"Aku, where are you? Don't- come- he-it- Late!"

"Arey, just 5 more minutes and I will be there!" A girl said to the person on the other side of the line. "Maa, I will head out to the park now!" she said with her voice filled with love and adoration for her mother.

This is Akruti, the eldest child of Ahaan and Sunaina. Akruti from childhood had always adored her parents, she views them as her guidance and light, and her parents had never given her wrong advice. She always follows their every command, since most are for her benefits only.

"Aku, take care of yourself" Her mother Sunaina replied from the couch. "Yes Aku, today the weather is also a little cloudy take an umbrella" her father chimed in from the kitchen. "I will come back soon!" she said not knowing that it will be the last time she sees them or will it?

-----------------------------

With a pink umbrella in hand she moved in the direction of the park where her best friend would surely be waiting and would whine about her being late as soon as she saw her.

While her foe was still in daze she quickly tried to get away, with blood gushing from her wound. Unfortunately, her injury rendered her incapable of running faster. She soon started feeling lightheaded, with no sense of direction she swayed for 10 minutes, hearing footsteps behind her panicked her, she tried to run but her body seemed to be disobeying her mind slowly she started consciousness, the only thing on her mind was that she at least got to say a goodbye to her family members. "Ah shit, what a waste! She is already dead. Would have made a good amount in the village area, but what can we do-Who hit me?!" she heard a man's voice this. "I did, you little bitch!" A familiar voice shouted, but no reaction was seen in Aku's body, the voices slowly started fading.
