I reached my home in a few minutes and had planned to meet ray's friends today after office . They may know the reason of why ray was disturbed before she died and who was calling her everytime , thought I .

I had a quick shower and my breakfast and left for office as it was already 3 weeks of me going to office , I had so much of assignments to complete . After reaching office I started working on my assignments quickly as I had to leave early today to meet ray's friends and collect as many evidences as possible .

Why are you so stressed buddy - asked  Jasper . Jasper was one of my good friend in workplace and he knew all about ray from the time I was dating her .

Still thinking about her ?- asked he .

Am I left with any other option jas ? I can see her spirit everywhere and now I have lost my support system also , Elsa ,the detective whom I hired for helping me is also dead but who would kill her ? I am not able to understand of what is going on around me ?- said I placing my hands on my head . I am completely stressed out jas - continued I to him .

Relax Andrew take a deep breathe and think calmly of who can help you out of this - said Jasper and continued ,

If you need my help I am always there for you remember that - said he and left to his cabin .

But Jasper was right ,I have to think of someone who can help me to find the murderer maybe someone close to ray , to whom ray would never hide anything .

While I was thinking about it suddenly a name struck in my head ,

Liza , she could help me out of this mess . Liza was ray's best friend and she never hides anything from her . They were like soul sisters and who could help me better than Liza , thought I .

Today evening I had Decided to meet Liza at her house , I had been there a couple of times and hence I knew the address well . I finished all my work by 4pm and immediately started to Liza 's house . It was 20 minutes from my workplace.

After 20 minutes , I reached her house . I opened the gate to reach for the door of her house but the door was locked . I wondered if she was in office , I immediately called Charles who was also working in AVC channel and asked him if Liza was there in the office and he said that she was not there , infact he said that it was 3 weeks since Liza came to office .

What a shocking news was this , the same 3 weeks before ray died and Liza was also missing , thought I . What was the connection ? I kept wondering of it .

I asked the nearby houses if they knew where Liza was but none of them knew . Finally I asked the milkman of that area .

Have you seen the woman staying here anywhere?- asked I

Yes I saw her 3 weeks back - said he and continued ,

But after that I did not see her - said he .

Did  anyone come and meet her?- asked I

Yes sir 3 weeks back a man came to meet her , I didn't see his face properly but after seeing him that woman got stressed out . He started misbehaving with her and forced her inside his car . They left by that way - said he showing the way .

After that you dint see that woman - asked I once again .

No sir - said he , I asked him to keep an eye on the people who visit this house by paying him a huge amount of money . He also agreed to it .

I drove towards the route where the milkman saw the car going , I asked everyone on the way about Liza but no one had seen her . I was completely lost now , all the ways in front of me seem to close as I remained clueless . When an idea suddenly struck in my head for which I needed the help of Jasper . I called Jasper ,

Yes Andrew - said he picking up my call .

Jasper can you help me in tracing a number's last location .

Of course Andrew , I have a friend in the police wing who can help us out - said he and asked me to message the number .

I messaged him the number and asked him to call me back as soon as possible .

For 1 hour , I was waiting in a tea stall expecting Jasper's call but there was no response . So I decided to call him once , I took my phone and unlocked it but by the time I could call him , he himself called me.

Yes Jasper did you track the location of that number ?- asked I

Yes I will send it to you - said he and sent me a message which showed the last location of the number . I asked the nearby people about the location and they said that it was a few kilometers from here , so I started with my car to that place .

In 30 minutes I had reached that place but there was no one there, it was a huge building which was under construction and there was no much people in that area . It was a lonely place . I decided to show Liza's picture to the people there as I had a strong feeling that she was somewhere near .
I showed her picture to a few people but none could identify her and then finally I decided to give it a last try , a nurse was coming in the opposite direction , I Decided to show liza's picture to her .

Sister have you seen this woman anywhere ?- asked I to her showing her the picture .

Yes sir , she recently joined in our hospital . She was mentally unstable, she was very scared and was in some fear ,A fear of being killed . -said she.

Which hospital is she in ?- asked I

The city mental hospital , it is just 3 kms from here But it will get closed in another 1 hour - said she showing me the way .

I ran in my maximum speed to reach the hospital on time . There was only 50 minutes left now and I had planned to reach there by the next 10 minutes . I ran as fast as possible and reached the hospital in 10 minutes . Now I had 40 minutes more to speak to Liza so I hurried inside the hospital and asked the reception for the room number . She at first refused to tell me anything but then I pleaded her and described my relationship with Liza after which she seemed convinced and gave me the room number. I ran quickly in search of the room number and when I reached the room I was left with exactly 30 minutes within which I had to get all the necessary informations from her .

I entered her room slowly by knocking the door ,

Liza - called I . She was busy scribbling something on the wall just like a insane person .

Liza this is Andrew here - said I walking towards her . After listening to my name she swiftly turned towards me and kept staring at me as though she would kill me this very minute .

I stepped back after looking at her reaction .

Liza can I talk to you ?- asked I .

Can't you see I am already talking to her - said she

Talking to whom , there's only you and me in this room Liza - said I .

No there are three in this room - said she smiling at me .

You are smiling at me but why ?- asked I

No I am smiling at her , she is right behind you - said she .

What - said I , Fear swept all over me while I gathered all my courage and turned back quickly .

There is no one here - said I

Hahahaha - she laughed aloud and continued ,

She is in your right just beside your neck - said she as I sightly moved my eyeball to my right . She was so close to me that words refused to come out of my mouth . She kept staring at me but I Decided not to move and stayed still . She held my jaws tight , I felt as if my jaws were crushing as her hold was so strong .

Aaaaaaahhhhhh...... - screamed I in pain . She held it more tight and pushed me towards the wash basin . I hit my head very hard and the wash basin nearly broke . Blood started pouring out of my head and soon the doctors came into the room as the sound with which I hit was that hard . I was immediately taken for first aid .

______________________________________

How did she become mentally unstable doctor - asked I to the doctor treating me .

Who ? Liza ? - asked he

Yes - said I

We found her floating in her own blood near that construction site 3 weeks back . It seemed as if someone had pushed her from the 2nd or 3rd floor of the building but fortunately she was still breathing when she was brought to our hospital . We treated her and when she came into her sense , she refused to identify anything . The only thing she told us was her name Liza and apart from that she did not remember anything .- said the doctor.

She remembered nothing apart from that are you sure about it doctor . Did she speak something unusual ? Can you please think once again? - asked I

Yes , she used to tell that she is speaking to ray but I don't know who that ray is . Maybe her illusion because patients like liza have the habit of creating their own characters . And yes she also told a name when she got admitted here, she was quiet scared when she was admitted here but She was not at all in her senses when she took that name - said he ,

And what was that name doctor.? Please try to remember - asked I

I don't remember the name exactly but it started from the letter 'P' -said the doctor .

P ...... - said I and started thinking of who it could be while the doctor almost finished my dressing and I was permitted to leave .

Before leaving I wanted to have a glance of Liza and her room , maybe I could get some clue from there , thought I

I went to her room and she was in the same place ,scribbling on the wall . I could not understand of what she was writing , i tried to read it but I couldn't read it as words were overwritten . The only word that was clear of all was the word Peet... I wondered what that Peet was , I had to find out what it was . I looked around to find for some other clue when ,

He should be killed , don't leave him . -. Said liza and she kept chanting it again and again .

Who should be killed ? - asked I when our conversation was interrupted ,

Sir you are still here ?- asked the nurse who helped in my dressing .

Aah.... Yes I was just about to leave .I came here to check out for my belongings - said I and left the room immediately .

I have to find about this peet. What is it and how is it related to Liza and ray , thought I in my entire travel towards home.
