Fate and Death

PART 1: Rin... the girl.

Hi, I am Rin. I am 21 years old with many hobbies like reading, cooking and boxing, I have won many state level Boxing Championships, I think I have got this hobby cause of my dad. Afterall my dad was a boxer and a International level Boxing Champion himself as well as my master. And I also like Karate a bit.

Ohhhh.. before I forget... I'm also a student of National Science University, they say it is one of the best universities in world but I never felt that way, I think it is boring I sleep almost all the time in class. Now you must be thinking why am I here then? You know my best friend Cherry is here, she prepared very hard to get in this University so I didn't want to force her for any other university and anyway it was no big deal for me to get in here, I have so many awards and medals they're not just for show, I used them and get in here via Sports Category.

Ohhh and ummmm.... you know I also have a big secret I had never told about it to anyone till now. When I was a kid I used to see hazy images behind people like shadows, sometimes these shadows laugh, sometimes they cry, sometimes these shadows even leave them. It was like this untill I turned twelve. When I turned twelve my health suddenly started to get bad day by day and after few months I even stopped going to school. I used to stay all time at home with mom and dad. Dad used to leave us occasionally for his boxing tournaments and at that time I use to watch his boxing videos all the time. When he come back home, I use to copy his moves and practice those on him. At first dad and mom was scared when I do those moves, they were worried about my weakening body I think.

It was when my fifteenth birthday was coming when I saw a strang dream a very scary dream, my parents death. A woman was stabbing my dad over and over again after then she went to closet and took out some of the dad's shirts and other clothes and then went to another room where my mom was sleeping while sitting on the couch. She came in front of my mom and start tying mom hands and legs with dad's clothes after that she took one of the two glass of water on the table and threw the water in it on mom's face she even threw the glass at her face. Mom woke up her head was bleeding now, tried to move his leg and hand, the woman was still sitting there with a strang satisfying smile on her face and that bloodied knife on the table. She start saying something to mom. Mom was screaming at her. Suddenly the woman said something hearing that mom stopped screaming and shouting but a stream of water started flowing from her eyes, she was crying silently now. Mom and that woman started talking. After a while mom closed her eyes, the woman stood up took that knife and slides that knife touching mom's neck.

I woke up, my bedsheet soaking wet. I might have wet my bed. When I woke up I was screaming shouting ...mom.. dad... noooo.. please don't... please... mom.. dad... maybe I was even crying at that time. I suddenly realized someone was hugging me tightly and saying something like.. honey wake up.. I looked who was hugging me, it was my mom, her eyes moistened, her face looking like she's terrified of something.

After seeing mom, I immediately started crying. The first thing which came into my mind ' where is dad? '..

" Mom where is dad? " I asked in a hoarse voice.

" Honey, what happened? Why were you crying and calling me and dad? asked mom with a sigh of relief when she saw I am finally awake and alright.

" Mom I want to see dad " I told her with a firm expression and teary eyes.

" Honey, Dad went to Aunt Marie's house this morning, she had just returned from US last night with his little baby, so dad had gone to help her at her house" said mom "don't worry he'll return till evening with auntie then we will have a dinner together tonight ".

" No no mom I want to see dad right now " I said immediately. I had never seen Aunt Marie, she was my dad's and mom's friend from their college days but she left the country few months before my parents married apparently she got a high paying job offering there. She didn't even come when her old father died. Once Dad was in US for a competition where he got heavily injured and had to be admitted there in hospital for few months and it was Auntie who saw after him and helped him the most during that time alongside the mom. After that dad frequently use to visit US to meet her every year. But still she was unknown to me, she had never returned back to country before now even her house here was maintained by us. So now due to my strange dream I subconsciously started feeling wariness from any unknown woman I have never seen.

" Honey, you have just woke up. You must have had a bad dream. How about you go fresh yourself and I go call your dad and ask him to come back with your aunt and her baby. What you say? " suggested mom.

" Mom, how about you took me there and we all will help auntie with her house there. Today we can even stay there till dinner." I counter suggested with determined eyes ' I wanna see dad, I wanna see dad, I wanna see dad....' written in them.

" ok fine you win, we are going to see your auntie, but first go change your clothes if you don't want your auntie to think that you still pee in your pants " sighed mom in a matter of factly tone.

I looked down and saw that mom is right. With an embarrassed expression and red face I jumped out of the bed and ran for cleaning myself.
