Chapter 2
The next morning I got up quite early, it was nice and cold outside with a bit of fog in the atmosphere, I looked through the window I could see the mountain peaks covered with snow it was just picture perfect and which reminds me of to take a nice picture of the beautiful scene, I went to take my camera from my bag as I reached near the table to take the camera from the bag , somebody ring the door bell. I looked through the hole to see who it was.
“Room service”, a middle aged woman was standing with a trolley. I opened the door. She wore a long skirt and a blouse with silver rimmed spectacles and the thing on her face which was very prominent I felt was her long nose. I know that’s quite wired of me to think and notice such things but old habits die hard.
“Good morning dear”, she said and came in and gave me some towels.
“Good morning”, I replied to her taking those towels from her.
“These towels for you people, and enjoy your trip people have fun….” that lady said to me leaving our room, and she shut the door.
Well that was quite creepy I thought because the way that lady said have fun was much wired, it felt she was scaring somebody or me!
“Hey who was there? Any teacher came to call? I guess we got very late for the trip today.” Ishrath got up from the bed and said it while rubbing her eyes.
“Hey…….wowowowo…..hold on you just woke up and started asking question. C’mon chill.” I said trying to tease Ishrath.
“Now, I must say that you started in the morning itself you started your job to joke all around!” Ishrath replied with irritation.
“Ok! Ok! Fine room service to give us the “new towels”.” I said while taking my clothes from my bag to get ready.
While Maham and Fariha were still asleep, I think I should wake them up I thought. Another funny idea came to my mind, why not I ring something near their ear, I know that’s too bad of me I should not scare them this way, but what to do we need to have some fun. I said the same thing to Ishrath; even she got excited to do so. We took Maham’s mobile phone and Ishrath held it near their ears and I rang the phone.
“Hey!! Wha what happened? Who’s there?” Maham shouted with the blanket on her face.
Fariha’s condition was something else itself. She simply screamed very loud and her voice already is very squeaky so you can understand that for few minutes we were deaf and our fingers automatically went in to our ears to block that scream from getting into our ears and tearing our ear drums. And Maham also got scared with Fariha’s squeaky scream.
“Hey Fari are you gone mad or what!? Have you left your brain at your home?” Maham scolded Fariha.
Fariha can only listen to Maham’s scolding or say shouting otherwise if we shout at her she will shout triple the time we had done so or stop talking to us. Actually Fariha’s quite close Maham rather than all of us, but we three were close to each other.
“Hey! What’s that you people doing? I got very scared” Fariha was puzzled while asking us the question.
“You know we were trying to wake you people, because it’s getting late for the trip” I added with an innocent expression.
