"Don't make friends who are comfortable to be with. Make friends who will force you to lever yourself up."

Morning always comes with a new hope and light. After sleeping for 8hrs people woke up with dreams in their eyes to fight with this world, to find a way to fulfill their dreams. 

But what about them who wake up with a nightmare? A nightmare which force them to think they should not sleep ever or they are deprived of it due to fear.

A girl was sleeping in her room. The other beds were vacant, window which was just above her bed were open, fresh air was passing through it making the white curtains to dance with its beats.

Two men entered her room using the same window, perks of having a room on ground floor. They straight moved towards her steel wardrobe and its sound broke her sleep.

She opened her eyes and saw them keeping something in her wardrobe and when they tried to go out she immediately chased them. She cried for help but no one was there. As if everyone was in deep sleep or left her alone to deal with it.

She ran behind them and finally got hold of one's collar. She became happy that finally she will know who intrude her room at this hour. But before she could see his face, the other one pulled him and she stumbled on something and fall on the ground.

But there is no water then why does she feel her hands to be wet?

She some how pulled herself out and saw her hands are filled with blood. But whose? Does someone needs help?

She started finding the source of it and the sight left her aghast. Someone's legs were chopped which was hanging up and somehow the knot got lossened and it fell in front of her eyes.

She screamed....she screamed her lungs out but no one came to help her.

She kept on screaming when Neeksha hold her and said

"Kya hua Naina? Tu Chillayi kyun? Ro mat jaan. See main hun yahin pe tere samne. Kya hua hain bol?"

Naina who was shivering and crying remembering everything which felt so real to her, not a dream atleast said

"Woh ro..om.. me.. room.. mein koi tha, main ne dekha  woh log wahan pe ,phir woh khun hath mein aur woh samne, woh mujhe kuch samjh nahi aaya, main woh, mere hath mein kata hua pair tha kisi ka."

Neeksha who could not decipher a single word what Naina said, gave her a glass of water to calm her nerves so that she could tell her properly.

Naina who was shaken followed Neeksha's word and drank the water in a gulp and started telling her dreams which felt so real to her...Naina after wrapping up her dream....she said

"Yaar , aise kaise shant ho jaau, it...it was so horrible trust me ...i mean mujhe nightmares aate hain.. bachpan se aate hain.

kuch yaad reh jaate the, kuch bhul jaati thi, par yeh...yeh kuch aur hain....it felt so damn real..yahi ..same, yahi room tha, i swear curtains bhi white colour ke hi the and .....woh corridor college ka hi tha... trust me... neekshu...tu samjh rahi hain na, main kya samjhane ki koshish kar rahi hun."

Neeksha who got lost listening every little details of Naina's dream thought

"Yeh sab itna jaana pehchana sa kyun hain? Aisa kyun lag raha hain, jaise ki pehle bhi yeh sab sun chuke hain, yeh khauf, yeh daar pehle bhi jee chuke hain? Aisa kyun laga jaise koi sapna nahi tha, yeh koi haqeeqat si thi ,jaise koi apna phas chuka tha isme?

 Kya koi baat hain jo main nahi janti? Mera dil itna ghabra kyun raha hain. Hey Maa durga! Sahajjo koro. Jodi kichu lukono kotha amar janar thake janie dao ( help me maa durga. If there is anything hidden and i need to know please let me know)"

But Naina who was much better than before, searched for Pooja  and when saw her bed vacant asked Neeksha eventually bringing her out from her reverie

"I am fine tu jyada soch mat, sirf sapna tha kaunsa humari life ka hissa tha.  Chod aur yeh bol, yeh Pooja kahan hain? Kahin dikh nahi rahi subah se? Kal jo hum jhele hain raat bhar, uska bhi to wahi haal tha, toh is haal mein kahan nikal gayi yeh ladki?"

Neeksha immediately composed herself and said

"Pata nahi yaar kahan chali gayi hain yeh subah - subah? Jab main last jagi hui thi tab tak to yahin thi, uske baad badi mushkil se jake meri aankh lagi aur uth ke dekha maharani gayab hain. 

Ab agar woh phir se class mein late hui to main toh proxy nahi lagane wali uski. Kal ki daant aur saari harkato se nikali nahi abhi tak. Chal tu fatafat ready ho jaa. 8 baj chuka hain. We need to run now."

Naina immediately ran to get ready for the day and grabbing a sandwich and tablet left on the table for both of their names written on a chit they left for their classes.

Pooja , whom Naina and Neeksha were continuously calling, was sleeping peacefully keeping her head on last bench of her classroom. Thinking about her when Naina and Neeksha entered the classroom they saw their sleeping beauty and Neeksha said

"Yeh dekh to Naina isko tu, ise hum pata nahi kab se call kiye jaa rahe hain, dhunde jaa rahe hain aur ise dekho humari sleeping beauty ko, hum dono ki neendein uda ke yeh khud ghode bech ke chain se bag pe sir rakh ke so rahi hain. Ki hobe ei meyetar(kya hoga is ladki ka)?

Supporting her Naina said

"Kasam se neekshu hadh hi ho gayi hain ab to, aaj to yeh gayi mere hath se, kal raat jo isne stunt pull ki woh kya kum tha jo ab yaha aake padi hui hain wo bhi aise....fikar ke mare jaan hi chali jati aur ise dekho befikar hoke soyi padi hain ...chal aaja iski to."

They went towards her and hit her head slightly with their hand so that she wake up from her beauty sleep. But she is KUMBHKARAN, how can she wake up so easily. Seeing no other option Naina took Neeksha's phone from her hand and googled for some horror tune.

 After 2 3min finding the perfect tune for her she downloaded it and played in front of her ear, finally getting succesful in waking her up...

"Bhediya ayaa, bhediya, niks dekh - dekh maine kahan tha na, Naina insan nahi bhediya hain, dekh Naina bhediya ban gayi."

Seeing her reaction Naina and neeksha broke into fits of laughter and this made Pooja  more annoyed. Seeing her annoyed face and fluffy cheeks Naina poked her and said

"Hahahahaha dekh le neekshu, bas yahin bana baki reh gya tha mere liye...a wolf....seriously pooja,  kash sach mein main wolf hoti...i can bet tu pehli target hoti meri,chal moti shift ho beech mein aa hum dono ke, neekshu tu left side jaa main yahan hun, beech mein bitha meri pyaari target ko, pata chale class mein mam isi ka shikar kar le meri jarurat hi naa pade kuch karne ki. "

With this both sat on two sides of Pooja, but suddenly she remembered something and asked her both still giggling friends

"HA HA HA. Ho gaya tum dono ka? ouchhhh mera pet ....now agar aap dono ka hi hi khi khi ho gaya hain, toh batane ka kasht karogi mujhko ki dawa le li na tum dono ne jo table pe rakhi thi for you guyz with breakfast,bolo naa dawai li ya nahi?"

Neeksha who was horrified with last nights incident said

"Haan kha li, Nahi khana tha kya?"

Pooja  said sarcastically

"Ab yeh to apne pet se puch lo tum dono, main kya janu? Khana tha ya nahi."

Naina who was remembering every deed she did in her life said

"Ya right princess why not?Aap jo jo kahengi , wahin to karenge na hum sab your highness, nahi? Whatever le li hain dawa mujhe yaad bhi nahi karna hain jo hua hain. Aahhh! Mumaaa...neekshu pani de"

Pooja  satisfied with their answers said

"Good girls. Baki uparwala jane ab tum dono aur tum dono ka haal bhagwan bharose."

And she again slept leaving Naina and Neeksha horrified.They both shouted together..

"kyaaaaaaaaaaaaa?"

But they could not continue with it as teacher entered the class and they continued with their class, while Neeksha kept on drinking water so that she dont sleep in between, Naina stretching her eyes to the extreme level so that tiredness don't overpower her and Pooja  kept on sleeping but was saved from teachers rant as time to time Naina and Neeksha kept on hiting her head to wake her up.

Lawn Area, Hindu College

Sameera with Rajveer, Alekh and Harshad trying to study and make the three BANDARS of her life to atleast read a line so that they can complete the assignment on time. 

First years life was so easy, there was no assignment or pressure on the 1st month but second year changed their view as the teachers started giving assignments on the very first day.

So, sameera decided to use their free time in studying. But how come Alekh, Harshad and Rajveer can study without irritating Sameera . 

She saw their reactions where Harshad  was busy in eating and loudly reading out lines Sameera  marked for him and Alekh who was just sitting beside Harshad and opposite Sameera , was yawning and playing with grasses but still his eyes were on his book.

"Khane ke siwa kuch aur bhi dikhta hain tujhe Harshu ? Jab dekho tab tera muh chalta hi rehta hain, band kab hota hain?Jo ladka nind mein bhi samoso ka jaap kar sakta hain ,padhai ke time pe toh chod hi do umeed , ki yeh kuch aur karega."

But Harshad being Harshad said immediately

"Main khana chodta hun, Beshak chodta hun, sameera .Bas tab jab aage, kya khaau yeh sochna hota hain?

Jab itna time yeh karne mein diya aur Baki time agar nahi khaya toh khane ko dard hoga naa,bol? Jaise tu humesha is book se chipki rehti hain,waise hi main apne samose se chipka rehta hun."

She giving an irritated look to Harshad shifted her gaze to Rajveer  as he was still no focusing on his work and said

"Mil gayi?"

Rajveer who came back to his senses when Alekh nudged him said

"Kuch kaha tune Sam?"

She again repeated her words and said

"Haan, maine pucha ki mili ya nahi?"

Rajveer became more confused and said

"Kaun mili? Kisko mili? Kya mili? Kya bole jaa rahi hain , tu Sam? Padhne de"

Sameera  immediately said in the same tone

"Wahi, Jisko tu kitabon ke panno mein pichle 45 minutes se dhund raha hain."

Rajveer became cautious with Sameera's direct question. His brain calculated if she can read his expression that means others too observed him. He immediately checked his demeanour and said

"Main kisiko bhi nahi dhund raha hun, Sam. Jitna dhyaan tu mujhpe de rahi hain na, utna dhyan, Alekh pe de degi naa, toh bhala ho jayega uska bhi."

Sameera  confidently said

"Ispe kya nazar rakhu main? Yeh mujhe chod ke maximum ya toh khane ke saath busy hoga ya phir gaane bigadne me. Toh isko chod aur yeh bata ki...."

But she couldnot complete it as Alekh said in between

"Aee par "Ghunghat me chipi chudail', mera matlab Sam tujhe kaise pata ki woh book ke panno mein kisi ladki ko hi dhund raha hain."

Sameera  immediately chided him and said

"Bakwas mat kar Alekh. Woh ladki ko nahi toh kya kisi ladke ko dekhega? Maanti hu 377 legal hain, par humara Rajveer bilkul straight hain. Toh apni yeh bakwas band kar aur padh le. 

Lo bolo yeh college wale bhi naa...meri madhuri ki kasam padhai ke dushman hi hain. Baj gayi ghanti, chalo lunch kar lete hain, shaam ko dekhti hu tum teen ko."

They started dusting their dresses after taking their books and copies getting ready to move towards canteen when they noticed Naina, Pooja , Neeksha also moving better to say almost crawling towards canteen...

-----------------------#----------------------------

Andhere kono ki chilman me dafan kuch awaz hain

Har kisi ki aahat mein, kyun chupa uske aane ka aagaz hain

Tadapan bhi hain aur uljhan bhi

yahan ki har ek daro-deewar mein

Samaye huye hain khud mein anginat

na jane kitne sawal bhi hain

Cheekhon mein kisi ki lipat ke, sisakta kisi ka ehsaas hain

Aaj fir se uske ane ka jo hua ek aagaz hain...
