Chapter 37

My breathing is heavy.

I'm back in the dark again. Why am I in the dark again? I tried to run.

My legs were moving but I couldn't fight off the darkness. It was beginning to suck me in, making me suffocated.

I wanted to get out of here.

It was too scary and frightening.

'Abu?! Ammi?!' I screamed.

'Please save me. I don't want to be here!' I screamed at the top of my lungs.

I wanted my parents. I wanted their warm embrace.

'Please Ammi Abu! Please save me!' I cried and hugged myself. I wanted some signs of warmth that I craved. This darkness was pulling me in, making me lose my mind.

I ran again.

Then I heard a sound.

All of a sudden, my legs began to carry me towards a sound. I was relieved. Someone was here. Maybe they could help me out of this darkness.

It was faint but it got clearer when I got near it.

I stopped when I saw him. His strong built back was facing me.

His face was away.

I felt cold terror grip at my being when I saw this monster.

He wasn't human.
