When we reached there we saw everything was messed up the sofa was placed in the middle of the hallway as if someone was dragging them and stopped when we came out.
I was now scared enough to scream
"I wanna go homeeee, Joe please do something, I don't want to die that soon, I don't have even a boyfriend yet"
"Hey stop you, silly girl, nothing will happen to you as long as I am here," said Jess in a confident tone.
"But in my opinion she is right, we should do something before anything serious happened," Mia said.
"Okay then, let's do something," Adam said while standing up from his seat.
"What?!!" I and Jess said in one voice.
he replied, " The point is that we don't have a car so there's not a chance for us to get out from this place-"
"Is this all you have to say?" Jess speak up.
"of course not, you idiot" he replied.
"we can go to our houses by walking?" he added.
"Adam are you an idiot or something, you must be out of your mind" I replied.
"What's wrong with it, Lia," he said.
"Look, Adam, we are least safe in this freaking house, but if we go in the forest we are definitely dead, so please remove this stupid idea from your mind," said Joe.
In the evening, A few of us hunt night for meat then have a bonfire to cook it up, and sat around the fire.
We were talking about our past school days when Adam said
" I wish Isa was here with us.
We all started looking at him.
"Guys don't you remember her, how caring was she, how friendly she was? You guys don't recall even at this moment? how she is a stubborn child when she wants something"
Adam burst into tears while speaking, Joe immediately hugged him.
At that I felt a bitter tear on my cheek, wait was I crying? N..no Lia you are a brave girl be patient get a hold of yourself, I said to myself.
"b..but how can I? she was the only one I used to share all my talks, all my secrets. How, how come she's not here among us? I tried my best not to cry but I couldn't get a hold of myself.
I started crying but fortunately, no one get to know that I was crying.
As Adam quit, they all went to their seats. and I immediately wiped off my tears, hoping no one saw me.
Then Mia spoke up "look, Adam, everyone has to go. Some went in their early ages and some in their old ages. Unfortunately, there is not a fixed date or time for death, Death is like an uncalled guest, you can't stop it to take your loved ones"
"But why Lia huh? why she?" Adam shouted.
"look Adam get a hold of yourself," Joe said.
"well wow, death is like wow it can snatch every person you love, she doesn't care about anyone, why, huh why is everything turned out like that? why didn't this fvking death come too early just why?
he started crying out loudly while sitting down on his knees. I can see his face which was as red as a tomato and tears were unstoppable coming out of his eyes.
Then he looked towards the sky and shouted
"WHYYYYYYYYYYY, just freaking whyy, why you don't let me tell her that how, how much I loved her why didn't you let her know why you just invite her, I came to know it now, you already knew that she will no refuse your invitation, how can even she do so?"
He was continuously shouting out his lungs for a moment.
At that, I thought;
"LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO HIDE YOUR FEELINGS"
In our conversation, Joe didn't say a single word. Maybe he too was recalling her, well who knows?
After a while, all of us went into our room, while I and Jss were still going upstairs.
I was ready for any incident as I was used to them by now. But I went towards Jess's room and just thinking of laying down on the sofa but found a figure was already there on the sofa, oh it was Jess.
"Jess how can you be so clever," I said. while he just smirked while keeping both of his hands under his head.
I sighed and laid down on the bed. I was still thinking of Isa. When Jess speak up;
"Do you still remember how Isa used to laugh?" he said while looking upward at the ceiling, I can still see his face which was too sad.
"We..well of...of course I did.." I said while getting a hold of myself.
"You know what Lia, sometimes It just feels like that she is not dead, she is with us, she is with me,"
he said and a tear was about to fallfrom his face when he immediately wiped it off with his hand.
"J..Jess I think you should sl..sleep" I said as I don't want to recall any moment I spend with her.
"stop it Lia, just stop pretending, I know you also remembered her, you also wanna hold her, wanna talk to her"
he said while sitting down on the sofa and facing me.
"I... I don't want to talk about it anymore Jess" saying this I turned my head in another direction. At that, I was just unable to stop my tears from falling out of my eyes.
I realized Jess again laid down on the sofa and maybe slept.
After a while, I too slept.
After some time, I heard someone crying it was a girl's voice, as soon as I opened my eyes it seems like someone was there in the room, as I can clearly heard someone sobbing, while sitting on the bed,
I started searching the whole room I don't know why but that sound was too familiar, as my eyes were searching the whole room.
I saw a figure sitting in the corner of the room, she was a girl, she was wearing a white dress. I can't see her face as her back was facing me, she had long, splendid and black hair.
she was hugging her knees while keeping her hand on her knees while continuously moving. I did some courage and stood up from the bed and don't know why started walking toward her. As I went closer to her I can feel her sobbing her heavy breathing.
I put y hand on her shoulder she stopped moving and froze at her spot.
And then slowly she started turning her head towards me. I can see it was only her head that was turning while she herself was sitting in the same pose.
As soon as she turned her head towards me
she, she was Lia, how can it be? It was she with blood all over her white gown and some stretches on her face as she had when she fell off the building.
she looked at me as I was standing there only a few feet apart...
She stood up from her place and started walking towards me and said
"Lia, I'm not dead, lia they all are lying, I am alive get me out from the grave, you know I felt too alone, Lia get my body out from the grave, I am scared there"
As I heard those words, I ran towards Jess and began attempting to rouse him. As soon as he woke up I was about to do something when he said
"Lia, Isa is not dead, get her out, she must be suffocating," he said in a serious tone with a serious face.
"CAN'T YOU HEAR GET HER OUT FROM THE GRAVE RIGHT NOWWWWWWW!!!!!!
he shouted.
