Midnight


His mother woke him at midnight.  His father had met an accident and She had to go to hospital.

Will you be alright by yourself.

Yes. I am fourteen. I am not scared of anything.

Good. And she darted out of the house. After some time he heard car engine started and car driving away.

He tried to go back to sleep when he heard some noise in the kitchen.

Mom. Is that you?

He tiptoed towards kitchen.

He saw a women standing near the gas stove with her back towards him.

Mom.

She turned towards him but it was not his mom. As she had no eyes on her face instead black holes.
