Next day, In the morning , Alina and I were in the philosophy class discussing about yesterday night. I told her everything that happened yesterday.

" whoa, whoa, You made out with Anirudh in Halmens hall? "

" kind of "

" well, was it good? " She asked.

I thought all of the events that happened yesterday. Why wasn't my father by that tree, like I had seen during the seance? And what had happened between Anirudh and his old friends? , why wouldn't he kiss me? It was confusing, frightening and unexplainable and surprising and strangely awesome. It didn't matter anymore if i liked it or not. I felt something.. Something too delicate and ephemeral for word's.

" It was unreal " I replied.

" so, you thought you were going to see your parents but instead you found Anirudh and Nikhil and saloni? " Alina asked.

I nodded. " I don't know why my dad wasn't there ".

" Maybe you got the wrong location or maybe it wasn't your dad that you saw. "

" it was definitely him. I mean, who else it could be? "

" I don't know "

"Now tell me about your night " I said.

" you know, I summoned Rahul but there are some complications"

" what do you mean ?

"Well.. I don't think I did it right, exactly. First I was thinking of him then I was thinking of him and chetna"

"Wait.. Who is chetna now? " I asked in confusion.

" Oh sorry my mistakes. The main thing I didn't tell you. Chetna was Rahul's girlfriend and Anirudh's close friend too. After Rahul died, chetna transferred somewhere else and then Anirudh left that group so practically chetna was also the part of the group. "

" what? She transferred somewhere else then why did you summoned a living person? "

" The last thing Rahul remembered doing was kissing chetna. After that, everything was blurry " Alina said.

" Since you summoned both of them in seance, you summoned chetna too"

" which means she's dead. " Alina added

" shhh" I cautioned, glancing that no one heard.

" which might mean she's dead " I corrected.

" Maybe when the seance didn't exactly work for me so I am not sure if it worked for you either " I said.

Barun joined us and we told him everything about the seance.

" But the shocking part is how she died " Alina said and added " She was buried alive " We both were shocked but Barun didn't seem as shocked as we were.

" Who did it? " He asked, bitting his nails.

" She didn't know. She had some sort of bag over her head when they did it " Alina explained.

"I wonder if it happened at school or somewhere else " Alina added

" Did Rahul say how He died? " Barun asked.

" No. Everytime I asked, he kept showing me the same scene of him kissing chetna. It was romantic. That's how I started thinking about chetna. Then suddenly heard her voice in my ear"

" If she died, why would the school lie and say that she transferred? I countered.

" Maybe they didn't know. Maybe she died after she transferred. "
