A smile made its way on Anna's lips as she just nodded in reply

Hearing the door knock Noora wiped her tears off. as Anna went to open the door of her room.

"Anna I'm hungry!" standing on the door Maria utter

Another day Anna was waiting for Maria, standing Outside of her school, the weather was freezing, rubbing her hands together to build some heat, Anna looked at the door from where the little kids were running out happily going towards their family members,

as they just got free from some jail.

smiling at the kid's Anna again looked at the door looking for Maria but no one came out, making Anna worried.

She made her way inside to look for her,

"Excuse me? do you know the girl I daily pick u, where is she?" going inside she asked the gatekeeper about Maria with worry written on her face

but hearing his words made her more worried

"She left early today with a guy, he said he's her big brother!" the gatekeeper utter

"Why did you let her go!?" closing her eye as she knew that's no point in arguing with this old man she made her way outside without hearing him.

Hopping on her bike she directly made her way towards the police station.

---------

Walking inside the police station she searched for the same officer who handled the case before

"Excuse me where is the officer deen?"

looking for the officer she asked

"He's not here yet!" hearing the words she does not want to hear makes her more worried

Her anxiety was once again taking a place, standing in the middle of a police station, her vision goes black as she falls fainted.

----------------------

A girl laying down in a hospital ward

a black night sky was shown from the only window of that dark room,

opening her eyes she only sees the darkness with the only hint of moonlight, she tried to sit up, looking at the side table she tried to find some water as she suddenly felt her throat getting dry, but there was nothing to that she can use to get rid for her sudden thirst,

"Water" asking for water a whisper came out of her dry lips, but there was no one to listen

"Water" asking again she looked to her sides but didn't see anyone

She was all alone in that hospital ward, that lonely dark place didn't make her scared of anything, she was used to this, getting up from that hospital bed she stumbled wall towards the window, standing in front she tried to open the only window which was the only way of light in that ward, trying her best but the window didn't move from its place, she again gives one more try but nothing helped.

Giving up she walked back to her ward bed, sitting down she suddenly felt no oxygen, breathing loudly she tried to fill her lungs with the only oxygen in that ward but nothing helped.

She didn't felt any oxygen and her throat was still thirsty~
