anyway what did she say at last? Her last words? “CYA” which echoed into his ears like “I want to SEE YOU Anand”. So he rushes to meet Pradeep, only now he recollects from his memory that Pradeep’s sister Preethi is studying in Banglore for past two years. Oh damn...!!! now it all makes sense. Now he knows why he hasn’t seen Madhu uptill yesterday, given the fact they have mutual friends.

I can hear you scolding me “Hey you passionate soul, you said Madhu and Anand are going to be lovers. You gave us a beautiful first meet of them. But why do you have to ruin it all?? By making Madhu study in Banglore?” ha ha my dear reader that’s the thrill. Come one I need something or the other to raise your blood pressure right? So whats going to happen next? Wil reveal in my next chatper. Do keep visiting my Blog regularly, bookmark the page, or subscribe it via email. Somehow do come back for more. As of now to be continued…

Short Story Their Ignorance...

Their Ignorance... 

That was a Saturday evening, Raghav reaches home after an outing with his friends. As soon as he enters, Mom started her usual bickering about how much he wastes money and always roaming around with friends. He cajoled his mom by giving, a smooch in her cheeks. His usual way of stopping his moms' complains. This technique has always worked well for him. Mom hands him over the black coffee by throwing along her usual affectionate smile. He enters his room with coffee in one hand and turns on the music on the laptop. There rings his phone, who was it? it was Ramya as soon as he saw  her name his face lights up. Who is Ramya? Is she his girlfriend? NO!! then his crush? NO NO!! She is his best friend. You may be wondering why would his face light up for a best friend? Only god knows the answer for it. Because Raghav is one of those weird guys who doesn’t have a clue about what he is doing. He attends the call;

Raghav: Hiiiiii Ramyaaaaaaa !!! (with such an excited voice)

Ramya: Hey Raghav, how are you? (wow that sweet voice, to which he can never get bored of)

Raghav: I am good how are you? Been a one whole week you busy bee!!!

Ramya: I know, I am sorry Raghav. You know I had exams this that couldn’t attend you calls but I did message you. But you didn’t reply back

Raghav: well uhm…you know I am not good at messaging. I love talking but not messaging.

Ramya: ha ha I know so how was your day?

The conversation continues for another 15 minutes. Please don’t ask what they were talking about, just the usual unnecessary stuff every guy and a girl would talk over phone for no apparent reason.

Raghav: did you see this new movie “Matraan”.

Ramya: oh yes I did it was such an awesome movie. I LOVED IT to the core you know.

Raghav: me too loved it so much.

Ramya : who was your favourite? For me its Akilan such a funny character. He reminds me of Vinoth

Raghav: Vinoth? Seriously again him!!!

Ramya: why Raghav whats wrong in talking about Vinoth?

Raghav: nothing, just change the topic yaar

Ramya: no  no  tell me whats wrong in that?

Raghav: well well well, how to tell you hmmm….ahan you saw the movie Maatran right. Do you remember the scene where Akilan, Vimalan and Kajal plays a lie game.

Ramya: yeah yeah I do remember. But what does it has to do with Vinoth now?

Raghav: if I say in that manner the lie game manner,

“I feel irritated hearing to your voice, I don’t like to see your face at all, and I am not at all jealous when you talk about VINOTH”

Ramya: Raghav what is this why do you get jealous when I talk about Vinoth.

Raghav: Because he is your ex. there has already been a guy in your life who is very dear and special to you. That fact annoys me, irritates me, makes me jealous.

Ramya: what are you kidding; when I talk about my EX you get annoyed. Haven’t you spoken about your past EX(s)? For me it’s just Vinoth only. But you have many EX girlfriends. I don’t get jealous or annoyed when you talk about them.

Raghav: yes because I don’t always talk about my EX, unlike you who always 24/7 talking about your EX Vinoth.

Ramya: you’re such a selfish hypocrite Raghav….

Raghav: shut up Ramya!! You always talk a lot about Vinoth. As if you don’t have a life without Vinoth

Ramya: that is true Raghav. He is the only EX for me. For God’s sake it was a whole two year relationship. Of course he is going to be there in every part of my past.

Raghav: JUST two years right. Didn’t you have a life before you got committed to him? Cannot you talk about that? Whatever I say for most of the things. You have a story to narrate about. I like the way you describe things. But each and everything you had to include VINOTH in that. Which annoys me so much it just irrrrrrritatess mee…

The argument continues for another 2 minutes and the conversation ended with both of them saying don’t call me ever. I won’t talk to you our friendship ends here. Just one small one phone can make this much hassle? Possibly you all can understand this, each and every one of you reading this might have undergone similar situation at some point of time in their life.

Raghav gets his diary out and starts jotting down in that same rage after the phone call.

Dear diary,

What did I do now? I did the correct thing right. She always talks about that idiot VINOTH and annoys me. I told her not to talk about him. She doesn’t want to listen and picked up a fight. when she says don’t call me here after, how can I say “please don’t say that Ramya how can I be without talking to you”. I have my own pride too, I need to guard it. Why cannot she understand I cannt she understand me. I miss her now. Why does she have to be so dumb?

Ramya thinks to herself, all men are the same. I talk about Vinoth because this idiot Raghav always talks about some random girl one of his EXs from past. When he tlaks about some girl, how can I just nod my head and listen to it. That’s why I talk about Vinoth deliberately. Why cannot he understand that? Or maybe I overdo it? I am so confused. Her phone rings now.

Ramya: Hello…

Raghav: Hi (a long pause)

Ramya: yeah

Raghav: can we meet now? I need to tell you something

Ramya: Now? But why

Raghav: Just come please the usual Anna Nagar coffee shop

Ramya: hmmmm see you in 45 minutes.

Raghav: yeah sure will be waiting for you

Ramaya is so confused now. Why does he want to meet now? To fight more, argument more and blame me further? He is gone crazy for sure. She reaches the coffee shop there he is waiting for her.

Raghav: Hi (with a big smile on his face)

Ramya: Hi (why is he smiling now, we are fighting did he forget even that)

Raghav: I don’t want you to be my girlfriend Ramya

Ramya: what the hell. When did I tell you I want to be your girlfriend?

Raghav: I don’t want you to be my lover.

Ramya: huh ? what are you blaberring?

Raghav: I just want you to be with me forever, just grow old with me. Will you?

Ramya: Raghav (She is shocked, surprised to hear such a thing from him)

Raghav: yes Ramya I love you. Be with me forever. Don’t ask me from when I started loving you. But one thing is for sure. Form this very moment I will love you forever, for eternity more and more each day.

Ramya: but..eermm hmm…I need…I time… (She couldn’t control that surprised big smile on her face)

Raghav: I know Ramya you too love me just accept it (Ramya accepts it with her cute smile)

Raghav was ignorant of his own feeling for Ramya. So does she. They both laughed at each other’s ignorance. From that day onwards they both where the best couple, yes they did start their journey to grow old with each other. Raghav and Ramya where one among those lucky couples, best friends turned into lovers....

First meet... (Ch -1)

 On a September evening at 5.45 pm Madhumitha was struck in the rush hour traffic of the Chennai city. By 6.00 pm  She needs to be at Preethi’s place. How on earth is she going to reach T-Nagar from Ashok Nagar in just 15 minutes? Preethi is going to get upset for sure. Of course she would be upset, because it’s her birthday and Madhumitha is one among her 4 best friends. Anyhow at least by 6.45 pm  now Madhumitha has reached Preethi’s house. There was Madhu’s little crew waiting for her arrival Gayathri (Gayu), Malini (Malu), Abirami (Abi). 

As soon Madhu arrived Preethi started to cut her Birthday cake. Preethi was waiting for her best friend Madhu to reach. Now Malini goes "hey look there two good looking guys in that crowd. The Blue shirt and Black shirt" pointing at the group of guys laughing, cracking up jokes and talking to each other. They are Preethi’s twin brother Pradeep’s friends. On a reply to Malini’s statement Abi said "oh god please, when are you going to stop talking about guys. I am fed up of you." Malini replied "yeah right you saint no wonder you are still single." Then Madhu "Malu you always talk about guys this that etc., then why aren't you in a relationship yet? Stop embarrassing Abi." Malini always shuts up when Madhumitha or Preethi says something to her. Because they both are smart and witty girls who make sure Malini is kept under control from embarrassing anyone.

Now the most annoying time that any birthday girl/boy would hate has come. Yes it’s the birthday bumps time. Since Preethi is a girl she was spared from any birthday bumps, but she had to go through the torture of cake make-up on her face. Preethi’s friends took care of cake make-up on her face and Pradeep’s friends did the honour of birthday bumps to him. In this chaos situation, accidentally the blue shirt guy poured Pepsi on Madhu’s light green Salwar. The guy in blue shirt goes “Hey I am sorry really sorry sorry”, Madhu with a fake smile “that’s alright no problem.” Meanwhile Abi jumps into the conversation and scolds the blue shirt guy who spilled Pepsi on Madhu. Malini is really worried right now and tries to control Abi. Since the guy in the blue shirt is one of the two good looking guys spotted by Malini earlier, no wonder she tries to defend him.

Now the black shirt guy looking at Madhu says “hey come on yaar it’s just Pepsi. Stop making it a big deal.”

Madhu: “huh? JUST Pepsi?

Black Shirt Guy: “yes yaar it is just Pepsi, it will go away when you wash it off”

Madhu: “will you stop calling me Yaar? I am not your Yaar!!! Mind it!! Go and call you Girl Friend with all that”

Black Shirt Guy: “Hello, we can call a friend as Yaar too” and he enjoys at the way Madhu gets irritated with him.

Madhu: “Whatever don’t call me Yaar!!”

The situation was brought under control by Pradeep. By now you would have guessed who that Black shirt Guy is; yes you are right that’s our hero Anand. While have dinner at the birthday party. Pradeep introduced his friends to Preethi’s friends. Now Malini finds out the name of blue shirt guy (Karthick) and black shirt guy (Anand). Anand strikes up a conversation with Madhu.

Anand: “hi, I am Anand”

Madhu: “okay”

Anand: “hello you are supposed to say your names miss”

Madhu: “did you hear Preethi call me as Madhu earlier”

Anand: “that doesn't mean that you cannot tell once again”

Madhu: “I don’t talk unnecessarily”

Anand: “if so, then you shouldn't have said that fact itself, since you told it, this is an unnecessary talk. So you do talk unnecessarily”

Madhu: “arrghh can you stop annoying me now”

Anand: “ha ha, so which college are you madhu?”

Madhu: “I don’t have to tell you all that”

Anand: “ha ha your wish madam”

The the party is over now, Anand had reached home. For some reason he is not able to sleep today. What could it be disturbing our Romeo? His phone rings with the ringtone

“Vizhi Moodi” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SMfBiTVEvE )

This is Anand’s ringtone, but it hasn’t disturbed him ever so far. But why would it make him feel different right now? those where the thoughts running in his mind with that 3 second gap before attending the call, It was Karthick As usual complaining about his girlfriend. Anand was not paying much attention to Karthick. This was quiet unusual of him. When Karthick started to fire him with questions, Anand somehow tackled the situation. Karthick did ask “dude what happen? Do you miss Meera? Is that why you are quiet unusual now?” Anand replied “Meera? no no noway, why would I miss her? I am just tired going to sleep I guess”. 

After the phone call, Anand smiled to himself thinking “why would I miss that female Meera, she is such a pain.” Crops up a notification on his laptop with a sound “ping.” It was the party photos Preethi have already uploaded them. Thanks to Preethi looking at those pictures now Anand knows the reason for his sleepless night today. Yes you have guessed right!! Anand is smitten by Madhu. Looking at her pictures, those dark brown magnetic eyes where giving out warm beautiful gaze. Madhu has a beautiful smile. Anand realises he has a crush on Madhu. But how did he not notice this alluring smile of her when she was just 5 feet away from him.

Introduction...

Today is 21/12/2012; Doomsday is the hot topic in every nook and corner of the world. But for Madhumitha 21/12/2012 is not a Doomsday it’s her dreams-day. Yes a day when she realises all her dreams about love has come true. On this very day Madhu loves her life so much. What could be happening to her? Making her feel the most luckiest girl on this earth? Did she win a lottery? Did she become a Hollywood star overnight? What is so important happened to her today making her to float on a cloud nine. Today was her engagement to Anand . Madhu’s family, friends, and relatives everyone is happy for her. By now you must have guessed “is this some sort of love marriage”? Some of you have thought as “Oh god again the same thing, someone blabbering about love story. I have had enough of these crazy romantic people. Who are always talking about love love love…please give me a break."  To those who pretend to act as if they don’t like love. Love is an essential part of life, love is there everywhere. 

Look around you, can you see love being surrounded by you in all means. The affection between you and your parents is love. The tiny little fights between you and your sibling(s) are love. The care between you and a 10 year long friend is love. Even when you’re living a luxurious life far away from your motherland, the very moment something remainds you of that precious country where you were born. Don’t you say it out loud “I love you my country.” You have fallen in love with your own culture, tradition, habitat of your motherland the things you used to do there everything. Did I forget someone? Yes I did the cute little pet you own. Don’t you love that little creature? See you have already experienced love soo many times. Before even reaching your teen years you have already been in love too many times. So why would you pretend to dislike the love between two souls like Madhumitha and Anand. Please at least now start being your true self it’s not too late yet.

No one can deny love in any form. All kinds of love together make our life beautiful. But why do these authors, screenwriters and film director’s emphasis more on a love between the lovers. Some people might argue that hormones and the chemical reaction in them have a role to play in this kind of love. Whatever it might be, everyone becomes a victim of this so called feeling love. Some are lucky enough to spend their life with that love. Most hide it away from the world and live their life with the memories of their love. Few are gifted enough to spread the feeling of love to the world. Those authors, screenwriters, and film directors come under this few gifted ones category. Yes they have a talent of making you fall in love with the idea of love. No one can ever make you understand what love is. You had to experience the feeling of love to understand it. These gifted people are fortunate souls who can bring you those experiences in various forms like a romantic novel, a love story movie etc. Let’s start exploring the feeling of love through Madhumitha and Anand’s love story. Are these two souls lucky enough to spend their life together? or did they hide it away like most others and going to live only with the memories of their love? Lets start our journey to find out did the two hearts merged as one.

This is my own Scribbling about Love. Going to pen down the journey of two young hearts. The fictional characters Madhumitha and Anand. The journey of love that merged these two young hearts into one.
