Leila was doing a role-play drama on the stage. All the people there were mesmerized by her beauty and her acting but two dark eyes fixed on her was up to no good. Damien took out his phone. He dialled a number... "I want you to kidnap a girl. Her name is Leila. I will send you the address. Drop her there..." He said with an evil smirk playing on his lips. Leila didn't know that her little mistake would make her life more miserable. She messed up with the wrong man. Damien was now sitting peacefully gawking her like a hunter to his prey.
*Lelia p.o.v
The hostel was chaotic. All the girls were running out of the corridors. The fire caught the whole place. My heart was racing at a fast pace. I didn't know how to run out of this room. I didn't even know if I will live today or burnt down with this building.
My head was pounding as the smoke was going in my nostrils. I covered my nose with my hands coughing badly. I can feel it the smoke was making it hard to breathe. My eyes were red, I didn't want to cry. I didn't want to lose my will power, I didn't want to give up. But I think my time has come... I will be dead here.
I shouted for help, I cried. I heard everyone leaving the building... The cries of girls, I did cry for help. But no one heard my plea. I can see the flames in the corridor. I can see my death in front of my eyes. AND, I gave up!!! Should I want to live?
There is nothing out there for me to live for... Only my soul. Does this life mean anything to anyone? No, I am alone in this world.
After my parents, no one cared. I will not lie, I have thought to end this life so many times... But didn't dare to do it. I was scared.
But now when I am seeing the death in front of my eyes. I am not frightened, I want to accept the fact that it's over.
My life is going to end here and I will find peace forever... I shrieked back in the corner. The flames of during were reaching up to me. I don't want to feel the pain of burning, I think this smoke will advocate me first!!! I cried and cried.
The pain that was buried in my heart, I let it out... I remember the death of my parents, I grieved on my loose. I remember my brother leaving me alone here, I remembered the betrayal of my best friend.
Does this happen to everyone? Do people conduct your emotions by backstabbing you? I don't know but I can feel my life is miserable enough!!! AND the event happened to me in the hostel, I have lost the last thing that was my self-respect. That man ruined everything. What he did took my self-confidence and self-respect from me, I become a culprit in everyone's eyes. I will never forgive him, I will never forget what he did with me' I hate that man so much...
There is a limit of pain and hurt, I have seen enough. No, I am not strong enough to fight for myself. I think it's better if I close my eyes accepting my fate.
I closed my eyes, I moved away from the hand from my nose. I was starting the flames and the smoke.
I closed my eyes when suddenly only I heard a loud bang.
"Damn it!!! There she is... Get her out." I heard someone shouting ordering people. The voice sounds familiar but I don't know if I can recognise it. I was unable to see anything, due to smoke and fire. My eyes were burning.
My head was being dizzy, I can feel the pain of losing breath. I was feeling it. I was feeling as someones were pulling out the soul from my body. It hurts so bad. But this pain is nothing compared to what I felt in the last few days.
I saw a blurred vision of two men rushing towards me. I think that's it. I am close to death. Finally, I will be free from all the agony. I sadly smiled when someone picked me up in their arms. I.claoed my eyes to engulf the peaceful sleep of death.
It was all dark but I was not at peace. I felt a little sting of pain in my arm and after that, I didn't remember anything...
