"Wake up Ciza, we need you ,we really need you, you need to wake up!
Ciza!
Ciza!!
Ciza!!!." , Ciza woke up in cold sweat, his hands were shaking and his mouth was dry, what was that dream that he had? What did it mean? He had no idea, but he was having that dream for quite some time now. It was still the dead night, there was no sound , the silence was periodically broken by the ticking of the clock, Ciza pulled himself out of his bed, he needed some water, whenever he sleeps he keeps a bottle beside his bed, he picked it up and opened the cap and started to drink, as water slowly replinished his body he slowly started to get chills, the feelings ,someones cry for help, he couldn't remember what the dream was but he surely remembered what he felt.
He sat there for sometime, his eyes moved towards the clock and he got to know it was 3.10 am, it's better to sleep, he has work tomorrow.
Ciza lives alone, his parents died when he was small, he was brought up by his aunt , who was unmarried, she also died 2 years back, so Ciza moved out of that home, he couldn't stomach that house, all the feelings, all the love that his aunt had for him was there but his aunt was not, he would sit there and cry without any reason, whenever he sat in that sofa, he remembered his aunt and a gripping sadness clutched his heart, he couldn't do anything but cry, so he left that house and took a job, he now lives in Kolkata.
Ciza woke up at around 8 o'clock and started to make himself some breakfast, he took out the eggs, poured some milk to boil and was bent infront of his fridge searching for the bread.
"The bread his here!", Ciza turned around(he lives alone), there was a man, taller than him , the man was wearing an all black attire, a coat and pant with a black shirt and black shoes, he even had black round glasses on, he had his hair tied in a ponytail.
"Who are you ?", Ciza was scared,
"Now now don't get all tensed up my KING!", the man spoke.
"KING ?"
"Yes!", the man took a slice of bread and started eating it.
"Me ?", Ciza asked in confusion.
"I dont see no other man here."
"Who are you? and what are you doing in my house ? and how did you even get in.", Ciza shouted.
"Oye Oye, easy now, lets sit and talk."
Ciza slowly picked up the knife he had in the fridge and pointed it towards the man, "Tell me, how did you get in?"
"That is a butter knife my boy, that wont kill nobody."
Ciza looked down , he didn't think much about it but a butterknife in a fight is as useless as old politicians in a country.
"I don't care what knife this is , I can still harm you.", after saying this Ciza threw the knife towards the man and in an instant the man disappeared and appeared infront of Ciza, he lowered his body and whispered in Ciza's ear,
"I need you to sleep." , and then punched him in his stomach, this happened so fast that it didn't even take 2 seconds.
