Ismah: slams the car door “We’re here. No turning back now.”

Sakshi: staring at the mansion “Are you serious? This place looks cursed.”

Tanishka: trembling “I don’t want to be here. It feels... wrong.”

Shreya: shrugs “You’re all being dramatic. Ghosts aren’t real.”

Ismah: “Let’s go find out. We didn’t drive all this way for nothing.”

They step inside. The door creaks shut behind them.

Sakshi: nervously “Why is it so cold in here? This place is giving me the creeps.”

Pari: softly “It feels like... like something’s watching us.”

Tanishka: whispers “What if we’re not alone?”

A loud bang echoes from upstairs. Everyone freezes.

Shreya: “That was definitely not just the house settling. What the hell was that?”

Ismah: grinning “Ghosts don’t scare me. Let’s go check it out.”

They slowly make their way upstairs. The floorboards creak under their weight. Another bang. Then... whispers.

Tanishka: panicking “I don’t want to do this anymore. I want to go home!”

Shafiya: hushed “I... I think it’s too late for that.”

The door at the end of the hallway swings open on its own. The air grows colder.

Ismah: without hesitation “We came here for answers. We’re finishing this.”

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhY66BjCfCt

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVtGsROMIN

They enter the dark room. Suddenly, the door slams shut behind them. The whispers grow louder.

Sakshi: “What the hell is happening? We can’t get out!”

Out of the shadows, a figure materializes. Its eyes glow as it steps forward.

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfiE0C9qg9

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0JOBjq4Rp

Voice: “You shouldn’t have come.”

The lights flicker. The group gasps as the pressure in the room thickens.

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDeHMUyroo

Shreya: whispering “We’re not leaving. Are we?”

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvtd5s1HyW

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXubVPojT2q

The figure suddenly stops. It speaks in a calmer tone.

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfrtCebP56

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2wCuuSxZu

Voice: “Wait. You are not like the others. You see the truth, don’t you?”

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFlqWQHiC4

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuqDpcU34k

Ismah: eyes narrowing “What truth? Why are we here?”

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuo2GSXQnV

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiQpIJllCB

The figure pauses, then slowly steps closer.

Voice: “This house... it calls those who are brave enough to seek. You are the ones who can break the curse. The spirits here... they can’t move on until you do.”

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ84nkgeLgF

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa2ZxL17SJ

The air shifts, the darkness receding slightly. The house feels... less oppressive.

Shafiya: “So, we’re supposed to help? How?”

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdhWlAZzka

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghgY0N3qT0

Voice: smiling faintly “By letting go. By breaking the chains of fear. You must choose—leave now, or help free us from this prison.”

Ismah looks around at her friends. One by one, they nod, even Tanishka.

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8JoVEqLqa

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2u5KBIxtV

Ismah: stepping forward “We’re in this together. Let’s end it.”

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZsk019YDw

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqXG5MDQUU

The figure slowly raises its hand, and the door to the room creaks open on its own. The oppressive feeling lifts completely, leaving a quiet peace in its wake. The group steps outside, the house behind them now still, quiet, and no longer threatening.

Tanishka: exhaling “Did we... did we really do it?”

Sakshi: grinning “We did. And I’m never doing anything like this again.”

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiSjtzJQvf

277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVloWASNck

As they walk away from the mansion, the wind stirs behind them, but this time, it’s gentle. The curse has been broken. They can finally leave in peace.
