Haridwar, India 10.30 pm
As I strolled through the streets of my neighbourhood I looked at the sky and thought about my life and sighed another day of my boring life ending just like all things
I looked at the screen of my phone and smiled well the only thing which can give me solace in my life is my hidden app filled with some dark material looking at the photo of the girl on the screen I was a little aroused but well I was on the streets so I closed the app
"Should I call her, Nah I don't think she would want that she should be happy living in another state," I thought and looked at the screen of my phone to check the time.
"It's time to go home" I walked as I thought about college which will be starting next week.
"Ha I hope everything goes alright," I thought about how I had to join a college with an education loan even though I am a millionaire.
I can't reveal the amount of money I had. Because they will certainly ask where the money came from and because of legal issues.
"Tch, living a double life is very difficult "I sighed
As I listen to the hustle of the streets It's still lively at night here.
I opened the door of my house and looked inside basically a 2-room set to which my father has to spend half of his salary to rent every month.
I walked towards the fridge and opened it and placed the milk packet inside.
After which I walked towards my bed and my mom called me "Daemon can you come over here"
"Ya coming" I walked towards the kitchen
"Give me the phone I need to call someone" I returned the phone and got to my bed.
It is very risky considering what will happen if my dark deeds on that phone leak.
Well, it's just some nudes for my fun here nothing compared to other data in my apartments.
Well, maybe I will find some more thrills in jail.
Just kidding who in the right mind will wanna go there
He must be a psycho or something.
"Well I think you can consider yourself one," my other self said I rolled my eyes.
"ya right" Well it is not much dangerous considering most of the time my phone is with me because I have to stay alone at home because my mom is not a housewife and the phone is not allowed in the corporation.
I was certainly lucky well I have been lucky my whole life in some aspects such as my dark deeds for which I have never been caught.
I was bored so I decided to do some pushups to get myself tired so I can sleep. It's my daily routine to do pushups at night before sleep, I don't know why, even though I go to the gym after that I take a shower and then sleep not to brag or something I have a very good physic.
After doing 3 sets of 50 pushups, situps and some crunches, with a 3 min plank which is hell for me I got up to take a shower.
During the shower, I heard the voice again
"Please don't say those things again," I said with a sigh I knew what he was gonna say.
the voice started telling me to just get it over and stop acting like a model person for society.
"why are you acting like that huh," the voice said
"stop"
"We both know who you are, so stop acting like a fool ".
He was certainly right about that so but I didn't want to continue to argue with myself so
I sighed, as I said "What do you want"coldly
"You know we are going to join college next week so many fresh meals, "he said with a creepy voice
" You know we are over eighteen now and it will not be considered a mistake now"
"Don't worry it will be fine don't you remember how fun it was last time you blackmailed her"
"I won't blackmail anyone this time " "What! Why! Are you fucking with me" he exclaimed
"I will not do it the old way but we will find another way," I said as I smile which is a grin
"you! Hahaha, I knew it we are one person huh," The voice said
I knew he was right about that thing we are the same person considering we think mostly alike coming out of the bathroom and after drying myself after lying on the bed
I remembered how it all started, I felt a pang in my heart, and I sighed I still can't forget that.
Looks like it was just yesterday I was always a good student with the potential to be the first in my class during school from kindergarten the only thing stopping me was my writing which is very bad and they deduct marks for writing still my memory was remarkable for a child.
we lived on the outskirts of the capital of the state at that time it was not a very good place even though it was near the capital it was more of a village but considering my father's financial status it was good I studied in a school which was the best in the local area I was around 9 years at that time.
I was a very curious kid at that time but I had a secret I never told anyone not even my parents, fearing that they would think of me as someone with brain problems or psycho.
I could hear a voice in my head. It all started when the bully in my class started making fun of me because of my long hair he started calling me a girl although he never got physical so it was tolerable I didn't want to tell my parents because my bully Simon was a rich kid and I didn't wanna disturb them so I didn't say anything.
Why did I have long hair at that time there was some ritual in the family where I couldn't have a haircut before I became 10 years old it was hell for me in school.
He got the perfect reason for bullying me. One day During lunch it looks like he was pissed at something that day as he pushed me out of nowhere unluckily for me behind me was a rose garden and I fell into it
It hurts really with little spikes in my butt and arms seeing me like that he started to run I don't know what came over me at that time but something was fuelling my anger as I got up with little spikes around my body and picked up a decent sized rock and threw at him
Luckily for him because he was running the stone only hit his leg and he fell on his butt and started crying
By the time some senior students came and called the teacher we were taken to the infirmary where he and I were treated the teacher was scolding me but my attention was somewhere else
I thought about the whole ordeal it's not like me to hit someone
"Hey are you listening" "Ha yes teacher"
"Honestly I am disappointed in you, I thought you were better," he said looking at me disappointingly.
I lowered my head and clenched my fist why was he not scolding him I looked at Simon, my bully.
I don't know why I saw something unfamiliar in his eyes is that what they called fear was I scary or something
I looked in the mirror of the infirmary and saw my eyes I knew why Simon was scared they were cold as ice and I realized I never cried the whole time even though it hurts like hell
"Now go and rest," the teacher said
After we were told to rest in the infirmary until school time ends I walked towards the bed to take a little nap.
After the bell rang I woke up and walked out of the infirmary it still hurts a little in my butt but now it is bearable as I looked inside It looks like Simon is already gone I don't know how but well his problem
I walked towards my bus entering I came to the back seat and sat down I was looking outside the window as a senior walked towards me with a girl
"Can you sit anywhere else?" He said like ordering me.
"Okay senior," I said as I moved toward another seat, normally, the same person always comes to take my seat if I sit at the back of the bus
After I reached the stop which was my mom's friend's house I walked towards her house my mom would pick me up from there.
"Daemon why are you in a hurry" I heard a cute voice behind me as I turned around a little surprised.
"Did your bus arrive early today? Arya" I asked her and took a look at her she has dark brown hair with caramel skin colour she is a cute girl.
"Ya today my bus came with the same route as yours" said Arya catching up with me.
"let's go" she said I took a good look at her we were of the same age she was one month younger than me as our mothers were best friends. we are in the same school but in a different section,
we didn't have time to meet at school because at school everything is separate for boys and girls until 5th class.
"ya coming," I said with a yelp because of a little smack on the head.
" hey where are you both going without me "I heard a girl's voice behind me as I rubbed my head.
" big sis what are you doing, "I said as I looked at her, her name is Preeti she should be around 15 years with shoulder-length black hair with black eyes and white skin she should be considered above average in terms of beauty.
" well why didn't you wait for me, "she said with a smirk she enjoys bullying me.
" Okay sis don't hit daemon again let's go," said Arya saving me from her as we got to her house I was told by an aunt to wait till my mom comes I sat on the bed as both sisters got to another room to change and suddenly I heard a voice.
"Hey, it was fun right" "Who! " I freaked out and jumped off the bed.
"Is there a problem Aryan?" Aunt said
"Aunty I heard a voice" I said a little terrified of ghosts but Aunty laughed.
"There is no such thing as that daemon Maybe you are tired and I know about your fight at school Preeti told me everything" Aunty said a little sternly as I was a little scared of what would happen if my parents were to know of that.
"don't worry I won't tell them about this fight but promise me to never do that again," the aunt said
" I promise " "Good now just say that those injuries from playing cricket are okay"
"Okay," I said after Aunty returned.
"so pathetic" the cold voice again sounded in my head.
I was about to scream again but
" Shut up will you, I am not a ghost, " the voice said
"Who are you," I asked still a little afraid
"We are both one you and me I am your inner voice and you can talk to me in your mind" the voice answered.
"I am like your partner and I can teach you things no one can but of course at a certain price," the voice said coldly.
By the time I was a little calm so I asked
"what things and how and what is the price is there anybody else who can hear you"I asked in my mind
" I can teach you many things you will know in the future you just have to listen to me "the voice said a little excitement leaking from his cold voice
" As for the price don't worry your happiness is my happiness I just want to be happy "said the voice with coercion.
" Why should I trust you I am going to tell my aunt about you, "I said.
"hmm you can go and tell her but don't you know what she will think about you they all will think you have mental problems and they will send you to the mental hospital like in the movies," he said
I was scared again now I started to think.
"Okay but I don't trust you and don't disturb me while I am with someone else," I said
"Okay," he said and we both fell silent
"Daemon come here let's go home " I heard my mother's voice.
"Yes Mom" I ran towards the gate and looked at my mother 29 years dark brown hair brown eyes white skin and height of 5'8 I am lucky that I got more of her side of jeans that is why I am cute right now even looks like more of a girl because of my long hair.
Because if I got my father's been I would not be much happy he is really lucky in this arranged marriage which is common in many villages
After I got home taking a shower after which I ate some food and got to study as nighttime quickly arrived I was going to sleep after dinner but...
