The next day was also boring like every other day. I woke up to the doorbell. Covering my ears with pillow to stop the sound of doorbell entering my ears. But there was no such luck. At last, I had to get out of the bed and go downstairs to open the door. While I was walking down, I also checked up on Sarah. I finally found out why she wasn’t there to open the door. It turned out that she wasn’t in the house. Sighing, I opened the door. And saw a familiar back outside. The person outside had just turned her back to the door, probably confused. Why hasn’t someone opened the door?That person was none other than Alice. I immediately hugged her figure from behind. Alice stiffened at first, but when she smelled a familiar smile, she smiled softly and touched my hands. I loosened my hold on her. She turned around and hugged me tightly, nestling her head in my chest. I smiled and said, “I missed you, Al. “ She rubbe

 Sarah grabbed her pillow and hugged it while crying. She cried, “Why... Why can’t I be with Brother Mike? “ She then continued crying. Although she had seen Mike and Alice kissing many times, the thing she saw today was too much for her. She couldn’t even hold her emotions for Mike. She loved him since the first time they talked. Sarah still remembered how a small girl who had lost her parents in an accident got cast out in the streets. Luckily, a kind woman took her to the orphanage, from where she was taken by Mike’s father. Although she hated everyone in Mike’s family, because they saw her as a commodity. When she reached Mike’s house, she came to know that the reason they took her in was because Mike didn’t have someone to play with.This caused the young Sarah to hate Mike even more. Because of Mike, she lost her friends in the orphanage and had to come to this place, where everything wa

 The text was enough to clear my worries. I walked out of the room. Her text reminded me of the trip I had planned. Since it was getting dark, I returned to the kitchen, where I and Alice had our dinner. For dinner, we had rice and fish. Alice had made the dinner , so I said nothing about how sticky the rice was, nor how raw the fish was. So when she asked me, “Is the food good? “ I stuffed my mouth with rice and fish, and nodded my head furiously. I couldn’t say that the food she made was sticky and not well cooked.Seeing my nod, Alice looked at me suspiciously and took a bite of the food on her plate. She looked at me and directly spat the food on her plate. She hurriedly drank the water. Frowning at me, she said, “How come you are still eating this sh*t? “I ate another spoonful of rice and said, “This ain’t that bad.. I have eaten worse food, and yours isn’t anywhere near that leve

 My body trembled when I saw Alice on the ground. Her body was almost pale, and the pooled blood spread on the road. Ever her clothes had turned red because of the blood. I rushed towards her, and raising her head a little, I rested it on my lap. Then I repeatedly called her, “Alice.. Alice, get up.. “ I tried everything I could do, but she didn’t wake up. Tears formed in my eyes and dripped down my eyes, streaming down my face. I brought my lips on top of her head and kissed her forehead. My tears fell on Alice’s face.A laughter echoed the road. It belonged to James. Raising my head, I looked at him with fury. Only a single sentence was on my mind. ‘ He killed Alice. ‘Even though he was also the one who killed my and Alice’s parents too; But my mind was almost blank. Only the fact that James had killed Alice remained in my mind.I stood up and rushed towards James. James looked at m

 Some unknown force sucked my soul inside a space crack. It was like I became unconscious when I was getting sucked, because I don’t remember what happened when I got sucked into the space crack. When I was conscious, I laid on the ground. There was sand and I could feel my body for the first time in eleven years as a soul. I touched my body.I was excited, but that’s when the same church bell like sound came from the front. This was the first time I noticed my surroundings. It was like I was in some sort of palace. It was weird and had settings similar to that of a haunted house. The palace was at the centre of a sea, and to reach the centre ; There was a path that passed on top of the water surface.The place where I woke up was at the far end of the path to the palace. I was curious about the existence of this palace, so I walked towards it. Wind howled as I stepped towards the palace; the sea, which was calm at first,
