I woke up to the sun streaming down my face, looking at little dust particles that looked like little specks of diamonds. I looked around, and suddenly remembered where I was.

I was at my dads house, living with a new mom, and somewhere in a small town.

"Honey, breakfast is ready." My dad yelled from downstairs. "Its your favorite." I could hear him smiling.

I grumbled and got out of bed, slipping on my robe and heading downstairs putting my hair in a messy bun.

The kitchen was majestic. It had shiny, marbled tiles filling the whole floor. All the appliances were stainless steel and sparkly.

I was going to get my breakfast when, my step mom decided to but in, "Jennifer, the robe isn't appropriate for eating breakfast. Go take shower and put some clothes on." She said in a demanding voice.

I looked at my dad for helped, but he just agreed, "Honey, Emily is right. Pajamas is not a proper breakfast outfit."

I wanted to punch him in the parts where it hurts and stick a broomstick up his- I stopped myself before I decided to swear more.

I went up to my room, took a quick shower and put on some jeans and a yellow t-shirt. I raced down the stairs hoping that my breakfast wasn't cold.

It was, and to make it worse.

My step mom was smiling.

I grabbed my pancakes, totally ignoring my parents and sat at the table thinking about my life.

I was just done eating breakfast when my dad said, "I'm leaving for work! Be back at 9. I love you Jenny." He said sincerely.

I gave him a small smile and went up into my room. To ignore my step mom.

I rummaged through my staircase, when I thought I heard someone whispering, "Come here. This is her." I dropped my clothes and looked around the room, I didn't find anything.

I continued getting change and went to discover the rest of the house.

I went downstairs and went out the back door. I was led to about half and acre of bright, green grass with trees and flowers everywhere. It looked like I was in some fairytale. I slowly walked out admiring the sun in my face. I spun a little bit, enjoying this freedom. I decided to discover some more.

I followed the all the way to the backyard, passing by trees and flowers all lined up in a perfect row on both sides. I walked for a couple of minutes when I got to this huge patch of land that had yellow daisy's surrounding it and a stone bench in the middle right next to a birdbath.

I admired it and sat down at the bench listening to the birds chirping. I closed my eyes and decided I would go here, whenever my life got to hectic at home.

Once I was done sitting, I decided to see what else was around here. This house was filled with a bunch of mysteries, I thought to myself.

When I walked a little more there was a bunch of bushes crowding a small space. I decided to go through the bushes to see what they were hiding.

I saw a flexi-glass dome and I looked inside it and it looked like an old warehouse. There was a desk, a fireplace, and some tools.

In other words, it was scary.

I was deciding to go back to my room when suddenly I heard rustling in the bushes and someone grabbed me. I screamed really loud but he put his hand over my mouth.

I bit him, and when that didn't work, I kicked him, but he just set me down on the bench and said cryptically, "You don't want to go there little one. Go back to your mom's its not safe. They'll get you." He murmured, "Just like they got me."

I panicked, "What do you mean? Who are they? Why is it not safe?" But once I was done, he mysteriously disappeared. I looked everywhere but he was nowhere to be found.

Since I was scared enough for one day, I raced back into the sanctuary of my summer home. Once I got in, I bumped into someone.

It was my step mom and believe it or not, she looked worried. "Wow Jennifer, are you okay? You looked like you saw a ghost."

I nodded my head, quickly said "I'm sorry." And raced up the stairs when I decided to ask her a question that I didn't know if I wanted the answer to,

"Emily."

"Yes."

"Is there anyone else living here, except you and dad. Like maybe a old man."

She froze for a minute, but then composed herself, "Of course. We have a landscaper named Bobby, he is old. That's probably who you saw, and you said you were outside did you see anything?"

"I don't know." Honestly, I didn't like sharing what I saw to someone who probably thought I was crazy.

"Okay, just be careful. This is a big house with a big yard, and your dad would kill me if anything happened to you. Now, I'm going to be at the store. Matilida, our maid is going to be here." She said then went out the door.

Matilida seemed nice enough, she was small and old with curly gray hair but bright gray eyes that looked stormy. I decided to go up to my room and get out my laptop.

I opened it, and you needed a password to connect to the internet, so I decided to go downstairs to get Matilda.

She was in the study, dusting my dads fireplace, "Sorry to interrupt, but do you know the wi-fi password?" I asked cautiously.

She looked surprised, "Of course honey. Let me get it." She said, then rushed out of the room like I was poison.

'Looks like no one likes me' I murmured to myself. When I heard someone reply,

"We like you. We like you very much." This was the third time I heard those voices and decided to investigate where they were coming from. I looked around my dads study, which wasn't big and heard murmuring by the fireplace.

"Hello." I asked, "Can anyone hear me?"

The voices replied, "We can hear you! We can hear you!" they kept repeating it like a mantra.

Curiosity got the best of me and I asked, "What are your names?"

"We don't have names. But we like you, come and play with us." There voice sounded like a snake talking in those movies.

I literally thought I should check myself into a mental hospital, because I was talking to voices. I was just about to reply when she came back, "Here you are honey. This is the password." She gave me the piece of paper, "Have fun."

I said my thanks and looked up the symptoms of schizophrenia. Because I was certain that I have it. I looked up it and decided that I didn't have any other symptoms, so I just decided to ignore them and get take a long, long, nap.


Hoped you liked it!
