A month after the pumpkin
soup, I was rummaging : (1) through our desk drawers to find the money I
had stashed : (2) years ago in case of an emergency. I wanted to
buy my wife a gift. That’s
when I found the leather-bound journal. I didn’t know : (3) whom it belonged to and how it got there so I opened
it and saw my wife’s
name written on the very first page. I closed it and put it back, then I
noticed that a small note had fallen out of it. I picked it up and read the
name “Lilith Simon”. I knew everyone in our village and I was certain
that this Lilith person wasn’t from around here. I turned the note around and saw a
map drawn that lead to a small village about an hour away from ours. I had
never been there, and only heard stories about the people that lived there.
Most of the stories were exaggerated, that I knew, but I couldn’t help feeling a sense of fear that arose from the
thought of Cobweb Meadow. I had to find out who Lilith is, and why my wife had
directions to her house.
I told my wife I was going on
a hunting trip that same day, and would be back later in the evening. I set off
to Cobweb Meadow, prepared for the worst. I had a pistol in my duffel bag that
I hoped I wouldn’t
have to use.
