SHYLA

Standing near the entrance of the club that I have been dragged into by Linda and peeking through the shoulders of a bunch of men standing in front of us I was able to see the beautiful lightings and hear the low music which was not so audible to outside.

"Why are these people not moving?" Ave said being completely irritated as the men in front of us were not moving inside the club as they were having beef with the security.

After a good 10 minutes we finally got to know that MEN infront of us were not men but BOYS.

Yes, the securities caught them after 10 minutes of investigation and got to know that they are some school fellows who were trying to enter into the club with fake identities.

"Can we just pretend to be school students so the security can kick us out of this shitty place too?" I whispered into Ave's ear.

"Oh how badly I wanna do that but the red woman infront of us gonna cancel us from her friendship list" Ave said while rolling her eyes.

"I already heard you guys! Let's go now!" Linda said as the security returned our cards after proper verification.

Entering into the place my ears got filled with loud music which was playing in the background.

My eyes fell on the men and women who were scattered in each and every corner of the club. Some people were drinking, dancing and the others were busy making out in some corners.

My eyes already filled with disgust and my breathes were already heavy due to the suffocation inside. Linda dragged me and Ave to the drinks counter.

It was a relief as it was the only place which was not so crowded.

"I don't think I can stay here for a whole hour Linda!" I said looking at the jerks who were already looking at us with their lusty eyes.

"Don't worry bae! I promise to take care of you both till the end" she said with her usual pretty smile.

"Now common guys, order yourselves drinks! It's my treat today." She said while clapping excitedly.

"I am gonna go to the dance floor.
Watch me!" Linda winked at us and went to the dance floor.

Her hips moved in a perfect way to the beats of the music making all the men in the dance floor already drool over her.

One thing I know for sure is that Linda has always been the centre of attention in every place due to her confidence, intelligence and ofcourse her beauty.

Looking at her all I can be is "Proud".
How I got so lucky to get a friend like her and Ave-

I turned to look at Ave who is standing beside me with an uncomfortable expression.

"What happened Ave? Everything's alright?" I asked being concerned about her.

"I think I wanna go to the washroom." Ave said in my ears as the loud music was making it impossible to hear what the other people are talking about.

"Sure let's go search for the washroom." I said while holding her hands.

"No you stay here shy! Or else Linda is gonna get worried if she doesn't see us both here. And yes put your phone in the vibration mode so that it would easy for you to know if anyone calls." Ave said and I nodded in response. She made her way towards the other side.

I watched her till she went out of my sight.

Taking out my phone from my jeans pocket I opened insta and started scrolling through it.
Looking at the new designs of many beautiful dresses of my favourite fashion designers my eyes sparkled with happiness. Designing is such a great creativity.

Seeing the people wearing those beautiful dresses and looking beyond gorgeous is a dream of every fashion designer who made the dress designs after so much efforts.

I came out of my own world when I felt someone was staring at me. My eyes roamed around the whole place scanning each and every corner.

My eyes fell on Linda who was still there on the dance floor flirting with some men and dancing.

Her eyes fell on me and her lips moved in some inaudible words.

I read her lips as she was asking me to come there on the dance floor.

I signalled her to say that I am fine here in this counter.

She understood it in a second and nodded.

My eyes then went towards the pool just beside the dance floor which was filled up with women wearing bikinis and the men who were half naked inside the pool.

I turned around to face towards the counter and not look at those half naked people.

The phone in my hand fell at some distance when I bumped into a man who was so drunk that his whole body smelled like alcohol.

"Hey sweetheart! Need some help?" He said while smiling more like smirking.

"No I'm fine!" I said and distanced myself as I went ahead to get my phone.

I bent to pick up my phone from the ground. As I was getting up my eyes fell on the pair of eyes which were standing at a distance infront of the entrance door.

My body became still. The place which was so loud before some time felt like a silent library now as I was not able to move and hear anything. My eyes widened with shock as I saw the pair of eyes looking at me from a distance.

My whole body shivered and I was unable to move. The place which made me covered in sweat before some time suddenly felt so cold.

Those eyes. The eyes which were once my favourite to look at, those eyes which once looked at me with so much love now sparkled with fire inside it. Those eyes which held only love for me once were now looking at me with nothing but hate.

"SHYLA!" I felt a hard smack on my hand when I saw Ave beside me looking at me like she would kill me anytime.

"What is wrong with you? I have been calling you for like 5 times!" She said in a loud voice.

My eyes again looked at the same place but those eyes went missing. I can see many people standing there except for the one who was standing there a few moments ago.

A drop of tear left my eyes as I can't forget those eyes. My whole body was shivering with some unknown fear.

I ran towards the entrance door to make myself believe the incident which happened a few minutes ago. Did I see him? Did I really see him? How is it possible? How the hell is all these possible? Is this real or I was just hallucinating again?

Many questions lingered inside my mind as I came running towards outside. My eyes fell on the people who were leaving the club and some who were entering into the club. But my eyes searched for only one person. The person who can never be here. The person who can never come here.

My body stopped supporting me as I sat in the nearest bench which was there near the entrance door.

Linda and Ave came running towards outside. Their eyes filled with concern, being completely worried about me.

"Shyla what happened?" Linda came near me and knelt down in the ground to look at my eyes which were down as the tears were already making their way out.

"Oh my god Shyla! Why are you shivering?" Ave asked while holding my hands.

"How is this possible?" I said in a low voice keeping my eyes down which was enough for them to hear.

"What are you talking about Shyla?" Linda asked with her serious tone.

"He was here guys" my voice broke.

"Whom are you talking about Shyla? Say it clearly!" Ave said getting in the same position as Linda.

I finally looked up at them.

"J"
