A World without Humans

Chapter 6 ( last)

Then as decided, both of them went to the paranormal researcher's house to explain the story to her and ask for help.

The thief was living in the world without humans. He could not see any
person around so there was treasure for him everywhere.
“Where is everybody gone? Maybe it is lockdown.” He thought, “Whatever,
it’s a golden chance for me. I should go and see if the markets are still
open.”
The thief headed towards the markets. Not so far from him as he reached, Ayesha was also standing there in front of the mall where Zainab was locked. Finally, she found the mall
after so many efforts. She had called the police who promised to reach in
fifteen minutes.
While the thief was busy in searching for any open shop, the police arrived.
They opened the main gate and went inside to release Zainab. Ayesha was
explaining them the reason of Zainab’s arrival.
The thief caught the sight of an open mall, he rushed towards it. For his
surprise, he could not see any person around, not even the police. It was looking like the mall was offering everything to him on dish. He was
on cloud nine and his eyes began to shine as it was unbelievable for him.

He moved steps forward and picked up as many precious items as he could
handle in two hands.
The police continuously stared him in amazement for some moments then
one of them spoke, “Hey, what are you doing?”
The thief turned around to see no one. He assumed that he was mistaken
and continued his work. When he was stealing in front of the police, they called the watchman inside. Police didn’t take any big action against him as
they were trying to examine his intention.
The thief was about to leave after taking as many things as possible and
planning to return but Ayesha shouted loudly,
“Thief! thief!” He looked over spontaneously in an instant shock.
At this, the police stepped forward and seized him firmly.
“Maybe he is having a mental disorder.” One of the police officer said, “He
is acting as if he cannot see us.”
The thief had gone mad. He could hear the voice of people and feel many
hands holding him but no one was around.
“What’s happening? Where am I? Leave me..” he was being violent. The
thief was arrested.

Meanwhile, Zainab heard the shouting of, “Thief! Thief!”, she thought
that the people was calling her a thief as she was caught alone in the mall.
She quickly hid herself.
“Zainab! Zainab! Are you here?” Ayesha’s voice was a big relief for her.
She let herself out.
“Thank God, Ayesha you are here at last.”
“Were you hiding?”
“I thought that people are calling me a thief.”
“Uff, Zainab!”
They expressed their gratitude toward police and left the place.

On the other side, Fatima and Haneen reached Ayesha’s house along with
the paranormal researcher. She began her investigation while Fatima was
explaining her story.
After a while the bell rang and Ayesha entered with Zainab. She was
shocked to see a paranormal researcher in her house. She looked at Fatima and Haneen with questioning eyes.
“Actually, your house is haunted.” Said Fatima
“What?”
Then Fatima explained her whole story. After hearing everything, it was
very easy for Ayesha to understand that it was all just because of the lenses.

“Let me explain its reason then. It’s not because of the ghosts.” Said
Ayesha and she clarified everything and told them all about the lenses and
the reason of her striking singing performance at stage. All girls were
surprised but pleased at the same time after getting this. “So that’s why that poor thief was acting strange. He was the same thief.” She said when she
remembered the crazy thief in the mall, “Oh no! I lost everything.”

“It means that here are no spirits?” asked Haneen
“Of course here is.”
“What!?” All girls spoke in a voice and looked at the paranormal researcher
with shocked eyes as she said this.
“What do you mean?” Zainab addressed her
“My arrow is pointed towards this letter.” The researcher handed over the
letter to Ayesha, “So what?”
“It means that this letter is related with some spiritual forces and as far as I
understand after your lens story, those lenses could indicate spirits but not
humans.
“So that girl was a witch?” asked Zainab
This made Ayesha remember that she could still see that girl even when
she was wearing the lenses.
“So there was nothing good for my birthday.” Sighed Ayesha sorrowfuly
