"Haan... haan okay! okay! Naina to sunn kar khush ho jayegi.",
smiles Rajveer over the call.
"Haan batata hoon usse main abhi.",
he says.
Still smiling, Rajveer turns to look towards Naina. His smile fades and gradually exits his face as soon as he discovers her staring up towards the first floor of their home.
Rajveer follows his gaze to notice what is she staring at but finds nothing significant there to stare at.
"Hmmm!",
he replies, suddenly disinterested in continuing the conversation he is having with Alekh.
"Theek hai Alekh, tum sub jaldi aa jao. Bohot....",
taking a deep breath, clearing his mind, Rajveer continues,
"Bohot sari baatein karni hain.",
he smiles, but the smile doesn't reach his eyes!
"Apun ko bhi Sir....",
Alekh turns to look towards Neelu, who is deep in her thoughts.
"...bohot kuch batana hai aapko.",
completes Alekh, wryly.
Alekh tears his gaze away from Neelu and focuses back on his conversation with Rajveer.
Taking a deep breath, in a fresh tone, Alekh says,
"Baad mein baat karta hai apun aapse Sir, milkar."
"Alright Alekh. Bye.",
smiles Rajveer.
"Bye Sir.",
smiles Alekh.

"Oye Sameera tu ab tak taiyar nahi hui? Jana nahi hai Phoolan aur Rajveer Sir se milne?",
asks Huda, disappointed.
"Haan Huda jana hai.",
replies Sameer, engrossed in searching something in the cupboard and side table's drawers.
"Huda tumne... tumne meri dawayi dekhin hain kya?",
asks Sameera, exasperated.
"Konsi dawayi?",
asks Huda, knitting his brows, wearing his watch.
"Anxiety ki!",
replies Sameera, still searching here and there.
That comes as a surprise for Huda.
Holding her by her upper arm Huda forces Sameera to look towards himself and asks her,
"Maine kaha tha na tu wo dawayi ab nahi legi? Kya zaroorat hai tujhe unn dawaiyon ki?"
Cupping her face with his hands, Huda talks to her calmly,
"Tu mujh par bharosa kar Sameera, tu bina unn dawaiyon ke reh sakti hai. Jaise hi tujhe bechaini ho, tu apna dhyan kahin aur le ja. Bus itna sa kaam hai."
"Itna sa kaam?",
asks Sameera in disgust.
"Tumhe lagta hai main wo sub kuch jaan bujhkar sochti hoon?; Ke mere liye mind divert karna bada asaan hai?",
shouts Sameera.
Huda shakes his head, staring Sameera helplessly, wondering why is she not understanding him.
"Din chhoro, main raat ko bhi chain se so nahi paati, tumhe lagta hai dhyan bhatkana mere bus mein hai?",
asks Sameera, spitting her anger of helplessness through her each word.
"Har dum ek khauf mujhe ghere rehta hai, na jaane kab meri nazron ke saamne koi aisa aa jaye jo insaan nahi kuch aur ho.... aatma...!",
she utters 'aatma' in a hushed and trembling voice.
Huda widens his eye. Sameera and Huda stare each other in horror.
"Agar main ye dawayi na khaun, to ye ghar mujhe kaatne ko daudta hai!",
cries Sameera.
"Teen mahine ho gaye hain humein wapas aaye hue!"
Sameera turns around and begins walking away from Huda.
"Socha tha... socha tha waqt ke saath-saath last time trip mein humare saath jo kuch bhi hua main bhool jaungi. Uss hadse se ubhar jaungi."
Shaking her head she continues,
"Magar nahi... nahi hua aisa!"
"To isiliye to tujhe wahan le jaa raha hoon. Wahan subse milkar tujhe acha lagega.",
assures Huda, lovingly.
Sameera looks towards Huda, all serious and for the umpteenth time tells him,
"Huda, trip se wapas iss ghar mein sirf hum dono nahi aaye hain. Koi aur bhi hai humare saath!"
Shivers run down Huda's spine hearing her. His brows relax out of shock.
"Koi aur?!",
asks Huda, shocked.
Sameera nods her head in affirmative.
"Kaisi behki-behki baatein kar rahi hai tu Sameera. Aur kon aaya hai humare saath?",
asks Huda.
Shaking her head, Sameera says,
"Main nahi janti!"
She looks here and there whilst saying,
"Main... main usse dekh nahi sakti."
"Dekh nahi sakti?",
enquires Huda.
Sameera looks towards Huda, helplessly.
"Phir tujhe kaise pata ke yahan humare alawa koi aur bhi hai?",
asks Huda, perplexed.
"Dekh nahi sakti magar mehsoos kar sakti hoon usse main Huda!",
cries and shouts Sameera.
Huda stares her dumbstruck.
"Huda jab tum office chale jaate ho... darwaza band karte hi meri nazar humesha ghadi par parhti hai, time ke hisab se main purey din ki planning karti hoon. Magar jabse hum wahan se laute hain...",
she pauses briefly to breath.
Huda waits impatiently for her to continue.
"Tumhare kadam jaise hi ghar se bahar parhte hain; jaise hi tumhare jaane ke baad main darwaza band karke ghadi ki aur dekhti hoon to... to ghadi ke kaante khud ba khud ulte ghoomne lagte hain!",
reveals Sameera, tears of helplessness and fear roll down her cheeks.
Huda gets shocked hearing her.
"Ye... ye tu kya keh rahi hai Sameera?!",
his eyes opened wide.
"Main bilkul such keh rahi hoon Huda!",
says Sameera, crying, her voice raised out of desperation of making him to accept the fact.
"Maine na jaane kitni baar theek karne ki koshish ki magar nayi battery lagane ke baad kuch der ghadi theek chalti uske baad phir ulti chalne lagti.",
she says.
"Please meri baat ka vishwas karo! Yahan kuch normal nahi hai! Aur main nahi jaanti main isse phirse normal kaise karun.",
cries Sameera, her voice turning low gradually.
She covers her face with both of her hands and cry harder.
Huda's heart clenches witnessing Sameera's state of helplessness and desperation. He embraces her into a hug, and wonders about the matter.
Looking towards Huda again,
"Mujhe bohot darr lag raha hai Huda. Bohot darr lag raha hai.",
she cries further.
"Tu chinta mat kar Sameera, sub theek ho jayega. Sub theek ho jayega!",
says Huda, holding her in his embrace and slowly looks towards the clock which at the moment is working absolutely fine.

"Pooja ji aapne Naina ji se baat ki?",
asks Ali, skeptically.
Pooja's heart skips a beat hearing Ali. She immediately shoots a glance towards him. Her face expression gives away her nervousness.
"Nahi Ali! Meri himmat hi nahi hui.",
she says, with her eyes wide opened.
"Dekhiye please aap unse baat kijiye. Hum to samjh nahi pa rahe aap kya keh rahi hain magar... magar shayad wo aapki kuch madad kar paayein?",
says a concerned Ali, knitting his brows lightly.
Pooja stares Ali and nods her head in quick succession in nervousness.
Resting his hand on her entwined fingers, Ali, sitting next to her, consoles her calmly,
"Hum jante hain Pooja ji ke humne aapse iss baat par pehle larhayi ki aur ab hum khud hi aapse Nainaji se baat karne ko keh rahe hain."
Pooja's eyes well up hearing him, her face turned to her left, her eyes filled with remorse, staring Ali throughout.
"Magar hum kya karein? Humne koshish ki aap jo keh rahi hain uss baat ko samjhne ki. Aapke sapno mein kisi boodhi aurat ka aakar madad mangna, phir agle din ussi aurat ko aapka humare ghar ki chhat (terrace) par dekhna...",
Ali shakes his head.
Pooja's breath turns shallow as she remembers the lady she sees in her dream.
Ali looks towards her and continues,
"Humein lagta hai ye aapka bus veham hai aur kuch nahi. Shayad aapka sapna aap par itna haawi ho gaya hai ke aap khuli aankhon se bhi uss sapne ko dekh pa rahi hain. Bus."
Pooja nods her head in understanding.
Ali takes a deep breath, glad that she understood.
With her eyes down casted, her fingers interwoven, Pooja calmly asks him,
"Chal ye mera veham hai. Magar kya ye tab bhi mera veham tha jab hum sub ghoomne gaye thein aur wahan maine issi aurat ko dekha tha?"
Ali stares her shocked.
"Ye... yein aap kya keh rahi hain Pooja ji?",
asks Ali, unable to fathom the truth.
"Haan Ali!",
says a frustrated Pooja.
"Wohin maine iss aurat ko pehli baar dekha tha. Dekhte hi mujhe ye kuch ajeeb si lagi.",
says Pooja, drowning into the pool of her emotions generated by the lady.
"Ajeeb?",
asks Ali, confused.
Pooja nods her head.
"Iske chehre par na koi khushi; na ghum. Ek tuk mujhe dekhi ja rahi thi.",
remembers Pooja, and shivers as she remembers the eerie feeling she had that day.
Ali's pace of heartbeat increases.
"Ek mann kar raha tha ke jaakar usse baat karun! Poochun usse ke uski kya pareshani hai!",
says Pooja, engrossed in her thought process.
Ali gets anxious to know whether Pooja talked to her or not.
"Magar dusre hi pal maano mera mann mujhe rok raha ho uske paas jaane se. Jaise ki usse pata ho ke uske paas jaane mein khatra hai.",
says Pooja.
Ali nods his head in affirmative in quick succession.
"Phir aap gayin?",
asks Ali, anxiously.
Pooja looks towards him and shakes her head in negative.
Ali takes a sigh of relief.
"Magar shayad mujhe jaana chahiye tha!",
Pooja surprises Ali by her words.
Ali widens his eyes in shock.
"Aap pagal ho gayin hain kya Poojaji?",
he asks in utter disbelief.
"Aapne bilkul sahi kiya. Aapki jaan ko khatra tha. Aise ajeeb logon se durr rehne mein hi samjhdaari hai.",
Ali shakes his head.
"Agar chali jaati to shayad aaj wo mujhe tang nahi karti.",
says Pooja, feeling guilty.
Ali stares her, unable to understand how to make her understand.
"To shayad wo mera peecha karte-karte mere ghar tak nahi pohnchti.",
Pooja now begins to shout out of helplessness.
"Wo mera peecha nahi chhoregi Ali. Wo mera peecha nahi chhoregi.",
Pooja begins to howl.
Ali shakes his head in quick succession and embrasses her into a hug, pacifying her.
"Tujhe lagta hai Naina meri ye baat samjhegi?",
asks Pooja, crying still.
"Samjhengi. Zaroor samjhengi.",
says a tensed Ali, rotating his hand on Pooja's head, wondering.

Yudi asks Dr. Shalini in a voice higher than normal,
"Aap taiyar hain Shalini?"
"Haan Yudi bus do (2) minute.",
comes Dr. Shalini's voice from behind the closed door of the bedroom.
Yudi, standing at the main hall of their home, glances at his watch to know the time.
"I hope Neelu aur Alekh nikal gaye hon ab tak. Unhe pohnchne mein waqt lag sakta hai.",
Yudi peeps out of the window, pushing the curtain slightly aside with his right index and middle fingers.
"Baarish bhi ho sakti hai phir traffic issue.",
Yudi shakes his head.
"Main taiyar hoon. Chalo jaldi chalte hain.",
says Dr. Shalini in a desperation.
A smile of love and admiration stretches on Yudi's face after his eyes refrain to tear their gaze away from her.
Dr. Shalini looks towards him, her eyes creased. Her heart skips a beat upon discovering Yudi staring her, mesmerized.
"Yudi?!"
Yudi gets out of his reverie.
"Kya hua?",
asks Dr. Shalini.
Smiling further, he gives her a compliment,
"You look beautiful!"
Dr. Shalini blushes profusely and immediately cascades her eyes self consciously.
Slowly she looks towards him and says,
"Thank you Yudi."
Both of them smile at each other.
"Oh! Main to poochna hi bhool gayi. Kal raat ko store room ka darwaza tumne khola tha?",
asks Dr. Shalini.
"Store room ka?",
Yudi knits his brows, perplexed.
"Nahi to!",
he replies.
Blood drains out of Dr. Shalini's face.
"To phi...r... ki...sne... khola?",
she eyes, her eyes widened out of shock.
Yudi realises where is she going again with all this. Relaxing his brows, out of irritation, he says,
"Aapne khola hoga pehle. Aap bhool gayin hongi."
"Nahi Yudi maine nahi khola mujhe ache se yaad hai!",
Dr. Shalini's voice chokes.
Yudi holds his waist from both the sides out of frustration.
"Alright I am not doing this right now. I am sure hum mein se hi koi bhool gaya hoga band karna.",
says Yudi, trying to bring this discussion to an end.
"Tum ab bhi meri baat ko ignore karoge Yudi?",
asks Dr. Shalini, feeling the lump in her throat.
Yudi stares her.
"Shalini look, main manta hoon trip mein humne kuch abnormal cheezein mehsoos ki hain...",
he takes another deep breath, before continuing,
"But it all ended with that trip! So aap jo kuch bhi soch raheen hain, wo sub aapka vehm hai aur kuch nahi."
"Oh! So you mean main pagal ho gayi hoon?",
asks a hurt Dr. Shalini.
Yudi tilts his head to the right, staring Dr. Shalini throughout. How to make her understand?!
"Mera ye matlab nahi tha.",
says Yudi.
"To kya matlab tha tumhara Yudi?",
asks Dr. Shalini and continues,
"Please explain!",
she crosses her arms, resting against her abdominal.
Yudi stares her further, perplexed.
"Look, Dr. Shalini I think you need a break. Come chalte hain jaldi. Wapas laut kar baat karte hain.",
proposes Yudi, extending his hand towards her.
"That's what you always do Yudi! Tum situations se bhaagte ho. Tumhe such ko accept karne se darr lagta hai. Tum ye manna nahi chahte ke humare ghar mein koi hai.",
shouts an angry Dr. Shalini.
"That our house is haunted!",
she shouts further.
"OUR HOUSE....",
shouts an equally angry Yudi.
"...is not haunted Shalini!",
completes Yudi, clenching his teeth, minding his voice, pointing his right index finger towards Dr. Shalini.
"Maine ye ghar apni mehnat ki kamayi se banaya hai Shalini. Bohot pyar se. Yahan humare alawa koi nahi rehta. Jo kuch bhi hai wo bus apka veham hai. And I am fed up of having the same discussion over and over jab se hum uss trip se aaye hain!",
scolds Yudi.
Dr. Shalini's heart throbs inside her chest.
"Bhagwan ke liye aaj mujhe khush rehne dijiye.",
Yudi folds his hands in front of Dr. Shalini loudly, in anger. Glaring her one last time he turns to leave. He stops abruptly and again turns to look at her,
"By the way Dr. Shalini..."
Shalini once again looks towards him, helplessly.
"Aap mein aur mujh mein kon zyada darpok hai ye to humara pura group janta hai.",
he says, laughing sarcastically.
Dr. Shalini knits her brows wondering where is he going with this!
"Agar humare ghar mein such mein koi ya kuch hai, then strangely usne mujhe tang na karke aapko tang karne ka socha.",
smiles Yudi, sarcastically.
"Tumhara matlab kya hai Yudi?",
asks Dr. Shalini.
"Matlab ye hai Dr. Shalini ke it's all in your head! Warna main bhi wo sub mehsoos kar paata jo aap kar raheen hain, shayad aapse zyada karta!"
Shalini's heart skips a beat hearing him.
"And this is all because hum jabse wapas aaye hain mere laakh samjhane ke baad bhi aapne uss incident ke baare mein sochna nahi chorha.",
accuses Yudi.
"For heaven's sake Dr. Shalini, nikliye aap uss hadse se bahar.",
shouts Yudi.
Dr. Shalini controls her emotions, staring Yudi, knitting her brows tighter.
Shaking his head he leaves whilst saying,
"Main gadi mein aapka intezaar kar raha hoon."
Dr. Shalini overthinks his each word after he leaves.

All of them reach Rajveer and Naina's place.
Naina opens the door for them.
All of them greet each other; hug each other.
"Bohot acha laga tum sub aaye.",
says Naina, taking her place next to Rajveer on the sofa, in a lemon coloured saree.
"Aana hi tha Phoolan. Bohot dino se mann kar raha tha subse milne ka.",
says Huda, accepting the sweet from the plate that Naina extends in front of him.
"Haan iss bahane mind bhi thoda fresh ho gaya. Warna jabse uss trip se laute hain tabse to...",
Alekh places his right hand on Neelu's thigh, after hearing her words which drains the blood out of his face.
"Neelu!",
Alekh looks towards her and widens his eyes.
Neelu cascades her eyes out of hesitation.
But her words have already caught the attention of all. Suddenly the prior cheerful and positive vibe turn into a gross and serious one. As if her words have vibrated the accurate chord of each of her listeners. As if each one of them secretly was desiring to have a conversation about the same but none had courage enough to commence with the topic.
Naina looks towards Alekh, knitting her brows, disappointed by his act of stopping Neelu.
Turning back to look towards Neelu, Naina asks,
"Kya baat hai Neelu? Kya hua hai wahan se lautne ke baad?"
Rajveer too stays alert.
Neelu looks towards Naina and hesitates to share with her initially but soon she makes up her mind.
"Pata nahi tum sub baat par bharosa karoge ke nahi...",
Neelu stays skeptical.
"What happened sis?",
asks Yudi, straightening up at his place.
He then turns to look towards Dr. Shalini, briefly, as the fact that Dr. Shalini and Neelu both had some negative experiences after returning, rings a bell!
Dr. Shalini too gets anxious to know, may be now Yudi would believe her.
Neelu turns to look towards Yudi, knitting her brows she says,
"Mujhe... mujhe humesha lagta hai maano mere peeche koi khada ho!"
All of them get shocked hearing her.
"Pichle kuch dino mein mere saath jitne haadse hue hain utne to shayad isse pehle kabhi nahi hue.",
she tells them.
"Kaise hadse?",
asks Rajveer, shocked.
"Kitchen mein stove on karke bhool jaati hoon! Kisi aur duniya mein hi ghum ho jaati hoon. Beech sadak mein achanak ruk jaati hoon.",
she adds.
"Ek baar to apun ne isse bachaya, peeche se gaadi itni zor se aa rahi thi. Wo to apun daru khareedne bahar nikla tha tab dekha isse, warna to pata nahi uss din kya ho jata.",
says Alekh, frustrated.
"Neelu, tum to aisi nahi thi!",
says Naina, disappointed and concerned.
"Ye sub main nahi karti Naina.",
Neelu tries to make her understand.
"Mano koi anjani shakti ho jo mujhse aisa karwati ho.",
Neelu raises her voice in helplessness.
None of them question the credibility of her words. Her words skip the heartbeat of each one of them.
All of them stare her silently.
●●●●●
"Neelu ki ye baat aur aap subki khamoshi se mujhe ye samjh aa gaya hai ke sirf Naina aur mere saath hi nahi; aap subke saath bhi kuch ajeeb ghatnayein ghat raheen hain.",
says Rajveer.
They all look towards Rajveer and Naina shocked. Naina cascades her eyes having nothing to add to it.
"Phoolan?!",
exclaims Huda.
Naina looks towards Huda helplessly.
"Raat ke andhere mein maine ghar ke uss corridor par kisi aadmi ko khada dekha!",
reveals Naina, pointing towards the corridor.
All of them widen their eyes respectively, looking towards it.
Silence prevails for a brief moment.
"Mujhe yakeen tha ke wo mera bhram hai. Hum dono ke alawa koi humare ghar ke ander kaise ho sakta hai?",
Naina knits her brows tight, staring Huda.
"Kya usne tujhe kisi tarah se nuksaan pohnchaya?",
asks Alekh, immediately.
"Nahi! Bus chain se jeene nahi deti wo. Wo aatma kya chahti hai; kyun hai yahan mujhe nahi pata.",
says Naina, frustrated.
"Gussa iss baat ka hai ke bus mujhe hi dikhti hai wo. Yein nahi dekh paate.",
says Naina, indicating towards Rajveer.
"To aap log yahan se chaley kyun nahi jaatein?",
asks Yudi.
"Kitni baar kaha hai isse.",
says Rajveer, looking towards Naina.
"Pehle to mujhe yakeen karne mein mushkil ho rahi thi kyunki main khud jo dekh nahi pa raha uss par kaise yakeen karun? Magar phir bhi maine yahi socha ke agar Naina keh rahi hai to kuch to suchchai hogi iss baat mein."
All of them nod their head, respectively.
"Maine kaha ke shift kar lete hain. Yahan se duur chale jaate hain. Magar ye kahin jana bhi nahi chahti.",
says Rajveer, frustrated.
Rajveer then lowers his eyes and says,
"Ma...gar.... ma....gar aaj..."
Naina gets alert, she knits her brows tighter; tilts her head a little towards right and asks,
"K..ya... aaj?"
All others too get impatient to know.
Rajveer looks towards Naina and says,
"Magar aaj maine dekha!"
Naina's cheeks turn dark shade of red. Her heart throbs inside her chest.
"K...kya dekha?",
asks Naina.
"Koi hai yahan humare beech!",
says Rajveer.
Rajveer and Naina stare each other in state of horror. All others stare them equally horrified.
Naina then asks, slowly, measuring her each word,
"To... ma...tla..b... aa...p... aa..pko pata hai ke iss wa...qt aap...ke... saa...mne wo khada hai??!!"
Horror of a great degree runs through the veins of Rajveer and Naina's spectators. They look each other in horror. Their throats turn dry.
Rajveer, never taking his eyes away from Naina, nods his head in affirmative at a slow pace.
Naina's heart almost forgets to beat for a short span after that.
●●●●●
All others slowly begin preparing to leave their seat respectively.
Suddenly Naina says, looking towards all of them,
"Koi kuch nahi kahega tumhe! Trust me!"
All of them freeze at their respective place, hearing her, staring her.
"Agar ab tak kuch nuksaan nahi pohnchaya usne to aage bhi nahi pohnchayega.",
says Naina, though herself half assured.
They stare her dumbstruck!
"Kitna ajeeb hai na?",
says Naina.
"K..kya ajeeb hai?",
asks Pooja, terrified and perplexed.
Naina turns to look towards Pooja and says,
"Jabse hum uss trip se aaye hain tabse hum subke saath kuch na kuch paranormal ho raha hai."
All of them agree with her in silence.
"Maine kaha tha nahi jaate hain. Aap subko hi parhi thi kisi haunted jagah ko experience karne ki!",
Yudi accuses them, raising his voice in anger.
"Yudiye tu please shant ho ja. Humein agar pata hota ke aisa kuch hoga to kya hum jaate?",
says Huda, trying to pacify him.
"Nahi bhi agar pata tha; magar ye to pata tha na ke wo ek HAUNTED jagah hai. HAUNTED!",
shouts Yudi.
"Yudi, please shant ho jao.",
says Dr. Shalini, feeling sad for him.
"Mere saath bhale hi kuch nahi hua, magar Rajveer Sir aur Naina ki tarah, Shalini bhi mehsoos kar pa rahi hain kisi ke presence ko humare ghar mein. Kaise samjhaun unhe? Gussa aata hai to larh leta hoon inse iss baat par ke ye sub inka vehm hai magar fikr hai mujhe inki!",
shouts Yudi.
Dr. Shalini shuts her eyes as her heart clenches hearing his words.
"Magar ajeeb baat hai ke wahan humein darr nahi laga. Wahan kisi aatma ne humein pareshan nahi kiya. Magar humare ghar par aakar humein torture kar rahe hain.",
wonders Neelu.
"Hum jahan gaye the wo ek restricted area hai Neelu.",
Rajveer looks towards Neelu after completing.
"Mana karne ke bawajood humne unke ilake mein jaane ki jurrat ki. To ab wo humare ilake mein, humare ghar mein aakar humein pareshan kar rahe hain.",
he completes.
All of them nod their head respectively in agreement.
"You mean we are paying price of breaking the rules set by them!",
says Yudi, then looks towards Rajveer.
Rajveer nods his head in affirmative.
Neelu clenches the helm of Alekh's jacket in horror.
"Ghar par mujhe humesha ye khauf ghere rehta hai ke koi hai mere aas-paas.",
Sameera begins telling them her experience.
"Ghadi ka baar-baar band ho jaana; band television achanak chalne lagna, ye... ye itefaq to nahi ho sakta na?",
asks Sameera, looking towards them.
All of them get another shock.
"Aur ye... ye sub tab jab main ghar par akeli hoon!",
she adds.
"Abhi kal hi mujhe apni diary jali hui mili!"
Huda stares her in utter shock.
"Tu...ne... tu ne mujhe ye baat to nahi batai?",
he says.
"Kya-kya bataun tumhe Huda?",
asks Sameera, looking towards him.
"Aur kar bhi kya logey tum?",
she asks.
All of them stare Sameera shocked and tensed.
"Kuch to karna parhega. Aise kaise apun sub apni puri zindagi bitayenge?",
asks an angry Alekh.
"Koi kuch nahi kar sakta! Koi kuch nahi kar sakta. We all are trapped!",
she cries, shoving her fingers into her hair.
"We have to pay the price! We have to pay the price!"
All of them stare Sameera, freezed to their spots, respectively. All they can do now is imagine their end, because it is exactly where they are leading to and in an alarming rate!
