It came back with a nasty smile on its face. It had looked her in the eyes and had laughed at her audacity of trying to stop it from visiting her.
She did not foresee, but she could sense its arrival! This is not the first time it has come gunning for her! It has arrived, without fanfare and without bothering about her antagonistic reaction to it! She knows that it appears just like that, out of the blue, as though it has got ownership rights on her! Her skin had crawled! Her whole body had shivered in anticipation of its demonic mission!
One moment her life was full of colors, rhythm and happiness and the next moment, it had peeped its head in, mocking at her plans and her audacity of planning things without bothering to take its existence into consideration! She is terrified of it! She has been terrified of it for a long time now! At the very first moment of its arrival, it takes charge of her body and mind ruthlessly, dominating her into submission! Her whole world stuns into a tormented silence till the time she fights the battle and wins the battle, pushes it out of her doors and postpone its arrival a bit more, a few months more, one day at a time!
She does not know how long she can play this cat and mouse game with it! How long can she wrestle herself out of its clutches? But then, she tries! She tries like mad! She tries like nobody has ever tried before! She tries as though it is the end of her world! But then, can anyone win it, argue with it and convince it not to come back ever again?
How can you argue with a mindless being? How can you spare yourselves from the violence of being banged day in and day out? Does it make any sense? It makes no sense at all!
At least she cannot be held responsible for such venom it spits out when it chooses to present its mighty self before her! She is tired of it all! May be, she should commit suicide and put a full stop to its unauthorized abuse of her body and mind once and for all!
Will it stop visiting her then, at least after her death? Will it still pursue her to the corners of the earth, heaven and more! How could she stop it? She must have mulled on this very problem a million times in the past and it does not stop her from pursuing on this topic a million times more!
