Sound of the birds crying.
Kanita opened her eyes and saw the blur image of the ceiling. She took a few breaths before she looked to her right and saw the window. Then She got up and sat. The view became crystal clear, she knew she was in her bedroom.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7QMd3LMHh
“What's going on?”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSaoiAvo8d
She touched her head, then she was reminded of last night. Ghost! She met a ghost! No, they were two ghosts!100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmFpKe6WTG
“You got up,” the voice of Aunt Dari appeared with the food trolley.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqEbHnEivm
“This house is haunted,” Kanita jumped to the floor and said. 100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzvYu7DZBq
But Aunt Dari seemed to ignore her words. She pushed the trolley near the bed and stated, “Here is your breakfast.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcD7Bsq3V7R
“I don’t eat. I’m going to leave,” Kanita said. Then she opened the cabinet and collected her dress to put them into her suitcase.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJcbSRSTYt
“Payment is no return,” Aunt Dari exclaimed.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZX6UFvajB
“You take it.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJCrTn0IUI
“You have to fulfill your staying-days.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaW129ah9Me
“I don't care. I don't stay. I leave today. Now!” Kanita yelled. 100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknqQpiXMPl
After collecting all stuffs into the suitcase, she carried it out of the room and walked down stairs.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sF7yPUYer
In the yard, Mok was standing next to the car. He was surprised to see Kania holding a suitcase coming to him.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZi6XGD8PK
“Take me to the airport."100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5XwosG2iR
“Why?” Mok said with eyes open.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FY3V8Q48Y
“I want to leave. I want to go back to the US."100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBQFfr3Mzu
Hearing it Mok hesitated. He looked at Aunt Dari who was standing at the front door. When Aunt Dari gave a signal to him to follow the needs of the female’s guest, he opened the car's door then went to sit in the driving seat.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEIkcxVzoh
100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Gu9aeu5Y9
On the same way, Mok drove the car silently. Next to him Kanita was sitting, she was mute either. Her eyes looked through the window, her body was normal but her face showed that she was still scared. 100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYu3DNoGDzz
Later on, she noticed something not right. 100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O6Dv0ZzMz
“I think we passed here at the last moment,” she said.
Mok nodded, “Correct.”
“Are we lost?”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgEPoEcSNe
“No.”
“Then why?”
“We cannot go if they don't permit it.”
“Who are they?” Kanita shrank her eyes.
“They. They don't want you to leave so you cannot leave.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrecfq3CGx
Kanita shook her head, “No, I want to leave. I must leave,” she said. “Stop the car.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXl4LtLIpER
Mok reduced the speed till the wheels stopped moving. “Miss, you should go back. We cannot defeat them,” he told.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6kUkaGmoc
It was scary to hear that, but it made Kanita angry as well. She knew who he referred to; however, she thought she could not let them win. She left the car and took her suitcase out of the car and walked off. Because the road mixed with land and stone, it was difficult but she did not want to lose, so she tried to drag her luggage.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6K2z8v6lq
Along the road, there were a lot of big trees. They were staying still but at once there was a wind coming and touching the leaves of the tree - creating a sound which was like someone was laughing.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKrIOPsqH1
Kanita heard it. Her spines started to have a chill, and without knowing why a drop of tear down on her face. Her heart was beating fast. Though she tried to be strong. She used her back of hand to clean the tear. At this time, she was scared and she was angry as well. How could she end up like this? In a crazy creepy place, she should not choose to come here, she thought.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHkdLHBB92
Because she tried to pull the suitcase, her hands became red and hurt. She paused her feet to take a rest and she took a look back. Surprise! She saw Mok was standing next to the car about five meters away from her.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHSAKROgKX
“You followed me?” She said.
Mok shook his head, “No, I didn’t.” 100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgKUyvnz3Y
“What do you mean?”
“You might think you were going far, but in fact, you were not.”
Kanita narrowed her eyes, her face became pale.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0qM3a72Zu
“I recommend you to go back. You cannot leave if they don't allow you to leave. I don't want to scare you but I want to tell you the truth that they were pulling your suitcase while you moved, that's why you did not go far.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbh01eqrSiW
Kanita opened her eyes when she heard it. Her head was in a chill and her furs stood up. She thought this driver wanted to scare her, but as she looked through his eyes - it showed he said honestly.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkQeNP4bZ2
At that time, the wind blew and it was strong. Again, the laughing sound came through the wind.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAEMcLa30N
As it happened like this, Kanita had to admit she was defeated. She allowed Mok to carry her suitcase back to the car, she allowed herself to walk into the car, and she allowed Mok to drive her back to that scary house.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOxjnbTeCm
What a loser! 100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwieMalXzyy
But how could she beat the inhuman?100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6WXNIQhxb
Along the way, Kanita sat in the seat silently. She was worried as she thought about what she would meet during her stay in that house, especially alone at night. 100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnSNELmqoa
“I know you are scared,” Mok said.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr0V6Ktnsg
Kanita wagged her head hearing it.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng35UFa1C3
“You should go to Aunt Dari. Listen to her and follow her then you can survive.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTXh9zB5Cm
It was not what she wanted, but after thinking for a moment, Kanita nodded.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrANxXTSVE
100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtUIbIW5m8
At the front door, Aunt Dari was standing there. It looked like she knew that they would come back.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapdGM7riZJ
Kanita got out of the car and walked slowly with her head low towards the front door. As she got near, Aunt Dari stated, “Breakfast is cool. Let me reheat for you."100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FsToe29qR
With silence, the young lady went to wait in her room.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOUXV6Mp1b
When Aunt Dari brought the food, Kanita ate quietly. Unlike yesterday, Aunt Dari stood in the room, but she didn’t speak anything.
“I’m scared,” Kanita said and at that moment a tear dropped over her cheek. She wiped it and sobbed.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlTtRb0d5j
“I told you not to go out after 6pm but you did not listen to me,” Aunt Dari said.
“I did not know. You did not tell me clearly.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJfyVDl4PZ
“I cannot tell you everything. But I already reminded you about the rule of this house.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJTpaoy9v5
“What should I do now?' Kanita looked at Aunt Dari with tears in her eyes.
The old lady took a breath. She was silent for a few seconds before she stated, “You cannot escape because you broke the first point of the rule. You have to be strong and stay here until the end of the five days.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeiv5yfXuI
“How can I?”
“There is only one way.”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmOgujchj8
“What is it?”100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsy9yHXfR7
“Two words - don’t care.”
Kanita watched the elderly speaker as she needed more information than this.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV2sml2Pqn
“You will meet many things. However, you must not care; everything needs to be invisible to you.”
Perhaps there was no choice; hence, Kanita nodded and took a deep breath before she continued eating.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4F8o4zOef
After the breakfast was finished, Aunt Dari took the trolley out and Kanita stayed in the room alone - for the whole day.
In the evening, when Aunt Dari and Mok were about to go, Kanita got out of her room to stand at the front door watching them leave.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp8nUOSn8m
Before getting into the car, Aunt Dari rotated to look at the young female guest for a bit. Through her eyes, seemed to be telling the girl, “Be strong.” And Kanita heard the message.100Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPx4R6NIYd
