Lisa in the morning woke up. She found Brian already awake. He was talking with the phone outside. She went to look for him and found him sitting next to the pool. She wanted to call out for him but something he was saying on the phone caught her attention. So she instead listened quietly.
"… No I'm not saying she's not good enough I'm just worried you know."
" Yeah it's been two years now. I don't think I can stay that long with no kids. I don't blame her you know but it's just not right. I'm a man and I too want my own kids."
" Plus she's been acting a little weird lately I don't know what's going on."
" Look I'll talk to you later I have to go." Then he hangs up the phone. He turns around to meet Lisa's angry face.
"Babe look…"
"It's not that I can't have children. The problem is you are not worth enough for me to bear your children." With that Lisa stormed away.
She went upstairs to change her clothes and prepared to visit her friend Diana. Brian on the other hand didn't even try to apologize for what he did. Lisa just left disappointed to Diana's house. She found her relaxing in the couch watching some TV. Her little ones had already gone to school.
"Lisa!!" She locked her in a warm embrace.
" Hey Dee."
"Is everything alright?"
" I guess." Lisa sat down.
" What happened?" She sat down concerned.
" It's Brian. I don't really think everything is working between us."
" What? But why do you say so?"
"I can't have children and he wants children. I heard him talking on the phone today…. I don't blame him though , I mean it's not his fault I'm cursed like this."
" Please don't say that , you are not cursed ." Diana placed her hands over Lisa's.
Lisa snorts. "You really have no idea how surprising life can be. There's more to this world than just what you see."
" Maybe so. But you can't blame yourself of something you don't even know."
" I'm not. I just have the feeling there's more , more danger , more pain. Maybe I'm just going crazy I don't know."
" I know you're not crazy , you can never be crazy. I believe what ever you say but now maybe we should just relax and enjoy life.
"I can't argue with that." Lisa grinned. "Maybe we should get some fresh air, you know just the two of us."
" Agreed but I have to make sure the kids have someone to look after them."
" Please you are making me jealous. I love those little angels." Lisa giggled.
" And they love you too. I'm getting jealous that you might take my kids away." They both laughed.
"Jeez. They are your kids." She beamed.

Late night Lisa and Diana prepared to go to the club.
Lisa and Diana they drive to the club. One of their favorite clubs Delirium. On the way they sing a long listening to music. Suddenly Lisa became very blank. Diana noticed she was no longer driving to the direction of the club.
"Lisa is everything okay?" Diana asked starting to get scared.
She doesn't answer but only focused where she was going. She felt the need to go that way. Like something was calling for her.
After a long drive Lisa finally stopped in the middle of a forest. A forest that is known to be very dangerous especially during night time.
"Lisa what are you doing?" Diana was really scared and confused.
Lisa doesn't answer but just opened her side of the door. She closed it and starts walking towards the forest. Diana tried to call out for her but it's like she couldn't hear anything. Diana sat on the car hesitating to follow her but she ended up following her anyways. She was worried if something really bad happens to her friend. She ran after her and both walked side by side in the scary forest. Lisa somehow didn't feel scared. For some reason she knew the forest is not bad as they say. She knew nothing was going to attack them. She finally reached a black gate in front of her. She opened it and walked inside. Again a place she felt like she really knew.
"How do you know this place?" Diana stares at the old looking house. It's like it's been here for a really long time. Lisa walked straight to the house and went inside. She definitely knew the place but didn't know how. Then she went upstairs to the bedroom. The dark black bedroom. She looked around searching.
The smell , the warmth , the air felt so familiar.
It felt like a place she once knew , a home she once lived in. It's really strange how all this thing feel so familiar to her , first the restaurant now a house in the middle of nowhere.
"Common Lisa let's go. I don't feel very safe around here." Diana reached out for her friend. Lisa hesitates for a moment then follows Diana. They had straight back to the car.
"There's something about that place."
" Definitely you just drove here out of nowhere in the middle of the woods." She got inside the car.
" Do you think I'm losing my mind?"
"No. If something is bothering you then you just have to figure out what it is. Like I said you can never be crazy bit don't ever scare me like that again."
Lisa sighs and rests her head on the passenger seat. Diana this time decided to drive the car. As fast as she could she was out of the the forest to the club. Lisa felt alright the whole way though she was a little disturbed by the events. She was trying to understand , why the things happening are happening. What's wrong?
They finally arrived in the club.
"Finally we are here!" They both laughed striding in. As usual the club was packed, they had to push through the people to get to the club. They decided to get a few drinks before hitting the dance floor. Together they were definitely having some fun , well not until Lisa spots something disturbing some where in the club.
