Chapter 59: Chapter 59

Rhino was singing. Everyone listened to him. Towards the end of the song, the crowd suddenly swelled. Applause and whistles erupted all around. Everyone started shouting Rhino's name. Rhino was unable to see Calista due to overcrowding. He was trying to raise his head to see and see her. But he was not seeing anything. Rhino started to worry a little. Somehow he finished the song and hurriedly ran off the stage. But as soon as he came down, he got surrounded. Everyone surrounded Rhino to take a selfie. He was feeling a lot of irritation. Because of them, he couldn't go to Calista. Rhino somehow pushed through the crowd and went out. He ran where Calista was sitting and saw that Calista was not there. Suddenly Rhino's heart stiffened. He was looking here and there trying to find Calista. But nothing can be seen due to overcrowding.

Rhino thought to himself, "Maybe she has gone to Ezlyn and the others."

Rhino ran towards where Ezlyn, Harold, Rosalie and Edith were sitting. Coming to Ezlyn, Rhino could not see her here either.

Rhino looked at the four of them and asked, "Where is Calista? Have you guys seen her?"

Hearing Rhino, everyone raised their eyebrows and looked at him.

Edith stood up and said worriedly, "What do you mean by where is Calista? She was with you. I saw both of you coming together."

Rhino said, "Yes, she was with me. As soon as I got here, I had to go on stage. So I told her to come and sit with all of you. But Calista could not come near you, so she sat at the back. I'm looking now and she's not there. So I thought she must have come to all of you, right?"

Ezlyn said in a very worried tone, "Rhino, Calista did not come here."

Rhino's thoughts were now turning into fear. Because of some unknown reason, Rhino's chest was in great fear.

He said in a trembling voice, "She did not come, mean? Where will she go without coming here?"

Understanding Rhino's condition, Edith told him to reassure him, "Hey, don't worry. Maybe she is somewhere around. Call her, only then will you know where she is."

Rhino nodded his head and said yes to Edith's words. He quickly took out the phone and dialed Calista's number. Her phone was ringing but she was not answering the phone. In this way, the call ended, but Calista's phone was not received. Rhino's fear increased. His throat was dry. With a dry throat, he called her number again. Even after giving her a call four or five times, her phone was not received. Rhino was restlessly pulling his hair with one hand and calling Calista's number with the other hand.

"Pick up, pick up. Pick up the phone, damn it."

Rhino looked at everyone with a scared look and said, "She is not receiving the phone."

Rhino's words got everyone else worried.

Edith looked at Rhino and said, "Hey, maybe Calista can't hear the ringtone of the phone with so much noise. Or she can also go to the washroom. Don't worry too much. We all do one thing. Let's separate and look around for her. Surely someone will get her."

Then he looked at Ezlyn and said again, "You go and look into the ladies washrooms."

Ezlyn nodded her head hearing Edith. Rhino was trying to understand his mind in Edith's words.

"Edith is right. Maybe she is here somewhere around. I'll get her right away."

Although Rhino was trying to calm his mind with these seven five, he did not find peace until he saw her. As Edith said, everyone started looking around for Calista. Ezlyn and Rosalie were checking all the ladies washrooms in the campus. Edith and Harold were looking around the stage. And Rhino was frantically searching all the classrooms and calling Calista's number again and again. Hoping that any moment she will answer the phone and say hello in her sweet voice. And he will breathe a sigh of relief. But no, nothing like that was happening. After about half an hour, everyone gathered again in the field. There was a look of disappointment on everyone's face. Because none of them could find Calista.

Rhino ran to them and said restlessly, "What happened? You must have found Calista, right? Please tell me, you have found her."

Edith shook his head with a disappointed expression and uttered, "None of us got her."

Edith's words started ringing in Rhino's ears again and again. His hands and feet are paralyzed with fear. His heart was beating fast in thought of something bad had happened to Calista. He felt like he wasn't able to breathe.

He pulled his hair with both hands and slowly moved one step at a time looking around and said in an unusual way, "What do you mean you didn't get her? Where did Calista go then? How can a person disappear in such a short time? Does the sky eat her or is she swallowed by the ground?"

Then he kicked a chair in the back and yelled, "How can she get lost in a minute? How?"

Edith went ahead and put his hand on Rhino's neck and said, "Relax Rhi. You don't need to be so hyper. It may also be possible that she has gone home. Maybe she didn't have time to inform us. You know how the people in her house are. Maybe she left without telling us because of her stepmother's fear. Maybe she is not picking up the phone because she is busy with other work."

Rhino saw a glimmer of hope in Edith's words.

Rhino looked at Ezlyn and said, "You know where Calista's house is, right? Let's go to her house right away."

Ezlyn said, nodding her head, "Okay let's go."

Rhino looked at Edith and said, "Edith, you keep searching for her again on campus. And yes, get on the stage and make an announcement on the mic. I am going to Calista's house with Ezlyn."

Edith nodded her head and said, "Okay, you go. We are watching over here. You don't worry."

Harold said, "Rhino, I am also going with you. You are not in your mind right now. I will drive the car."

Rhino nodded his head. Then the three of them hurriedly took the car and left for Calista's house. Rhino was just praying in the car.

"When we get to Calista's house, please be her at home. If something happens to her, I myself will not survive. Calista is mixed with my breath. It is impossible for me to survive without her." Rhino was praying silently.

After a while they came in front of Calista's house. As soon as the car stopped, Rhino hurriedly got down. Then Harold and Rhino followed Ezlyn towards Calista's house. Rhino's chest was pounding heavily.

He was always asking God for one thing, "May her stay at home."

All of Rhino's hopes were dashed as soon as he reached the door of Calista's house. Seeing the lock hanging on the door of her house, the ground shook from under Rhino's feet. Rhino holds the lock with a shaky hand.

"That means Calista didn't come home either. So where did my love go? Where can I find her now? Is she in any danger? No one did anything wrong with my love?"

Rhino's body seemed to be paralyzed thinking about this. Unable to keep his balance, Rhino was about to fall when Harold came running and grabbed him by the shoulder.

Then Harold said, "Rhino, handle yourself. Don't be so broken. We need to find Calista. Be strong. Let's go to campus. She must be somewhere on there. We will get her. Don't worry."

Rhino ran towards the car without saying a word. Harold and Ezlyn also followed him. All three got into the car and hurried back to the campus. Arriving at the university, Rhino got out of the car and ran inside.

He went to Edith and asked whether he found Calista or not. Rhino was once again disappointed after hearing Edith's reply. Nothing comes to his mind.

He dried himself a little and looked at Editd, "Let's go to the security room. We can check the CCTV footage and can find out whether Calista went outside the campus or not."
