 The Zhai - episode 2

He was panting. He had been running for a long time. She was chasing him purposefully to this place. He knew he shouldn’t be coming here.
He looked around and found a long deserted corridor with many doors. The place was dark but the walls seemed to give away a strange, greenish glow and he new that he can’t say whether it was night until he left the place.
He knew that the corridor at the floor below was an exact replica of this one here. He even knew which room he’ll be forced to go in and that his death awaited him there.
He could here the anklets moving. He cursed King Veerabaagu as he ran towards the Dancer’s room. He didn’t remember climbing down the stairs but suddenly he was in front of The Room. He went in.
It was as it was when he and his friends had come with J, except that the box was on the floor, beside the bid black hole which was dug to take it out, and the lid was open. But unlike then, today it was empty.

Then he heard somebody breathing. Actually it was like; the room itself had come alive.

‘So you’ve come back Arjun’, said the woman. Everything was eerily silent. The light was greenish and he felt as if he was underwater. It sort of closed in on him that he couldn’t see anything beyond the green colour. He could hear the anklets of the lady. Probably she has started dancing. Would she destroy this place?

‘It was not me, it was J’, was all that he thought.

He found that he couldn’t even open his mouth.

‘It was J’s idea, please!’

He wanted to scream.
[Arjun?]

‘My girlfriend is here. I need to go with her. Please, leave me’
[Arjun, wake up!]

He could feel the lady trying to strangle him.

‘You took it away’

‘Please! I’ll return them all.’

[Arjun! Wake up! What is it?]

‘You took the Zhai away’

‘Priya! Take me away Priya. Save me please.’

[Arjun, wake up please! You scare me. Do something Mr. Sharma]

‘You took MY Zhai away’

There was a flash of light and a bang. He screamed.
Everything was dark again. And another flash of light
.....


He lay panting on the bed and was sweating profusely. Priya and Arya were looking at him, anxious.

‘Are you okay Arjun?’ Arya asked.

‘I guess I am’, he replied. ‘Was it just a dream?’

‘What dream?’ asked Priya. ‘Don’t tell me it’s the same one you’ve been having since you came back from Thiruvakkarai’.

‘You’ve been having dreams?’ Arya chuckled. ‘Or, shall we call it nightmare?

‘Shut up’

‘We’re meeting this evening at the Marina’, said Arya. ‘I’ll let J know before that’.

‘J?’ said Priya, irritated. ‘It’s all because of her and you still trust her?’

‘Excuse me, Ms. Priya Nair. It was not J’s fault that your boyfriend’s having nightmares….’

‘Still supporting her, when she’s the reason your wife left you?’

‘Who said my wife left me? She’s visiting her parent-‘

‘Stop it now, both of you’, Shouted Arjun.

Both of them were furious. ‘Please?’ Arjun added.

He then asked Arya,’ But why the Marina?’

At this Priya left the place with a ‘go to hell’.

And both their mobiles beeped.
