SHADOWS OF PAST (Chapter 25-pg.114) 24/02

Hello guys[BR]I've been quite active in the forum from few days. I've read many stories in this forum and all these inspired me to pen down something. This story is going in my mind from a long time but today I finally decided to write it down.[BR]So here I am posting a Prologue to the story. Please tell me how is it? And shall I continue it or not?[BR]. PROLOGUE[BR]She was not always like this. She had always been a fun loving, bubbly and lively girl but just ONE INCIDENT changed it all, changed her completely.[BR]She was no more a bubbly, chirpy girl. She had become silent and quite. The girl who made everyone else laugh, has herself forgotten to smile. Now she used to carry a fake smile.[BR]She is NANDINI MURTHY!!! An 18 year old girl, whose trust was badly broken. She now could not trust on anyone easily and she was afraid to talk to strangers.[BR][BR]Today she is leaving for Mumbai to join S.P.A.C.E, the best music college. It's her father's dream to see her as a successful singer. And she is going to complete her father's dream.[BR]Her three childhood besties are accompanying her...NAVYA, MUKTI, and ALYA. They had always been besides her and now also all four of them are together joining SPACE.[BR][BR]In Mumbai, they will be staying together in a PG. Their landlady is Mrs. Mary D'Souza. She is a sweet lady and lives alone. She lost her husband five years ago in an accident. And her son went abroad leaving her all alone. Mrs. D'Souza has no family here.[BR][BR]Nandini's parents had done all the living arrangements beforehand. They very well knew about her past and about the pain she had gone through. They were with Nandini all this while. They willingly sent her to Mumbai so that she can forget her past.[BR][BR][BR]So guys here is the prologue. Please tell how is it and shall I continue.[BR]Waiting for ur replies[BR][COLOR=RED]Index [/COLOR][BR]Chapter 1- pg. 2[BR]Chapter 2A- pg.4[BR]Chapter 2B- pg.5[BR]Chapter 3- pg. 6[BR]Chapter 4A- pg.8[BR]Chapter 4B- pg.9[BR]Chapter 5 A-pg. 10[BR]Chapter 5B-pg. 11[BR]Chapter 5C- pg. 14[BR]Chapter 6- pg. 18[BR]Chapter 7-pg. 22[BR]Chapter 8-pg. 26[BR]Chapter 9-pg. 31[BR]Chapter 10-pg.34[BR]Chapter 11-pg.39[BR]Chapter 12-pg. 42[BR]Chapter 13-pg.50[BR]Chapter 14-pg. 55[BR]Chapter 15-pg. 59[BR]Chapter 16-pg.65[BR]Chapter 17-pg.69[BR]Chapter 18-pg.74[BR]Chapter 19A-pg.78[BR]Chapter 19B-pg. 84[BR]Chapter 20-pg. 90[BR]Chapter 21-pg.93[BR]Chapter 22-pg.99[BR]Chapter 23-pg.107[BR]Chapter 24-pg.111[BR]Chapter 25-pg.114

Thank u and for PM please buddy me.

Hello guys
Here I am with the first chapter
It is also a bit introduction to the characters. I know u all must be waiting for MaNan meet but it will take me more two or three chapters to bring Manik and others on the scene.
I first want to build a background of the story that will help in story's progress in future. I'm for now focusing on the girls bond. But soon we will see other characters too.
So here u go with the first chapter.
. Chapter 1
Mumbai 9:00am
All four of them reached Mumbai and came out of the airport with their luggage.

Mu: Wow!! Finally we are in Mumbai guys!!!
Al: Yes Mukti, its such a great feeling na. Finally we are going to live our dream of joining the SPACE academy
Nav: Yes guys, its so good to be here.

All three of them were expressing their excitement. But Nandini was standing quietly, just a small smile was playing in her lips seeing her friends excitement.

These four besties belonged to middle class families of Mangalore. They lived in same neighborhood since childhood and thus they were each others best friends. They knew each other in and out. They had completed their schooling together and have been with each other in every up and down. And now they are here to pursue higher education in music.

After their Mumbai admiring session, they hired a taxi and went to their PG. After one and a half hour or so they were standing in front of Mrs. D'Souza's house. They rang the bell and a lady in her late 50s opened the door and welcomed them with a smile. She was of an average height and a bit healthy. She wore a long frock that reached till her mid legs.
Mrs. D: Welcome my children.!! U all are finally here. Main kab se tum logon ka wait kar rha tha. Please come in.

They all entered inside and after exchanging greetings and a bit of intro-session, Mrs. D'Souza showed them their room.
Their room was in the first floor. A middle staircase at the end of the hall led them to their room. It was a single room, more like a big hall with four single beds placed on each corner, and a side table attached to every bed. Right side of the door led to a small pathway that led to the balcony. At the left side at a corner a door led to the washroom. Right in front of the main door of the room, a large mirror was placed with attached dressing table and a cupboard on its both sides. There were two study tables kept between the beds on both sides.
The room was very beautiful but was devoid of any decorations. There were only furniture.

Mrs. D: So...kaisa laga tum logon ko room? Did u liked it???
Al: Liked it..??? Aunty, we loved it!!!!!
Mu: Yes Aunty, its very beautiful
Nav: But Aunty ye itna khali khali kyun hai? Isme koi decoration kyu nai hai??
Mrs. D: Because beta, I wanted ki tum log isko khud decorate karo, as the way u like.

She then turned to Nandini and asked,
. " Beta...why are u so quiet?? Room pasand nai aya kya??"

N: No Aunty...aisa nai hai. The room is very pretty.

Mrs. D'Souza smiled at her and kept her hand on her head.

Mu: So guys, we have one week for the college to start. So why not we decorate the room till then?
Al: Yes Mukti, and we will also go for shopping and sight seeing. What say??
Nav: Yes of course Alya!! Kyun Nandini??

She just nodded her head with a small smile.

Mrs. D: Okay!!! Do as you like. But pehle get fresh and eat something. And then plan anything...okay!!!????

"Okay"... They all replied in unison.

I'll be waiting
