Dream : A Reality?

Standing in a balcony of a beautiful mansion, having tea sip by sip, Ripun looked around at the surroundings, wandering at her imagination, she couldn't resist complementing her own fantasy. Well! how great it feels to be in a world differnt from my reality!! she thought to herself. Though she was quite contented with what she had in her life, still she always felt there was something missing and she could never make out what was lacking in her so called perfect life.

Lemme enjoy while I still can..... in my dreams atleast ! Ripun exclaimed.

Just as she was about to come into the room of her imagination as she thought, she saw a tall man, having handsome face with attractive features, ofcourse it was not her husband who was no less handsome than any Greek God, she wondered who he was and why he was there in her dreams.

"Well ! its not that bad to flirt around and relive the joy of youth I have long forgotten. "Ripun thought.

Just as she was about to initiate the conversation, the handsome man came and held her by his arm around her neck. Ripun couldn't get time to react as she was still in a shock.

"Who are you and how are you here?"said he while thinking.....Who can dare to come in my room when even the wind needs my permission to enter it.

Although Ripun was taken aback by whatever happened in a spur of moment, but still her heart wasn't flustered by what was taking place around her. She took a deep breath and assured herself that it was just a dream. She will be able to tackle the situation and if not she will wake up before she gets into trouble.

The man tightened his grip and reminded her to reply to whatever he asked her. Ripun relaxed herself and said "Hello,I am Ripun ."

Hearing the response, the man asked further,"I haven't asked for your introduction, but I want to know what is your real identity and what are you doing in my room? What are your intentions or is it that you are spying on me ?

By now Ripun was tired of his questions and thought that she had enough of it, though she was quite fascinated by his outstanding handsomeness. She thought it was time to end this dream of hers which was getting bothersome. She closed her eyes and strive hard to get out of this whole fantasy drama. From where the man had her held by her neck, he could see her weird expressions in the mirror hung on the oppsite wall to where they were standing. He was wondering that the woman was quite strange as to what he knew that even his enemies were afraid to encounter him in their dreams and here was this woman who was not just relaxed but also there was no hint of fear on her face. It had happened for the very first time during his life span of a hundred and fifty years.Moreover she was dressed in quite a unique attire, much different from what other women of his world wore.

Ripun opened her eyes and was surprised to see what she found herself in.
