Darkroom Diaries : Whispers In the Fog ~Darkroom Diaries~ 1

THE SKETCH THAT BREATHED

She lived alone a rented flat near her college . Her mornings were fild with brushes and black coffee, Days with lectures, sketches and stolen glances at shadows, Evenings......were for painting what she couldn't say aloud. But something changed last week- Her nightmares returned. And with it, someone else came back too.

Raina Mitra - 20 years old. Art student, dreamer, quite, observant, emotionally intense. loves painting strange visions. The kind of girl who spoke more through colors then trough words. She lived in silence-until silence spoke back.

-----

{ 10:49 PM }⌚

Raina was sitting on a chair, painting, like every day.

Unknwn person

The girl you painted in charcoal today...she had the same fear in her eyes. just like you.

A notification suddenly appeared on Raina's phone, a unown person.📱

Raina Mitra | FL

Who is this ? How do you know about the sketch? (with scared)

Unknwn person

Her hair was wet. like she just climbed out of a river, you used to draw her every monsoon.

Raina Mitra | FL

...No one was supposed to see that. How do you even see.

Unknwn person

You locked it in your sketchbook. But you forgot... she was never looked in

Raina Mitra | FL

(typing... then stoping) (typing again) Are you following me ?

Unknwn person

No I've always been ahed of you.

Raina's fingers frozen above the keyboard. her heart skipped in confusion, not fear. That painting was from a memory. A face she only saw in dreams.....or hallucinations ?

- Raina's pov - “He mentioned the river girl again. I stopped painting her 5 years ago-after father's accident. After that scream in the basement I never dared investigate. So how does a stranger know about her ?”

Next Morning

{ 06:30 AM } Alarm buzz ⏰

She wakes up in the morning, drinks coffee, and feels refreshed.

Raina steps out on oversized shirt and rolled-up jeans. Her eyes tired and smile-missing

That unown person's message came to her phone again.📱

Unknwn person

You were grey when you are sad . you wore red that night. Blood Red

Raina Mitra | FL

(Raina gasps) (Her phone almost drops on the bus)

{ Campas - Rooftop }

Disha | Raina's best friend

You have been weird all day... Raina, Did you even sleep ?

Raina Mitra | FL

What if someone knows your memories? The once you never told anyone?

Disha | Raina's best friend

I think you call the police

Raina Mitra | FL

(Softly) What if... I don't want them to stop?

{ Later That Evening - Raina Returns Home }

She locks the door,Draws the curtains. Switches on the yellow fairy lights around her easel. She sits and painting again.

but this time.... She pains a figure behind her own reflection. Tall, Shadowy, Eyes that smile... but not kindly.

Unknwn person

📱 I see her again. Standing behind you. But tonight...she turned her head.

Raina Mitra | FL

WHO ARE YOU ?

Unknwn person

You'll know soon. I have been waiting to meet you in person. And when I do... You'll remember everything.

A soft knock on the door and she freezes, looks at the clock : {12:00 AM }
