She Left a Note… But I Wasn’t Supposed to Read It – Episode 3

Title: Episode 3: Inside The Wardrobe

I picked up the nearest thing I could find — a glass cup.
Yeah, stup*d weapon. I know.
The knock came again.
Slow.
Heavy.
Like a fist dragging across wood.
I pulled the wardrobe open—
Nothing.
Just clothes.
But the moment I turned around, something fell out — a small box wrapped in black cloth. I didn’t see it before.
I picked it up and removed the cloth.
It was an old key.
Attached was a tag:
“For the box in the floorboard.”
What box?
I bent down and started tapping the wooden tiles.
And then I found one that sounded hollow.
I pulled it open — and inside was a small metal box.
Same size as the one she once told me her father left behind before he vanished.
I used the key.
Inside were three things:
1. A blood-stained photo of her as a child
2. A name I’d never heard: “Moses Aluko”
3. A note in red ink:
“If he finds this before she’s ready, everything ends.”
