It is said that when the devil dominates a person, initially there is tremendous confidence in person, but gradually it weakens that person from within. Though, for people like us who believe in science or logic I will say that, rather then using the word devil I will choose it too be negativity or evilness of mind.
Well, for people like me who like to be high on adrenaline, usually enjoys to do things which put them at risk and doing bad or wrong things give another level of fun.
But what if this fun is for short period? what if we get ourselves destroyed while doing so? what if we hurt others feelings bad while doing so?
.....
Next day morning I reach university with a big smile on my face, which is a quite rare sight. Well, I have a reason behind this, today, I can feel a strange type of energy flowing inside me which is making me feel quite energetic and happy too. Though, I can also feel somewhat a bit scary too but since I am an high on energy so I am ignoring this scary one.
On reaching inside the room, where the first lecture going to place I see only Asher sitting on one of the seats with some of the other students also sitting on other seats. Seeing this I become more happy, I walk hurriedly towards where she is sitting and excitedly say...
Me: (Excitedly) Hiiiee!!!
Asher: (Look up at me with shock and surprised expressions as if a I am ghost and with confusion said) Hey.
Me: (Moving towards my seat, which is as usual beside her) How are you?
Asher: (Calm but still confused tone) I am fine but I think you are not, what happened?
Me: (Settling down on my seat) What do you mean?
Asher: I mean look at you, excitement lurking out from you. You are looking happy and cheerful side, which is a next to impossible.
Me: (Innocently making a puppy face) Haww what do you want to say? I only remain sad?
Asher: (Hitting the back of my head, playfully) Stop, being dramatic okay? I am being serious here, tell me what happened?
Me: (Shrugging off my shoulders, lied like a professional one) Nothing it just I had something good in the breakfast.
Asher: (Look at me for a minute then she smiled and nodded her head in understanding) Okay but tell me what have you eaten in breakfast today?
Me: Noodles.
Asher: (Scolding tone) Are you mad? How can you eat unhealthy food that too in the morning.
Me: (Rolling my) What can I do if whatever cooked in breakfast by mother is something which I don't like? I cooked packet noodles for myself.
Asher: (Clapping her hands dramatically) Wow what an excuse.
At this moment first Carissa enter inside the room, seeing us directly she speak up...
Carissa: (Excitedly and smiling) Wow Asher, what's the matter you seems to be quite happy, look at you clapping.
I internally rolled my eyes at her for this dialogue and Asher shook her head ignoring Carissa's word. While Carissa is going to settle down, Savannah too enter inside the room and for a change she looks excited today plus has bright smile on her face too which is also a rare sight. Well, soon the both settled on their respective seats and as soon as this happened Asher initiated the conversation...
Asher: (Dramatically but not particularly to anyone of us, I think) Bro, today something amazing has happened, the mood of some people has changed in such a way as if today the sun has come out from somewhere else.
Me and Savannah looked at her with raised eyebrows, then roll our eyes and looked away while Carissa being confused asked directly from Asher...
Carissa: About whom are you talking about?
Asher: Nothing important.
Soon the lecturer enter inside the room and Carissa's attention got shifted towards her, seeing this Asher took a deep relaxing breath. Seeing this I smiled knowingly, as I know that she doesn't want to answer her question. The moment the lecturer start teaching us, my mind start talking to me....
Mind: Huhh Carissa is such a noisy person.
Me: Yeah right but what to do since both Asher and she living together in a house, so here in the university too we have to tolerate her.
Mind: Does happiness or excitement is too much lurking out from you that Asher speaks like this?
Me: I think so but how can doing things like 'drama of fake friendship' do so? I mean don't you think so it will be the most wrong thing to do?
Mind: O please! don't start this again, no need to be soft just enjoy the adrenaline rush that you are feeling.
Me: Yeah right. By the way it feels really good to be like this.
Mind: So, just enjoy it okay and stop complaining about it.
Just like this first lecture passed by, for our next lecture we start moving towards the other room which is on the second floor. Together we all walk upstairs in pairs, i.e. me & Savannah, Asher & Carissa. While doing so, Savannah initiated the conversation....
Savannah: Hey, how are you?
Me: Hey I am good, how are you?
Savannah: I am good too, how is your life going on?
Me: Its going great, what about you and how are you?
Savannah: A bit hectic but its going great too.
We enter inside the room to attend our second lecture and the moment it got started my mind start talking again...
Mind: Bro, now I got the reason behind her happiness and excitement.
Me: Really? And what was it?
Mind: Because she was planning to talk to you.
Me: Okay.
Mind: But hats off to you bro, I was not expecting you to be that much confident I mean, you just talk like as if you really want to be her friend.
Me: (Rudely) Huhhh you know right, I can never be friends with anyone and yeah when I talk to her I become all practical.
Mind: Yeah I know and I am truly impressed with your act.
Me: Hmmm.
Yet again this lecture passed just like that, where I keep talking to my mind and we again walk towards the other room where the next lecture is going to happen but the thing which is different now is I am actually sitting or walking beside Savannah only. And if someone will watch us from distance then they will surely think that we are actually friends.
Soon lunch time started, we start walking towards the cafeteria but before we step inside it, suddenly Savannah speak up....
Savannah: (Hesitantly) Umm, for a change can we eat our lunch in the park under the shed of the tree. I mean weather is good too, it will be fun to do so.
Asher/Carissa: Yes/no.
Me: (Trying to be cool plus speaking in favour of Savannah and I also know how much calm nature can make me feel) Yes why not it will be fun, we should always try something new.
Carissa: (With a disgusting look on her face) But there will be insects too and it will be unhygienic to sit on the grass and eat our food.
I rolled my eyes at Carissa for her behaviour, ignoring her words I walk towards the park and I can feel Savannah to following my steps. While me and her settling on the dry grass (which is actually properly cleaned and why won't it be, it's obvious for a university to keep it clean) soon Asher and Carissa too joined us. This time we sit in a bit circular form then start having our lunch, while doing so, Asher and Savannah speak occasionally and I hear to the quietly but Carissa stay with us with a deep frown on her face.
After nearly an hour we move towards other rooms to attend our next lectures, the whole time me and Savannah stay together, whether we are studying, walking, sitting or talking. And to be honest I feel some kind of warmth around her which I used to feel with Asher, which giving me a feeling as if I am safe and secured with her but as usual my mind overpowered telling me that, nothing is good in her.
Soon the last lecture of the day come, finally me and Asher got separated from them, we walk inside the room and get ourselves settled on the seats. Some minutes passed in silence as we waited for the lecturer to come and start the lecture but after ten minutes we come to know that she is on leave, feeling relaxed we start talking...
Asher: (With a genuine smile on her face) Its good to see you both talking, sitting and enjoying time together.
Me: (Like a professional liar) Yeah actually I thought why not do friendship with her, she seems to be a nice girl.
Asher: Good decision, I am happy for you.
Mind: (Scowling face) Yeah should be happy because I am actually doing it for you, you only want this to happen right?
Me: Shup up.
Asher: (With confused tone and raised eyebrows) What? but why should I shut up?
Me: (Mentally hitting my forehead with my palm) Hey, no I am not telling you to do so it just... ummm by mistake I got distracted.
Asher: Ohh okay. By the way, I hope that from today onwards you both will be good friends.
Me: Yeah me too hoping so.
Mind: Wow such a professional liar you are, I am impressed bro.
I internally smirk hearing him.
Me: How is it going with Carissa? You know.. I mean staying with her?
Asher: (Facial expression suddenly changed from smiling to dull) It is somewhat frustrating.
Me: And why so?
Asher: She has her own ways of living and handling this which I don't like
Me: Ohhh okay so, what next?
Asher: I don't know but I guess, will be staying together till the date I can tolerate.
Me: Okay but don't worry too much everything will be fine and I am here for you every time.
Asher: (Smiled brightly) Yeah okay. Now shall we leave the university and go back to home my guardian angel.
Me: (Chuckled) Yeah we shall leave.
Hearing this, she laughed out and I too joined her, after bidding our goodbyes we walk out of the university and start our next journey which is our houses. After an hour plus thirty minutes I reach back home, fortunately, seeing/hearing no dramatic incidence happened in house since the morning completely relaxed me.
After getting fresh I got engrossed in drinking my coffee, once it got finished I start completing my assignments while listening to some music which really helps me in concentration or else my mind got wild thinking about random things. Soon mother called for dinner, after having dinner I spend some time reading a novel then later around two in the morning I fall asleep thinking about....
what to do next, in my drama of fake friendship.....
