It was raining that night. Lightning was flashing and I had that dream again.
In which I was again crying while holding the same boy and very strange animals were coming from every direction and there was fire all around.
I woke up the next day and saw that there were tears in my eyes but my face was without any emotion, just like a blank white paper, just like a person's face without crying.
I was not feeling any kind of sadness, I was just having a little bit of pain in my heart. But I get this dream three or four times a month, so now I have got used to it.
So then I normally got up from the bed after wiping my tears and did a little stretching to get up fully.
I went to the washroom, got ready and came out, looked in the mirror, gave myself a bright smile, and I took my luggage and left for the airport.
I am a student who is studying about time travel. I was very interested in time traveling things, so I studied about it and got an opportunity to go aboard. But I did not know that was the beginning of the dark past would start from here.
I was standing outside with my luggage waiting for a cab and I was using my phone.
Then a little girl who was about eight or nine years old came running to the middle of the road to catch her ball.
My eyes got widened when i saw a car coming towards her. Without even realizing my body, she walked towards the child. I pushed the child before she could come in front of the car. The child fell down but survived.
In exchange for that girl, I was about to come under the car but the driver of the car quickly turned the car and I was also saved.
Then the girl started crying because she had fallen down. So I went near the girl to pick her up from below.
But at that very moment a big truck was about to stop behind the car which the driver had suddenly stopped but it did not stop.
And that truck hits the car and both the car and the truck come over me when I was about to pick up the girl.
My one hand got completely crushed and one of my eyes gets blinded and blood starts flowing all over the road.
When the girl saw this scene she screamed very loudly out of fear and starts moving backwards.
After seeing that girl I understood that I must be in a very bad condition that's why she reacted like this and I close my one remaining eye.
But I feel someone's hand on my head and I see that the girl keeps my head in her lap while crying and tries to stop the bleeding with both her hands.
After seeing this, tears started coming from my eyes too. I wanted to put my hand on that child's head and hug her but one of my hands was crushed and the other was torn. She was a very cute looking girl but I felt sad seeing tears in her eyes.
So I gave that child a warm smile for the last time and then slowly I closed my eyes and said, "thank you..."
When I closed my eyes, everything turned black and everything stopped. I couldn't even feel my own body. I was not feeling any pain or emotions.
"..."
"Empty."
"..."
"Empty. Empty. Empty! Empty!!! EMPTY!!!"
"...."
I wanted to wake up but nothing was happening. I was crying and begging to be let out of here. I started screaming but I couldn't hear my own voice. But I was screaming because if I slept here, I felt I would fall asleep forever.
But then a miracle happened, a light came from somewhere and I was forcefully pulled into that light.
When I had my eyes closed, I started seeing those dreams again which I used to have repeatedly, as if they wanted to tell me something.
Then I opened my eyes and tears started coming out of my eyes again. I placed my hand on my face and tears started dripping on it too. But I was not feeling any emotions, so I wiped my tears again like before.
Then I looked up and looked around. My eyes sparks when i saw that tree which was so large and breath taking beautiful that i can't describe. The height of that tree was rising above the clouds.
Right above that tree, among the clouds around it, a flock of birds was flying. They looked like birds but they were actual not birds. I was watching from such a low position that I thought they were birds but they were a different kind of creatures that looked like dragons, which were not only beautiful but also at same time scary.
I began to look around, there were trees all over the place and rivers falling from the clouds as if I was in heaven.
I was like, "wow..."
Suddenly a whole flock of butterflies came towards me and I quickly covered my face with my hands and those butterflies went inside me. I was scared because my body was visible but it was a transplant. I was shocked and quickly started touching my hands and legs. Just then a sweet and melodious voice came from behind.
"Oh! You came quickly."
When I looked back, I saw a strong gust of wind and my hair started flying in the air and the leaves of the trees started falling from my side.
When I looked back, it was the one whose voice it was. I wiped a tear from one of my eyes and instead of wiping it, I was just looking at that person. The wind was blowing from my side and my hair was slowly flying in the air. I was just looking at that person. It seemed as if time was passing slowly and the leaves started falling from the big tree slowly.
His hair was blacker than the darkest night and his eyes were shining like the blue sea, which glowed with even a little light falling on them. His eyelashes were longer than mine and his face and body was so damn perfect that any girl would go crazy after seeing him.
He titled his face slightly in confusion because I wasn't saying anything and just looking at him continually.
"Hello, are you here?" He said while waving his hand slightly in front of my face.
I blinked and I came to my senses. "Are you the one who keeps coming in my dreams?" without wasting any time I asked him because it was more important than his body and face.
He grins, "Hmm what do you think?"
I quickly said, "Without a doubt I know that you are the one who comes in my dreams!"
"No I am not that person" he crossed his arms around him and looks away.
"Yes you are that person" I stomps my one leg slightly in anger.
"No"
"Yes!"
"No"
"Yes!"
"No"
"Yes!" Sits down on the ground angrily "Why aren't you admitting that you are that guy"
Seeing that I'm about to cry he puts his one of the hand on my head and pats lightly.
"Because I'm not that person" he ruffles my hairs some.
I looks up at him. "Then why do you have his face?"
He looks at me and confused slightly and asked me. "Don't you know who's face is it?"
Confusingly I said to him, "what? What do you mean"
"I have taken this face from your memories so you should know" he replied.
"I don't know whose face is this, it only comes in my dreams, but I have never seen this person even once in my life" I replied while pounding slightly.
After listening to me, he goes into deep thought.
I nods in myself slightly, "Hey! Wait but how did you get this face when it's from my memories!"
He glanced at me and grins slightly.
"What ? Why are you grinning at me ?" Crossed my hands on my chest while angry "are you God or something?" Chuckles slightly at my words because there can't be God in front of me when I'm getting on him like this.
"Yes" he said.
"Haha you shouldn't make lame jokes like this" I laughs slightly.
He grin again and replied, "I'm not joking."
I stopped laughing slowly when I see him and blinked sometimes.
After seeing me realizing he nods.
"So... you're a God..?" Still not believing and feels like I'm in space.
He again nods
"Haha.. ha.. so you summoned me here after my death?" Points at myself
He nods and said, "That was your time to die but before dying you did a good deed by saving that girl. So I will give you a chance."
I got up from the ground, "But all these things are already written in one's destiny, right? Then how...?"
He glanced at me and smiles "hmm you are smarter than I thought."
I nods in agreement but realized that he thought I was dumb "wait what-"
"Okay, let's leave this conversation for later and get on the main point" he nods in himself.
I pounds slightly but agree with him "So can you answer my previous question now?" I asked with slightly titled face.
"Oh! That... The fate of every human being is written but only if one wishes to change his fate can he do so." He replied
I listens and nod.
He said, "And you have done a virtuous deed by saving that girl, so I would like to give you another chance."
I said "Hmm... looks at him I want to know about this face"
"ok, then give me your hand for 1 second" he takes my hand in his hands and closed his eyes.
After sometime later, he opened his eyes and looked at me for some seconds.
"I think it's better if you don't know about it"
"Why?"
"This person has not come into your life but he can come" he looks at me with slightly sad eyes.
My eyes sparks slightly, "So this is a very good thing."
He looks at me for sometimes and with pats my head.
"Huh?" Looks at him up and confused.
He Looks at me and still patting my head lightly "I think this is what people call destiny."
"Huh? If you are a human then you should be a know, right?" Confused.
He chuckles at my sentence slightly, "Silly girl, sometimes a God also cannot understand about these things." After listening I got more confused.
"So... tell what do you want now" he looks at with slightly sad eyes like he knows what's going to happen but I didn't understand that moment.
"If I am going to meet this boy in the future then send me to him!" I Smiled brightly.
"But it will be hard for you to live where this boy lives." He said to me.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because he lives in that time when magic and magical creatures were existed on earth... hmm, to be more precise, in the past." he makes flame from his palm and it looked so attractive.
"Wow..." looks at the flame
He chuckles, "let me give you magic power which will make your life a little better there"
I blinked. "What?!"
"So, What type of power do you want to have? Fast-Fast I don't have any more time."
I get nervous and start thinking out loud and when he sees this he laughs slightly, flowers start falling on him. I look at him and make up my mind that I will find him, then I say with a warm smile,"I want the power to make fire like the one you just made with your palm."
He looks at me and smiles, "As you wish, but I would like to give you something from myself as well."
"What?" I asked.
He put one finger on his mouth "Shh, it's a secret" and chuckles lightly.
"don't do this, tell me too!"
"You'll be able to found out about it later" he shrugged.
"it's not fair" pounds.
He laughs slightly now and looks at me "it's time for you to go and always remember that the fate of every human being is written but only if one wishes to change his fate can he do so"
I nods, I started disappearing from my toes, "but ! what is your name?" I knew he was God but I still wanted to know the name of the person who helped me.
He smiles and he grins to myself and said to me, "You can call me Bhagwan or Aritra."
I titled my face slightly and said, "I can say Bhagwan because you are God but Aritra..?"
I disappeared from my toes and reached my stomach.
"you will found out about it later" he grins.
I disappeared from my stomach to my throat "wait why not now-"
"Completely disappeared."
He looked steadily upwards towards the big tree and said, "These things are not told before time..." He sighs slightly, "Now you have a chance... think carefully before taking your steps inthe end"
Very large creatures were flying beside that tree and clouds were passing by it.
