Truth or Dare

chp - 3

The IPL has started and the date is 24th March MI vs GT
Ishan was currently in his and Mayank's room sleeping .

Ishan's pov

He did it again . I told him everything and I did not expect my life to change . I was lying with my hands tied together above my head . Completely naked crying in pain .

I saw someone coming towards me while my vision was going black . When it was all darkness around me I heard him say "Baccha I am here" . All the darkness leaving me and brightness englufing me in a hug. I saw Vatsal my first love . I hugged him . That's when again everything went dark. All I could hear was "You are disgusting" "Your parents did so much for you and what did you do other than being a shame to them" "At this age you like being fucked so let me do it . You like me so you won't object "

LEAVE ME
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME
I WANT TO DIE

Mayank
Ishan..... Ishuu...... ISHAN..... ISHAN WAKE UP . WAKE UP ISHU

Ishan
It was a dream . A nightmare. ( I said breathing abnormally. Waking up from the past is not how I want to start my day )

Mayank
It's been a week since your nightmares have returned. You wake up sweating and shouting at night .

Ishan
I am fine . Let's go down after I freshen up . I am soo soo hungry .

Mayank
Ishu his team arrived last night . When you will go down you are definitely going to encounter him. So be careful.

Ishan
Bla bla bla so boring. Just stay beside me okay ? I won't let anything happen to you .

Mayank
Excuse me?

Ishan
Stop worrying about me I am fine .
(Am I really fine?)

1 hour later

Mayank and I entered the dining area greeting everyone. I jumped on Rohit Bhai and Hardik Bhai hugging them tightly.

Ishan
I am so soo sooo hungryyyy

Hardik
Itna late ayega toh kya hoga . Come and eat fast .

( Ishan and Mayank took there plates and was eating while talking. Ishan was smiling ear to ear widely and laughing talking to everyone.
Shubman slowly entered the room )

Shubman
Hello everyone
( He entered the hall with Abhishek)

Rohit
Tu captain hai itna late ayega toh kaise chalega . Aaja baith jaa .

( I saw him but ignored him and kept talking to everyone else . There was a seat empty beside me and he came and sat there )

Surya
Is something wrong? Ishan did not talk to Shubman nor Shubman whined and acted offended about it?

Ishan
Aisa kuch nhi hai . Right Shubie?

Shubman.
Yes ofcourse.

( Everyone looked at us weirdly. I did not want to make everyone sad beside me . So I started talking to Shubman also . I took a small piece of pasta in my fork to feed Shubman. I felt so good hearing his voice again . Yes I blocked him but I wasn't able to understand what to do . I unblocked him after a day but he did not send any message. )

Shubman
Ishu.... Stopp itt . It's all over my face

Abhishek
Kya mast facial Kiya hai .

Ishan
Oh my god I am sorry ( he started laughing looking at Shubman's face which had white sauce all over it )

Abhishek.
Yeh Jaan ke Kiya na tune .

Ishan
Remind me why are you here again ? You are not in GT and not in MI .

Abhishek
My next match is with MI and then with GT . Do you have a problem with me staying here huh shorty 😝

Ishan
Mayankkk Rohit bhaiiiii Hardik bhaiii

Mayank
Stop Abhi. Why are you here exactly?

Hardik
Abhi Ishu ko pareshan mat kar

Rohit
Ishu ko jo pareshan karega wo 10 round maarega ground ka .

Abhishek
You have a problem with me staying Mayank??? ( Abhishek said sounding sad I thought) .

Mayank
Noo noo I did not mean that .

Hardik
Enough now Shub go wash your face .Ishu baby help him
( Hardik Bhai started laughing and we left from there .)

Author's pov

Ishan and Shubman went towards the washroom. Shubman tried to initiate a conversation.

Shubman
Ishu........... Are you listening to me?....... Ishuuu

Ishan
Let's just wipe your face and leave Shubman.

Shubman
Why the sudden change of behaviour? Why? Right now everything was fine but all of a sudden why are you acting like this?

Ishan
Please do not talk to me

Shubman
Listen I am sorry . I shouldn't have kissed you without your permission. I am sorry . I cannot let you stay angry at me . Please can you believe this a whole week we did not talk for a whole week . Do not let this thing affect our friendship. Please

( Shubman sounded so desperate. He felt vulnerable at that moment. All he wanted was Ishan in his life . )

Ishan
It's not that easy .

Shubman

tu jo rooTha to kaun hansega
tu jo chhooTa to kaun rahega
tu chup hai to ye Dar lagta hai
apna mujhko ko ab kaun kahega

tu hi wajah...
tere bina bewajah bekaar hoon main
tera yaar hoon main
tera yaar hoon main

aaja ladein phir khilaunon ke liye
tu jeete main haar jaaun
aaja karein phir wohi sharaaratein
tu bhaage main maar khaaun

meeThi si wo gaali teri
sun-ne ko taiyaar hoon main
tera yaar hoon main
tera yaar hoon main

TooTa hai to juRaa hai kyun
meri taraf tu muRaa hai kyun
haq nahi tu ye kahe ki yaar ab hum na rahe

ek teri yaari ka hi
saaton janam haqdaar hoon main
tera yaar hoon main...

Forgive me let's just forget about the bad memories? 1 night cannot change us can it? We are talking about me and you. We promised we won't let anything affect us this bad .
Can't you see my vulnerability?

Ishan's thought
What should I do ? Should I run away ? Like I did before? Leaving everything behind should I run away again? I am a coward I accept it . I always run away when things go wrong . Should I ?
I promised to myself not to let anything affect me but he does . He is just a friend.
If I leave him now . I will make one more person sad because of me. I am not weak . He is my best friend. Really important to me . If I act weak now it will be like . I haven't healed from the past . I won't let my past haunt me

Should I go hug him? Or should I run away?

________________________________________________________________________________

Stay tuned.
