The lake
350 Words
After a while, when she got up to leave, she couldn't believe her eyes. The whole cupboard was glowing extremely bright. The only sound she could hear was the sound of waves, as if a strong wave was hitting the shore, and someone calling her name, NOORI. She was constantly hearing her name from inside the cupboard. Noori opened the cupboard and what she saw was magical. She saw all her old torn out clothes had been turned new and even more adorable. Even the old wooden planks of her cupboard had been turned new and even more fashionable. She saw the leaf was placed on one of her diary. She began wondering where the magical lake could be located.
After a while, she opened an atlas book and began to read the pages. Even after a long effort, she couldn't find any sign of a mysterious lake on her atlas. Noori couldn't find what she was looking for. She folded the book back to normal and moved towards her shelf. As she reached the bookshelf to place the atlas, she again heard the same voice. It was again calling her name but this time with an intensity even more than before. She was totally afraid after this. All she could do was just to ignore the sound, place the atlas in the shelf and run away from the room. As she was placing the book, she saw a little folded paper placed on the shelf. She took the paper and opened the folded parts. The very paper was a map to the mysterious lake. The map was drawn from Noori's house to the magical lake. And the lake was located over the small hill near her college area.
Noori was in a dilemma thinking about everything that had happened. Whether she should actually go and see if it's all real or just ignore all these. "What if someone is really waiting for me? What if he or she has something important for me to know?" Noori said to herself. Noori finalizes to go there once her examination was over.
