A Favor

One day, Ruth asked for a favor from Kevin. She cried in front of him and told him that she had forgotten her parent’s faces. There was a picture of them in her house and she asked Kevin to do her a favor and get the picture for her. But why could she not go in herself? 

Break-Down

When Kevin asked Ruth why does she not go in herself and see the picture, Ruth broke down. She sat down and started crying. Finally, she took a deep breath and told Kevin, “My home has become a dump because my husband died, and I lost my mind.” But it hardly seemed to be the truth to Kevin.

Doubtful

Kevin could not trust Ruth even if he wanted to. He decided that going inside the house was the only way to find out the truth. He told Ruth that he would find her parent’s picture for her and get it. She explained to him where the picture would be and told him to look for it at the precise place and nowhere else. 

The House

Kevin opened the lock and then the door of Ruth’s abandoned house. As soon as he stepped in, there was a pungent smell and it was difficult to breathe in there. Kevin looked around and the house was indeed a nightmare. But he was soon going to find something that would give him goosebumps. 

Looked Around

There was trash and human waste littered all over the floor. What was even Ruth up to? Kevin decided to look closely all around the place and find out what was going on. He saw something weird, and the truth would be revealed now… 

A Discovery

Kevin saw a shelf leaning against the wall and when he touched the shelf, it opened a secret room. For a second, Kevin wanted to run away. Why would someone so old have a secret room with such a strange opening? But then he went inside.
