Maria entered her room and locked the door. Arnold followed her and he kept knocking on the door.

ARNOLD - "Mom, please open the door, mom" "I need that diary and it's very important to me right now" **BEGGING**

MARIA - "Just go to your room and rest" **TEARING**

ARNOLD - "Mom please, I need to know why this time I didn't go to that world when I said the magical words?" "I need to know that and there are still more things to know" "Please give me that diary" **CRYING AND SAT NEAR THE DOOR**

Upon hearing what he said, Maria could not believe it and just collapsed near the chair in the room. From inside the room, Arnold heard some sounds.

ARNOLD - **HEARD SOME SOUND** "Mom what happened?" **HE STOOD AND WAS SCARED**

"Open the door, mom." "What's that sound?"

But she was in shock and for some time she didn't respond. Arnold got more scared and he started to shiver. He didn't know what to do.

ARNOLD - **SHIVERING** "Mom are you okay?" "Did you collapse or what happened?" "What's that sound mom?" **SHOUTING**

Then he couldn't wait. He started to kick the door and tried to break it. At that time Maria came back to her senses and she stood up.

MARIA - **STOOD UP** **CRYING** "Arnold, I'll open the door" "Wait a minute"

She opened the door.

ARNOLD - **HUGGED HER** "Mom what happened?" "Did you get hurt anywhere?" **CHECKED HER**

MARIA - "Did you travel to that world?" **CRYING**

ARNOLD - "Which world mom?" **WIPING HIS MOM'S TEARS**

MARIA - "To that SHINE-DARK world?" **TENSED**

ARNOLD - "Yes mom" "But why are you?"

MARIA - **INTERRUPTED** "When did you travel there?" "Why didn't you tell me and hide that from me?" **CRYING**

ARNOLD - "Mom, I was scared that you might get tensed if I said such weird things so" **FEELING SORRY**

MARIA - "I have told you many times not to hide anything and tell me everything" " Tell me everything that happened in that world when you were there"

The two sat on the sofa and Arnold explained everything that happened during his time in the SHINE-DARK world.

MARIA - "Then, that day you walked out to bring ramen but you came out of your dad's room how?"

ARNOLD - "I have a lot of questions like you, but we can only obtain answers to all the questions in that diary." "Where is that diary?" **TENSED**

MARIA - "It's in the dustbin" **SAD**

ARNOLD - "What?" "Why did you..?" **AISH!!!**

He ran immediately and took that diary from the dustbin. Came back and sat on the sofa.

He started to read the diary and Maria was curious.

In the SHINE-DARK world, Rudra came back home but his son was not there.

RUDRA - "Baby, did you eat?" "Where are you?"

Rudra wasn't aware that the kid was out playing with his friends.

RUDRA **SEARCHING ALL AROUND**** "Baby where are you?" "It's not time to play with dad come out"

He searched everywhere in the house but the kid was not there.

RUDRA - **SCARED AND TENSED** "Baby where are you?" "Where did he end up?" "Did he go there again?" **THINKING**

He came out of the house and locked the door. The grandpa who lives near his house was passing through at the same time.

GRANDPA - **SAW RUDRA TENSED** "Rudra, come here"

RUDRA - **ALSO SAW GRANDPA** "What grandpa?"

GRANDPA - "Your son was...."

RUDRA - **INTERRUPTED IN THE MIDDLE** "Yeah I know where he is now, I am heading there only" "Be safe on your way grandpa"

He left without hearing what that grandpa was about to say.

GRANDPA - "Rudra... wait" "Your son was playing on the ground with his friends"

Grandpa cannot shout loudly, and Rudra did not listen completely to what he was saying. Leaving that place very quickly.
