(Past)
How will I save my children.......i searched everywhere...... Tried to call someone....but all in vein.... he has cut the cables of our telephone......I was worried......the doors were locked now...... I couldn't see anyone near by whom I could tell this....

At last I lost every hope and went to him....
"where are my children?? kill me instead of them...... they are innocent.... please let them go... "
I said with tears in my eyes ....
He replied...
"Next part if the story is ready......would you like to hear... "

I didn't had choice.... I sat there in order to listen to him..... This was the only way I could know about them......and also If they were.....even alive....

He sat in front of me.... with a book.... my eyes were full of grief for him.... if the thing was not for my children he would have been dead till now.....

He started his story with a smile....

CHALTER 3

After the death of George.....Lorraine was helpless........Her children were also very sad after their father's death.... they were not ready to accept his death...... After some days...... everything was setting down...... Lorraine was busy taking care of them...... she wanted them to be comfortable and also not to miss George too much because this would make them sad........

one day when she went out to get some groceries....... children were playing hide and seek in the house.... after some time when she returned, she called them as she brought some snacks for them...... But she didn't get any reply from them.... she thought they were still playing the game....... she tried to find them in every corner but she couldn't find them...... As she was going out to search she heard some noise from the basement..... "

when I heard about the basement in the story I immediately ran towards our basement....... the door was locked..... And I knew who had the keys .... I immediately ran towards James... he was sitting on the same spot with keys in his hand........I tried to snatch the keys from him..... but he immediately stood up and kept the keys in his pockets....... and asked
"Do you want something mam......?"

I burst out in to tears in front of him and begged him to give me the keys....

"please give me the keys.... my children are my life......Instead of them take my life if you want but please give me the keys...... "

His expression changed as if he was suddenly a different person.....he took out the keys from his pockets and threw them towards me.... I quickly ran towards the door and tried to open the lock but it wasn't opening..... the keys......the keys which he gave me were not of the lock...... I was devastated.... I didn't knew if I would find my children or......their bodies.....

I went to him and asked with tears in my eyes "what do you want..... you killed my husband and now you are killing my children....why????
what have I done to you....?? my voice was loud and filled with grief......

he came towards me....." you killed my family......YOU KILLED MY FAMILY "
he shouted........
"I don't even know who you are....how can I kill your family...... "

he said...."if you don't confess about your sins, you won't be able to see your children.... and if you don't, you won't see them alive.... ever again" after saying this he left.... his voice was suddenly different.....and strange....

I was really confused.... I didn't even knew him how could I kill his family .....I went back to the door and tried to break in the basement but I couldn't do it...... at last I went back to him...... To confess.... the only crime I did in my life...... at that time the only thing running in my mind were my children and to save them I had to do that.....

(present)
what was going on?? Did Helen really kill a whole family.... but how could she do that when she didn't even know who was he?? And did James really killed her children...... this was really really scary... what confession was she talking about........
