It was difficult for me to recognize my departure from the house. I knew that it was dangerous, and that I could not return, but I need to find my father and find out why he left. Thoughts, made their way into my head that he left me, but I did not give it to ignore it.
Leaving the forest, I found the road and went along it. It became colder with every step. Having gone a little more, it began to rain and it became completely cold and damp. The hood was put on me, but he saved me little. I already started to get tired and saw a metal fence in the distance, a little more seemed mansion behind the fence.
I hurried there, suddenly someone is there and will allow me to stay with them until the rain passes. Opening the fence, I shook the yard. In many places there were graves and statues. There was a fountain in the cether of the court, but it did not work. The place seemed abandoned and frightening.
Approaching the main move, I knocked. There was no answer. I tried to knock again, but there was still no answer. Turning the door handle I realized that it was locked. Deciding a little more in the district, I went to the left side. There I found another door and pulling the door hand, it opened. I took out a flashlight from my bag and turned it on.
Walking under the light of the phonor, I noticed traces of blood on the floor. From this, the cold ran through the back. Walking through the bloody traces I noticed that they diverged in different directions. I decided to go to the right room where the bloody traces came out. I took the door handle and opened it.
What I saw there hit me in shock.
On the floor lay a corpse in a pool of blood. The corpse was dressed in a pink dress with red shoes. He was very similar to my mother. I brought my hand to my mouth unable to say at least a word. Is it really mom? Did the mother really kill? But how? I saw her alive and whole this morning!
- (Perhaps this is just an illusion, but it looks so realistic ... I think I will not think about it now).
Having decided that enough this sight, I closed the door and headed where the bloody traces saw. They led to the basement. Why hide in the basement? Getting lost in my thoughts, I did not notice how I crashed into someone.
- Oh ... Sorry sir, I got lost in my thoughts and did not see where I was going.
- Oh, there's nothing just to look where you go the next time.
I looked up at my voice and saw a man with gray soulless eyes and not big glasses on his nose. He proto my hand and helped to get up now I could see him better. He had blond hair with a not large tint of dark. He was dressed in a white shirt, a red tie, a light brown jacket, dark pants and shoes. Something was alarming in his gaze, but I could not understand what it was.
- My name is Riba. I am an investigation here. Who are you and what are you doing here?
- My name is Mira and I am here to find my father.
From the words about my father, he hesitated a little. Maybe he knows something? I wanted to speak, but a strong knock on the door behind Riba threw me. It got me and frightened me simultaneously.
- Run away from here, who knows what is behind this door and don't worry about me, I will be fine. Run!
Looking at Riba for the last time I ran away from that place. I hid behind the nearest door, turned off the flashlight and began to listen. I heard the blows of something tometic against the flesh and the scream that I could not make out. Then silence. For some time, muttering and steps were heard, but after everything calmed down.
After waiting a little more, I decided to turn on the flashlight and leave the room in which I was hiding. I knew that Riba was dead so I continued my way. I felt sorry for him, although we only met. I hope he will rest in peace in his soul. My further thoughts interrupted their steps. I quickly hid in the box and began to listen. The steps were not fast and lame as if a man who was walking these steps was wounded. Who could it be? It doesn't matter that he has already left.
I got out of the box and went on. After a little more, I met another corpse hidden in the shade and a metal door. With an apology, looking at the corpse, I opened the metal door and went on. This basement is quite large and very long. When will he finish?
I had to go for a long time. I still could not throw Riba's eyes out of my head. He probably knew something about my father, but did not have time to say. What a pity I would have had a clue at least some. Well, now it doesn't matter.
I felt almost at the exit. Having added a step, I opened the door and got out into the street. Ah ... fresh air and cold rain. This is all I need to feel freedom ... But something was wrong. Why did I get out without one of the traps? My thoughts interrupted the steps or someone's run. I realized that they were running here from behind the door. I ran away from the door and wrapped somewhere along the road. Hiding in the bushes, I turned off the flashlight and began to wait and listen.
It was quiet. Only the crows croaked and flew over something ... or better to say over someone. Looking closely, I realized that it was a corpse, but something in this corpse seemed familiar to me. I did not develop my thought and listened to the steps. I looked out from behind the bushes and saw what I should not.
There was Riba whole and unharmed, and next to him was a man of low height with a red hat, a jumpsuit with gold buttons, white gloves and brown boots with a gold sole. Looking closely at my face, I saw a big nose, magnificent wavy mustache and eyes blue like the sky. Then, like a lightning, it hit me.
This was...
...dad?
