Sudhir was taking a piss in his toilet with the door open. When a women in her mid thirties appeared in a black sari with red border, her hair open and a red big bindi on the forehead staring at him.
He turns around and there is no one. He thinks about it being weird and all and goes back to sleep.
The next night he gets woken up in middle of his sleep, seeing the women again standing in front of him, next to him sitting on top of him. This continues for a few nights.
He gets up in the middle of the night, looks around and there is nothing. It shook him so much that he dreaded to fall asleep.
His performance at work slumped, sleeping at work, low productivity to such an extent that he was told to take a few days off to get things in order.
Sudhir being an atheist, thought maybe taking a break was not a bad idea. Lying on his bed, he wondered about the women in his dreams, Was she a figment of imagination or did she really existed? He could not recall seeing her ever. Answers eluded him.
He switched off the lights of his room, hoping to catch up on his lost sleep. Though on the back of his mind the thoughts of the women in sari wont go away.
The next day people were coming in and out of his flat, as Sudhir's body was carried out into the ambulance. Police presence was there making inquires.
Murmurs were heard that he probably passed away in his sleep. The landlord informing the police that over five years ago a women had died in a similar manner.
A colleague overheard the conversation to whom Sudhir had confided into about seeing the women. He wondered if only Sudhir had paid attention to his dreams from coming true.
