A Short Story - Part Fourteen

It did not take long for Akshara to recognise the guy as Raghu Raj, alias, The RR, as fondly called by his friends and fans in college.. Akshara was more of a secret fan to Raghu than a friend.. Even though Raghu was an average student in studies, he was known for his charismatic leadership capability and motivating persona..


One of the most notable achievements that Raghu had accomplished very early in college was the establishment of Anti Ragging Squad and the fight against drugs in campus.. It was these that had made him the hero of the college especially amongst the freshers.. No wonder the RR fan club had more than a thousand followers in orkut and other social networking sites..


Apart from these heroics, Raghu was keenly involved in motivating talks to freshers and other friends especially from the tamil background.. And for Akshara, she used to secretly film Raghu in his talks and actions and watch those clips in her laptop in hostel again and again..


Akshara was in deep love with Raghu and was keenly waiting for the right moment to express her love to her beloved..
