It was 12am midnight, she heard a loud sound. The sound was scaring it made her feel as if something happened around her but she could not make out from where the sound came actually.
So, she thought it was her night mare. so she took her pillow and tried to sleep. But the sound made her awake it were not allowing her to sleep. She tried a lot. After some time she again heard that same loud sound, she got up and thought this was not a night mare or neither a dream. She removed the curtain and took her face towards the window pane. She saw lightning, the wind was blowing roughly, she could hear the rustling of leaves. The loud sound made her afraid ,sick.
she got down from her bed and this time the sound were just coming near to her. She tried to take the torch but unfortunately the torch fell, there was no curent. She became scared and just tried to run away but she fell down suddenly. But her falling couldn't stop her from running, she got up ran towards her front door. She hurriedly opened the door and walked down the street. The street seemed lonely. It was dark she could only hear the sounds of rustling leaves and wind blowing. Which made her more afraid though she walked down. And just for a moment she saw her shadow she stopped but it vanished. She again started to walk and again she saw her own shadow coming towards her she turned back and saw her own soul coming towards her to finish. She tried to shout but it seemed some one choked her voice, she could not even speak, she started shivering, she could hear the sound which she heard during her sleep. She couldn't find what wrong was going with her, she could not run it seemed some one is holding her feet tightly. She got afraid it was an scare moment she was facing. Being afraid , scare she started telling
"No more I am there ,
no more I can see you,
no more I can feel u or heal u against me,
I am going far from you I can't touch you because its my last day, last breathe on this Earth.
My shadow, my soul came to take me with them forever.
So good byee to all my dear and near one don't cry for me.
I am going to a nice place and will enjoy my life."
Her last line was like a thunder, she fell down and that was the last moment for her. She left her breath and that was a end of her life. It was her own shadow who took her, Killed her.
"Our own shadow is our own enemy."
