Deja Vu - Part 2

The second part of the story.....Read the first part here

I woke up to the sound of my cell phone alarm ringing incessantly pleading to be put on snooze! I sat up and checked myself. I could see bright sunlight streaming in through the windows. Outside I could hear the normal bustle as people went about their daily chores. I thanked God that it had only been a nightmare. But it had seemed so real, so vivid. I could still visualize the creature standing in front of me and its sharp claws inching towards me. I shook my head to try and clear my mind. Weeks passed after that incident and my established routine continued.

Then some time later, a long awaited movie released. Due to some extra responsibilities at my workplace I couldn't see it. But I couldn't resist the urge to catch the movie. I called up my friends for some company, but most of them had either already watched it or were busy.Desperate as I was, I decided that I would watch it alone. It was a late night show.

The movie was wonderful. I did not regret my decision of going alone for it. I started my bike and sped towards my home. I was humming a song from the movie. It seemed odd to me that I seemed very comfortable with the lyrics even though I had heard it for the first time. And then a couple of blocks away I saw that the streets were engulfed in darkness, the streetlights obviously not working.

And then realization dawned on me. It was happening for real. Or was this too a dream, a nightmare. Or was it Deja Vu...............................!!!!
