Here I was lying now, in an isolated place filled with shade and humidity. I don't know what happened but it started all from here-
"Such a beautiful evening! I wish so much that I could take my lovely doggy - Shero for a walk." But my boss had loaded me with work and had to stay for two whole extra hours. That is I could leave only at seven. Such a crook he is! I was sure my Shero would be worried and disappointed for why I didn't arrive at usual time of five. I sighed and got back to work.
"Alas! Work is completed, I am coming Shero." My home is just ten minutes from my office. Thanks to my cousin who found it out for me. But I couldn't wait for that ten minutes to get over, I missed Shero so much even if it was just 2 hours for others it was like two days for me...
As I parked my car, I hurriedly went over to the lift clicked the button for third floor. As soon as the door opened at my floor I ran and fumbled to get my keys. Shero must have heard it, because as soon as I opened the door he jumped at me and started licking my face. Some other day I would have found it gross as his saliva was all over my face but I was delighted enough to think about that.
I quickly kept my bag, washed up and came out. Shero was waiting there, swinging his tail with excitement and the leash in his mouth. I took it from him and tugged it.
We left the building and started walking on our usual path. But it felt different as the sun had already set. But it felt lot better, I was relaxed after a full day of work. I was thinking about the day at office when Shero suddenly started pulling me to the left, we never used that path and it also gave me creeps seeing nobody there. But if Shero makes up his mind he wouldn't listen. I had to follow him. As soon as we turned I noticed a mansion. It was abandoned and old, but seemed to be beautiful place when in use. I had always wanted see a mansion this big from close but it wasn't possible till date. Shero was silent now, he must have lost track of whatever had pulled his attention. So now he was following me. When I tried pulling him to the mansion he tugged at the leash and didn't want to come. But like dog like owner, I wanted to see the mansion from inside and pulled him with me.
I expected the door to creek as shown in horror stories but it moved smoothly. It was very dark inside, I was about to leave but as the air gushed in a window flung open and I noticed a faint light. I don't know how an abandoned place like this would still have working lights. So I decided to take a look. My 12 year old doggy didn't want to accompany but I took him up stairs. As soon as I opened the door I felt a sudden pain in my chest and at the same time Shero panicked and ran downstairs. He was so fast that his leash slipped from my fingers. I ran behind him and caught him at the door, I was about to scold him when started howling which showed mixed emotions. A combination we would have never witnessed that of JOY and DREAD!!!!!
I didn't know what he has seen or felt so I hurried upstairs to take a look. There at the door of the room I stood terrified where I observed Shero's and my body cut in two pieces...!!
I don't know what happened. But I know I DIED Yesterday!!!
