"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. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjlVEtNk3y
"I should have agreed with my friend to have not gone on this date." He muttered. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZjGcyzhK7
"I heard that!" She bellowed, but it was more comical than expected. Josh chuckled. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fZGsTKnoa
"The gay freak can’t decide whether you come on this date or not, or else I would’ve perished." 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1lelL9Vly
“Hey! Don’t call him that, will ya’?” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd3JKGFC9U
“Sorry. But I stick to my point.” She said. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf82ARYTgc7
“And what’s that?” He replied in a strained voice. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNJnTfUyxf
“That I really like you Dumbo!” She said with a mischievous laugh, running deeper into the forest. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFaQOwkN2q
554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkLFmVnR4g
“Why did you want a date in the forest?” She asked curiously, walking over the thick weeds and vines, Josh following close behind her.554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2C5EHfTNE
“Why not? It’s Halloween, no better thing to do on a Halloween’s day, is it?” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZhU51PTNi
“You can stay at home and eat cake...” she said in a suggestive, gentle voice. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRLGevN9O0
“Nah!” He said after thinking the cake over. “I’d choose nightmarish forest.” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK28g9wgzc
554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY4KRcZwQp
They walked for a while or so, talking. They weren’t sure what they were talking, but they were discussing stupid things.554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fzqPYjg3d
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. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUblTcGSquI
“So, what are you doing in America?” He asked. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQHDCdnyk1
“My step-father lives here; You wouldn’t expect my mother to say no to living in America.” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhuiADW74o
“Why not?” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwm5TKZyHcM
“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.” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiPJfq55Qr
“In other words, attractive.” She said, and it was very clear that she was blushing even if it was dark. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKrqCjBrlh
“Eh. I guess.” He said softly. “And sassy.” He added. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5SmuITbhE
“But what makes me even more curious is why.” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1m0ikoza3
“Why...what?” She asked, squinting to look ahead of the fog. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lmWUksF6d
“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!” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2ekPbQ7Tx
Josh decided he didn’t want to ask what a chapati was, and walked ahead besides her. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlIHOe5qfs
“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. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxQ6VFS0zU
“Indeed.” He said in amaze. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHur1oFe2lJ
“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.554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCshNvcl3JG
554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz39ZZ7KYW9
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? 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS8ul9UzJO
“What in the name of effing Christ was that?!” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtYASQL9Cw
“I have no idea.” Josh said dumbfoundedly. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpDmBJgXKZ
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. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQN7Msy7Bh
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. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzW2K57x9uc
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. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmoxLFhAia
“You really are as unexpected as they say, aren’t you?” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6XzTgVL5U
“Depends on who’s saying it.” She said, panting. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrHg6nBgAM
That’s when the two dumb heads realised there was a glass window at the back. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7JA4bpNi9
“Hey! We can break it with that stool!” She suggested. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMP8zS18Ro
554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB0s3ku1vW
Lata looked at the ring on her finger, smiling to herself. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZes2n0YzPx
“Oi. Josh.” She said, calling him to sit beside her. Without hesitation, he sat down. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxm66lRZhRC
“Do you remember our first date?” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyEVFDEcLb
“As scary as it was, yes I remember it very clearly.” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZGOyn4mBS
“I still can’t believe we got out of that forest. It seems so unreal now...”. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdgGmIqFQZ
“I assure you, it was very real.” He said, planting a kiss on her cheek. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwWNHreKLG
“That was 11 years ago. I still can’t believe it’s tomorrow, the biggest day of my life!” 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxlkQw3aov
“How are you feeling?” He asked, awaiting her response. 554Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs15qLGO7To
“In love.”
