Posted: 09 Mar 2017 08:51
NAVYA'S POV
Don't know for how long i was sitting there on the floor numb.... thinking about the incidents occured to me since my arrival here to this college ....... to this hostel ......... to this room.........
What actually is happening with me ?
And ... and why me ??
What i saw today ..... was th.... was that .... a spirit..... no....no.... no.....
No.... Navya ... no..... there is nothing like that ....
No........... you don't believe in them .
There is nothing like evil.spirit in this world .
But ... that girl on the hospital bed ???
Shaking my head i started to stand but because of being on the floor for so long my legs got numb which made it difficult to walk . But i somehow with the support from the nearby wall walked to my bed . 7
Settling myself on the bed i saw my reflection on the mirror infront of me .
Swollen blood red eyes , puffy nose ,tear stained face was what sitting infront of me .
I was watching myself in the mirror when suddenly my phone started ringing
This time !!!!
I took my phone and saw MOM flashing on the screen .
Scared as hell i picked up the phone
"Hello mom.... "
"Navya..... how's my child ? "
"Mom...i am fine here . Is everything ok mom??"
"Yes... yes baby everything is fine here . I ... i... just felt like talking to you so i called . I am sorry baby if i disturbed you. Were you sleeping ?"
"No .. mom you didn't disturbed me . I was doing my assignment . But .. but you are hiding something from me . Are you ok ? What about dad ,Neev bhai and Naksh bhai?? Please mom you are scaring me !!!"
"Actually baby ....i..i...ummmm.... i saw a bad dream about you like ....like you need us very badly . "
'I do mom .... i really do need you all ' i thought and tears started rolling down my cheeks
I got so scared and without giving it an another thought i called you .
Please tell me my child are you ok there ??..."
Wiping my tears away i said
"Yes mom i am all good here . You don't worry please it will affect your health mom "
" ok i won't only if you will visit us in the morning . Weare missing you alot . "
I smiled
"Ok mom.... even i am missing you all . "
"Ok baby .. now sleep ok we ll meet tomm . Love u "
" love u too mom "
Then the line went dead and i placed the phone back . Due to talking and crying my throat felt dry so taking the waterbottle settled on the bed i gulped the liquid down my throat .
Suddenly while having water i saw the door to the balcony opened on its own with a huge bang !!! which made the bottle to slip through my fingers resulting in almost drenching myself .
And the curtains hanging infront of the door started to fly here n there .
Darn!!!
I groaned then standing up went to close the door . I was going to close the door when i heard a sweet sound coming from outside.
While roaming my eyes at every inch of the small balcony i saw a small wind chime hanging high at one of the corner above the railing which was making that beautiful sound because of the wind blowing .
I stood all mesmerized by the sound then strolled towards it and stood near it by the support from the railing .
'I don't know why this sound felt so familiar .....like i have heard it before. It felt very close to my heart ... very much close . '

Getting on my toes i touched the rusty old thing and a small smile crept onto my face.
So beautiful!!!
Bringing it down i stroked it as gently as possible .
Suddenly a huge knock at the door scared me because of which the wind chim dropped out of my hands on the floor .
Who's it ??.... i thought and then slowly slowly went to open the door .
On opening the door i came across a horrified Tanya heavily panting standing with the support from the nearby wall.
"What happened to you Navya ? Why did you ran from the hospital? " she asked
Before answer her questions i took her inside and we both settled on my bed . Then i gave her the waterbottle . She gulped the remaining liquid and then turned towards me .
"I.... i.. "
My own voice betrayed me .I wasn't able to tell her anything so i lied to her that i wasn't able to see Sophie in such a state which was partially true .
" That's it ..... Navya . And we thought that something bad happened to you . You know how much worried i and Ayush were . "
I kept myself silent controlling my emotions as much as i can . Then my eyes went back to the door of the balcony .
Wind chime!!!
Standing i went back to the balcony with Tanya following me with her questionaire . Reaching there i picked up the wind chime from the floor and turned around
" i am going home in the morning " i said
Eyeing the old rusty stuff in my hands she asked
" You what ?? And you didn't told me ? And what is this ?"
I told her about our mother daughter conversation to which she herself agreed and told me to have a break . Maybe i am feeling homesick .
After our talk we both went back to the bed . Placing the wind chime on the study table we drifted off to sleep .
---------------------------------------
Next morning i packed my bag and after having the breakfast i left for my home which because of the traffic jam took almost 1 hour to reach . Reaching home i was welcomed by my mom as both dad and Naksh were gone to their respective office . Talking to mom really calmed me alot . Her warm embrace was what i craved for .
In the evening both dad and Naksh came back and Naksh gave us a good news of being
awarded as the best intern of the year next week so we all thought of going out for dinner.
So Naksh decided the restaurant of his choice and we all left for it. Reaching there we went to our favourite place ... rooftop and took our table at one of the isolated corner and ordered our meal.
After giving the orders we all started our conversation . Our blabbers ,me and Naksh arguing and fighting over small things , mom scolding us and giving us her death glares to stop our nonsense there only and dad smilling and laughing at us on being scolded.
This is what i needed ......
My family .... being with them i forgot all those dreadful nights . Hope it remains like this .
Soon our food arrived and we started eating and both me and Naksh again started fighting over our meals now .
While eating i got a call . On taking out my phone from the pocket i saw Tanya flashing on it .
Picking up the call i said hello but nothing came from the opposite side . Thinking of it as a network problem i excused myself and came outside near the swimming pool. But still no one spoke . Taking it as a que i cut the call and was turning around to go back when don't know how i slipped and landed harshly in the pool .
I started to swim upwards to get myself out of the pool but it felt like my left foot got stuck somewhere as i wasn't able to lift myself up. Soon my whole body started going down against my will like someone was pulling me deep down but i didn't dare to lose and kept pushing myself upwards but all in vain .
Atlast i left the hope and let myself drown deep into the pool . My eyes started to droop but i felt someone took my hand and pulled me upwards ..... outside the pool.
On Coming outside i felt someone patting my face. I somehow gained consciousness but with blurry vision wasn't able to register my surrounding but soon my visioned clear and i saw .....
I saw a girl standing on the rooftop with her face covered with her long black hair and....and ... a wind chime in her right hand ......
The same wind chime .....
Soon i again became unconscious.
