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
