Train Encounter
Chapter-4
"Down Memory Lane"

Shalini had never thought that someone would ever propose her!! Well she thought that she was just another normal school going girl, with no interests in other worldly affairs. But her confution went wrong when a boy named Arun asked her if she wanted to be his Valentine...
Days had past since then and their reletionship had also matured alon the way...
After Arun completed his 12th std, he went to Pune to pusue his career in Medicine, Things were a little painful for Shalini. She was suddenly too lonely. Although Arun called her often but Shalini thought that his voice was becoming colder still, she felt herself drifting away from Arun.

Shalini Remembered every bit of the conversation that went on the last time when Arun called her a few days ago...

"Hello Shalini??"
"Arun!!"
"Yes its me, well... H...How are You?"
"well I am fine, what about You?"
"Hmm..... Just stressed out.. Too much study...
Shalini...I .....Was just....."
"Yes!!
"Maybe I'll call You later....Take care Shalini..."
Shalini could almost shout at Arun to tell..."SpeakUp!! Whay are You hesitating to share your feelings to me??" But she couldn't.

"Shalini !!" the voice brought back her in reality "Where are you lost??"

"Look...th..."

"Shalu!!" This time it was Mr.Sharma."With whom you're talking for so long??"

At once the call ended, Shalini went a little nervous & answered...
"Papa, it was nita. I couldn't meet her when I was leaving.....so.." she sayed add honestly hoped that Mr. Sharma will take this dumb excuse.

"Alright, But the train will be here after a few mins, so don't go too far.."

The Way Beyond (Prologue)

I woke up!  It was dark, tried opening  my eyes, didn't do much help. As if I was inside a void with only darkness around me .  I opened my eyes and the darkness flooded in! I tried remembering where I was, tried remembering something that  could explain why I am here, all in vain. My head hurt and I couldn't recall  anything. It felt like the time has collapsed on itself and now there is nothing else, well except for this dark void.  They say your lizard brain wakes up in these situations. From the depths of your consciousness, and attempts to guide your instincts to safety. I see something now! Maybe my eyes have finally adjusted themselves to this darkness. Something familiar comes into my vision, laying in front of me. A leather spined book on top of a towel, an old leather bound book. I looked around, I was sitting in the shade of a tree. Can you still call it a shade when there is nothing but darkness around? Like if a tree falls in...
