 Annie,s pov

Today is our father,s remembrance day. it,s been a while we have been to his graveyard. the surroundings of the graveyard is covered with bushes and thrones located in a lonely place. After giving offerings to him we decided to go to our dad,s favourite place where he loves to spend his free time.  "elite play" is a place where people can enjoy their time, a place for the couples to hangout, children for their play, old people,s heaven in earth from the noisy and crowded cities, a lake on the side and what not.it,s been a long time since  we had a picnic together as a family after our father left.

amy is crying and alex was consoling him. what a wonderful sight it was. it is rare to see amy crying cause she always make others happy by hiding her sufferings. as a sister  i knew it very well. we used to have a relative here actually she is not our relative but we consider herself as one 

elsa, a 64 year old woman who used to live with her only grandson. later her grandson have to go to new york for completing his graduation.

he said that it is not safe if the evidences would have been in his house so he gave it to us. we were trying to give  this as soon as possible but you know my grandson have to go to new york so i decided to keep it safe as i don,t trust anyone here to give such an important file. here it is...
