Chapter 5 - Five Miracles of Maitri (FMM)

Varadha university is very big and luxurious. Same goes with the garden. It's quiet and very peaceful. One could see green anywhere their eyes went. Sehanna and Mari where sitting under a huge tree. They could see the withered leaves fall to the ground along with the gentle breeze. They where eating lunch brought by Mari.

Sehanna, "hmmmm... its yummy, you have got so many side dishes that I like". She was eating happily.

"Thank you, it was made by my family's cook. The foods that she cooks are all delicious" said Mari.

Sehanna was curious and asked, "I was wondering for a while, why did you bring lunch from home when the school itself has a luxurious cafeteria?"

Mari was surprised at the unexpected question and got flustered "oh... it's just that I like food from home".

Shehanna noticed Mari's hesitation and thought, "Did I make her uncomfortable? She is hiding something but didn't want to talk about that". Since the question made Mari restless Sehanna changed the subject by asking her, "so... what is FMM?" with so much curiosity.

Mari started explaining about FMM. "Seha, you know about the history of Maitri city right?"

"A little bit. It's about how the people got Shakti (Maya and Mantra) right. I only know a little about it since I don't like history". Sehanna was embarrassed.

"That's too bad. Even little kids know about the Maitri history". Someone said with a low and deep voice from the back.

Sehanna was surprised. As they turned back, there stood a girl with long, deep blonde hairs which was tied in a single pony. With blue eyes, she looked elegant standing there with here hands crossed at her breasts.

Mari got exited and happily, "Nina! you are here". Then she got angry, "where have you been? Why didn't you attend the morning classes?".

Nina came and sat on ground with them and said in a cool manner, "Calm down. I went out for work and came back this morning, so I was late for school". She looked at Sehanna, who was eating lunch calmly looking at them.

Mari introduced them to each other. "Seha, this is Nina Patil. Nina, this is Sehanna Avrav".

Sehanna thought to herself, "oh..I have heard this name before." She smiling said, "Hi, nice to meet you".

Nina was also shocked hearing the name Avrav and smiled back saying "I never thought that I would meet an Avrav here. It's my pleasure".

The three of them clicked together nicely. So they got very close. Sehanna thought to herself "It feels nice to have friends after all".

Nina asked, "Why where you guys talking about history of Maitri?".

"I was about to explain FMM" said Mari.

Nina understood and said "that explains why you where talking about the history. You should start from the beginning then".

Mari sighed, "Ok. I will start from the beginning then". She began explaining. Maitri city was known as the very ancient city that still existed form so many centuries in the entire country. There was a legend that, there where people who got Shakti from an unknown source and it was passed on from generations to generations even till now.

Nina continued, "I have searched so many ancient books but I couldn't find the source of the Shakti. There is a rumor that only few people know about it but I don't know who they are".

Seha replied, "hoooooo....". She was still eating lunch.

"The history says that when the people got the Shakti, within them, few got most powerful and they represent the five elements of nature". Nina further continued the story.

Mari nodding her head said, "Yes, and the family of these people got famous, rich and obviously very powerful. Also, there is another legend which says that for every thousand years within these family, some childrens were born with special Shakti and are more powerful than anyone".

Gentle wind was blowing. Tree branches were swinging along with the blowing wind while the leaves where still falling. Sehanna finished her lunch and asked, "What is it got to do with FMM?".

"It has got everything to do with FMM. Like I said, the powerful children born for every thousand years are the FMM. The FIVE MIRACLES OF MAITRI."

"And they are Dhruv Agni, who represents Agni the fire. Dhin Varuna, who represents Varuna the water. Rath Bhoomi, who represents Bhoomi the earth, Moun Bhanu, who represents Bhanu the sky and the lost of five Ajay Vayu, who represents Vayu the Wind.

Sehanna was surprised. She wondered. "What is this? How come I didn't know such information. Shashi and Kaya definitely knows about this too but they didn't tell me. No, rather they choose not to. I can understand why though".

In the cafeteria the FMM group was having lunch. The cafeteria was luxurious so were the different kinds of food. It was spacious and looked like a high-class restaurant. The five boys were sitting in a place that was reserved only for them. Every other students were looking at them. Some with respect, some boys with envey, and most of the girls passionately in a dreamy state.

Rath asked, "Ajay, why did you lash out on that girl like that? I never saw you like that before".

Dhruv joined in, "Yep, I was surprised too. I know she beat us in the exam. That's interesting but I don't understand why you did that".

Ajay loosened his angry face, "Honestly, I don't know why either".

The boys were surprised with his reply.

Dhin asked, "What are you saying?".

Ajay was in confusion. "Like I said, I don't know why. All that my mind thinking was that I know her from somewhere. I don't know where I have seen her or when I have seen her. My mind was getting blanked from thinking about her. At that time I didn't know how to approach her so it happened like that. My heart feels uneasy".

Moun with a straight face said, "If thinking about her makes you uneasy, then don't think about her".

The boys lookd at him and Rath said pountingly, "There you again, you are so hard headed you know".

Moun continued, "So what? Why are we even talking about an unimportant person".

Dhin tried to ease the situation, "Calm down Moun". He then turned towards Ajay and asked, "It seems like you know her but you don't remember her. Perhaps you guys met long ago but forgot about it"?

"That doesn't seems to be the case because once he sees something, he never forgets. That's how strong his memory power is", Dhruv said it with confidence.

Rath asked with a worried face, "then how do you know her?". The four boys had never seen Ajay like this before in a confused state so they were worried.

Ajay answered in a irritated voice, "I said, I feel like I know her but not really know her. Agrrrrrr... I am getting headache thinking about this". He put his hand on his head, his headache was getting stronger.

"Stop talking about her already. What's so special about her that everyone is interested towards her. Remember, we don't trust anyone, everyone looks at us like objects. She is just like other people".

The boys got silent. They looked lonely even after being the centre of attention of everyone. They also didn't trust anyone other than themselves. Life has taught them that. Being powerful also had it disadvantages.

The bell rang indicating the end of lunch break. Every students started moving towards their classrooms and so did the FMM.

Sehanna and her new found friends were walking from the garden towards their classroom.

Mari with excitement, "We should exchange the phone numbers".

Nina agreed. "You are right".

Sehanna laughed as she took out her phone from the pocket saying, "Sure".

The girls exchanged their phone numbers.

On the way to the classroom room Ajay saw her as she laughed and talked. She looked happy and he thought, "I am glad that she is happy. Wait, What?". He was surprised at his own thoughts. "Why am I thinking like this?". He began questioning himself but couldn't get any answer.

Beside him Moun said, "Lets go".

Coming out of his thoughts, Ajay walked in with him.

It was already night. In Avrav family household Sehanna and Kaya were having dinner. All the dishes were favorites of Shashi but Shashi was tied by the rope near the dining table.

Shashi was crying saying, "I know what I did wrong but you guys are being too mean". He was also drooling.

But both of them ignored him.

Shehanna asked Kaya, "Where is Blue? Why is he not joining for dinner?".

Kaya replied like she didn't care, "He is pouting for not letting him go with you".

Sehanna started putting all the dishes into different plates and asked kaya, "Is he in his room?".

"No, he is near the training ground". Replied Kaya.

Sehanna took the plates that were now filled with all the food and walked out of the house.

Shashi yelld her, "This is too much Seha. I am the one who is hungry and here you are taking my food to some mutt. I am your father".

Sehanna ignored him and walked away.

Shashi looked at Kaya sadly, "Ka....ya....."

Kaya turnned her back towards him and continued eating and said "You reap what you sow".
