Its a cold morning, once again I've had last night's nightmare.If only i could interpret that dream then i would know what's haunting me.she had long pointed teeth in my dream, her smile was evil yet i could sense her yearning for my love, she craved for my heart to be hers.
"It cant be true, who's she?.Why does she want me?", i asked myself while letting myself fall on my bed with a sigh of frustration.
Weeks have passed and the same nightmare kept on repeating itself, at times i could feel the presence of someone in my room but when i woke up I only found darkness ruling like an emperor savaging my room from corner to corner, up the ceiling and down the floor.
Confusion and frustration became part of my life.I could sometimes feel her in my head calling my name yet i couldnt see her face.
Tuesday night, am about to go to sleep, I already wore my Pajamas.
Wait!
I can hear footsteps heading to my bathroom.The bathroom door sudenly swung open and i cant believe what am seeing, i gasped while my lips refused to stick to each other and my heart vigorously pumped my blood.Adrenaline was produced and it ran down my spine.It is said that its a hormone of fight or flight but at the moment I wasnt in a position to do any of those except seating with my mouth wide waiting for the devil or demon or vampire, whichever the case to avail itself.
"Hello Jayden", A familiar voice spoke.
Yes, I knew this voice, she was the woman who gave me sleepless nights, the woman who had gotten into my head and always called out my name.But, how could this be?
" Who are you?"
" Call me Anything"
Anything?That sounded more hillarious than rude.
"If I were to choose any name i would call you a devil, coward" I said trying to provoke her.
But wait a minute I was provoking someone invisible!
" Avail yourself"
"I will do that but before then i want to prepare you physchologically, You are my husband from the second world"
Second world?How?When and where?
"Am not married, you evil spirit, do you hear me?"
She didnt respond, i called out again and again but it was all in vain
"Dear husband you shouldnt call me an evil spirit again otherwise I'll have to use you as dinner.GOODNIGHT"
Next morning I found myself lying on my bed while my head spinned.I had to go to work and i was already late from the look of things.The sun shone brightly and rays penetrated through my glass windows to my heavy eyes making me blink several times before slowly opening my eyes and lifting my heavy legs to the bathroom.
As i opened the bathroom door i already found a hot bath prepared, but why wasnt i surprised?I hoped i wasnt getting used to her but i still had to thank her for the bath or else I would be really late to work.
As I walked down my stairs I could smell the sweet scent of Chapatis and ginger tea.But this time i would accept such an offer from an invisible spirit so I just went straight to the front door and opened it.For once i thought she would stop me but to my surprise she didnt.
