Sylhet, 19 September 2024 at 5:00 pm (Bangladesh)
A young girl named Emily about twenty-five years old was getting ready for her date night. She was about to meet her virtual boyfriend for the first time, they met on Facebook. He lived far away from her place. She didn't know so much about him but as she was talking with him for quite some time so she felt deeply in love with him. So they decide to meet each other in person and he was about to come today to her area. She was very excited to meet him.
The girl was wearing a beautiful red gown, a silver watch on her hand and a pain of black high sandals.
Wow, Emily you look great in that dress. (her roommate)
Really, you think so? Do you think he's going to like me in this dress? (Emily)
Yes, why not? This dress is very beautiful and you look gorgeous in it. There's no way he's not going to fall for you. (Her roommate)
But what if he didn't like me? What if he hates my look? Ugh…these thoughts are killing me. (Emily)
Emily, stop pushing yourself too much. If he didn't like you at all then why would he came all the way just to meet you? I'm sure he really like you. (her roommate)
Yes, you are right. I should stop worrying. It just that, I'm meeting him for the first time, I just want everything to be perfect. (Emily)
Don't worry, everything will be perfect. But… (her roommate)
But what? Why are you looking so tensed now? (Emily)
Nothing, I just …. Are you sure you are going to him all by yourself, do you want me to come with you? (Her roommate)
No, it's ok, you don't have to. (Emily)
Okay, as you wish. I was just worried about you as you are going to meet him for the first time and you don't know anything about him. (her roommate)
Of course I know about him, he's name is Rick, he's twenty eight years old and he works at some company…
What company? And what about his family background? (her roommate)
Fine, I don't know much about him but you don't have to worry, ok? Besides, I trust him. He won't do anything wrong, he's a good guy. (Emily)
Okay, okay whatever you say. (Her roommate)
While Emily and her roommate were taking, she got a text from her boyfriend on her phone. It says he has reached in Sylhet and was waiting for her on the 16th kuthipara road.
Okay, he's here now. I have to go now. (Emily)
Okay, but you have to come before ten o clock, otherwise the house owner won't let you in the house, you remember about his rules right? (her roommate)
Yes, I remember. I'll be back soon. (Emily)
She left the house and started to walking as the 16th kuthipara road where her boyfriend was waiting for her, it was only ten minutes away from there.
She reached the place but the road was empty and shrouded in darkness. The whole road had only one light and it wasn't enough to see clearly anything around her. Emily was getting very afraid of the dark but just then a black car came and stopped in front of her. She thought it might be her boyfriend. Someone opened the car window from inside. Emily lowered her head to see who was inside the car.
Rick, is that you? (Emily)
Hi Emily, please get inside the car. (Rick)
A boy with white shirt and black formal pants, wearing branded watch on his hand was sitting inside the car.
It was her boyfriend, Emily felt relieved after seeing him. She smiled at him and quickly got into the car. Her boyfriend started driving as soon as she got into the car.
While her boyfriend was driving Emily was looking at him. After seeing her boyfriend for the first time she thought to herself that her boyfriend was indeed a handsome man. He was more good looking than she wanted him to be. Suddenly she saw her boyfriend's eyes which was red and also looking at her. She felt a little shy.
You are really beautiful. (Rick)
Thanks, you are looking good also. (Emily)
I never thought you would look so beautiful in reality… (Rick)
When her boyfriend was admiring her form she noticed that her boyfriend drove the car to a road that she had never been on.
Where are we going? (Emily)
A secret place. (Rick)
Secret!!! Emily was surprised as her boyfriend don't know any place in Sylhet as he told her never visited Sylhet. While Emily was thinking about this her boyfriend stopped the car at a secluded place near the road. There was an abandoned house with a large pond beside it.
What is this place? Why are we here? Emily asked.
Well, this is your surprise. (Rick)
This is my surprise? I don't understand. (Emily)
You will understand when you start walking with me. (Rick)
Emily was still in confused…
Rick got out the car and started walking towards the building and called Emily too. Although Emily felt a little hesitant, she answered his call and started walking towards the house. Rick went and stood by the pond near the house. Emily also stood beside him. The moonlight fell on the water of the pond; the view was very beautiful.
Beautiful, isn't it? (Rick)
Even though the place was a little strange, Emily replied, Yes, the view is so nice.
I'm sorry I brought you here, actually I wanted to take you to some expensive restaurant first but with so many people in their I thought we might not get to know each other well. I actually wanted to spend some time alone with you, that's why I brought you here. If you feel bad we can leave this place, get back to my car and go somewhere else you like. (Rick)
No, I like this place. This place has a unique beauty, its really quite in here. I like this place and I also wanted to spend some time alone with you.
But you have never been here so how do you know about this place?? (Emily)
Actually I came to know about this place from one of my friends, this place belongs to his uncle. (Rick)
Well, although this surprise was a little different. But I like it. (Emily)
They came very close as they spoke, Emily looked really beautiful and attractive in the light of moon. Rick put his arm around Emily's waist, Emily didn't interrupt him at all. He pulled her so close to him. The two of them were so close that they could hear each other's breathing. Emily closed her eyes as Rick brought his lips to hers. They both started kissing each other deeply. They kissed each other for some moment. Rick asked Emily when the kiss was over….
Is this your first kiss?? (Rick)
Emily felt shy, she replied Yes, it is. (Emily)
Hearing this Rick let out a wry smile at this.
They passed some time hugging each other like this.
I'm really glad you came this far just for me. (Emily)
Me too. (Rick)
I never thought we would ever meet and come so close. (Emily)
Why? (Rick)
Actually my family is very strict, they never allowed me to meet with someone or get involved with any guy. So, I never get so deeply connected to someone. (Emily)
I guess I'm lucky then. (Rick)
You never told me anything about your family. (Emily)
Because there's nothing to tell.. (Rick)
Emily asked him about his family but he avoided it….
When Emily saw the time on her watch (10:30 pm) she requests him to go back as she have to return to her house otherwise her house owner won't let her in. Rick agreed with her and they were returning back to his car. Emily was walking in front and he was following behind her. Suddenly she noticed that Rick was not behind her. As the place was deserted and shrouded in much darkness Emily became afraid and she started screaming for Rick. But could not get any reply. Suddenly she saw Rick in front of the car. His eyes were blazing like fire. Seeing Rick Emily felt relieved. She ran to him and hugged him.
Where were you?? I got so scared, Emily said while hugging him.
I went to get something important but don't worry I'm here now. (Rick)
Then he pulled out a sharp blade from behind and drove it into Emily's head. Blood started pouring from her head, her eyes seemed to come out of their places. Emily's whole face covered with her blood. Before she knew it, she died on the spot, clutching Rick. Rick caught Emily's frozen body before it fell on the ground.
He white shirt was covered with Emily's red blood. Rick laughed loudly as he held Emily's frozen body.

Eshu didn't know how will she manage the money as she has to pay her flat owner and also has to admit to her dream college. She felt very worried.
She took out her phone and started calling Robin but like every time, his phone was switched off. Eshu started crying as she doesn't know what to do now. She thought maybe Robin would easily arrange a job for her since his father was a rich man and owned many businesses in their city. But her thoughts went in vain.
She has not been able to communicate with Robin for the past two months, she couldn't understand why Robin had suddenly left her without telling her anything. She started to think that the person who could not live a moment without her was going fine day after day without contacting her.
She started to think that even two months ago her life was different and full of happiness. Robin loved her a lot, he was a lot protective towards her. Although he rarely got angry, he cared for her a lot. As far as she remembered that she had no argument with him, then why did he left her without saying a word.
Putting an end to all worries, she gets ready for the hospital to see her mother.
Eshu reached the hospital and went to the cabin of her mother where she found her mother lying on the bed wearing an oxygen mask and she was still unconscious.
She sat by her mother's side for a while holding her hand and looking at her blankly.
The nurse came to see to check up on her mother, Eshu asked her about Doctor Paul who was her mother's doctor. She told her that the doctor also wants to talk to her about her mother's condition.
So she went to him and the doctor told her that her mother has not regained consciousness since last night.
How could this be possible she was fine yesterday morning… (Eshu)
Yes, I know, but some of her body parts were injured deeply, her physical condition looks not good. We can't say anything until she regains consciousness. You have to keep patience. We are trying our best. (Doctor Paul)
Eshu left the hospital again with her sorrows and she went to a restaurant called Friends Cafe. She went there to meet the manager of that restaurant who was her boyfriend's best friend.
Hey, Bob (Eshu)
Hey Eshu, how are you? (Bob)
I'm not good at all, did you find any trace of him?? (Eshu)
No, I still haven't find any trace of him. (Bob)
What about his family, did you tried to contact with them??? (Eshu)
Yes, I talked with one of his cousins on the phone but they also could not give me any information about him. (Bob)
I don't know why is he doing this to me, how could he leave me like this without saying a word. Did he really love me or was it all an act of him? (Eshu)
Eshu, I think you are misunderstanding him, I know he really loves you, I have seen it. I don't know why he left like this without saying anything but I'm sure he will definitely come back for you. (Bob)
There's no need for him to come back… (Eshu)
