After few minutes he arrived to my house and said
"What Thomas, what is the time now, why are you so late my buddy?", Thomas said
"I am so sorry my friend, come lets do it now", Leo said
Then I started explaining the story to him and he exclaimed
"we can do it or not as it was very tuff, we need so much of support for this and we have less with us", Leo said
"We have to do it, its our prestigious matter, I challenged our opposite team and to the Principal too", Thomas said
"what have you challenged?" Leo said
"We will do it differently" Thomas said
"So you have decided to work on a horror story right?" Leo said
"yes" Thomas said
"so where is the location?, have you decided yet?" Leo asked "Not yet decided, but I am thinking of the old mysterious school which was situated nearer to the graveyard" Thomas said
"O my God, that school? it's really dangerous. Everyone's thought that there are real ghosts there. Some of them were killed too in that school. I won't come there, I am so scared to come there" Leo said
"Bull s**t, there is nothing like that don't worry I am with you" Thomas said
"But that ghost has no difference between you & me, everyone is equal to it. Even I don't there is one or more ghosts in that school" Leo said
"Ok we will do one thing, let's go there and find out if anything is there inside" Thomas said
"No I won't come, if my parents came to know this, they will kill me" Leo said
"what if you wanna say these all to your parents?" Thomas asked
"I am damn sure you won't listen to my words, ok let's go there" Leo said
"O not now we will go tonight, then only we will find out the ghost. If we go now might be there will be nothing notified due to day. I hear that ghost can be notified only at the night time" Thomas said
"So you decided to sacrifice my life to the ghost right?" Leo said
"Come on Leo, nothing will happen to us" Thomas said With lot of hard tries, I convinced him to go there tonight and planned everything. He stayed with me in my room till night had our dinner and waited till 12 am.
"Leo let's go now, it's 12 am this is the right to go there" Thomas said
"ok" Leo said
"Stop for a minute I had a wonderful idea" Thomas said
"What was that?" Leo said
"Let's hold the camera and shoot the whole thing what we will see there, we can add those in our short film, if anything captured there it will be more reliable. What do say?" Thomas said
"Hmmm great idea, but where is the camera? right now where do we find it?" Leo asked
"Already I adjusted it in the morning itself before you came here" Thomas said
"So you are everything prepared" Leo said
"Yes" Thomas said
Suddenly Mathew stopped reading the dairy and turning the pages fast as it was looking empty from there. He is thinking that, "what happened next, there is nothing in this dairy. I thought the two of them were dead in this building at that night only, as his mother also said that the two mortality was on that building only. Now what to do?, how to find out what happened to them?",
He saw the time accidentally and noticed that the time is 02:30 am and I thought it was too late laid on the bed and thinking this for long time laying on the bed and laid asleep without knowing to him.
The next day Morning - 07:30 am
His phone is ringing continuously, but not able to open his eyes and he thought it was dream. But his phone is ringing again and again. Then he woke up and opened his eyes slowly and attempted the call
"Hello", Mathew said
"Hello Mathew, Good Morning, Its me Mack", Mack said
"Good Morning Mack", Mathew said
"Have you woke now?", Mack asked
"Yes, I slept late night by reading your brother's dairy", Mathew said
"O,, did you found anything suspicious?", Mack asked
"No really, but..", Mathew replied
"Ok, I will come to your hotel and will discuss clearly", Mack said
"Ok in the meanwhile I will get ready", Mathew said
"I will be there in half and hour", Mack said
Mathew said ok, ends the call and stood up to refresh. He went immediately to the wash room. Few minutes later, he came out of the bathroom and noticed a strange figure near the big window in the room looks like a smoke and it appeared as woman peeping through the window.
"Who is that?", Mathew asked to it
No reaction from that and not even turned back
"Who is that?, he asked again by moving little forward
Then all of a sudden it moved towards Mathew very fast like a smoke and it disappeared suddenly. He closed his eyes and head with both his hands by bending a little like to protect himself. Few minutes later he opened his eyes and looked around but he has nothing found. He then sat on the sofa thinking about it and went into another world.
Again his phone is ringing after few minutes, then he came into realm and picked up the phone and saw who was it. It's Mack,
"Hello", Mathew said
"Hello, I am at the hotel now", Mack replied
"Ok, Ok, I will be there in five minutes', Mathew said
He then ended the phone and get ready dressed up, locked the door and went downstairs. He went nearer to Mack, greeted each other and went to the restaurant nearer to the Hotel. The two of the sat at the corner table where the two of them met yesterday, as they both think that there will be no disturbance if they sat on the corner table and ordered two coffee's.
"Now what's our plan?", Mack asked
"We have to visit James house, might be he know about the two of them mortality", Mathew replied
"Ok, then lets go", Mack said
The two of them had their coffee and started towards James house by booking a taxi. They have waited for time for the taxi arrival. Within 5 minutes taxi came and two of them get into it and started travelling towards James house. Hour an Hour later they reached James house, get off an paid the driver and went near to the door and rang the calling bell. Someone came out of the house, I think she is his mother..
"Hello Aunty, I am Mathew, James friend, we studied till 10th in the same school", Mathew said
"Hello dear, come inside", she replied
"Can you call him once Aunty", Mathew asked
"James??", she exclaimed
"You don't know what happened, as you are saying that you are a friend of him",
"Actually after my 10th exams I and my family left this city due to my father's transfer, now we have settled in Mumbai. My marriage date fixed so, I came yesterday and wanna call all my friends to my wedding", Mathew said
"Ooo ok, Good luck but Elsewhere James dear, he went to the world of no return", she replied with tears falling on her eyes towards chicks
"What are you saying aunty? what happened?", Mathew asked with fear
"He lay dead on the road suspiciously near to the abandoned school, no one know about what happened to him, he was dead by vomited blood from his mouth and from nose", she replied with tears
The two of them were in great confusion that what was happening around them and what to do now.
"Sorry for what happened Aunty", Mathew and Mack replied at a time
"It doesn't matter dear what will we do now, we can not do anything, it's a play of fate", she replied
"Ok, Aunty please be strong", Mack said
The two of them gave great condolences and leaves from there.
Mathew thought that they have forgotten to ask about any clues and went again, called her and asked
"Aunty, sorry for disturbing you again, did he said anything to you before his death?", Mathew asked
"No, but he always trying to say that from now onwards our sorrows, hurdles and difficulties will be gone in few days. We will become billionaires and can live happily, no one will see us low the next time, we can live happily life long and I'll buy you a new house too", she replied
"Billionaires?", Mack asked
"Yes, I don't know why did he always used to say this, but I rebuked him several times that what we are living is enough for us to live my son, there is no necessary to become Billionaires. But he never listened to my words", she said
The two of them has no words..
"Aunty did he had any habit of writing dairy or anything else?", Mack asked
"No", she replied
With lot of disappointment the two of them leaves from there.
"What next?', Mack asked to Mathew
"I have an another close friend of ours, his name is Steve, we will meet him if he might know anything else", Mathew replied
"Ok lets go and hope for the best", Mack said
The two of them were silently walking bending their heads towards the road.
"Mathew, I have a doubt", Mack asked
"What was that?", Mathew asked
"What if? if we could found any clues from Steve also?", Mack astonished
"Hmmm, me too thinking the same, what to do next and I am very much feared that whom we are going to meet, hearing the mortality news of them, I don't understand what was going on", Mathew replied
"If we did not find anything suspicious there, its better to drop from this investigation. Better you leave from here and live happily in your Mumbai", Mack replied
"No, I can't leave like that. We will try hard to find out", Mathew said
Then this time Mack booked taxi, after 10 minutes Taxi arrived by awaited and the two of them get off into it and says the address to the driver, while he asked for the confirmation....
