Words in flower bracket is {information}All 6 of them walk futher in the mansion. Hoor lock the main door for safety. Annu/Maha go to the kitchen and luckily find bread jam on the kitchen counter. Both bring it to others, they fill their tummies. The kids were getting sleepy hence, they decide to go to the room.
While they were climbing the stairs only their footsteps were echoing in the mansion 'tak tak tak tak', some photo frames were hanging at the sidewall of staircase. On first floor, there were 4 rooms. Hoor decides that, they will stay in the third room as it has two beds. Annu and Maha take one bed whereas others settle themselves on another.
Zubi : Isn't it too chilly here?
Haider : Obviously, it will be cold as its winter.
Annu : You know? Once I told Maha that whenever there will a spirit around you, you will feel cold. And she{laughs} even stopped to go near the fridge because it will be cold near it.
Shehry{amused} : Really maasi?
Maha : That was long time ago, I was just 5yrs old.
Hoor : Only I know how difficult it was to convince her, that there is no spirit near or in the fridge.
Haider{curiously} : But, is it true?
Hoor : Maybe, because our elders use to tell us the same thing.
Zubi : So it means....
Annu : I believe, if you get scared they scare you and if you take it light nothing can effect you.
Maha : Enough talks now, let us sleep.
Shehry : Good night.
At 3am Haider's comforter slides down little by little, he pull it back and sleep. Again it slides, he in sleep again pull it up and drift back to sleep.

Hoor/Annu wake up in the morning and freshen up themselves. Annu wake up Maha/Haider. Hoor/Annu goes down to look for something which they can use to fill their empty stomachs. Maha walk in the washroom.
Haider who was sitting on the bed hear a knock from under the bed. He was curious to know what is it? So, he crawl to the corner of the bed, bend his half body down and try to see what's down. He slowly lower his head and gets shocked to see two legs at the other side of the bed. Now he was scared he very slowly sit straight and turn his head to the other side.
Haider{annoyed} : Annu di, you?
Annu : Yes me, why do you look scared?
Haider : Uh..I thought I heard something.
Annu : What?
Hoor enters the room, wake up her kids and informs them that the caretaker said "he is going to get the mechanic and he also brought some food items for us to eat."
Maha : Aww, he is so nice.

Hoor : Don't you think something is weird here?
Maha : Yes, the man in the first photo frame at the side of staircase is weird.
Zubi : No maasi, the second photo frame man is.
Haider : You all should see the third photo frame man, he is so scary.
Shehry : You all are wrong, the forth photo frame man is the scariest.
