'They're fighting again.' I thought as my parents argued downstairs. 'They forgot about my birthday again'.
It continued on for so long I forgot how many hours I heard them argue and suddenly, it all became quiet. The atmosphere has become uncomfortable and the feeling of curiosity overwhelmed me.
I sat up from my position and waited if they were whispering. I heard none and opened my door. I looked both sides if there were in their room but no lights were open and no doors ajar.
I walked down the hallway and my way to the top of the stairs. I sat on top of the first stair and waited for any noise to come out downstairs.
None. It was strange that they were suddenly silent. The feeling of dread suddenly came to me and I rushed downstairs and into the kitchen where they usually fight.
My eyes widened and I screamed. I stumbled back clumsily and fell on my bottom. The sight I saw was horrifying.
There they were, my parents were hanged and stabbed multiple times and blood gushing out of their stab wounds.
Fear overwhelming me, I didn't notice the figure hiding in the shadows. The figure silently approached behind me and whispered into my ear...
"Behind you" And with fear and trepidation, I slowly but fearfully turned my head and saw the murderer of my parents.
I was about to scream when he covered my nose and mouth with a handkerchief.
I was slowly losing my consciousness and before I blacked out, he was smirking with a tantalizing glint in his eyes. I feared for my life but I was already unconscious. I fear that I will die on my birthday.
