Ella, trembling with fear, cried out, "Where am I? I can't see anything; it's pitch black. Is someone there?"
All at once, the sound of footsteps drawing near echoed in the darkness.
"Who's there? Identify yourself!" Ella demanded, her voice quivering with anxiety.
"I'm here for you, Ella. Come with me, my love," he declared.
Ella asked, "What is going on? Tell me where I am?"
"Come with me, I shall now take you to our home. You are mine, Ella," he said.
Ella frantically searched for an escape from the dark confines. "Stay away from me... help, help! You, with those red eyes, you're not human! Don't lay a hand on me! Ahhhhhh... Ahhhhhh..." she screamed.
Suddenly, a soothing voice jolted Ella awake from the recurring nightmare that plagued her sleep. It was her mother waking her up. She murmured, "It's that creepy and weird dream again." Somewhat relieved, she realized it was all in her dream.
Ella's mom gently spoke, "Ella, dear, it's time to wake up. Otherwise, you'll be late for college."
Concerned, her mother inquired, "Are you alright, dear? You look pale."
"I'm fine, mother. It's just that I had a strange dream," Ella replied.
"Was it the same dream as before?" her mother asked.
Ella nodded, prompting her mother to advise her to cut back on watching horror shows, which were clearly affecting her.
Ella's mother urged her to get dressed quickly and join them downstairs for breakfast.
Ella felt anxious about facing her teacher's reprimand for being late again. Quickly dressing herself, she hurried downstairs for breakfast.
Her father, Mr. Brown, reminded her to take it easy, as was his usual custom. Before she left, she informed her mother, "I'll be spending time with my friends after school today, since our summer break starts tomorrow."
Ella's mother cautioned her to watch out for vehicles, to which she replied that she was no longer a child.
Ella, a college student majoring in mathematics, was exceptionally bright with commendable grades. Despite her wonderful family, the only troubling aspect of her life was the sleepless nights haunted by nightmares that began shortly after her eighteenth birthday.
She never would have imagined that her life would take a drastic turn after she made the decision to bring home a mysterious, beautiful cat.
On the way to college, she encountered a street dog barking menacingly at a cat. Ella intervened, ensuring the cat's safety.
"Hey kitty, you are safe now. Wow, you look so cute," she exclaimed as the cat ran away meowing.
In class, her exhaustion from the restless night was evident, prompting concern from her friend Claire. Despite her fatigue, Ella found solace in the distraction of a movie outing with her friends after school.
As night fell, Ella encountered the same cat she had saved earlier, sparking a peculiar exchange that left her unsettled. Seeing the poor cat alone, she took it with her.
The cat meowed repeatedly, expressing its emotions.
"How dare you…foolish woman call me a cat? Just wait until I am back to my original form. Leave me here," it demanded. (meow.. meow...... meow...)
Returning home, she sought permission to keep the cat, much to her father's surprise. Ella pleaded with her dad, "Please, dad, can I keep it? Please…"
Unable to resist her pleading eyes, Dad relented, saying, "Okay, you can keep it, but you have to take very good care of it."
After a normal conversation about college and how she enjoyed time with her friends, Ella took her cat to her room for a shower.
The cat meowed, protesting against the idea of taking a bath. "Have you lost your mind? No, no, no! I will never take a bath with you," it exclaimed.
"Wow, your fur is so soft! Oh my god, come here, you are unique. A red-eyed cat! This is my first time seeing a cat with such unique features," she excitedly exclaimed.
