my hands twisting the door knob trying to open the door up.
"come on you stupid door!! open up!!the heck it's make no sense how it's locked by itself??!!" i said as I again tries to open that door.
when I suddenly felt a tap on my shoulder.
my breath hitched my hands started to shake as I slowly turns around only to found no one.
"w-who is the-there..?? c-co-come out"
my voice shaking , eyes terrifying
when from the corner from my eyes I catch something or someone moving. i yanked myself to my left side "who i-is there come o-on out"
than on my right i felt a presence. with shaking hands and widen eyes i turned around.
still no one
a cold wind fill the lobby.i look around only to find a little girl standing far away in lobby her face barely see able wearing a white knees length dress "he-hey there little g-girl are you stuck here as well..??"
i asked as I was trying to look at her face but that little girl has no response "um..wh-where are-e you fro-from"
I again asked. my heart beat racing every passing second.
that girl points towards a painting hanging on the wall.
"that painting??!! i-is there anything in-in that painting" I looked at the painting and again look at the little girl but she wasn't there anymore.
"hello lit- little girl ar-are you still here"
silence.
i closed my eyes my whole body shaking "why did I come here why there is no way I can go back now mom!! dad!! yuri!! someone please save me!!!"
i said my eyes tearing up.as I was in verge of crying I felt someone infront of me.
i gathered all courage and open my eyes
slowly.
"boo"
"AHHHHH"
i screamed top of my lungs and fell on my back my eyes closed, breathing become heavy. when I Heard giggling
"hehehe"
i slowly opened my eyes only to see the same little girl laughing. her skin pale,long black hair, soft features,big innocent like eyes.
i looked at her. still not believing what I just witness.
"wh-who are y-you?"
"ahh it's was so fun to scare you Hahaha"
she said while wiping her fake tears.her voice was soft just like a child.
"I'm mia. what's your name?"
she said.
"a-are you g-ghost-"
"YES!!"
she shouted.
"are you gonna ea-eat me....??"
i said my voice trembling.
"umm...??"
she looked at me from up to Down
"nope I'm not gonna eat you. i have a taste!!"
"excuse me!!??. that was very offensive..."
i said,offended.
"hehe just kidding... don't worry I won't eat you!"
"but you are the ghost...!!?"
"yes! but I don't eat humans.anyways why are you here?"
" i heard there is a room in this hotel that can take you back in time!"
her expression changed the face that had smile is now gone.
she looked around her and then at me.and leaned in.
"there is a room in this hotel"
she whispered.
"REALLY!!"
i couldn't believe my ears.
"geez! slow down human I may be ghost but I have ears too.."
mia the ghost said as she covered her ears with her hands.
"sorry! i was just so exited that it's not a rumour yess!!!"
a rush of happiness took over me.
"but... there are some things you need to follow to get back in past....."
"and...what are those.....???"
"I'll tell human but let's sit first"
she said and snaps her fingers and the lobby which was filled with darkness now was shining.
mia the ghost made her way towards an old sofa. and sat down.
"have a seat!"
she said and points towards the sofa facing her. i also gets up and made my way towards the sofa I sat down.
"tea or coffee??"
she asked. her voice sounds like she is serving a guest.
"umm nothing"
i said
"oh come on"
"umm tea... would be better...."
i said.
"great"
she said and again snaped her fingers and suddenly the table infront of me filled with a tea pot , two tea cups, some biscuits and some snacks.
i widened my eyes. it doesn't look like I'm literally seating with a ghost it's more feel like I'm visiting a reletive or a friend of mine.
"take it!!"
she said and hand me one of the tea cup and took one for herself.
"you didn't tell me your name yet!!??"
"ohh sorry. I'm Ada I live in the nearest town!!"
i replied to her.fixing myself. at first it's was pretty scary but she seems a nice girl oh sorry a nice Ghost.her age should be around 15 or 16 somthing.
"so why you wanna go back in past?"
she said making herself comfortable on the sofa.
"there is something I wanna fixed. a mistake I made.."
"ohh !!!"
"so tell me what I have to do to get back in time!!"
i said determine.
"well well there are few rules you must follow to get back in past"
"and what are those??"
i asked eagerly.
"I'll tell you but....."
"but?!!"
"if you didn't follow the rules you might get in big trouble human."
"what trouble??"
"if you break even one rule you might never come back!"
her voice serious.
"you must be kidding me...??"
"nope I'm serious!! look at me!!"
she said and points towards her face.
"so what are the rules??"
"Rule number one,"
Mia said, holding up a single finger and taking a slow, dramatic sip of her tea.
I leaned forward, my heart thumping against my ribs.
"Yes? What is it? Don't touch the walls? Don't scream? or do I have to dance-?"
"what- Nope,"
Mia grinned, her eyes sparkling with mischief.
"Rule number one: Never, ever check your phone for the time while you're inside Room."
I blinked.
"My phone? That's it? Why?"
"Because the last guy who checked his phone-....!!"
"ah ha what happened to him"
i said my hands on table my eyes fixed on her.
"oh nothing much he just went into another universe"
Mia said casually, dipping a biscuit into her tea.
i sat there dumbfounded.my mouth Hung opened.
"Plus, your phone battery drains super fast. and there gonna be no signals.Do you know how hard it is to get a Wi-Fi signal in here? Zero bars, human. Zero."
I stared at her, completely dumbfounded. "Are you serious right now? We are literally talking about time travel, and you're worried about Wi-Fi?"
"Hey! Ghosts like streaming shows too," Mia retorted, sticking her tongue out playfully.
"Anyway, ready for Rule number two?"
"somthing in me tell me that you are joking with me isn't it??"
"i thought you were stupid..!!"
"excuse me!"
"FINE!! you want to hear the real rulers than listen.."
