CHAPTER 20

FINDING LARA IS MIKE'S GOAL
While he was driving, he was thinking about his fiancé. His fiancé told him something during their stay at Miss Shaira. At sundown that night, three hard knocks were heard at the door. There was no one inside when the door was opened. Invisible footsteps rumbled on the floor, and a young girl in a modest white dress appeared on the landing at the bottom of the stairs and suddenly disappeared. When she went upstairs, she noticed a girl seated on the floor who was looking in pain. The girl was looking at Lara and slowly approached her and touched Lara's tummy. Lara was about two months pregnant. After she touched Lara's tummy, she looked for a while, turned back, headed to the window, and suddenly disappeared. Lara had a third eye, and she could see the invisible creatures. She used to have this kind of gift. The other scenario in which Lara saw an unsettled spirit was when she went downstairs and saw the man sitting on the floor in the living room with his head down, and she approached him, but he didn't look at her, and he disappeared when she blinked her eyes. Lara saw not only two, but three unsettled spirits. She saw the woman standing and looking at Amanda while she was sleeping. Lara's colleagues were already asleep, and she was the only one who woke up when she wasn't feeling well, so she saw the woman when she opened her eyes, but she couldn't see her face. This was a long-haired woman spirit on Amanda's birthday in the mountains; she also said she saw this unsettled spirit pass by behind the car, and she saw this in the car's mirror. She didn't tell Amanda because she might be scared or because she wouldn't believe her. She thought that Amanda might be offended if she told her, so Lara kept quiet.
Mike was very worried about Lara because she was the woman he fought with his parents over because he was supposed to marry the daughter of the business partner of his dad. Lara was infinitely gentler, quieter, and more subtle in her approach, and whenever he was around her, Mike had a sense of peace. When he was with Lara, he felt he seemed to have a perfect life.
"She was the one who changed my personality and the person I am today, especially in terms of how to love and help others. Lara liked to help those in need and her friends due to the fact that a woman helped her finish her studies way back in college. So, Lara wants to spread kindness around her, and that's what I have liked about her most. Because Lara stopped a year in college and worked at a fast food restaurant, the woman who helped her was Amanda. Lara and Amanda have known each other for a long time, and they first met when Lara saw Amanda sobbing under a tree, so she approached her and asked why she was crying. Amanda said that her phone, money, and a gold necklace bought from her mother had been stolen. That's why Amanda doesn't know how to get home because she doesn't have money to spend and she's thinking about her mom's possible reaction. She helped Amanda get home and gave her money. Since then, they have become close friends. Amanda graduated from college first because she was a year older than Lara. So Amanda was able to finish college and start work early. During Lara's studies, Amanda was there to help her financially until Lara finished her degree. Amanda helped Lara get a job at the company where she was working. So they treat each other as sisters, which was how Lara helped Amanda. Because of Amanda, he met Lara within the company, and from then on, she was very pleasant to be with.
"I remembered those days, she asked me to go to her place, and I began going there on the pretense of having a cup of tea. She also visited my home on occasion. My visits, on the other hand, were clearly more frequent. Her house became a haunt for me, and I looked forward to going there every day with feverish anticipation. It didn't take long for me to realize I had unintentionally but fervently fallen for her. She was soon all over my mind, taking up every waking moment. and maybe even my sleep. On a sweltering summer afternoon, while sleeping in a friend's room, I blurted out her name in my sleep, blabbering something about whether or not she had come to the office. My friend assumed I was in love right away. From that day forward, he began to tease me. I gradually discovered that she, too, was drawn to me. It was an amazing sensation. The world seemed to come to life all of a sudden. It taught me to recognize meaning in the ordinary."
He loves Lara very much, and all Mike could do was thank God that he had finally had the courage to unburden himself and tell her about his father, and Mike had been the right one to tell her. It has only strengthened the bond they shared and the love he felt for her. A thousand-pound weight he had carried for a lifetime had been lifted from his heart. And Mike's boss, Sir Claude, suddenly called. "Mike, where are you now?"             
"I'm on my way to Miss Shaira's house!"
"Alright, be careful, and you will take all of them back here; they need to go home because they are needed by the company. They have had consecutive absences, and there is nothing done at work.
"The work of your colleagues here in the office is piling up."
"Okay, Sir Claude!"
"Bye Mike, take care!"
While he was driving, he noticed his car running slowly, and it stopped. Upon checking that the tire was flat, he drove his car to the side of the road. "Whoops, I don't have the extra tire, and there are no stores or even houses here nearby." He checked his phone, but unfortunately there was no signal in the area. He came down from his car and was searching for a place that had a signal, but unfortunately there's no signal in the area. He really wanted to be able to see Lara and hug her because he really missed it and he worried a lot. Mike took a deep breath and thought about what he should do, and because he wasn't able to think of any ways, he grabbed his chocolates from his backpack. When he wasn't able to think of anything, he immediately ate chocolates. He used to eat chocolate when he felt stressed.
