The trio's fixation on Salt continued to grow, and Tatya's infatuation deepened with each passing day. He longed to see her, to talk to her, but his shyness held him back.

One fateful morning, the school's hallways were devoid of Salt's radiant presence. Tatya's heart sank as he realized she was absent. It was an unusually gloomy day for him, and he couldn't focus on anything except for her absence.

After school, he couldn't contain his restlessness. His obsession had escalated to such a point that he needed to see her at any cost. The hours ticked by, turning into evening, and Tatya's patience wore thin. He called Russel and Dipak, his voice trembling with urgency.

"Guys, Salt hasn't come to school today," he confessed, anxiety lacing his words. "I can't bear this anymore. I need to see her tonight."

Russel and Dipak, fully aware of the extent of Tatya's feelings, hesitated. "Tatya, maybe she's just sick or something. We can't go to her house uninvited," Russel advised cautiously.

But Tatya was beyond reasoning. His obsession had turned into an all-consuming fire. "I don't care, Russel. I can't live like this anymore. We're going to her house tonight."

Reluctantly, Russel and Dipak agreed to accompany him. They knew that Tatya's desperation had reached a breaking point, and they didn't want to leave their friend alone in his turmoil.

As night descended on Buldana, the trio arrived at Dhad Naka, the region where Salt's house was situated. They parked their scooters a short distance away and, feeling the weight of their actions, started barefoot towards her house.

The moonlight cast eerie shadows, and a sense of foreboding loomed over them. Unbeknownst to the trio, they were about to cross paths with an entity far more sinister than their teenage obsessions.
