Beautiful Stranger

EPISODE 8:- THE STRUCK ONE

Hazel:- "so you read the note" a male voice said, I turned around and see who was it.. The writer of the note, it was Harry. "Harry.. ?" I questioned, because he looked so different, completely changed. No rimmed glasses, nor that 1940's hairstyle. Now his hair was gelled, wearing contact lenses. "thank you for coming, I am really glad to see you here." he said with a smile.
"well, okay.. But can I ask you the reason for sending that note and making me come all the way here." I asked,
"as I messaged you in the note, I am really looking forward to our friendship." he replied.
"but why suddenly all this note and things." I questioned,
"hmm, that's because you and I have many similarities, like, both are scholarship students with not a strong bag ground, both are good in studies, we are in same club so.. That's why.. " he answered.
" well, OK... That's why? " I replied looking at him to continue.
"Hazel I want to ask you a favor. I thought if I will talk to you in front of Saish then it will angry you both that's why I sent you that note."
"so what is the favor?" I asked,eyebrow raised.
"well.. Umm.. But please don't tell anyone about it" he started. that's when I heard another voice.
" Hazel..!" Ditsa shouted, standing aside the door of the room, Sweating, catching her breath.. She came towards me, "what happened? I saw rose outside and I asked her about you but she denied that she talked to you. So I was worried," she said while taking deep breadths.
"Harry..? You are the one who sent that?" she questioned, looking with that same expression as I looked..
"well.. Yes.." he answered, hesitating a little.
"but why?" she asked, arms crossed across her chest.
"no it's nothing.. I have to go home now, I'm getting late. I will talk to you later." he replied and left.

"What a weird guy" we both said at same time.
"but why did he called you here. " she asked.
I shrugged and replied "don't know, he was about to tell but then you came and he left. But why were you running and shouting my name?"
"aah, don't know I'm tired. We'll talk later, You drive today." she said, throwing the keys at me. I caught it with one hand.
"ooh nice catch. Let's go miss driver." she ordered.
"Yes mam. " I replied, and we left.

Saish:- I was eating food, when mom entered.
"having musical in your school?" she questioned.
"yeah a sort of," I replied without looking at her.
"so are you taking part?" she again asked.
"Nope I'm not" I replied casually.
"Saish, you have to live and behave like humans. It's very important for our existence. Don't you know that. You have to mix with them like sugar, living quietly. So take part in the musical. I'm contacting your head of the college, So do well." she said. Stirring the wine glass filled with blood slowly, in the circular motion.
"I'll decide what I have to do. Don't push me." I replied,
"I know that but it's necessary. And, to know the people here I'm going to throw a party, let's see how their mind works. And you are going to attend it, you'll be here. Understand. " she said.
"I can't stand to be with humans. The smell of their blood makes me lose my control. And If I'd lose control I also don't know what will happen, so let me be, if you wanna throw a party then enjoy but don't drag me in this useless shit, I'll think about it." I replied and left, going half crazy thinking about the fresh human blood, So to clear my mind I left for the run. The cool breeze, the beautiful moon, and the silent forest makes me feel fresh and under control. I was wandering around the forest when her memories flashed in my mind. Her beautiful smile, mesmerizing eyes, soft curled hair, perfect nose. My mind was filled with her images and my eyes were filling with tears, I let out a scream of vain and suffering, scratching the bark of tree with my nails, my fangs came out as I was screaming.
But then I sensed someone was there watching me, a human. Hiding behind the tree which was a little away from me. I one second I was in front of that person, ready to snap the neck, and it was Hazel. Gosh.. this girl always wander around here, should I kill her, no one would know what happened. She had not been able to seen my face because it's night, I remembered myself to control and looked at her with furious eyes, she was very scared stickied to the tree unable to move. "Run, before I murder you, you silly girl." I told her and she ran away, struggling on her feet. Then, I saw Ditsa coming running towards her so I went little far. "hey, hazel what happened? Why are you here like this." she questioned.
"I..I..I-don't know, you were on call and I was just j-jogging when I heard someone's scream. So I hide- that tree-there.. That man." she answered in a daze.
"ooh, it's OK, just a wild animal. don't worry let's go home. You should rest.. Uh. Let's go." she said helping her to stand up. "but.. That.. But.. Man.." she was trying to say.
"yes, yes. We'll talk about it at home. let's go back first, OK. Sorry I was busy on the call with my dad. really sorry." She replied helping her to walk but still she was still trying to look at the scratched bark. I can predict that she's gonna put me in danger. I came back home after they both left and laid in the bed to sleep.

Hazel:- "there was someone.." I said to Ditsa when we reached home, still in shock about what was it, I even don't know.
"change in pajamas and sleep. Don't you know tomorrow is our first rehearsal. And our vocal should be in her mind to perform, so just forget it." she said,
"yup I'll try." I replied and went to bathroom to change, for a second I thought it had happened before, just déjà vu. It's a little weird,I laid in the bed and with all the power left in my body, I put myself to sleep.
In morning we changed, had breakfast in hostel's cafeteria and we left for the college.
"how are you feeling now?" she asked.
"fine, don't worry much." I replied.
"it's rehearsals today. So gear up babe." she answered,
We were allowed to cut our classes for practice, So we left the last two classes and went on the music room and started practicing.
"1,2,3,4" Harry gave the beats and first I started singing.
"wait, I'll do the male vocals." Saish said loudly from behind, and we all stared at him.
"sorry baby it's done." Rose said, standing from the director's chair.
"yeah I know, but I am specially told by the college principal to join the vocals." he replied, what an arrogant jerk always uses his power.
"hey you, you can't. Don't you know me who I am." Taylor said, who's standing beside me.
"you.. don't know me! who I am." he replied, who's also standing next to me.
"well let's see how you both perform," Rose said. "with your same vocal partner" she said and I looked at her with big eyes trying to say no. "Hazel.." she finished and I looked at both of them who are already staring at me. As I looked at Taylor, aside me and then at Saish on the other side, feeling sandwiched between the two...
