The Envelope


One day I was coming home from work tired and just ready to go to sleep. When I reached to open the door I realize the the mail was here, so I picked the mail up and took it inside. As I was looking through the mail all the letters seemed familiar all except one. That one envelope stood out from all the others, so I decided to open it. As I started to open the envelope the phone rang.

“Hello” I said , I got no response I was about to speak again until a voice Interrupted me and said

“Hi, I was waiting till you got home to call.”

By the time the voice said that I was startled. I didn’t know what to think of this. So I decided to ask him “What do you mean? How do you that I just got home?”

“That doesn’t matter right now”

‘What do you mean that doesn’t matter? Who are you” I asked getting more worried. I kept asking myself questions that I couldn’t answer, but only he could. He then interrupted my thoughts

“Did you get my letter I sent you?’’

When he mentioned the letter I knew exactly what he or she was talking about. I made my way towards the envelope that I got from earlier.I picked it up. I was afraid of opening the envelope. “What is it”

“Open it and you will find out” he said,

“How do I know it’s not going to hurt me”

“You trust me don’t you”

“I don’t even know who you are”

“Just trust me”

I carefully opened it, eagerly to see what was inside. I read the letter. The letter said “If you wish to know who I am follow the following rules.” He or she was still on the phone, I could tell i could hear their breathing, but as soon as I was about to say something they cut me off by hanging up.
I read the rules carefully. I didn’t know if I wanted to know who he was. I was scared, but at the same time I was dying to know. I followed rule number one which was “ dress into something warm, but dressy. This seemed strange, I thought. The rest of the rules were;

2.Get your car keys and a flashlight
3.Get into your car…..

What, what is this this only has three rules. I was confused, I didn't know what to do. I decided to go do as the envelope said. I walked to the garage, turned on the lights, and as soon as I saw the car on the windshield was written an address. I took a picture and erased it. I decided to go to that address. As i was getting closer to the address I got a call

“Are you almost here?”

“Yes! Can I know what’s going on?”

“No not yet, not until you get here.”

“But why can’.....”

I didn’t even finish my sentence. As I got closer to the pace it got darker and darker. I started to get worried the place was isolated. I came to a stop looking once more at the address making sure i was in the right place. I was hoping that I took a wrong turn, but unfortunately I didn’t. I got the courage to get off the car. As I got off the car I felt the breeze getting chills. “now I see why the rules said to wear something warm” It was also dark now I see why he told me to bring this. I was getting scared so I turned on the flash light. As I turned on the flashlight, I saw a pathway. I started to walk towards the pathway and I noticed that there was not more pavement it was now sand.  “Great.” I murmured under my breath. I had to take of my shoes because I was wearing heels. I walked through the pathway. I soon bumped into two pathways. I didn't know which way to go now. The my phone started to vibrate. IN a way I got relieved because it knew it was going to be him I answered “Hello!”

“Have you gotten to the pathways?”

“Yes! yes! what do I do?”

“Well I'm afraid I can't tell you exactly what way to go, but I can give you clues.”

“Are you kidding me?”

“Take it or leave it, your choice.”

“Ok fine I’ll take it!”
“First clue technology won't help you this time.”

And with that he hung up. I was now frustrated I didn’t know what to do. The clue buzzed in my head over and over. I then got it. I figured that the flashlight was a technology, so I decides to turn it off. When I turned it off I notices that something  was glowing I walked towards the glowing thing. As I got closer I noticed that it was an arrow pointing to what I’m guessing was the right path. I walked for what seemed a an hour, but it was actually 5 minutes. I soon got to this place where I saw the most beautiful mansion, it was huge. I was looking around the area and I saw the most beautiful view ever seen. The mansion was in a mountain surrounded by the beach. I was happy for a moment, but then i remembered that i didn't know what I was in for. I then got another call. I answered it knowing already who it was.

“Hello”

“Are you already here?”

“Yes, I think I am.”

“Well you may enter. The doors will soon open”

The doors opened revealing the most beautiful house the house looked cozy as well. As I walked in all kinds of balloons dropped and colorful confetti went everywhere. I was confused, but excited then I heard the words

“Congratulations you have completed the challenge.”

“What?What is going on?”

“You have won 1,000 million dollars.”
