Chapter 6 - Did I choose a wrong seat?

Aaradhana 's POV:

I woke up early in morning and found that Poorva athai is cooking breakfast in kitchen.I went to help her. Initially she told me to take rest as it is only "6" in morning.I felt a motherly love from my athai.

Flashback:

Chinamma- "Wake up you rascal.Its already 5 in the morning.Maharani wants to sleep till 10 it seems"

(Telling this she takes a wooden stick and beats in aara's feet to wake her up.Aara screams and wakes up)

Aaradhana - Don't beat me chinamma.I'll not repeat this again .I'll go and wash clothes and prepare breakfast

Chinamma- Better don't repeat this again or else you know what I ll do.

Present:

Hiding my tears.I smiled to athai and told "Athai , I woke up already ,I ll help you in breakfast ".After sometime I saw Arjun hugging his mom. I envy him a lot as he has such a loving mother,dad,anitha .unlike me who is getting a fake love from my chinamma,appa and anna.Once athai intoduced me to him he told "Hi aaradhana".

(It pained in my heart as he used to call me "Aara").

I told myself (May be he forgot me .He would not like if I call "Arju" its better to call him "Arjun").

I replied "Hi Arjun".After that he didn't reply and went away. After breakfast My athai asked him to drop me at hostel

As I knww he don't like me, without waiting for his answer I told athai ," I'll leave by bus".

At hostel:

Once I reached hostel ,it was already 7.50 ,My college begins at 8.30. As I missed 2 months of class already,I don't want to miss anymore. I wore a black churidar with red and orange mixed bandhini shawl.I wore 2 thread filled plastic bangle of red colour(as they don't make much noise) in my left hand. After getting ready I reached college

At college:

Reaching college , with people guidance I found way to my classroom.

I saw how Rupali tried to hang with Arjun and how he got angry on her for calling him "Arju".

I thought "Thank God aara, you called him "Arjun" in morning, It's a great escape for you as he doesn't like anyone calling him "Arju" except athai,mama,anitha".

After reaching classroom , I saw one vacant seat .It was at the last. After getting settled I found everyone murmuring something on seeing me . I thought did I choose a wrong seat?.I found sandhya(noisy one in hostel) signalled me to move to other place.When I was about to get up someone put their bag in desk with force.It's none other than Rupali.

She told, "Hey pattikadu(village girl in Tamil) .How dare you sit in my place? Forget about my place, you dare to sit with Arjun? I know village girls like you very well. You dolled up only to get close to Arjun right ? Don't overthink yourself.Your dream will never come true .Because Arjun loves me only."

Then I moved to other vacant seat next to it. After ensuring the problem is settled.I heared another voice ."What's happening here?"
