I opened my eyes and found myself in a huge crowd. I don't know what's happening around. Everything seems to be well known but quite different. Someone started to chase, they all are armed. Running very furiously towards me. With an unknown fear I started to run to save myself. There's no one trying to help me, in fact they don't even care. Suddenly I entered the moor. It's dark and cloudy. I was barefoot and so I could feel the wet stink land. After running to some extent, I looked back, my eyes recognised one in them, whom I know very well. He is one of my friends who is trustworthy and moreover he's the most lovely friend to my family. So millions of questions started to raise in my mind,. I'm still running on fumes. My feet got hurt by the thrones. My thenars are bleeding,I have fallen down in that stink and I'm completely exhausted but they are still chasing. My body is completely soaked with sweat. I suddenly heard a bell ring. There's a church near by. I ignited my legs to crawl. My knees are very unsupportive but still I'm dragging myself to get out of that Stink pit. By then, They caught me, lifted up with my color and bound my hands.

"What you all are doing to me. Please let me go," I screamed. But none reacted. One of them hit me on head with a hammer. That's a very hard shot, the pain rushed to all my nerves. The fear of death camouflaged my heart. I looked around for help, I found none.. Pain is running in every inch of my body. I felt like I was marooned. My only relay is God
" What do you want?" I asked the person I know.
"It's my need and so, you are the prey," he said by pointing a hammer on my head.
"I'm doing this just for my pleasure, I don't care about anyone." by saying that he smashed my head with a hammer. My eyes got shut with that stroke. I felt their hands over my body like tearing apart.

" I'm not meant for this pain. But I am going through this. Why should I be the victim for someone's pleasure? Why everyone around eschewed me. Moreover the person, whom I know well, doing this to me. He is killing me, He's not even ready to listen to a word more. I was abandoned, there is no one to wipe my tears and take my pain away. Why god incurred me with this,"

Later I tried to open my eyes a little, my eyes blurred but even I can see the hammer is just in front of my eyes,
" This is the final," he said and smashed my face.

At that moment my whole body came to conscious, I woke with a jolt and sat by inhaling with my wide mouth. My face, my neck, my chest was completely filled with sweat. My room is dark and time is 8:30Am. And that was a very Horrible dream. It seemed like everything is real, and felt like I went through it. I got off my bed, walked slowly out from my room. My mom is in the kitchen, making some food. My father already went to his work. My brother is getting ready to take his wife to the hospital for a general check up. She is 4 months pregnant now. I sat on the sofa asking my mother for a coffee.

"Haven't you been to college yet ?" My brother asked.

"We have lab sessions, So we were said to come in the afternoon," I replied.

"Okay, we are leaving for the hospital. You go and Get the groceries." He instructed.

My mom brought coffee and gave me the list of the groceries. By sipping my coffee, I've been through the list. My brother and his wife Kavya left for the hospital and my mother went back to her cooking session.

After my coffee, I dressed up and started to the grocery shop nearby. The time is 9:00 am. The morning sun rays jumped into my eyes, as soon as the door opened. By rubbing and covering eyes with my arms I started to walk on the road. I reached the bus stop which is at the corner of our street and I should walk for some more distance. Suddenly, the dream flashed in my mind, I don't know what kind of dream it is,I experienced the fear of death, the feel of forsaken, the pain for life.

All my thoughts were disturbed with a dash given by a stranger. I turned to say an apology, but he went to a 6 or 7 years old girl with an ice cream, ignoring me. Due to my drowsy mood I took shade and sat inside the bus stop. The girl was so cute and naughty. She is eating her ice cream with ease. She was taken on the man's lap. He is kissing her alot. That's usual, everyone will love to kiss cute children. I think he loves his daughter a lot, he keep on kissing her on cheeks, face, head and hands. He held her so close. A person may love his daughter, but not to that extent. My brother also may turn like once he was blessed with a baby. A school bus horn made that man startled and soon the girl got down and rushed into the bus with a small bag on her shoulder. She waved back to the person mentioning him as uncle.
