did she vanish. May be I should say then she will go away.
Early morning I found them working in the barn. I said Mrs. Mehta that I had a strange dream yesterday in which I saw Sapna and told her everything that she wanted to tell. Mrs. Mehta’s eyes glistened with tears and Mr. Mehta looked gloomily. I ran to my room and found it empty. I sighed; thinking that at least I freed her.
There were many questions that disturbed my mind like how did Aryan know about the woman’s dead body and why did he support me and back me up as if he knew exactly what I was going to tell. I must ask him, I thought.
Neha greeted me as I got down from my noisy truck, she introduced her friend Lina, and she is kind of funny and childish. She is more into finding a prince charming rather than studying. She has the db (database) of every good looking guy in the college which is why Neha called her DB.
“Where is your brother, Aryan?” I asked as soon as DB left. Another important thing about DB is never speak about a boy in front of her, she will go ramming about the boy’s details.
“He must be somewhere in the ground. He said he’ll come around to our class at lunch. ““He also mentioned that he has something important to talk.” “ “As if he would say to me…” we walked to our lockers to get our morning hour books.
Professor.Avanthi has surprised us with a slip test, All went berserk but she didn’t change her decision when she started scribbling the questions on the board, most of the boys and girls started thumping the benches, protesting about the exam.
“It’s just a test to know how much you have learned in your previous classes.” She said.
“But madam, it’s just second day of our college…” Neha protested keeping her head down.
“Whoever wants extra marks in internals can write the exam.” This had them all, unwillingly; everyone tore papers from the books and started writing.
The problems madam gave were really easy so I started solving them when Neha poked and gestured to show her the answers. I moved aside slightly and started scribbling. After a while, I saw her carving her name on the bench. “Why did you stop writing?” I mumbled.
“If I solve every problem, she will get dubious.” She whispered. I smiled at her. I finished solving the sums in half an hour and sat looking at everyone in the class. There about 30 boys and 15 girls including us. Each one was immersed in either looking out of the class or playing with pen and paper.
“Hey,look at DB.” Neha pointed distracting me. She was staring at one of the cute boys in the class, we laughed at her.
“Megha… have you finished your exam?” Professor shouted at us. “Yes… madam.” I stammered. She snatched away both our papers and asked us to get out.
Neha was playing in the corridor and I sat reading a science book when Poo came. “Poor… Megha. Thrown out of the class…” she smirked. “Do you have a problem?” Neha butted in.
“Don’t mind her words…” Neha said and she stared at my face as tears began to roll in my eyes, I made an attempt to stop them when Lina was thrown out.
“Hey, DB. What happened?” Neha asked. “She caught me staring at Rahul…” she said sitting beside me gloomily.
We burst out into laughter.The next 10miutes passed by as Db complained about the injustice done to her. We laughed merrily as she ranted about Rahul’s cuteness.
I was careful in the next hour as to not to make any noise, Neha understood and kept her mouth shut. As soon as our professor left, she stood up. “I didn’t know that keeping quiet is this difficult. I can’t keep my mouth shut for another hour. I’m leaving… you enjoy the class.” She said and started walking out of the class when our “C” language professor; Mr. Bhatta walked in.
“Where are you going? Stay in the class.” He ordered. I smiled as she walked back to our desk.
“Class, here is an announcement for you… within three months of time we are having a project expo conducted here and students of first year are allowed to take part in it. I’ll be your guide and those who wanted to participate in it; I need their project title and team members within 2 weeks time.” He said.
I was excited about it. “Hey…will you be my partner?” I asked Neha. She thought for a few seconds and then replied, “I’ll be your partner but promise me that you’ll never ask me to do anything regarding it.” I nodded.
Lina, Neha and me sat together in the class during the lunch hour. Lina was gloomy; it was not like her to sit idle. “What happened?” I asked. “I thought I could pair up with Rahul and that way we could spend time together but no… he is paired with that bitchy; Ria.” “I’m sure that there lot more interesting boys in the class.” Neha said. I asked everyone but everyone got paired up, she said sighing. “You can be in our team. I’m sure sir would have no problem in accepting a team of 3 members.” I said.
“Really, thank you…”she said excited. “Wow! You are so generous…” Neha smirked. “Hi, girls…” Aryan came in. I totally forgot about him. With him, I remember how abnormal my life is.
“Can I have a moment with you?” Aryan gestured to me. “Hey, what secrets do you two have that you can’t share with us, huh?” Neha bullied. “She won’t come anywhere. If you have to talk, talk in front of us.”
He sighed and sat next to us. I know that he wouldn’t mention about it in front of them. “What’s up, girls?” he cheered us.
“You know what… that stupid Rahul…” Lina started ranting about the boys. Aryan listened to her patiently. “Hey, Lina. I will tell you about your prince charming.” He said. “Really? How?”
He took her hands and studied the lines on her palm and said that she will soon meet her prince charming and they will live happily ever after. She was excited to hear about it.
“Megha… show me your hands…” He said after a while. He took my hands and gasped when he saw the star mark on my palm. I knew at that time what was this all about; he wanted to check the messenger mark.
“What do you see?” Neha asked. “She will have a successful career in any field that she chooses.” “I never knew that you can read lines on palm… Tell me about mine…” she said extending her hands.
He gasped a few times and turned her hand up and down. “What….?” She cried. “You’ll be married to an old guy…” “Ha-ha…very funny. You don’t know anything.” She stomped away from the room slapping him on his head. Lina went after her.
“What you said are those true?” I asked tentatively. He shrugged his shoulders smiling. “You wanted to see the mark for yourself, Am I right?” I mumbled. He nodded. “So… Are you a messenger too?” He opened his palms to reveal the sign… I touched it tentatively as if it would bite me.
“Are there more like us?” I asked. “You are the only other messenger that I saw in flesh and blood.” He said. I nodded.
I was about to tell him about Sapna and seek his advice but my peers started coming in. They saw me and Aryan together and were apparently shocked.
“If they leave you early today… wait for me. Don’t go on alone helping the ghosts…”He whispered in my ears coming closer. His closeness ran tickles in my body, his scent lingered even after he left.
“What did my stupid freaky brother tell you?” Neha asked sitting beside me. “Nothing…he just sat there until others came in…” I said.
They left us early since the seniors wanted to plan for the fresher party. I started walking back home, If that was the reaction when people saw me talking to Aryan… they would go mad if they saw me going with him so I thought it’s better to walk home.
“Hey…” I saw Aryan stopping his car next to me. “I told you to wait for me, don’t you want to share your adventures with me?” he asked opening the car door. “Get in…”
“Didn’t you see how they were reacting when they saw us together in the class…?” “So…?” “I thought…” I stammered.
He laughed out loud. “Don’t you care about what others think…” he said. I sat silent for a few seconds. “I have a ghost in my house, her name is Sapna. I want your help in reliving her spirit.” “In most of the cases I have seen they wanted to deliver us messages to their beloved ones.” He said.
“I already tried that and I will know if I succeeded or not if I go home.” “Do you still have doubts about it…?” I nodded, “I don’t know something tells me that it isn’t it.” I said. “Anyways, do you know why she is haunting your home?” He asked eyes on the road. “Because it is her house…” I replied.
“You mean to say she is your sister…” he frowned. “No, I have no siblings except for the brothers and sisters that I have back in the orphanage…” I replied.
“I am an orphan…” I said in a low voice. “I’m sorry…” he said looking at me. “Don’t be… I never knew about my parents so I don’t miss them. All my life I have been in the orphanage…” I said.
“Mr & Mr’s Mehta are so kind to me, they offered me shelter. I wanted to repay them… will you help me if I didn’t get succeeded today?” I asked.
“Sure…” he said squeezing my hands lightly. I smiled at him.
I did every work as soon as I could and went into my room to wait for her, secretly I prayed that it was all needed to set her spirit free but something said that it wasn’t. I opened the project abstracts book that I borrowed from the library and started skimming through it. Soon, I fell asleep and I woke up startled as chilly breezes hit me hardly. I stared at the window and there she is sitting gloomily.
“I’m sorry that it didn’t work…”I said clutching her frozen hands. “ But don’t worry…I found another person who is messenger, he said he would help me in freeing your spirit.”
She gave a weak smile, “Please don’t give up…”I tried to console but she glided away. I stood there few minutes calling her back but she didn’t respond.
“Wake up… You’ll be late.” Sapna screamed. She ran her frozen hands over my neck and tickled me. I pulled up the bed sheet tightly when she started jumping over my bed happily. Something clicked in my mind. I never saw her so happy, I woke up instantly. “You are happy…” I exclaimed.
“Yes…I am. You see my condition is getting better every day. At first, I had none to talk to and then
