The Letter
Steve Kenneth was born in Australia. His mom was a Canadian while his father was a native Australian. Steve Kenneth after his graduation got a job in Stein's Exchanger and started to work as an Exchange operator. His job required him to travel to different countries, as the company he worked in, had different branches spread across the world. At his visit to New York where he stayed for a year he met his first love of life. A young beautiful lady working at "Coffee Decaf" named Rosemary.526Please respect copyright.PENANAy3jikqHlLs
Steve started dating Rosemary after three months and soon they fell in love with each other and it was about time for Steve to set off to new city of new country but this time he wasn't alone. He was accompanied by his young partner and fiancée and they planned to get married as soon as they lay there feet on Ottawa, capital of Canada.
Steve had made arrangements in a big Church near his home and everything went well until that stranger had made appearance.
Steve was extremely confused, couldn't think properly and at that time the best he could do was to leave the Church without uttering a word, but his actions were pretty obvious.
Next day Steve went to Rosemary and said "Look! I didn't come here to inquire about your past. I don't care what your past was, who that guy was or what relation you had with him, all of it doesn’t matter anymore. I apologize for my behavior yesterday."

Rosemary started weeping “I never imagined he…he would follow me till here. Don't worry darling he won't bother you again as long as I am around. I can't escape, I am really sorry...I thought I could start a new life...but..." She again burst into tears "but my past keeps on hunting me..."
Steve hugged her and patted her head. "It's ok darling...your safe now... don't fear…"
Even though it wasn't true but it did helped Rosemary and gave her a bit of courage and confidence.
"Just forget about it ....I have arranged everything ... tomorrow we will finish our wedding... Now cheer up."

Rosemary wiped the tears over her cheeks and smiled "you do know that I love you..."
Steve smiled, “yes I do....and I love you too…”
The next day Steve married Rosemary and they forgot about that mysterious man and they started to live a happy life like loving birds...Days...months ...years and a decade passed, but that mysterious man didn't show up again. And by that time they had an 8 years old daughter with two sons of 6 and 3 years. Steve had been living a happy normal life with his wife and children and had forgotten everything.
On one night like all other usual ones Steve came home pretty late from work, unlike usual the main door was open. He parked his car and came inside and to his surprise, everything was messed up. The walls were stained with blood, Glasses all broken, shelves fallen and broken, the bed was messy and all the chairs were broken. It seemed like 2 men fought carelessly. Steve started to call his wife Rosemary and his children, he searched the whole place but no one was home. Surprisingly the kid’s room was untouched and undamaged but they weren't there either. Steve was running like a mad man around the house. The things that worried him the most were bloodstains on the walls.526Please respect copyright.PENANAfHXahYTcnI
Disappointed and depressed Steve had no choice except to report to cops, despite knowing, how much he hated to be involved with cops.

A week passed but no response, it was like they vanished in thin air. And suddenly at noon he received a letter and when he opened it....he was completely stunned.
