Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 249 - What just a coincidence?
...***...
Leon stops his car in front of a big house that is none other than where he lives.
He stepped out of the car. Today he deliberately drove himself without Irfan because he wanted to enjoy lunch with Elvina.
As for Irfan, he ordered to do other things elsewhere.
Leon stepped toward the entrance, pushed it slowly and sauntered in.
"I'm home."
"You're home, baby?" A middle-aged woman walked up to him.
Zabrina Pamela approached her only child who had just arrived. He looked very tired after spending all his days in the office.
"Yes," she replied slowly.
"You look so tired, do you need to ask Emma to prepare warm water for you to take a bath?"
"No need, ma. Let me prepare myself, I'd like to take a break before taking a shower anyway."
"Alright whatever, then go up. Mama will call you when dinner time comes."
"Yes. I'm riding." Leon left the now silent Zabrina looking at the back of his son who kept moving away until he arrived at the stairs and disappeared as his steps grew higher.
Blam it!
Leon was stunned on the sofa, leaning back with his head turned to look at the ceiling of his room.
Leon had been unable to think of anything other than the strange events he had experienced while with Elvina.
Why can't I remember anything about what happened before Elvina went missing? What the hell is going on? Leon continues to be haunted by question marks that are increasingly popping up in his brain.
But, in retrospect, an event like this did not just happen once. If not wrong, I have experienced it too. Leon frowned trying to recall another incident similar to what he had experienced today.
Before long, he finally remembered some similar events. The first was when he asked Elvina to buy him coffee, and the second was when he wanted to take Elvina home with him. He even pulled Elvina's hand.
The incident happened right after he was in the same elevator as Elvina.
"Really! This is not the first time, because I have experienced the same thing. And this might be said to be the third incident since a while ago."
"What's really going on? Why did I suddenly experience this? I suddenly forgot what I was doing, but after many days I remembered what had happened. Besides, why was it when it happened...In that moment Elvina disappeared?"
"I really don't understand. Is this just a coincidence?"
Leon memonolog, that afternoon he continued to be curious about what really happened.
"It seems like I better stop thinking about all that. Now I'm gonna take a shower and change my clothes. Ugh, my body is really sticky."
Leon got up from his seat. He stepped into the bathroom to prepare warm water for himself to soak, after which he returned to prepare the clothes that he would wear later after finishing bathing.
After everything was done, Leon immediately picked up a towel and removed all his clothes and took a bath.
