[ Kavya:- A house wife, and a lawyer,
Aaditya:- A working and very busy person
Siddharth:- Son of Aaditya and kavya, a 16 year old boy who is very energetic and his class 10 final exams are near. ]
[Scene] [ 2 Days After — New Delhi, Vasant Kunj, Sector 2, House No. 1- B- 6]
Kavya (worried, rushing to her son):
"What's happening to you, my son? Are you ill?"
Aaditya (concerned, kneeling beside him):
"Siddharth…
look at me. Tell me what's wrong."
Siddharth (breathing heavily, eyes wide):
"I saw ...—I saw someone…
Aaditya: " whom you saw.?"
Siddharth:"I saw myself."
(A moment of silence, Confusion, Fear. The room feels colder.)
---
Siddharth (still shaken, voice barely above a whisper):
"But… he wasn't just someone who looked like me…"
Siddharth (louder now, eyes locking with his father's):
"He is me.
(Aaditya and Kavya exchange a stunned look. The room falls into a thick silence.)
Kavya (softly):
"What do you mean, Siddharth ? Like a reflection…?"
Siddharth (standing slowly, voice trembling):
"No. He was real. I could hear him breathing.
He looked right at me...
...and he was also confused and surprised."
---
[Date: 20 April 2025 – Sunday | Location: Vasant Kunj, New Delhi | House No. 1- B-6]
Siddharth (sitting on the edge of the bed, hands trembling slightly):
Kavya (rushing to the kitchen and back, handing him a glass):
"Here, Sidd… drink some water. Calm down."
Aaditya (placing a hand on his shoulder, steady and reassuring):
"Just breathe slowly, okay? We're right here.
Tell us everything—what exactly happened?"
Siddharth (gulps the water, still shaking slightly):
"It happened on my way home from play ground….
At the "SC Bose" park which lies in the way to home "
Kavya :
"At the park..., what happened there...?"
Siddharth (nodding):
I saw a crowd , talking about a weird boy,
I went there also to check,
What's going on
And then…
What I Saw...
Aaditya:"what did you saw...?"
Siddharth:"I saw a face , which i can't forget,
Because it was my face"
I can't forget that...
Same body, Same face,same hairstyle ,even the same clothes
It was like looking into a mirror…
Except he was moving before I did."
(A beat of silence. The parents stare, unsure whether to believe or be afraid.
---
Siddharth (sitting on the edge of the bed, hands trembling slightly):
Siddharth (quietly):
"I saw a boy... who looked exactly like me."
Kavya (stunned):
"What…....."
Kavya :
"You mean—someone who resembled you?"
Siddharth (shaking his head):
"No. Not resembled. He was me. Every detail was the same.
It was around 6 PM , when I returned from play ground."
Aaditya (narrowing his eyes):
"You're sure it wasn't a trick? A mirror? A prank?"
Siddharth (voice tense):
"I wish it was. But… he moved before I did.
---
Siddharth:
"And then… he looked at me.
We both just stood there, completely shocked. Like seeing a ghost in daylight.
Our first reaction? Silence.
Our second? We both whispered:
'How…?'"
(He pauses, breathing heavily, reliving the moment.)
"I panicked. I ran.
But… he followed me."
(beat)
"We stopped near the old underpass. Just… stared at each other.
And then we both asked the same question at the same time:
'Who are you?'"
Aaditya (quietly):
If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
"And what did he say?"
Siddharth:
"He told me his name,
It was Siddharth."
(A long silence)
"And then… we both stunned. I don't know what happened next.
When I opened my eyes… I was alone.
I ran home as fast as I could."
---
Aaditya (leaning forward, his tone firm but calm):
"Siddharth, listen to me. You're not in trouble.
But this is serious.
You're saying someone out there… looks exactly like you. Acts like you. Knows your name.
That's not a coincidence."
(He glances at Kavya, then back at his son.)
Aaditya:
"Tomorrow—we're going to that place together.
If there's something strange going on, we're going to find out."
---
[Scene: The next day – 21 April 2025 | Sector 3 Park, New Delhi]
Kavya (looking around, scanning the park):
"This is the place, right?"
Siddharth (nodding slowly):
"Yeah. That's where I saw the crowd… right near that bench."
(Aaditya approaches a couple of street vendors nearby.)
Aaditya (to a vendor):
"Excuse me, do you remember anything strange that happened here two days ago?
Like a kid… who looked confused? Or maybe a crowd gathering?"
Vendor (shrugs):
"Sir, it's a park. Crowds form all the time—kids fight, people gossip.
I don't remember everything."
(They try asking a few more people—joggers, elderly walkers, a group of teens—but all give the same kind of vague response.)
Teenager (half-interested):
"I mean… weird stuff happens here now and then, but I don't remember anything like that.
Plus, there are no cameras here or anything."
Kavya (murmuring to herself):
"No cameras… no proof…"
Aaditya (his face tightening):
"It's like it never happened."
(They all stand in silence for a moment, the breeze rustling the trees, the sound of children laughing somewhere in the background—normal, peaceful… too normal.)
Siddharth (softly):
"But I know what I saw."
[Scene: Later that Night | Home – Vasant Kunj, New Delhi]
(The family returns home. The sky is dark, quiet, and a little heavy. Inside the house, the silence is thicker.)
Kavya (gently brushing Siddharth's hair as he lies on the bed):
"Just rest now, beta. Try to sleep.
We're here, okay?"
Aaditya (softly):
"We'll talk more in the morning. Don't think too much about it tonight."
(They dim the lights and walk quietly into the living room.)
Aaditya (sitting down, rubbing his forehead):
"Do you… believe him?"
Kavya (sighs, unsure):
"I don't know, Aaditya.
It didn't sound like he was lying. But it's… unbelievable.
Maybe it's not real. Maybe… some kind of negative energy is affecting him."
Aaditya (nodding slightly):
"Or maybe it's just stress.
He's been under pressure lately—school, expectations, everything."
Kavya (quietly):
"I just want him to be okay."
Aaditya (decisively):
"Let's not take chances. Tomorrow morning, we're taking him to a psychotherapist.
Kavya (suggesting):
"Why don't we take him to Adithi"
Aaditya:
"Yes you are right, she is also a good psychologist"
[ Kavya, Aaditya, Adithi, and Raghav are very good friends in college]
Kavya:
"Alright."
(A pause. Then kavya looks toward the hallway.)
Kavya:
"Hey…
Why don't we sleep with him tonight? Might help him feel safe."
Aaditya (soft smile):
"Yeah… that sounds like a good idea."
(They quietly enter Siddharth's room and settle beside him. The room falls into a warm silence as the night drapes over them.)
[Scene: 22 April 2025 – Morning | Vasant Kunj, New Delhi]
(The sunlight filters through the curtains. Kavya leans over Siddharth with a gentle smile.)
Kavya:
"Are you feeling better now?"
Aaditya (entering with a cup of tea):
"Good morning, son. How was your sleep?"
(Siddharth sits up slowly, silent. He glances at his parents, then looks down. In his heart, words echo that he won't say aloud.)
Siddharth (inner thoughts):
I know you don't believe what I told you…
But I also know you love me.
You even slept beside me to make me feel safe… Thanks mom and dad

[Scene: 11:00 AM – Doctor's Clinic, South Delhi]
Caption: Sunday, April 27, 2025
Location: Tranquil Heaven Mind Clinic – Sector 43, Gurgaon
A modern, peaceful facility surrounded by neem trees and blooming bougainvillea. The air feels still, the silence unnerving.
---
Aditya parks his car and walks up the white stone steps of the clinic. The signboard gently swings in the breeze: "Tranquil Heaven Mind Clinic – Dr. Aditi Sharma, Chief Psychiatrist."
[ Storyteller : Enter Dr. Adithi—a college friend, now a respected psychotherapist. Calm, brilliant, trusted.]
Interior – A quiet lounge with pale blue walls, soft instrumental music playing. Aditya sits across from Adithi in her consultation room.
(Inside the calm, warmly lit office of Dr. Adithi, a kind-faced woman in her late 30s. She smiles as Siddharth , Aaditya and kavya enters.)
Dr. Adithi:
"Hello, Abhi. Sit here, beta.
I heard you've been worrying your mom and dad lately. What's going on?"
Siddharth (murmuring):
"Nothing… Aunt."
Dr. Adithi (smiling gently):
"Come on. You're safe here. There's nothing to be scared of.
Tell me everything—start from the beginning."
(Siddharth nods slowly and begins to recount everything—about the crowd, the boy who looked just like him, their meeting.)
Dr. Adithi (after a pause):
"Okay, thank you for sharing, Siddharth.
You are very brave,
You've done well."
(She calls the nurse and asks her to take Siddharth to the rest area for some quiet time. Once he leaves, Adithi turns to Kavya and Aaditya.)
Adithi:
"What do you think, Aaditya?"
Kavya (panicked):
"Adithi, what's wrong with my son?
Please tell me… was he telling the truth?"
Aaditya (gently calming her):
"Kavya… let's listen to her first."
Adithi (serious):
"I've known Sidd., since he was little.
He's a bright, energetic boy.
But today… he's not the same. His eyes, his posture, his tone—everything's changed.
I don't think he's lying."
Aaditya:
"Then what's your conclusion?"
Adithi:
"I can't give you one just yet.
But here's what I suggest—take him away from the city.
Let his mind breathe. I'll keep looking into this on my side.
Go somewhere quiet for a week. Shimla, maybe?"
---
[That Evening – At Home]
(Siddharth sees his mother folding clothes into a suitcase.)
Siddharth:
"Mom… what are you packing for?
Are we going somewhere?"
Kavya (smiling):
"Yes, beta. Your dad got a week off from work.
So we're going to Shimla for a vacation."
Siddharth (softly):
"Okay…"
Kavya (gently):
"Now go to sleep. We leave early tomorrow.
You need the rest."
---
[Next Day – 23 April 2025 | Departing for Shimla]
(The family loads their bags into the car. The morning sky is bright but distant. The journey begins, but so does something much deeper—the road to uncovering what lies behind Siddharth's reflection.)
---
[1 Week later]
[Scene: 30 April 2025 | Afternoon – Vasant Kunj, New Delhi]
(The car pulls into the driveway. The family returns from their week-long escape to the hills of Shimla. The house feels strangely colder after the warm mountain days.)
Kavya (placing bags near the door):
"It's good to be back, though.
I'll unpack and start lunch."
Aaditya (checking his watch, then looking thoughtful):
"I'm heading out for a while.
I need to meet Adithi."
Kavya (turning, slightly surprised):
"Now? You just got back."
Aaditya (firmly):
"It's important.
She might have found something. I don't want to wait."
Kavya (nodding, concerned):
"Okay… keep me updated. And drive safe."
(Aaditya grabs his car keys and steps outside. The engine hums to life as he drives off, thoughts racing faster than the traffic around him.)
---
[Scene – Tranquil Heaven Mind Clinic, Vasant Kunj, South Delhi]
Interior – Doctor Adithi's private consultation room.
Wooden blinds filter in soft daylight. A muted clock ticks in the background. Aditya and Adithi sit across from each other, tension rising.
---
Aditya: "Did you find anything..?
Do you know what happened there at that day..?"
Adithi (calmly):
"Don't panic, Aditya. First—tell me. How was Sidd., this week?"
Aditya (exhaling):
"He's a better… but he hasn't forgotten the incident. It's stuck with him."
Hello started to enjoy, but I didn't know how much time he takes to recover."
Adithi (nodding slowly):
"Yes, I understand. I've been digging into this quietly. And I found something."
A pause.
"A video."
---
Aditya sits upright, concerned.
Aditya:
"A video?"
Adithi (serious):
"Yes. I couldn't believe it myself. That day… there really was a boy surrounded by a crowd."
---
Aditya (impatient):
"Show me the video"
Adithi (showing the video):
"Have a look on it"
Aditya (leaning forward):
"Wait… was it Sidd.? Was he the one they were looking at?
"But wait, what is he talking about "
Adithi:
"He was saying about multiverse and parallel worlds"
"He was saying that he came from a different world or a parallel world
Aaditya ( shock and trembling):
"Wh.. what do you mean by diff.. different world or parallel world.....?"
