"Rahul! Neethu is going alone. I felt that it was not safe for her. Let me go together with her. Don't want to wait for me Rahul. You go to home," said Rithick, worriedly.

"Nope! I can't go, leaving you alone. I will wait for you Rithick," said Rahul.

"My dear Rahul! Please, It's getting late," requested Rithick.

Rithick phone rang. The screen displayed his mom's face. He took the phone immediately.

"Rithick! Where are you?" asked Rithick's mom.

"Mom! I am in college. Rahul will come now. I will come within half an hour mom," chuckled Rithick.

"Why? What happened? Any problem?" asked his mom, tensely.

"Nope! Don't worry. Take care mom," Rithick cut the call.

"Rahul! Can you do a favor?" asked Rithick

"Of course, Rithick!"

"Please, you go to home, I will be ok. Also ask the driver uncle to park my bike in the college. I wish to enjoy my happiness in my bike," Rithick nearly begged Rahul to go to home.

Rahul could feel the happiness in Rithick words. He don't want to spoil it.

"Okay Rithick! You had driven the bike before years. Are you sure?" asked Rahul, caringly.

"Yup!" smiled Rithick.

"Take care," said Rahul and he walked towards the car.

Rithick could see Neethu in far apart. He moved towards her quickly.

"Neethu! Neethu!" He called out her name, intermittently.

Neethu could hear someone was calling. She couldn't sense that the voice was Rithick. She started to step up faster.

He could guess, what Neethu would think. "Neethu! It's me Rithick. Wait a second," yelled Rithick.

Neethu turned back immediately. He could see Rithick moving towards her. She couldn't express her happiness in words. She stood spellbound.

Rithick was only few steps back to Neethu. He walked faster as much he could. Neethu raised the umbrella above his head at once he reached nearer to her. They both were in the single umbrella, it didn't comforts them. Both tried to keep a distance so both were drenching again by the water drops falling from the umbrella.

"Why you came here Rithick? It's too late! you go to home"

"I know but I can't go home leaving you alone" he said.

"Why?" She asked, seeing him.

"Only your words said that I will go alone but your eyes didn't. Am I correct?" smiled Rithick.

"Yup! You are right Rithick. This place pretended me to scare actually" she winged her eyes.

"Are you okay now?" asked him, caringly.

"Yup! Of course Rithick. I feel safe and comfort if you are nearer to me."

Rithick couldn't control his happiness.

"Okay! Are you scared of me Rithick? I won't do anything come inside the umbrella," said Neethu, innocently.

He refused to move closer to her though he wanted to be close to Neethu. He was still drenching.

"Come on Rithick! I never mistake you"

He shook his head. He couldn't move nearer to her.

"Okay! I am drenching in rain. You hold this umbrella" said Neethu and she showed the umbrella to Rithick.

"Nope!"

"Then come inside the umbrella Rithick!"

Rithick responded by his cute smile.

"Will you come inside or not?" She wrapped her hand around him to take him inside the umbrella to stop him drenching. He wrapped his hand around her waist without his knowledge.

"Girl! What doing? Making me giggling" chuckled him. Oh God! Rithick couldn't control his happiness at once she holded him.

"Nope! I didn't do anything. You are drenching in rain so I have holded you," said Neethu.

"Why you are holding me? Leave me" sighed Neethu.

"You are drenching in rain so I embraced you," echoed Rithick, what she said.

Both had a laughter.

"Did you like me Neethu?" asked Rithick with lots of love for her.

Neethu looked into his eyes and said, "I like you at the day first itself dumb Rithick! If I talk to You and Rahul, It's like the feeling I am with my parents."

"Girl! Stop saying the word dumb!" kidding Rithick. He felt shyness if she use the word dumb.

Neethu laughed at Rithick.

"Why are you laughing? Did I tell anything joke?" inquired Rithick.

"Nope! Cool down! Really, I am happy Rithick," He enjoyed the moments with her.

"Okay! how far is your hostel from here?" asked Rithick. He longed for a long walk together with Neethu.

Neethu pointed out the hostel to him "Only few steps more Rithick!"

"Oh God! Damn hostel," said Rithick

"Why Rithick? It looks pretty beautiful"

"Beauty! What a beauty?" he chaffed.

"Rithick! This is too much," They neared the hostel.

"Bye! take care Rithick" said Neethu by loosening her hands.

"Ok bye!" said Rithick, fretfuly.

She stepped into the hostel.

"Rithick! Will you go alone?" Kidding Neethu.

He laughed, "Yup! Bye"

Rithick then walked towards the green park. He was thinking each and every moment he spent with Neethu. He was in his own dream totally he forgotten himself. He never imagined the day would end in such a special moment.

He could see his bike parking in the vehicle stand. He was crazy to drive bike but his parents won't allow him. After five years, he was going to enjoy his moments in his bike. He was in the spirit of rejoicing.

Rithick phone rang. It was Rahul.

Rithick picked the phone saying "Rahul! you are jealous of me man! You have asked to park my old bike, Right? Okay! It's not a problem. Anyway, Thanks Rahul!" exclaimed Rithick, excitedly.

"Drive slowly!Safety is important Rithick! Take care," said Rahul.

"Sure, Of course Rahul!" he hanged the phone.

He was happy to ride the bike after a long. He was seated in the bike and he kept his hands in the handlebars. He had given all his force in the handlebars which made him to realize that he was nearly flying in air. His jet speed made him to overtake all the others in the road.

He was damn happy. He shouted like when the children shouted while playing in dragons. Everyone in the road were seeing him like a strange man. He was overtaking all the other vehicles in the road.

He then overtake the couples riding in the bike. His speed automatically get reduced. He felt happy to see that newly married couple with a baby in the lady's hand. The baby showered a smile at Rithick. He showed his cute smile by waving his hand. The baby too waved the hand at Rithick.

His heart pounded the name 'Neethu!' He was gone crazy for her. His speed reduced slowly and now he was as slow as a bicycle rider. His lips don't forget to smile while driving and he showed lots of expression without his knowledge.

He was not aware of the two missed calls. Again, his phone peeped, the phone flashed the name Riya. He stopped the bike and attended the phone.

"Rithick anna! Where are you now?" asked Riya, worriedly. (Anna - elder brother)

"I will reach within 5minutes Riya"

"Aunt, Mom worrying about you Anna! Please, Come soon,"

"Okay, tell them Riya" he hanged the phone.

He could notice a strange man with a helmet. The strange man slowed down his bike as he had stopped the bike. He could see the strange man in his rear end mirror in the bike. He took casually and started his bike.

The strange man was still following him. Rithick got doubt and he slowed down the speed to view the strange man but he couldn't guess out. He had driven in alternate path to catch the stranger red-handed.

Rithick stopped his bike. The stranger was caught by Rithick Red-handed. The stranger tried to turn his bike but he couldn't escape from Rithick.

Rithick moved towards the stranger. He pulled the collar of the stranger and removed the helmet of the stranger. He was merely in shock to see his Rahul.

Rithick hugged Rahul and patted his shoulder.

"You damn fellow! Why you are following me? Are you mad?" questioned Rithick. They didn't loosened their hug instead they hugged tightly and emotionally.
