It was raining heavily outside. He was driving in a desolated road while humming with the song playing softly on the radio. It was mid of night and was thundering loudly. He was continuously tapping on the steering wheel with the beats of the music. Suddenly, he saw a girl dressed in white colour, standing in the mid of road. He abruptly applied breaks of the car.

"Hey! What the hell are you doing? Are you freak?" He yelled from the window. The girl took gentle towards his car and spoke slowly." I want a lift."

Her round big eyes were blue coloured having an uncommon innocence in them and were pleading for help.

"Please help me!" She pleaded. He couldn't refuse her. He couldn't leave a helpless girl in the mid of night so he promised to help her.

"Thank you so much!" She said thankfully and slid under the cover of car.

"Where do you want to go?" He asked.

"I exactly don't know the name of the place but I can give you the direction." She said.

"Okay." He nodded and said.

"Well my name is Liam, Liam Blake." He said." What's yours?"

"Sara Warren." She said expressionlessly and kept watching outside the window. He kept on driving.

"Well if you don't mind, can I ask you a question?" He said cautionly after a few minutes." What were you doing there alone at this time?" but the girl didn't answer him.

"Miss? " He said but she again didn't answer. She was lost in her own world.

"Can you give me the directions? Ahem... miss?" He asked after a few minutes of silence.

"Turn left." She abruptly said. The boy did what she said.

"Keep moving straight... then turn right...okay, now left.." she kept giving him directions of the unknown place. After fifteen minutes, she finally said that she had reached her destination. The boy looked outside the window. There wasn't any building, any house or any street. In short, there wasn't sign of any living instead, there was a graveyard.

"But why are you..." the boy was saying but he abruptly closed his mouth when he turned his face towards her and saw that the girl wasn't in the car anymore.

Suddenly his eyes caught the sight of some words written on a grave which was situated some meters away from the car.
