His family didn't even know where he was, neither they tried to know.

This man was surrounded by people but still alone. Employer admires his work and local people respected him more than any other officer.

He opened the letter that was kept on his table. A promotion letter.
So he was promoted. Soon he will leave this place. The news spread like a forest fire. Almost every person who know this man was affected.

The final day arrived. People organized a farewell event for Mr. Collins. When officers arrived to take Mr. Collins along with them , they were shocked.

They found he was dead lying in the coffin which the local people have beautifully decorated.


Speaker 2 heard about Mr. Collins' death. He remembered the words that someone said it was good that he was not going to that island. He became restless. Overthinking started effecting his work.
One day he received a letter-
"I know you are thinking about island incident. Since it has started effecting you to this extend so I will tell you the secret.
Our company needed a person who would be alone. So even he would disappear no one will ever search for him. Mr. Collins was such a man.

And the reason behind his death was the custom of the island people. They believe the person reincarnate in the same place where he or she die. Rest you can guess what would have happened.

Yours friend
One who clung on your shoulder"
