It is a different kind of world – Earth, we call it. Life is a term coined for a mere existence of an entity – live or die. Unfathomable as to where it goes, when the term toggles between the states.

Shiv: Are you there?

Silence prevailed.

Are you there? Can you hear me?

Hear who – me?

I need you. What am I doing alone? Who is this? Reality?

Yes.

Confused?

Even more.

I need help. Help me… Help me please… Why is she like this? Why does she not respond to my screams? Why are her eyes swollen and teary? Is she leaving me? Am I alone? What happened? What is she talking to Krish? I cannot hear her… Hello… Naren, What is happening? Why aren’t you not responding? I am talking to myself like a mad man… Krish.. Why don’t you say something? There is something wrong here.

Oh God. It is getting too bright and cold out here. My Vision.. it is.. it is all getting skewed up. [His language falters] I am forgetting something. Something is amiss. I.. I..

Do I really have to leave you? I promised I will never leave you in distress… Kavis… Kavis… I will miss you..

[Narrator]

It’s time to depart. The “Soul” vanishes with a big pain in its conscience; Yes, the Soul’s Conscience. As time wanes on, the soul and the conscience forgets the past, its language, beliefs and its acquaintances. The body is empty without a soul. It no longer LIVES. Is this the end? Question is - “Where did it begin?”

The End
