Assalamu Alaikum.
Hello everyone,
I am @sojib1996

From #Bangladesh

Today I will complete the last part of a story by @waqarahmadshah sir for the second week of "Wordsmiths Fiction Week 2: Season 24 – The Envelope". I hope everyone likes it.

Diego opened the box this time and there was a picture of a man holding a child in his arms. Diego thought that this man and the child would be father and son. However, Diego saw the picture of that man, and the picture somewhat resembled someone he knew. Diego looked closely and saw that it was a picture of his father. Diego's father had died about 25 years ago and Diego was young at that time, he had not seen his father but had identified his father by looking at some pictures of his father's last years.

However, Diego became very worried. Just the next day at 2:17 a.m., that blue sedan car arrived. Diego was a little scared when he saw it and he patiently went to the front of the sedan and saw his father through the glass. Seeing his father, Diego's throat went dry and his chest started to tremble with fear.

He could not avoid his eyes in any way, but this scene was very scary for him and he was not ready to see it, how could his father who had died 25 years ago now appear in front of him? At this point, the sedan disappeared again. Diego kept watching the moments behind him with the CCTV camera, the strange thing was that nothing of the sedan entering and exiting was seen on the CCTV camera. Then Diego understood that it was coming only for Diego. The matter was very worrying and very scary for him. The next day, Diego told a pundit (possessing a lot of knowledge) everything, after hearing all his incidents, the pundit made Diego do something that Diego could not even imagine.

All the furniture left as a memory of Diego's father must be sold in the market. And the pundit also said that because of this memory furniture, the spirit of Diego's father is roaming around and if it continues to roam for a long time, the situation will get worse.

Diego heard this and quickly called his mother and told her everything and his mother said something that Diego was not ready to hear. The same thing happened to his mother too, Diego got very scared after hearing this and quickly planned to sell all the furniture as a memory of his father, a few days later Diego got a call from his mother's house that his mother had died under a tree by the pond. Hearing this, Diego came home and he fell into a bit of grief, after a few days Diego saw in his dream that his mother and father were coming in that blue sedan and wanted to force Diego to get into the car, he suddenly woke up. His body was sweating, he was breathing heavily and his heart rate was increasing, in this situation, Diego got very scared so he turned on the lights in the house and somehow passed that night.

The next day, he shared everything about his mother's death and the dream he had with her with the priest. Hearing the priest's story, his eyes widened. He told Diego in a hoarse voice that his father's spirit had killed his mother and wanted to kill Diego too. The priest, the biggest priest in their area (who casts out demons), told him everything and the big priest told Diego to quickly go to the market and sell all the furniture in the house as a memento of his mother and father and give the money to the first poor person he sees on his way home from the market. On the new moon night of that month, he accompanied the poor person to his parents' graveyard at around midnight broke the shield of a neem tree, and buried it.

Diego was scared after hearing the big priest's words, but to save his life, he had to obey the priest's words. He went home, took everything his parents had made to the market, and sold it at a fair price. He first saw a poor man and gave him all the money and when he told him to go to the graveyard at midnight, he agreed. Exactly 2 days later, on the night of the new moon, Diego and the poor man went to the cemetery. It was very dark and silent at midnight. Diego was very scared there but he had to win. They broke the shield of a neem tree in the graveyard and buried it. After burying the tree, when they were about to leave the cemetery, a voice came from behind, "' Diego, you have abandoned us'", and without saying anything, Diego quickly left the graveyard and started crying out of fear. That night, he came to the elder Pandit crying. The Pandit told him to bathe him and he came after taking a bath that night Diego was with the Pandit and from then on Diego usually did all kinds of work without any problems.

I would like to invite my friends @mariyaafrin @selina1 and @kuhinoor to take part in the contest.
