"Sir, we need to meet him! PLEASE!"

The security guard, resolute in carrying out his duty, stood his ground. With a firm tone, he responded, "Sorry, but he's busy right now. I can't allow you".

"Sir please.. its really important, try to understand..." the young man pleaded.

"I'm sorry, sir, but I can't," the guard repeated, preparing to shut the gate.

But just as he was about to close it, the guard heard footsteps approaching from behind.

"What's all the noise about, Samar? I could hear you from the garden." The middle-aged man, who had been watering the plants in the garden, noticed the commotion at the gate. He approached the guard with a puzzled expression on his face.

the security guard, turned his attention to the middle-aged man and began to explain, "wo sahab dekhiye na ye dono apse Milne chahte hain, mai keh rha hu aap busy hai abhi mil Nehi sakte."


The two boys stood anxiously outside the gate, their expressions betraying a mix of hope and nervousness. As the gate creaked open, they found themselves face to face with the man they had come to see.

The middle-aged man looked at the two young men standing before him, his curiosity piqued.

The man's eyes widened with recognition as he looked at them. A hint of surprise tinged his voice as he inquired, "Wait, Virat and Rohit, is that you?"

The boys nodded in affirmation, their voices filled with determination. One of them, with a hint of urgency in his tone, added, "Yes, sir. We have something important we need to discuss with you."

"Samar, let them in and make sure they're comfortable. I'll be there in a few minutes.". The man instructed the security guard,

the security guard, nodded in understanding and opened the gate wide, allowing the boys entry into the premises.

The man  sat down across from the boys, a slight smile on his face. He leaned back in his chair and inquired, "So, tell me, why have you come here all of a sudden? I wasn't expecting visitors this early in the morning."

Rohit spoke up, his voice tinged with determination, "We apologize for disturbing you, but we've come here to know the truth behind the Bloodhill Forest."

The man  let out a deep sigh and began to speak. "It's been eight months already. Everything's gone back to normal now. So, why are you both delving into the past again?"

Virat's voice wavered as he interrupted, his tone laced with disbelief and frustration. "Everything is normal?!!!! Do you even know what we are going through!!'
