Chereads / Libra: The Scales / Chapter 2 - I am Scared

Chapter 2 - I am Scared

After such a messy day, Misty didn't want to study. She wanted to know more about what is happening all around the city. It was the first time that Misty could not concentrate on her studies.

After some time, she sits to study then her father arrived home as it was already evening. Misty smiled and thought of talking to her father as she was very close to him and she always share her worries with him.

Everyone calls her father Mr. Singhania as his name was Rajendra Singhania.

-

Whoever meet her father always gets amazed by his personality, people start talking about their personal life to him as if they are long lot friends who are meeting him after a very long time.

He was very thoughtful man who care about everyone whoever is around him but that doesn't decrease his love for his family. He always spend a good time after work with his family with a cup of tea.

-

But that day was different, rather than spending time with his family he rushed to the upper rooms and asked Misty to close all the doors and windows. She asked her father why was he behaving like that but her father was not answering any question of her, Misty started having a bad feeling after seeing her father's behaviour.

Just by seeing the tension on his face she understood that something is wrong and rather wasting time  she ran upside and did what her father asked her to do.

Because of the noise Misty's mother and May both came outside their room.

-

"What's happening, why there is so much noise?" Ms. Singhania asked with tension on her face.

-

May worryingly ask, "Dad, why are you so tensed?"

-

He was sweating, there was fear all over his face and his body was shivering with fear. Misty's mother saw the condition of Mr. Singhania and made him sit on the chair and gave him a glass of water.

-

"Dad what's the matter, you don't look good did something happened" May asked with a tension on her face.

-

He wiped his sweat and try to calm down himself, "They... they are coming, they are going to separate every child from their parents"

-

He was not able to speak anything at a moment and then Mr. Singhania rushed outside and collected everyone neighbouring him and said, "I saw ... I saw a light coming from the sky which is taking our children away from us, we have to protect our children."

-

For a moment everyone kept silent, as it was hard for them to belive something like this. 

-

"what is it true~~"

"It is hard to belive that."

-

They don't know themselves what to say or how to react to what Mr. Singhania was saying. Although Mr. Singhania was a very respectful person of that place, but it was hard for everyone to believe in him, after hearing everyone a silver haired old man came out of the crowd and said

  "I know that it is very critical time for everyone no one knows what to believe or who to believe, but at a time like this we have to be wide awake and protect our kids."

-

Everyone started going to their home after that conversation but the silver haired old man stayed there and started looking at Misty with a strange look and told her to take care of her and her sister.

Misty felt strange after hearing that but she didn't payed any attention toward it and closed the house door.

Misty's family came inside the house but the atmosphere between all of them was very tensed.

-

Misty's mother sat on the chair by holding her head and started speaking, "Now, what are we supposed to do?"

-

Misty's father was not speaking anything, Misty took May in her room for rest.

May was so scared that her whole body was shivering, "Sis, I am so scared what... what will happen to us, are those people are going to take us away from our parents?"

Misty was not knowing what to say or how to console May.
