Struggle Of Love - Chapter 5 Brother

“Yeah, I am there in a flash,” he yells as soon as he hears his elder brother. The small topic was just too interesting to leave it hanging. He would finish it.

The firmness in Sai’s voice made the other brother smile. He had missed it. Seeing his only younger brother be hesitant at each and every step made his very sad. He slowly peeked into the room to find Sai twirling a pen in his fingers as his eyes were focused on the book in front. Maybe, the small warning just now worked. He went back to the table to wait for his kid brother. Sai would always be the first thing on his mind. It would never change.

After they have their lunch together, Kai went back. It was just him again and decided to spend some time watching TV or just find some other activity to pass the time.

That night it was Hana’s dinner and all the three enjoyed the night away with a board game. Four player game but three would do just fine. Kai won two games as he always would. Next game he lost to Hana and the last to Sai. There was no soul in there that did not know he lost on his want. They knew he could win.

POV: General.

A Sunday was so much needed for May. She was so tired from her exams. And more tired because of anime but she would never agree to that. As she lay in her bed her thoughts drifted to the time when she had the small group of friends whom she would give up everything for. Last night Jessica had called her and they spoke for an hour.

Things were not very beautiful back then but they were contending and happy to a good extent. She missed all of them.

She remembered Sai. He was her best friend. Or probably is still.

During the initial months of their friendship, they were almost always beside each other, helping each other out. Both being the only new students of their class that year, they had grown up have the other’s back. Then, there were James and Jessica. The couple was two years senior to them. She did not know how Sai made friends with them in just one day of joining there. He told her that they were both a part of the school club he had applied for. James had checked him for the club membership. It was the art club. Sai was pretty good at abstract painting.

Slowly, she got herself into their initial group of three. After just a week, Ton has become a part too. A year later, Fern became the last one of their clique. Fern initially was a subordinate to Jessica at tennis. They were the only two sports persons among them. Funny how there was no guy in it. James was a study nerd. In fact, he was famous as one. Ton was more of an extrovert than any of them, even more than herself. He was what a spontaneous leader would be. Though, he never headed anything major, it was obvious he wouldn’t make a good lead from his speeches and debating skills. Sai was not a nerd, he spent more time in talking a leisure walk than spending with books. He was an intelligent. He spent even little time painting but was on par with James who would spend an equally serious amount of time on art works as he would with his subject books.
