There was only the noise of alarm and Jenifer lying on her bed with her eyes closed tightly and uttering, "Please let me go! I've done nothing!"
"Jenifer!" Della gave her a jerk and she woke up. She was sweating badly. "Are you okay sweetheart?" asked Della.
"I just had a nightmare." Jenifer sighed.
"Jack is waiting for you downstairs." Della uttered.
"I'm late again."
"You can take a day off if you you're not well."
"It's important to go today and who said that I'm not fine. I only had a bad dream."
Jenifer hurried and got ready. She rushed downstairs. "Sorry I'm late" she apologized, "Let's go."
"Won't you have your breakfast?" acquired Jack.
"We can't miss the visit today."
"Sit down Jenifer." Jack made her sit on the chair in the kitchen. "We will leave after you eat." Jack said.
Jenifer saw a twinkle in his eyes. She remained quiet. Jack made her an egg with some toast and a glass of orange juice which she liked a lot. Jenifer had her breakfast and they both left on their journey. Jenifer remained quiet all the time.
The house was situated about 200 miles from Jenifer's house. It was somewhere beside a park. The park got closed after the incident because everyone was afraid to go there.
Jenifer and Jack reached the park. They did not know where to go next. They got out of their car and went here and there in search of the house. They both walked and reached to the woods. It looked like a dead end.
"I bet we won't be able to find the house ourselves." Jack uttered, "We should ask the locals around here."
Jenifer stood still staring at the wood. Her dreams appeared before her eyes. "This is the way." she pointed at the woods.
"This is a dead end Jen." Jack exclaimed.
"Follow me." Jenifer started to walk towards the woods.
"Are you crazy Jen? This is nothing but a dead end."
"This dead end is the start to our journey."
Jack also followed Jenifer to the woods. He believed that she was only acting strange and there would be nothing at the end but he only followed her to satisfy her. They went into the deep dark woods.
It was quite in the woods. They could only hear the cracking of the dry leaves under their feet. The trees were big and thick. Jenifer walked as if she knew this place. Suddenly she stopped.
"I told you Jenifer there is no house here. Let's go back and ask about the house from the people who live nearby." posed Jack.
"And I told you that the dead end was our start" uttered Jenifer.
"Look…" she pointed.
It was the same house in between the plains surrounded by the woods at every corner. They could see the house from a distance. They ran to go closer. It was a big house, looked old and creepy. It had a see-saw, a slide and a swing at one side and a beautiful lake on the other. The lake made the scene look beautiful. Its water was as pure as glass. Jack got shocked, "Have you been here before?"
"I don't know. I could see the way appearing before my eyes." told Jenifer, "We should go inside."
"Jenifer is there something you are hiding?"
"Why would I want to hide something?"
"You would know that."
"Why are you even asking me that?"
"That's because you're acting weird. At first you were attracted to the picture then the next day you made this place final and then you were like dying to visit this house."
"Jack, I think we should go inside." Jenifer started to walk towards the front door of the house.
Jack asked her many questions but she was not bothering. Fortunately, the door was not locked. Jack opened the door which gave a large squeezing voice. They both went inside. They were near the stairs when Jenifer's head started to spin and she soon got out of count. Jack held her in his arms.
Jenifer came back to be conscious. The pain in her head was killing her. She found herself lying on the place where she fell down. It was dark. She slowly got up, "Jack are you here?" There was dead silence. "How can he leave me like this on my on in this creepy place." cried Jenifer. Jenifer thought that Jack had left her alone in the middle of nowhere.
She heard a voice from upstairs. "Jack is that you?" she uttered in a frightening voice but no one answered. She slowly went upstairs to see if it was Jack but she found nothing. She got scared. She was about to come back down when someone from behind her whispered, "I WILL HAVE REVENGE."
The sweat to dread rolled down her face. She quickly turned around but no one was there. She looked here and there but could see nothing but terror and dread. Suddenly, something grabbed her foot and dragged her down the stairs, and then with a shock her eyes opened. She found herself in the room of a hospital, lying on a bed. Her head was bleeding.
"Another horrible dream." she thought. She could see someone's shadow through the glass mirror. The shadow grew larger as it came closer to the door. Jenifer's breath got stuck in her throat. She tried to scream for help but could not feel her voice coming out. At an instant, the handle of the door rolled and slowly opened. She tightly closed her eyes and started to yell. Her eyes suddenly opened and she started to cry. Jack was sitting beside her. They were in the same hospital room.
"Jen what happened?" Jack held her.
"She is here to kill me. Please…please save me." Jenifer cried.
"Your head… it's bleeding!" Jack got shocked because as far as he remembered Jenifer got hit by nothing and he was with her all the time. Jack called the doctor to cure the wound. When the doctor went away Jack asked her, "Is there something I can help you with?"
"Nobody can save me from her." exclaimed Jenifer.
"Jen you were dreaming, wake up now." Jack tried to make Jenifer calm.
"What happened after I fell down?"
"I took you in my arms and brought you here but what actually happened to you back there?"
"My heads started to spin and my senses got knocked out."
"Jenifer I want to show you something."
"Show me what?"
"This." Jack showed the picture of that eleven year old girl, Medora. She had the same face like Jenifer when she was a child. Both Jack and Jenifer were shocked at this. "This cannot be true." exclaimed Jenifer.
"I was also shocked to see this. Jen you feel yourself connected to this place, right?"
"Yeah but…"
"What if you are the same girl?"
"This cannot be real."
"Jenifer I'm having strange feelings about it."
"Can you drop me home please because I'm not feeling good right now? We'll talk about it tomorrow."
Jack dropped Jenifer home. He told her not to think much about what happened today, they will soon get to the roots of the truth.
Is Jenifer the same girl? If this is so then why cannot she remember her past?
