Chapter 4 - Trust?

Everyone is now smiling and the atmosphere in the room is a lot better.

Shivansh: Anyway, today you will be sleeping with me.

Shiva: Nope.

Shivansh and Aryan: Come on, sleep with us today.

Shiva: Nope. I don't trust you guys.

Aryan: Don't worry we won't do anything~~~ weird. Ok?

Shiva: Nope

Shivansh and Aryan: Please~~~

Shiva:... Ahhh, fine. But only if we have a pizza party.

Shivansh and Aryan: Deal

Shivansh orders pizza and cold drinks.

Meanwhile Aryan as their senior pays for it. All of them enjoy the delicacy without worry about paying back. Cuz for them if one of them had money then all of them had money. There was absolute trust btw them or was it.

As they continue to play around with each other for who knows how long because for them time had lost it's meaning. They were simply enjoying each other's company. After playing wild games like sparring, battle Royal games and so on for who knows how long. Aryan finally checks the time.

Aryan: Guys, I think we should sleep. We played around a bit too much. It's already wayyy past midnight. It's 3:57 right now.

Shiva: Ok. It's not like I am gonna sleep. You guys will probably sleep but I am gonna play open world exploration games. It's solo games time.

Shivansh: I honestly wonder who that phone of his handlea those heavy games. Cuz ours starts lagging at even low end games.

Aryan: Forget it. Let's go to sleep.

Aryan, Shiva and Shivansh: Good night.

Aryan goes to his room which is just next to the room they played in. And Shiva was gonna sleep in Shivansh's room. Since it had to seperate beds they both layed down in the bed. And started using their phones. But soon the phones were turned off. Shivansh was ready to sleep and Shiva was listening to music.

Shivansh:* Finally it's time to sleep. Let's remember everything that happened today for good measures to ensure that I don't forget anything. We went to classes in chemistry the first class we studied about biomolecules and polymers, in the second class.... Ahh which subject was it? ... Yes. Physics we studied about weak nuclear forces and finally in the third class we studied about definite and indefinite integragion. After that we studied more using online videos. After I think 6-7 hours of studying together. Aryan came back and we played ever since then. This reminds of Shiva's Trauma... Damn that was one hell of a experience. I never thought that he had so much going on. Yet he always smiles like there's no problem in the world. He seems more careless then anyone I have seen. He especially seems so energetic all the time, more then anyone I have ever seen.... Yet even though all that for the first time.... In all that time today was the first day he seemed human. He wasn't able to perfectly hide his pain. Even when speaking about all that made him sad. *

Shiva:* Phew today was one heck of a day. I did not think that Shivansh would ask me about my trauma. Luckily I am used to telling others about my story from a third person's perspective. So it wasn't hard. And since I am kinda disconnected it doesn't even hurt to remember about all that stuff. Unless I remember the specifics that is. But I can easily avoid all that.... Ahhh.... Of course I can. I am Shiva..... That's what I do. And people have it worse then me..... For now I am confused about my feelings. Do I trust them or not? I never trusted anyone. I just read through a person like a book and calculated what they would do. And I trusted the conclusion I came at. But today was different, Shivansh asking me about my trauma was unexpected. So what is it that I feel? I trust them? But I also don't trust them? How does that work? For some reason I know that I am still the same guy who doesn't care if his friends die and it's the same with these guys. Yet,I trust them. How does that work? I don't care yet I trust them? When was the last time I did something like a human. But still..... This feeling.... It... Hurts? .... What's this? Shouldn't trusting be more sweet like feeling? Yet why do I feel like trusting them hurts? It's feels like spike stabbing me from the inside..... Why can't I trust someone? Fuckkkk.... I can't even show any sort of expression cuz Shivansh is next to me. I can't let him see me. So I need to hide everything..... Yes... Everything.... Like always.... That's just what I will do.... Anyway..... I am gonna sleep now*

Shivansh:* Is Shiva sleeping? *

He secretly checks whether Shiva is sleeping or not. And avoids making any noise possible.

Shivash:* Yup, he is sleeping.... How can this guy sleep like nothing happenen? Every normal person usually cries. So, why not him? Well.... He always tells us that he is unique.... But is this what he means? It can't be but that sounds like the most logical explanation. But he opened up to us a bit. Even if it was only a little. This was the first time I saw him makia different expression other then smiling and laughing... Ahhh.... Shivansh snap back to reality..... What you need to know is that he trusts us. Anyway I am feeling sleepy. Go...od ni..ight.*

What is it that Shiva really feels? Why does it hurt to trust them? How does he know what it feels like to trust someone? Endless questions. One person. What other mysteries can a kid like him can have. From what I know there are endless possibilities. Let's wait and see what the kid is hiding in the true depth of his mind. We still have a previous mystery from the past chapter. At the end of the past he sayed something about, " Can you guys stop looking at me like that" I wonder who was he talking to? As the only person there, his roommate was asleep. Was it us? Or was it someone hidden from us? I wonder who are those people.
