Am I Free ???

I still remember that night. About 1 year before a mysterious dream went through me, while I was sleeping. Someone knocked my door, it was raining out and the night was really very dark .I tried watching through eyehole but it didn’t helped me out. I opened the door there was a man standing in front of me, tied with chains. I was afraid though i was unable to see the face it was looking dull, I realized i have to go to eyes specialist to change my number again. But my mind came out of that when I again thought of that man. He cried and begged in front of me please…….please help me out, free me from these chains. I thought i should help him out, as i moved my hands to open his chain he laughed at me and said to me:”How would you free me??? You too are like me”. I was shocked and a little rude and closed the door without any helps. And there I could hear voice of my alarm clock. I took a little time to think over that dream but remembered I m late by 5 minutes. Damn I m getting late ufff……………. As I went to office I was about 15 minutes late. My boss called me to his cabin, he was angry on me and told me:This is the second time I m warning you. You are always late to office. We are not giving you salary for free.” I said sorry and came out of the cabin. My mood was upset because of that dream and my f**king boss, still have much work to do, so I got busy again with my work.

Days went off, each day same shit, nothing special, nothing new all boring work and work. Ohh yeah have to send salary to home, I just thought about that hmmmm…… what’s next lets check the call history. Ooops 3 missed call 2 from office and 1 from home, there is a message too attached to it. “Seems like you have forgot everything, the billing dates are near, when u gonna send the money???”

Months went off each month same schedule. Finally got holiday, so came home. Ahhhh at last gonna be free. Reached the door took a deep breath of relaxation and got my finger on the door bell. All came out to welcome me, the king is back to his kingdom. All asked me about me “How are you??You looking very thin, they don’t give u food to eat kya???” Had lunch with the family, slept after that as I was tired. Good morning……..oops its evening slept in noon after a long time. “The dinner is ready”: mom shouted. “Yeah, coming mom”. Wow my favorite dish: “Thanks mom”. While having dinner pop said: “So when you getting promotions???”. “Yeah soon maybe”: I replied. “How much money you getting right now???” “45,000 Rps right now.” Chats gone for a long time, but dunno what I said, dad got angry on me. ”Do what you wanna do it’s your own life, you never care for anyone. Just look at Mr. Sharma’s son, he too is of same age as you are………..” : he said. Mom came in between taking my side, stopped father. I came to my room, mood was spoiled. Why a father always thinks that his son lie no where??? I was not feeling sleeping by any chance, so jus jumped on my bed with my eyes wide open, lights OFF only a dim lamp was ON. Don’t remember when I slept, that same dream came again. But the face was not dim this time, I was shocked to see that man, he looked like me……..i mean he was me. I was confused. He laughed at me and asked me: “So, now are you free??? Is your life in your hand or you have to depend on others for your decisions…….What are you working for??? Your relations or yourself or just for money??? You are just living for relations, You are not living relations.” He said that and vanished and the dream too was broken. I wasn’t able to sleep after that….That dream really made me think over it…………………….AM I REALLY FREE???????
