As they pulled apart,Kunj moved his face forward so that his forehead touched Twinkle's
Today had been no less than a roller coaster ride.First seeing Alisha and Vishal together and now this,Kunj had never in his life imagined himself to be falling for someone like Twinkle
He was falling for her.
It wasn't those usual infatuations or attractions he had back when he was alive,it was something way more than that.
It was different when he was with Twinkle.For the first time in these 2 years,he felt alive again
The turmoil and butterflies that Kunj felt in his stomach,Twinkle felt in hers too.
"Do you feel it?",asked Kunj,his eyes closed as his breathing got normal
"Do I feel the unexplainable feeling of happiness of being kissed by the hottest man in the world,yes"
Kunj smiled and opened his eyes as he heard Twinkle giggling
"Correction,I'm not the hottest man but the hottest ghost",said Kunj as he wrapped his hands around Twinkle's waist
"Correction again,you're my hottest ghost",said Twinkle wrapping her hands around Kunj's neck
Both Kunj and Twinkle didn't know why they were flirting but this feeling was completely new to them.They wanted to go on and on and be this close to each other always
"Didi aap theekh toh ho na",asked a small boy holding a basket ball in his hands
Kunj and Twinkle moved their gaze towards where the small voice was coming from
It took Twinkle not more than 2 seconds to realize the position they were standing in.For her,they were standing in each other's embrace but for the world,it was only Twinkle standing in an awkwardly uncomfortable situation with her hands up in the air as though holding someone
Twinkle quickly let go of Kunj and adjusted her clothes as she avoided the little man's gaze towards her
"Kya?"asked Twinkle as though she was unaware of the happenings around her
Aap mental ho? Asked the little boy curiously
Twinkle's eyes widened at the boy while Kunj bursted out laughing
Glancing once at Kunj,Twinkle stared at the boy again
Walking towards the boy,Twinkle bend down a little so that she matched his height
"Haan mein mental hun aur pata hai mujhe kya khana pasand hai? mujhe chote bacche khana accha lagta hai",said Twinkle slowly and creepily enough to scare the boy
Kunj suppressed his laughter as the little boy gulped down his saliva with difficulty
Twinkle smirked as she saw the scared expression on the boy's face
"Mumaaa",screamed the boy as he threw the basketball in the air,not caring where it went and ran for his life
Twinkle giggled as she turned back towards Kunj
Kunj smiled as he stepped forward and placed a kiss on her hair
"Let's go home",said Kunj as he entwined his fingers with Twinkle's
"Not yet,there's something very important that I need to do"
Looking at Kunj's confused face,she took his hand and led him away

At the girl's locker room
As Alisha kept her books in the locker and slammed the door shutting it,she found Twinkle standing in front of her,anger written all over her face
Though it was difficult to convince Kunj,Twinkle somehow managed to convince him not to come to the locker room when she was talking to Alisha.Kunj wasn't keen in leaving Twinkle alone with Alisha since he didn't trust her enough and knew what all she was capable of but he had to because of Twinkle's promise given to him by her.Twinkle didn't like upsetting him either but she needed to talk to Alisha alone and sort things out
"Hi",greeted Alisha with a fake smile as she started walking towards the door
Twinkle quickly stepped forward,infront of Alisha,blocking her way
"What's your problem? Let me go"
"Not before you answer my questions"
"Fine",said Alisha as she folded her hands near her chest."shoot"
"I know you killed your boyfriend Kunj Sarna"
The word shocked' must have been a very small word for Alisha at that moment.She felt a electric current pass through her body and she could feel the ground below her moving.But she needed to stay strong enough to be able to deal with little Ms not so perfect Twinkle.Composing herself,she began
"That's not a question"
Stupid,stupid,stupid!!!! Out of all the things in the world, this is the comeback she had.Not so cool,thought Alisha
Twinkle rolled her eyes
"Oh come on Alisha,don't try and play smart with me,you and I both know your little secret'"
"I don't know what you're talking about",said Alisha her attitude as high as before
"Sure you don't,look I don't have time for this,I'm just here to warn you"
"Warn me? About what?"
"I'm sure you must have already destroyed all the evidence that would lead the police to come to you"
"What evidence?"asked Alisha,shock written all over her face
"Look I don't know what evidence is that but it's out there and that one evidence is enough to destroy your life,So now,if you don't want to spend your entire life in the jail,you better go and hunt for that evidence before someone else does",said Twinkle stepping forward towards Alisha
Without waiting for her to reply back,Twinkle turned around and started walking towards the door
Twinkle stopped as she was at the door. Without turning around,she continued
"The evidence is in the football ground of our college"
"I haven't killed anyone",shouted Alisha nervously to Twinkle but Twinkle was already gone

At night
It was about 1 am when Twinkle secretly entered the football ground that was connected to the college's back gate and stood behind a tree so that no one was able to see her
"Common on Alisha,come here and destroy that evidence,I know you'll come here",said Twinkle to herself as she rubbed her hands together that were cold because of the 11 degrees temperature.
Just then Twinkle saw someone entering the ground.Twinkle shoved herself more inside the tree so that she wasn't visible
What shocked Twinkle were the 3 people walking towards the centre of the ground
"Wait what? Who are these 3 people? I thought only Alisha was going to come here tonight and try and destroy the evidence.Does that mean there was someone else involved in the murder too?",whispered Twinkle
Since all the 3 people wore black clothes with a hoodie covering their heads, Twinkle wasn't able to figure out who the faces were
"Come on,turn around,just let me see your face once,come one",said Twinkle to herself
And at that moment all the 3 faces turned revealing her identity,
Alisha Kapoor.
Vishal Khanna.
Manohar Sarna.
