-Aisha just tell me what happened?

-where are we?

 - We will stay in this hotel room until things get better. what's going on?

-Umm, do you have  my phone?

-Aisha stop it.

-Stop what?'' She was just turning around in the room, looking everywhere to avoid eye contact with him.

-Stop changing the subject. You have to tell me the truth. Who is that ''ghost''? ''He just grabbed her hardly, terrified but at the same time angry.

-''No, No... please , you're hurting me'' and suddenly she started crying and shaking. She just can't handle it anymore, this is just too much for her.

-  sorry, I'm sorry...Aisha? I will never ever hurt you!

-James just leave me alone, I don't want to see you...please.'' then a warm tear fell on her red cheeks.

He really wanted to stay next to her but she needed some rest and anyways, at the end of the day she will tell him everything by herself when she's ready, so he'll just give her some space and freedom. James went to the coffee shop next the hotel then half an hour later he decided to just have a walk, then he answered some job phone calls to let the time pass, but he couldn't handle it anymore so he decided to return to her room and face her with her truth .

After returning to her bedroom he couldn't find her. He searched in the room, lobby, garden, restaurant....everywhere ,but he could not find her, he just turned crazy, he started shouting ''Aisha...Aisha...I'm sorry, come back'' he couldn't believe that she just left and the last time they were together she was crying because of him...then he found a piece of paper written by her and apparently written for herself! 

'' Why? Why is my past chasing me? Even after running away ,Omar's still hunting my nightmares? My ghost didn't have enough torturing me? I thought that I payed off my debt, my family debt that I wasn't involved in it but I suddenly found myself paying it with every inch of my life, my body, my dreams, my hopes, my beliefs, my future...I just lost everything, I just can't I can't anymore. Even when I found the love of my life and I finished writing my story and was ready to publish it, life couldn't see me happy. Why?. I did not die but yet I lost life's breathe.''

James had goosebumps after reading it, he was getting emotional and was in a complete shock. Even thought he already knew that she was hiding a big secret and a huge pain he was still shocked but he really have to find out her full true story so he had to find her immediately.

Suddenly the bedroom phone rang and his heart just stopped. ''Mr. James you have a phone call from a person called Mr. Omar'' he just stood there without moving for seconds and just said: ''Okay '' How? What? Isn't that Omar the man from Aisha's letter? The ghost? how did he find us? Aisha is in great danger I need to find her then suddenly a deep, flat, croaky started talking:

''-Hey boss, it's Omar.

-Who are you?

- Our beautiful Alannah, oops I mean Aisha is with me so no need to search for her or calling the cops, she's alive...for now'' Then after his wicked laugh he heard Aisha's deep voice shouting'' Leave me alone...James, Jamesss help .... please Omar let me talk to him, I beg you'' she was crying her heart out and screaming painfully with fear.

James lost his mind and started walking around like crazy '' Aisha...Aisha!!!.... listen to me you freak, I don't know who are you but if you try to touch her or to even hurt her in a single word I will hunt your nightmares for the rest of your life...''

'' -Chill boss, relax, after all I'm taking back my own wife, and I'm super sorry that you lost a very, very talented employee'' His sarcastic voice was irritating and so annoying.

-What?!

-Anyways this is none of your business. ''  Then he just closed the phone leaving James loosing his mind slowly.

My own wife? what dos he mean? He's probably just saying that to annoy me. I need to find Aisha right now, I can't keep her with this crazy monster. So he just headed to his car and started driving without knowing the destination and started making some phone calls. But where to start?
