The Story of the Dreamer

As the Time passed,

Alviva started having dreams many times now. She went crazy after dreaming, because she did not like to dream, she could not even sleep properly. But she had no control over her dreams, whether she wanted it or not, she had to see those dreams. Whatever she used to see in her dream, it would come true at some point, but she did not know when and where it was going to happen.

When she saw bad dreams, she would pray to God not to let that dream come true. When she had a good dream, she was happy that something good was about to happen.

Now she was used to all this. Still, she used to ask God why did she get such a life? What is the purpose of his life? Why does she only get such dreams? Will there be others like her? There were so many questions but there was not a single answer.

Days passed, Alviva dreamed once more. It is a pitch-black night; she could hear the sound of some lady shouting. When she came out of her room, she saw that there was no one in her house. She came out of the house, then came to know that the sound of someone’s shouting is coming from the side house. When she went inside that house, she saw that a pregnant woman had fallen down on the ground and was crying for help. Alviva runs to lady for assistance. Alviva called everyone for help but no one came there. Labour Pain began, and she eventually delivered birth. She requests to Alviva, save her child. Now, she passes away. Alviva came out of the house with that child and started calling for help. But no one came there. That’s why she herself left to go to the hospital with that child. On the way she saw that changes are coming in that child. The children suddenly stop weeping and begins to chuckle in an odd manner. Alviva saw that the child is slowly taking the form of a devil. Seeing all this, Alviva started getting scared of that child, and the child fell from her hand. The child started growing up and became a devil. That devil child started trying to kill Alviva. Alviva was trying to save herself. But she was not able to save herself, wherever she used to run, the devil would follow her. While running, she fell down and the Devil child caught her. That devil started strangling him. Alviva started trying to free herself.

On this side, Rae was looking at Alviva who was crying for help in her sleep.

Alviva began to feel that she would die today.

Rae: barked

Alviva woke up from sleep on hearing Rae’s barking. she was relieved to see himself alive. Rae also came to her. She was very happy to see Rae and said thank you to him. Because of him she was able to come out of the dream, otherwise she would have died today. Like every time, Alviva started talking to Rae about her dream. Whatever dreams Alviva used to see, she would share with Rae because no one else used to trust her words. Whenever she tells someone in the house about her dream, everyone starts laughing that it is her illusion. That’s why he had stopped telling everyone.

The future of her life is now in jeopardy. She won’t let that dream come true in any manner. In the next morning, when she was leaving home to go to college, she comes to know that a guest has come to his neighbouring house. When Alviva goes to speak to that guest, she sees that she is the same pregnant woman who appeared in her dream yesterday. Alviva cannot believe her eyes that her dream is coming true so soon. She gets scared. His neighbours ask her what happened? Why are you looking at her like this? Alviva is unable to say anything and leaves from there. She tells Rae on the way that the pregnant woman who came in the neighbourhood today is the same one whom she had seen in her dream.

She asks Rae: am I going to die?
