Fear and confusion was written in the faces of everyone as the stir at the Camara that had a crack on the screen,
Her elder brother started calling out to her at the top of his voice, his voice echoed through out the silence forest with no reply anywhere, his face was filled with both sadness and rage then he murmured where are you pumpkin as he fondly calls her before he completely became motionless with a confused face.

Suddenly a voice came from behind saying maybe she lost her way let split up and search.

Everyone turned to see Nadeesha fiancee approaching he was already sweating from walking such a far distance,
Nadeesha's elder brother asked with curiosity how did you found out Nadeesha Was missing?
And he replied her best friend called me earlier so i had to rush down to her favourite spot which is here then he added, she has been here every day how could she has lost her way living behind a crack Camara, i think she was abducted he said sadly.

Who would have done that and why? Nadeesha Is a nice girl who would want to hurt my sister that person will answer to me i must surely find who is behind this Nadeesha elder brother said angrily.

Since the search wasn't successful the all left the scene
Nadeesha Father immediately reported to the authorities about his daughter missing and how long she has been missing, with immediate effects investigations had commenced and another round of search began.

While everyone was at home hoping to get a positive feedback from the authorities Nadeesha fiancee went back to the woods alone in the night, he got to Nadeesha Favorite spot where she normally sit to replay the videos she captured he has been with her in that spot numerous times so she knew it was her favorite.

He sat there for a long time hoping to see any sign of Nadeesha But no single person was in sight every were was dark and calm his phone suddenly beeps he has earlier set his alarm for notification by 12 mid night
Just when he thought to himself maybe she is not here anyway i should let the authorities do the work he saw a flashlight and the one behind it walk so fast almost running.

He immediately stood up and followed behind the unknown figure suddenly the figure halted as if she was aware someone was following behind Nadeesha fiancee hides behind a tree his mind was filled with many questions of what someone will be doing in here by this time, after a while the figure with flashlights began to move again but suddenly the light when off and the figure disappeared into the dark forest.

Days turned into week Nadeesha fiancee called Nadeesha elder and said to him i think Nadeesha Is still in the woods let go back and search her elder brother accepted and the went back in search of Nadeesha,the search every where to no avail just when there were about to give up Nadeesha fiancee spotted a diamond ring on the floor he rushed and picked it up and siad this is Nadeeshs's ring the ring i gave her though the ring look dirty and dusty the was hope that Nadeesha Will be close by Nadeesha elder brother Sat down on an old stone to rest he noticed the stone looks like a slab then he was curious what was in there so with the help of Nadeesha fiancee there pulled it open behold it was an entry to cave a cave that looks like it has often been visited

He heard a voice of a woman sobbing inside Nadeesha brother called out to his sister and she answered with a faint voice am in here Nadeesha hand and legs were firmly tied up in the corner of the cave, they immediately called the authorities and when the arrived she was brought out of the cave she looked dehydrated and pale with tear gushing down her eyes. Then she told everyone whose was behind her kidnap it was her best friend.

Nadeesha's best friend has always been so jealous of how Nadeesha was loved by everyone so she could not take it anymore when Nadeesha's fiancee proposed to her, the last picture in Nadeesha's Camara before she was nowhere to be found was part of her best friend evil plans so no one would suspect her.

Her best friend was arrested to face the law months after Nadeesha got married to the love of her life after she recovered and they lived happily.
