After having a good sleep for about 5 hours I woke up by 9pm to have my dinner and leave to my house where ray died . I quickly ate my food and stepped out of the house  when I suddenly remembered that I had left the phone in my room itself. I ran to my room to get my phone and as soon as I unlocked it , I was surprised to see 20 missed calls from Elsa . Had she found the murderer ? - thought I and called her back but she did not pick up my call . I wondered what she wanted to tell me as she had called me so many times . I decided to meet her directly at home tonight and ask her . I left for my house which was in a distance of 10 minutes from my dad's house .

In exactly 10 minutes I reached my house but I could not see any vehicle around me . Maybe Elsa has not yet arrived - thought I and decided to wait for her in the house . I sent her a message saying that I have arrived . I switched on the lights of the house . Each and every corner of that house reminded me of ray , especially that bed in which I had seen her lie  for the last time . I went through the entire house refreshing my memories with ray . They were the most beautiful days in my life , the dining area where we used to have food together , our wardrobe for which we always used to fight , our bed , the hall where we used to fight with each other to watch TV and so on.

It was already 11pm now and there were no traces of elsa yet . Was she even coming or has she cancelled the plan ? - thought I , she hadn't intimated me of anything so I decided to wait till 12am and leave if she does not come after 12 . By the time she could come I decided to keep the ouija board ready . It was kept in the store room and the key of the room was downstairs . I quickly moved downstairs to get the key but as I reached downstairs I saw something unusual . The door was open but as far as I remembered I had closed the door while entering . I slowly moved toward the door to see if there was someone outside . As I moved near to the door , all of a sudden the door lashed on my face . I got scared and fell on the floor screaming for help . I took sometime to overcome th fear and then I slowly got up to check if the door was still open but it was not . I tried to open it by pulling it hard but it was of no use . I had no other option but to stay here tonight.

I took the key of the store house and slowly climbed upstairs towards the store room . I felt as if someone was following me , I kept looking back several times to see if there was someone but I dint find any . As I neared the store room all of a sudden all the lights of the house got switched off . I got afraid and began to scream even more louder .

Ray is that you ? - shouted I looking around .

Ray are you here ? Ray I really miss you and I will see to it that I punish that person who murdered you - shouted I .

I switched on the torch and walked towards the store room one step at a time . But in a while , the torch stopped working, It was out of battery so I had no other option but to search for a candle . I carefully walked down the stairs to the kitchen and with the dim light of my phone began to search for the candle .

There it is - I said to myself as I found the candle and I immediately lighted it with the help of the stove . I turned off the stove after burning the candle and then walked up to the store room . I held the candle near my face so that I could get a clear view of where I was going . Again I felt as if someone was following me as I heard the sound of their footsteps .

Who is it ? - asked I holding the candle near my face . I heard the sound of cry , someone was crying loud and the sound came from upstairs . I followed the sound of the cry and I stopped before a room ,

I can hear the cry more louder here - thought I and brought the candle to the top of the room's door to read the name of the door .

STORE ROOM  - read I , it was written in bold letters . I took the key out of my pocket to open the door . I Peirced the key in the hole and slowly opened the door . I took the candle and held it near my face as it was very dark .

I was still hearing the cry of someone from a corner of the room .

Is there anyone in that corner ?- asked I stepping towards the place from where the sound came , I peeped in the corner to see who it was but found no one over there . Silence swept over the entire house as only I was there in this entire house . I quickly opened the box in which the ouija board was kept , took it and turned to move out of the room when the same scary face that attacked me yesterday came before me today . I screamed in fear and sat in the corner of the room . The woman jumped and sat in front of me with all her hair covering her face . I was already trembling in fear as I had never faced a spirit this close to me .

Ray is that you - asked I to the woman trying to remove the hair from her face .

She screamed loud as I neared her hair , her entire hair moved out of her face thus revealing her identity .

Elsa - shouted I .

What has happened to you - asked I

Hahah Elsa died 1 hour ago , I am ray - said the spirit .

What that is not possible , I spoke to her in the afternoon , she was alright - said I to it.

Have a look yourself then - said ray's spirit and turned towards one end of the room and as soon as she looked at the corner , elsa's dead body came out sliding from the corner .

Aaaaaaahhhhhh ...... - screamed I in fear.

Shhhhhhhh...... - said the spirit coming more closer to me .

I will not leave anyone - said she and grabbed my neck tight . I struggled to get off her by hitting my legs as she lifted me more higher with all her strength grabbing my neck and threw me in the other end of the room . I flew in air and landed on the floor thus hitting my head against the wall after which I went unconscious .

My head was bursting in pain as I got up in the morning . I was shocked to see that I lay in the store room for the entire night . I remembered the incident that happened last night and turned back to look out for elsa's body . She was lying dead in the other corner of the room . I decided to leave that house as soon as possible and not tell anyone about what had happened last night . I took all my belongings to make sure that I am out of this mess and the police does not come behind me once again . With this I left that house immediately and headed towards my dad's house .

I was all alone once again , the woman who was supporting me to solve this mystery lay dead before me but how,

I dint know about it .......

The more and more I tired to solve this mystery the more was it getting complicated for me .
