The next morning, he woke up.He washed his mouth and went downstairs.
"Oh!! Here you are dear, now come and do your breakfast". His mother said while taking a bite of her half fried egg.
"Okay" . He said in a sleepy voice. "Try to be active, son, today you have to help me with my work."
His father said while taking a sip of his tea. "Alright! Dad".
He said with a little smile. After sometime, aayan and his father started to open the files. They were busy doing their work . "Aayan, I think I have left the blue file in the car. Grab the keys and bring the file."
His father said. "Alright!"
He took the keys and went into the garage. He tried to open the car by fixing one key in the lock." Why isn't this key getting fixed." He murmured frustratedly.Suddenly, he was hit by something. "What's that?"
He thought. He picked up the paper. This time the letter was black stripped. When he opened it, there was "A black dot".
Same thing was written.
" Now, what's this! Everything is written with black ink! What's all this ?"he thought.
He picked it up and kept it in his hand.He took out the file from the car.He looked here and there to see if there is someone but not a bird chirped. "Strange!" He said while raising his eyebrow.
He went inside. "Here's your file dad."
" Oh, thank you. What's in your hand?" His father said curiously. " Should I tell him?" He began to think.
" No, it wouldn't be good." He thought. " No dad, it's nothing , just a paper."
His father gave him a stare. "Ookay, alright."
He said. Aayan tried to smile on this *peculiar look".

In the evening, he went downstairs. Just like every evening, his mother was sitting enjoying the sunshine with her coffee.
"Hi Mom." He said with a smile.
"Oh hi, dear come and sit with me. I am sure you will love the cupcakes I have just baked." She said with an adorable smile." Yeah mom, they smell good." He said while smelling the delicious cupcakes."Mom, can I ask you a question?" He said while picking up a cupcake. " Sure". " Mom, is it possible to receive a letter or a message from an unknown person?" He asked.
"Well, it's an unusual question but if a person doesn't know you, then why would he send you a letter!"
On this statement, aayan showed an expression of worry and curiosity. "But why are you asking aayan? Is everything alright?" His mother asked with some worry and obviously some curiosity.
"Yeah mom, everything is perfectly fine, there's nothing special!" He tried to cover it. "By the way, these cakes are really tempting".
His mother smiled broadly.
Aayan got up and walked towards his room. "Should I tell Mom n dad about these strange letters? Or not". He was so confused. He kept on thinking about this. " If I'll tell them, what can they do?" He asked himself. "No ,I am not going to tell them. I myself will find out about the unknown sender". He made a promise to himself.
