Beyond You

Circular waves of struggle appeared on the the once so calm water surface as a head is pushed in the tank. A struggle to survive, a struggle against time, water song into her nostrils making it impossible to breath. To wiggle out of the claws of death all in vain. After a minute of near death experience she was pulled out breathing heavily, coughing, her hands being tied behind her back, trying to suck a much air as she can to be ready for the next round. In few seconds it started again. After about half hour she was thrown on the dirty floor of that abandoned shabby building on the outskirts of the city. She was lying on the floor all exhausted . The love of her life fists her hair painfully and jerked her towards him, his breath fanning her face and asked for the nth time "do you agree with it now". When he didn't get any answer with bored expressions he grab two fingers of her tied hand bending and twisting brutally causing them to break. Her screams echoed in the the whole building cutting the thick silence of the black moonless night. She was crying loudly with her hand trembling. As this much wasn't enough he unbuckle his belt and stats beating her. "zoey.....Zoey......ZOEY...." She heard someone calling her name shaking her She get up in her bed with a jerk sweating badly, eyes filled with fear it took her some time to take in the surrounding and realizing it's a again a nightmare which is not leaving her from last five years. "What happened?" Asked her roommate concerned."nothing just a nightmare" she replied wiping sweat from her forehead. " And what is it about this time" asked ashi , curious and Zoey replied "I saw you being kidnapped by zombies and then I was there at your rescue with my super powers" She always made up stories to hide her painful memories that's still haunting her. A hell she lived and somehow survived. A past still running behind. Àshi looked at her with raised eyebrows and slight smile then throw a dress at her to get ready for their farewell as it's their last day of college and went to the washroom.
