Suddenly he felt an electric sting on his right thigh. Her fingers pinching him there.
She poked him hard to bring him back to the reality.
Startled he looked at her just infront of him,her hands on her hips.
He understood from her looks and grumbles "I dont think we should".
"Its my 9th birth day, on your birth day you will tell what we should do"
She told this and turned back with a toss of her long curly hair and pulled him by the hand.
Again mortified the boy helplessly followed her to the school boundary.
They climbed it and jumped out of the limits and raced to the mango orchard near the school.
They reached the nearest tree, both panting and gasping for air.
She started to climb the tree. "Get down, You will hurt yourself" He whispered loudly,still gasping for air.
"Dont be stupid", she yells with a laughter and throws him a mango. "You know that I am brave than you and much stronger".
He grins sheepishly, biting into that mango, the juice running down his fingers to his clothes.
As she sits on a branch not very high up from the ground, the golden bright sun shines down on her.
He looks up from his mango to see her slim long legs dangling from the branch, her large brown eyes sparkling in the sunlight, with laughter.
Then there he suddenly felt a lump in his throat. He swallows. And then coughs.
"Are you all right?"
"I'm fine", he says, frowning up at her and he ran away straight to his home.
