A Strange Reader

Chapter - 9

The Next Morning :

I woke up and got ready to get my phone repaired.
I went to the service centre and got a new screen.
The very next moment, I called Estelle to get my doubts cleared. But there wasn't any response from her.

As I reached home, Tim told me,
"Hey Bella, you know, our neighbour's daughter paid a visit to our home, to check on mom's health."

"Is it the same neighbour who saved you?" I asked with curiosity.

"Yeah! I forgot to ask her name. But her dad's name is Sebastian Parker."

I tried to find out Estelle's last name.
But it seemed just impossile, as she didn't reveal it anywhere on the social media.

I called her repeatedly and was waiting for her callback or text, but she didn't turn up.

"I made a mistake, by not asking where she lives. Anyways I'll have to find it out", I told myself and went to sleep.

I saw a girl standing in our verandah and she was so very beautiful.
I went closer to find out who it was and she disappeared.

She again came into our garden, gesturing me to come to her.
But when I went, she wasn't there anymore.

Finally she spoke, "Do you wanna know who I am?"

"Yeah!" I answered.

"Then come to the Hillside."

I suddenly woke up and saw the time. It was 3am.
I then realized that it was a dream.
"Thank god!", I exclaimed and went back to sleep.

"But wait, what if it's real?
Lemme check tomorrow, where that place is", I thought.

"No Bella. No! Don't go!" in dad's voice.

"But why dad?" I asked.

"Trust me, it isn't safe for you", dad told and held my hand, to stop me.

"Just leave me dad. I'll be fine. You dont have to worry for me!" I told and left in anger.

My head started aching severely and woke up.
"Oh god! Again a dream? May be it was dad's way of conveying to me.
I miss you a lot dad. And I'll always obey you. Dont wory, I'm not going to go to that place", I thought.
