Episode 2

We arrived after a while. After paying the driver, I exited the taxi. It was my actual home because I lived here with my parents. They have the best memories. That was the happiest period of my life. However, when my mother got lost in this forest, everything scattered. We tried our best to find her but failed. When all hope was gone, my dad and I moved to Delhi. However, there is a secret that is hidden in the woods with my mom. And now, almost 12 years later, I am here to find answers to the questions that my mother buried with her.

The questions that came from a mysterious power.

Hmm, Where is the key?

Rupa's question jolted me out of my thoughts. Oh! here it is. I gave the key to her. She attempted to open the lock, but it appears to be rusted.

Let me try. I said, and fortunately, this time the lock opened when I tried to open it. We get into the house. It is far from the hustle and bustle of the city and close to the forest. Other than the house behind ours, there are not any other houses close by, but I doubt anyone would be leaving here.

I noticed an odd aura as soon as I entered the house. Rupa entered behind me as well, carrying the bags.

First things first, let us clean it. Rupa said.

I moved my gaze all over the area, there were spider webs all around, with some old furniture. I nodded and we both started cleaning. We cleaned the hall, my room, kitchen and bathroom. I was surprised to discover that there was still the supply of water.

Even though it was past midnight, and we still had two rooms to clean, we were exhausted. , "Uff.... I can not even stand now." Rupa sobbed.

I am exhausted too, so let us go to bed for now. We unpacked our belongings and set up the bed in my room. As soon as Rupa lay down on the bed, she fell asleep. I also led on the bed, and as I looked out the window, I noticed someone in that house. The house which was behind mine. I got up to conform and went to the window, where I noticed a man staring at me through a window. Wait I have seen him before.... My god! He is the same guy I saw in the taxi and in my dream. He vanished as soon as I looked at him.

Is he the same person, or is this just my imagination? My mind, however, was not in a functioning state. I returned to the bed and fell asleep.

The next morning I opened my eyes with difficulty, the intense sunlight glaring on my face. I turned to face Rupa, who was peacefully sleeping. I stood up from my bed and went to the window, and when I saw that house, I remembered that man, whom I had almost forgotten.

I was still considering it when all of a sudden I realized that I had remembered his face. Normally, I forget my dreams, but that scene was crystal clear.......
