Chapter 1

"Mom.......mom....mom....come on hurry up. Let's go or else we will be late. Dad is waiting in the car" I shouted in excitement.

"Coming honey" she replied from the kitchen.

But I kept shouting from the main door as I was excited about our oversea vacation, "Mom... mom.... mom." I kept shouting.

She came running after checking everything for the last time in the kitchen as we were going on a long vacation after many years.

Dad would always be busy with his work but he would never neglect me or mom. He always gives us time, and now we are going on an oversea vacation.

Oh my god, I am so excited.*****

I could hear the car's horn from the back, it made the smile on my face even wider.

We went in the car and Mom told Dad that she had checked everything last time before leaving and then they were busy talking.

A sudden yell from my mouth made them look back in terror."What happened honey?" they both asked in unison. Dad halted the car to the side of the road and Mom started searching for any injury on my body.

"Is there any injury honey?" dad inquired in a worried voice.

Mom continued examining my body, "There is no injury" she told in a relieved voice and Dad sighed in relief.

"What happened honey? Why did you shout?" Mom asked me in her worried voice.

"Look, mom, look," I said while showing her the map of Disneyland and started pointing at the various roller coaster rides. She stared at the map. She had no clue about what I was trying to show her.

"Is something wrong with your fingers? honey, why are you moving your fingers so fast." She took my hand in hers and started examining them. Dad was looking at everything from the driver's seat with an amused face. He understood what I was trying to show mom. I smiled sheepishly at him.

"No mom, nothing is wrong with my fingers. Look there are so many rides here. We are going to go on all the rides" I responded in excitement looking at the map.

"Jane Elizabeth Austen" Mom said my full name in her angry voice. I lifted my eyes from the map and met with my mom's angry ones. She snatched the map away from my hands "Jane Elizabeth Austen, are you trying to give me, my very first heart attack" she said in her angry voice. Looking at mom's angry face, me and dad I started laughing very loudly. She looks very cute when she is angry.

Taking the map from my hands she went to the front seat. Dad and I continued to laugh. Mom's angry look told us to stop laughing. We both tried to suppress our laughter. But we failed and burst out laughing once again and this time Mom joined laughing with us. And once again I was telling them what we were going to do once we had reached there.

Dad was driving towards the airport and we were halfway to the airport. The sun was setting down and the night was going to bloom any time soon. I was so excited about my vacation with my family that I had got lost in my dream.

A sudden jerk made me snap out of my dream. Mom's worried voice started echoing in the car, finally when my eyes were fully opened. I saw two big lights coming towards us and then it hit our car, making it turn upside down. The sudden jerk of our car colliding led me to hit my head on something very hard.

Blood oozed out from my head. Making my head heavy with throbbing pain. I started losing my consciousness and mom's voice stopped ringing in my ear. Not hearing my mom's voice anymore made my already racing heart go even more wild with fear. Breathing was becoming hard for me. My body was slowly becoming heavy with the unconscious taking over me, but I needed to see them. Lifting my body with the last bit of strength left in me. I started searching for mom and dad in the front seat.

Are they OK?

I was trying hard not to lose consciousness, attempting to keep my eyes open which was becoming hard with each passing second. I took hold of the seat to balance my trembling timid body and let a slow breath. I looked at the front seat and there was blood everywhere.

"M..mom, D..dad" I screeched with a sore throat, at the same time trying to keep my eyes open but I couldn't. Blackness was taking hold of my sight making unconsciousness take over me. I started hearing the sound of a siren it was ringing all over the place.

"There is someone alive here. Hurry up and bring the stretcher fast." A male voice yelled in a panic. Those were the last words I heard before unconsciousness completely took over me, making me fall in a deep dark slumber.

But I could still hear the ringing noise which made me open my eyes and my hands drifting to my head. Searching for any sign of blood.

I was breathing hard but there was nothing. Only sweat was all over my face and head.

The ringing sound was coming from my alarm.

Lifting my hand I switched it off. Taking in my surroundings, I found myself on my bed, the realization hit me. Taking a deep breath, I began to calm myself.

"I...it was just an n..nightmare, nothing is going to happen again," I whispered while soothingly moving my hand on my wildly pumping heart.

How much ever I try to make myself forget about that day, it never happens. Fear of the haunting nightmare never went from my heart.
