A man with his head tilted towards the left was leaning against the wall. His hands covered with bloodstains, bumps , bruises, cuts and grazes all over the body, standing lifelessly.
"Help me," said the man.
I was helpless , I didn't know what to do, whom to call for help. At this hour who would be available.
"Water...rrr... I...wat...eer..",saying this the man lost his consiousness and fell. His head on my chest, I became numb,helpless. I picked up the man from his shoulders and dragged him inside. I woke my aunt and told her all about the situation, she at once called the ambulance and the police.
The man was taken to the hospital. The whole neighborhood was awake by then and stood outside and watched the whole scenario. I was scared to death. My body was trembling with fear. Mrs. Morgan and Aunt Marie kept rubbing my hands and were trying their best to ease me.
The officers were informed about the whole scenario . It was now 4 a.m .
"Katherine, you better have some rest now," said aunt Marie.
"Yes your aunt is absolutely right. You have gone through much lately. You are probably disturbed", saying this Mrs. Morgan took me to my room and laid me down on my bed and put me to rest and switching off the lights she went away. And I dozed off to sleep.
**********
It was 11'o clock in the morning. No one was around. A letter was kept on the table which said,"Dear Katherine,
I am leaving for work. Your breakfast is ready and is kept in the kitchen. After yesterday's incident, I didn't want to wake you up.
I hope you are alright now. If you need any help you can ask Mrs. Morgan to help you. Rest I have kept some money in your room's drawer, eat your lunch outside. I'll be back home by 5 in the evening.
Take care!!
Your Aunt Marie."Yesterday night was teriffic. I wonder how is that man now. And all those wounds. It seemed as if he was attacked by some wild animal.
I didn't feel like having anything. All I wanted was to go back to my home. Everything here is scary,
People, weather ,everything!!!!
Suddenly the weather changed drastically, it was quite warm in the morning and all of a sudden it was thundering and lightning. It became windy, and in no time it started raining heavily. The clouds that had been wispy and white that morning were now darker and more dense.My phone beeped, a message from my aunt saying,
"I may be a little late. So don't worry about me and just take care of yourself".It's already 5 p.m. I wonder when will aunt marie arrive home. I was sitting near the window and staring at the dark sky and all of sudden my eye caught the sight of the same man that I had happened to see last night standing in the middle of the street.
I ran downstairs to follow him. He was making his way towards the woods. I forgot to carry my umbrella along. It was raining so heavily that it was hard to see anything. Even during the day it was dark.I didn't know why was I following him. But something felt strange about him.
No normal human will go to the woods in this weather. His speed was way too fast that it was difficult for me to catch up with his speed.
Where was he heading to?
All of a sudden I stepped on a peice of wood that made the loudest crack sound that one could hear. And he stopped. I hid myself behind a big rock.
My heart pumping fast,my blood rushing through my veins, I started loosing my senses. I couldn't move. My body became numb from fear. It was raining so heavily that I could hardly see a thing around.
I stayed still for quite a time but nothing happened. I slightly peeped through an end of the rock. There was no one around.
He was gone.
I took the advantage of the situation and made my way back and ran as fast as I could. I couldn't see a thing but I paid no heed. While I was running my foot got stuck with the a peice of bark and my head got bumped into a tree and everything around me became blury and all of sudden it was dark.
***********
The moment I opened my eyes I saw my aunt starring at me. I was in my room in one peice. I at once hugged her and started crying.
"Hey, what happened?", asked aunt Marie.I had nothing to say. All I could do that very moment was weep.
"How did I get here?", I asked my aunt with a trembling sound.
"What do you mean by how did you get here?", she asked with a weird expression with one eyebrow raised up.
I stared at the alarm clock with my mouth opened. It was 10 p.m.
"Katherine!", my aunt looking at me with concern.
"How did my clothes got changed?", I asked.
"Oh that, I came by 7 and was calling you out. So I came in your room and found you asleep here. Then I noticed that you were all wet and I changed your clothes so that you dont catch cold.", she said giving a warm smile.
"Oh! So it was you."
"Who else it would be?", kissing my forehead she went out of my room.All that I remember is that I was stuck in those woods. I looked at myself in the mirror, there was no scar, no wound on my head. But I very well remember that I had hurt my head.
This place was getting suspicious day by day. How did I get here?
The moment I sat on my desk I saw something shining near my bed. It was a bracelet. A creepy one. It had a white stone on it and rest was a black strap. This was definitely not mine. And no ways aunt is going to wear such stuff.
Was it of the person who brought me here?
And if it belongs to that person then he would come back again. I took the bracelet and tied it on my wrist.Aunt had slept. I sat on the kitchen shelf starring at my wrist.The Sky was clear, not a cloud to be found anywhere. The sky was a mixture of dark midnight blues and purple. All swirled together to make beautiful contrasting lights and darks of the night sky. The stars just decorated the sky. It almost looks as if someone took a handful of glitter and just threw it up to the sky. The stars were sparkling and gorgeous. The moon accented the night sky perfectly.
I was enjoying this beautiful view that I saw some figure moving outside. So I went out to see what it was. The shed area of the house was always a scary one. I could hardly find anything there. Maybe I was mistaken.
There was moonlight all around and the bracelet shone when it came in the moonlight. It shone brightly and it was looking so beautiful. I wondered what kind of stone it was.
And then I saw a man standing right in front of me like a pillar. His face almost covered with a hood.
"Who are you?", I asked taking a step back.
He didn't say a word. He took a step forward towards me and I simultaneously took a step backwards
He stopped and put down his hood. Those blue eyes again glaring at mine. That face, it was him. It was him all the time."You...you are the person who had helped me the other day."
He didn't say a word. He came near me ,our faces almost in contact. I was standing with a bated breathe. I was nervous because every time I saw that person, I couldn't resist the sweet blood.
He took hold of my hand, looked at the bracelet and gave a sly smile yet It seems to be becharming all the women's heart, like mine.
He brought his face near mine. This gave me shivers all over my body.
"You scared!!", his voice too alluring.
I felt my heart racing, pounding fiercely within my chest. And didn't realise that I was biting my lower lip.
"Don't loose this bracelet, ever", saying this he put my hair behind my right ear with his hand and was in the wind in no time.For a moment I stood still. I couldn't believe that the man whom on seeing I lost myself was right here with me. And this bracelet is his. He was the one who brought me back home. I had never felt this happy before. I was jumping in the air.
I wonder if he feels the same as I feel on seeing him.
I went back to my room. I couldn't stop my excitement. I was way too happy. I kept kissing the bracelet and laid on the bed.
But something didn't look fine. Something is strange about that person. Now I was getting second thoughts and my mothers words were running through my mind.
"You don't have to look for trouble. It will find you."
The worst situation is when you are confused about whom to listen,your heart or what your brain says. His actions are unusual as compared to other men. His speed, his aura, his escense, his presence is all different. There is something that he is hiding.
But what if all these are just my silly assumptions.
I could still feel his warm hands holding mine, his fingers across my ear. His heart throbbing smile. I was definitely falling for him.
I pulled the sheet and covered my face and dozzed off.
