A mystical message
#WritcoStoryPrompt25
I stared at the letters tattooed into my right forearm. I had no memory how I had got it or why I was in a hospital gown or why I was floating at the edge of a muddy, river bank. I had absolutely no memory of who I was.

My dark,half opened eyes fell on the rays of the rising sun which was being reflecting from a piece of mirror kept there. My mind was completely blank and I felt to have got born in a new world.

Half an hour passed and then my ears heard a very fearful voice of a couple who wear in search of their son.
"How can God curse my child? It's too much. Even I don't know where's my girl, how's my girl____" The mother mumbled.
Father interrupted in the middle-"Don't think too much. Everything's fine. I'm here to consult with a nurse. Stay Calm. "
They consulted the Hospital Manager but did not get any appropriate clue.
After a while, a nurse came and directed them into my room.They ran towards me wailing heavily.
I was really surprised to know that they were mine.
"Who asked you to fall in these things? Have you forgotten that you are still a kid? " shrieked my Mom with her weepest eyes.
I did not even shaked my mouth.
"What we're you dreaming at the edge of that river bank,Aadya? "
A small memory strikes my mind but wasn't able to figure it out.
My legs were deeply injured and my left eye was swollen a bit. My ankle was also swollen, a major sprain.I was unable to move my legs freely.
I simply looked both of their faces but didn't replied back anything.
I was back to home after spending three hours lying unconscious in the hospital. They lost bundles of money
and I was with “lost memory. ”
“No work, no study. Just lie down and be moody. ”
My sort of thinking be like. I was at cloud nine.
“Wait a minute. But I don't wanna be a fatso just lying down in the bed! ”I muttered looking at the mirror.
But at the same time-“ To gain something, need to loose something. ”
The sun was going to set.
“Are you fine now! No need to be scared. Just relax.”My mother interrupted entering my room.
I simply nodded my head.
She patted my shoulders, a tight hug and left the room.
I slept.
But my father became restless day by day. He wanted to work on this mysterical incident. He felt as if a sword was hanging on her daughter's head.
That's how he started his mission of investigation.

To be continued. ..
