In evening, 4:30 pm.
It was a pleasant evening. Sella , wearing jeans and white flower printed top with a watch of wide black belt on her wrist, was paddling with her friend, Jennie . The scene in front of their eyes was amusing. The road, was neat, either sides of which were the footpaths and then a ground covered with the withered yellow leaves🍂, shedded from the trees in the forest. The surface(soil) of the ground, which was concealed by the leaves🍂spreaded all over , was not visible at all. The sky was blue with slightest reddish in colour. The sun was about to set. The road was empty and peaceful with the chirping of birds.
Suddenly, they saw a small, old fashioned and indeed old but in high speed car coming.
Coincidentally, it stopped beside the two girls. A fat middle aged man , sweating all over, with a tensed look on face was driving the car. He seemedi to be in hurry, at first, looked around and checked the car from inside.
The man looked at the two girls and said ,
" Excuse me girls! Would you mind helping me?" [In calm tone].
"Yes, why not.how can we help you, sir ?",they replied.
"Please check the engine if there is any problem", he said, "while I try to start the car. "
Sella went at car's back while Jennie checked in front. The car was indeed old fashioned by which the girls were not familier with. Sella opened something at the back, it was not engine as she thought but the dikki of car, where she saw a big Red bag- A certainly an old faishion bag but was chic.
suddenly the car started and the man moved quickly without saying any word.
Both the girls were surprised and perplexed as they were holding the red bag.........which they picked up just to check the car.
They tried to stop him but failed as the man had already fled away.
"Jennie! what do we do now?", Sella said with an expression of guilt on her face.
"What do we do? Actually, what will you do? You picked it up , right? Who are you? Do I know you?"
Jennie replied and then started moving away from Sella.
" Hey you! where are you running? you hopeless creature."
"Just kidding. HeHeHee"
"Should we handover this bag to the police?", Sella suggested.
"I guess so but there is not a single Police station nearby.......", Jennie replied," it's even getting late, if we choose to go to the police then it might take us mid-night to return home"
The girls were confused what to do next with the bag. They started trolling with the hand holding the bag. Seemed like a normal clothing bag having the stuffs like usual clothes or other necessities of that man , the girls remained uncurious about the bag.
Keep on brooding and discussing about the bag, they reached to the turn.
They had two path( left or right turn) - first path, to choose the way to their home and the other is to the military campus nearby.
...🍁《WHICH OPTION TO CHOOSE?》🍁...
Standing on the turn, both the girl thinking what to do?........
Suddenly, a white vehicle, looking like a truck but smaller than that( semi-truck), appeared with a very high speed. Going in the same direction as that the red car went to earlier. In spin of the direction of girls.
"I guess they are chasing someone." Jennie assumed.
"Hm.......seems like." ,Sella replied, "wait........don't tell me they are after that red car, this bag's owner from earlier! cause only that car went to that way so far"
" I saw the faces of those men in the semi-truck, they didn't seemed like the nice guys." , Jennie uttered.
There was suddenly a strange silence , making the atmosphere terrifying.
" There is something chilling down on my spine. Those guys were looking terrifying and even seemed furious. Is this bag related to them? Are we in a danger.", Jennie cried.
"Now it is suspicious! Let's check what is inside this bag. Even though it's a bad habit to check it without permission, we cannot deny the facy that this bag may contain dangerous things.", said Sella.
"Yeah, it may even contain illegal stuff as well or something that we cannot keep with us." Jennies replied in a scared vioce.
"Let's open it there, behind that big tree ( pointing towards a huge tree in the corner). Okay ", suggested Sella.
They headed towards that tree, concealed the bag and themselves behind it.
" Let's put this back here.", said Jennie.
"Yeah"
"Open it quickly!"
"Wait it's locked", Sella stammered,"what to do now?"
Jennie searched here and forth. Then her eyes strucked on a small rock. She asked Sella to bring a stone to break the lock.
Sella picked a heavy rock from the shattered leafy ground and started hitting the lock inseccently.
"It's broken now!", Jennie cried, " open it ! hurry !"
They unzipped the bag and opened it , but there was nothing like casual stuff , like-clothes, papers, etc...as usually these type of bags were used to contain.
It was something else which left the girls perplexed.
After opening the bag, both the girls went blank, they were expressionless. They looked at each others face.
The bag, was completely empty........
After few seconds......
"What the hell !", Jennie cried ," I was worrying for nothing!! Wah! It's a waste of time. Let's just return tlhis bag in the army campus or just throw it here and then head back to home. You say?"
" no comment ••••(*sigh*) but still it's a relief that there is nothing harmful in it" , said Sella in disappointment.
"But still........atleast it should have *something casual, it's just completely empty. You found nothing good.", Jennie complained.
"Look at you. Talking as if we intentially rob this bag and are griefing cause it's empty*."
While closing the bag in disappointment, a tiny paper slipped from it with queer words or drawing on it .
"Hey Sella! what's this strange words written on it............"
