Manjot's POV
"Thank you" I said to Bandana as she gave me a glass of water.

I was sitting on the bed and she was standing in front of me, waiting for me to finish drinking.

My eyes were fixed on her face, she was looking somewhere else.

I gave her the empty glass, she turned to leave, I held her hand. I stood up, "do din se ro rhi thi?" I asked looking at her puffy eyes, she lowered her lashes.

"Woh...nhi ro nhi rhi thi" She said, "aankhe kyu soojhi hai fir?" I asked, "g...ghar pe kucch kaam nhi hota tha to soti rehti thi. Zada sone ki wajah se esa hua hoga" She said turning.

"Bandana..." I said holding her elbow and making her look at me.

"I'm so sorry" I said cupping her face, "aage se tumhe saath leke jaya karunga".

She started crying, "Bandana me aa gaya hu na ab" I said trying to stop her from crying.

"Mujhe room me nhi jaana" She said, "room me? Kyu?" I asked.

"Waha kucch hai" She replied, "kya??" I asked.

Bandana's POV
Manjot left, it was late so I decided to sleep.

I was tired and still I couldn't sleep.

I turned to my right, my hand was on the empty side of the bed.

I felt something liquid, there was blood on my hand and on the bed.

The blood was fresh.

I sat on the bed and switched on the lights.

I was trembling in fear. I left the room and went to Sameeksha's room.

She opened the door, I hugged her tightly, she made me sit and drink some water.

I was crying continuously, she washed my hand which had blood on it.

"Shaant hoja, abhi yahi soja, subhah dekhenge kya karna hai" She said.

I nodded and slept there.

Manjot's POV
"To woh blood aaya kaha se?" I asked, "pata nhi. Subhah dekha to sab saaf tha, waha koi gaya bhi nhi. Apne aap saaf ho gaya" She explained.

All these incidents were not normal, the best person to ask for help was Mahi Bhai.

That evening we decided to meet him so we went to his place.

As soon as I got out of the car, I saw Ziva running towards me.

I picked her up, "Hey Princess!" I said, "Princess ki chocolate?" She asked, "Chachu ki kissy?" I asked. She placed a kiss on me cheek. I chuckled and gave her a bar of her favourite chocolate.

"Thank you!!!" She said, I put her down and she started running. "Hey, usme mera bhi hissa hai!!" I said, "aap kon?" She shouted back. I widened my mouth, Bandana started laughing. I shook my head and we headed towards the entrance.

Bhabhi greeted us with a bright smile, Mahi Bhai was playing with Ziva and their dogs.

He took a seat on the couch and Ziva sat on his lap, eating the chocolate that she was supposed to share.

Bandana and I were sitting in front of them. "Bandana ghar pe sab manage kar rhi ho?" Bhai asked, Bandana nodded slightly.

"Bhai kucch zaruri baat karni thi" I said, he nodded.

"Ghar pe boht ajeeb cheeze ho rhi hai. Pehle mere saath aur ab Bandana ke saath. Abhay bhi bata raha tha ke Sameeksha ke saath bhi boht ajeeb incidents hue hai in dino" I said.

"Kya baat hai?" He asked, I told him about all the incidents that happened with us.

"Yaar tu to dara raha hai" He said, "Bhai hamara socho, roz kucch na kucch hota hai" I replied.

"Ghar pe baat ki?" He asked, I shook my head. "To pehle unse kar na" He said.

"Unse zada aap'pe bharosa hai" I said, He smiled, "me maanta to nhi iss sab me par...paranormal...?" He said hesitatingly.

"Mujhe bhi yehi darr hai. Par samajh nhi aa raha ke hamare saath kyu ho raha yeh. Jab se hamari shaadi ki tayaariyan shuru hui hai tabse ho raha" I said.

"Ek hi ladki hai jo teri help kar sakti hai, Shub ki fiancé" He said, "Pragya?" I asked, he nodded. "Woh to psychiatrist hai" I said, "paranormal activity pe research kar rhi hai woh. Suna hai hai PhD bhi kar rakhi hai" He said.

"Shub se baat karta hu fir" I said. I looked at Ziva, she was staring at me. I stuck my tongue out at her, she showed me the last bit of chocolate and ate it.

I shook my head, "aage se thenga milega tumhe" I said, "mere papa chocolate laenge mere lie" She said hugging Mahi Bhai, "Bhai me team ke lie batting nhi karunga agar isko chocolate di" I said.

"Dharam sankat me fass gaya me to. I think we should have dinner" He said and started walking towards the dining table.

Ziva and I were staring at each other and walking at the same time.

I tripped over the carpet, Bandana held my arm.

I looked at her, you can't tell she has such a firm grip by looking at her. She literally saved me from falling, how strong is that!

Ziva was laughing her heart out, "pehle to tumhe batata hu" I said picking her up, "sorry bolo" I said, he shook her head.

"Neeche gira dunga" I said almost leaving her, "sorry sorry sorry" She said, I put her down, "good. Never mess up with me" I said. She went to complain to Mahi Bhai.
