SCARY DREAM

"Shamim! Shamim!" Ella calls loudly walking into a very dark room where she can hardly see anything but a closed window. "Shamim! Shamim!" She calls loudly again and her voice echoes, she can hear her voice three times even after the call. "It's so dark in here." She says and looks around the darkness for a minute then she sees the closed window which light on the outside could be seen through. She manage to reach out to the window then opens it. Ella smiles and says "Now I can see clearly and look for my brother. Shamim! Where are you?!" She calls loudly and her voice still echoes.

A lady walks in pointing a gun at Ella and holding tears in her eyes. "Finally, you have walked into the lion's den yourself. I will put an end to this filth you call live."

"Who are you?" Ella asks taking some steps back wards.

"I am the lady who hate you the most on earth because you ruined my life." The lady says with spite and approaches Ella gently.

"Please, let me go, I only came here to find my brother." She pleads with her heart already racing fast.

"Your brother is the one who assisted your down fall Ella, that is what you get for caring and loving people too much."

"What did you do to my brother?!" Ella asks yelling and her the room echoes again.

"He will be living well after he sends you to hell soon." The lady says and Shamim walks in. "Do you have anything to tell her before I blow off her head?"

Shamim shakes his head wearing a very sad look. "I do not have anything to say."

"Why are you standing by her side shamim? I am your sister, come here." Ella says stretching her hand to reach out for her brother.

"I am sorry, I brought all this to us." Shamim says with tears rolling out his eyes. "I do not deserve your forgiveness Ella."

"No matter what happens, you are still my brother and I promise to forgive you. We can always sort it out Shamim."

"Enough of the boring sibling talk!" The lady orders and faces Shamim. "Why acting like you love her when you never even cared about her a bit?"

"Just shut up!" Ella yells and charges towards the lady.

The lady, not sure of what Ella had in mind, pulls the trigger and shoots Ella In her tummy.

"Ella!" Shamim calls and runs to his sister who is already laying on the floor in a blood bath. "Please don't die." He holds her hands and kisses it. "Hang on a bit, I promise to save you."

"You are one of the best things that happened to me Shamim." Ella says in her lowest voice and closes her eyes to sleep forever. "No!No!No!" Ella yells from sleep and opens her eyes covered in cold sweats. She can feel her heart pounding and racing very fast.

"Are you okay?" Abdullah rushes to her and observes her all around. "What happened to you? You had a bad dream?"

"It was a dream." She whispers moving her eyes faster than normal.

"What happened? Are you okay?" He asks again.

"I had a very terrible dream that-tha-that I that I- was walking not going-" she stutters.

Abdullah holds her hands and whispers to her. "Relax, there is no cause for alarm. I am always here for you."

"I need water." She whispers already calming herself.

He picks the bottle of water close to him, opens it and gives it to her. "Here you go."

"Thank you." She collects the bottle of water and drinks almost half of it.

"Now tell me, what happened? What was the dream all about ?"

"I walked into a very dark room looking for Shamim for some unknown reasons and all of a sudden, a lady walks in with a gun and points the gun at me, telling me she wants to put an end to my life and all of that was happening because of my brother. Then shamim walks in and starts apologizing, at the end of it, the lady shot me dead."

Abdullah sighs and embraces her tightly. "It's just a dream sweetheart. It isn't something serious."

"I hope so, I just pray nothing bad happens because I am more concerned about Shamim. He is acting strange and it's getting me very worried."

"What happened to Shamim?"

"Last night, I was at this room and he told me Cassandra called him trying to make things up."

"Are you for real?" Abdullah asks seeming shocked.

"I was more shocked and surprised than you are yesterday. If she loves as him she claimed yesterday, why did she allow him leave before showing her love to him? Why did she make him feel used not loved?" Ella asks no one in particular.

"Did you guys have a talk about it the issue?"

"Of course I tried to talk him off it, but he flared up telling me to stop telling him what to do. He even made it clear that I am not his sister." She exhales deeply. "Look at what happened this morning too, we are gradually turning into strangers."

"Don't talk like that sweetheart, he is just emotionally unstable. He needs time to figure a lot of things out and I am sure he will be back to his right senses soon."

"I just hope it doesn't get too late before that happens."

"It won't my love." Abdullah says smiling sweetly at his lover.
