    It was inky dark ....

Suman pressed her forehead hard as she couldn't recall anything...

Her headache was heavy...

She searched for the night lamp approximately and switched it on...

With the  dull yellow illumination, she could understand where she was...

She was sitting in her room, perspiring heavily...she felt sick and she knew she was weak...

But, why?

She was thirsty...as though she was at the middle of a dry land...

She sat upright , dangling her feet and wondered to feel the numbness...

  Am I that much weak?!?!

She took each step carefully towards the kitchen fighting with the faint...

That's all...she reached the fridge and pulled the door...

Her eyes opened wide, in utter confusion...

What the hell...?!?! Am I seeing it correct ?!?!

Suman wiped her eyes and keen her vision into the fridge...

There wasn't water bottle or vegetables...Instead, there was a hollow darkness... perhaps, a way to somewhere else...

Suman's throat parched... gulping hard , she extended her hand to the darkness...

The very next moment , she was inside...she was being a
part of the deep darkness...

Everything around her  was swirling and she shouted for help....

" Help.....help....anybody there...?"

But, why she's just gesturing... probably, her voice wasn't coming out...

She had no choices left but to go with the darkness...

Strangely, she walked steadily and she could see a light...she quickened her steps towards it...

Must be someone who could help me!!!

  She was walking for the past few hours and still she's walking...

She was damn tired...

Why am I still on walk...? Is it a kind of trap? Or am I  stuck with a maze...?

She puzzled and stood still for sometime indecisive...

Now, the bulb was close to her...

Panting, she huffed in relief...

Finally...I reached the light...!

As she was getting closer to the light, she saw a small hut beneath it...

Someone is there!!!

Satisfactory smile spread over her...

She touched the wooden door and it opened without much ado...

Inside, it was bright ...too bright..!!!

Suman closed her eyes in a wink and slowly opened to get used to the brightness...

It was a mortuary....!!!

She couldn't withstand herself...she felt like fainting... nauseating...

For her surprise , there was no such ambience that related to a martuary..

Still, she was terrified...

Where am I ???

Suddenly, there rolled a stretcher towards her...
