We got checked in the most coolest hotel in that area, it was so big and marvelous!

Girls were given the 1st floor and boys were given the 3rd floor. Lia and I shared the same room. The room was really incredible! It was so nice with its master bed, closet, dressing table and my favorite; huge bay windows perfect to see the waterfalls!

We were scheduled to reach the waterfalls tomorrow. Today we totally spent our time in roaming around the hotel, gardens, taking pictures and the best of all,

Camp firing!!!

It looked so nice to have a camp fire with the whole class. Like a total of 50 of us?

"Now who is gonna sing?" Mr. Alex asked.

We all exchanged glances and shouted, "You! You!"

He started to get embarrassed. Then due to our compulsion, he agreed.

He took his guitar, cleared his throat, plucked the strings to check it, and then he started to sing something

And that's where we made our biggest mistake! His singing was really bad and we could not tolerate. We were waiting impatiently for him to end the song and before he could say 'Thank you' for finishing, we quickly gave a big applause.

All we wanted is to end the song and save our ears.

"How was my singing?" he asked us.

"Sir, it was very nice, must be a French song!" one of my student commented.

"French song?" the teacher asked in confusion.

"It was Love me like you do!" he replied.

What! He killed? No buried the song. We tried our best to control our laughter but anyway he is our teacher.

"Anyone else wanna try?" the he asked again.

"I'm in a pretty good mood, if no one comes forward, then I'll sing another song!" he said.

No! This should not happen. But none of us offered to sing. I was looking at Lia, she shook her head no. I saw Mike; he was sitting opposite to me in the circle. I think he was feeling bored. He was stretching his arms for ease. But the teacher mistook him for volunteering,

"Yes, Mike! I am happy that you volunteered to sing!" he appreciated him happily.

"But... Sir... I din't" he was stammering.
I was suppressing my laughter. Soon everyone cheered for him calling his name. He looked at me in confusion; I just gave him a thumbs up.

He smiled and agreed to sing. He asked for the guitar. Then he took the position and began to sing, one of my favorite songs. Perfect things' (one direction.) I was shocked to see him sing,

So beautifully!

I heared him singing yesterday and I was already half done with that and now I'm literally dead!

Seriously guys!

His voice was so blissful.
I could not take my eyes off him; well not only me but the entire crowd. He was just singing with feel. He was of course,

Melting my heart!

He lifted up his head, looked at me with a smile and sang the last line,

"I'm in love with you...And all your little things!"

I held my hand against my heart; it was beating so fast that it can explode at any time. I could very well see the tiny hairs on my hands standing errect like soldiers.

I was trying to relax. There was a huge applause for him, everyone started to shout and congratulate him.

"Why he has to sing it looking at me?" My mind kept pondering.

Of course there's nothing fishy in it! He was sitting right opposite to me so of course when he lifts his head;

Tada! I'm the one who will be first visible to him.

Logic matters!

Later that night after dinner we were ordered to go back into our rooms. Mr. Alex want us to maintain a good profile about our school and he's really scared that the things we do would end up in no more school entries in this hotel.

"Mina, Lisa and her roommate asked me to accompany them; they are going to watch a movie!" Lia said to me with excitement.
"You're coming?" she asked me.

"No, I am not interested!" I replied back.
I'm usually not a morning person, if I'm awake till late night I will surely miss my trip to Niagara tomorrow.

"I may not be able to come back to room again at night, is that okay for you to stay back alone?" she asked me.

I thought for a while. All alone in such a big room at night? But anyway I just nodded.
She left and I was reading my Percy Jackson novel.

After sometime there was a knock at the door, I went to see who it was.

"Mike what are you doing here?" I asked him.

"Shh... Rachel and her friends are looking for me, I wanted to escape from them" he whispered.

"So?" I asked him.

"Can you please let me hide in your room for some time?" he asked me.

"What! No way, it's late!" I replied to him firmly.

"Please minion! Please don't say No!" he pleaded.

"Alright!" I just gave an eye roll and asked him to enter.

"Only for 5 minutes" I yelled as he was searching a better place for his big foots to hide.

"Please manage them, if they ask you!" he said and hurried into the washroom for hiding.

"What..?"

Suddenly there was a knock again at the door.

It was Rachel and her two friends.

"Mina, don't waste my time and answer my question fast. Did you see Mike anywhere?" she asked me blowing her newly painted nails, with that never ending drama queen gesture.

"No, I din't see him." I replied to her at once.

She started to hit glares at me,

Terrific glares indeed!

"Don't lie now!" she said banging my room door.

"Look, what is the point in lying to you?" I asked her not angrily but feeling sorry for her, how much ever make-up she wears her stupid anger is enough to vaporize them.

"Fell free to check my room" I added.

Usually if you say things with more confidence the person believes you.

And I was really shocked to see that this trick is not working on her but rather...

"That's a good idea, move!" she pushed me aside and cat-walked into my room.

I'm just enough to kill myself! No one needs to do that task!

I din't expect that from her.

My heart was skipping beats, her friends waited outside, so I thought it would be fine to just manage with this one bit*h.

She peeped through every single corner and spacing between the walls and the doors.

Pushing away the curtains and even under the bed.

Why is she searching him so much? Poor guy!

Then she enters into the washroom,

"Rachel you're going out of limits! Leave my room! Now!" I was raising my voice at her.

"My doubts are not yet over sweetheart!" she said in a husky tone.

She then started to eye at every corner at the room and there was just one place left in the washroom unchecked now,

Is the cupboard!

She made her way to the cupboard and instantly pulled the knobs at once,
I closed my eyes in fear, I was sure he was going to get caught!

But no! He was not there, she kept her hands swimming between the pre- stuffed clothes which was hanging there.

If not here then where did he go?

Just then one of her friend's voice went yelling from the door

"Rachel come fast!"

Rachel hurried out,

"Rachel, the boy standing at the end of this corridor, I think he is Mike!" she said.

Rachel's eyes narrowed at that far figure and said,

"I think it's him, he is not in Mina's room!" she said after giving me a complete stare.

I just gave and eye roll,
"Your doubts clear; now leave!" I said and banged the door against their faces.

I was quiet for some time and after making sure these girls left the place, I started to call for Mike.

No chance for him to get out of this room but where is he? This guy has super powers? Is he a hollow man?
