Stirring slowly, she opened her eyes taking in the unfamiliar surroundings.
She looked around but her mind was too groggy.
She tried to get up, but felt stiff all over.
She could feel it in her bones that something terrible had happened to her
She shouted but the voice she heard was no louder than a rat’s squeak.
And then the stench of urine that had fermented the whole night hit her.
Hot tears welled up in her eyes as the last she remembered was entering this beautiful room at the resort and drinking something that her boyfriend gave her.

At least she’s not killed, but has to live with the trauma for a lifetime… Really wish all this never happened.
May this never happen to anybody, ever!

May be, he is the one responsible for this state of hers! 🙁

A horrible reality…. 🙁
This keeps on happening each day with numerous young souls who trust people for what they are not 🙁 Amazing take on the prompt 🙂
Oh yes, this breach of trust by known people is not uncommon! And so many people are victimized.
Thanks Sushree! 🙂
A powerful take on the prompt….This should not happen to anyone..
True that! Thanks Jayanta!
Such a terrible thing to happen to a young girl and the memory would haunt her forever.

Yes, a sad and tragic reality for many girls! 🙁
Very sad. Terrible experience.

I like it,but,its too sad.There is a msg in this.
In our society,such creeps do exist.
Wish such things simply vanish from our society!
That’s terrible…but not all that uncommon I suppose. Great take on the prompt Shilpa!
Yeah, we keep hearing of such mishaps in the media! Thanks PB!
So dreadful story!! I hope she recovers from that nightmare very soon.. 🙁
Hope she does! While the physical scars may heal, the mental scars may take a long long time to heal!
OH NOoooooo.. that is disgusting ..

Hope girls are more cautious and learn to listen to their inner voice too!
ohh god that’s terrible. A pretty picture but grim tale.
I know, but it is a harsh reality of the times we live in!
Life can be so cruel at times.
Unfortunately, such incidents are on the increase in our society.
You handled a sensitive topic very well.
A sad and a grim reality of our society! Thanks Huma.
Young minds are so easily lured into traps that promise love and better life. When truth hits them, it is too late… Wonderfully narrated Shilpa!!
At times like these rationality, caution and sanity are thrown out of the window. And one can only regret and repent later. Thank you Reshma!
Oh 🙁
That’s sad. I wonder how he could misuse her trust.
Well, anything can happen in this world.
May strength be with her !
Oh there are all kind of people in this world, who have no qualms in using and manipulating and destroying people! 😐
This is really scary! How can someone so close do something like this? Wonder how…
Only callous demented people can do such things!
Ah, pretty much a story happening these days. Sigh! Just one of the many forms of cruelties being borne by women. Well written 🙂
Sad reality! 😐
Thanks Jyotsna!
Oh dear the poor girl. This is probably a reality for some though.
True that! 🙁
Looking at the picture I thought there’ll be some twist. But very well written. Such a sad state for many people.
Really heart wrenching! 🙁
oh no…Every girl needs to be so cautious about what is happening with them..good twist at the end..
True, in times like today, one should be very careful and should not trust blindly! Thanks P!
Really nice Shilpa, you have shown the reality….such date-rape crimes have become really common these days. The description was touching and made the entire trauma come out real.
Thanks Ankita!
