Your reward of good deeds will be given by God after death.

I was doing research work about haunted houses.
One day, Jonathan told me, " There was founded in these woods."
So I came here to locate that house. One month has passed. I didn't find it. My canned foods are finished. It was a dense forest area. Even, woodcutters don't come here. Therefore, there were many fruits. Those fruits made me alive.
I searched for a way to remove myself from the woods but after forty or fifty minutes, I found myself in the same spot where I began.
I understood that I could not go outside from so....
I began to find a suitable living place.
I carried a small camp and bio-toilet with me. I set those up there.

Another two months passed. There were I take heavy foods.
One day, I discovered a tree. A single leaf of that tree was enough
to arrest your hunger at least for 8 hours! Can you imagine that? I also understood that this was not a simple woodland. It had some speciality.
I must discover that.

Today I just woke up in the morning.
An old lady came to my camp and asked me with authority, " Who are you?"
Suppose this is her territory.
I am not a fool. So I kept my calmness and told her, " Please be seated."
She smiled and thanked me for the offer and repeated the question, " Who are you?"
I counter-question, "Who are you?"
-“I used to live here.”
-"When?"
-"300 years ago."
-"Then, are you a spirit?"
-"Spirit, but not bad spirit."
" Can you tell me...", I stopped.
-" Why are you hesitating?"
-"There was a haunted house. Do you know that?"
-"I was the owner of that lovely house."
-"But I couldn't find that house!"
She kept silent for a few moments and told me slowly, " I did some good deeds." Stops for a few minutes and said," As a gift God gave me a chance to create a planet. I took my favourite house from here to there." She stopped.
"Can you help me...?"
"You want to go home. Right?"
" I will send you to your home within a second. But before that, you have to give me a word."
I got a bit nervous.
I smiled and told, "Don't be nervous. If you do some noble work, you will be rewarded by Him heavily for that."
She took me like a toy and immediately I found myself on our roof.
" Have a nice journey, dear. "
Before giving any reaction, I found her nowhere.
