****

naira had met the goenka family when she was six years old. she immediately clicked with the smallest child of the goenka family, shubham.

when she turned eleven, she started to like her best friend's older brother, kartik. he was just two years older than them.

naira's eighteenth birthday was coming up and things got more complicated when kartik bought his girlfriend over.

"you coming for dinner right? mumma said she missed you?" shubham asked her as they walked back to their home from school.

"not even a week and im being missed already." shubham shoved her.

"of course we love you naira." shubham said.

"yeah, i missed swarna aunty's cooking." she smiled and kicked a stone.

around six pm naira entered the goenka household. "naira, hi kiddo." swarna greeted her with a hug.

"hi aunty." she smiled.

"i would've loved to talk to you but i am being needed in the kitchen. i will talk to you later though." swarna smiled and left the hall.

"hi n. ready for the movies?" shubham asked.

"yes. we're doing in the living room?" he nodded.

they sat and played some random horror movies. they were disturbed by kartik entering the hall.

"yo shubh." he winked.

shubham rolled his eyes and ignored him. kartik had bought a couple of friends home.

shubham stood up and entered the kitchen, naira following him.

"mumma, please tell me you are going to tell him to get out with his friends." shubham whined.

"well kiddo, as he is now an adult, legally. im sorry i can't." swarna chuckled.

shubham stomped his foot. "let's go n." shubham took her hand and they went upstairs.

right now naira was hiding behind the pillow, scared of the clown they were watching on the tv.

shubham wanted to watch IT 2. and naira doesn't exactly have a healthy relation with clowns.

the music in the movie intensified as the door of their suddenly got open and they both screamed.

seeing them scream, kartik too started to scream. "what the fuck bhai?!" shubham shouted.

"you started shouting first!" kartik stammered.

"do you have my charger?" kartik asked.

"no! why on earth i would have your charger?" shubham rolled his eyes.

kartik glared. "fine, i'll search for it." kartik closed his door.

"sorry about him. can you give him the charger? i need to go to mumma." shubham handed her the charger.

"uh- is he in his room?" naira gulped.

"yeah, you can check." she nodded.

she stood up and knocked the door of kartik's room.

"here." she handed him the charger.

"thanks." she was about to go but stopped when kartik asked her something.

"quite scared you were there, weren't you?" he smirked.

"well damn, i am not ashamed about my unhealthy relation with clowns." naira answered back.
