I accidentally saw my daughter-in-law throw an old brown suitcase into a deep lake: it immediately seemed very strange to me, and when I pulled the suitcase out of the water, I was horrified by what was inside 😲🫣
I was on my way home after a completely routine medical checkup. Nothing serious, just a regular visit, so I was sitting calmly in the back seat of the taxi, looking out the window. At one point, on a nearby street, I noticed a car I recognized well. It was my daughter-in-law Maya’s car.
That immediately made me suspicious. Their home and her workplace were in a completely different direction, and this area was remote and almost deserted. At first I thought I might be mistaken, but the license plate matched. To clear up my doubts, I decided to call her.
— Maya, hi dear, where are you?
She answered almost immediately. Her voice was strange, tense, as if she were trying to sound calm but wasn’t succeeding.
— I’m at home. I want to bake a cake, — she said.
Instinctively, I looked out the window again and saw her car a little farther ahead. At that moment, I realized she was lying. I was about to tell her that I could see her car, but I felt something unpleasant inside and decided not to give myself away.
— Great, then I’ll come by this evening, — I said as if nothing were wrong.
— Okay, I’ll be waiting, — she replied and hung up almost immediately.
I put my phone away and asked the taxi driver to follow that car. At that moment, I was sure she had a lover and was going to a secret meeting.
We drove for about ten minutes. Maya’s car turned toward an old bridge by the lake and stopped. It was a place people rarely visited, especially during the day. I saw her get out of the car, look around, and open the trunk.
With difficulty, she pulled out a large, old brown suitcase. Maya looked around once more, walked to the edge of the bridge, and threw the suitcase into the water with a sharp motion.
I sat in the taxi and couldn’t understand what had just happened. If it was just trash, why drive so far and throw it into the lake instead of a regular dumpster? It made no sense.
I waited until Maya drove away. Then I paid the taxi driver and went down to the water. The suitcase had already been carried away by the current, but I managed to spot it near the shore. I went into the water, grabbed the handle, and with great effort pulled it onto the land.
When I opened the suitcase, I was overcome with real terror at what I saw inside 😲😱 Continued in the first comment 👇
