The Stranger comes in
Part 1.
Dear Tiny heart,
29/12/2009
Tara here, Sorry I lost you 5 days ago and found you in my locker room at school, It’s strange that I thought I already kept you in secret shelf, Right?
I think maybe it was my dream, how is that possible? last time I opened you and had left only last page to write anything, my mind is not working properly, all of these incident happening is mysterious for me, I’m a little bit scared of it and didn’t get any conclusion out of it.
I am seeing the same annoying dream for a week. Do you know Yesterday what happened to me? Dad and mom nobody was at home I was alone with Kitty, so I was preparing poha for an evening snack and kitty was sleeping on our sofa. Music was too loud on a tape recorder I was listening to a Hindi song singing side by side too, I switched on the tv I increased the volume. I don’t remember what was cast on that, I was trying to pretend that the house is full, My father told me this technique for my safety purposes.
It was 6:30 P.m cold and foggy outside, So I was wearing my sweatshirt, as usual. It was the first time for me to be alone for more than 3 days but I was happy that they were coming from Lucknow on 27th Dec. My Snack was prepared I just love the divergence of aroma spreading in every corner of the gallery. I served for myself, poured milk in a bowl for the kitty so that she can give me a company, I washed my hands and cleaned my workplace, Came back to the living room, we were watching tv and eating side by side,
Time passes quickly, our house has the sliding door made out of translucent glass, visible in summer and rainy season but a little blurry in winters,
I love the winter season among all. I will talk about this later,
there are many more things are left to tell you.
All of a sudden our dog Tuffy started barking in his full strength. I saw the clock needle, It was a 9 ‘O’ clock, Kitty and I got scared,
“It must be something wrong with that person,” I said to a kitty,
She said nothing, but staring at me, after all, she was a little cat.
The sound of footsteps was coming closer to us.
My heartbeat goes Lub-dub it was so fast. I had goosebumps from head to toe
all background music stopped abruptly, and then the bell rang.
I go one step back,
I was quiet but bell ringing continuously,
I gathered all my strength and I open the door,
“Who are you? why are you irritating us, don’t you have the manners?” I said courageously. I just saw his shoes and hands, it was too weird. I turned my head high to recognize him properly,
Long overcoat, skin color seems
snow white,
what a height ?
Too tall, I am going to fall,
oh , A man without hairs,
But I can feel fear
Big black hat covered his head
he was like a rock.
he never spoke,
my mind was blocked
real or dream I don't know?
