《Chapter#6: Memories That Can Not Be Forgotten 》

  "KAI!!! O KAI!!!!"

  "Stop shouting Acia I can hear you"

  Acia smiled and waited for me infront of my house.

  I got ready and got out from the house.

  "OK let's go"

  "Where you wanna go KAI?"

  "As always let's play in the park"

  "Nah not so fun"

  "What? I am not going anywhere with you. Last time you threw me to a pond and said to swim. You are crazy"

  "Hehe my bad my bad. But this time we are gonna find a new park , natural one bigger than this one."

  "Nah I am not going "

  Acia bite her tongue and started tickling me.

  "Don't bother me"

  "You are a knuckle head"

  "What did you say?"

  Acia showed her tongue to provoke me and started running .

  "You are not going to stay one after this "

  I chased her.

  We ran for some time and got near a tree and collapsed.

  {Huff Huff}

  {Huff Huff}

  "Stop running you dumbass"

  I threw a little punch on Acia's head.

  "Ahhh you are not so gentlemanly. Which man punches a women"

  "I don't discriminate and first of all you are just a 8 year old child"

  "You are too . You fool"

  We started laughing.

  "You know Kai... I wanna explore and go to new places, I am gonna visit mountains, forests, beaches and so many places"

  "Nah you are gonna get tired of trips. I know you. You are a lazy lazy person"

  "I am not lazy and what's with that double lazy you idiot"

  "You are the idiot here"

  We laughed so happily.

  We spent our childhood with joy, we played , we went to school, we had fun with our friends and families..........But

  (Is it a dream? Things were not that so sweet. It's a dream may be)

  "Don't worry. You can stay happy here none will bother you"

  There is a distant voice coming from nearby. It was unknown to me. It was melodic but sorrowful at the same time.

  (Yes, I should stay here. I should have fun. I should spend time with family,friends and Acia...........Acia?

  NO! I can't stay here. If I stay here I will be denying the real Acia)

  "Do you really wanna remember the tragidy"

  (I will never forget it. Neve Never Never Never Never .......)

  A scenario started playing infront of me.

  {LA LA LALA LA LALA LALA LA}

  Acia was humming while picking flower from the garden near park.

  (NOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I DONT WANNA SEE IT. PLEASEEEEEE NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

  A middle aged man was approaching Acia from behind.

  Acia looked back.

  "Uncle do you want some flowers?" Acia asked with a smile.

  (Please don't please. Acia run Please. {Sob} {Sob} please!!!!)

  The man grabbed Acia and undressed her. Acia was screaming for help. She tried to free herself but she couldn't compare with the strength of that animal.

  Alas!!! None was there to help. The man started violating Acia's Body. He was like an animal akin to boar as filthy and dirty. Acia was bleeding All over. She was in pain.

  A little boy came running looking for Acia. When he seen the sight. He saw a gruesome sight. He wished that he never experienced this. Fortunately Stan and Bota was with him.

  Bota run back screaming to the neighbourhood. People came running. Stan and Kai already freed Acia. The man tried to run away but the mass already captured him and handed over to the police.

  Acia's condition was so bad. The little me couldn't understand why Acia had to suffer back than. I used to visit Acia everyday she was unconscious.

  One day I was sitting by the Hospital bed of Acia. She opended her eyes.

  "Acia! Let me bring the doctors"

  "Wait, don't go. I want to tell you something"

  "It's not the time for that. You need to get treatment"

  "Kai you know you are a very good boy. I wanted to be your wife when we grow older"

  "We can still marry when you get well"

  "Oh Kai, how kind you are. You know right I wanted to visit various places?"

  "Yes, I know very well". I don't know why but I was sobbing.

  "Why you crying fool.......... Kai visit places for me"

  "Do it yourself Acia. You will get better. We will travel together. I promise."

  "OK it's a promise than. Please don't forget me Kai"

  I couldn't hold anymore. I cried out loudly.

  "I will never forget you. Never"

  {Chhhhhhhhhh}

  The machine which was giving the heartbeat signal got nil. The line become flat. Acia was smiling but her body wasn't moving anymore. Her eyes were open. Looking at me as if I was her new home.

  "Wake up Kai. Wake up"

  I slowly opened my eyes. In this Void where there is no light. There was a dazzling figure standing infront of me. She was as beautiful as emeralds.

  "Acia"

  "Why are you sobbing till now fool? I am always with you. Know your existence. I am within it. Your existence is mixed with mine and that's home for me. I am always with you travelling and staying wherever you are. One day when you will truly know you're existence we can be with eachother again."

  Finishing her sentence she vanished with a smile on her face as always.

  (...)

  {DONG..DONG..}

  After a while. Sound of bell ringing could be heard. At that moment I was in a big white place. I was walking. Suddenly a person popped out from nowhere. The person was of average height, had a diamond shape face, his hair and eyes were wavy and black, his physic was just moderate. The person was looking at me. I felt like I was in front of a mirror. The person in front of me was me.

  (Huh who is it. It looks exactly like me)

  "Because I am you". His voice was also identical to me.

  (What? What do you mean bu that)

  "This is the core of your existence and I am your subconscious self."

  (So what I have to do now?)

  "You did well in Retsseg. You know what's the perspose of Restsseg?. A person is made out of his memories. If you forget everything you experienced the thing left won't be a person. It will be just an empty vessel. Retsseg let the person go through his memories or phobias to let the person know himself. So that he can know his existence."

  (So will I be able to access my core)

  "Hmmm...partially. You will be able to resonate with me a little. You roots will grow a little out of your core now"

  (So what it will do)

  My subconscious self smiled at me.

  "Figure out your self"

  Next moment I got sucked in a vortex of knowledge?

  It was full of written text and ruines. I was looking at them. It's felt like my brain gonna burst out because of the overload of information. The torment stopped after a while.

  I could feel my eyes again. I slowly opened my eyes and seen the room where the old man was sitting patiently.

  Seeing me open my eyes. A faint smile surfaced on the old man's face.

  "You did it well boy"
