SS: Tu rooh ka humnava hai. Yeh jismon ka rishta nahin. Update Page 67 - Page 5

Heeeeeya all,

So chapter 3 is here with lots of maasti. Really hoping you will like it.

I have actually started liking their friendship... even though Saira and Neil aren't friends yet.

Naira is a clown and SaiNeil love to tease her.

Thanks for reading.

They reached the cottage they rented for one night and decided to take some rest before going out for dinner. Neil took the room that had two single beds and let the girls have the double bed room. While Naira was busy on the phone with her husband, Saira and Neil shared their pictures on WhatsApp and checked on the nearest restaurants. Naira joined them some time later and the three talked about random things before going to the restaurant. They ordered some local food and continued their random talks.

« Ufff my husband is an idiot. », Naira rolled her eyes.
« What happened ? », Neil asked worried.
« He wants to pet sheeps. As if his two goats weren't enough. He wants to make my garden look like a f***ing farm. », she replied.

Saira and Neil looked at each other and burst out laughing while Naira pouted

« What love doesn't make you do... », he said in a sarcastic way.
« You will do the same, kiddo, once you will fall in love. I still wonder how come you haven't fallen in love yet ? », Naira said.
« I wonder the same. », he imitated her.
« You have dated six girls so far and you still haven't found the right one. When will you get married ? When can I dance in your wedding ? When can I see you go nuts because of your wife ?When will I see you suffer ? », she asked sticking her tongue out.
« Not because your life has turned into a joke that you have to keep your evil eyes on my freedom. », he joked.
« Hahaha very funny. », she replied sarcastically.
« On a serious note, every time things get serious I realize it's not love. My heart is still waiting for that girl for whom I can sacrifice my entire life or die for her. », he told her.
« Well you still have time. You are only twenty five and as a boy your mind is only fifteen. », she made fun of him.
« Stop the stereotypes. », he rolled his eyes then looked at Saira, « What about you Saira ? Any boyfriend ? Or in love with someone ? »
« Me ? No, I don't have anyone right now. », Saira was taken aback.
« That means you had someone. », he asked curious.
« No, nothing serious. When I was seventeen I was in a very popular group of friends. I dated one of them for eight months then we realized we were only attracted to each other and it wasn't love. We were young and mad. Then two years ago one of my colleagues made me feel quite special and loved. Something I had never experienced. I finally felt like I could be loved too. But we broke up because our priorities weren't the same. I never had any serious relationship. », she said.
« Awww let's make her feel that she is loved, Nini. », he winked at Naira.

Naira and Neil jumped at Saira for a hug.
They finished eating and went back to their cottage. On their way back home they somehow ended up discussing about religion. How the extremists make the religions look so complex. Neil not being religious had difficulties to agree on many things the religions preach. He was a believer in God not a practitioner.

« I don't follow blindly. I always need a logical reason or explanation before believing in something. », he explained.
« People make their religions complicated by inventing and exaggerating things. », Saira said.
« Do you know Neil fasted for a whole week last year ? », Naira informed her friend.
« Oh yeah I wanted to feel and understand the month of Ramadan. I take interest in religions to understand the depth of it. I am also planning to keep Karwachauth fast. », he explained.
Saira laughed, « It's the women who fast for their men. It's rare to see men do the same. »
« Let me just find that woman for whom I can sacrifice my one day food. », he winked at her.

Saira smiled a little blushingly and much more questioningly. Who was this weird guy ? Why was she smiling at his weirdness ? They reached the cottage and Naira and Neil raced for the shower. Neil being a man, he won the race as he had to take only his night wear and his two in one shampoo/body wash while Naira had a whole beauty product box to take along with hair dryer and many other things. He stuck his tongue out at her and slammed the door to piss her off. Saira laughed and consoled her by letting her go next. After Neil it was Naira's turn to take the shower. He looked at the single beds and decided to push them together to make one.

« What is he up to again ? What is this brouahaha about ? », Naira asked coming out of the washroom.
« He is trying to make one big bed. », Saira informed her.
« Oh Allah save us from this weirdo. », Naira prayed.
« Your Allah loves this weirdo more so definitely won't listen to you. », he winked at her.

Saira shook her head and entered the washroom. By the time she came out, the other two were in his room. Naira was lying perpendicularly to him, her head resting on his chest. Saira joined them and sat down on the bed next to them. Naira showed her his phone with a chuckle. Saira looked at the picture her friend was showing her. She widened her eyes and burst out laughing. Neil was wearing a woman's dress in the picture imitating a woman's posture.

« You are looking so beautiful, hot and sexy. », she made fun of him.
« One of my colleagues challenged me once. She didn't know that I never shyed away from challenges and ridiculing myself. », he explained.
« Now I know why the ridicule couldn't kill anyone that's because you killed the ridicule. », Naira facepalmed, « I can't take this guy anymore. Now you see what I am dealing with for eight long years ? », she said to Saira.
« Oh please, the reason you love me is because I am too awesome. », he self praised him.
« I am going to ignore this statement. », Naira rolled her eyes.

Neil and Saira laughed at their friend. The banters continued and they talked about random things.

« See, you were worried for no reason. My friend didn't turn out to be a creep. », Naira said.
« I wasn't afraid of him being a creep. I was worried about the awkwardness. », Saira replied.
« I felt your shyness and that's why I immediately tried to break the uneasiness. », he said.

Saira looked down. His thoughtfulness was something to die for. He looked at her and smiled. Her shyness despite being a strong headed and savage person was something to die for.

« When Mr. Thoughtful is here not to fear. », Naira teased him.
« I thought I won't recognize you. », Saira said.
« Why ? Nini never showed you my pictures ? I am hurt now. », he acted being hurt.
« Not because of that. I slightly suffer from face blindness. I often don't recognize the faces of people I just met. Sometimes it takes a few days for the brain to catch. », Saira explained.
« Wooow it's the first time I have come across a person with prosopagnosia disorder. That's so cool... I mean not so cool for you... but cool for me.... », he stammered.
« Shut up now. », Naira chuckled, « Stop stammering. You screwed up big time. ».
« Shoot. Sorry Saira. », he apologized squeezing his eyes.
« It's ok. That's life. Shit happens. », Saira shrugged innocently.

Naira burst out laughing at his blunder. He rarely put himself in such situations and when he did she always enjoyed it. Her smile disappeared when she saw the rocking chair rock by itself. Saira who had noticed it too looked at Naira and leaped. She unconsciously rested her head on Neil's thigh and lifted her feet up on the bed. It took her around half a minute to realize that her head was on him.She sat up on the bed and apologized with uneasiness. He reassured her that he didn't mind it.

« What the f**k was that ? Is this house haunted ? », Naira asked.
« This house is not haunted but your head is. », he teased her.

Naira shook her head and started to tell him what happened during her and Saira's trip to Nice. Every night they heard the wood floor crack continuously. One night she wondered if people weren't making out up there. She also wondered what kind of position they were trying for the floor to crack so much. Saira said that they were probably trying every position of Kamasutra.

« I didn't even know the Kamasutra was invented by the Indians. Thanks to Saira for enlighting me on that. », Naira said.
« Ahhhh Nini, you are an unique piece. », Neil facepalmed with a chuckle. « Twenty five years old, married and yet you have no idea about it. What do you do with your husband ? You play ludo or what ? », he added.

Saira burst out laughing. Naira with a straight face asked him to shut up. She continued to explain how she shouted at them to stop the kamasutra. The floor had stopped cracking to which Neil laughed. They also heard the sound of a hammer smashing an iron gate. He raised his eyebrow and suggested that maybe a blacksmith was working there.

« At two in the morning ? », Saira asked.
« Heeeeey maybe he is just like me who gets hyperactive after a cup of coffee. », he replied.
« Then how do you explain that every night at 1 A.M, there was a bad smell of drains ? », Naira asked.
« There is something called the garbage truck that collects all the shit you throw daily, Nini. », Neil said in a mocking tone.
« This guy will only look for excuses. », Naira sighed.
« No, I believe there is always a rational explanation. I don't believe in paranormal activities nor to any kind of dark energy. », he explained.

The girls being Muslims believed in Jinns while Neil didn't believe in such things. The girls started to share stories they experienced or people around them had experienced. Neil rolled his eyes or raised his eyebrow at each of the stories. Saira told about experiencing things as a teenager which she won't try now. The brave girl in her vanished with age. She and her friends once imitated the Halliwell sisters from the show Charmed and summoned demons. The window opened in the mddle of it and the wind blew out the candles. Ten minutes later one of her friend's mother called to inform her that her cats died ten minutes ago. Another time one of her friends mentioned about « Dame Blanche », a woman who died in a car accident. She shows up if her name is taken seven times. All of them wanted to try it and went to the toilets. Each one of them took a cabin and started taking her name. Suddently the window opened making the girls ran away in fear. When they tried to open the main door, it was jammed. Almost twenty seconds later, the door finally reopened and they came out almost dying from a heart attack. She also told the story of her aunty who came across a woman and her daughter living in the new house she had bought. One night they tried to scare her by ordering her to leave but her aunt being mentally very strong said she won't because she has bought the house. If anyone should leave then it's them. Two days later they vanished and never came back. The same aunty whenever she comes at her place, there is always a power outage. Too weird for a coincidence. Naira agreed and asked Neil to give an explanation to that. He said « Saira's aunt brings bad luck that's it. ». Naira rolled her eyes and explained how one of her aunts can feel the dark energy and even see the jinns. Once she didn't want to enter in one of the rooms of the house they had rented during their trip to Spain. Her aunt saw four creatures in that room. She then shared how she was once possessed at the age of eighteen.

Hearing that, Saira moved away from her, « What ? How come you never told me this. God knows how many times during these last five years I have spent nights sharing the same room with you, sleeping on the same bed. »
« That sentence sounded so wrong. », Neil chuckled widening his eyes.
Saira gave him a fake smile, « Please, let's not look for the double meaning. I am seriously worried. I had a girl who is f***ing possessed. »
« I was... WAS... I am not anymore. That thing said it won't possess my body ever again. », Naira explained.
« You were possessed once. You can get possessed again. », Saira looked creeped out. She looked at Neil, « I feel like spending the night with you here. »
« Just say it that you both want a room together. », Naira said with a straight face.
« I think anyone would want to stay with a hot dude like me rather than a possessed soul like you. », Neil joked.

Naira pouted. Saira gulped. And then the rocking chair rocked again. The girls screamed and Neil facepalmed. They wondered how come it wasn't bothering him even a bit. They asked him if he never experienced such things. He told them that a few years ago, he and his friends came out from the movie theatre in the middle of the night after watching a horror movie. He said goodbye to everyone and drove back home at his parents' place who lived in the countryside. In the middle of the unfrequented road the car just stopped. The headlights turned off and he couldn't start the car. He usually doesn't pray but at that exact moment he was praying to God to help him. The car started again and he drove as fast as he could. That was the fastest ride he ever had in his entire life. He went to the garage the next to understand if it was a mechanical problem or something else. The car mechanic said the car was fine and it was quite strange if something like this happened. He was scared for some time but then he refused to believe it was something dark. He made up his mind that the car had broken down.

« When and why did we actually start talking about scary stuff ? », Saira asked.
« No idea. », both Neil and Naira replied.
« Oh I guess from our Nice trip. », Saira remembered.

They changed the topic and discussed about some other things. When they talked about going on a trip with family, Naira ended up telling them how all the members of her family are champions in snoring. She imitated the sound of all the snoring styles. The worst was her cousin's who snores in such a peculiar way that it sounds like she is moaning. When Naira imitated her, both the girls burst out laughing. They were unable to stop their laughter. Neil ended up laughing seeing them and hearing Naira's exaggeration.

« That's crazy how at three in the morning, I have to listen to such nonsense. Please girls, can we sleep now. », he said.
« Yeah let's go and have some sleep. », Saira agreed.
They were about to leave when he added, « Saira, if ever you feel you have a possessed girl next to you then just call me or join me here. »

Naira showed him her middle finger and left the room. Neil and Saira laughed. The girls went to bed and switched off the lights. Just when they almost fell asleep, the curtain fell down to the ground with a thud. Both jumped from the edges to the middle of the bed and switched on the lights. They looked at each other and cracked up. They decided to sleep with the lamp on.


The next day, Neil was the first to wake up. He went to the washroom and came back fresh and ready. Saira was next.

Neil blocking her way joked, « Do you recognize me ? Do you remember who I am ? »
« Ha ha ha very funny. », Saira rolled her eyes and gently pushed him aside.

She walked to the washroom with a smile. Neil noticed it and laughed. Naira who was still in her bed saw the scene and smiled.

They first had their breakfast and then went to Saint-Malo, a port city. They first visited the rampart from where they could see the old city and the sea. They walked the entire rampart for about two hours. Inbetween they stopped to take pictures of the view and themselves. Neil climbed the granite wall and sat down to look at the sea. Saira took a picture. Naira wanted the same picture and asked Neil to help her climb. He pulled her up and both posed for the picture. He then came down and helped her by carrying her. At their next stop Saira sat down on the bench facing the sea. The wind blowing her hair, a sweet smile on her face and the sparkling eyes contemplating the sea looked so beautiful that Neil couldn't stop himself from capturing the scene in his phone.

They then decided to visit the beach. Neil asked the girls if they wanted to climb on the rocks for instasensation pictures. Naira couldn't refuse to be captured with the picturesque view. On their way to the top, Saira who was behind Neil slipped and was about to fall when he turned around just in time to grab her hand. He then pulled her with all his force against him. Body against body, they looked into each other's eyes. More than her, she could hear his heartbeat racing fast.

« Thanks... I am fine. », she took a step back trying to remove her hand .
« I am not leaving your hand. », he tightened the grip.
« Yes hold her. I don't want her in the breaking news *A woman died falling from the rocks while taking Insta picture.* », Naira broke the seriousness of the situation.

If Saira was uneasy only because of their proximity, he on the other hand was worried about her safety. He prayed to God for his quick reaction. Naira's comment helped him to compose himself and it brought a smile on his face. Both climbed to the top hand in hand. After the photoshoot session, Neil held both the girls' hands and came down with them.
