SHADOWED LOVE

Chapter 7-What’s Going On

“Ok. I can understand your situation, but there is something more I want to say. It’s regarding your friends. Just beware of someone called......... The caller spoke this and then there was silence. Shalini was thinking and trying to predict what was he about to say. She was surfing on her thoughts. She was waiting but soon the call was off. The caller had it cut and gone leaving Shalini in suspense.

Shalini was lost in thoughts. She was thinking about her parents and how they were, how she spent time with them. It was now all gone. Every this was now in her heart and her mind. Somebody just added salt to her wounds and had left her in sorrow. She started to cry. Finally the strong, independent Shalini was now broken from inside, she needed those warm hugs, those conforming smiles from her parents. She needed someone by her side but all she had were non-living things which could not hug her back. She hugged her teddy bear but that also didn’t help her to make her feel better, and she slept crying inside her heart. She was cold. Her heart was heavy and sank with her sleep.

The next morning Shalini was sad because the memories had been striking again and again. She managed to fake a smile though. She went to her college not knowing about what had happened the last night with everybody.

Shalini met everybody and told them that yesterday she talked to the caller and got to know something from him which was not supposed to be known by him. She told everyone what had happened that day when her parents died. She was broken inside but she didn’t let that show anybody. Everybody started to give her condolence and sympathy but she denied it and asked everybody’s help to finally get rid of out of maniac. She was seriously fed up of everything he had been doing and now the fact he told has crossed all the limits.

Just when she asked everybody for help, Devika spoke, “Shalini, Umm… I also got the call from the caller and he told me to be aware and take care of you.”

I asked him again and again who the hell he is and what the hell was going and when would he be ending it! But he didn’t give any response. I was tensed about it how to tell but now when you have told what he has done, I will help you in any case possible.

Shalini was confused and now the game of this shadowed guy has been gone on a new and higher level. He was now targeting her friends and calling them rather than coming in light himself and showing and confronting every damn thing. Shalini was filling with anger and she now could do anything to unmask this guy was a pain in their life since few days. While she was thinking a way to find who this guy is, suddenly Rahul said he also got the call after 12 in the night and then everybody joined with Devika and Rahul. Everybody in the group was getting calls except one.

Sumit was away from everybody. He was in Mumbai unknown of whatever was going on in Delhi here. He was auditioning his band was working very hard. Meanwhile in Delhi everybody was now angry and frustrated on this guy. They wanted to end it. But they couldn’t fathom any solution to the maze.

Shaurya suggested reporting it to police but Shalini didn’t want it. She told it to be the final and the last option if nothing happens. Others suggested different ways but no idea was helping them. They thought and discussed it over. Suddenly, when everybody was discussing how to get rid this guy, they got a message from the private number. It read as “I Love Shalini.”

Nothing else was written. Everybody’s phone beeped and the message was same on everybody’s screen.

Now the rage between all was going high. Everybody was irritated, frustrated, agitated and annoyed. Just then a call came from Sumit.
