hey guys here is the chapter thnks for lovely comments.
Hidden Souls Chapter 3 - The Nightmare Begins :
" Weeelcooome. "Came a voice in a mere whisper.
Asad : " Did you guys hear it? "
They all heard a frantic laughter and they turned around to face Ayaan.
Ayaan : " Y- you really thought i- it was the g- ghost " he said still giggling in between.
Zoya : Allah Miya what's wrong with you Ayaan?... Do you know how sacred we got? "
Ayaan : " Did you really believe that it was it was a ghost? "
Arnav : " Shut up Ayaan! It's not funny. "
Humaira : " Guys forget it, i'm really sleepy. "
Purvi : " Yeah and we haven't even recorded anything so let's just stay here for the night. "
Khushi : " I don't think it's a good idea and it doesn't matter if we loose our job, we'll find another." She said not ready to spend the night here.
Ayaan : " You know that how difficult it was for us to find this job so we can't just loose it. "
Zoya : " I agree, but I think it's dangerous to stay here at night time. "
Asad : " Come on Zoya it will be adventurous. "
Arjun : " Isn't it going to be dirty? "
Arnav : " It doesn't matter we'll clean it up a bit. "
Purvi : " What's the sleeping arrangements? "
Humaira : " All the girls will sleep in one room, except Khushi and all the boys will sleep in one room, except Arnav. "
Arnav : " Where are me and Khushi going to sleep? "
Purvi : " Obviously you'll sleep with Khushi in a different room."
They all went to their perspective rooms and cleaned it a bit so it was clean to sleep in, it was 2:00 when all were fast asleep except Ayaan, who was trying hard to sleep and when he got fed up he went to the book shelf to read a book.
He grabbed a random book from the shelf and read the title...
'Hidden Souls'
* Woah! creepy title. Let's see what it's all about. *
He sat on the couch near the bed and flipped towards the front pages.
" Chapter 1 : A man named Yaana was once laying on the bed. He was trying to sleep , but couldn't , so he decided to read a book , what better way to kill time? He went to the book shelf and grabbed a random book , he read the title ... 'Hidden Souls' , he settled on the couch and started to read the book. "
* By the time Ayaan finished reading this, he was beyond shocked. This man Yaana, and him were in the same situation. No! EXACTLY the same situation. *
* And who would name the book they are publishing IN the actual story? * He was getting more and more confused by the questions he was asking himself.
He continued reading ...
"...Yaana was reading on his couch when he heard what sounded like footsteps in the kitchen. "
Ayaan was quietly reading the book , when he was disturbed by a sound from the kitchen , it was ... FOOTSTEPS! That's when he realised. *Yaana? Ayaan and Yaana, same letters in 2 names.* It all made sense. Well, atleast to us.
* No!No!No! It's nothing , I'm just imagining things. * He stood up and left the book on the couch. He decided to force-sleep himself.
But then the floorboard beside the stove groaned once. Twice. His pulse ramped up.
He froze-all his breath trapped. He was most definitely not alone. Someone was in the house. Although , the others were there, they must be fast asleep. Then who was awake?
Straining to hear, but his heart pounded too loudly and his breathing was harsh...
Ayaan crept into the kitchen. It was empty...yet his heart wouldn't settle. Something wasn't right here.
He could feel eyes on him.
*Weapon!* His mind screamed. *I need a weapon!* He darted toward the wide area. There was a chopping knife on the table. Ayaan slid his fingers around the rubber grip, shocked by how much his hands shook.
That was when he saw a shape in the window over the sink. A reflection.
He whipped around, a cry breaking from his lips.
But nothing. No one. His pulse roared, and confusion flashed through him. He threw a glance back to the window, and realised the reflection was just himself.
His breath whooshed out. "Idiot," He scoffed. "You are one big flippin' baby, Aya-"
Fingers closed around his ankle.
Ayaan screamed.
