"No , not again , please don't
Don't do this , I beg you, I loved you don't betray me, please no , save me.
A sound of pleading was all that was heared , which showed a sence of fear , horror and dispair .
"NOOOO ! PLEASE SAVE ME !!" A scream left by the throat of Astrid.
This was not the first but the 10th time she saw this dream again, the dream of drowning, the dream of being betrayed by someone, the dream of Dying.
This is strange for her as she used to see such similar dreams once every month but this time it was more than once ,twice or thrice. She is seeing the same dream everyday like a repeating scean in a movie.Astrid whose background story is still not known by anyone or even her. She didn't remember her past about where she was born , who are her parents, she belongs to which family and lot more.
The thing is, it was Dec 3 , 1991 when was memories were vanished. It was strange but the thing which is even strange than this is the Locket.
Which is being placed in her neck and although trying almost a million of times to take that off , she wasn't able to do that so .
The locket wasn't that beautiful according to her , it was a simple almost triangular locket and it doesn't even look durable enough but even though of using various methods to take that locket off from her she wasn't able to."What's this, why am I seeing this more often , does this even makes any sence " Astrid spoke while wondering about the dream or a indication that she just saw .
Later not thinking much about that dream she stood up from her bed , took a bath , get refreshed and started getting ready for her university.. soon after few months she is even going to graduate from that University which makes her feel more excited although she wasn't happy at all .. she never smiled or spoke .... She is even regarded as the most cold , silent,rude yet beautiful girl in the entire university.
And due to this she was even the crush of almost the entire university's boys.
She always used to wonder about how her past life would be, who are her parents and many more."I hope I am not late today " Astrid said while running in the corridors of her university.......
Luckily she reached on time or 6 minutes before it...
Soon the lecture begin ..........
_ In The Class________________________
" Hey Astrid, listen to me once nah " a voice of a wisper arose from the backside by one of the students , Kavin.
"I was asking if you are free today's evening then we can go for a coffee date" Kevin added being a bit positive.
Astrid stood up and first glared at Kavin then she told her professor that she is being disturbed by the voices of Kevin.
" KEVIN IS THIS WHAT YOU CAME HERE FOR.... GET OUT OF THE CLASS RIGHT NOW" the professor growled at Kevin..
Kevin heartbeat increased, he wasn't expecting that her crush , Astrid would take such steps towards him.
"I am sorry sir , I won't do it again"
"DIDN'T YOU HEARED WHAT I SAID, OR SHOULD I HAVE TO REPEAT IT"
Professor growled again...Soon after that Kevin left from that place, being completely insulted among all his classmates.
The class ended and Astrid was completely exhausted after that , she decided to go towards the cafe for taking a small break and after that she decided to go to the library.
In cafe______________________________
The cafe was the only place which provided peace to the mind of Astrid.And among all the cafe of her town ,
" the lilyworld cafe " was her favourite... Although it was one of the most costly cafe of her town with the arival of very few people in it but still she loved the decor and the peace he found only in that cafe.The blissful silence is what she loved the most... She hated living in crowd and noisy placed..
And as per as for the money she needs to maintain her livelihood was somehow was put in front of her house main door on the 1st day of every month... She eagerly wants to know the reason and motive behind this...
She wants to know who was the person who used to kept money infront of her house every month... She wants to know the motive of that person behind this but due to her academic strees she wasn't able to investigate about these ..... But she decided that next month she will surely find out the person behind this and the motive of the person behind this....After having sips of coffee she packed her things , payed the bill and made her way towards the library.....
While searching for a suitable book she ended up being with 10 books with her... She decided to choose best among this but wasn't able to as she liked each of them.
However she somehow choose a book that was obviously of science .
Now keeping that thick science book in the table nearby her , she went to keep the rest of the books that she took out from the shelve....
After that she started reading that book siting peacefully in her chair and soon after that she even got immersed in that book...
While she was deeply reading that book suddenly out of no where a sweeper broke out and looked at the only girl sitting in the library..Looking at her ,he said " umm , hey listen can you just bring few books from the Store room actually I have sold them as they have been useless... I have few more works to do so that's why I ask you to do this"
After hearing the request of the sweeper, Astrid agreed and went towards the store room (she had finished reading that book) ...
The store room was not too dusty or dirty big rather than it was cleaner than she expected ... Lights were on but still gloomy feeling was prevailing over there ,without wasting much time,
There she started searching for the book that the sweeper request her to bring with her.....
There were not many books over there , just 5 thick books.And while carrying them suddenly and accidentally her legs tripped , like if someone had done this intensionly and she fell causing the table kept right beside her to fell too....
Soon after handling herself Astrid started to organise the things and her eyes fell on the 6th book lying just beside her ... The book was old and dusty .... She took that book and wipe the dust over it...
She started to read the content of the book that was "the truth of illusions- a vast descriptions about dreams"
Unknown she started reading that book,, it seemed like she got hypnotize while reading that...
Hours passed by.
Soon the doork of the store room opened revealing the sweeper, the sweeper was shocked by seeing this condition of the store room.
Then his eyes fell on Astrid who was deeply immersed in that book.
The sweeper called her multiple times but she wasn't able to hear him.
Soon the sweeper shook her body and then suddenly Astrid came into her sences.
"Umm , child I think you have increased my work" the sweeper said being a little tensed .
"Ahh, I am so sorry for that " Astrid apologised and soon started to organise the things again and within 5 minutes everything was completely done..
"Here are the books you asked me to bring" Astrid spoke while giving the book to the sweeper...
After taking the books from Astrid the sweeper was about to go when Astrid interrupted in between"Actually,can I take one book from there , I will pay the money for that book too"
"Sure, and no need for any money, take it as a reward for helping me"the sweeper spoke with a smile and handed the book to Astrid which she asked for "the truth of illusions- a vast descriptions about dreams".
Soon after that , she started packing the things and went towards her home.
