IT'S AFTERNOON TIME

Ella return from her college to her PG room. She lives with 3 other girls of same age in the PG house. It is a guest house with two bedrooms and one dining area, one kitchen and one common bathroom attached. Each bedroom has one bunk bed and two reading desks in each.

After reaching home she didn't see anyone in the room. Well she knows the reason. The 2 roommates of the other bedroom has evening classes so they'll return home around night.

And her roommate, Sammy went for her dance class and also will be back at night. So after reaching the room Ella went to refrigerator and take out the milk and water bottle. She feels very tired and sleepy so she quickly make cornflakes and eat it. And leaving the pot in the sink she went to bed.

Ella's bed is the ground bed and Sammy's bed is the upper one.

......................

Wheh she enter the room unexpectedly she saw Sammy on her bed lying down, back facing her.

Ella thought in her mind : (Strange, didn't she go for dance class? Is she sick? Is she sleeping?)

Ella: Sammy, are you sick?

Getting no answer and being too sleepy she went to her own bed and lie down.

After few minutes passes, she suddenly heard a sound of rustling on the upper bed

Ella (in mind): (Maybe Sammy is awake now.)

But just then a call comes in her phone. She takes her phone. But when she read the caller ID *Sammy'

"Huh?"

She said to the person above : Sammy, why are you calling me? You can just tell-

Her voice stuck in her throat seeing the next scene...a lady with long hair peeking from the upper bunk bed directly towards her . And that lady's face is white pale , eye dark red.

Ella couldn't scream and that person isn't blinking. Instead she gives a creepy smile to Ella tilting her head a little saying 'Hello' to Ella.

Her voice was UNEARTHLY and it gives a chill through Ella's spine. She managed to pick up the phone but couldn't utter a word. From the other side of phone Sammy is saying 'hello, Ella. Why aren't you answering?'

Then the lady from the upper bunker jump down to the ground and run towards the window and jump from there.

Ella's soul almost left her body seeing her jump and she witnessed the whole thing and then fainted.

...****************...

After half an hour her roommate worriedly come back. She also calls the other roommates too.

After waking up Ella keep staring at the window. Who was that lady? Where did she go? Was she a human? But the room is in 5th floor. And there is no Balcony or tree outside the window to climb down.

WHO WAS SHE?

...****************...

A/N : So who was she? Where did she come from? All these unanswered questions.
