SWANI POV: My friendship with Kiran is back to normal. It's nice to see that somewhere, even if he was not wrong but still he wanted to save our friendship.

If it was anyone else in Kiran's place, maybe he wouldn't have cared so much.After talking to him on my way back home I came planning to make a collaboration video with him.

Now he has gone to his home, I am also returning to mine.

Kolkata at night is completely different from the morning one.As if Bagbazar Ganges at night is a bit more mesmerizing.The surroundings are so quiet that the sound of an owl can be clearly heard from somewhere nearby.

But the night Bagbazar is as enchanting as it is dangerous.

I was walking, suddenly three or four boys saw me and stopped. I move on without paying much attention to them, but disaster strikes when I see them following me.

I started walking faster, they also started walking faster to keep pace with me.I was afraid in my mind then, how strange my surroundings seemed. Who are they? Why did they follow me?

They got very close to me, before I could go to attack them in fear, they said something that made me stop.

Boy1- Aap Zone Of Swani ho naa?!

I nodded with a confusion visible on my face.

Boy2- Hamlog aapke gameplay bohot dekhte hai..

Boy3- han..Can we get a selfie please?!

I was still confused.

Swani- huh?!.. selfie..!?han sure sure..

I tried to be normal and forced a smile when they took a selfie with me.

They took pictures and left after shaking hands with me.

Swani(to myself)- ye kaisa chutiyapa tha Bhai?!..
 
After a while I entered my house, my parents innate habit of falling asleep early in the evening,At this time who sleeps at eight o'clock or nine?

But that didn't happen today, I entered the house and saw my parents sleeping on the sofa while waiting for me.

Seeing them, the frustration that I had a while ago flew away and the mind became cheerful.

I went to them.

Swani- Mr. and Mrs. Singha Roy!..wake up..

My voice wakes them both up, they look at me.

Mummy- are tu aa gayi..*yawned*

Swani (smiling at them)- Haan..

Papa- Prachi(my mother) ..ise khana dedo fir..

Mummy- Haan..

Mom was about to get up but I stopped her.

Swani- aap dono jaake so jao..aur papa ko dawaiya khila do..mai khud khana khaa lungi!!..

Mummy- magar..

Swani- nothing agar magar mummy..aap jaoo..(to Papa)..aur aap bhi..

Mummy- Good night fir beta..

Papa- good night..

Swani- Good night mummy..Good night papa..

They both went to their room to hang out and I watched them go with a smile on my face.

Then I focused on my food, opened the hotpot and saw mom making my favorite soybean biryani. I picked up the container next to it and looked inside,it was paneer butter masala.

I scooped the food onto my plate, not taking much, because I know how much I can fit into my stomach.

After eating I was going upstairs to my room, but before that I felt something and went to the room right next to me, which was Atharva's room where Atharva and Nischay are now staying together.

I usually don't like going into that dirty monkey's room, but since there was a lot of weard noise coming from there, I had to go, to see what exactly that psycho scientist was doing at this time of night!

As the door was slightly open, I peeked a little and saw that the battle of Rama and Ravana was going on inside.

Nischay and Atharva are playing games on PS5.I know I'm NOOB at gaming, but there's no way I could be wrong that these two are playing "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II".

Nischay- Atharva ammo de...!!!mere khatam hogayee..jaldi!!

Atharva- yeloo..yelo..!ah shit mar Gaya... revive dedoooo

Nischay- Abe agar Mai aya to Mai bhi marunga...tu thora idhar aana...han..han idhar hi rahiyo..heal karta hu tereko...

Atharva- shukriya shukriya...rukoo ye ped ke peeche last hai...

Nischay- eh..yay..!!

"VICTORY!" They both screamed together in joy.

I then started clapping from behind.

They both turned back and were slightly surprised to see me.

Nischay- tum kab ayi?!

Swani- thori der pehle..

Nischay- sab okay haina?!

I nodded.

Atharva- kya okay?!

Swani- kyu bataye tujhe?!

Atharva (pouted)- bataaaa!!

Swani- Kuch nahi, bas tum dono ko jeet dekhke achha laga. Aur tum dono ab tak khel rahe ho?

Atharva- Haan, bas thoda relax kar rahe the. Tu bata, kaisa tha tera din?

Swani- Thik tha, raat ko raste me ek chota sa adventure bhi ho gaya.

Nischay- Adventure? Kya hua?

Swani- Kuch nahi, ek group ladke mujhe follow kar rahe the. Lekin wo toh fans nikle, selfie lena chahte the...dara dia saalo ne..

Atharva- Ohh, yeh toh acchi baat hai. Waise Kolkata mei Tera fanbase accha hai!!

Nischay- are mujhe bhi ek baar ek fan meet-up me kuch ajeeb sa ho gaya tha.

Swani- Kya hua tha?

Nischay- Ek ladka aaya tha, wo mujhse milne ke liye bohot excited tha. Maine socha wo bas selfie lena chahta hai, par jab wo aaya toh usne mujhse pucha, "Bhai, aapki kismat me ladki kaunsi hai?" Main toh seedha shock ho gaya tha uske sawaal se!

Atharva and i burst into laughter.

Atharva- Seriously? Kya bola tune usko?

Nischay- Maine kaha, "Bhai, meri kismat me abhi tak sirf gaming consoles hi hai!"

Swani- Haha, yeh toh funny tha!

Nischay- Haan yaar, kabhi kabhi fans ke sawaal bhi kuch unexpected ho jaate hain.

Swani- Chal, ab mai sone ja rahi hu. Tum dono bhi jaldi so jao.

Atharva- Theek hai, good night Swani.

Nischay- Good night, Swani.

Swani- Good night, Nischay. Good night, Atharva.

We exchanged smiles, and I headed to my room, glad to be home and surrounded by my family and friends.

To be continued.
