Chapter 4

Vishwesh was an avid blogger. He after making a customary weekend post, opened the search column of blogger and searched for Shankar and Karthik. This was just for fun as he knew the two of them didn't write blogs. Then he searched for Shalini Bhargava. Shalini was on Blogger. So he just proceeded to read the blog. The latest post read, 'THE DEATH'. This freaked Vishwesh out. He went through the previous posts and realised Shalini had a friend called Shwetha. She hadn't actually been a friend in the sense of the word. They were arch rivals, but said by the posts like they were yin and yang, arch rivals who couldn't actually live without one another.

He didn't know what to make of Shwetha, a friend of Shalini's or an enemy. The latest post talked about Shwetha expired in Lahore, due to certain terrorist attacks which happened in the city a couple of days ago. Shalini actually seemed freaked out with that.

Vishwesh immediately called Shalini, asked her to come to the college main park. They went on a walk, where he seemed to console Shalini. She seemed freaked out with the whole idea of Shwetha's death. She couldn't take a bit of it. All she was doing was sobbing. Vishwesh tried, and partially succeeded, but then the loss of someone she knew pretty well took quite a toll on her.

It was seeming pretty sad for her right here. After giving her a long chat, Vishwesh walked back to the home. He was waiting for the next time he would talk to Shankar to tell him the matter he had got to know today.

Sunday came, and so did the call from Tasmania. Shankar was chatting funnily with Vishwesh for a while, when suddenly the whole tone of the conversation became serious.
Vishwesh: I got something important to tell you.
Shankar: I got something important to tell you too.
Vishwesh: Its about Shalini.
Shankar: This is about Shalini too.
Vishwesh: The past is to be revisited.
Shankar: Here too.
Vishwesh(baffled):Maraindhirukkum marumam enna?
