The next morning when Sarah and Aditya woke up, the sun was shining through the window and both of them thought this was the best time to get away from this haunted mansion.
Both of them got up and went straight for the door. As they were about to reach the door, Aditya remembered about Sarah’s research in the study. He said,”Wait! We have to get your research!”
Chapterwise story listing -> The Superstition
They went back to the study. The research was on the study table in Sarah’s laptop. She had left her laptop on standby, so she faced the laptop’s screen and swiped on the touch pad to bring the laptop back to life. She went for the shutdown button when something weird happened. All her files on the desktop started jumping. They started forming letters. All they could read from the gibberish of her laptop’s screen were three words…
YOU ARE MINE…
These words spooked Aditya but still he managed to speak up, “These are the exact same words I saw on the mirror! Lets just leave it here, I’ll help you create a new report. Let’s just get the hell out of here.”
“Okay, I agree. Lets get the hell out of here.”
They started moving towards the door and suddenly the study door slammed itself shut. They were trapped inside. Then they heard giggles coming from the study table. A kid’s voice said, “Daddy… please don’t do this to me. I promised not to tell mommy the last time. I was a good girl. Please leave me daddy.”
A man’s voice replied, “This is good for you my sweet darling. Now whose your daddy? Come play with your toy baby.”
A figure of a girl appeared in front of Aditya and said,” I hate you daddy!!!! I will kill you someday!!”
The figure looked like a young abused indian girl. She had bruises on her face and neck and wrists. It seemed like she was tied up and beaten by a leash. She was wearing torn up clothes which showed signs of a struggle. She was definitely abused by someone. Then she started screaming. She had weird black teeth which were as long as an inch and as pointy as canines. Her eyes turned red and she reached for Aditya. She picked him up and tossed him across the room. Sarah went towards Aditya to help him up but the ghost of the little girl stopped her saying, “NO MOMMY!!! DADDY WAS BAD!!! HE HAS TO DIE!!!”
Sarah couldn’t move as the little girl moved towards Aditya. She started slapping Aditya one side after another till his face started to bleed. Aditya was almost fainted when Sarah said, “Little girl! He is not your daddy! His name is Aditya. Your daddy has been dead for about 50 years! You are free sweet child.”
The girl stopped slapping Aditya and Sarah could move again. She vanished into thin air and Sarah ran towards Aditya checking on him and pulling him up so that he could stand. Aditya let out a long sigh and said, “We should get the hell out of here sweetie. And right away!!!”
Sarah couldn’t agree more. She helped Aditya towards the door which was now open. They reached the main door of the mansion and Sarah tried to open the door. It couldn’t open!
Stay tuned for more crisp…
