The Enigmatic Savior

Dev was very angry with Sir and was vilifying Abhishek. I was trying to calm him down. It was as if a Cold War situation had arisen between Abhishek and Dev.

"I could have used my dad's influence if I wanted to, but I don't. How he could!" Dev said.

"Calm down, tomorrow you will show your worth in the competition," I replied. I tried to comfort him. But he was not calmed down by my words. At that time Dev's brother came and calmed him down.

"Dev, calm down, act like a mature, bro. But listen, bro, tomorrow you have to win. I can't keep him out of the competition because he has the support of the principal. But you can, you have my name on your shoulders," Dev's brother said.

"OK, bro, I'll protect your name," Dev replied with a big smile.

Then the competition for the role of hero in the play started. Even though they knew Abhishek, Piyali and Trisha they were supporting Dev.

"Listen Abhishek, you and Dev have to play the character of Romeo. And then all the students will vote for the two of you, the best of you will win. But remember one thing, you need qualifications here, your acquaintance can't do anything," Piyali warned Abhishek.

Dev's performance was very beautiful. When Dev finished his lines, the whole room resounded with applause. Seeing Dev's performance, at first, I thought Dev would win. Such a beautiful performance would never be lost. Then came Abhishek's turn. As soon as he started acting, the atmosphere in the auditorium seemed to change. It was as if the congested benches of the auditorium have turned into a desolate, silent desert, and Abhishek's performance was like the sound of fast-moving air. In a single word, Abhishek's performance enchanted everyone. The pronunciation of his words was so clear and sweet and the expression was so good, that it would seem that he was not acting but really waiting from the age of Romeo to this present time waiting for his lost Juliet. The auditorium was quiet when he finished his lines. No sound can be heard except the sound of the ceiling fan. Then Dev clapped first and then everyone else clapped. I or Trisha are both surprised.

As other side the votes were counted, everyone held their breath in anticipation. The announcement came, and it was a tie. Both Dev and Abhishek had won an equal number of votes. It was a fair result, a testament to their exceptional talent.

But suddenly I was shocked that Dev shouted,"You super boss, you should act."

"Thank you, I'm glad everyone liked my performance. But your acting is also good," Abhishek replied.

"Okay bro, are we friends from today?" Dev asked Abhishek.

"Okay, we're friends from today," Abhishek replied.

So let's have a party in honour of our new friend today. Said the Trisha.

"Why not, let's go," Dev replied.

Piyali and I have been kind to Abhishek so far. But in my mind, the insult he had inflicted on me began to revolve.

We had a small party that day at the restaurant. However, Abhishek did not speak to me that day. Then about a week passed. Everyone's relationship with Abhishek has been arisen very sweet. But Abhishek and I were like two poles, never both of us liked one thing. He opposes me all the time. But I didn't understand why he behave to me like this. He always came forward to help me but doesn't seem to want to make our relationship better. He seemed to want to keep himself away from me. But I did not know the reason.

But this time an incident happened which made me know the reason for his staying away from me.

Trisha and I now went for a walk every evening. But today I was in a bad mood. So I was running because of anger. Trisha was having a hard time running with me. He kept shouting and telling me to run slowly and beat the one I was angry with, and why I was throwing that anger on her. Actually today, Abhishek insulted me a little in college this morning. While the rehearsal of the play was going on, I forgot some lines of my part, but because of that, Abhishek told me that I am not worthy to be in the play. I was very upset to hear this. But when Piyali told him to apologize to me, Abhishek apologized to me but my anger did not subside. I didn't know why he always insulted me and treats me badly.

"Damm girl, you were angry at Abhishek, why were you giving me the fruits of that anger. Please run a little slower," Trisha said.

"Don't run slowly Trisha, there is less fog today, so if you run hard in this night air, your health will be better," I said to her in the replay. At that time Trisha got a call on her phone. He stood up. But I did not stop and went ahead. After a lot of running, I realized I had come a long way and probably lost my way. It was very difficult to recognize the way at night in the foggy roads of Phulbari. It was very difficult to go out at night if you are not a local. Unable to find my way, I took a jungle road to take a shortcut and reached the main road. However, the amount of fog there was very dense. It was very difficult to see anything.

At that time a car suddenly came towards me from nowhere. I didn't have time to move. The car was coming towards me, but in the blink of an eye, Abhishek came out of nowhere and stopped the car with his own hand. He seemed a little different. Her eyes are burning red like a flame. I was completely surprised and lost consciousness.

When I woke up I found myself lying on the hostel bed. Trisha was sitting next to me. Dev and Abhishek were standing. There was a sign of worry on their faces. They seemed to be a little relieved to see me open my eyes.

"Tia, you're fine. We were a little scared. You fainted on-road and Abhishek brought you to the hostel and called us. We actually were very scared to hear that so we came here. You went ahead of I could not find you. And your phone also said switched off. I was also a little bit tense. So I called guys. And hopefully, Abhishek found you. If he could not find you we didn't know what we would do," Trisha said with panic.

I was a little bewildered to see that.
