She was beautiful and serene. She was innocent and alone. She was divine. She studied in the university and worked in a cafe to survive. Her evenings would be packed with trays, coffee, cookies and customers. He laughed and made people laugh too. She was that cafe's life.
"Eve, what time you leaving?" asked the owner.
"In Five minutes, Jack" she said."Its 12.00 darling and you have to walk quite a distance."
"Jack, I'll just finish these pending work and would leave in sometime."
"Alright Eve take care. See you tomorrow."
"Bye Jack"She was winding up with the pending work in the cafe and was ready to leave in a minute when she saw someone in a long black coat and a black stetson. She thought him to be a customer she went out of the cafe to see who he was but it was too dark to figure out specially at that distance where he was standing.
"Excuse me, Cafe is close. Do you need help or something?"
He didn't answer. "Well, hello can you here me?"
Without saying a word he walked

off.
She was confused for a second. That behavior was unnatural she thought. But it didn't make much difference to her in anyway.

She locked the cafe and started walking towards her house. It was 12.30 am and lanes were empty. It was December winters so it was
too dark as well.
She walked down the lane towards her house. The lane was too dark and scary but that was the only way she could walk down.
While walking down the lane she noticed a house everyday. The house was across the street and vacant for years. Dark and isolated like always but today

she saw a light and a rocking chair moving. "Were the Johnson's back?" she thought. "Who on Earth would live in the old Johnson place after what Johnson had done to his wife and family in that old house." She wondered.
But then she walked towards her house without any delay.
It was fresh morning and it was snowing. Temperature dropped down maximum this year. It was early morning and she was going towards the University while passing by she saw a man standing near the lamp port. To her he resembled the same man she saw saw outside cafe. He wore black coat and black stetson and a sigar in his mouth. She wondered who he was and was he trying to follow her?

Not delaying much she ran towards the university. She decided to inform the owner of the cafe regarding the same once she is done with the university.
It was evening and almost dark due to winters. She had to go to cafe as well. She walked quickly towards the cafe. As soon as she reached the cafe she told Jack about the man whom she saw outside the cafe last night.
"Ha Ha Ha" laughed Jack
"Don't worry darling must be someone who must have lost his way. You need not worry. I am here" Jack convinced her.
Her evening went fine serving customers but she couldn't stop thinking about that man. He in her vision now and she couldn't remove him from her thoughts.
There were questions in her mind for which she required answers. Who, why, what , when all sorts of unanswered questions she had in her mind but now she had to concentrate on her work that was more important.
It was 12.00 am when cafe closed Jack was with her. She couldn't find the man and asked Jack to leave and that she would be fine. Jack left home and she went her way. Tonight again while walking towards her home she saw lights in that
house and the same rocking chair moving and a man who was smoking. She kept walking ahead when suddenly lights went off.
She was now scared. Lane was dark and she was alone in that isolated area. Creatures made sounds. There were bats flying around and suddenly the lane that she was so familiar with became strange.
She started running towards her house. While running fast she dashed with the same man who was outside the cafe and university. She fell down. She was scared and panting badly. She felt she would die here with Asthmatic attack. She was so shocked that her scream was not that loud enough to reach some one's ears.
She couldn't see his face but she tried to run as fast as she could to save herself but he ran too and he was too fast and with no delay he almost matched her pace.
He caught hold of her. She tried to escape but he pulled her c
lose. He removed her hat and came close to her.
"Jack?"
"That's you?" Eve shouted.
"Whats all this?" she enquired
"I love you darling come to me" he said
"Why me Jack?" she questioned
"Do you hurt the person you love this way?"
"Yes" he answered.
"I'll kill you and preserve you with me"
She was unable to understand what he was trying to say. He carried her on his shoulders.
She sobbed, she screamed, she pleaded but he didn't pity her.
"Jack, wait put me down" she screamed
He took her inside the house.
she kicked him and punched him on his face and ran inside and hid behind the closet. It was dark and he tried to hunt her down. She ran downstairs in the basement trying to hide from him.
The moment she reached downstairs she couldn't breathe. It was stinking bad. She was trying to find a suitable place to hide but suddenly she tripped over something and fell off. She couldn't refrain herself from screaming. That was Mrs. Johnson an
d further more she saw his kids as well wrapped in a plastic. What had he done to his family? how were they still the same. she tried to touch Mrs. Johnson. Oh No! he has covered them with wax to preserve them. She tried to get up and run but found him behind him. He pushed her down so that she could fall and came close to her.
"Jack what have you done to them?"
"I told you my love remember that I cherish and preserve people I love"
"That's what I have done Eve and I love you too and can't let you go away from me."
"No Jack, please don't do this to me" She pleaded.
He didn't listen she kicked him and pushed him hard and ran. She went upstairs and tried to search for a phone. She dialed 911 and called for police.
He pushed her and hit her badly she ran and tried to save herself and in a while police reached there and caught hold of Jack Johnson. Police cleared the dead bodies of his wife and children too.
