Chapter 6: Past Haunting and Future Happenings


That night in Kanya’s Cabin, she was sitting alone -Tommy had gone to sleep after all that fuss and now Pooja was also asleep.

Kanya sat on the rug near the fire place looking at a picture of Ranbir... she went back to the day she left him.

Flash back

Ranbir came home to find the house in darkness. His heart started to beat faster. Kanya was supposed to be home by now after all it was their second wedding anniversary and even though they had been going through a rough patch in their marriage Kanya had agreed to be home that night.

He went through the whole house shouting for her. He went to their bedroom and found kanya sitting in the dark there looking pale. There were a few suitcases packed in front of her.

“Kanya, what is all this? Why is it so dark in the house? You’re scared of the dark and why are you sitting here like this?’ He asked worried.

Kanya looked at Ranbir forcing him to realize that she had been crying.

“I am leaving you.” Kanya told him emotionlessly.

“What?” He asks stunned at her statement.

“Didn’t you hear? I am leaving you. You, this house, this relationship...I am leaving everything behind.” She shouted at him.

“Why Kanya?” He whispered.

“Ranbir, I know everything Kavita told me!” She shouted.

“Who is this Kavita?” Ranbir asked surprised.

“Your Mistress!” kanya shouted crying.

“M-m-my m-mistress? What are you talking about? “ Ranbir could not believe the accusations that were coming out of his dear wife’s mouth.

“I saw the doctor’s reports...now I understand why you always come home late and have so many meetings-“

“She is lying.” Ranbir interrupted her rant.

“Why would she lie?” Kanya scoffed.

“But...Kanya I would not lie to you. I am not having an affair with Kavita.” Ranbir tried to reason with her.

“There was a time when I would have trusted you with my eyes closed but when she showed me those photograph, those gifts, doctor’s reports...why did you do this Ranbir? Was there something missing in my love? What was it? Why Ranbir?” Kanya says quietly but with so much venom in her tone.

“I am not lying; I did not have an affair with Kavita.” Ranbir tried to convince her desperately.

“Ranbir, I am hurt, I am leaving.” Kanya says with no room for argument.

Ranbir was now angry. How could Kanya believe some stranger- because that was what his new secretary Kavita was a stranger- over him?

“Kanya if you walk out that door I won't come after you.” Ranbir attempted one last time.

Kanya did not turn around and just walked out of the house, out of his life and out of the marriage.

Four years had passed and Tommy was going to be four years old in two months.

Why Ranbir why did you throw our marriage away? Why did you spoil me for any other man? Why did you not love me enough to come after me? Why did you leave me incomplete? With these questions Kanya fell asleep on the rug.

In Edinburgh ranbir was staring at their wedding picture.Why did you not trust me enough Kanya? Why did you not believe in us and our love? Why did you leave me incomplete? With these questions Ranbir stared at the picture till he fell asleep on the sofa.

The next morning the sun was shining brightly and the birds were singing. In the boys cabin U-know was tip toeing out of his room. In the girls cabin KC was tip toeing out of her room. In the dining room KC runs into Jouty who had gotten up early to revise for her exam.

“Why are you up so early and where are you going?” Jouty asked liek a worried mother.

“I have to meet the dean. You know papa's friend is coming on the weekend I have to make sure everything is ready.” KC lied convincingly in her point of view.

“...this early? Are you lying to me Miss. Chatterji?” Jouty asked with narrowed eyes staring KC down.

“Now, why would I lie to my bestest friend in the world?” KC asked sweetly.

“mmhhm I am sure. Just be careful.” Jouty goes back to revising.

“Why is everyone always telling me to be careful these days. I am a big girl and I can look after myself.” KC whined.

“Ofcourse...ofcourse, I never said otherwise. I am just cautioning you.” Jouty tried to placate her.

KC walked out the door and ran all the way to boy's cabin to meet up with U-know.

U-know was waiting at a tree in-between their cabin.

“sshhh pshhh over here.” U-know tried to KC’s attention having seen her run past him.

KC stopped in her tracks and turned around to see's U-know waiting at the tree. She ran straight into his arm.

“Well this is a good way to get up in the morning and something to look forward to. I can get used to this.” U-know said with a smile.

KC took his hand and dragged him towards their special cove.

“Why are we here?” U-know asked confused at her reason for coming here.

“Because this is the only time we can spend alone without the rest of the gang knowing unless you want to come here at night?” KC said suggestively.

“At night...that has its appeal.” U-Know teased her.

KC hit him on the shoulder. U-know took her in his arms and was about to kiss her when her mobile phone rang.

In all seriousness, U-know asked KC if he could break the phone for interrupting them. He ignored the ringing and began to kiss her cheek.

“Yunho, I have to take this call.” KC explained to him patiently.

“Okay.” A pout formed on his mouth making KC laugh.

She kissed him on the cheek and answered the phone before he could turn his face.

“Hello.”

“Who is this?”

“Kaula... who are you?” KC asked confused.

“Hey Kaula, it is Ranbir. How are you?” The caller finally identified himself.

“Ranbir, I am well, how are upit?” She answered

U-know tensed when he heard a guys name and let go of KC to walk away but she put her arm around his waist to keep him next to her.

“I am well. I just wanted to let you know I have changed my plans. I'll be arriving in Lerwick today.”

KC asked Ranbir to hold on a minute and covered the mouth peice.

“Chill U-know he is an associate of my dad’s who is coming here for business and I was arranging his staying plans and all.”

A smile formed on his face hearing this.

“Sorry about that Ranbir... yeah sure I'll let my dean know that I need the cabin and jeep today.” replied KC.

“Thank you Kaula. I'll see you soon then.” said Ranbir.

“Yeah just call me when you get here and I'll come pick you up.” Replied KC

“Okay yea sure” said Ranbir

“Wait a minute is it okay if I bring someone with me?” KC asked as an afterthought

This peaked Ranbir's interests, “a boy friend huh!” he said.

“No just a friend...” KC mumbled out mentally kicking herself for asking.

“Are you sure just a friend?” Ranbir couldn’t resist teasing, but before KC could reply he continued “Is this the dude you were just reassuring right now? If it is I would love to meet him”

“You’re sharp I have to say...” KC chuckled “but I have one favour to ask you?”

“Sure” Ranbir said

“None of our friends know so please try not to let it slip out” KC warned him and added as an afterthought “... and please don't mention it to my family”

“Not a problem as long as I think he deserves you” Ranbir replied

“Well when you meet him u can tell me but I'm sure the both of you will get along well” KC whispered to Ranbir

“I am sure since he is chosen by you” Ranbir whispered back.

“So I'll see you soon” Laughed KC “bye, have a nice flight”

“See you in a few hours... and don't be too naughty with your man... bye” Ranbir teased

“Bye” KC replied laughingly. She hung up and turned around to face U-know

“Jealous were we?” KC teased

“Who me?” U-know asked innocently.

KC grabbed his face and told him “yes you.”

U-know burst out laughing “maybe a small amount of green monster was getting to me”

“Well the green monster can go back.” KC said kissing his cheek, “because you have no reason to be jealous.”

“So what’s happening?” U-know ask holding KC in his arms

“Well will you come to the dean with me and then the airport when Ranbir gets here.” KC replied playing with Yunho’s button.

“Sure...” U-know replied brushing the hair out of KC’s face “I'll come with you but how will we get to airport?”

He grabbed her hand and they both started to walk towards the dean’s office.

“The jeep that's how” KC answered his question.

“And may I ask who is driving the jeep?” U-Know asked playing with KC’s fingers

“Me who else...” KC replied

U-know shook his head “uh uh... no way... I have seen u drive and u drive like a lunatic...”

KC hit him hard on the shoulder “how mean? Fine sit here and I'll go to the airport myself” She pulled her hand from his and started to walk.

U-know grabbed her and pulled her into his arms, “do you know how cute you look when you are angry... I just love it when you get mad... Your eyes light up... all that fire and passion...” U-know said. He pulled away and winked at her.

KC looked at him seriously and said “U-know stop it... first u insult my driving then u try and flirt your way into forgiveness”

U-know went for the poor lost puppy look and said “ok I'm going to make it up to my Koala bear... how about a moonlight ride on my bike? Tonight?”

KC looked at him suspiciously “not tonight” she said “I have to entertain my guest... and I'm counting on you and the rest to keep me company”

“Ok on the weekend?” He asked excitedly

“Ok we'll go on Saturday” she replied, grabbed his hand and pulled him “now let's go to the dean's office”

They went to the dean's office and sorted out all the arrangements for Ranbir. KC took the keys for the jeep and then they both headed off to uni.

“What do you have now?” U-know asked as they got near to the lecture theatres

“Professional Practise... what about you?” she replied as they walked towards the early years faculty.

“I'm actually free the whole morning so I'll just chill in the library and come pick you up when you are done” he replied.

“You should have said” she said “we wouldn't have met so early in the morning. You could have had a lie in.”

“Yeah I know” U-know looked deep into KC’s eyes, “but I wanted to see you and a lie in wouldn't have been fun because I would have been awake thinking about u.”

KC raised her eyebrow and said “How thick are you planning to lay on the butter?”

U-know looked innocently “huh”

“I know u want to meet up tonight after we finish with Ranbir” KC looked at him with a sly smile

U-know laughed “can you blame me?”

“We’ll see what time we finish ok” KC said squeezing his hand.

They got to her lecture theatre and U-know walked her to the door “Here we are”. He turned to her and kissed her on the forehead. “Miss me” He said.

“Don’t Fall asleep in the library” KC replies standing on her toes and kissing his cheek. “Bye”

“Later Babe” U-know replied.

KC walked into her class while U-know headed off to the library. Meanwhile back in Edinburgh Ranbir was getting ready to leave to go to the airport. Aditya arrived to pick him up and on the way to the airport...

“Pooja didn’t go to Aberdeen!” Aditya announced once they were on the way to the airport. He looked at Ranbir’s face to watch his reaction.

“What!” Ranbir replied in shock “explain!”

“Uhhhh... I called the hotel in Aberdeen and they told me that she cancelled the booking 2 days before.” Aditya explained quickly

“She is with Kanya, but where are they. If I didn’t have to go to Lerwick I would go and find Pooja myself. I will have to sort things out when I get back in the meantime do not under any circumstances let her suspect that we know she wasn’t in Aberdeen.” Ranbir said to Aditya not knowing what awaited him in Lerwick

“We are here are u ready?” Aditya looked at Ranbir

Ranbir sighed and replied “yes I am.”

They reached the airport and Ranbir checked in and waited to board his flight. Back in Lerwick...

Pooja was nagging at Kanya “Kanya please you promised you would introduce me to your interesting art class.”

Kanya looked at her sister. Sometimes she wondered who was older. She replied “Yeah ok I am sending a message to them. Be patient they could be anywhere in the university.”

Kanya called the reception and asked that her students from Art class A to be sent to her office immediately...
The message was announced on the universities loud speaker system and the gang who were in various parts of the university trudged off to Kanya's office in the art faculty.

Kanya looked apologetically at her students “sorry for bringing you all out of your classes,” she looked up at her sister “but my dear sister here wanted to meet you all.

Pooja looked at the students and smiled “hi... I'm Pooja... I have to say I have heard a lot about you all.”

“Well we haven't heard anything about you so you have the advantage over us.” Micky said nonchalantly

“Let me guess” Pooja said “you have the smart mouth so you must be U-know”

“Nope that would be me.” U-know said waving her hand

Pooja turned to see U-know leaning on the wall.

“Right sorry... then you are?” Pooja asked looking at Micky

“This is Micky” Jouty replied “and I am...” But before Jouty could finish Pooja said “Jouty... right...”

“Right...” Jouty replied impressed. As they were chatting a mobile phone stared to ring. Everyone turned to look at KC who was franticly searching for her mobile in her bag. KC looked up and saw everyone looking at her “sorry”. She continued to look for it in her bag when a voice said “It might be helpful if you checked you pockets first.” KC looked up to see Yunho smiling his I know it all smile. She patted her pockets and realised he was right. She removed it and looked at the screen to see who the caller was. “excuse me” she said and left the room but not before trying to get U-know's attention...but since he was too busy looking at everyone else but her she didn’t manage to do that and left the room

“Hello” KC said when she picked the phone.

“Kaula hi, I'm here just picking my luggage” Ranbir said on the other side.

“Give me 20 minutes and I'll be there...” KC said to Ranbir

“See you soon then, bye” Ranbir said

“Bye” KC said and hung up putting her phone away. She went back into the office. “I'm sorry Miss Kanya but I have to pick a guest from the airport for the Dean.” She turned to look at U-know who was day dreaming, “U-know lets go or are you planning to stay here?”

U-know looked up startled “Huh... uh oh yeah... I got to go too... see you later Miss Kanya”

KC waved “bye guys” She walked to the door then stopped and looked back “and btw Miss Pooja... I'm Kaula... bye” she waved and walked out.

Both KC and U-know left to go to the airport. There they met Ranbir. Ranbir saw KC for the first time and had very protective feelings for her, he felt like she was the younger sister he had always wanted. Ranbir looked at U-know seriously trying to measure him up. The boy is good looking and looks like he cares thought Ranbir but he still said “I hope you are looking after my little sister”

“Of course I am” U-know replied with indignation.

Ranbir put his hands up, “just checking”.

U-know looked away murmuring to himself “looks like another drill sergeant has arrived”.

KC looked up at him “did you say something?”

“No just thinking out loud.” U-know replied smiling at KC

KC looked at him knowingly “right” She then turned to Ranbir and said “Ranbir tonight you are having dinner at our cabin.”

Ranbir looked up surprised at the invitation. He didn’t even know this girl and yet she was going out of her way to make his stay as easy and as comfortable as possible. He said to her politely “please don't go to too much trouble on my account.”

KC smiled effectively knocking his reply to the ground “no trouble at all.”

U-know helped Ranbir with his bags; they sat in the car, left the airport and made their way to the university. On the road they missed seeing Kanya's car heading towards the airport.

Kanya hugged her sister tight “di I wish you could stay longer”

Pooja hugged her back “me too but if I don’t go to Aberdeen they will suspect.

Kanya pulled herself away, tears in her eyes “I'll miss you di.”

“So will I” said Pooja “Take care of yourself and Tommy”

“I will...” Kanya replied

They got to the airport and Pooja hugged her sister and left as Kanya had to get back to university for a class. On the way back she started to think about her favourite students she realised she could have give KC and U-know a lift to the airport but she hadn’t realize then. Back at the campus KC and U-know showed Ranbir his Cabin and gave him a quick tour before they both had to get back to class.

“Are you guys sure you're going to class or are you playing hooky?” Ranbir asked teasingly
__________
Naina and Xiah were sitting in the student lounge reading some poems for creative writing.
“Have you noticed something?” Naina’s question broke the silence in the lounge. Xiah looked up from his book confused.

“I haven’t seen KC and U-Know fight since the day she ran from art class.” Naina explained.

“Maybe they haven’t had anything to fight about.” Xiah countered.

“Did you know he brought her in last night... apparently she fell asleep in one of the chillax coves and he found her?” Naina said skeptically.

“You’re kidding me.”

“Do you think there’s something going on between them?” Naina asked suspiciously.

Xiah thought about Naina’s question for a few minutes before replying. “Maybe, I mean even today he went with her to pick that guest. Why would KC take him when she could have taken Jouty?”

“There’s definitely something fishy.” Naina stated her mind working on overdrive.

Xiah shifted closer to Naina causing her attention to shift to him forgetting about KC and U-know. “Let’s not worry about them...let’s worry about us.”

“What is there to worry about? You’re mine and mine alone.” Naina said with certainty.

“Oh and when did we decide this?” Xiah didn’t remember if and when they became a couple.

“Do you like me?” Naina asked seriously.

“No, I don't think I like you.” Naina was shocked but before she could say anything he continued.
“I don't think I like you because I think I have fallen in love with you.”

“I am sorry I didn’t hear you. Can you repeat that please?”

“I think I love you.”

“Can you say it again without I think.” Naina pushed.

While walking towards class Tamara received a text message. She took it out and saw that it was from KC saying they were having guests for dinner. She was so engrossed in reading the message and didn’t notice lump on the ground. She trips over straight into max and they both tumbled to the ground.

“Are you okay?” Tamara asked worried to see Max rubbing his head.

“I am good. You? Any damage?”

“No, just my pride.”

“Is there a really hot photo of me in your cell phone that had you lost in your world?” Max teased.

“You wish!” She retorted.

“I can always hope--” He was cut off by his cell phone ringing. He saw that it was a message from U-know informing him of the dinner that night. “Looks like we’ll be having dinner together.” He informed Tamara. “That was U-Know saying that were going to have dinner at yours.” He elaborated when she just looked at him confused.

“I Know, KC said guests were coming but you guys aren’t exactly guests are you?” She asked.

“I think there might be some other people coming nevertheless I’ll see you tonight.” He smiled.

“Yeah it looks like I’ll be cleaning for you guys.” She said playfully. Max just looked at her stunned with unshed tears in his eyes.

“What’s wrong Max?” Tamara asked worried.

“th-the way you said that reminded me of someone.”

“Who?” She asked curious.

“My wife.” Max told her. She is shocked and wondered if she may have heard wrong.

“Your wife?” However, Max just stands there looking at her. She reached out to touch him.

“Are you okay?” She asked him softly. After a few seconds of no response she hugs him. “It’s okay, I know how you feel.”

Max is stunned at this girl who is hugging him. She reminded him so much of his Tammy. He could feel a connection with her but Tammy was the love of his life. Then why did he feel this way around Tamara. She only shared his wife’s name. She wasn’t his wife. Was he betraying his Tammy by feeling this way? It certainly felt like betrayal. He pushed her away. “I am sorry Tamara I shouldn’t have broken down like that.”

She could feel his pain but what ws worse was that she felt hurt for him feeling the need to apologize for sharing his emotions with her.

“It’s okay Max, I have to go I have a reading study to attend.” Max could glimpse the hurt in her eyes but couldn’t say anything to reassure her that it wasn’t her fault. A few minutes later Tamara is no where in his sight. He could feel a pang in his heart.

Tamara bumped into U-know on her way to the study session.

“You okay?” U-know asked concerned about the expression on her face.

“Can I ask you something?” She said instead. “Is Max married?” She continued without waiting for permission.

U-know only confirmed this along with saying that he felt bad for him. Tamara is puzzled. Why would U-Know feel bad for Max?

“Why?”

“I think he should be the one to tell you.” U-know said matter of factly.

“grrrr” She just punches him for his response. In return he just stares at her. After a few minutes she starts to feel self-concious. Why is he staring at me intensely? She thought.

“What?” She finally blurted out not being able to bear his staring.

“You just punched me.” He answered.

“So...” Tamara looked at him when he didn’t elaborate.

“Well...”

“Just tell me already or it’s going to drive me crazy!” She said impatiently.

“I am just surprised that you actually punched me. You don’t seem the violent type.”

Tamara just looked at him amazed for a few minutes. “Ugh your so U-Know.”

“Yes I know I am U-Know.” He retorted with a smile.

“I am goin g to my study session.” She said irritated.

“Sorry. I was just joking around. You just looked so sad and I though I’d cheer you up.”

“That’s a nice way of cheering someone up. If you had done that to KC, She would’ve torn strips of you...” Tamara trailed off. “I very seriously doubt.” U-know murmured. Tamara narrowed her eyes at him hearing that. U-know started to feel uneasy under her stare.

“What? I am stronger than her.” U-know tried to defend himself.

Tamara just rolled her eyes at him. “You’d never hurt her. So spill. I heard about last night.”

“Why does everything think I am a cold-hearted person? She would’ve gotten sick if I had left her there. If she got sick I would’ve suffered.” U-know replied getting worked up.

“Calm down. I better go I am already late. I’ll see you tonight.” Tamara said before running towards her study session. U-know started to head towards the gym.

In Ranbir’s cabin, he is trying to get her to cancel tonight’s dinner. “Please don’t go to so much trouble.”

“It’s no trouble. It’ll be a pleasure to cook for someone besides the girl.” She reassured him.

“So who else is coming to dinner?” He asked giving up on trying to get her to cancel it.

“Just my roommates, U-know’s room mates and our art teacher and her kid. I have to go and get everything ready” She answered.

Ranbir was glad to find out that he wasn’t going to be left alone with five girls.

KC left Ranbir’s cabin and headed to Kanya’s. She knocked on the door. A four year old boy opened the door. He was the most adorable kid she had ever seen. His face looked familiar somehow, but she couldn’t place him. It sent off ringing bells in her ehad but she just couldn’t figure out why he looked so familiar.

“Can I help you?” He asked looking up at her.

“Is your mom around?” KC asked looking behind him. “Mom...Mama there is someone at the door for you.” He yelled into the cabin.

“You have a loud voice. What’s your name?

“Tommy, that’s what my mom calls me.” He stood there looking at her with the most innocent eyes she had ever seen.

“Tommy how many times have I told you not to shout?” Kanya asked coming to the door.

Tommy apologized and went back to his game. “Bye pretty girl.” He winked at KC even though it came out more of as a blink.

“Bye you little heart breaker. He’s so cute. When he grows up he sure is going to break hearts.” KC said laughing.

Kanya looked at her little boy and said “well... I’ll train him.” She looked back up at KC and asked “anyways tell me what I can do for you?”

“Well I am here to invite you to dinner. The guys are coming around and my guest is here. So please
Would you and My Mr. handsome, I mean Tommy come? I’d love it if you would.” KC said to Kanya

“Ok that saves me cooking then. Want me to bring anything?” Kanya asked

“Just yourself and Tommy. Do you need to be picked up?” KC asked.

“No thank you.” Kanya replied “Knowing me I’ll probably end up early at your house. “

KC laughed “That’s ok I will probably put you to work. See you at 7:30 or 7:00”

“That’s no problem. Bye KC” Kanya said

“Bye Miss Kanya.” KC replied walking back to her cabin. She bumped into Max who’s face looked filled with guilt.

“Hey Max”

Max looked up to see KC. “hey”

KC looked at him doubtfully “what’s up? You look worried?”

Max looked innocently at her then shifted his eyes.

KC narrowed her eyes at Max “spill it Max.”

Max looked down. KC could feel the guilty vibes emanating from Max. He looked up his eyes sad. “I hurt someone’s feelings today. I didn't mean to but it just happened”

KC took his hand and smiled at him. “Then maybe you should go say sorry to this person”

Max looked at KC dumbfounded by her simple solution. “Yeah but I don't know how and I don't know if she will speak to me.”

KC’s eyes sparked up. She “ooo it’s a she.”

“Stop.” Max said leaving no room for discussion but KC still pushed. “Tell me who it is. Maybe, I can help you out.” Max refuses KC as politely as he could without hurting her feelings.

KC goes to the cabin to prepare for the meal and slowly one by one the girls come home and join in. At one point the kitchen was a mess. The girls had decided to have a food fight but slowly they cleaned up and had all the food ready. Since KC loved cooking she had prepared traditional Indian food. She made daal, butter chicken, tandoori nan, rice, gulab jamun, and besan ke ladoo.

At 7:00 pm the bell rang and KC rushed down. She opened the door to be greeted with an adorable “Hi Pretty lady.”

“I am not pretty right now but after I finish getting ready I sure will be.” KC replied winking at Tommy.

“I told you we would be early.” Kanya greeted KC.

“It’s okay, can you do me a favour and check if the food is alright?” KC asked. Kanya handed KC a sweet box before KC could leave. Her face lights up with what is inside. “Chocolate barfi, my favourite. After all I have done I deserve this. Thank you.” KC laughed.

KC took Kanya and Tommy to the kitchen. She left Kanya in the kitchen and puts lazy town on for Tommy. After she got ready she goes to check on Tommy only to see him playing with U-know.

“Tommy you really are a pro.”

“Well I play this at home.” Tommy replied.

“Oh I see? So did you just play me when you said you were bad at this game?” U-know asked in surprise.

“Nope I am bad at this game. I just didn't know you were even worse.” Tommy said cheekily.

KC couldn’t hold her laughter in and caught both of their attention. She was wearing a red and white kurti with blue jeans. U-know whistled

“Hey! Stop drooling over my pretty lady.” Tommy said affront.

“Yeah, this is my girlfriend.” Tommy answered U-know’s unspoken question.

U-knows murmur of “over my dead body” is unheard by Tommy and KC.

KC goes to the Kitchen to see most of the gang and asked where Rosh, Xiah and Max were.

Roshni walked in and heard KC’s question. “How many times have I told you not to call me that? I’t Roshni!”

Before KC could reply Max tells her that Max and Xiah went to pick up her guest.

“But they don’t know what he looks like.” KC wondered out loud.

“Relax I gave them the address. I don't think they are stupid enough to get lost.” U-know answered walking in holding Tommy upside down.

“They are not stupid!” Naina and Tamara exclaimed.

Before U-know could reply and tease them the doorbell rang.

Kanya closest to the door goes to get it not knowing what awaits her on the other side.

She opened the door and as soon as she got a look at what is on the other side she let the door go. The
door swung back and forth… Kanya, Ranbir, Kanya, Ranbir, Kanya, Ranbir, Kanya, Ranbir..

All of a sudden Kanya opened the door to see if she was seeing hallucinations. Ranbir walked in the door and touched her. As if his touch had put her on fire Kanya jumped away.

At the same time both of them pointed at each other and yelled

YOUUUUU

YOUUUU

YOUUU

YOUU

YOU

The echoes vibrated throughout the whole cabin
