It was technically not really 7th day of my meeting with Leelavati but, it was the seventh day of my life when I had complex and ambivalent feelings for Leela (Yeah, with time I also picked up this name for Leelavati).
It was my 16th birthday. We have been up and close all these years as schoolmates, classmates, neighbors and lastly, and definitely more importantly as friends. She was there for me in all those conditions where I had least expected her to be as a child.
She was my 'shopping stuff final opinion-giver', 'last minute exam-stress-buster', 'gossip-sharer', 'note-book-lender-on-absent-days', 'those-days-buddy' and what not. In fact she was the one who noticed the change in my body language and way of talking whenever Siddharth was around. She was the one who started teasing me on this little secret of mine though in private but, yes she was the one.
When eventually, Siddharth also noticed this thing, she was the one to initiate the talks. And, now on my 16th birthday, I am again dealing with such a dilemma. No doubt Leelavati was always an enigma!
Shradhha saw her with him. Twice in past week. While she liked him and I know they were friends but, never like this. Neither did she mention nor did he that they met in private for such a long duration or any sort of talks. As if it never occurred.
I am wondering should I invite her to my birthday treat tonight? Was all that for just this day? What a wretched day it is!
Oh dear God! Why am I suddenly feeling so sick.
