The Dark Room

Sia opened her eyes in a room where there was only darkness not a single ray of light and all the windows & doors were closed.

Her whole body was trembling with fever and seeing such darkness started to weigh her back down.

"Where am I? What is this place? How did I come here and why is my whole body feeling such a pain as if someone had hit me with a stick?"

When she herself was thinking all these questions, then suddenly she heard the sound of the door opening and from there she saw a figure working towards her because of Darkness the person could not be recognized.

She mustered up the courage and asked "who are you? What am I doing here?"

That person replied in a crafty tone "you like this room, didn't you Oh! My sweet little darling how can I forget that after that incident you can't tolerate darkness"

This voice seemed familiar to her and within a short time she realized that it was none other than her stepmother.

"Why are you doing this to me? What have I done to you?" she said while crying

Her step mother replied in a hypocritical manner "You must be aware of how much I love you sweetheart and whatever I do it's for you I told you many times that this marriage proposal is a treasure for you don't lose it but still you didn't understand and yesterday in front of everyone you denied their proposal. Do you have any idea how reputable they are in society? They are the richest among all I wish they would have selected one of my daughters"

She started laughing in a painful voice and said "Treasure for me or you greedy lady I am not aware of if you ever loved me but I am very much aware that you are very hungry for money. I am sure this marriage proposal is also some sort of profitable business of yours am I wrong my so-called mother?"

She came walking towards her and turning her face to her said to her "Of course you are right if you don't get married your father who loves you so much will never pay attention to my daughters and I don't want that. This is your last chance either say yes or be here in this dark room for your whole life and yeah how can I forget my sweetheart have a workshop next week right for which you were preparing for so long how will you attend that from this room so, be a good girl and say yes tomorrow you have whole night to decide in this complete dark room either yes or no"

As soon as she left Sia tried her best to escape, but she couldn't, She didn't even know where she was. She had absolutely no clue what to do. She started crying remembering her mother and her words. Her mother always brings peace and comfort to her mind. She fell asleep thinking about her mother.
