Enigmatic Darkness

Chapter 6 - Intensity

It was a new day but the drama of last day had to reach the climax today. Abhay entered, halting everyone's activity.

He looked at Panchi who was throwing daggers towards him. As he stepped towards her, T came in between them. He looked away not even wanting to see her face.

"Hi am T! president of this drama club, welcome" T forwarded her hand

Abhay ignored her like he did on first day and walked towards Panchi much to T anger.

"You are the director, right?" Abhay said "you have problem with me?"

"Not only her, we all have problem from you" Kabir answered entering the club

"Don't talk behind my back. If you dare then face me." Abhay said without turning towards him

"Do you think am afraid of you?" Kabir smirked

Kabir stood in front of him face to face.

"Heard that Raichands have bought half of the property of Dehradun but never knew that management was in the list. Kitne par khareeda princi ko?" Kabir asked

"Mere bare mai kafi information h tum logon ko" Abhay said with smug smile

"by the way who the hell are you?" Abhay said calmly

"Am Kabir Singh Rathod, the good guy" Kabir said

"Huh good guy! Khud ko bta rhe ho ya inhe yakeen dila rhe ho apni jhooti tareef se" Abhay smiled

Kabir was enraged. He walked towards him, Abhay too walked towards him dangerously but before they could do anything Panchi came in between.

"Stop it guys" Panchi said separating the two

Panchi walked towards Piya. She gave her the bundle of papers.

"Here Piya take the script and go on stage, perform your lines with both the actors and then we shall decide who will play Romeo after casting the vote" Panchi explained her strategy to get over the problem named Abhay Raichand

"Is that okay Mr Raichand? And if you lose then you'll yourself withdraw from the play" Panchi looked at Abhay sharply

"I'll make it easy for you. I don't want anyone's votes. You are the director and you have problem from me so you'll decide who is better " Abhay said calmly

"And why do you think I'll choose you instead of my favourite actor?" Panchi raised her eyebrow

"Because its not about favourite but who is better" Abhay said with head held high

"I know you'll choose me" Abhay looked at her confidently

Panchi looked at him trying to understand what's going in his mind but well no one can understand that.

"He can perform first, by the way!" Abhay said taking a place for himself in the far end

Sighing, Panchi gestured Kabir to perform first not wanting to start another war on who should perform first, knowing well about Kabir's ego who wouldn't bear being dictated by Abhay to perform first, considering his hateful gaze directed towards the new guy.

Kabir glared Abhay and silently walked on the stage with a confidence.

Piya performed with Kabir and everyone cheered completely enjoying Kabir's acting.

Abhay stood up for his turn. He and Kabir looked at each other challengingly.

"don't you want your lines?" Panchi asked as Abhay walked on the stage without asking for script
