' Who is Alah?' Alex spoke not giving them time to think where to begin their words.'
With the expression look that Mr Tan Woo showed on his face, they quickly noticed that his sudden change of mood was not ready to answer any of their question. Alex furious face turned more redder than before. He bit his lower lip hardly, his fists clenching tightly in his palms staring deadly at him.
' This Lady has been hunting us few days ago and she won't let us be. Who is she and what exactly does she want? He asked his anger that he has been holding back riling out of him.'
' If l tell you the truth would you be able to execute her? Instead of answering he asked a question that no one had expected before. They both glared at each other somehow debating with their own minds, then after some seconds, they nodded slowly.'
' Ahh! What if what I'll be telling you is a lie and you fall between my traps, will you still believe me or go against? He asked again, no one stared at him but their heads were staring at each other again berating at his words.
' You think dealing with this thing is that easy? Something which won't give up on what it's looking for?
' But....but wh..o could have awaken it? Stammering Linet asked.'
' One of you? The moment someone opened the covered sheets, that's how it was opened. And again l can't remember any mirror being at your place the moment l sold you the house. Someone must have brought there intentionally.'
' I.....l was.....l was the one who uncovered it, but l swear l didn't touch it even though it was dragging me more closer to it.' Lyn confessed fiddling with her fingers. Her head dropped down from her palms trying to recall everything that had happened few days that passed.'
' Ofcourse it was a must someone to open it. But again, it can't be that strong unless the mirror itself gets contact with the human blood. By touching the mirror, your blood is being able to be drained unknowingly, and from there, it takes control of you. So many bodies have been dragged inside the mirror and till now their bodies have never been found.
' You....you mean if that evil thing could have dragged me inside, my body could have never been found? Even for further investigation? You mean Vicky's body will never be found? Forever? Luca shockingly asked. Mr Tan Woo immediately stood, staring at them. His lips were trembling not believing from what he had just heard.
' Don't tell me, she....she has....she has already got one soul? He quickly asked. With their silence, he rushed his hands through his hair hovering around. ' You need to be more extra careful then. She needs twelve souls to be fully awakened and be strong so that she can raised others.' he dropped the news scaring them more.'
' We... We can't understand you. Elaborate it more clearly please.' Drew asked curiously.'
' Humph. Then l gause you should know something about Alah.' he said having a seat starting his narration immediately.'
' It was first June when she died. Her death was a mystery to everyone and also her body was never found even for almost a year of investigations. Before her death, she was living in City Lashir, then shifted back to this City few days after the death of my wife. Her husband was a very cheering person and respectful which l think there was no difference between him and his wife. In general, they were the people that l respected in this whole city. They were known as 'Sweet couples' the name that everyone used to call them anywhere they met. They never parted until one day his husband travelled for business trip which took almost her youth life. The day he was returning, he came back as a dead person. The sorrow and anger that was seen from her face, it could tell that she had lost something precious. The wedding diamond ring that her husband had given her, was the only thing that she had for his remembrance. Tears were never seen from her face, but one could tell, she was wounding from inside.
Few days later after her husband's burial, she never came out of the house. She used to lock herself all day but at night, a light could be seen from her room. She never even peeked through the windows. Only God knew what she was doing inside the house. Days after days and years after years, one morning her husband's closes friend came to have a visit. He knocked at the door for couple of times and that's when l saw him leaving. We spoke for minutes then we decided to break the house. We searched for her presence but the house looked like a forest. As if no one has ever lived inside it. When we banged inside her bed room, what we saw made us to take few steps backwards. Her body was no where to be found and on the wall, it stood a long mirror and some words were written down. ' I'll BE BACK'. All the things around the house showed that she had killed herself for a purpose. What we didn't knew was why would she be back and for what reasons.
We left without telling anyone and we kept that as a secret till now. But what shocked me most was at night her room would always be lightened by unknown person and at exactly four in the morning, it goes off again. That thing troubled me ever since, and that's when you guys came and bought the house. I wanted to know what was the main reason behind all this things and now l know she's back. Her soul will never rest cause of the sacrifice she did.
