A Weird Dream
It was around 2 o'clock when I saw the coco clock. A sense of accomplishment ran through my mind cause I got to know it was going to be 2 before the bird. I had this weird habit of sleeping in the afternoon and watching TV through out the night at weekends. Usually I don't go out for a walk but this time I did. I was stupid to do so, cause a few blocks down the road a group of dogs started to bark at me. It was an obvious act by them cause no one goes on a walk at 2. Some of them ran after me and following my natural instinct I ran too and ended up stopping at a cross road. It was super quiet; no cars, no honks nothing. Then suddenly from one end of the road a group of people started walking towards me. It was kind of a march I guess, but in the middle of the night? What freaked me out was the sound of those footsteps which came towards me. Then I saw a girl of my age standing in middle of the road out of nowhere. Those people came near her and one of them started dragging her. She was screaming while looking at me. I wanted to run from there, but the sound of those footsteps and the scream of that girl tramutised me. I wasn't able to take a step, I wanted to shout but nothing came out. And then I fell on the road.

Next day I was on my bed, dunno how but it seemed last night incident never happened, cause mom said I was up sleeping all night. Thinking it as a bad dream I went to school. The day was going great, but then came recess. I was going to sit with my friends, but then suddenly I heard those footsteps again. It sounded like they were running towards me. Maybe going to catch me this time. I ran from the canteen and was going towards my classroom, but I accidentally slipped on the floor and banged my head on it.

This time I was hearing her screams in my head even in an unconscious state. I was in the infirmary when I gain consciousness, my parents were called and I was allowed to go home. I was in the car when I heard those voices again, and I suddenly jumped out of it. And came under a bus and died.

Now am a ghost, the girl I saw was still unkown to me. Those people and their footsteps were gone. I was happy that they didn't took me like her. But I don't know why they did took me away from my family. Maybe I shouldn't have gone out, and maybe I would have been alive then.
