Episode 17
I've been sleeping alot..
Eun Jihun
*(I should just start investigating..)*
I stood up. Took my side back filled with necessary stuff like torch, notepad and a camera and made my way to upstairs.
Eun Jihun
*(I should directly aim on finding the workroom.)*
Firstly, I entered the store room — which was a mess.
Shuffled with random blank canvases.
I opened some cupboards, which were filled with old, dusty books.
Eun Jihun
*(Hmm.. Nothing interesting.)*
I noted down the names of the books. Just in case..
When I closed the cupboard, suddenly, one book, which was kept on the top fell on my head.
I rubbed my head and picked up the book.
It was a journal — a diary.
Pages were stuffing out of it, suffocating.
The entrance page was blank.
I flipped the page; causing a bunch of paper pieces to almost fall down.
Eun Jihun
*(Seems like the person torn the pages..)*
I collected them back and flipped another page.
But a very strange message written on it..
Which.. seemed disturbing.
Eun Jihun
*(What did this mean?)*
A diary entry was written over.
"𝘛𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘺.. 𝘐 𝘸𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘭𝘦'𝘴 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦. 𝘐 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯'𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴, 𝘴𝘰 𝘐 𝘸𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘴𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘵, 𝘴𝘰 𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘦."

Eun Jihun
*(Hallucinating..)*
"𝘐𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘐 𝘸𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘬 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘪𝘮, 𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘢𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘦. 𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘰𝘯?"
"𝘐 𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘩."
"𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘶𝘯𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘺, 𝘴𝘰 𝘐 𝘵𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳."
"𝘏𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘥— '𝘏𝘺𝘶𝘯𝘨, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘨𝘰 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘪𝘴𝘵."
"𝘛𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘺, 𝘐 𝘵𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘧𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐'𝘮 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘱. 𝘏𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯'𝘵 𝘣𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘭𝘺."
Eun Jihun
*Flips another page*
"𝘋𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺
𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐'𝘮 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘋𝘢𝘥, 𝘪𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴, 𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘣𝘶𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘯 𝘰𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴.

𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘣𝘺𝘦."
I closed the diary and kept it inside my bag.
I moved on from the cupboard and glanced around the room.
I saw a small drawer table.
It was filled with melted wax.
Eun Jihun
*(Strange.. did someone used to light up candles inside a drawer?)*
Next was a giant canvas; painted with red color standing with the support of the wall.
I slightly touched it, and it suddenly moved, then fell down.
Eun Jihun
Aah! *Falls down along with the canvas on top*
I managed to push it away from me and sit up.
.. Just to get surprised by the art imprinted on my shirt after it fell on me.
Eun Jihun
*(What the!? How is the color still intact??)*
I touched the canvas, the color on it was dried.
Then how did it stained my clothes?!
Eun Jihun
*(Ugh.. whatever. I should clean this mess first..)*
