(Un)Pleasent Twist

"Now you have done it!" the old man's ghost said.

"Done what?" Rudy asked with a confused look on his face. "I just want answers."

"There are things in the world that are better left unknown."

"There sure are, but believe me, my existence is all-knowing, so I got to know everything."

"Whatever you do next, you will solely be responsible for it. Don't blame others for what's coming next!"

"Can you calm down? I am actually— for once, confused as fuck, and I am thinking of answers." Rudy compared the wallets side by side and nodded, "Yup. They are the matching copy."

He opened the old wallet and saw the paper like he had for the first time. The ghost had stopped him last time, but now he wasn't going to stop, no matter what happened.

He slowly took out the paper and immediately regretted doing so.

"You have got to be kidding me…."

The paper was the family photo Rudy had taken from the polaroid camera.
