       After a hell lot of tiring day when someone appreciates your work you feel soo happy right. That's what exactly Natasha was feeling. She was happy for the fact that she could manage the situation very nicely today. It was her second day in her new home and there was still lot of work for her to do.

    Lot of stuffs were still to be unpacked and arranged according to her likings. While arranging the stuffs she got a beautiful wind chime that her local guardian Aunt Daina gifted  her. It was in her place, where Natasha used to stay previously before she bought her own house. Thomas uncle and Daina aunty used to be their neighbors long back. When Natasha had wanted to shift back to Mumbai her parents left her in their care .
          
   Over the period of 5 years Natasha had collected many things that she thought one day she will use to decorate her own home.

       Aunt Diana's house where she stayed previously, had special room where she kept her unopened newly bought belongings. Aunt Daina was very happy when Natasha said she had found a house that she will call a home soon. She had helped her alot to come out from her depression intially.
      
    Yes even after taking pills for depression Natasha still used to feel depressed. She some how couldnt stop her from blaming for what happened. If it was not aunt Daina and Revu; Natasha couldn't have fought the demons inside her. Both of them used to talk to her. Revu used to call her every second day to check on her. Aunt Daina helped her find a place to start her bakery business, though Natasha's dad had offered her to help she had declined it saying,she wanted to do something by her own.
    
       Those were tough days. Natasha used to work from morning 9 to 5 and after that she used to attend online courses to fulfill her dream to be a lawyer some day. She always wanted to be lawyer but than baking happened but she had decided to never give up her passion to become a lawyer
     
           While unpacking Natasha first took the huge photoframe of Ishita which she had planned to keep in the drawing room. Natasha took the photoframe and caressed it slowly and placed it near the wall mount stand. Ishita was looking so beautiful in that black and white pic. Her eyes. Her smile. Her hair. Every thing was perfect about her. Suddenly she remembered about the girl she saw in Verma's party today. Why did she feel she had seen her some where. Brushing away her thoughts and after enough unpacking she decided to call it for the day and planned to watch some movies in Netflix. 

              While watching Netflix she didn't know when she  dozzed of to deep sleep. Suddenly she felt someone was calling out her name. 'Nats. Nats listen to me. Please help me. You know I am scared of darkness. Please come to me. Please... I beg you'. Natasha was hell scared and she asked, " Who are you? ' . As soon as she asked her she saw her face in a flashing light coming from nearby vehicle , it was Ishita, she was scared and was calling out Natasha . Oh no wait it's a train. Natasha screamed out , "Ish move from there, Ish move.. " Promise me Nats you will come  for me. Promise me" Before she could say anything the train hit her and the blood splattered all over her face. With this Natasha got up in a jerk from her sleep she was full of sweat. It was a dream. A dream that has been  haunting her from  a long time.

          She didn't know why she got this dreams all of a sudden now. It's been a while since she had his dream.  Intially when Ish had left her,  she used to get this every single day. But after she started taking medication they stopped coming. Now when everything was falling on track and when she was happy again, this dream gave her shivers down her spine. She was worried whether again depression will engulf her. But this time she wasn't ready for it at any cost. She decided to share it with her psychatrist.

     Next day first thing in the morning she called her dad's friend and her psychiatrist.

        Once the call was connected they shared pleasantries and then Natasha said, " Uncle actually I wanted to say you something. But I want you to keep it between us." She stammered and started again " I mean I don't want you to say anything about this to mom and dad. They will get worried again. " Her psychatrist assured her and said it will be between them and she can trust him."Uncle actually I saw that dream again about Ish. Uncle I am really scared why have I started getting this dream again" Natasha said in worried tone. "Uncle do you think Ish is alive and she really needs my help. Why would I get such dreams over and over again. When I was under medication I used to get enough sleep and my mind was free from her thoughts and when you said me to stop taking those pills considering I am getting better even then I didn't get those dreams and now all of a sudden I am getting haunted by those dreams again".

       Her doctor listened to her every word carefully and then said, " Child you have all the answers for the questions you have asked. Remember the day when you first came to me. You were really disturbed and you couldn't sleep at all. I gave you medication to calm your self. Later with constant and regular sessions you got better and gradually started feeling better. Now coming back to your dreams, you saw them only when your mind was disturbed. There's something in your mind thats disturbing you. Please let that thought go away. About your doubt, is your sister alive? and does she need your help? It's just your hallucination. She isn't alive, she has left you and you have to live with that fact. So my child listen and listen to me very carefully don't get disturbed and accept the reality and move on."

               It was difficult for Natasha to fathom the reality and hence she thought to get deep into it. She didn't know how but she had made her mind that she will solve this problem of hers once and for all.
