Chapter 1: Chapter-1
Footsteps, turning back I saw a man dressed in white, looking clean and gentle he forwarded his hands towards me. I stared into his eyes in confusion but eventually took his hands to get up from the small bridge I was sitting on staring deep into the lake reflexing the sunset infront of me. I stared into that mans face in confusion indeed studying his face structures. Long yet attractive hairs, Sparkling almond brown eyes, and a gentle smile with a tall height. I stared into his eyes in confusion asking if I knew him through it. "I am back to take you with me my love" he said smiling and staring at me with love reflexing in his eyes. I was confused yet curious but couldn't speak a word properly, all I said was "what?" He chuckled and gave me a peck on my forehead and vanished.
"Myra?"
"Myra wakeup" I slowly opened my eyes blinking the last bid of sleepiness away. I saw my friend who had short black hairs, Good appearance and the most silly personality was waking me up.
"Finally you're awake. Let's go we are getting late" she said looking onto the mirror but eventually looked back at me for not getting a reply. "What's wrong?" She said sitting beside my laying figure.
"I saw a dream... a weird one" I said in a confused tone.. she stared at me wanting me to reveal what I saw in it.
"I saw myself sitting infront of a lake on a bridge and then suddenly a guy approached me and grabbed my hand lifting me up... He said he was back to take me with him and before I could ask anything he smiled, pecked my forehead and vanished" I said in pure confusion and a weird feeling.
She laughed at my weird dream and asked what did he looked like.
"He looked like... like... I-I can't remember but He was tall and I was like... Upto his chest" I said thinking hard.
"It's okay Myra that's just a dream, chill and get ready we're getting late okay?" She said tapping my shoulder and left. Indeed if I was confused and curious about this dreams meaning but eventually got up and got freshen up, wore a white floral dress, groomed my hairs, used some lipgloss and got out of my room for breakfast. "Come have something" Said Anaya, my friend and we sat down on the dining table and started having our breakfast. Once we were done we had out for work. The day went by fast leaving me with the thought of overloaded work and that feeling of uneasiness.
Days and weeks past by and I forgot about that dream I saw when one day again I saw a similar dream. There was a man sitting near the river crying his eyes out, I was behind him but couldn't approach, I saw him crying with a girl in his arm who didn't move the whole time and her clothes were covered in blood. The only thing the man said was "comeback please, I need you." And all of a sudden I moved my gaze to the other direction and saw the same men hanging on the tree lifeless. I was scared to death and tried to run away as fast as I could but I couldn't move. I was suffocating and felt like I was trapped in it. I could hear noises in my ear feeling like someone is trying to communicate with me. This really terrified me with that deep rough whispers near me.
Gasping for air I woke up opening my eyes I looked at the blank ceiling breathing heavily. I slowly gulped my saliva down and searched for my phone to check the time. 3:33 am. I kept my phone aside, drank some water. Laying back down and wiped my sweating forehead and stared into the ceiling deep thinking about the dream I saw. Once again I couldn't recognise his face but I could hear him crying and saying "comeback please, I need you" with a trembling voice... Chills ran into my body and with the thought of this nightmare I fell deep into my slumber.
10:33 am.
Munching onto my sandwich I was zoned out when Anaya snapped her fingers onto my face grabbing my attention she asked "where are you lost? I am talking to you girl." She says and I nodded and smiled in guilt for not listing to her.
"What happen Myra? Did you see the same dream?" She asked munching onto her food recieving a nod from me, "was it bad this time?" I sighed and nodded again.
"What did you see this time?" asked Anaya
"This time it was more creepy, I saw that man near a river crying his heart out with a girl in his arm, he was trembling and asking her to comeback... I didn't see her face but than suddenly I saw the same man hanging himself onto a Huge tree lifeless" I said drawing on the table with my fingers with a scared look.
Anaya rubbed my back and consoled me saying it was a nightmare because I mostly watch horror movies.
"Hey Myra do you know what?" She said trying to lift my mood up.
"What?" I said numbly
"I heard that a young guy would be moving onto our neighbour, Sounds fun right?" She said excited. I nodded with a fake smile on my face as we continued talking...
"Anaya could you be fast!?" I screamed from the living room scrolling onto my phone resting on the couch.
"2 minutes!!" Says anaya from her room, I sighed in frustration because we were getting late for the party threw by our company in the name of our new achievement of our product being sold out rapidly over a month and ranking 2nd for the best company in the whole country.
Anaya walked down the stairs wearing a red revealing bodycon dress and curled open hairs, heavy makeup, She looked really pretty and here I wore a maroon coloured bodycon dress, curled open long hairs and a bit of makeup on. We walked out of the house, locked it and drove off to the place where the party was held in. Just when we got there we got greeted by the new comers, colleagues, boss and the other guests there because 60% of the hardwork for this project was by me being the ED myself and Anaya being the Assistant of the president. We talked, greeted, had some drink and walked out of the hotel all tired, I checked the time and it was 11:33 pm... I felt uneasy because in this few days all I see is 33 in the end or beginning of any number I see since I saw that weird dream. We drove away from the place to our home and when I got into my room, freshen up I went to close the curtains of my room but saw the light of that one room infront of our house. I squealed my eyes to spot a figure inside that room and I indeed saw a guy infront of the mirror, I could only see his back and my heart started beating heavily when I spotted that guy. uneasiness rose into my body and I quickly closed the curtains of my room because I didn't wanted to look like a creep looking out onto somebody elses house.
