Enigma Tale

Purely fictional story 

Priyan is walking from the bus stand and looks at the houses sideways and looks at the sugarcanes sold on the road for the Sankranthi festival.

Priyan goes near his vehicle he left in that place due to repair and there he sees a man hiding who by seeing Priyan tells him to keep silent and takes out a gun pointing at him and orders him to take to his home.

Priyan sweats hard and is forced to follow the order of a man he saw just now.

Priyan keeps silent and the gun loading marks fear in his mind.

Priyan goes to his home and Priyan's daughter, son run to him and hug him.

Priyan gets harsh on them shouting them to go inside.

The man says "Too harsh".

Priyan joins his hands and asks him to please leave from that place and the man says "I will leave in 3 days when my son comes and I will inform him."

Priyan tells him to enter inside and that man puts his hands on Priyan's shoulders and asks him to be casual.

Priyan's wife greets his husband and signs, ask who is the other and Priyan says he is my office friend who is going to stay here for 3 days.

The man wishes them good evening and introduces himself to be Nakul.

Priyan allocates a separate room for Nakul but Nakul presses his shoulder and says "any eagles here mean, this snake will bite you all with its entire venom."

Priyan gives Nakul tea which Nakul declines and takes out his chewing gum and chews it.

Priyan sits in his room and puts a knife in his drawer.

Nakul sits in his room reading a letter and writes something in its back and puts them in a drawer in his room. 

The two-day stay goes well and Nakul takes out his gun loads it again and slowly walks towards the room that was open hours back.

He leaves the house without telling anyone.

Priyan comes to his home and sees Nakul's room drawer open and sees a letter there.

"Hi, I did not even ask for your name, because I do not want to know it and I did not tell my real name to your family as it will put you in danger rather.

Life takes a toll on someone at some point and it made you meet me and vice-versa.

I am not the criminal you thought of, a police officer who killed a man, who is the reason behind my daughter's death.

Yes, I should not have killed him but I killed him because I was not perfect, I am flawed and a normal human doing a job for his family's happiness.

Sorry for the trouble, I caused."

Priyan cries and throws the letter at the dustbin.

Priyan is a criminal who got the job to kill the man who stayed in his place for two days.

Yes, his friend is the one who destroyed the life of that man's daughter by framing her in a criminal case which lead to her suicide.

Priyan warned his friend not to do and Priyan similarly kept a letter in that man's pocket.

The man opens the letter and reads it.

"I am a friend of the person killed by you and a person working for criminals, I took you to my home and tried to kill you on the first day-night itself, but I thought what wrong did you do?

Yes, I am flawed and criminal stealing hard-earned money of many but I felt what you did was right.

what you saw is not my family."

The man smiles and throws the letter at the rabbit-shaped dustbin nearby and pats on the head of the rabbit shape in the dustbin saying "Unbelievable".
