PART- 7 A
Entering inside she carefully bolted the door
not wanting anyone to find out that the door has been opened. Every movement in
the abandoned room sent a vortex of dust in the already stagnant air. Sighing!
She turn to look towards Arnav, only to find him already busy in looking
around.
“What happened Arnav? What’re you looking
around?”
“Huh! Oh! Nothing Khushi. Was just trying to
locate the so called ghost,” he said winking at her making her smile a bit.
“Let’s not ponder over useless things Arnav.
We should start doing for what we’ve come here,” Khushi said feeling uneasy
from inside. Though it was totally her call to come here in this room but after
entering inside she has this nagging feeling which is just making her feel edgy
from inside.
Leaving her meandering musings aside she
moved forward when she feel a sudden push on her back making her stumble
forward.
Realising that she was going to fall, she
closed her eyes waiting for the pain of the hard fall to engulf her, but when
instead of the pain or the cold floor she felt two warm hands over her waist,
protecting her from hitting the floor she opened her eyes, only for them to
collide with a pair of worried caramel orbs.
“You okay?” Arnav asked worriedly after
straightening her.
“Hmm!” she only hummed nodding her head in
affirmation and then look towards the door on her backside as if trying to
figure-out what had just happen, but was soon jerk out of her revere when Arnav
placed his hand on her shoulder.
Getting angry at the carelessness his wife
had just shown him he was going to scold her when he saw her looking towards
the door. What the hell? He thought, here he is worried for her and there she
is busy in staring that old dusted door.
So to make her realise his presence he placed
his hand on her shoulder and asked worriedly but in an angry tone “What was
that Khushi? Can’t you even walk without a fall? Do you realised that you
would’ve hurt yourself if I hadn’t hold you?”
“Ar! Arnav! Do you think I’ll do it
intentionally?” she asked frowning.
“I know baby that you’ll not. But then at
least you should be careful dear.”
“I was,” she said not liking the way he was
scolding her that too for no fault of hers.
While her reply filled with attitude irked
Arnav and he taunts.
“Oh really? Well! That I just saw.”
“Arnav please! You’re not understanding.”
“What I’m not understanding?” he asked
raising his brow.
“Arnav! I don’t know but I was really
careful. And…. And don’t know how you’ll take it but…. Arnav I felt as if…. As
if someone just pushed me.”
“What? Are you kidding me? He asked amusedly
and then taking a pregnant pause he said “Oh! I get it. You’re saying it all so
that I’ll not scold you for your recklessness.”
Well! She really wanted to smack him for
taking her lightly, but then she pondered on her own words. What the heck she
just said? How can she feel something so doltish? Arnav is right. I’m kidding
but not with him, rather with herself. First that voice and now this push. It
must be that Arnav who was trying to prevent me from falling and I thought
someone pushed me. Yea! That’s the truth. And all these feelings and all….
These are just due to hearing about all those non-real tales, maybe all these
are taking a toll on her mind making her believe or try to believe in things
which doesn’t exists in this world.
Sighing! She took a deep breath and said “Well!
You got me Arnav.”
“Oh! I always will baby,” he said winking
trying to snake his arm around her waist when he snapped off his hand and said
“Arnav! Hubby dear, we’re definitely not going to romance in this room. What if
there is really a ghost? Then I believe you would never want him to see me like
thaaatttt,” she emphasised on her last word winking at him making it evident to
her husband what she meant by it.
While he straightened himself taking his
hands off her waist making her to fall in the pool of laughter.
“Gosh! Arnav you’re so cute,” she said
pulling his cheeks while he pouted at her.
“Okay! Jokes apart. Now we should start our
search to find something before anyone woke up,” Khushi said at which Arnav too
nodded and then they began to search the whole room.
Dusty board, dusty walls, dusty drapes. The
dust lay over the surface of each and everything like winter’s first snow and
as soon as Khushi patted the surface to remove it, it swirled in the air and
made its way into her lungs making her cough.
“Careful Khushi!” Arnav said rubbing her
back.
“Yea!” she responded and then asked him to
look in other side so that the work can be finished soon.
After fifteen minutes of futile search both
of them sighed as they didn’t find even a single thing which can lead them to
any conclusion or so.
“Khushi! I think coming here was of no use.
There is nothing here which can lead us to anything.”
“Yeah Arnav! I too think the same. We gave up
our beautiful sleep in the hope to find something but here we’re standing with
no result. There is nothing in this room except the cupboard,” she said
pointing towards the brown- painted, rusted cupboard with a long mirror fixed on
its right door which was painted with brown and red spots at many places.
“But what’s the use of it when we can’t even
open its door.” Arnav said in disappointment of not getting anything to find
out about his parents.
“Hmm! So I think we should go back to our
room,” Khushi said at which he nodded when all of a sudden Khushi heard the
same voice.
The time has come for my fear to gain its place!
The time has come for blood-shed to retain its pace!
The time has come to set me free!
The time has come to make all scream!
The time has come to avenge the wrong!
The time has come to lay the thorns!
Bloodshed! Bloodshed! Bloodshed is all what I want….
Hahaha… Hahaha… Hahaha… Hahaha….
“Arn…. Arnav…. Did
you heard something?”
“What Khushi? Please no more pranks. I’m
really not in a mood for it,” he said but was soon interrupted by the
shattering sound while Khushi jumps back in fear.
Looking towards the place from where the
sound come, they saw a dusty scenery lying on the ground with scattered pieces
of broken glass lying all around it.
Before even Arnav can comprehend what just
happened he heard something heavy falling on the ground making him look back
only to realise that his wife- his Khushi has fainted.
