THE VIRTUAL WORLD

Thirteen

"By the way you said at four the sun will rise and they will go away." Jason asked.

"Nothing happened, I don't know why? In my dream it was like that only." Kate said remembering her dream.

"So it was in your dream?" Jason asked doubtfully.

"Yeah, why? What did you think?" Kate asked.

"I thought it was about the reality and so I got up without any tensions and then she saw me. Stupid if you told me we would be hiding safe in your home." Jason said angrily.

"Don't you think we are safe here, without any tensions." Kate said expecting an approval.

"Whatever. So tell me have you seen her before?" Jason asked Kate.

"No, not at all its the first time I saw her." Kate said remembering her face.

"She didn't appear in her dream?" Jason asked.

Kate nodded a complete NO.

"All I know is, my mom and I are In danger and we have to get out of this trouble but the actual problem is that now even you are in." Kate almost broke down.

"No, Kate you have to do this the day when your dad died you took the responsibilities of being a good company to mom. You left your many of the interests because mom didn't like them. You learnt karate to safeguard mom and yourself. Remember no matter how big this problem is you have to accept everything and take all the guts to discover." Kate started wiping of her tears.

Jason patted her back. "Do you trust me?" He asked.

"More than me." Kate said.

"Then I am there then why do you think of something else. Nothing will happen." Jason said.

"Is my mom hiding something from me?" Kate asked Jason.

"See I think, aunt wanted to tell you but she thought if  you just experienced it, you would know it better. Nothing else." Jason said to make it positive.

"Why is she hiding? I want to know what's in. And no matter what it is I am going to enter it and find out who lives there." Kate said eagerly.

"Can you tell me where we are going?" Jason asked.

" Even I don't know just walk." Kate said .

They walked....

The sun rose, covering the sky with its beautiful color and the climate was warm, birds chirped, the wind was blowing gently.

But there was no one around not even an animal. They walked for some more time and there came a diversion. There was a crossroad ahead and small buildings could be seen far away.
