Sara ka dimaag poore din us message ke baare me sochta raha.
"Agar tum 11:11 se pehle library nahi pahunchi… to kisi ki life danger me pad sakti hai."
Ye line baar-baar uske mind me repeat ho rahi thi.
School khatam hone ke baad Sara ghar aa gayi, lekin uska focus kisi cheez par nahi tha.
Dinner table par bhi wo chup thi.
Uski mom ne poocha,
"Sab theek hai na?"
Sara ne bas smile karke kaha,
"Haan, sab theek hai."
Lekin sach me sab theek nahi tha.
Uske mind me ek hi question tha —kya usse library jaana chahiye?
Agar message fake hua to?
Aur agar message sach hua to?
Raat dheere-dheere ho rahi thi.
Sara apne room me baithi clock ko dekh rahi thi.
10:45 PM
Uska heart thoda fast beat kar raha tha.
Phone uske bed par pada hua tha.
Achanak phone vibrate hua.
New Message.
Sara ne jaldi se phone uthaya.
Message me likha tha:
"Time kam hai. 11:11 yaad hai na?"
Sara ka heart aur fast beat karne laga.
Usne reply kiya:
"Tum kaun ho? Aur library me kya hone wala hai?"
Kuch seconds baad reply aaya.
"Agar tum nahi aayi… to kisi ko bahut badi problem ho sakti hai."
Sara ab aur confuse ho gayi.
Usne Maya ko call karne ka socha.
Lekin phir usne phone side me rakh diya.
"Ye meri problem hai… mujhe hi solve karni hogi," Sara ne socha.
Usne jacket pehni aur quietly ghar se bahar nikal gayi.
Raat ka time tha aur road almost empty thi.
Street lights halki-halki roshni de rahi thi.
Sara ka school uske ghar se zyada door nahi tha.
Lekin raat me waha jaana uske liye pehli baar tha.
Jab wo school gate ke paas pahunchi to waha bilkul silence tha.
Gate half open tha.
Sara thodi nervous ho gayi.
"Ye sab bahut strange hai…" usne dheere se kaha.
Wo slowly school ke andar chali gayi.
Corridor bilkul dark aur quiet tha.
Uske footsteps ki awaaz echo kar rahi thi.
Sara ka heart zor-zor se dhadak raha tha.
Usne phone nikala aur time check kiya.
11:09 PM
Bas do minute baaki the.
Sara jaldi-jaldi library ki taraf badhne lagi.
Library ka door thoda sa open tha.
Sara ne door ko slowly push kiya.
Creeeeak…
Door khul gaya.
Library ke andar light on thi.
Sara ne idhar-udhar dekha.
Koi bhi nahi tha.
"Hello?" Sara ne dheere se kaha.
Koi answer nahi.
Sara ne phone nikala aur time check kiya.
11:11 PM
Usi moment phone vibrate hua.
New Message.
Sara ka heart almost ruk gaya.
Usne message open kiya.
Message me likha tha:
"Good. Tum aa gayi."
Sara ne jaldi se type kiya:
"Tum kahan ho?"
Reply turant aaya.
"Turn around."
Sara ka dil zor se dhadakne laga.
Usne slowly peeche mudkar dekha…
Aur us moment uski aankhen shock se wide ho gayi.
Library ke corner me koi khada tha.
Dark shadow me.
Sara ko samajh nahi aa raha tha ki wo kaun hai.
Lekin ek baat clear thi…
Ye sab koi simple prank nahi tha।
Allah chapter jald hi aayega.
Thank you 😊
