Stress Testing..

Red, blue, orange, green. She saw all sorts of colors floating in front of her eyes and voices filled with laughter hitting her ear drums. She looked into her watch, “Oh! Its just 1:30 P.M. Will I be able to manage this?”

She distracted herself from her weird thoughts and started concentrating on the work. She looked into the monitor and what she could just see was series of alphabet jumbled together. Suddenly, something struck her and she searched for her cell in the bag. Slowly, one by one, after reading those messages and call logs for one last time, she deleted them all. She took a deep breath, “Its going to be ok. Its going to be ok. Should I inform someone?” She shunned the thought and put the cell in her bag.

She got up from her seat and looked at the people standing near her desk, laughing and chatting. She smiled at them, “Excuse me!” She made her way towards the door. Slowly, the voices around her grew dim in her ears and drowsiness filled her eyes. She saw the man with a shocked look running towards her. She realized the time has come, “GOD! Please save me and forgive me for all the things I have done. I know only YOU would understand me. I want to start a new life.”

She opened her eyes slowly and looked around. She got a strong stench and realized she was in the hospital. She saw the nurse with her back facing towards her. The nurse said,” Doctor, she has been unconscious  since past four hours. How are we going to disclose that her husband is no more?”

She closed her eyes and heard the doctor saying, “We will manage it. Her friend is here. Its lucky that she is alive. The police found sleeping pills mixed in their food. Someone tried to kill this lovely couple”

A guilt feeling along with happiness filled her heart, “Thank GOD! Please forgive me. My first part of the plan has succeeded. “
