Chapter 12
The next few days were very difficult for Ella. It was the same time of the year when his family met with an accident and left him in this world leaving him alone.
And in the meantime, he did not show him the spirit or anything else that was calling himself Zam
What did he say to Zam?
Hoor recalled
"stay away from it"
"This is my name, lie, stay away from Ella. If not, I will take your life."
He was saying with anger and hatred
So this meant that he was not the soul of a twin brother of Zam
Then what was that? Thinking of something, he started searching the internet
About spirits, jinns, demons.
I don't know if this information was correct or not, no one must have seen a soul
"Hoor" she was about to sleep when the same voice came, she wanted to open her eyes and look in the dark, but she didn't see it.
He got up and turned on the light in his room
There was no one in the room then?
A cold wind seemed to circulate throughout the room
She put on a shawl and opened the balcony door and came out
In the distance there was nothing but darkness.
He must have felt uneasy
"What is happening to me? Why am I worried about him?" She spoke to herself
That night Ella stayed awake all night
He was gone as if he would never come again
The next morning she was going to his house with Jaya when a car stopped in front of them
Seeing Waseem sitting on the driving seat, Jaya turned away
"Sit and leave the house" he was saying to Jaya with hope
"what happened?" Ella asked him
"That bastard gave me his relationship seed" she mumbled in a low voice
So Ella shook her head sadly and holding his hand pulled him open the door of the back seat and forced him to sit inside then sat down herself.
"Hello" was sitting in the front seat
He was smiling and greeting them
"Islam wa Alaikum" he reminded sarcastically
Why did Ella remember his own Jinn after seeing him?
She even laughed at that name, and every now and then she called him by that name
"If I ever meet him again, I will definitely ask him his name," she thought, until then she would call him Jin-Zam or Apna-Jin.
He only saw her
He was embarrassed to greet her
"Walalaikum Islam" he said
"I don't think he likes me," she told Waseem, and Waseem gave her a glare as he drove.
"She can hear you, donkey."
On Waseem's words, he started showing his teeth
Then turned and saw him
"Sorry" she smiled innocently in her manner while Jaya was still staring at Waseem as he drove.
She was sitting on the seat behind the front seat while Ella was sitting behind the driving seat
"Jia." He elbowed Jaya "Stop staring at him?" He told her softly
But as if she was not listening to him, Waseem looked at her from the front mirror and smiled
Like there was nothing sweeter in this world than his anger
When they reached Jaya's house, as soon as they got out of the car, Jaya slammed the door and went inside the house
"Sorry Waseem bhai. And thanks for giving the lift" she said and got down from the car. She was now getting confused by Zaam's eyes.
How could this boy think that no human being is worried in this world, how carefree he was
"Hoor" She stopped in place and looked around in shock
"Hoor. Please Hoor. Please. Remember me. Please." Someone was saying with a damp voice
And Ella knew this voice very well, she turned and saw Zaam sitting in the car, who was discussing something with Waseem, and Waseem had driven the car towards the nearby house.
She came in
Why it was as if that voice was whispering softly in his ear
There was nothing around him then?
"Ella..." He was standing in front of her. Ella could only see him up to his chest. His entire body was missing, like a half-made picture that had been left unfinished.
"Hoor. Please remember who I am. You are the only one who can help me. Please help me. Hoor" he was saying as if he hadn't shaved today.
Do ghosts or jinns shave? He thought
"Which help?" he asked
"Just remember me. This will help me anyway" he would say as he leaned towards her and placed his lips on her forehead. Didn't happen
He was gone in an instant
And I don't know how long she was standing there
Well, how can jinn or soul help in his memories?
"I forgot to ask his name again" she said with a sigh
Opening her eyes in shock, she sat down and looked around
It was an unfamiliar room, but for some reason he felt familiar with that room
No, it wasn't Jaya's room
And neither was his hostel room
But still he looked familiar to her
She slowly got down from the bed
There was light in the room and she could see clearly
That this room belonged to him, Ella's own room
How?
On one side, there was a big picture in which her whole family was also in this picture, sitting on her father's lap, she was looking at the camera smiling.
He remembered taking this picture
She was small
But he did not remember these faces
Yes, he must have felt that they were his own
His mother Abu Bhai cousins family.
She headed for the door
He reached out to open the door slowly, but it opened before he could
She panicked
But there was no one, the door had opened by itself, no one had opened it
When she came out of the room, on the right side of her room was the back of the stairs and in front of the living room was a big TV set on one side of the wall and someone was sitting on the couch.
She walked towards the couch
Whoever it was was busy humming with headphones on, his head bobbing along to the tune.
He was in his own world
As she approached him and reached out to put her hand on his shoulder
Before touching her shoulder, the man turned and threatened her with a "boo".
She screeched back and he laughed
"Oh look at your face" he stood up and was now laughing at her
She knew that face, it was him
Suddenly he stopped laughing and looked behind Ella
"Hoor" He said slowly in his voice as if he was afraid, not for himself. All of a sudden there was darkness everywhere for Hoor, the lights of the whole house were turned off
Ella turned slowly
He was a shadow. Black and part of that blackness
"Get out of here" as a hundred people told him through one person
She sat up with a shock
He looked around in fear
She was in her room. It was just a dream. Just a dream
On...
What was Zaam or Jin Zaam doing in this dream?
She did not understand
He calls Jaya
"Why are you calling at midnight?" She was asleep
"Can you give me the number of this man?" he asked quickly
"Zam's number?" It was as if she had come out of sleep
"Please..." He said softly, there was something in his voice that made Jaya take a deep breath
She cut the call by saying "Abhi behti hoon".
And two minutes later she was getting his call
One ring. Two rings. He was not picking up the call
By morning he had probably tried a hundred times
But how did that person sleep without sleep? Not picked up even once
By morning he stopped answering calls and took a deep breath
He had to do anything to talk to her
At about ten o'clock there was a call from his number
"Why weren't you picking up the call?" He asked angrily before Zam could say anything
"Dude, my mobile was on silent, what happened, are you okay?" He was looking worried
He didn't ask who are you? He didn't ask why someone was calling him in the middle of the night from an unknown number.
"I have to meet"
For a moment there was silence on both sides
"When? Where? Why?" Zaam asked him calmly taking a deep breath
"Today rather now. I am waiting in front of my hostel and I will tell you together" Today she had decided to bunk the class.
He wanted answers to his questions, even if people thought he was crazy
