Nightmares

A girl, wearing a white nightgown walks over to the edge of the roof, takes a last glance at Ryan and smiles painfully. Her face was not clear, all he could see was her painful smile, with tears rolling down her cheeks. She says "Why?" and jumps off the building...

Ryan opens his eyes gasping...This has become a routine for him to have this dream every night...It was only past 2 am... He couldn't sleep anymore. He takes a deep sigh.." That dream again... Just what is the meaning of this" he questions himself.

He gets out of his bed and gets a glass of water...He then walks up to the window and stares into the night, filled with city lights.

Ryan runs a big modelling agency known as   Bruwayne and has set up his businesses in many big countries. He owns a big apartment in the city. He was all fine until he reached his 20's he started having nightmares about a certain girl who appears in his dream and kills herself... It's been 4 years since he first started this nightmare and it has continued till now. Because of this, he had to depend on  pills to help his sleep but it started getting worse as days passed by...He was suffering from insomnia...

(Morning)...

He gets to the kitchen and makes himself breakfast...He then sits down and reads the newspaper...While turning to the other page he notices a familiar image of a place. The news wrote "Old imperial building was discovered by researchers. It's getting crowded with tourists...It was remained undiscovered for over 200 years".He checks out the photo of the palace printed on the paper and it felt like he has seen it somewhere but wasn't so sure so he ignores it...

A few hours later he gets to his office and sees his assistant on his way to his office room

. Amy :- Good morning sir.

** Ryan** :- "A very good morning"

Amy :-"Are you okay sir? You  don't look well"

** Ryan** :-"ahh...I am fine...It's because I didn't get enough sleep last night...

Amy:-"Ahhh okay sir"

Ryan:- "What's the schedule for today?"

Amy:- " Not so much sir, you only have a  meeting with one of the companies from Yveiry modelling agency,"

Ryan:-"Okay...Great"

They both went to his office and started doing their work...

(On the other side of the city)

Sally wakes up with a headache...She wasn't able to sleep properly because she keeps on hearing voices in her sleep. Voice of her own laughter along with a man's voice. Also, she would often feel the man's presence around her that was sending chills down her body...

Sally:- "Ughhhhh my head"

She was confused as to what were these nightmares were about. She was convinced that she was being haunted by some spirit but she didn't let anyone know about it because, in this day and age, no one would believe what she was experiencing.

She gets some pills for her head..Just then she gets a call from her manager..

*Ring\~Ring*

Sally:- "Hello,"

June:- "Hello, Sally? Are you awake?"

Sally:- "Yes, just a while ago...What is it?'

June:- "I called to remind you again that we have a meeting with the CEO of Bruwayne where you also have to be present.."

Sally:- "arrgghhhh...I forgot about this...Do I have to go? I am not feeling too well"

June:- "Couldn't sleep again?"

Sally:- "Sadly no.."

June:-

"I'm so sorry to hear that but you have to be present there...Let's just get over with the meeting real fast and get you back home okay"

Sally:- "alright.."

June:-"Okay, I will send you a car to pick you up...Get ready on time"

Sally:- 'okay..See you"

She disconnects the call and takes a deep sigh..

She goes to the mirror and looks at herself, she had big visible eye bags..

"hhaaaaaa...This is not good for me I should visit a doctor," Talks to herself

Sally is an upcoming model who was rising to the top charts and was receiving a lot of contracts from other companies and Bruwayne was one of them. Yveiry wanted to form a contract with Bruwayne because it was one of the renowned companies owned by one of the youngest businessman..

And Sally was chosen to be the main model to sign the contract with Bruwayne and be a model for their products and advertisements.

Sally has never met Ryan nor did Ryan know about Sally. So this was the first time that was about to see each other.

That same evening...

Ryan arrives at the Yveiry agency,..Sally was also already there in her changing room when her manager comes in..

June:- "Are you ready?"

Sally:- "Oh yes, I am" ..She was ready with her make-up on and worse the best designer outfit..

June:-"Okay..Can you go ahead to the meeting room where the president is waiting? The Ceo of Bruwayne has arrived.."

Sally:- "Okay sure,"

Her manager smiles and leaves her room...Sally got up and walks out of the room...She walks towards the meeting hall, her heels making a tap-tap sound...Then she remembers she has left her phone in the changing room and turns back to go get it..While she was going to the room, Ryan comes in from the opposite side, walking with her assistant..

While walking sally was busy looking inside her purse that she didn't see Ryan coming along the same way she was going..Ryan passes by Sally and suddenly Sally gets a chill in her body..She feels the same sensation she felt while  she was would hear voices in her sleep.....She starts breathing heavily and sweat runs down her forehead...She gathered her courage and turns around...
