Dream
When I woke up, I was puzzled. My dream was scary. Honestly, I can almost remember everything. Well, this dream happened after the terrorists attack. I have had quite a few dreams about this attack. This was the first one. I was down playing with my friends, Maria, Vidhi, Riddhi and Saanya, when they somehow leave me alone outside the building.
Suddenly, Abdul grabs my hand and takes ma out of the building into maker arcade. I was pleasantly surprised and asked him what was going on. Then I realised that he was crying. I was so shocked! I tried to clam him down and the he told me his story. He said that he was sorry and that there were terrorists on their way to hijack our building he couldn't say anything more otherwise his father would be killed. He said that they would kill everybody and hence he took me out so that I would not die. I told him that I couldn't stand there and do nothing!! He said that he was sorry again but couldn't help it he just had to save his father. I immediately called my house, Vidhi, Ariana, Sunera and told them to get out right now.
. Abdul tried to calm me down but he was in such a pathetic state himself that he could not do anything much. I asked him why he wanted to save me only and that was when he said that somehow he just had to save me. That was all that mattered to him. *Sigh* I couldn't bear it. He looked so agonized. I wished I could help him. I asked him to tell me everything and I told him that he could trust me.
. But it was of no use as he said that he would not tell me anything that would put me in danger. Then my family, my friends all arrived and as soon as they came Abdul left. They asked me what was going on and I and I told tem that somehow I heard somebody talking on the phone saying that terrorists were about to hijack our building and told them to run away somewhere else immediately and not to call the police… they went without a word looking at my facial expression. I searched for Abdul and finally found him. He was talking on the phone. After he finished he broke down. We were still outside the arcade
:
. We were still outside the arcade in a small corner. He suddenly looked at me and said that they had killed his father and mother and that he had no desire to live. I tried to stop him but he removed a dagger from his pocket and killed himself. He then said, "Take care, I will always look after you"
He died. I suddenly realized that. It was my fault. I was so shocked that I couldn't even cry.
Abdul's body lay in my arms. He was dead. Because he tried to save me. I couldn't take it any longer. I wrote a note to my friends and family saying that I loved them and that I had no more desire to be alive though I would always be with them. And took the same dagger and killed myself. There was no pain. And then it was over.
