"Bela is being rude, she looks like she wants to kill me. Luckily I quickly locked the bathroom door tightly, otherwise, I might have died and no one would know."
"About my father, I don't understand. Previously, Bela threatened to kill my father if I didn't get out of the bathroom. And when I heard Bela's body fall and that's when I came out of the bathroom. And you know what I saw? I saw things getting better. When I got to the sofa where father was lying, I found that he had disappeared without a trace."
Talking blankly is the most effective way to relieve the pain Nada is feeling right now. The woman is now looking into Alex's eyes, she is telling the story because she believes in the man in front of her.
Alex, of course, listened well, he chose to focus on what Nada said, in the slightest, he never looked away or even closed his ears because he didn't want to miss anything the woman said.
"Who do you think was responsible for my father's injury? This is getting so weird, I can't even feel what it's like to give up." Nada's words sounded very stifled, at the same time she even sighed from exhaustion.
Alex nodded his head, his gaze was very serious indeed because his tone decided to tell the story. "Does your house have CCTV? If so, I suggest checking the CCTV and we'll see what's going on..." he suggested, perhaps the only highly accurate data.
"Yeah, b-but..."
"What? Don't make me curious with your nervous-sounding words."
"I'm suspicious of my stepmother, she seemed to be acting normal last night. Like she wasn't possessed by the creature that always haunts me in the mirror,"
Alex raised an eyebrow, looking at Nada seriously for looking for doubts from the woman in front of him, but there was no doubt behind those beautiful eyes. "You mean? I need a more detailed explanation," he replied, he also wanted to hear how Nada felt.
Nada looked into Alex's eyes, she didn't know if she wanted to express her concern to the man or not, but it seemed she had no other choice. "Bela seems to be hiding something. Don't you think there's nothing strange about that? How could the souls of the creepy creatures behind the mirror enter into human souls? I mean, aren't their souls already gone? Okay, this might sound weird, but..."
Understand what Nada meant, although it seemed that the woman was also confused by what she said herself, Alex knew for sure what she meant.
"You mean, Bela made all of this as if she was possessed by a spirit, correct?" asked Alex, his guess drawing conclusions from Nada's words. "If that's true, what will you do now, Nada?" he continued.
Nada nodded slowly, she averted her gaze and rested her head on the table with her arms folded. She closed her eyes first, dispelling the dizziness lodged in his head. And also, yes now she hasn't slept at all and the clock is already 2 in the morning.
"Can't just accuse. It's just my feeling, so don't think too much about it."
They were in the hospital cafeteria. Information about Mike who had woken up made them sigh and choose to fill their stomachs and quench their thirst, as well as Nada who wanted to tell the strangeness she felt.
…
Bela, now she has finished cleaning the house because the neighbors suddenly visited and she had to take out a few glasses for them to drink.
She walked towards the bathroom, the last place she woke up after all this had happened. Entering the bathroom, she saw broken glass scattered on the floor. Chuckling, of course, she knew who did this.
"Nada has always been a troublesome child," said Bela rolling her eyes, she took the broom and the cloth she had wetted, then crouched down and started cleaning the broken glass on the floor.
Feeling that she was done with what she was doing and had made sure that the broken glass was cleaned evenly, Bela immediately got up from her seat and took a deep breath. She took a black trash bag to immediately throw away the broken glass.
Carefully, she also started to pick up the mirror that Nada broke that was hanging on the wall. Put the broken mirror in a black trash bag.
"It's done, quite tiring."
Bela wrapped the broken mirror and its neatly wrapped shards, after that she walked back out of the house and headed to the back of the house, where the trash can in this house is located.
Putting the trash bag there, after that it developed a smile. "Slowly but surely, right?" Clapping her palms as if they could make the dirt or dust in her hands blow away.
Stepping back into the house through the back door, she had previously glanced at the old barn where Mike had found her in quite a deplorable condition.
Do you want to know what happened to Mike? Some parts of the body, such as the legs and arms of an adult male, had cuts like those produced by a knife, there were no serious injuries or damage to internal organs, only cuts.
Of course, Mike was awake, she didn't know what had happened because there was no way the man didn't feel the pain —but there wasn't a scream at that time—, most likely if Mike was sedated into unconsciousness? I don't know, sounds too complicated to discuss.
Bela put both hands on her waist, she closed the door very tightly.
Walking while glancing at the clock on the wall hanging in the living room area, she chuckled after knowing that she was finally alone in the house. Her house was clean, and of course, it was time to relax until morning came, nor did she have to take care of breakfast or do any troublesome things.
"But before relaxing, shouldn't I check what happened earlier?" Bela stops stepping back into the bathroom area on the ground floor, she looks up and sees CCTV in the corner of the room.
Silence for a few seconds, apparently she was thinking about some things that are currently bothering her mind.
Bela continues on her way to her and Mike's room where the CCTV controls are, of course, her husband is in control and sometimes she is just part of the monitoring but knows how to control it.
Arriving there, Bela sighed, she was already in the room after that stretched her arm muscles and smiled lopsidedly.
"Time to play."
