Where Were You?

3 - Bhooth!!

Mallika layed comfortably looking at the fan above her and remembering how her life took a turn which changed her whole life. Suddenly.....

Mallika's POV

My eyes were dropping because of the tiredness.

That's when,

I looked at my front to see a girl in white dress.

"Aaahhh"

I shrieked seeing her so sudden.

"What?".

She asked scared a little at my sudden reaction.

"Who are you?".

"Main..kya thum mujhse pooch rahi hon?".

She asked pointing to herself.

I looked around and asked.

"Kya tumhe yaha koi aur dik rahi hai?".

"Yay!!!!".

She started to jump in excitement.

"You can see me!".

Was it a question or...

"Ofcourse i can see yo-".

I noticed something on the mirror. Her reflection.

THERE'S NO REFLECTION OF HER IN THE MIRROR.

"BHOOTH!!!!!".

I screamed loudly and looked at her with wide eyes.

"Bhooth, kaha hai bhooth"

She started to panic and running around the room finding a place to hide.

All this time i was just looking at her. don't know why but i don't feel afraid.

She stopped suddenly as it seemed something stuck on her mind.

"Wait.....kya tum mujhe bhooth bhula rahe ho?".

I nodded slowly.

"Tum itni cute si sweet si beautiful ladki ko bhooth kaise bol sakthi hun".

She huffed, crossing her arms across her chest.

"Agar tumhe koi bhooth dekha toh tum kya kehkar chillaavoge". I asked innocently.

"Bhooth" she said proudly.

"Main bhi wahi kar rahi hun".

"Tumhara...tumhara matlab main tumhe bhooth jaisi dikhthi hoon, batao kis angle bhooth dikhrahi ho".

I couldn't help but chuckle at her.
"Main koi bhooth vooth nahi hun. Main Avneet hun".

"Avneet....kya tum wahi ho?".

I asked her indicating towards my heart.

She nodded. I can't believe it? There is a bhooth here and I'm not afraid and I can see her.

"I'm Mallika".
"Kya sirf main hi tumhe dek sakthi hoon".

I asked getting down from the bed. She came to hold me. But her hand went through mine and didn't made any contact.

I looked at her to see her disappointed. I tried to touch her hand only to pass through her hand again.

"Wh-why can't i touch you?".

"Kya tum bool rahi hon ki main ek bho- meri matlab ek spirit hoon".

She bit her tongue realizing her mistake.

I smiled at her cuteness.

"Tumhe kaisa pata chala ki sirf main tumhe dek sakthi hoon?".

I asked sitting on the chair near the bed.

She sat on the bed. I looked her surprised.

"I can sit okay".

I nodded.

"Ab tumhari sawal ki jawaab. Jab main meri body se nikla tha thab koi mujhe nahi deka. Meri behen, friends, meri behen ki friends sab meri body ko dekar shock hogayi thi aur sab ro rahi thi. Main sabke naam pukaara. Sabko choone ki koshish ki, lekin kuch nahi hua".

Tears were forming in her eyes as she spoke every word.

"Hey it's okay".

I smiled. She returned it.

I laughed as a thought something.

"Kyun hass rahi hon?".

"Main yeh soch rahi thi ki mujhe deko-".

"Haan tumhe dek rahi hoon".

She said changing her sitting position into Indian style.

(A/N like crossing legs while sitting on floor or something. If you don't know.)

I glared at her.

"Let me finish it".

"Haan, haan".

"Every girl is afraid about ghost-".

"I'm not a GHOST".

"LET ME FINISH IT. I WAS SAYING THAT GIRLS ARE AFRAID OF GHOSTS AND LOOK HERE I'M SPEAKING TO ONE".

I said loudly as i could.

"Ma-a'am"

A nurse opened the door. She was looking scared. Must be the yelling.

"I'm fine. Do you want anything".

I said going back to the bed.

I looked at Avneet who was laughing at me. I glared at without the nurse's notice.

"There are some people who wants to meet. should i send them in...?".

"Yeah, you can".

I said.

"O-okay".

She was still scared. I gave her a smile.

I turned towards Avneet when the nurse went out, who was still laughing.

"Bhooth!"

"Kuch bhi magar bhooth nahi bolna".

"Bhooth"

"Nahi"

"Bhooth"

"Nahi"

"Bhooth"

"Nahi"
