The House at the End of the Road
When Mara arrived in the village, the sun was already going down. The road was empty, and the wind was blowing through the old apple trees. She stopped in front of a small wooden house that stood at the end of the road.
Mara had not visited the house for almost ten years. When she was a child, she used to spend every summer there with her grandmother. They used to pick apples in the garden, bake pies in the kitchen and sit on the steps in the evening. In the mornings, Mara used to follow her grandmother around the garden and ask questions about every plant. On rainy days, they used to sit in the small bedroom and look through old photographs together. As a little girl, Mara used to believe that every room in the house had a secret.
That morning, Mara had found an old envelope in a box of family photographs. Inside the envelope, there was a short note from her grandmother. Mara opened the gate and walked slowly up the path. While she was searching for the key in her bag, she heard a noise behind her.
Inside, the house was cold and silent. Rain was beginning to hit the windows. Mara climbed the stairs and entered the small bedroom. After a few minutes, she found the loose floorboard. Her grandmother had hidden a small metal box under it many years earlier.
Mara opened the box and saw a notebook, a photograph and a silver key. She had never seen the photograph before. Outside, the rain was falling heavily, but Mara hardly noticed it. She sat on the floor and began to read.
