SARAH'S POV
“Granny is it you?” I ask in my shaky voice.
“It’s me, my darling.” She said holding my hand.
And it felt surreal.
Her touch is surreal.
She is here for real.
“Oh, granny” I leapt on her, feeling her hand in real life. Gosh, it's still so soft and warm.
“Why did you leave me alone tell me? I complain to the only person I have in my life.
I felt warmth after an age while being in her arms.
How I missed being in her embrace.
“I never left you my child, I was always with you. Don’t you know this?” She asked me with her sweet voice which reached in my ears like a melody.
She was creasing my hair and I wasn’t losing my tight hold on her while fearing she might leave me again.
Somewhere I know she is not real. I am hallucinating but it feels surreal and I want to enjoy this moment as much as I can.
“Can you take me with you this time please?” i Asked her in a low voice. I don’t want to be part of this mean world.
“Darling I know you are broken this time but this is not over yet. Your time hasn’t come. You have a long life ahead.” Her soft hands were doing magic on my body while creasing me lovingly.
“No granny, I am done here. That’s it, please I want to go with you please.” I said and my hiccups had speedup.
“No darling not yet. You have a long way to go. Live your life the way you want.” She said while I felt her soft lips on my forehead.
“There must be somewhere someone very special waiting for my princess.” She giggled at her joke and I scoffed at hearing this.
“God has forgotten to make that special for me. I was born alone and lived alone and I will die alone. So stop dreaming and stop giving me false hope.” I said venting out my anger on her.
“No my child , there is someone who cares for you like no one does.” She again tried to convince me.
“Only one person cares for me and that’s you and you are long gone and I want to come to you now.” I said while tightening my hold on her.
“No dear as I said your time hasn’t come yet. You have a long beautiful life to live.” She said in her sweet voice.
I shake my head in no.
“Sarah my child crying over the spilled milk won’t help my dear now stop crying.” She said sternly.
Ignoring her words I still cried my heart out.
She did not say anything after that, just kept on caressing my back lovingly and I kept on crying.
When my tears stopped a little she spoke softly “Sarah”
“Hmmm” I hemmed in reply.
Will you do one more thing for me, my child?” She asked me softly.
“Hmm” Closing my eyes I hummed again.
“You have fulfilled your duty as a child while fulfilling my dreams. You made your name the way I dreamed of but now I want you to live for yourself. Will you do this for me?” She spoke lovingly.
I shake my head in no.
“Please my child?” She requests in such a way that even Devil or God none can deny.
‘But I don’t want to live so how can I promise her? I thought with my closed eyes.
“Promise me my child you will never waste this lovely life which almighty has blessed you with.” She said softly.
I scoffed hearing the name of non-exist The Almighty.
She chuckled hearing my scoff and said “I know you don’t believe in god but dear trust he is there, he is watching you he was and he is always there to protect you.” She said while breaking the hug and looking at my face and I did the same.
‘A smile broke on my face looking at her cute innocent face. How can god create such a charming yet warmest person I know?’ I thought of smiling at her.
“Now tell me will you live your life the way you wanted to? Will you live your dreams? Will you do things which will make you happy?” She asked me while holding my hands and unknowingly I nodded in agreement.
“Yey” She clapped like a child and I giggled looking at her cute tactics.
“Sarah.” I look up when hearing the voice of Nathan.
He looked hell worried and looked here and there looking at me giggling.
"Nathan, look who is here.” Excitedly I said and pointed towards granny and to my shock she wasn't there anymore.
I instantly got up from my place and called her out painfully Granny, Granny where are you ? Granny?” I called looking like a madwoman.
“Sarah.. Sarah Nathan ran towards me and held me from the shoulder.
“She was here Nathan, she was just here and talking to me. She was her.” I cry out again in helplessness.
“I know.. I know she was.” Hugging me tightly Nathan mummer.
“People who love us, never leave us Sarah.” Nathan spoke softly.
“She was here Nathan she said I should live my life.” I said while wetting his crisp shirt.
“Yes she was right. You should live your life the way you want to.” He said while creasing my back.
“But I don’t want to.” I whined
“So you want to leave your brother in the world all alone hmm?” She asked me this and broke my hug and looked at him.
He had tears in his eyes looking at that more tears pooled out in my eyes.
“No I don’t want to leave you.” I said while again hugging her tightly as if my life had depended on him.
“Then do as granny says.” He said while tightening his hold on me.
I cried my heart out while keeping my head on his chest and he kept on saying sweet words to calm my nerves down.
“Now come one lets go, we have a flight to catch.” He said while breaking the hug.
I thought for a bit and looked into his eyes “Nathan I don’t want to go back.”
