Chapter 24

Two expected figures were dozing on the bedside by side. There was sufficient space between them but their hands were entwined with each other. Quick breathing sounds were clear and crisp in that pitch dark room with only a thin ray of moonlight entering inside through the periphery of a glass window.

The female figure shifted and twitched in the bed and her breathing evolved speedily. She squeezed the male's hand tight and then opened her eyes in horror.

A sinful dream, yes, she saw a sinful dream. Again, the female figurine, Scarlett saw a bad dream where she saw a man enmeshed inside a wooden cell, his hands tied to the hooks above his head and toes almost touching the floor. She couldn't remember anything about the facade because it sagged low and looked weary as if someone had pulled out his soul from the body. All she remembered was witnessing a huge wooden cell in a dim-lit room. The man wore an old-style white robe and a straw belt around his waist. It looked as if he was beaten up.

Suddenly an outpour of water came over her face and she felt as if she was drowning in water. She was panting for air. She twisted and turned in her sleep. Sweat was visible on her forehead, her breathing intensely swift, and yet she wasn't able to open her eyes. She felt as if she was suffocated and her soul was taken apart. Liam woke up due to this sudden moment near him. He saw her condition and shook her shoulder to bring her out of the nightmare. After the third try when she didn't wake up, he lifted her up, and now Scarlett was finally out of her bad dream. It took a few moments for her to return back to her senses.

Next morning

The dream was haunting the poor girl. All she was thinking was about last night. She felt as if she saw herself in the mirror but it was impossible for her to be that man. She had so many missing pieces of information in her brain that she was supposed to solve. Moreover, she somehow felt that the man looked like Liam, but she felt as if she was inside that man. This concluded that in the dream she was in Liam's body.

Scarlett was so engrossed in her thoughts that the omelet on the pan got half burnt and she paid no heed to that. Liam was downstairs in his coat pants ready for work. He smelled the burnt omelet and quickly turned off the stove.

"Scarlett, where are you lost?", he asked. Scarlett shook her head and then forced a smile. "What's wrong? You can share with me..hmm", as usual, Liam was concerned for her.

Scarlett shook her head and continued to cook another omelet for her husband.

That day was very gloomy for Scarlett. Her face looked pale. She was getting a feeling of uneasiness as if something wrong was going to happen which she was unable to make out. Her inner self was getting tensed. Also, she got a bad vibe that it is something related to Liam. She also called Liam thrice to confirm that he was safe and sound.

When the boy was back home at 7 in the evening, Scarlett got relieved and she finally was seen smiling. They indeed were soulmates. The sadness on one's face when the other was suffering was clearly visible. Sometimes they would understand each other without even speaking a word. Scarlett though mute thought that she could converse to Liam through emotions and eyes.

That night Liam and Scarlett sat in front of the television watching a movie. They remembered how they once used to watch anime movies. Liam proceeded to watch an action film to which Scarlett agreed. But she was more than lost in her thoughts than the movie. Liam turned his head towards her twice to check on her. He looped a hand around her to take her out from her thoughts.

Scarlett looked at him with glossy eyes. Yes, she was crying. But why?

Liam's heart clenched on seeing his soulmate in a miserable condition.

"What happened silly girl? Why are you crying?", he asked in his usual friendly tone.

Liam and Scarlett shared every bond, friends, mentor, parents, lovers, and saviors for each other. That is how "soulmates" actually are. They understand each other without expressing their pain, sorrow, or happiness. They are spiritually connected and they just know that they are meant for each other. That is how Liam and Scarlett were. Complete soulmates.

Scarlett did some gestures and she finally told him," I don't feel good. I feel that something wrong is going to happen. Someone is ....someone is going to break us...apart".

She finally told him with a lot of pain and then burst out crying.

"Why do you feel like that?" asked Liam.

"I don't know", she gestured again. Then she threw her hands around him and cried her heart out. This was unbearable for Liam to see her in such a miserable condition. His heart ached to see her cry. He hugged her back and planted lots of kisses on her head.

"Can we not distract you in some way?" he asked.

"Yess", she nodded.

Her forehead rubbed on his white t-shirt which had turned transparent because of her tears. "I want to show you something", Liam said. Scarlett looked at him and then he whipped her tears and took her into his study.

Liam switched his laptop on and opened a folder named "Silly girl". Next Scarlett saw were her pictures which were only candid. That folder had every click of hers...Scarlett smiling, eating, dancing, and doing every possible thing she loves.

The next 2 hours were gone just reminiscing the back story of every picture and how Liam succeeded in capturing all of them secretively. He told her that he clicks one picture of her every morning and every night. It had been 43 days since they got married so he had 86 photos of her. Sleep took over the duo after some time and they headed towards the bedroom.

This time they decided to sleep without any gaps between them owing to Scarlett's bad dreams.

That night Scarlett saw that man's face in her dream and then she heard a voice which said, "DIE".....
