SS- Beginning of an end. - Page 3

But lemme tell you.. it's quite murky...very dark.😕

Varad was running through an endless stairway... with no exit. He was getting scared by each and every passing second...He got relieved when he finally found a light shining through an open space. He rushed through the steps and reached the light. It was coming through the glass door in front of him... he anxiously found the knob and opened the door... to stare into a room he never thought he would... as if he was staring at the ghost of his past which he didn't want to be reminded of again...

He took in his surroundings for a minute when he heard a voice calling his name...A sickly sweet voice... that made him addicted to it like a drug...the voice he thought would never hear again...his spine shivered at the hearing of that voice again...his hair stood straight in his skin giving him Goosebumps...an unknown fear engulfing him...he let his instincts take over him as his legs started to walk in towards the voice when he saw a female figure running towards the other door in the room...he quickly started chasing her , and opened the door through which the female figure exited...

His eyes prickled in the darkness...and when he had adjusted to the dimness... he saw a long corridor with ornate pillars something that indicated to him that it was a part of an old palace...and he immediately searched for the female figure when he saw her running far in front of him towards the other side of the corridor...determined to find who it is, he started running with all his might to catch up to her...

"Wait... WAIT!!!!" he started shouting to the female as he started nearing her.

The figure started to slow down and stopped and stood for a minute.

Varad finally reached to the figure and touched her shoulders with his hands...trying to get a glimpse of her face, when the woman turned around.

Varad looked shocked and fearful as the woman gave a smile...he shuddered at seeing her as if he saw a ghost ... the ghost of his haunting past... that gave him unending hurt till now.

"YOU???" he asked in an undeniable tone...

"Yes varad..." the woman said in a sickly sweet voice that he didn't wish to hear...

"Why!!!!NO!!!!" he shouted and fell to a thud on the floor...and glanced up on her...

To his surprise, the woman gave a tearful smile...which tore him apart as if he is being pulled in all directions...an inexplicable pain overtaking his body and making him numb...

He hung his head in shame unable to face the woman...As he was delving in his thoughts... he heard running footsteps again...as he saw the woman run through the door at the far end of the corridor.

Determined to chase her down to apologise... he chased after her again ... his legs taking him involuntarily towards her...and he reached the door through which the woman exited yet again.

His ears hurt through all the blaring music...as he could not comprehend what was happening... and his eyes refused to see the bright light. When he finally calmed down, he realised he was in the middle of a wedding...and the woman sitting in the place of the bride.

He started running towards her in full speed, with an unknown determination to stop the wedding...and when he came near, he looked dumbstruck...looking with shock as he watched nobody noticed him and the wedding continued... with the groom tying the mangalsutra in the bride's neck...

"NO!!!!" cried a shocked Varad...he rushed towards the mandap...and he slowed down as he reached it when he was yet again shocked and scared as he saw that it was he himself who is the groom and the woman who sat as the bride was only sojal and not that ghost of a woman...

Confused he looked and scanned the room for traces of the woman when he saw her slid through the door at the far corner of the mandap...

He chased after her once more and slid through the same door when he noticed some people shouting...confused, he looked around for the source of the noise when he noticed two figures beyond the door in front of him...

He opened the door in caution when he saw himself and sojal in the middle of a fight...Both of them were shouting at the top of their lungs ...but he couldn't comprehend their language or their actions much...when he suddenly saw himself hit his wife pretty hard that she hit the table in her stomach...

"AH!!!!" sojal cried in pain and fainted before varad could get to her...varad saw in horror his other self laughing maniacally...when he saw a pool of blood coming out from his wife and drenching the floor...

"What did you do to my mother???" a small voice was sobbing hard and hitting varad's mad persona...when varad turned around to look at his daughter.

"Get lost!!!!" the mad varad pushed her away shaking his legs...when kavya hit the floor near sojal...

"Mama???Mama??? I'm scared..." Kavya started sobbing looking at all the blood in the floor.

Unable to move and rooted to the spot... Varad slowly realised the intensity of the situation...when he saw blood wetting his hands lying in the floor...

"Sojal...Sojal!!!!" he started shouting... trying to bring her back to consciousness...hitting her cheeks...but she remained still...He started sobbing hard...and then the sight of blood in his hands dissolved into darkness...and everything just turned pitch black.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Something hot was trickling down Varad's face...he awoke from his bed with a sudden jerk...remembering the incidents...when he realised it was just a horrible dream...

He wiped off his tears and stared into the mirror in the dresser by the side of his bed...making out the bits and parts of his unusual and horrid dream...breathing heavily and feeling scared for an unknown entity...somewhat ominous...

He then breathed a sigh of relief, as he realised that everything is fine and normal... and it was just a dream... a disturbing one at that...but a dream that was over nevertheless...

But little did he know that his dream is a premonition...the premonition to an end...

Sorry that it's very dark...I'll try and make up in the next update...
