Nitya woke up, panicking with a light scream. She was lucky enough that her brother was a heavy sleeper, or else she would have been in deep trouble. She looked at the time, it was still 1:30 at night. She instinctively reached out for her phone to message Surbhi. But the thought of her best friend and twin cancelling all plans and running back to her made her drop the idea and she decided to deal with it herself. She thought of grabbing a hot chocolate and taking a small walk to clear her mind and analyse what she had just experienced from a fresh perspective.
She opened her door and walked to the kitchen, trying to not make any noise.
She had pretty much succeeded in her plan, when the pan betrayed her and jumped down from the slab to commit suicide, making her contemplate the same option for herself- her brother might be a heavy sleeper but he was not Aurora that he would never wake up!
