We
were walking down an unknown street. Some shops seemed familiar, few
unknown. Where were we? I was bit scared, yet holding her hand and
crossing the street, I didn't let her know of my anxiety. I asked her "
Are you hungry kya?" She nodded her head. I looked around for places to
eat. I saw a KFC a few metres ahead. We kept walking. The street was
quite deserted. I was wondering why was it?
Suddenly I heard gun shots and screams, and before I realized what was happening, a gun shot hit me and I was lying on her lap, barely breathing. I really didn't realize what was happening. Was I going to die? She was crying. How changed will be her life without me? All those questions came to my mind. Suddenly everything went blank. It scared a hell out of me. I shivered and woke up! It was a dream. I was sleeping and she was asleep right beside me. Thank God. It was just a dream, I checked my mobile, 5.36 am. I kissed her on her dimple. Such dreams are really scary. My mom used to say never to keep your hand over your chest, it brought bad dreams. Perhaps I had kept my hand on my chest while sleeping. With all this thoughts and thanking God, I slept again. My phone rang after a while," Oh no! Who's calling me this early morning?" Without even looking, I pressed the silent button and slept again. Few minutes later, again it rang, I had to wake up now. I took my mobile and saw her name. Why was she calling? I turned around, she wasn't there!! I picked up the call " Wake up, it's 3.00 PM, you will be late for office". I was not able to get what was happening, I checked the time, it was indeed 3.05 PM and the date was 10th Sept 2013. I was shocked! She was asleep beside me was a dream and me getting hit by a gun shot dying was a dream inside that dream. I told her the story and she laughed. Even though we are in two different corners of the country and we hardly meet, atleast for a moment I really felt, she was just right next to me. ~~~~By Parthajyoti
