I went downstairs, try to figure out what does he mean? what does he really want?
I found Nicholas, went to him, took him, said:
-something wrong in this house, something not right.
-I said that and you didn’t believe.
-No, I mean something with those people in that castle!
-What?! how?
-someone here will die, look at that riddle “red roses in the woods, woods full of lions and tigers…”
-yes?!!
-okay, listen, that riddle means there’s some girl, wearing red, she looks like a red rose, and this castle is the wood full of people who are lions and tigers, one of them or maybe some of them will kill her….!
-how did you know she is not he is?!!
-okay, red rose?! refer to a girl, when you flirt with me what do you say?
-rose, flower, lady..etc.
-okay!
-oh.
-yes, she is not he.
-what will you do?
-1st I will take that riddle from the end.
-means??
-means that I will search the castle from its end, from back.
-why?
-because back there’s a garden wish is somehow like woods, but tiny and you get inside and keep your eyes on any girl wears a red dress.
-okay, take care
He kissed my forehead and went inside, I went to the garden and began searching for any clue that could help me, suddenly a hand holds me closer, hands belong to that stranger “Carlos” said:
-hey, you smart as everyone told me, you try now to find the clue, right?!
-yes, I’m not just smart, I’m honest too and strong, so tell me Mr. player what do you want?
-the mystery.
-which mystery?
-yours.
-what?!!
-yours, oh, let me make it easy a little bit, you have a big mystery that turned you to be a very good detective, and I want it, I want that secret.
-why?
-time runs fast Miss Anushka, maybe someone will die.
He went away, I tried to stop him but realize yes time runs, I must hurry, I searched the garden until I found a window to some room in the castle, inside two man and beautiful girl in red, I knocked and she opened to me, I said:
-are you okay?
she looked at me and said:
-yeah, why shouldn’t I?
I looked to the man and said:
-Who is he?
-my husband, who are you? what are you doing here?
Before I answer her I found another girl in red outside the room heading to stairs, I went after her, I found another envelope beside the door, I opened it and read:
“smart, very smart, your time is so good, but can you know who will vanish?”
I ran after the girl, I opened the room she went inside, she wasn’t alone, she was with some other girls wearing red about 5 girls, I asked?
-who are you all?
-Misteresses
-really? to who?!
-to our master.
-yes, who is he?
-Carlos.
Carlos held me again and said:
-they’re mine.
-you made them wear red.
-yes.
-why? who are you?
-think.
I suddenly thought not mean red rose to wear red, she might wearing something else or might hold red rose or maybe he, not she…… I opened my eyes widely, Nicholas gave me red roses before we came here, then this morning gave me one it’s in my room, but how did Carlos know that?
Am I the one or Nicholas? I asked again:
-what do you want?
-you knew who I refer to?
-yes.
-who?
-Me.
-good, very good.
He ordered the girls to go out, then looked at me;
-sit.
-I don’t want to sit. I want answers, now.
-stubborn lady, 1st, I know everything about you, 2nd; I want you to work for me, actually, I’m not asking, I just order.
-what? order anyone, but not me, I won’t work for you and all this games for telling me this crap.
-no, for testing you and for a sure you if you refuse, your beloved assistant and lover will know your past.
I didn’t say anything, I don’t know for how long? then said:
-Why do you all that?
-because I want to find who killed my wife, I been collecting info about you for two years, and I don’t want the killer to go jail, I want revenge, and I knew you’ll refuse if I said my problem immediately.
-what you’ll do if I found the killer?
-I’ll take my revenge, from that I will take the case, you’ll finish your role.
-No.
-you don’t have a choice, believe me, I can destroy you.
-you crazy!
-yes, I’m, if you call my angry for my wife’s death craziness okay call it what you want.
-you can take revenge by sending this killer to the prison.
-No, I want to torture him/her by myself.
-that won’t make you feel peace.
-don’t lecture me, just agree.
He got closer, his eyes full of angry, sad, dark, I kept looking at him, this time, I mustn’t be afraid of him.
-No, I won’t agree.
He held me and said:
-listen, don’t say no to me again.
-I’ll and do whatever you want.
-oh, so strong right, but if you lover die and everyone blames you, what you’ll do?
-you won’t do that!!
-I’ll
-okay, I’ll help you.
I though I’ll help him, but with my rules and he won’t know.
