It was 12:00 past late at night . Mr.Han a tall ,well maintained man was crossing the bridge making his way through the main road . It seemed like he was in a great hurry to reach his destination . After walking for half an hour he had to make his way through a DARK TUNNEL . It was the longest tunnel built with no lights in it and being mid night there were no sign of vehicles .
Suddenly an average height man wearing a long coat appeared in front of Mr.Han . "Can I help you with anything?" asked the average height man . "Yah!! actually I was about to make my way through this dark tunnel " replied Mr.Han ."Seems like you are afraid of darkness?" questioned the average height man . " Not much but I always needed someone to accompany me in this kind of situations " replied Mr.Han . They both started making their way through the tunnel when the average height man spotted the flash light on Mr. Han and said "There's nothing to be afraid of ? I'm there with you afterall " . Mr.Han smiles a bit in relief . " Let me introduce myself , I'm Mr. Han Christian and you ?" asked Mr . Han . The other man changed the direction of the flashlight on their path way . " Well I'm Andrew , Andrew johanson" replied Mr . Andrew . "Wow ! your name reflects your kind behaviour " said Mr . Han . Mr. Andrew smirked a bit at his praise . "But I'm not that kind afterall " said Mr . Andrew . Mr . Han laughed at his feedback . Mr . Andrew being serious looks at Mr. Han curiously and asked " What are you laughing for ?" . "Nothing, well you too seem so busy to reach your destination " replied Mr.Han . "I'm indeed in a hurry afterall my wife is 5 months pregnant , it's already late at midnight and she is afraid of darkness " explained Mr. Andrew ."Oh congratulations! for your upcoming future family " exclaimed Mr.Han . "Thank you so much friend, well what about you ? I mean are you married?" asked Mr.Andrew excitedly . Mr.Han gives a deep sigh to Mr. Andrews sudden question . Building a confidence in him, he began to encourage himself . " Yes! I'm married indeed . My wife was also pregnant too . We both were so happy to welcome our new member to the family but in an accident she had miscarriage, she was bleeding and bleeding ; at last we both lost our first child the only hope . I was totally depressed and couldn't focus on my work while my wife stopped eating and suffered through tuberculosis and dehydration . At last I too lost her" explained Mr. Han . Mr.Andrew being paused for a minute felt sympathy and pity for the poor man losing his family . "I really feel sorry about it Mr.Han . You too can start a new beginning" suggested Mr . Andrew . "I'm too tired of starting a new life with someone, I just want to be alone fighting with my existence " explained Mr .Han . "I think you should go home fast , your wife needs you by her side " suggested Mr.Han . "Yah! you too should go home fast , infact this place is not good afterall psychopath's are all around " said Mr.Andrew . Mr .Han being nervous takes out a handkerchief from his pocket and starts wiping his prespires forming on his forehead . "Stop!!! making me scared Andrew " exclaimed Mr. Han putting back the handkerchief into his pocket . "No!I'm not but I have heared a lit of weird stories about this DARK TUNNEL " said Mr.Andrew . "What did you actually hear ?" questioned Mr .Han . Mr.Andrew smiled a bit at Mr.Han and continued his story "There's a killer in this dark tunnel who likes darkness and before murdering he/she starts to whistle in a sweet terrific tune enough to chill down one's spine , so maximum people stopped making their way through this tunnel " explained Mr.Andrew." Oh god!!! That's so scary enough to give goosebumps in a seconds " said Mr.Han . Mr. Andrew turns towards Mr .Han and asked "But the most strange thing is that why would a killer like a darkness ?" . Mr . Han replied "Because he is not habituated with torch , match or flash lights " . Mr.Andrew becomes a bit frightened and asked " How do you know ?" . Mr.Han starts laughing loudly ,goes in front of Mr.Andrew and touches his left shoulder with his right hand making him stop in his track and replied "Cause I'm the old customer here , playing with darkness ......"
And a horrible scream was heared through the DARK TUNNEL ever to combine......."I'm not that scared of darkness..."
