A Demon Friend Inside Me

CHAPTER 28: READ THE MIND.

Raj's Pov

Can you read someone's mind?

Ya, sure. 

Then do some work for me. Read Anshika's mind and tell me what she thinks about me.

Do you really want to do that? Maybe it will hurt you.

Do whatever I say.

As per your wish, I don't care. Give me 2 minutes. (Then he vanished.)

I am waiting for you; come back soon.

He came back.

Tell me what she thinks about me.

Raj, Are you really wanting to know that?

Just shut your mouth and tell me.

Raj, don't you think you are too frank with me?

And it costs you a lot.

Aree, don't be angry. Okay, I will ask you gently. Can you please give me information about what she thinks about me?

It sounds better.

So, listen. She just sees you as a friend and has no feelings for you. She is a very immature girl, and she is tough from the inside. She has a crush on your friend Pankaj and wants him.

She is just using you, so you will introduce her to Pankaj, and then she will propose to him and make him her boyfriend. 

Are you kidding, right? Bro, this is a joke. Tell me the truth.

This is the truth, Raj. And why are you overreacting? You are handsome and smart; you will get anyone. She is not your type. She is just a bi*ch.

I would kill you if you talked about her like this. You don't know anything. You're just a mess. I won't believe you. I know her very well. She is not a cheater or a two-face person.

I warned you before, but you didn't listen to me. So now, face the truth.

You're a liar. I won't believe in you. No, no.

This is not possible. THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE. (I shout at him.)

Don't shout at me. I'm not your slave. Do whatever you think is right. I'll do your work.

And then he left.

I sat down on the floor, and my whole world was destroyed again. This just shocked my soul, and I couldn't understand anything. My mind just blanked out. The darkness was coming in through my eyes, and a tear came out of my eye.

There is only one thought in my mind now: just finish everything. I stood up and went into the kitchen. 

There is one hope for living, and that is Anshika, and that hope died today, so what will I do alive? I have no motive to live. I should kill myself.

My mind just blanked, and my heartbeat went up. I picked up a knife and tried to cut my wrist veins. 

But when I tried, my hand just froze, and I tried to hit my vessels, but I couldn't move.

I looked around, and the demon had stopped me.

Leave me alone; you can't understand anything. I don't want to live. JUST LEAVE ME ALONE. (I again shout at him.)

I can feel your pain, but suicide isn't a choice.

I want to die. The tears came out, and I just lost all hope. I sat on the floor, and the knife fell from my hand.

I know this feeling, but you have to be strong.

You're not a kid. Grow up, Raj. She is just a girl.

You will find it more and more deserving than her.

You don't know what she meant to me.

Now stop crying. Come with me. 

I don't want to go anywhere.

(I talked to him in tears and coughing at the same time.)

Come on, you're a brave man. You can handle this. Come, I will show you something.

I cried and didn't pay attention to him.

He snapped his fingers, and we were in the sky.

Where are we going?

Just stop crying and see them there in the blue building. Look, there is a couple; they have a love marriage against their parents. And now, see them—they are getting divorced after a year.

And see into the other building, a couple that lives happily. You know the reality: the husband and wife loved any other person, but their destiny already decided them for each other. And now see how happy they are. It doesn't matter who we loved; what matters is who loved us and what destiny decided. So stop crying over a girl. You know how brave our ancestors were. If they see you, they will definitely be ashamed of you.

Now, I'm sending you back to your house, and I want you to think about it and start your life again with another motivation. You have to fulfil your mother's dream. Did you forget that? You want a motive to live. Raj, you already have. Now, try to cool your mind and think about it.

I'm just listening to him, but I didn't understand anything. Maybe I was still in shock.

He sends me back to my house, and I just sit on the floor doing nothing. Just sitting on the floor, and still the words of him are roaming around in my head.

Slowly, slowly, my mind got things, and I started to accept that she doesn't love me and that I was not her choice.

I stood up, wiped my tears, went into the bathroom, washed my face, opened the laptop, and started to do work.

I want to distract my mind, but the words are still roaming.

I took some deep breaths and tried to calm my mind.

I just need sleep. I laid down on the bed, and the panic attack started to hit me, but I controlled it and tried to sleep. My chest started to hurt, and everything is getting worse.

I took deep breaths, played the music, and tried to sleep. I closed my eyes, and some visuals started to show in my eyes. I saw Anshika and Pankaj getting together, and I'm just watching them.

But I controlled my mind, calmed it, and went to sleep.

I tried to think about other things, and it's helped me, but I can't sleep.

I woke up and punched the wall again and again, and then I started to hit my head on the wall, and some blood started to come from my hand and head, and I felt dizzy and fell on the floor.
