Insomnia

"Hello Doctor"
"So insomnia again?
I guess there is no other go. I have to hypnotize you. Are you up for it? "
"Yup. There is no other option."
Saying thus she laid on the push back chair. The train of thoughts in her mind simply could not let her remain calm. The thoughts that hit her were  so petty that she could hardly remember it even after a few passing seconds. She drifted onto a road not travelled before. The commotion is the road was too  much to bear. There were cars and buses running haphazard with no sync. She could sense a distinct lack of cohesion and could feel the ground below her trembling.

To her  relief a small girl came and held her hands tightly. She felt a sigh of relief. Slowly the cars dwindled and  the  empty road began to gape at her rather eerily. The small girl who came to her rescue was nowhere to be seen. She felt really bad. "I ought to atleast thank her"-she to herself and started looking for her. The empty horizon aided her in spotting the girl at a distance.

In small girl's eyes she found a sort of  melancholy that attracted her to the girl's abode. She slowly paced her way into the house. Everything was so familiar to her.

 "She is not at all moving. Come on Addie please dont make me cry. Come on lets go on for a walk" exclaimed the tear-filled girl to her mother cuddling a limp poodle. 

"We have to break this slowly to her. Poor thing can never understand what has just happened." The mother whispered to her husband. He slowly lifted up the small girl. He took her for a small stroll. The small girl was visibly tired after all the crying. She laid in her bed and  said to her dad, "Why did addie not come with us for the walk?" "Addie will not be us anymore. Its because she is dead."
"So why he cant wake up?"
"How can I explain it to you? See death is a demon. Its like when you go to deep sleep, he engulfs you and one can  never wake up again!!! "

And thus the girl never slept properly again!!
