"Are you catching up or what?" Shouted Charulata from a distance. Josh panted miserably, holding his breath for the future race this girl was going to make him run. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ILcc4AdIq
"I should have agreed with my friend to have not gone on this date." He muttered. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXrt0UxwC7
"I heard that!" She bellowed, but it was more comical than expected. Josh chuckled. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPORS3UyEtM
"The gay freak can’t decide whether you come on this date or not, or else I would’ve perished." 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RhQB1chyR
“Hey! Don’t call him that, will ya’?” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbwjNgxxjh
“Sorry. But I stick to my point.” She said. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oN6JdjTIe
“And what’s that?” He replied in a strained voice. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyhZSm0SdW
“That I really like you Dumbo!” She said with a mischievous laugh, running deeper into the forest. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0zub4rkYE
421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoRm0Afaij
“Why did you want a date in the forest?” She asked curiously, walking over the thick weeds and vines, Josh following close behind her.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDSXOXWw4N
“Why not? It’s Halloween, no better thing to do on a Halloween’s day, is it?” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HaQGcJhub
“You can stay at home and eat cake...” she said in a suggestive, gentle voice. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgvWVq6etO
“Nah!” He said after thinking the cake over. “I’d choose nightmarish forest.” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0LdZjMJN2
421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtc5e4VZ2M
They walked for a while or so, talking. They weren’t sure what they were talking, but they were discussing stupid things.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxjPAbrfZU
Josh wondered on how he ended up from walking her from class to walking her into a haunted forest leading to an abandoned castle. Ah. Yes it was her British accent that allured him to it. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ALQuFx9ap
“So, what are you doing in America?” He asked. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILaww5KOuj
“My step-father lives here; You wouldn’t expect my mother to say no to living in America.” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxALCU6CX6D
“Why not?” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJvtqYsnby
“I-I,” She paused and looked up at him. “I literally have no idea.” He laughed at her comedic way of responding to things. She really was the one girl he’d been interested in. It was like some prophecy had told him that she was his should mate (that prophet being a crooked guy who was his best friend)
”You always seem so broad minded and strong.” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCNZIrxRUs
“In other words, attractive.” She said, and it was very clear that she was blushing even if it was dark. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWREvP8nFU
“Eh. I guess.” He said softly. “And sassy.” He added. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHScGH3d5e
“But what makes me even more curious is why.” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PAMQmayOd
“Why...what?” She asked, squinting to look ahead of the fog. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlvbLXClEl
“Why are you so hard and straightforward?” He heard a sigh from ahead of him, and he held his breath awaiting her answer.
”It’s difficult when you come from an Indian family and suddenly you have to move to America. I’m bound to get bullied; boy, I got a few swear words today morning for bringing a chapati to school!” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKnVgS2ocX
Josh decided he didn’t want to ask what a chapati was, and walked ahead besides her. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK7gIY6VDX
“Top ten worst first-date-in-a-haunted-forest topics to talk about...” he muttered, following Lata’s scoff.
“Wow!” Cried Lata, staring at the broken down monument with unclouded flabbergast. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg8kkUZw52
“Indeed.” He said in amaze. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQF6sl3wgA
“Wanna go in?” Prompted she. He beamed at her excitement, sliding his hand into hers. She felt the warmth in his hands and she smiled to herself. This is the best date ever! She thought.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAa3Ks4ddjF
421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCvioYQc01
There was a scream, a loud one that too. Where you would barely expect any sound, you have to hear a blood-curdling scream at that moment, don’t you? 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwfFhIoIkt
“What in the name of effing Christ was that?!” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwfIhaJmYI
“I have no idea.” Josh said dumbfoundedly. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklJizF1caz
They decided that this was the Halloween spirit, and walked on further to see where the scream came from. Suddenly—
BAM! The door slammed shut, leaving both to perish in a haunted castle. Lata gasped, but she still seemed excited. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySUQCjRMVP
There was that loud scream again, This time even louder. The room was getting colder, and there was a smell of rotting flesh filling up the place like water fills an empty bowl. Footsteps approached, getting louder from every moment, filling their hearts with fear. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFY6UrDeChP
Before the door could even open, Lata pulled Josh and pressed her lips tightly to his. His hands coiled round her waist, and she smiled. When they finally did let go, they were both smiling. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVG8gEzrb2
“You really are as unexpected as they say, aren’t you?” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuICHAFqN0
“Depends on who’s saying it.” She said, panting. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhulqotzYAB
That’s when the two dumb heads realised there was a glass window at the back. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIlhFl16c3
“Hey! We can break it with that stool!” She suggested. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2NjcHZ2hS
421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibyigTPHnB
Lata looked at the ring on her finger, smiling to herself. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsp8S6xPDRo
“Oi. Josh.” She said, calling him to sit beside her. Without hesitation, he sat down. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJqW1ZFCPD
“Do you remember our first date?” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNeCJDnZyt
“As scary as it was, yes I remember it very clearly.” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pEfrxWMr7
“I still can’t believe we got out of that forest. It seems so unreal now...”. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqjpw1yCRV
“I assure you, it was very real.” He said, planting a kiss on her cheek. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hUXU8bG72
“That was 11 years ago. I still can’t believe it’s tomorrow, the biggest day of my life!” 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡze0c33a8La
“How are you feeling?” He asked, awaiting her response. 421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡes6x3C3zfx
“In love.”
