Diary of Death
Not everything we see is as it seems. ‏Digging out things that are not meant to sometimes can be disastrous he said.
‏Dev was still curious to find if the so-called Book of death in that old and sealed library could determine his death day.
‏Searching on the racks as mentioned in the article, ‏Dev dug through them to find out the book he was looking for.
‏On the top end corner of the rightmost shelf near the window, ‏Dev found a velvet packet with the book as he had read.
‏Taking it out, ‏and flashing his light on it he saw,
‏The book was a small worn-out pocket diary with some ancient language inscribed on it

‎-yati almost liman yaktubuh

‏The surroundings were silent but still had something eerie about it.

‏Following the steps mentioned by the anonymous author of the article, ‏he took the pen that was attached to it with a rusted metal chain and write his name on it where a lot of names were already mentioned with the dates signed under them. ‏The last entry was by someone named ‎"Chirag" ‏and was dated ‎1936.
‏Signing his name on the book Dev tod there to see what would happen and was about to close it when he saw a set of words on the page right next to it which was empty when he opened the book.
‏This sent a chill down his spine.
‏The words were the same as on the cover of the book. ‏The translation was mentioned below it in clear bold words ‎-

‏"yati almost liman yaktubuh"
‎(Death ‎comes ‎to ‎those ‎who ‎write ‎it).


‏That ‎was ‎the ‎last ‎anyone ‎saw ‎him....alive. ‏His ‎body ‎was ‎discovered ‎in ‎a ‎mangled ‎heap, ‏disfigured ‎like ‎a ‎broken ‎doll.

‏How ‎do ‎I ‎know?... I ‎warned ‎him ‎at ‎the ‎beginning
