Shama’s ragged breaths echoed through the dark forest. Tap. Tap. Tap. Her shoes pounded against the forest floor, the rhythm erratic, fueled by panic. A sharp pain throbbed in her forehead where blood trickled down, and her clothes clung to her skin, drenched in crimson. Her legs trembled, exhaustion threatening to overwhelm her, but she forced herself to keep moving. "I didn’t do it," she whispered between gasps. "I... I didn’t—" She dared a glance behind her, her heart hammering, expecting someone to emerge from the shadows. But in that fleeting moment, her foot caught on a rock. She fell. The forest floor rushed up to meet her, and the world around her dimmed as everything went black. --- Earlier that day, Shama lay sprawled across her bed, lost in the colorful pages of her favorite comic book, *Mystical World of Mythical Creatures*. She giggled to herself as her eyes danced across the familiar illustrations and stories she knew by heart. "Why can’t life be like this?" she sighed dreamily. Clasping her hands together, she closed her eyes. "God, please, just once—let me experience a magical world." Her phone’s ringtone cut through her thoughts, and with a groan, she rolled over and answered. "Have you checked the results yet?" Tara’s voice chirped through the line. Shama bolted upright. "Oh no! I forgot today was result day!" She grabbed her laptop, typing frantically. As the page loaded, she crossed her fingers and squeezed her eyes shut. "Please, please let it be good..." When she peeked at the screen, her breath caught. "I topped the state?" she whispered in disbelief. Tara’s laughter burst through the phone. "And you’re on the front page of the newspaper, miss topper!" "Wait, what?!" Shama blinked, stunned. "I can’t believe this. I really—" "Believe it, girl! Now, where’s my celebration?" Tara teased. "Domino’s in fifteen minutes," Shama declared. "My treat." "On my way!" Tara whooped, hanging up. Shama jumped off her bed and threw on fresh clothes. Before rushing out, she paused at the door and glanced back at her room, where the comic book lay open on her bed. With a smile, she shut the door behind her. As soon as the door clicked shut, an unsettling silence filled the room. The comic book glowed softly, its pages flipping on their own as the ink slowly vanished, leaving the paper blank. From the darkness, a voice whispered: "It’s time." --- The aroma of cheese and garlic filled the air as Shama entered Domino’s. Tara was already waving from a corner booth, her excitement practically vibrating off her. "There you are!" Tara beamed. "Okay, here’s my order: cheeseburger, paneer pizza, Coke, and dessert. All on you!" "You’re going to bankrupt me!" Shama groaned, sliding into the seat. Tara gave her a playful pout. "You said a ‘special treat,’ remember?" Shama tossed a napkin at her. "Fine, fine. But you’d better eat it all." They laughed, chatting and taking selfies while waiting for their food. Tara had a way of making everything feel light and joyful. She was Shama’s anchor—her first real friend, the one who had pulled her out of her darkest days. The hours flew by, and soon they were stepping out into the cool night air. Tara gave Shama a tight hug and kissed her cheek. "See you tomorrow at school, love!" "Love you too," Shama said with a laugh, watching as Tara hopped onto her bike and rode off into the night. With a content sigh, Shama began her walk home. The streets buzzed with life—cars honking, people chatting, neon signs flickering above shop windows. As she strolled, she spotted two children playing ahead of her. They tripped over each other and tumbled to the ground, giggling as their mother rushed over to scoop them up. Shama smiled at the scene, her heart warming. For a moment, everything felt right with the world. --- When she reached her apartment, the air inside felt strange—heavier than usual, as if something was lurking just beneath the surface. She brushed off the feeling and kicked off her shoes, tossing her purse into the closet. The exhaustion of the day hit her all at once. She collapsed onto her bed, pulling the blankets around her. But just as sleep began to pull her under, a sharp pain shot through her head, dragging her back into wakefulness. She groaned, reaching for the water on her nightstand—but the dizziness was too much. The room spun, and darkness claimed her. --- When Shama opened her eyes, she wasn’t in her room anymore. Her heart skipped a beat. Everything around her was hazy, and the air was thick with the metallic scent of blood. Then she saw her. A girl stood in front of her, clutching her stomach. Blood seeped between her fingers, staining her skin red. Tears streamed down her pale face, her eyes filled with pain and betrayal as they locked onto Shama’s. "Why?" the girl whispered, her voice barely audible. Shama’s breath hitched. Her mind swirled with confusion. "W-What...?" she stammered, her voice shaky. Her gaze drifted downward—and that’s when she saw it. A knife was buried deep in the girl’s stomach, and the handle was gripped tightly in Shama’s hand. A wave of horror crashed over her. "No… no, I didn’t…" she whispered, her hand trembling as she released the knife. The girl coughed, a wet, gurgling sound, and blood dribbled from her mouth. Her knees buckled, and she collapsed onto the ground, her hands weakly clutching the knife still lodged in her abdomen. Shama stumbled backward, her heart pounding against her ribcage. "This isn’t real. It can’t be real," she whispered, tears blurring her vision. She pressed her hands to her mouth, trying to suppress the rising scream in her throat. Her mind raced, desperate for answers. "Where am I? Who is she? What’s happening?" But the world gave her no answers—only the haunting image of the girl’s lifeless body, surrounded by a pool of dark, glistening blood."Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff!"A panting voice echoed in the dark forest.“Tap, Tap, Tap”The shoes made noise in the silent night as Shama ran, her breath coming in ragged gasps.Fear filled her eyes. Blood trickled down her head, and her clothes were soaked in crimson color. Her body trembled, and her energy was waning. Still, she ran. She couldn't stop...Not now."I have to get out of here," she gasped. "I...I didn't do that."She glanced back over her shoulder, expecting to see someone chasing her. But as soon as she did, she tripped over a rock and collapsed to the ground, unconscious.*Earlier that day... *"Ahhhh... It's so cute. "Shama squealed in delight as she lay on her cozy bed, reading a comic book. As a kid, she had an immense love for fiction and soon to be 18, the girl still hadn't left her childhood hobby. "Why don't these stories exist in real life? God, please, please just once, I wanna experience the fictional world"She squeezed her eyes shut, palms together in a pra
Shama sat inside the car. She looked at the busy road and crowded footpath of the city. She missed these things very much. Modern world is the most beautiful place. Just then Shama remembered her Kingdome. She felt that she missed them more. She wanted to go back there and be with all of them. “Ansh…” Shama whispered as she closed her eyes and Ansh’s smiling face came to her mind. “You told me that when I will call you, you will come here to me…You said that wherever I am…You will find me and stay by my side forever…Then why you aren’t here. Ansh I miss you…” Shama thought as she clenched her fist. She reached the studio. She stepped out of the car as body guards protected her. In front of her stood a big building. She walked inside the beautiful building. “You are here…Come on you have to get ready for the shoot. Hurry up.” A guy told her as he hurriedly pushed her inside the makeup room. Just by looking at him Shama could und

*Real Shama’s scenario*Shama woke up feeling cold. She opened her eyes and saw herself lying on a cold floor. She sat up and looked around. It was a big hall. Lights were shining brightly on the ceiling. AC was at 26 °C which was keeping the room cold. In front of Shama was a big mirror attached to the whole wall.Shama looked at herself in the mirror with unbelievable eyes. She was in her real body. Her hair curly and long hair was open. A big round earing was in her ear. A little beautiful pendent was in her neck. She wore an oversized top with pants. She wore snickers in her feet. Her body was sweating even in AC. It was like she just worked out or danced…Shama’s face had light makeup making her look pretty. She looked like a celebrity and her room was like a dance practice room.“But the question is that…I am a poor orphan…Then what the hell am I doing here like this?”Shama thought as she stood up. Ju
Ansh rushed to the imperial doctor. He laid Shama down.“Doctor…Doctor please save her…”Ansh said in a shaky voice. His voice was barely coming out. Just then Shama took a deep breath and her pulse came back. A dim red light glowed in her body.“Shama…You…Are…Alright?”Ansh said happily as he wiped his tears and took Shama’s hands in her hand. Her hands were cold. He rubbed her hands.“Please…You will be alright…Right?”Ansh said as tears dropped down on Shama’s hands.The doctor checked up on Shama.“I did everything that I can…But couldn’t find the cause of this. It was unusual as if the soul in her body left then came back…Something like this? But isn’t this illogical?”The doctor said laughing at his own words. But Ansh seemed lost somewhere else.“I don’t belong t
“I have one more thing for you.”Ansh said as he stood up and gave a hand to Shama.“What is it?”Shama asked.“Why do you always ask? Don’t you trust me? Then come with me.”Ansh said. Shama sighed and was about to walk when Ansh held Shama close by her waist. Shama looked at Ansh in a surprise.“Step on my feet.”Ansh said as he grabbed Shama closer and tighter.“What the-”“Shhh…Just do what I am saying you to do.”Ansh cut Shama in between. Shama looked at him and then stepped on his feet. Ansh jumped off the cliff. Shama shouted in terror. But then everything went smooth. Ansh held Shama tightly and was slowly going down the mountain. Shama peeked out and looked down. It was really deep valley. Shama looked at Ansh in a shock. Ansh smiled at Shama. Shama hugged Ansh tightly as she feared to fall.“It’s ok&h
Shama was resting in her bedroom. Though it was a wonderful day, she wasn’t feeling good at all. She was feeling like something bad is gonna happen. Her heart was beating rapidly and for no reason tears were falling out of her eyes.“Why…I can’t understand what’s wrong…Why am I feeling like all this won’t last long?”Shama thought as she covered herself with blanket. She hugged the pillow tightly to comfort herself.Five year old Shama was running around on the soft glass with bare feet. She happily laughed as the cool wind hit her face gently. A little girl who was about the same age as her was running after her.“Hey, catch me if you can.”Shama shouted at the girl in a teasing voice and ran away from there. The girl also chased after Shama.“Wait and watch…I will catch you for sure.”She shouted from behind. Just then Shama heard a weeping voice. She t
Shama opened her yes. Ansh’s sleeping face greeted her. Shama stared at him. He was looking surprisingly handsome today. Shama quietly tiptoed out of the bed and left the room. She reached a room. It was filled with paintings. Shama opened the curtains to let the sunlight come in. The beautiful sunrays lighted up the whole room. The colourful paintings in the room shined in the sunlight. Shama removed the cloth from the canvas kept in the middle of the room. Shama sat on the seat. She smiled as she opened the colour box. She took the paint brush in her hand and dipped it in the paint. She started painting something on the canvas. Ansh woke up. He touched the bed but didn’t found anyone. He quickly opened his eyes and saw that Shama was no where to be seen. He worriedly looked around for Shama but he wasn’t seen in the whole castle. Ansh was frustrated now. He again went around the whole palace. Just then his eyes fell on a room in the corner. It looked like it was st
Ansh saw Shama. Her eyes were changing expressions. Ansh looked at her in a shock. As this was the first time he was watching something like this. Her eye expressions were changing per second. Just then Shama went quiet. Ansh looked at her.“Shama?”He called out but there was no response from her. Ansh went close to her and touched her shoulders. Just then Shama grabbed his hand tightly and shrugged his hand off her shoulder. She gave Ansh a glare. Ansh was shocked to see Shama reacting like this. Her eyes were emotionless as she went out of the bed towards the window. She quietly stared at the night sky.Ansh quietly stared at Shama. Shama closed her eyes and hummed the same tune again. Her heart was filled with sadness.“Shama…It’s me…Ansh…Can’t you recognise me?”Ansh asked. But Shama just stared at him and again started looking at the sky.“Shama-”“Ansh&h
