Story of an Orphan Girl. ✔️

40. Sense of Relief.

Sandhya Pov

I saw an empty corridor. It seems familiar. Yes it's my school's corridor but what am I doing here? And why it's empty?

I have never seen this corridor empty ever in my entire school life. I shrugged my shoulders in confusion and kept on walking forward.

"Hello! Is there anyone?", I shouted expecting a reply in return.

I heard some faded noise coming out of a classroom as if someone is murmuring.

I move closer to that room and noticed that the gate is locked.

I knocked twice and the door opened ajar revealing Riddhi and Lily standing infront of me.

Both of them are holding guns in their hands and pointed it on me.

I gulped being scared and stumbled backward in nervousness.

'Please don't kill me.', I begged.

'Ha..ha..ha..ha..ha..ha..'

Both of them laughed dangerously like a psychotic person.

'Ha..ha..ha..ha..ha..ha..'

The voices of their laughter pierced through by eardrums making my head throbbed in pain.

'Ha..ha..ha..ha..ha..ha..'

I blocked my ears using my palms and shook my head in denial.

'Nooooooo! Please. Don't. Kill. Me.', I screamed my lungs out.

'Please don't kill me.', I cried.

"Twinny."

"Please don't kill me."

"Twinny wake up."

"Don't kill me."

"No one will kill you. You are safe. It's just a bad dream Twinny. Wake up."

I felt a harsh jerk on my body and opened my eyes abruptly.

"I don't want to die.", I said absent mindedly.

Sonia engulfed me in her tight embrace and rubbed my back up and down using her palm.

"Everything is fine. You are okay.", She said softly in order to calm me down.

I looked around and realised that I was dreaming. It's was just a bad dream. I closed my eyes and hugged her back.

Yesterday's incident has somehow traumatised my mind and this horrible dream is the impact of that trauma.

I don't know how long that incident will haunt my dream. I am glad that today Sonia is here with me to console my disturbed mind or else I would have end up crying miserable in tears.

"Are you fine?", She enquired.

I nodded my head in approval and broke our hug.
