It was wood dark and cold outside as the clouds prepared and moved around in a hurry.

"Who are you ?

"Wake up" I said for the hundredth time.

"WAKE UP AND TELL ME YOUR NAME" I shouted. Politeness had to leave after five minutes of no response from her.

"Who are you, At least give me a contact number, give me something.Who should I call? Say something. Say anything".

The girl on the chair who was wearing a Red Anarkali Salwar , slowly started falling off the chair . I tried to get hold of her cloth's end to place her back on the chair ;but the cloth just slipped through my hands as if they didn't exist.

She was now lying face up on the floor .I kneeled down beside her to shake her awake but stopped midway and felt a foul smell up my nostrils.

A disgusting scent of rotten meat murked the whole room.But she didn't realize that it was from the girl's body. The clouds spit thunder and rain fell as in some form of revenge; It could not hold it anymore.

What actually happened to her ? Is she ok? "Hey girl are you dea…" . The thought terrified her . Her Throat developed a lump and words failed. Her hands wetted with sweat. I walked in panic from one corner to another. Then stood near the window and rested both my palms on the window glass .It wasn't comfortable, it was feverishly cold. I Watched as the raindrops created small waves in the rain water on the street.A strong orange street light hit the street water and reflected into my eyes.I quickly thought of pouring some cold water from the rain on her face. But wait ! What if she is actually dead. I wanted to check if the she was alive but I didn't want to, at the same time.I just couldn't face the truth.

This is not happening.I am not here.But another voice in me advised me to stop fooling myself. I don't even remember coming to this place. Anyway, I must leave before someone sees me alone with a dead body.She said to herself.

Suddenly her ears picked up a knock on the door. KNOCK KNOCK.
