Gurukul - Let's Face The Supernatural

Finally a student

Bandana's POV
Sumedh was still sleeping when I woke up. I got fresh and without making any noise I left for my room.

Sameeksha and Rohit were sleeping. Sameeksha was sleeping on her left, her back touching Rohit's chest and his arm was resting on her waist.

I smiled a bit and got ready for Gurukul.

*******

The lesson was about to start, and Sameeksha was nowhere to be seen. The teacher came in and the lesson started.

"Students, Gurukul ki taraf se aap sab ek trip pe jaa rahe ho" He said. I widened my eyes. I just came back and we are going on a trip.

"Khopoli ke Durshet Jungle me ho rhi hai trip. Waha rahenge aap ek week ke lie. Aapke paas aaj aur kal ka din hai tayaari ke lie. Waha ki flora aur fauna pe research krni hai aapko" He said.

Students started chatting with each other after that. I really didn't want to go.

Sumedh'a POV
"That's nice!" I said as Bandana told me about the trip. "Ghuhiya nice! Mujhe nhi jaana!! Ek to subhah se Sameeksha se baat nhi hui, upar se yeh" She said gritting her teeth.

"Jaane me kya problem hai?" I asked. "Pehle Sameeksha ke saath rehti thi, ab? Ab kisse baat karungi me?" She asked. I hummed.

Suddenly I heard a noise. I turned to see the back door opening. I couldn't believe it. It was my Uncle! I looked at Bandana.

"Uncle!!! Chup jao!!!!" I said. "Arey kaha jau!?" She asked worried. It was too late.

"Sumedh!!" He called me. I bit my lower lip and turned slowly. "Kon hai yeh ladki? Yaha kya kar rhi hai?" He asked angrily.

"U...Uncle yeh...m-meri dost hai" I managed to say. "Pagal ho gey ho tum! Ese kese ek dost to yaha bula sakte ho!" He yelled. I startled. Bandana held my hand.

"Sumedh beta tum yaha iss lie ho kyunki yehi safe yeh tumhare lie! Abhi takk tumhare parents ke murderers pakde nhi gey!" He said calmly.

"Pakde nhi ya pakdwae nhi?" Bandana asked. "Kya matlab hai tumhara?" Uncle asked. "Itne saal ho gey aur abhi takk kucch pta nhi chala? Esa kese ho sakta hai? Aur Sumedh ko security police bhi de sakti hai" She said.

"Bandana" I whispered and asked her to keep quiet. "Tumhara matlab hai hamne try nhi kia?" Uncle asked. "Dekhie woh sab mujhe nhi pta, bas Sumedh ko yaha rakhna galat hai" She said.

"Ab tum mujhe btaoghi kya sahi hai kya galat?" He asked raising his voice. She nodded. "Sumedh ko ek normal life jeene ka poora haqq hai. Agar itni hi fikar hai unki to police se security dilwaiye, yaha rakhne ka kya matlab hai? Esa lag raha jese aap inka bhala chahte hi nhi" Bandana said.

I looked at her. She lowered her lashes. "Kesi dost hai tumhari Sumedh?" He asked. I looked down. "Sorry" I said. "Sumedh jab takk aap nhi kahenge aapko ek normal life nhi milegi!" Bandana said turning to me. I kept quiet.

"Agar aapko itni hi fikar hai Sumedh ki, itna hi pyaar hai unse to Sumedh ka admission karvaiye Gurukul me! Normal life dijie unhe!" Bandana said raising her voice.

I looked at Uncle. "Theek hai! Agar mera pyaar ese hi dikhai dega tum dono ko, to yehi sahi" He said. I widened my eyes.

"Sumedh tumhara admission ho jaega shaam takk. Samaan bandh lo apna, naya room dia jaega tumhe, trip pe bhi jaoghe tum. Aur haan, security di jaeghi tumhe" He said.

I nodded. He left.

I turned towards Bandana. "Look I'm sorry, but..." She said, but before she could complete her sentence I hugged her tightly.
