Adventure story 221. The scream

                                                                The scream
Nisha was sleeping peacefully when she heard that scream. She was so sure that every thing was great in that new house. She never thought that change of her house would suit her so much. In this house every thing was just great. Her brother got one room and she got different room. Since that house was big. They got separate room. She hated it when they shifted since her school was changed. She imagined worst nightmare. She felt that all students of new school would not cooperate with her. But instead of that she liked this school. She didn't made so many friends but in this school students were not that scholar so she considered a topper. Everyone was giving her special respect. It was so happy due to it. Whenever any problem came during some chapter she was approached. She had feeling as if she was captain of that ship. In last school she was ordinary student. Here she was scholar. She knew that she was not great but still she enjoyed being treated in such nice way. She knew that many girls were hating her due to that record. She was not that much effected by it. She felt hurt sometimes that she had lacked for friends. She needed friends but not that much. She began to move ahead at every step of life. She could see teachers liked her. That was most important for her. She even had one good girl who sat with her. She had one friend that was okay with her. She was happy with all those arrangements. But then on that day when she was sleeping, she heard that scream which woke her up from dreams. She sensed that something was wrong. She was shivering so much. She sensed one thing that she was sleeping alone in that darkness of room. That scream was stopped. But still she felt one thing. She sensed it's fear. That whole room was totally dark. She just ran to lamp and lighted it. She began to look around the room. She sensed that light started to reduce some of her fears. She looked around in room. She just wanted to feel safe in that darkness. But still she just kept remembering those screams. Those screams were so loud in her ears. She didn't want to search for cause of that voice. She just wanted to understand what was meaning of that voice. It was hurting her soul at every moment. She was feeling so much anger towards that scream. She wanted to feel happy and peaceful in heart. But that scream was scaring her so much. She didn't want to go in her parents room. It would make her look fool before her father. In fact she was sure that he would even taunt her. It was getting so hard for her. She just had to sleep, she knew that this scream had stopped. She sensed one thing. She needed to sleep on her bed. She needed to relax but it was not happening on any point. She just kept feeling one thing. That she wanted to sleep on bed. But she just couldn't even after stopping of that scream. She just slept on bed and kept chanting name of god to relax herself. She knew that she needed to relax now. After all what could she tell all that she heard one scream. But she sensed one thing that she was going to suffer on that night.
    Nisha opened her eyes when sunlight fall on her. She was so confused due to strange night. Her head was feeling disoriented. She wanted to think straight but she hardly managed to do that. She was getting just confused on every point. She just didn't understand what happened but she was sure that she heard one scream. But she knew that she must not become obsessed with it. She had to understand that it was over. She looked in mirror. She looked carefully under her eyes. She didn't want swelling or dark circle. If she had some thing like that, she was sure that her Mom would bombard her with questions. She looked at herself with care. There was small dark marks. She was so scared due to them. She just didn't want any one to see it. But then she suddenly sensed that some one was opening her door. Before she could do any thing her younger brother came inside. Satish "Didi what are you doing? You are planning to do your make up even before breakfast." "What is problem with you? Why don't you learn to mind your own business?" " Excuse me. You are my sister and I have came here to take help from you regarding my homework. So tell me. Are you going to help me?" "No..I am not." "Mom..Mom.. Didi is not." "Stop stop..okay okay I will help." Satish smiled. " Now that is better. So tell me what is wrong?" She took book from him." With what?" "Your face?" "I don't want to discuss it. Do you really want help? ""Okay..Okay relax. Can you solve it for me?" Then he showed her one mathematics problem. It was really hard. She started trying to solve it. But today she sensed some thing was wrong with her brain. She just couldn't able to remember basic mathematics. She felt that she just couldn't remember one way that she was going to solve her problem. She knew that if she said that. It would prove disgraceful to her new reputation. " I just feel that my head is paining. Give me few minutes to relax." Satish " Your face is also looking little pale." Then he ran to Mom. She didn't want her Mom to come in room. She knew that it would just make matter worst. She looked at her reflection in mirror again .She started consoling herself that she was fine. But she still sensed that something was totally wrong with her today. She knew that she had control her mind. But that scream was just kept coming back in her mind. She just kept thinking who was that person who screamed in night. She just wanted to punish that person who had managed to upset her night in such a way. She just hated it. But she knew that she couldn't do that. After all it was just one scream nothing big. She just kept looking around in her room. It was fine. She just needed some medicine for her head then she would be fine. Then suddenly her Mom came running inside. She checked her temperature by touching her forehead. She screamed " Stop it Mom. I am fine. Just needed some pain killer." "No.. You are not going to have them. If you feel sick, let's go to Doctor." "No.." She didn't want to visit Doctors again. She just hated it. She always hated doctors and hospitals. She didn't even like to visit maternity home to see small babies. She just visit them in their homes. "No..NO.. MOM ..I am just fine. Give me just few minutes. I want to sleep." "Then sleep." Then Mom took Satish with her. Mom ordered Satish to go to school immediately and told her that she could sleep and take rest today. Nisha smiled happily and once again slept. Her Mom was always so considerate about her health. She went to sleep peacefully.
   Nisha went to sleep. But whole time her Mom was looking at her. Nisha's Mom sensed that something was wrong. Nisha was looking so different today. She was not like normal self. She was looking so much different. Her Mom had sensed that she had not slept last night. But why did she stayed awake like that. Her Mom was so tense about her since her sickness. She had to sleep properly. She must recover fully but her sleep seemed as if not proper. Her Mom went in kitchen. She started cooking. In few hours she came to room to check on Nisha. She was sleeping properly. Her Mom carefully touched Nisha's forehead. She didn't got fever. Her Mom was so confused. She had one question. Why did Nisha was not sleeping? Her Mom decided that it might be due to heavy medicine which she had to take after operation. Doctor had warned her that Nisha might get angry but she had to be careful if she had any other trouble. Her Mom sensed one thing. She was not relaxed. Then after some hours Nisha woke up. By then she was feeling just perfect. She went out. She ate her lunch. She looked at clock. It was too late for her school. She felt so sad. She didn't want to miss her school after all due to her sickness. She missed it many times. She even had to leave behind her old school. But now in this new school she wanted to look perfect. She decided that she must find some way to adjust it. She went out side. Nisha "Mom why am I getting sick again? I mean until yesterday every thing was just fine. But then suddenly today that scream destroyed all." Her Mom looked alert. Mom " What did you said? A what?!! A scream?" "No..No.. I said a dream. I mean I have just one dream to look perfect in school and in every thing. It is making me tense." Nisha was so scared. She almost said it. She didn't want to tell it to any one. She wanted to forget all about it. She just smiled and started eating her lunch which her Mom served. It was tasty. She was so glad. She managed to hide that scream from Mom. She decided that she could enjoy that day. She was sure that she would not hear that scream on that night. She started eating her lunch. But soon she started to have tense feel. She might dream that scream again. Suddenly her stomach developed strange sensation. She sensed one thing. That she was not that much sure that she did dream on that day. Nisha " Mom I had enough." Mom was shocked." What? You have not even finish one roti. This is not right. You have to eat properly." "But Mom I am not hungry." "You have to eat." Nisha tried to eat. But she just couldn't. She began to feel that she was going to vomit. "Mom I just can't." Her Mom looked confused. Finally she decided to quit. Her Mom " Fine. You can go to sleep now." "No..Mom I like to study." Her Mom looked more confused. Her Mom "Fine but don't exhaust yourself too much." Nisha nodded. Then she went inside her room. She began to study in her room. She start to read from books. She was trying to understand all those things which were written inside those books. She was doing it with full concentration on each point. She was so happy while studying that books. It seemed as if her whole world was just inside them. She was studying so hard. Those chapters were creating dreams for her world. She began to enjoy them. Soon she just managed to forget about that scream. She was fully happy in her world. She decided that next time when that scream would come. She would just close her ears. She knew that she could plug headphones and listen to music. Then she would not hear it. That plan had managed to make her so happy that she just decided to listen to music at night. She was so normal by night that she had nice dinner. Her Mom was so happy to see that. So she went happily to sleep. She put ear phones in her ear and started to listen to music which made her so happy. That she didn't even sense when did she sleep while listening to that music.
    Nisha suddenly woke up by scream. She was so sure that she didn't understand those ear phones would not stop scream. She was so shocked. She was hearing it. She was once again shivering. But this time she was far more upset. She suddenly began to doubt from her mind. That it was having worst effect on mind. She just felt one thought from mind. That it was possible that she was hearing those screams when she had to ear phones on. She was just too scared now. She knew that something must be wrong with her brain. She was so scared. She knew that after her operation. She was warned. She knew that she must face that fact now. She started crying loudly. She knew that no one could hear her. But soon she sensed that just crying would not help. She needed her Mom. But she knew that it was not easy to go in her parent's room like that. She couldn't disturb her younger brother so her only option was to sit in room and kept crying. She knew that on next day she had to visit Doctor. Then her treatment would start again. She was so scared but she didn't want to disturb any one. She still remembered how tired every one due to her. It was not just sickness. They all just didn't tolerate her with her screams. She used to scream with pains. They all used to complain expect her Mom. She used to come to help her. But her Dad just used to scream every time. Dad " Will you stop it? " Her brother also used to complaint so they used to keep her a room which was sound proof. She wanted to stay in soundproof room. She didn't want to trouble any one. It all was just worst in every point. She just used to be in room when those pain used to rise. She just didn't want to remember all it. It was so horrible. She was so scared. She started remembering every incidence of sickness. She didn't want to hear that scream again but she didn't even want to lock herself in that room again. It was so hard on every point since she started to understand her mind. She was creating those screams. She felt as if she was remembering those screams which was part of past. She started remembering every part of past. That past was so hard on her mind. She knew that she was remembering those screams. She was imagining all those screams which would show those effect on every point. She was hearing that scream only .She was so sure that she was becoming mad. It all was happening just due to her those painful memories. She sensed one thing that she was not going to leave behind those memories. It all happened due to those effect which was showing worst impact on mind. She started to move ahead at every point over those pain. She started thinking carefully about her head. It was paining from inside. She was sensing those pains which were having effect on her mind. She started searching in her head. Inside that head she started looking that effect which was created due to pain. She began to search for pain. She was so sure that those pains would return. But they didn't seem to return. She sensed just one thing. She couldn't take it any more. She needed her Mom. She decided to run to her. But then she felt scared again. After all she was not feeling pain in her head. She sensed sorrows in head. She was so scared. She ran towards her parent's room. She started banging door of that room.
   Nisha's Mom suddenly woke up by that noise. She was so confused and scared. Nisha's Dad was already angry by this disturbance. Dad "I just don't understand what is wrong with that girl? I mean even after so much treatment still she is having some trouble. It seemed as if our all efforts are wasted. She is once again banging on our door." "Shut up. You are her Dad behave like one. How can you talk like that about your own daughter?" "I know it is wrong. But I just can't take it. I need some sleep if I want to go in office and money is needed on every step. Try to relax her so that I can get some money for her treatment." Nisha's Mom looked at her Dad with anger and went out of room. Dad " Shut down the door." " Sure. Take you nice sleep with nightmares." Then she went out and closed the door. Nisha hugged her. Nisha " Mom I am hearing screams." "What?" "Yes Mom. I think due to that operation of tumor. I am getting mad. Don't you feel there might be another tumor in my brain? Do you feel that I am damaged in brain? I might start screaming and walking around like mad woman. Mom promise me. You will never let walk around in disgusting way. You will take care of me and when you think you are going to die just shoot me. No.. No..you don't have gun poison me. But never let any one else touch me Mom. Promise me..Promise me." Nisha's Mom was so shocked with this development that she just couldn't able to say anything at first. But Nisha's Mom was sure that Nisha was over reacting. But still she was scared. Nisha's Mom " Nothing is wrong with you. It might be happening due to medicine. We will go to Doctor tomorrow." "But Mom.." "Come on. I will sleep with you. Just come with me." Nisha's Mom took her in room. Then slowly she managed to relax Nisha. But one thing was sure Nisha was so scared. Nisha's Mom decided that she must take her to Doctor tomorrow. Next morning she told her Dad that she was taking her to Doctor who was least interested in all those things. Dad "Do as you think right. I just want her to be normal again." It seemed as if her Dad was just too scared of Doctors. He just didn't want to be part of any medical treatment. Then next day Nisha's Mom took her to Doctor. He started talking with Nisha. Then he advised some tests. But then he said " Actually I don't feel some thing is physically wrong with her. I feel it is psychological. Post traumatic symptoms. It happen in many cases after serious operation. Patient began to start get anxious on every small matter. I suggest you that if you sleep in her room for one night. You might hear that scream." Nisha "But I had ear phones in my ears and still I heard it." "When you are sleeping, they might had loosed from your ears. That is quiet common." Nisha was confused now. That night her Mom and Dad both slept in her room. Then on same time they all woke up by some scream. Her Dad was so angry. Dad "My god who is that idiot. I feel it must be some horn or mobile ringtone. Her Dad went to window and screamed loudly to shut it down. Nisha went in her Mom's arms and started crying. Dad "How can some one act like that? Nisha just relax. It is nothing. It is not your fault." Nisha's Mom " But I feel I will take her to psychiatrist. She is getting too scared." Her Dad looked confused at first but then he nodded. So after that incidence Nisha changed her room. Her brother slept in her room who was happy to get big room and he slept in such way that nothing could woke him up except earth quake. It would also only if roof fall on him. But they started her treatment which helped her a lot. Now she also had lot of friends at school. She was loved by teacher as well as students. She was feeling better and better each day. She just felt as if she was totally normal now. After all just physical health is not enough we need mental peace also to live happy life.
