"What's this?" She was terrified at The unfolded scene in front of her eyes. "How's it possible!" She ignored her suspicions once she came there for interview and saw that picture in the office. But now it was overwhelming to see the room filled with her pictures with different people.

"This is not me. I can't be." She shook her head violently trying to deny what was there.

'Never tell anyone about who you really are. Because we don't know if your enemies were your family or someone else. And call from that hospital tells someone suspicious came to the hospital asking about her many times. That means they were still looking for her even after several years.'

She still remembered the words his father told her. That could be dangerous for her if she stayed there.

"I want to get out of here. I should leave this place as soon as possible." She murmured to herself, shaking with terror.

"Hello Kamal! I'm leaving here, come to the gate immediately! I don't want to stay here anymore." She called him and asked him to pick her.

" what happened! Is everything okay?" He tried to say that but she cut the call and looked at her surroundings. Holding her purse tight and enveloping herself in her dupatta as to hide her side face. She looked around frantically feeling as if the walls were shrinking, that was a suffocating feeling.

"I'll be out of here, just after a moment. Don't panic!" She was whispering to herself to soothe her nerves.

Taking a few deep breaths, she opened the door and looked out through the crack. There was no one in front. Walking quickly and quietly she came to the stairs. Safi was not there.

She looked towards the front door of the hall instead of the backdoor opening towards the lawn where they were holding the party.

It was dark on this side. This part was deserted at that time. She closed the door to the hall feeling a chill run down her spine and went out. The security guard was surprised to see her coming out of this early but shook his head and allowed her to go. Kamal was there with his bike. She quickly got on the bike and tapping on his shoulder gave the signal to start the bike.

"What happened out there? You are out so quickly. I was with my friend we met after a long time but for you I've to leave early." He whined starting the bike with a 'grrr' sound and soon they left the area. When she didn't even made a sound he too shut his mouth.

They were standing on the cross bridge. Cold wind was blowing. Their elbows resting on the metal boundary till their waist, leaning forward a little and eyes were focused on the cars passing under the bridge honking horns, catching speed, heading to their destination.

"I have been looking for an answer to my dreams I'm having for a long time. I was unaware of the people I was seeing but today I actually saw them. They happen to be the reltives of that girl whose name is Amy. A boy who cares for her a lot and she accepts him. A mischievous kid always by her side, an old woman, she pampers the girl and so on... They call her Amy. She has another name. Eman. But except it I don't know anything."

She was telling him in a low voice and then stopped. He turned his attention to her resting his back and elbows by the metallic boundary of the bridge and then fixed his eyes on her face who was lost in her thoughts.

"Continue!" He said irritated at the long pause she took. She chuckled lightly rolling her eyes at his impatient behavior. Then said,

"And when I went to that company for the jobs interview, they were shocked as they saw me for the first time. It was like If they have seen a ghost!" She exclaimed.

"Were they afraid? Seeing you?" He asked curiously.

"Nope! With excitement! I'm sure that was excitement. Because beneath the shock in their eyes there was a happiness, their eyes were gleaming as they were wandering in darkness and now they have seen a light giving them a new hope to live. Or in a world of strangers they have seen someone close or beloved." She smiled sadly.

"Then how could you call yourself a ghost?" He said in a light funny tone and she released a laughter showing her teeth, eyes flashing with the light of cars passing by. She knew he was doing it to make her relaxed.

"I can. Because when someone come in front of you from nowhere when you're not expecting and you're startled at his presence then he'll be called as a ghost. So at that time I surely were a ghost for them." Bearing the pain in her cheek for smiling widely she slapped on his shoulder lightly and tried to explain it to him.

"Ahhh! I get it now. But I thought you just got a better view of yourself in the mirror and then you finally realized that you are really a ghost like they are in movies, dark circled eyes sunken into eye sockets, bloody lips, sickly pale skin, skeleton like body-with no muscles and clothes you wearing, seem like a suit hanging on a hanger."

"What are you? A dog? My ears are gonna bleed because of your barking!" She said jabbing a finger into her ear as to clear it.

"Yeah, and this dog can bite too..." he ran after her gnashing his white pearly teeth as to bit her. She too started to run shrieking loudly to save herself from him.

"I'm gonna get rabies at this rate. I don't wanna have 14 injections as I'm afraid of needles. My beautiful skin would be pricked and my reddish blood will be contaminated by that unknown liquid though that would  be for the sake of my own life." She didn't forgot to make him mad even while running from his grasp.

Someone chuckled to himself watching their childishness. She sure was not changed.

'May she never' he prayed to himself.
