Chapter XXIX
Misha was super excited about her plan but still she check whether both t and laksh will reach the spot she chose for them. She had chosen caf de plaza for her latest prank which she was going to play on her two bakraas'..
Laksh went to the locker room after the classes and saw the chit and crumbled it into a ball and threw it away which hit Kabir. Kabir opened and saw the chit'.
Kabir: dude'. Tera koi admirer tujhse milna chahta hai' tu jayega nah'
Laksh: no'. I know this is some stupid bimbo'. Let her alone spend her evening'. I am not interested in bimbos'. I like feisty girls'. Not china dolls with high maintenance'.
Kabir: oh' toh tumhe misha ko contact karna chahiye'. Perfect for you'. Tumhare dimaag thikhane lagadegi'.
Laksh thought: uska toh naam bhi mat lo'. Ladki hai yaa patakha'. Mere dimaag par parasite ki tarah chadh gayi hai'
Laksh: no'. better I would go with this one only'. Akhir dekhein toh sahi kon hai'
Misha was also standing nearby and listening her plan going to its right direction' she was sure that t would surely come as she had a chronic disease of picking new handsome man every now and then and she won't leave this chance at all'.
Caf de plaza, 7pm
Misha had already reached the caf beforehand and had booked a beautiful table for the two of her bakraas' she soon went away and hid in the nearby bar mixing in the crowd but still keeping a close eye on her table'.
She saw laksh entering in the caf in his casual attire yet looking hot and sizzling as ever' she couldn't take her eyes off him and was literally floored by his cool self. For a moment, she forgot her motive of being present there and thought to go and tell him that she was the one who is his biggest admirer' but she came to earth as soon her sight hit the girl she hated the most'. Her entered Miss. Tanushree Ambolkar'
T hadn't expected laksh to be here at this time and that too waiting for him as he didn't seem to give her more importance than any other common girl. It was like she won a candy when she saw him waiting on the reserved table'.. she was star struck'.
On the other hand, laksh thought that he was surely going to get suffocated for this night or to be sure, get died by t's over girly love' misha was enjoying the unusual 36 different expressions on laksh's face' she was surely enjoying this'
T came and hugged laksh'. Both of them sat and t started her nonsense making laksh feel like killing her' food was ordered and served while t kept boring laksh with her oh- so-boring-I-am-diva talks'.
T: I didn't know that I had so many admirers L, I feel so lucky you know'.
Laksh: L' What is this?
T: yeah' l sounds so sweet'. Just like T sounds to fashionable matching to my spirit'
Laksh: yeah'. As if it makes some change'.
Both of them were about to leave after having a close dance which seen that only misha and t enjoyed when t came near laksh and stamped her lipstick on laksh's cheek'
Misha enjoyed the situations before and was ready to leave but something caught her attraction and she felt like burning in rage' she didn't know why but she couldn't see t kissing laksh, it made her burn'. This is it'. She knew how to fix this'. Misha walked to them where laksh was standing with t looking shocked with t's sudden chain of action'.
Misha: excuse me T'. laksh, I thought that you would wait for me, I took so much risk in putting that chit in your locker and you spent your evening with this bimbo'
T: what' you called me bimbo'
Misha: yeah'. And what do you think? Laksh arranged all this'. Sorry, but It was I who arranged this date for you miss'
T stamped her foot in anger and went away leaving an angry misha and shocked laksh alone'.
Laksh: why did you do this? I mean you arranged a blind date for me that too with t'. she really sucks man'.
Misha: so what'. I had to take my revenge from both of you'. She is so bitchy and you'.
Laksh interrupted: what me'.? What did I do? I came here last night only and you want to take revenge from me'
Misha: yeah'. You have made me mad' I don't know why but I feel so edgy near you and I wanted to make you feel the same way'.
Laksh was very happy that that he wasn't the only one who was feeling different, misha also felt like the same way he did last night'. Was he falling in love with her?
Laksh: and you thought that arranging my date with t would do it for you' actually I felt more like boring than feeling like the way you felt'. You could have told me or confronted me'.
Misha: and you would have made fun of me'
Laksh: no'. I know and I'd like to tell that I find you a really special'. More like my types'. I would have helped you'.
Misha: okay'. I am sorry'. Now can we be friends? (misha stretched her arm)
Laksh shaking hands with her: friends'.
Misha: okay... its late I should leave'. Do you want to have a lift'?
Laksh: okay'. But I'll drive'
Misha: holla'. We are going by bike and I am going to ride it'. You will sit back as misha dobriyal doesn't sits on the passenger seat'
Laksh: okay madam' but please remember that I have a sister to look for and a long life to live so please drop me to the raichands in one piece'.
Misha: aye-aye captain'.
Laksh paid the bill and sat back on the bike while misha drove it off' she was constantly talking while laksh was more interested in her slender figure and thanking the slight breeze to make her hairs flow with the speed banging them with his face' her fragrance was so divine like some wine with a chilling effect'
Soon misha dropped laksh and went to her house after getting satisfied by the day'
Raichand mansion
Abhay was sitting with aleena waiting for laksh.
Aleena: bro' tum kahan they'.
Laksh: restaurant mein'.
Aleena: kiske saath?
Abhay: misha'.
Laksh: no'. she just dropped me to home'. Main Uss ulloo t ke saath tha'
Abhay: kyon?
Laksh: long story'. Main thak gayaa hoon' going to sleep'. Good night'
Abhay: good night'

Hecate
Hecate, in Greek mythology, goddess of darkness, and the daughter of the Titans Perses and Asteria. Hecate represented its darkness and its terrors. On moonless nights she was believed to roam the earth with a pack of ghostly, howling dogs. She was the goddess of sorcery and witchcraft and was especially worshiped by magicians and witches, who sacrificed black lambs and black dogs to her. As goddess of the crossroads, Hecate and her pack of dogs were believed to haunt these remote spots, which seemed evil and ghostly places to travelers.

Mount college, girls' hostel
Lia as usually chirping while piya was listeining songs and reading her favorite novel'. ROMEO & JULIET'
Suddenly something struck her mind'. She remembered that last night Lia didn't talk a lot about herself'.
P: liana'. I want to ask something'
L: go ahead' I am listening'
P: it's something strange'. I mean whenever I am near you' I feel something different' some sort of pull' it's so different' intense' not normal' or to say human' I mean it's not bad but feels warm and more human' you understand nah' what I am trying to say'
L: okay'so what do you want me to do?
P: I want you to tell me the reason I feel so different with you' I don't feel the same way with you'. I mean the way I feel with misha is lot different from the way I feel with you'you both are equal to me but there is something more with you' you don't remain normal all the times' sometimes it feels fishy' and last night you didn't tell me about your parents also' you asked a lot about me' like you are some kind of secret agent' keeping an eye on me'
L (tried to cover the coming trail of questions): I know' its abhay who wants me to see that you aren't in some kind of danger' I mean that incident with you in mussorie forest and then the photographs got burnt'. He doesn't wants you to get into some other trouble' so he asked me to be with you all the time and get some info about you' because he is also investigating about that person you burnt your mother's photos'.
P: so he could have asked me on his own' and this is not the real reason' you all are hiding something from me'. I know it'
L: okay' I will tell you what you want'.
P: really'
L: shoot'
P: okay tell me about your parents first' and I want truth' no more lies' I can handle everything' I am not a kid anymore'
L: okay'. do you know about Hecate?
P: Hecate'. Who? , are you taking about Greek goddess Hecate'.?
L: hmm'. Same'
P: so, what's with Hecate?
L: she is my (hesitates)'..
P: what is she yours'.?
L: mother'.
P chuckled: you must be kidding'. (Piya saw Lia serious)'. I mean you have to be kidding'. She is goddess'. Myth' how can she be your mother?
L: see' you feel so intense and attractive near me'. Not so normal' because I and laksh are not normal'. To be specific'. I am an ancient witch and laksh is a warlock'
P gasped: oh my god'. Is this real'. I mean pinch me' this stuff doesn't exist (piya's face showed every color from red to pale white in utter disbelief)'.
L: I knew that you won't believe'
P: no'. I mean you are saying that you are a witch and laksh a warlock'. How old are you'.?
L: 319 yrs old'. Laksh also as he is my twin brother'
P: and where does Hecate fits here?
L: see, the Greek gods and goddesses are not myths' they are real and exist' Hecate is the Greek goddess of witchcraft'all the witches and warlocks worship her' my father is a warlock'. Laxman' but being the last of his type and only one' he didn't have anyone with whom he could extend our type'. The head witches asked him to find a way to extend his coven'.
P interrupted: so' he married Hecate'
L: no stupid'he didn't marry mom so easily'
P: so how? Did Hecate have a swayamvar'?
L: it's not so funny'.aur waise bhi Greek goddesses kabhi rakhi ki tarah swayamvar nahi karti thi' it's like' all the witch and warlocks worship Hecate and take their powers from her and my father also used to worship her and when Hecate was very impressed by his worship' she came to visit him and asked him to have his only wish'.
P: so he asked her to marry him'. Wow' how romantic?
L: as if' then dad used his chance and asked mom to marry him and have children with him but mom put her own condition'
P exclaimed: what condition?
L: mom was a goddess and she couldn't lead a normal life with my dad so she said that she would marry him only if he would come with him to her palace in heaven after she gives birth to us'. Dad agreed and then they were married in presence of many witches and gods and goddesses' they fell in love so deeply after and mom gave birth to us soon'and took dad with her to her palace in heaven'.
P: why didn't she take both of you with her?
L: actually'. The heaven allows only pure bloods to reside there forever' I mean my mom was a pure blooded goddess' dad was a warlock but I and laksh are kind of hybrids'so she couldn't take us with her and left us in care of the other ancient witches'
P: hybrids' hmmm' you mean mixture of a goddess and witch'.. Interesting'
L: yeah'. We are not the only kind of hybrids'. There are many more and you would come to know about them soon' I love what I am and I am happy to be not normal' it's really good to be this way in one way but then' it's so frustrating to be this way forever' stuck in this age'from 319 years, liana hales' stuck here not moving forward'.
P: it's the way you see yourself'. I mean if you take it as a boon then you would like your existence but if you think it as a curse then you would only be sad so chill and be happy with what you got and what you are' you are really special'. My most special witch'.
L: thanks piya' you are so gracious' I mean no human has the capacity to take these things so seriously' all they think that we are either harmful or evil' but I like your spirit a lot'
P: okay' I love you a lot' achcha tell me' have you seen your parents?
L: no' no'never'
P: ever'
L: no' mom took dad as soon as she gave birth to us' she couldn't spend any time with us' but whenever we both are in some kind of trouble or something then we are able to hear mom's voice' she guides us and dad always uses his special powers to shield us from all the evil things' I just love my parents yet I haven't seen them'
P (with tears filled in her chocolate brown eyes): sorry' I shouldn't have asked it' I know how it feels to not have your parents with us when we need them, when everyone has their own'. And we don't have'
L: piya' I know and I can feel that both of our mothers must be watching us from heaven'they must really be happy for us and somewhere in our hearts' they still reside'
P (tried to change the topic): hmmm'. so do you have any special powers?
L: I have the special power of curing everyone either supernatural or natural and memorizing many spells'laksh has special powers of checking the emotions shown on a long-term basis. Being ancient laksh is experienced and charged with extreme powers of controlling elements of nature while I have unmatched defensive and offensive skills and both of us make a total package being the last white sapphire witches'we can also channelize mom's extreme powers of witchery when we need but I haven't tried this ever'. Never needed'.
P: wow' this is really amazing'now I have a witch goddess in my backup so you can do my homework' wow'
L; no' no miss jaiswal'. And I am not witch goddess'. I am a demigoddess'and you are so lazy' do it yourself'and never ever spill this secret to anyone'
P: does abhay's family know this'.?
L: hmmm' and laksh knows this that I have told you so he would have already told abhay and others that you also know now'
P shocked and exclaimed: how did you tell laksh'? I mean you haven't used anything'
L: telepathy babes'
P: one more thing'
L: now what?
P: are Abhay and aleena also like both of you'? I mean they also act like you and I feel almost same with them too' they also don't seem to be normal'
L: because they aren't' they are not like me or laksh but different'. I mean they are not human but not witches too'
P; then who?
L; ask Abhay or aleena'. I won't tell anything without their permission'. It's not my part of truth' it would be bad to tell you anything without asking them'. But I want to tell one thing that abhay loves you a lot' he just don't want to pose any threat to your life so he hasn't told you anything' he fears that you would leave him or hate him when you will come to know about his real self'. Just don't let his fear become truth' if you really love him them I would ask you to find about him and then accept him the way he is'
P: I know' I am trying' and I also love him a lot' he must have trust in me'and tell the truth'.
L: okay now go to sleep or abhay will kill me for not letting you sleep' good night'
P: good night'
