The Cursed Girl

Chapter 36

Gwen

I was done with my sketch and was even satisfied with it. It had been quite some time since I have sketched or painted something. She is the same woman who had come in my dream and now I know how does she look. Sometime I regret that I shouldn't have come in this world or else she must be alive and must be having a good life but she had to lose her life because of me and I hope that I could make my life better and I guess she also will like that and now I will focus on that. 

I put the pencil back and put the canvas inside and sat on my study table and found the pendent and I remembered that I haven't still find out the person who had killed Leandro and if I get this person than I won't leave her. But as much as I remember than Mr. Jefferson had told me that it could be possible that my father had bought that for me but he wasn't sure enough and now I want surety in this. I picked up my phone and called Mr. Jefferson and he picked it up in few rings.

"Hello uncle."

"Who are you and why are you calling my dad uncle?" This voice was really familiar and I get to know that this is the person whom I have talked before going to Mr. Jefferson's house.

"Who is on the phone Dianna?" I heard Mr. Jefferson's voice.

"I don't know dad but she had just called you uncle."

"Oh! She must be Gwen. I will tell you about her later firstly let me see why she had called me." After few seconds. "Hello Gwen, why you have called me?"

"Uncle I need you little favor." 

"What do you need?"

"Can you tell me the information about those person who had bought that pendent and even engraved them?"

"It maybe be a hard task for me to find as it about 30 or 20 years old thing but let me see if I could find."

"Thanks a lot."

"I am glad that I could help you in some way." He said and I smiled.

"I will talk to you a bit later and do tell me when you are going to meet me I will surely come and meet and you even want to give you something." I smiled and looked at the canvas on which I have drawn my mother wearing her wedding dress.

"As long as I find the papers, I will inform you and we can meet up."

"Okay." I nodded and than hung up and put the phone on the table and I looked back and found my gate was opened ajar. I was confused because I have closed the door and whenever I enter in my room than I close it, I never really opened it but the door is open.

"Hey who are you?" I heard Justin's voice and I come out as well and I had smell the same fragrance and I think she is the person who had also heard that day also and I looked at Justin who had come in my way only.

"Why were you shouting and at whom?" I asked him and he stand near me.

"there was someone who was invading in your personal space and by the fragrance here person must be a girl." He had saw that person.

"Have you seen her face?"

"Nah, she was wearing a dark clothes which matched with the alley and I identified her with the movement." I nodded.

"Well I am going down to find if someone had saw a person." But all of the sudden I heard a thud of the shutting of the door and I looked at Justin and he was sharing the same confuse look as mine. We both ran downstairs and found uncle who was also standing over there with confuse look.

"Have you also heard that thud sound of closing of the door?" I asked him and he nodded.

"That sound had come from storage room." I was confused, why that person must have choose to hide in storage room.

"Maybe we should see if she is over there or not." I heard Justin voice and I nodded and I started to went towards the storage room and my heart beat was also increasing with the passing of the time and we soon reached there and then I slowly opened the door and entered and I was met by the dust that was present over there. I started to cough all of the sudden. I opened the light but I found no one. Where she could have gone? "Let me search first." Justin said and went to search without me saying anything and I was looking here and there to see if I could find something but I found none. But something had caught my eyes and that was a diamond shaped earring. I picked it up. I don't wear as I have allergy but aunt also doesn't wear something fancy like this and now only one person is present in our house and that is Avelyn. "There is no one over here." Justin  came in front of me and saw the earring in my hand.

"Leave that earring." His voice was kind of raised and I was frighten a bit and I left it. I looked at the ground and than at him with confused look and he quickly took my hand and I found some red spots on my hand and I realized that I had picked it up even though I knew that I am having the allergy.

"Why do you have to take that earring in  your hand, have you forget about your allergy?" I looked at him surprised. He even knows that I am having an allergy towards jewelry. 

"How-How do you know?" I asked him and then he left my hand and looked at me and lean a bit on me.

"I have my own way to find and I also know so many things about you." 

"But why there was a need for you to find so much information about me?" I asked him and he smiled.

"Maybe when time will be right than I will tell you." I was confused and he picked up the earring. "Do you know to whom this could belong?"

"I don't really know but maybe I have a suspect on Avelyn." He nodded and hold me wrist and started to drag me out and I heard the throat being cleaned  and I looked at the direction and found Tsetan who was glaring at us and I quickly come out of Justin's grip and he looked at me confused and then he looked at Tsetan and again grabbed my hand. I don't really know but why I have come out of his grip even though this didn't bother me but knowing that Tsetan is not feeling good about this I come out of his grip. Am I really falling for him? No I shouldn't been falling for him because he doesn't really like me.
