Her sleepless nightmare

Erratic adventure

"One sleepless night is okay but when those nightmares are ready to crawl your dreams whenever they want is not a perfect delusion."

Where is the lamp?
I need to get home early this evening.

"Hey beans stop there..that road is not a good option. We must go with the other one there"

I said directing my finger to the other side. He protested me and pointed a good excuse for me to follow him.

"That's a short cut and ofcourse we will be perfectly fine I have been through this place before manier times plus it's not facade as you assume come on silly cat we are getting late."

Well he is practically right.

"Alright I am going because it's a short cut and you have checked upon that's why." I marked without sincerity.

"Ohh come on you scared silly. Don't show me how practical and brave you are. I know you are scared."
His accusations are not worthy of my attention so I pretended to lead on.

"Hey atleast show some manners lady." This immoral guy!!!!...is getting on my nerves if not for the petrifying road ahead I would have already chopped his head off.

"Now come and follow me" I chimmed annoyed by his loud head.

Gladly he followed behind. We were silent paying single notice to each and every movement there as for our safety we only have our bare hands so there's only one option left to escape any trouble that is run for our dear life.

I was more cautious than him maybe looking like a real scared cat that he used to pronounce me as I am. He seems more calmer than me atleast there's someone who is calm and a less cautious. I will not blame him for that besides it's his identity tho.

We rode half-a-way according to him and that's a relief to my painfully throbbing heart. I mentally prayed to get over with this route however it does not come in handy as I assumed we were being followed.

We both were attentive this time noticing each fragment of what we can see to locate the direction of the upcoming tremorous view.

We heard footsteps not far away from us my stomach twisted with fear and I was ready to beat the shit of whoever was there if it was a human. Unfortunately we heard growls of what we can assume it to be a hungry beast? or wolves? My mind rode off the state and I was unable to put myself into scheme. This voice send tremors down my spine forcing myself to shut the brain.

When we heard footsteps reaching us in full speed I was speechless and rooted to the ground not until beans pulled me to run with me but that made no different 'cause I fell over.

The next thing we heard were loud shrieking screams of a lady. We both shook in fear and bewilderment. That's it he ran off leaving me rooted to the ground I shouted for help as my leg was under a hole which made me scared for my dear life.

Somehow pulling off my shoes I ran off the road as directed by beans before. I took the turns and had a brief memory as I didn't wanted to get lost in these frightening place.

Finally I made it out of the road!!!.

I felt relieved for once contrasting my heart beats which were above the symmetrical line. I was shaking internally of how close was this.

Spotting him near the main centre of the road I noticed him shaking briefly like a toddler.

"So who is scared beans here?" I made accusation on him stating him a perfect word of words.

"Hey don't, are you alright?" He asked tremoringly. Slightly terrified to ask what happened.

"Yeah. Nevermind just go home and rest." I offered him peace from the next absurd silence.

"No let me get you to home first."
He said with worry and guilt.

"Don't you dare mister I can walk my own disaster than depending on you. You left me in the middle of that damn deserted road Remember?"
Yes I was angry with him for leaving me just like that. No-one has ever dreamt of this situation in there entire  life. Neither did I.

After a good minute scolding I left him to solace as I was getting late.

10 mins later I reached home with a flat look on my face perhaps from the scream I heard a few minutes ago was still echoing in my ears as clear as glass and ring bell.

Whatever was there it neither harmed me nor touched me infact I never get to see what was there... so why my soul is unsettled.

It seems an adventure like this is more enough for me than the horror movie. I should get rest.

"Sweety, you home?... come here, the movie you selected is about to start. We are ready with your popcorns and treats you asked for."
Mom happily mentioned before I could utter anything.

"Mom I am not in a mood besides I am really tired. I guess I will sleep."
I conveyed looking tired and messy.

"Are you sure you have been waiting for this movie since last month?"
Mom sweetly asked with a hint of worry.

"Yes mom I am tired and I will not be able to watch it till half-a-way. So you guys enjoy the movie."
I assured her with the simplest part she noticed which atleast made her relieved.

"Okay sweety. Rest well and if you need something just up with a call,  got it? She looked up with her sweet smile.

"Yeah mom." I noted with a thumbs up to cheer up the heavy air.

I took my disperse towards my room and retired myself to bed. As I feel my eyes begging me to stop and chill for some good hours.

As my focus flew off while my body relaxed and felt as light as feather and soon I was drifted to a deep slumber which intend to be peaceful at first but became spine-chilling later....
