My arms were hurting as I was digging my own husband's grave.

It was a tough work for me. But it wasn't me who killed my lovely alcoholic abusive husband. Someone else did it.... But no one will trust me because my husband had made everyone believe that i am mentally disabled before he died. Now someone is forcing me to hide his dead body.

The one who is forcing me to do this isn't a human , all I know is that he is a different creature the one whom nobody else could see and I think they all are unlucky.

One thing that makes me love that creature is that he killed the one who was making me feel unstable and tortured me for so long but now in this huge mansion I have to live alone or should I say I am not alone anymore.

Someone is always there watching me.. I don't know what is it but I know that this isn't wishing good for me.. I have to survive here alone. I want to go out but this world will blame me for the death of my horrific husband's death.

*Ding**

It's the door bell. It must be Samantha, the one with whom my husband was cheating on me at the same time. This woman lives under the same roof as me and my husband. Where I am served as a prisoner of this huge mansion.

Wishing myself luck, I opened the door. But this time it wasn't her, it was a parcel I took the parcel and closed the door. It wasn't strange for me cause I often get parcels from someone unknown. I opened the parcel box and inside that cringey old box was a letter and a key, usually I don't receive something like that sometimes the one sending me these gives me either a white rose or a black rose. But this time receiving a letter and a key was a bit strange for me. I gathered the courage to open it. while the creature was still ogling me from the corner of the hall and then I read the first and the only sentence written on it.

"You were never alone "

The key was looking so rusty like it's been rotting for so much time. I held it in my hands, there was a small gold chain......
The gold chain wasn't rusty at all. It felt like it was a new one. I wore it as I heard something from behind I quickly took the letter and placed it inside my pocket. Something pulled my hair.

I thought It was a human but it wasn't, my hair was getting stuck with my husband's shirt.

I just turned and started removing my hair from his shirt which was hanging on the hook and his shirt fell on the floor. That shirt was the only belonging of him which is left on me because I've burned everything else....

I picked the shirt and I saw that there was a picture peeking out of it. I took it outside. My jaw dropped open when I saw that creature's picture. I don't know who has clicked it but I need to know that because I have to get rid of it.

I ran outside the mansion straight into the backyard and started to find his grave madly.
Finally when I went to the place where I hid my husband's body, I started to dig that place like a mole. I felt something cold on my shoulder. Shivering, I slowly moved my hand towards my shoulder. It was something cold like ice. Wait it was ice, I can feel this, it is snow! I looked up in the sky, the moon was hanging in the sky. There were some clouds. So many stars shimmering but it wasn't really beautiful.

It was looking dark and deadly.

The floor was slowly being covered by snow. It would be more hard for me to find my husband's body while this snowfall, so i decided to go inside and see if Samantha had came or not
Samantha came inside the house and I really haven't talked to her that much but this time when she reached she came and asked me 'where is brock?' means his husband, I really can't think of an answer I just said he is your husband now you better know where he is currently "L-listen to me, Brock went somewhere outside without letting me know that is why I don't know where he really is.." I hesitated, I couldn't come up with a good answer.

"You better know where he is! What are you waiting for? Go outside and find where he is and I won't let you in until you tell me where Brock" She ordered. "He must be hitting on some girl" She mumbled.

Without saying anything, I took my coat and went outside the mansion, maybe I can find some peace out there.It's my chance to run away from this hell! I will live a life that I want! But this society will send me to mental hospital if they knew that my husband is dead... I can't get away from here.
There was cold weather outside I just put my hand inside the pocket and I realised the letter is no more with me
I just realised that when my hair was stuck with the shirt the letter could fall and at that place Samantha sat there for dinner I was going to step back inside but I couldn't tell her where Brock is and what if she sees the letter which was unread by me too
I just realised that when my hair was stuck with the shirt the letter could fall and at that place too
I remember there was something written below the letter which I haven't read. Anything could happen. If Samantha got to know that I received a parcel with my name on it, she would beat me badly and I already haven't eaten anything from the past two days, because these devils won't just let me enjoy some food. What if she makes me starve till death. Aaaaa my head can't tolerate these things anymore!
My cell phone rang, yes those devils gave me a cell phone in case I'm outside the house or somewhere so that they can track me but I only get this cell phone whenever I'm outside the mansion and they have done some settings in the phone so that whatever activity I'm doing they'll get a notification. I can't even contact the cops..
The screen read Samantha on it and as soon as I picked up the call a voice came

"Hayley darling wh-where are you? You must be hungry so get back home fast.." She said as someone was forcing her to say all this. "Get back home fast bitch Or else it won't be good for you-" She whispered. When suddenly she screamed and said "I'm sorry for behaving badly please leave my hair!" Someone else was also on the other end..And said I would reach

I reached home Soon  I just sat near my gate and started thinking that when was the last time someone called me or even cared if I had up or not but 4 years ago it wasn't the same thinking about those times always make me cry when I am just married and get shifted to this big mansion was gifted by my father to Brock but now in this house I have became prisoner I just stand and swap my tear away and open the door Samantha wa s giving me a big smile I could see it was fake smile Samantha said me to have a dinner with her I was shocked but the reason was not the dinner it was the letter I can't find it I tried to see it everywhere by standing at one place I quickly sit towards the dinning table and I just as quick as I sat I feel something I just looked towards myAnd then a wind came and that letter blown towards the kitchen Samantha was coming from the kitchen and she stepped on that letter she saw that I was so scared I couldn't think what to do she just placed the things and opened the letter and looked towards me with a suspicious eye luckily she didn't have her glasses on her and I took the advantage and dropped her glasses she throw the letter and the letter was now on the creature hand it was worst than I could think......
