"Shree, don't run so fast baby. You will fall again.You know you are a bit clumsy when it comes to running", Shreeja scowled at her mother for calling her clumsy in front of all her friends.

In fact snooty Radhika muttered clumsy with her mouth. Shreeja or Shree as everybody called her grumbled " Oh,I could hear you very well Radhika, did she think she is the new boss of the playground just because of her new hoola hoop her daddy brought her.She should never underestimate Shree just because of some new gift".

She clapped loudly to bring her four friends attention to herself " Who,wants to eat mango today" whispered Shreeja to her four friend and also Radhika.

Radhika was never a friend for Shreeja since they met first time and found out they shared the same birthday.

It was like telling the most special day of the year that was just yours will never be just yours again.

She has heard from her mama that everyday so many children are born together in different parts of the world but why does Radhika chose our society and my birthday to be born.I mean she could have been born on any day but she chose hers just to challenge her. I specially feel this was her planning but no one believes me.

And to reinstate my importance I took Shreya, Surbhi,Kuhu and Ankita along with sulking Radhikaa to the mango tree at the boys cricket playground.

A huge tree was there at the junction of theirs and the boys ground.

Shree tied her long dress firmly after confirming that her mother was busy talking with other aunties she started climbing the tree. Just for today she forced her cousin brother adarsh to teach her tree climbing.They were both six years old but Adarsh was like a Superman to her. He could do so many things which always fascinated Shree but today she needed all her focus on the job.

As her hands touched the lowest branch to pull out the hanging mango.

Radhika spoke again " oh,you can climb the lowest branch only I thought you would be able to climb the top by the way you bragged about it".

"That's it" angrily thought Shreeja, she knew Radhika will surely make her best thing seem so small.

But now it was the matter of self respect,she gulped and looked the the branches that were far away from her.

Shreeja, overestimating herself and did what was never possible for her because Adarsh only taught her to climb the lowest branch.

After moving a bit above the last branch she braced to move up. But her tiny feet can't maintain the grip.

Shreeja screamed as she felt her body colliding harshly to the ground, her broken sobs echoed everywhere.

In between the sobs she saw Radhika's gloating face if her knees were not hurting that badly she would have jumped on her.

Just then a huge shadow came loomed over her.

Technically it was not huge but for six years old it was huge for her.

" hii,are you alright. Can I pick you up and take you to your mommy".

In between hiccups she looked at him.For Shreeja she saw another boy so close to her for the first time in her life and she could only say " thank you big brother".

His soft laughter rang through her " it's ok little girl, I will be soldier some day and if I can't help you today how can I help others in the future".

As she clung to his broad shoulders, she felt warmth radiating through her,it was like a thick blanket on winter days.

she slowly asked him " big brother my mummy is there can you send me to her? ". He hummed softly " sure ".

As I was being carried slowly I saw my friends following me behind. Their faces were worried probably because their parents would surely scold them for being naughty.

" big brother what is your name " asked Shree shyly " oh I am Krishna" was his short reply as he was focussed on carrying her to her mother".

Shreeja smiled showing her broken teeth to him " big brother then we are perfect together,you know why because my name is Shree and together we will be called Shree Krishna".

Before Krishna could speak another snooty voice sounded behind them " then,we are the best fit, because together we will be Radhika Krishna and your name is Shreeja not Shree".

Shree could feel her face getting red in anger she wanted to scold Radhika but they have reached to her mother by then..

A/N : Shree means Mister and Lord Krishna a famous hindu deity is called Shree Krishna with respect and love,while Radhika is the goddess that is worshipped together with him in the temples. They are the perfect couple in Sanatan dharm.
