Day 1

Cavin...
Cavin...
CAVIN...

I rushed to the kitchen.
Felicia was on the floor.
Scared and in tears.
Covering her face in her tiny palm.

"Felicia what happened?"
I was holding her by her shoulder.
She pointed at the sink...
The water, it's its..It's (shaking in her voice)
It's red like blood.

I opened the tap and checked.
"It's clear, normal water. See!!"

"Huh.. how is it possible.? I saw it. It even stained my hands. Can't you see?!"

"There is nothing wrong with your hand. Come on let's go to our room. You need some sleep."

"But the water..."

"We will call the plumber tomorrow. If anything is wrong, we will come to know."

"Come on now it's 2 am in the morning."

Day:2

"Good morning. Are you alright?  It seems you had a terrible nightmare."

"I remember it all.
It was anything but a dream
I felt the warmth as it gushed down the pipe.
               (Pause)
I don't want you to go to the office today. I know you think I'm mad."

"No you are not. See I can't stay back today. I have an important project discussion to attend."

" Don't leave me and go.."

Day:3

Oh my God! I should have told her I won't be able to make it, I'm feeling so bad to leave her all alone in the night. I should rush.

"Felicia.. sorry I am bit too late."
"Felicia"
"FELICIA!!"

SHE WAS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND.

I RUSHED TO THE KITCHEN AND SAW

BLOOD
FLOWING
DOWN
THE
TAP!

The police arrived.
They retrieved her body from the water tank.
She had been dead for 3 days.
