He doesn't have a mirror.

For a change today, I found another thing about vampires but on YouTube. You know when you search about something on one platform and find a recommendation about it on another platform. Yeah. That happened.

I got recommended a video. Titled:

Reasons why you should become a vampire.

Now listen to me first. I am not interested in becoming a vampire but for the mission I am on. And to gain knowledge about things I don't know. I watched the 45 minute video. Twice.

By watching the video I found that vampires have no reflection in a mirror. They cannot form an image in the mirror so they simply don't have one. Which means if my neighbour doesn't have a mirror in his house he is a vampire. And even if he has one all I have to do is to make him stand in front of the mirror.

But I doubt that he doesn't have one because look at him. Perfectly gelled hair. Properly worn clothes. Smile that can heal you. Eyes that shine like diamonds. Face that makes you want to…… sorry I got side tracked.

What I am saying is that he must have at least one mirror in his house. All I have to do is search. With a new mission in my mind I walked towards his house.

I was in front of his house when I realised that I don't have a reason to visit him. I mean I have one but I can't use it. I can't go and say that I suspect that you are a vampire so let me search your house.

I was about to walk back to my house when Pranit called my name.

" Hey Nachiket, what are you doing here? " Before I could think of an answer he said

" Watching me do gardening. " He laughed.

" You wish. " I replied back and walked into his lawn to see him covered in soil.

" What are you doing?" I asked as I squirt beside him.

" Digging a hole. " He said, doing so.

" For? A dead body?!! " I asked in shock.

" What? No. I'm digging a hole for this plant. " He said, pulling out a pot of plant, out of nowhere.

" Oh. "

" Why would I have a body? What do you think of me? " He asked with an amused smile.

' A vampire '

" A good neighbors. Who can never hurt anyone, Specially his dear neighbor. " I replied.

He nodded his head and went back to his work. This is the right time. When he's busy out here I can search his house.

All I need is an excuse to go in. I secretly rubbed some soil on my hands.

" Oh, my hands are dirty. " I stated innocently.

" How? You didn't do anything. " He asked confused.

But before he could stop me I had already walked a few steps.

" I'll go wash my hands. " I said and went inside.

Although I am inside the house I still have to move fast. After an hour I found nothing.

Bathroom - No mirror found
Kitchen - No mirror found
Living room - No mirror found
Gym room - No mirror found

I have searched everywhere but there is no mirror in the entire house. Wait. I didn't searched his bedroom. Now that I think about it, I've never seen his bedroom. Maybe he has a coffin for a bed. I have to see.

I excitedly walked up the stairs and saw two doors on both sides. I have to choose a door quickly. I fish out a coin from my pocket and choose the door at right as head and door at left as tail.

I flipped the coin and it shows tail. I put my hand on the handle of the door and took a deep breath. When I twist the handle to open the door it didn't opened. Not because it was locked but because someone stopped it.

" What are you doing? " My neighbour asked dangerously close to my ears. With him standing behind me, I suddenly felt small like a child. His voice does things to me because I replied

" Looking for a mirror. "

" Why? " He asked.

Yes. Why.  Why the fuck did I said that? Do I want to die?? Nachiket get back to your senses.

" So that I can see if I look okay. " I turned back and said with a smile

" You always look good. " He said ruffling my hair and stepped back.

" Thanks. I have things to do so I'll be going. Have fun gardening. " I said with a smile and coolly walked away like my legs aren't shaking.

I walked towards my house, still scared by what happened a few minutes ago, all while thinking just one thing.

Where is my Oscar for this great performance?

In conclusion - My neighbor is a vampire.

But seriously, where is my Oscar?

---------------- END OF CHAPTER 6 -----------------

Yes seriously, where is Nachiket's Oscar?

Pranit is seriously acting a little suspicious. I wonder if he's a vampire. What do you think?
