Two updates in a row, author might be too happy right now😆😆....
Naira's POV
I was having breakfast and checking my social media accounts, it's been a while since I have done that.
" If you keep your phone down, you will be able to have your breakfast" Kartik sort of shouted from behind
" Well if you keep your eyes open, you will be able to see that I've eaten my breakfast" I snapped at him and left him dumbfounded.
I went to Laurel's room, she was doing her hair
" Hey!! Good morning" she said when she saw me
" Hello Miss to be bride" I said and sat at the edge of the bed
" I thought you would be in bed" she said putting on some eye liner
" My right hand is injured not my whole body and moreover last night someone gave me a nice speech about being yourself again" I said
She turned around and hugged me
" I'm so happy that you are try to being the old Naira again" Laurel said
" It's all because of you!" I said
" Wanna go shopping today?" Laurel asked
" Umm....." I hate shopping
" You hate shopping, me too, but because of the wedding, I've to go to the mall, it's time that I start looking for a perfect wedding dress" Laurel said as we descended the stairs
" Ya I know, your wedding is some weeks away only, I will love to help you" I said
" What help?" Rishi's voice came
" To choose my wedding dress" Laurel said
" Can I come please..." Rishi said showing his puppy eyes
" But you can't see it before the wedding, it's not good" I tried to explain
" My love sick brother" Rohan shouted from the other side of the table and we all chuckled
" Fine, I'll just make the guest list and invite them" Rishi said with a huff, my brother can be so childish sometimes.
" Naira I want to talk you...in private" James voice came
Everyone went rigid on the table, I got up and left with him
" I'm really sorry Naira, I didn't want to question you like this" James said
" It's fine, you are just worried about you know who" I said
" Can you stop referring Kartik as you know who" he said narrowing his eyes in a funny way
I started to laugh and he joined me and out of nowhere he hugged me.
" Do you know my full name?" James asked
" Why so suddenly?" I asked
" Just to tell you, so that no secrets remain between us, I'm James Martz" he said
" What?!" I was shocked
" Karan is the real brother, I'm the adopted one" he explained
I went numb for a second but then I regained myself again " That was a surprise" I said hitting him slightly on his shoulder with my left fist
" Ouch!! That hurts" he said rubbing the spot where I hit
" James you're such a....." He cut me off
" Sweetheart" James said, I was about to say weakling
" No no but a ...." He cut me off again
" Charmer" James said
I stomped my foot in frustration
" We can do this all day and I won't get tired at all" James said leaning on the wall
" What a skill" I said sarcastically
" Naira I used to have a family, my mom , dad and my lovely sister, but during some gang war they were killed" he said
Why is he telling me this?
" That's when Kartik's father adopted me, it was before Karan was born, Kartik and I were really close, that sometimes Karan used to get jealous or something" He said
" Why are you telling me this?" I asked again confused
" Because you made me remember my sister, you are like my sister and moreover I said no more secrets between us , now let me continue" he said
I just nodded and he continued
" Issac was Kartik's father right hand man's son, so it was obvious that he will be Kartik's right hand man, so we became a tight group. During high school we met William, he was an orphan and kind of got bullied and that's where we came to rescue and then the four of some became a famous group of friends" he said completing his story
" That's so much to process" I said
" Ya I know, after Kartik's parents were killed, he was in the college only, he was lost, we saw him go through traumatic experiences and what not, we helped him to gain his power back and to turn him to the Kartik we knew" He said
" So he became fine then?" I said jumping to the conclusion
" No he didn't turn to the Kartik we knew, but when he was with you, I saw the old Kartik we knew, everyone noticed it , that's why William was angry with you, because you did something that neither of us were able to do it" he said
Now it was my time to be dumbfounded.
" I know it's a lot to process, but please think about it once, whatever you people had was real, and if you try you can get eachother back" he said
That was surely a lot to process but before that I had one job to do
" Follow me" I simply said and started moving
" Where are we going?" James asked
" You said no secrets" I said and turned into darker hallway.
When I reached the end of the hallway, I punched in the code and the wall opened revealing an elevator, James looked confused all the time. When we reached downstairs and the elevator opened, we were met with coldness and darkness
" Switch on the lights" I ordered
The lights were switched on, which were mere bulbs hanging near every cell, it was a dungeon.
We went to the last cell and I grabbed James hand and signalled him to see in the cell, the lights of the cell were suddenly switched on revealing a person all bloody and sweaty tied on a chair.
" What!!" James shouted.

Don't get mad at me, I will try my best to write more scenes with the main leads involved, it's just that there were so many loose ends in this story that I have to cover up.
Stay safe and healthy!
Please read my book 'The Virtual World'
