Ch 3 - The Upcoming Strom
Chpater 3
The evening sun cast a golden glow over the campus as Sophia and Shivani cornered Roshni in the dorm common room. "Hey, Roshni, let's go out tonight!" Sophia exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "We'll show you the best café in town! We can grab some coffee and hang out till the hostel gate closes at 10 pm."
Roshni hesitated, feeling a twinge of unease. She had already shared more about her past with Sophia and Shivani than she had intended, and she wasn't sure she was ready to go out with them yet. "I don't know, guys," she said, trying to sound casual. "I have a lot of studying to do."
Sophia pouted, her lips curling into a sly smile. "Come on, Roshni! It'll be fun, I promise! And we'll make sure you're back in time for the gate closure." Shivani chimed in, her voice sweet and persuasive. "Yeah, we'll make it a quick hangout. We just want to get to know you better."
Roshni felt a flutter in her chest. She didn't want to offend her new "friends," but she wasn't sure she was comfortable going out with them yet. Little did she know, Sophia and Shivani had other plans...
Roshni hesitated for a moment, but not wanting to anger her new friends, she agreed to go out with them. They walked out of the hostel together, chatting and laughing. But just as they reached the gate, Sophia suddenly stopped and said, "Sorry, Roshni, I forgot something. I'll just run back to my room to get it. Wait here with Shivani for just 2 minutes, okay?"
Before Roshni could respond, Sophia had already turned and hurried back towards the hostel. Shivani gave Roshni a reassuring smile and said, "Don't worry, she'll be right back. Let's just wait here for a sec."
Roshni nodded, feeling a bit uneasy. She didn't like being left alone with Shivani, who seemed to be watching her with an intensity that made her skin crawl. But she didn't want to be rude, so she waited in silence, trying to make small talk with Shivani.
As the minutes ticked by, Roshni started to feel a sense of unease. Where was Sophia? Why was she taking so long? And what was Shivani's gaze really saying?
Sophia, who had left Roshni and Shivani waiting, arrived in the corridor, calling out to someone on the other side of the girls' hostel. The boys' hostel was nearby, and a group of students, including Suraj and his friends, were chatting and cursing Roshni and Rudhir. One of them said, "This is all that bitch fault, that fucking bitch." Someone else agreed, "Right, she thinks she's so smart, but we'll show her."
Suraj, the leader of the group, sneered, "Don't worry, I'll take revenge on both of them. Who does that cold, stupid guy think he is, acting against me? But I'll take revenge on that girl." Someone else said, "Don't worry, Suraj, Shivani and Sophia are following her. They'll definitely gather information about that girl." Suraj smiled, seemingly pleased with the plan.
Just then, Suraj's phone rang, playing the tune "Bheege Hote Tere Pyasa Dil Mera". He picked it up from his pocket, smiled after seeing the caller ID, and answered the call. His expression turned even more sinister as he listened to the person on the other end.
It seems like Suraj and his friends are planning something sinister against Roshni and Rudhir. And with Shivani and Sophia involved, it doesn't look good for Roshni...
On the other side of the girls' hostel, Sophia, who had just finished telling her boyfriend about everything, smiled and agreed with Suraj's planning. She confirmed the bar location and time, and with that, she ended the call and left to meet Roshni.
As she walked back to where she had left Roshni and Shivani, she couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. She had played her part perfectly, and now it was time to see the plan unfold.
When she arrived, Shivani and Roshni were still waiting, oblivious to the danger that was lurking. Sophia smiled sweetly and said, "Sorry about that, guys. I'm ready now. Let's go have some fun!"
Roshni, still hesitant, nodded, and the three of them set off towards the bar, unaware of the trap that Suraj and his friends had set for them...
Roshni and the others arrived at the bar, named "The Sexy Bar", which had a different vibe and an old structure. Roshni felt hesitant and said, "Guys, I don't have enough money for this. I think we should go somewhere else." Sophia smiled and said, "Don't worry, since you're our new friend, I'll pay." She muttered to herself, "Don't worry, I'll pay for you, because you're my source of entertainment. How can I leave you without paying back for my boyfriend's embarrassment?"
Roshni said, "No, no, you can't, sorry." Shivani, who was listening, understood that Sophia had something planned in her mind, so she didn't worry. "Don't worry, Roshni, we're rich, don't worry," Shivani said. Roshni hesitated a bit but agreed, and they entered the bar.
When she entered, she really closed her eyes in embarrassment after seeing a boy and girl kissing and making out. A girl was lying on a chair, and a boy had one hand on her neck and the other roaming in her skirt. Feeling disgusted, Roshni looked away, but Sophia smiled and said, "This is common, Roshni." Roshni, still in shock, nodded, not understanding the meaning of "common" because she was nothing like modern girls.
They sat down at a chair beside the counter, and Sophia offered Roshni a drink of alcohol. Roshni, who had listened to Sophia's request, said, "Wait, Sophia, I don't drink alcohol, please." Sophia smiled and said, "Oh, come on, Roshni, we're adults, we can drink. I don't accept our dear friend's saintly nature." Roshni still argued, feeling uneasiness in her mind.
: ...Roshni still argued, feeling uneasiness in her mind. Sophia smiled and said, "Oh, come on, Roshni, just one drink. It'll loosen you up." Roshni shook her head, "No, Sophia, I mean it. I don't drink." Sophia raised an eyebrow, "Suit yourself, but you're missing out on the fun "
: Sophia said in mind, "Don't worry, you can deny all you want, but we will take revenge of ours." It's good I tell Suraj about Roshni's nature. Just in case this happened, Suraj brought an alcoholic pill. She ordered drinks for her and Shivani and juice for Roshni. Some time later, a waiter returned with drinks and served them. Just as they were thinking about drinking, Sophia said, after reading her phone text, "Wait, Roshni, first can we get to the washroom?" Roshni felt confused and said, "If you want to go, you can. Why are you asking me?" Sophia smiled and said, "You know, girls, obviously we're going to the washroom together. Come on!" and picked her hand, walked to the washroom, and entered.
Then, a group of male boys entered the bar, looking somewhere. They were Suraj and his friends, Suraj looking for something and looked where the girls were sitting and smiled and said, "Ah, there!" He picked a pill after reading Sophia's text. He brought an alcohol pill and arrived at Roshni's table, lifted her juice glass, and mixed the pill with his finger and smiled. He said, "Now we will take our revenge, Roshni. Just you wait, you are going to regret messing with a 2nd-year student. Haha!" He laughed slowly.
