Alyana's POV-I was sitting in the middle of the road crying while the dead body of Hamza bhai lay infront of me,covered in blood.
The horrifying sight of the firing, bullet piercing through my brother's chest,the man in black clothes pointing the gun at my brother,all these things flashed in front of my mind.
I sat there numb while my family,police and ambulance arrived.My mother was crying and the next moment i was the one to be blamed.I stood there crying and pleading to let me look at my brother for the last time but i was pushed away.
"You're a curse for our family"
Those were the last words that echoed in my ears before i woke up with a scream.
I wiped the sweat on my forehead with the back of my hand and instantly my gazed turned towards the other side of the bed,only to find it empty.
I looked at my phone it was 3 AM,quickly getting up from my bed i ran to the washroom door and unlocked it.
He was not there,I stood infront of the washroom mirror and looked at my dishevelled state.
"Those nightmares....it's happening again...that night,that man,blood,gunshots,an...and Hamza bhai laying dead on the ground.Why...why is it happening again?"
I splashed water on my face to wipe the tears that were rolling down from my cheeks."It's good that Aslan is not here,if he would have seen me in this state then i wouldn't have been able to answer him"
I walked out of the washroom and moved towards my bed. I tripped over the carpet and i was about to fall when my hands griped the table beside my bed.
The flower vase fell down on the floor and in few seconds the door of our room flew open with Aslan almost running inside.
"What happen angel?Are u hurt?I heard some noise coming from the room" he asked making me sit on the bed.
I drank the whole glass of water he gave me."Where were you at this hour of night?" I asked
"I was in the study,i had to complete some work.You should have called me when you woke up" he said caressing my hair.
He was in the next room only that means he would have also heard my scream...or maybe not."Angel,say something you're scaring me,are you okay?" he asked cupping my face
"Yes..yes I'm okay,i went to the washroom and while coming back i tripped over the carpet so the flower vase fell by mistake when i tried to hold it for support" I said gulping the lump forming in my throat.
"You're not hurt right? Are you?" he asked looking at me from head to toe.
I shook my head and he made me lay down on the bed."Sleep baby,we have a flight in the morning " i nodded while he got inside the blanket beside me.
I drifted to sleep with his arms holding me protectively giving me the comfort zone I've always needed.

We were on our way to the airport.My head was resting on Aslan's shoulders while he massaged my head lightly.
I was wearing a white plazo kaftan dress and Aslan was wearing a white shirt and black trousers.We were twinning because i chose the same colour clothes for him and he smiled looking at how happy i was when i was clicking our pictures
