AARUDRN- Paradise Found

•|05

I was paralyzed with fear, the ghostly figure looming in the distance. My heart raced like a trapped animal, and my mind was a jumble of panic.

I thought of calling Rishabh bhai for help, but my phone was back in the car - I had foolishly left it behind.

"Koi hai, please bachao, yaha bhoot hai!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, but my voice was swallowed by the empty streets.

(Is anyone there, please save me, there's a ghost here)

The ghostly figure let out a menacing laugh, its voice sending chills down my spine.

"There's no escape, little girl," it taunted, its tone straight out of a horror movie.

I pleaded with him, "Please, leave me. What do you want? Tell me, I'll give you anything, just let me go." But he just laughed maniacally, his voice dripping with sadistic pleasure.

He sneered, "What could you possibly have that I'd want?" His eyes seemed to bore into my soul.

I frantically searched my pockets, desperate to find something to offer the ghost.

"Wait, let me check," I muttered, my hands shaking. Suddenly, I heard a faint crackling sound from my jacket pocket. I pulled out a Melody chocolate candy and extended it towards him, hoping it would appease him.

"For now, I have only this, please adjust with this, I hope you like it."

The ghostly figure looked at me, then at the candy, and his expression changed from menacing to amused.

"Pagal, tujhe kya me bacha dikhta hu?" he asked, his voice no longer eerie but familiar. My eyes widened as I realized who it was - Krish, my friend! (KRISHIV AURORA)

(You think I'm a kid)

My expression changed from fear to shock, and I ran towards him, relieved.

"Krishhhh!" I exclaimed, my voice loud with excitement. Krish's eyes widened in embarrassment as he realized his mistake, and he quickly covered his face with his hand.

Krish burst out laughing, removing his ghost mask as he ran. I chased after him, determined to get my revenge.

"Sorry, I'm just kidding!" he yelled.

I picked up my shoe from the ground, ready to strike. "Tujhe to aaj me chodungi nhi, tu ruk!" I shouted, my voice firm.

(I won't let you go today, stop right there!)

Krish continued to run around the car, dodging my attempts to catch him.

"Aaru, please I'm sorry!" he pleaded, his voice laced with laughter. He rolled around the car, bending down and up, trying to avoid my grasp.

I chased him, my shoe at the ready. "Gadha khai ka, aise koi darata hai?" I exclaimed, my tone a mix of annoyance and amusement."

(Are you crazy)

Krish and I have been friends since high school. He was more than just my best friend - he was my bestestestest friend!

Back then, Krish struggled to connect with others, but everything changed when he started creating reels on Instagram. They went viral, and soon he became a social media sensation, amassing a huge following and collaborating with popular girls on 30+ music videos.

As for me, I had always been cautious around men due to trust issues, but Krish was different. His humor and chaotic energy won me over from our very first meeting, and I never felt uncomfortable around him. Our friendship was so strong that people started calling us 'Kriti' - a combination of our names that became our special hashtag.
