The creaking sound of the door penetrated in my ear as I turned to look at the door, but only to see it closed.
I heard the door creak open,I guess. My ear wasn’t malfunctioning or was it? I shrugged it off and made my way to the kitchen,I was actually heading to the kitchen before I heard the creaking of the door.
I opened the fridge and grabbed an orange juice,that’s my favorite actually and began sipping slowly from it as I tapped my foot on the floor.
Today has been such a hectic day for me, packing all our stuffs into the new house, arranging and cleaning the house. Urgggh,I nearly lost it.
Mom, Dad and my three little siblings went out to take a lap round the street,I was just too tired to join them so I decided to stay at home.
Forgive my manners,let me do a little introduction of myself. I’m Emma Watson by name, and I’m just 18yrs,I have three other little siblings,Ava who is 15, Cooper who is 11 and Baby who is 3yrs,she’s the baby of the house just like her name. We actually moved in to a new house today cos of some issue I wouldn’t wanna spill out now.
Enough,you already know much about me,so let’s stop here hmm!.
I smiled and turned my face to the other side.
“Huh? What’s that?”I asked rhetorically as the kitchen window opened roughly and closed back with a loud sound, almost scaring the hell outta me.
“Oh jeez!!”I muttered, realizing that it maybe the handwork of the strong wind.
As I continued sipping my juice,I began thinking about how life have dealt with us, imagine being rich then all of the sudden you becomes a pauper huh? Now we’re living in this pit hole. It might not be a pit hole to you, but it is for me cos I know the kind of house I was living in back then,and not this Sh|tty place. Well,not like I have a choice though, Life has it’s way to teach us some certain things.
Throwing the empty can of juice in the bin,I made I way out of the kitchen, stretching my right arm on the process.
“The heck? They’ve been away for hours!”I couldn’t help but scream when my eyes caught the wall clock. It was already 8PM in the night. I guess I couldn’t notice cos of the lights in the room.
I rolled my eyeball at no one in particular as I slumped on the couch tiredly.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
“Emma!!”
“Emma!!”
“Emma!!”
I heard someone call my name in my dream, but then I felt a hand on my thighs while the name kept echoing in my ear, flicking my eyes opened I got to understand that it wasn’t a dream.
Someone actually did call my name while tapping my thighs,but look now,no one is in the living room.
“Oh wait,is it Ava?”I thought inwardly. I knew she’s the only one who can play some stupid and annoying tricks on me, she’s so silly,with the thought that it was Ava,I got up with rage.
“Ava!!!”I screamed out her name,but got no response.
I could only hear my voice echoing back to me in the room,but why would my voice echo? The living room was well furnished,so it wasn’t empty. As clearly as I can remember,a voice echoes only in an empty room or kind of,so what was happening,and as usual,I brushed it off.
I’m not really the type to get worried cos of some random things Yunno,you can tag me weird,but that’s exactly who I am.
Getting tired and bored of staying in the room,I decided to explore the house. Didn’t know my parents and siblings were gonna take much time outside the house,only God knows what they’re doing outside this late!
There was light all over the house,so nothing to worry about as I made my way to the hallway,only to be greeted by the meowing sound of a cat. The heck!! “We just cleaned the whole house hours ago,so were was the cat coming from?”i lamented with a pouted lips.
I shook my head and decided to go look for the cat, maybe it lost it’s way since there wasn’t any gate in our house,the poor cat must have.. damnit,the owner will be freaking worried.
I traced the direction were the sound of the cat was coming from as I began heading towards that particular direction.
The More I walked, the More deeper the sound becomes, getting me confused. I was so lost in finding the cat until I stepped on a slippery stuff, looking down at it,my eyes grew wide instantly.
It was fresh blood!!!
“Oh No!!!”I freaked out, falling on my butt, while staring at the fresh blood on the floor with wide eye.
I was still seated on the floor,my legs trembling so much until I began hearing footsteps behind me,at each step the person took,my breath kept pitching and pitching.
I was already getting damned scared. I closed my eyes tightly as the footsteps kept coming closer,the sound of it echoing loudly in my ear. I was still rooted on my spot,not knowing what to do,where to go or how I was going to escape when the lights began shaking so badly.
“No!! This is not how I’m gonna die!! I can’t die this way!! No!!!”
As I thought about that,my heart began palpitating and I could feel my palm become sweaty,my throat ran dry instantly as fear took the better part of me.
Exhaling heavily and with eyes filled with so much determination,I stood up and made to run probably to run outside and shout for help,when I felt a heavy thunder struck,I closed back my eyes hurriedly in fear, breathing heavily.
Time froze, everything froze as the only thing I could hear was the beats of my poor heart which kept racing crazily cos of fear.
Does this mean I’m saved? Did God send his Angels over to me? I couldn’t help but ask myself inwardly as I couldn’t hear the footsteps again.
Opening my eyes slowly but steadily,I found myself in a different room, different kinds of human skull, blood covered in every corner of the room and the smell emanating from the dead bodies lying all over the room.
I began trembling hard again as I felt a liquid running down my legs.
I peed on myself!!! Where the heck was I? How did I get in there? My eyes began roaming round the room in a slow motion and it felt like the room was rotating with me in it,I could feel my head trying to explode as I tried to figure out what was happening.
My eyes glistened happily and I suddenly felt a little hope of escaping when I saw an exit door, rushing madly towards the door,the door closed immediately I was about rushing out, making me fall roughly on the floor again.
I looked up to the door slowly when I saw a frightening figure right before me.
“Arrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! Mommy!!!!!!!!”
