The Saviour

The street was dusky and busy.

I was walking, without paying attention on anything around me. My eyelids were so heavy and I doubted whether I would reach home safely. I was exhausted with the work loads and its pressure. Being a scientist was my dream, but sometimes the work made me crazy.

I kept my foot forward to cross the road. I saw the shadow of a truck darting towards me. Even though I wanted to move beside, I was late and within seconds it approached me.. I screamed out for help. But the next moment,

SSSPPLLLAAASSHH….

**********************************************

When I opened my eyes I was lying on my couch. I tried to recollect what actually had happened. I pinched my arms to make sure that I was still alive.

“Hey, look here Bella”, I turned my face to the direction of the voice. There was no one at my house. But the voice… 

“Why don’t you take care while crossing the road? “, the question echoed in the hall. I felt strange and had a glance at the room.

A dwarf, with large bulged out blue eyes and green body was standing beside my side. His eyes were not proportionate with his face, even we can’t call it as a normal face. It was triangle in shape nose was just two holes below the eyes.

I felt as if I will faint.

“Bella, don’t get scared. I was the one who helped you.”, the dwarf’s voice was filled with disappointment. I couldn’t believe what he said, being that small creature how could he save me. But the worst part was I had to believe him since I was still alive and was safe at my home.

“Who are you?”, I asked him in an nervous voice.

The reply was just tears, rolling through his so-called-cheeks.

I was busy in my lab. All preparations were done and I rechecked every machines. The dwarf was sitting on a couch, at the corner of the room.

“You are ready right? “, I asked him in feeble voice.  He was the last member of his race, existed on earth. It was miserable for him to live his life, alone. I wanted to help him, as a return for saving my life from the accident. I was about to transfer all human nature to him from me, so that I can make him a human.

Dwarf nodded his head in agreement. I walked near him and kept my hands at his weak arms, I couldn’t believe it was this hands which took me and flew away from the site of accident.

I switched on the machines. Many anxious moments were passed. My eyes were longing to see the human formed from the dwarf. I had set my eyes on the dwarf.

But what surprised me was the green color transmitting to my body and the two eyes getting bulged out of my triangle face.
