The Mystery Red Umbrella
The Lost Box

The sound of a cell phone ringing woke Anna from her sleep. Anna sees a voice coming to look for her phone, maybe it's from Barrow. Her eyes were on her mother who was asleep because she was tired.

The ringing of the phone still sounds but soon stopped. Anna's eyes were fixed on the sky of the room, everything that happened was like a dream but she knew what was experienced was real.

A case filled with mystery. The spirit that helped him and the one who spoke to him, he was sure it was the red umbrella. The curved object he reached while mired into the hole was the handle of an umbrella, the, he was very sure of that but why the spirit of the red umbrella was there when the world belonged to the evil spirit that was after him.

He was completely confused but if he could not figure out the root of the problem then he would not be able to solve the case. Suddenly he remembered the box he had buried in the back of the house. He wanted to see if any beasts died again due to the evil aura of the box.

Anna moved slowly, she even opened the door and closed it quietly so that her mother's sleep was not disturbed. He hoped the box would be safely buried in the ground but he was very surprised to see a hole propping it wide.

"Mommy!" Anna shouted loudly to the point of making her mother surprised and woke up.

"Anna, what's going on?" the mother ran out.

"Anna, where are you?" his mother shouted.

"I'm in the back, Mom!" Anna had already stepped towards the gaping hole wide. Needless to say, the box he had buried was gone.

The cross he buried with the box was already broken in two. Some were burned, some were planted upside down. Strange, who took the box?

"What's up, Anna? Why are you outside? his mother ran over and was very surprised to see the messy back garden not to mention the three large bear carcasses that were not far from them.

"Oh, jeez. What happened to your back garden?" his mother looked panicked, looking around the messy and broken.

Anna did not flinch, she was thinking about what happened. The only ones who knew the box were him and Barrow. But how could Barrow have taken the box while his soul was trapped in another world or was it some kind of diversion to trick him into taking the box away?

"Mom, while I'm looking for Barrow's soul, does anyone control Barrow's body?" ask Anna.

"Nothing, we take good care of you two. No one controls his body. What's the matter, why is your garden like this and what's this hole?" ask mother.

"The box is gone, Mom," said Anna in despair.

"What do you mean, Anna?"

"I buried the box here myself, I'm sure I buried it right. Some of the crosses I buried with this box are broken, look. It seems like someone deliberately broke it and set it on fire. After getting the box, only Barrow and I knew. Before Barrow's soul was taken away, we did want to bury the box together but look, the box is gone Mom. Someone dug it up and took the box away!" anna said, she looked frustrated.

Though he thought he would get a clue to the box after his aunt returned with the grandmother's notebook, but what happened? The box disappeared while he was busy. Was it Barrow who took the box? It doesn't feel possible.

"Surprisingly, we didn't hear anything while the ritual was going on. Your partner couldn't do it either. You see that hole? Like dug by a heavy object."

"How's this? My clue just disappeared!" It was upset, but he couldn't do anything.

"Are you sure no one knows where the box is other than the two of you?" ask mother.

"No, I'm pretty sure if only the two of us knew where the box was, '" which is weird. The burial place of the box is also only those who know.

Suddenly he remembered the words of the girl who he believed was the spirit of the red umbrella. The girl said if the enemy was around her but she didn't notice it at all. Don't-don't you?

He must be careful of everyone. What if the one standing with him right now was not his mother? What if the one who was with them was not his aunt and what if the current Barrow was not Barrow? All could have happened let alone the spirit was once imitating Nick to trick him.

Anna rubbed her face, it was complicated. Now he had to be wary of everyone since they could all be his enemies.

His mother looked around, trying to find a trace. Anna looked at her mother with a suspicious look, was that woman really her mother?

"There's no trace of anything, Anna. There should have been a trail but it was all done so cleanly."

"I really didn't expect it" Anna crouched down and took out a broken cross. Who took the mysterious box?

Anna stepped towards the house, with many thoughts. His mother approached, Anna must have been disappointed that the clues she could have painstakingly disappeared. But they also do not know what the box is and they also do not know whether the box can be opened.

There was nothing Anna could say. Only suspicion is in the heart. He's got to think hard, find the culprit. Is it True Barrow?Or her aunt and mother? Or does anyone resemble one of them at the moment? Shit, his head hurts.

"Don't despair, when your aunt comes back we'll know what box you got. If the box is indeed dangerous, it's good that the box is lost because if we make the wrong decision then we will bring danger" said his mother

"Mommy's right," Anna tried to smile, but she was upset about the box's disappearance.

Anna and her mother wait for Barrow and the aunt to return in the living room. Anna lay down so that the wound would not hurt too much, while her mother examined the wound and gave her medicine. Although the wound was bleeding several times but now it can be handled well.

Anna even fell asleep while waiting, she woke up to the sound of the door opening and Barrow went inside along with her aunt.

"How, is there?" ask Anna's mother.

"Of course, but let us rest for a while" said his sister.

Anna's eyes could not be separated from Barrow and the aunt, was there someone who was transformed into one of them? He hoped not but his stolen gaze could not be separated from Barrow because only he knew about the box and only he knew if the box would be buried and where it would be buried. Is Barrow an enemy in a blanket that he should be wary of? Or is it the others? It really does give you a headache.
