"We are really sorry..." Meera said sadly shaking her head.
"It's okay" Geet giggled.
"Of course she's okay" Pinky giggled "after all, she met Ghost boy'"
"Ghost boy?" Geet asked nervously feeling herself blushing.
"Haan, ghost boy...the ghost boy, the one who disappeared in thin air'like this puff" Meera said arching her eyebrows dramatically.
Geet giggled and looked at her toes. She clutched her blanket and snuggled down.
"Feeling sleepy?" Pinky asked.
Geet shook her head. "Nah".
"Haan...ghost boy is in her dreams, she will only dream...hein nah" Meera giggled.
Geet blushed. Meera elbowed Pinky.
"How was he?" Meera asked.
"Huh?"
"Describe him, nah come on" urged Pinky tugging Geet's arm.
Geet blushed.
"He's strong...got this great chest, muscular and broad eyebrows..." Geet started while Pinky honked madly. Geet blushed.
"Kash...I was in your place...I mean not drowning but...kash'" Meera said dreamily.
Geet's face changed from a scowl.
"Theek hein, theek hein, your Ghost Boy is only yours" Meera giggled.
They're only teasing me, Geet thought and hid her face in her palm.
"Anyway, tomorrow we're going to the Cocktail's Fair, remember, at night it will be more exciting" Pinky said yawning. Meera looked at Geet importantly and asked "you'll be alright nah?" she asked.
Geet shook her head approvingly. "Positive" she grinned back.
"Right, guys, good night, have nice dreams" Meera said.
"Especially Geet ' dream, dream" Pinky added and Geet wacked her in the ribs.
Geet closed her eyes.
The sun piercing the glittering body of the unknown savior Maan. His eyes searching nervously for her.
"Geet...Geet!" Meera shook her.
"Oh" Geet said blushing opening her mouth in a O shape as she abruptly woke up.
Pinky winked at Meera and mouthed "Ghost Boy".
"I'll get ready" Geet said quickly blushing.
"Why is he in my head" Geet thought. "Kash...i would meet him again".
As Geet jumped in her purple salwar kameez, Meera asked "by the way, I hope the Ghost Boy was not an oldie"
"Nope" Geet snapped defensively "he was around our age, eighteen or nineteen or least twenty, not more" Geet replied. Meera winked.
Geet ignored them.
Cocktail's Fair
"Let's go on the roller coaster" Meera pointed.
"Yeah" Pinky cheered.
Geet looked green.
"Geet, if you're not feeling ok, it's alright, you wait here itself...we'll come to take you..." Meera said.
"Nope, we won't even go, if we're going somewhere, we're going together" Pinky replied firmly.
"Nah, guys, I'm tired I'll sit here itself..." Geet said. "You carry on."
"No" Meera replied seriously.
"Guys, go on, please..." Geet said giving them a puppy face. Meera and Pinky went away.
"I'm thirsty" Geet muttered to herself. "Lemme buy a soda" she thought and when to buy one.
She drank when she almost spat her soda. Ghost boy?
Yes, it was Ghost boy. Yes, in black jeans and a blue shirt smiling at her.
"Ghost Boy" she cried aloud.
"Ghost boy?" Maan repeated. Geet nodded slightly feeling herself blushing.
"So you named me ghost boy" he said inching closer to her face. Geet felt her heart thumping loudly.
"Woh...yesterday where did you disappear? I searched for you" Geet pouted. Maan could not help smiling at her childish face. "I had to go" Maan replied. Geet scowled. Maan inched more closer and caressed her cheeks. Geet blushed. "You're too cute" Maan giggled.
"So where are your friends?" Maan said scanning the area.
"Went in the roller coaster" Geet replied walking by his side.
"And you?" Maan asked.
"Scared" Geet admitted. She did not know why she trusted this stranger.
"What do you do?" Maan asked.
"College" Geet replied and asked "where do you live?"
"I'm not from here, I came for holidays".
Geet's face saddened and Maan gave a chuckle "but enough time to be with you" he whispered.
"Come on" he said dragging her.
"where?"
"I'm a ghost remember, I am taking you somewhere scary...horrid..." he giggled.
"Maan..." she moaned.
It was dark. The moon was shining above them.
"Maan..." she whispered.
"don't be scared, your ghost boy won't hurt you" he smirked.
She blushed and sat on the bench with him.
He held her palms. She blushed.
What was this? Why she was so comfortable?
"How old are you?" she asked.
"Twenty" he replied.
"Why have you come here?" she asked nervously.
"To be alone with you..." he smirked.
"Huh?"
"Kyun...scared to be alone with your ghost boy"
She felt special. He just said he was hers. Her ghost boy.
She felt him leaning against her cheek. His lips brushed the right cheek. She flushed red.
"When are you going back home?" she asked.
"Tomorrow" he retorted.
"What?" she asked shocked.
"Don't worry, if we are destined, we'll meet again..."
He took out his cell phone and snapped a photo of hers.
"Can I use your cell to phone my friend and tell her to wait for me at Zoey's?" she asked.
"Yours" he grinned handling her phone.
Geet almost gasped as she realized that the background picture was hers, grinning broadly with her friends.
It was this morning when she was building this sand castle and the waves had destroyed in two minutes later. He had been watching her, keeping an eye on her. Ghost, she thought feeling herself grinning.
"I think it's quite late" Maan remarked glancing at the digital clock on the mobile as Geet gave him back.
"It is" Geet answered.
"We should go back, I don't want them to think I kidnapped you" Maan laughed.
He's not a ghost, he's real, and he kissed my cheek she thought.
He held her arm as they walked back to the fair.
Meera and Pinky were waiting for her at Zoey's.
"Hey guys", Geet started feeling Maan right behind her...
"meet Maan..." Geet said turning to present Maan to her friends but he had vanished!!!
"Where?" Pinky said her eyes shining mischievously.
"as I said Ghost Boy" meera giggled.
How can he? He kissed me...then? where did he go?
Was he ghost?
Couldn't be...he kissed me... but where he's...
Someday we'll meet
