Radio as a promotional tool
Exploratory study

She had listed few topics and Rajveer and Naina finalize one topic after almost an hour......

He tried so hard to flirt with her
But she is so cold and difficult that he forgot he is here to complete a dare of asking her for Christmas party.
And he actually seriously got involved in deciding the topic ....
Analysing all the possible topics.

And by the end they were deeply engrossed in listing out products which are advertise on radio.

She was busy jotting down the names of radio station they need to visit for this project.....

The librarian was in a hurry and saw that almost every student is gone...
There was absolute silence....

The librarian picked up her bag and came out and spotted a peon ....
And told him to lock the library....

Half an hour later

he saw his watch....it was evening already....

The library was almost empty and the sound of evening azaan were already heard.....

Rajveer - Naina
Aj ke liye bas karte Hain....
Baki Kam Kal Karenge....sham ho gayi hai....

He is amazed how she made him do work.......
Or else he is the one who make girls do his work.....

She saw the watch and noded a yes...

They stood up and started walking towards the door to find themselves completely aloof in the library...

They came towards the door and it was locked....

He pulled the door ....hard
While she kept staring .....

Naina - Kya hua
Librarian Kaha hai.....

Rajveer tried harder and saw here and there....
The library was absolutely empty.

Fear was evident on her face.
As she saw him struggling with door..

Rajveer - help....... koi hai....
He shouted....

Waiting for an answer.....

But there was no reply....

Rajveer - we are locked.....

He turned and saw her she was already on a verge of panic...
Files and books and her bag got dropped down ....

She came running towards the gate...
Banging loudly..... crying for help.... hysterically.....

"Help help.... Koi hai....
Darwaza kholo please darwaza kholo"

She was in tears already....
Her whole body trembling.....

"Naina ..... Naina relax"
He tried to calm her down as she was behaving over dramatic.

But she kept banging like a manica...
He took out his phone to call his friends but there was no signal

In the mean time she started getting choked....
Not able to breathe....

She sat on ground trying hard to breathe
He saw her and got worried

Rajveer - Naina Kya hua
He dashed down by her side.... tried to hold her shoulder....
To know what's wrong....

She was tongue tied....
Breathing abnormally sweating
profoundly......her hands were having tremors......

He got scared with her behavior....

"Naina Kya hua....
It's ok koi na koi a jayega..."

But she didn't seem to listen him...
He tried holding her but she got even more panicked with his touch ...
Pushing his hand away....
He distance himself.

Soon she started getting lack of oxygen and she started making disturbing noises of getting choked and tight.....

He was going blank .... Not able to understand how to help her....
Because to help someone first you need to know what their problem is...
And second the person should cooperate when you are trying to help.

He again went close to sooth this Disturbed pretty kitten who is looking so vulnerable....

She was curled towards a shelf .... Trying to breathe hard when he got an insight....

"Tum claustrophobic ho"??
He asked her .....
And in return she nodded .... With helpless eyes....
Her sad pretty eyes asking for help.
She need oxygen.....

He thought for some secs and then rubbing his finger on his face....

"Meri bat suno"
Saying this he touched her shoulder

To which she got even more scared and clutch tight towards the shelf....

"Fine I am not touching you...."

He said raising both his hands on air.

"Ab Meri bat suno......"
He said

But she was still burried in the shelf

"Naina Meri Baat suno
Or else I will touch you"

He threaten her succeeding in making her turn to him with peripheral vision.

"Aankhen band Karo....."
He said

She kept looking at him

Rajveer - Naina main jaisa bol raha Hun waisa Karo....
Apni ankhen band Karo...

She reluctantly closed her eyes.....

Still shivering and breathing abnormal
Her hands trembling badly against the shelf....

"Ab imagine Karo ke tum is band Library mein nahi ek khubsurat samandar kinare ho.....

Ek Aisi jagah jiski dur dur Tak koi Seema nahi hai.....

Jaha Tak nazar Jaye khula asmaan hai aur dur Tak phela samandar...."

She started visualising.....the sea and soon her heart beat started getting under control.....

In few secs he saw that she is able to breathe ..... Still slow but not abnormal....

The crease from her forehead gone.

He saw his trick working

Rajveer - gehri saan lo...
Breathe in....

He instructed

And she inhaled deep...

Rajveer- breath out

And she exhaled the air out...

And kept repeating.....

"Apne pairo per Pani ka thanda ehsas
Aur apne chehre pe bebaak hawao ko mehsus Karo.....

"Pairo tale gili ret mehsus ho rahi hai?"
He asked

And she noded a yes....

He smiled and took a sigh of relief
Her trembling went down and she was trying to breathe.... gulping down oxygen.....

"Bas ret ,Pani aur tum...."
He said his eyes now meditating on her face....

He was learning her face....
She is so beautiful and sad......

She was sitting with her eyes shut
And he sat gazing at her face.....

"Lehron ki awaz sunai de rahi hai"
He asked again and she again noded a yes....

She was feeling heavy and dizzy by now....
She felt tired and exhausted...

She went loose and was about to fall down but he caught her...
She was subconsciously aware that he is touching her....
That she is in contact with a man.

But for the first time there was no reflex action of withdrawal....
Instead for some reason she felt safe.

She lean to him holding him asking him to hold her....
Resting her head on his chest.... taking deep sigh......

He was surprised with her action....
But then he slowly wrapped his hands around her to comfort her....

Her head was aching badly
And she continued to imagine sea in front of her eyes ....
Holding his arms tight to secure herself......
It was actually calming down her nerves.....

Any kind of fear or phobia is just in your head.....

Soon she felt passing out in his arms..
As he kept Patting her head to relax her.....
And he felt her getting loose in his embrace.....

She passed out completely....
And he sat like that holding her in his arms.....
Wondering about her mental condition.....

What exactly is wrong with her....

To have any kind of phobia or fear is a sign of serious emotional trauma...
HE KNOW THIS VERY WELL.

After some time he made her lay down on ground keeping her head on her bag.....
And adjusting her shawl on her to cover her properly just the way she prefer.

He doesn't want her to freak out to see herself in his arms when she gets up.....

_______________

After three hours
Her eye lids heavy as she tried to open them....

She adjusted her pupils with the light and got up to see big shelf of books..all around her head.....
It took her few secs to recall why she is surrounded with books....

She sat upright immediately adjusting her shwal.... And looked around and saw him sleeping at a distance resting on floor keeping few books below his head.....

She brushed her fingers to set her hairs and remember having panic attack .......
And how he helped her....

She was still fearful but now under control....
The silent library was spooky....

And the light was not enough....
She saw here and there to find everything normal ...
Still she was not feeling good....

She saw him
He was sleeping

She was in a dilemma wether to wake him up or not...

She was scared to sit alone in this library and was not sure that if she can handle company of a man alone in a locked up room

She was still thinking what to do when there was a sudden noise of a book falling down and a scream escaped her mouth.....
Waking him up

He got up scared too and saw her sitting curled up in fear.

Rajveer - Naina
Kya hua ..... Tum thik ho.....

He asked concern for her....

Naina - she got up and came close to her for safety....
Sitting beside him....

"Wo waha"
She pointed her finger ...
And he saw in that direction

"kitab girne ki awaz ayi"
She said with timid voice....

He gulped down his saliva too looking at her with big eyes.

"Yar tum darao mat"
He said

"Maine suna"
She said requesting him to believe her

He saw towards the narrow dark passage between two book shelf...

"Jake Dekho"
She said .....

He got up and she got up too...

He scanned his eyes in dark corner to spot any spirit figure standing there...
His brain remembering all the horror movies...
Infact a playlist was running in his mind.

"Main akele nahi Jaunga tum bhi sath Chalo
Hum is situation mein na tumhari wajah se phase hain.."

He complained with fear on his face.

"Maine Kya Kiya"
She asked

"Pura 5 ghante mujhse kitna Kam karvaya tumne....
Library mein itni der kaun baith ta hai....
Main to adhe ghante see zyada Kabhi nahi rukta"

He said pissed off with the thought of getting killed by a sinister.

"Adha ghante......?
Lekin Maine to Kabhi apko library mein aj Tak nahi dekha"

She wondered

"Han wo main tab ata hun jab koi na ho"....

He gave instant reply....
Eyes fixed on dark corner.

She rolled her eyes ..... Trying to remember if she ever saw him.

Walking behind him slowly as they advance towards the noise....

And again there was a small cry of an animal....

They widened there eyes looking at Eachother and cling to Eachother holding hands...

She completely forgot how allergic she is with human touch...
But his hands were not uncomfortable anymore...

But she did not have time to think all this.

They kept walking to say hello to whatever is there....

She was walking behind him holding his hand and keeping one hand on his shoulder....

Peeping from abover his shoulder...

They came in the corner ....
To find that there was nothing ghostly there....

Rajveer - kuch bhi nahi hai ...
Khamkha mein Dara diya...

He got relaxed and she got relaxed too.

When suddenly

Aaaaaaa aaaaaaa AA

She screamed and

Aaaaaaa aaaaaaa AA

He screamed too.

Hugging Eachother tight out of fear..
They remained like that ....not moving an inch...

"Kya hua tum cheekhi Kyun"
He asked , his heart beat racing marathon....

"Waha neeche kuch Hil Raha hai"
She said still her eye shut tight resting on his arms...

"Yar tum kuch bhi mat bolo....
Kya Hil Raha hai"
He said white in fear...

"Mujhe Kya pata lekin kuch to hai"
She insisted...

"Achcha .... Leave me ... Let me see"
He said as she was cluthing him really tight....

"Nahi..."
He felt her head moving in a no against his chest...

"Naina dekhenge nahi to pata kaise chalega....
Jo bhi hai let's face it "

He said ....

Making her to leave him so that he can turn...

He turned and took out his mobile for light...
She was standing in opposite direction with her eyes close...

He lighted the area and searched where she was pointing and saw...
