Twilight in the arms

DARKNESS

AUTHER'S POV

Shalini's directly went to her hostel room and changed her clothes. She didn't eat her dinner because she didn't felt like having it.

Feeling cold she tugged herself into the blanket and put her headphone in her ears to calm herself down. And she was feeling lonely.

Shaam Sawere teri yaadein aati hain
Aake dil ko mere yu tadpati hain
O Sanam Mohabbat ki kasam,

Milke bichad na to dastoor ho gaya
Yadoon mein teri majboor hogaya
O Sanam teri yadoon ki kasam

Samjhe zamaana ke dil he khilona
Jaana hai ab kya hai dil ka lagana
Nazroon se ab na humko girana
Mar bhi gaye toh bhul na jaana.

Ankhon mein bassee ho
Par door ho kaheen
Dil ke kareeb ho
Yeh mujhko hai yakeen
O Sanam tere pyar ki kasam.

During listening, she fell into deep slumber so fast that she couldn't even have time to turn off the music. And she slept like a baby.

In the morning, she got ready for university. She didn't have her breakfast, didn't call her parents or listen to the morning music that is her everyday routine as she was not feeling well and then she walked towards her department.

Her phone's battery was dead because she couldn't switch off the music last night and it was drained now.

But she didn't know till now about the phone.

She directly went to the canteen to have her coffee where she met Akshi as always for a little morning study drill. But she was absent yesterday because of some of her reason.

They started studying and discussing about the stuff which they were going through. While doing this Akshi's hand accidentally touched Shalini's hand.

"Shallu," she said in a worried tone.

"You are burning like hell," she said while putting her hand on Shalini's forehead.

"You have a fever and that also very much. Why did you come to University today? Did you take medicine for it? She started shooting her questions like anything.

" Hmmm... I'm fine"  said Shalini in a low voice.

"How are you fine? You sit here, I'll get some medicine for you from the medical room" said Akshi while picking up her bag from the table.

" You don't have to do that," said Shalini while scratching her neck.

"Whatever, sit here I'll be here in a minute," said  Akshi and rushed towards the medical room.

Shalini was having a fever but some other thing was also bothering her. She picks her phone to check something on her phone because she was getting some stupid texts from the past few days and tried to ON her cellphone, but it didn't. The phone was dead.

She took a deep breath and remember that she left Her few things including her charger in the laboratory after yesterday's incident.

She raises her body from the table with difficulty, her head was painting pathetically and started walking towards the laboratory.

She was walking slowly towards her destination in the corridor but suddenly she felt a sudden pull to her body that somebody dragged her into a room with full darkness, not even a single ray of light was there.
